Chapter 127: Situation

"So, you still refused?" In a car in the parking lot, Kapoor sat in the driver's seat and looked helplessly at Eric on the co-pilot.
Thinking of the scene, Eric sighed and nodded.
Although Spielberg did not show any dissatisfaction when he left, he only regretted that he could contact him if he changed his mind. But Eric still knows that he is offended by the famous Jewish director. This can be seen from Spielberg’s assistant looking at his ignorance. .
If Spielberg used to express the intention to purchase copyright through others, Eric’s resignation is nothing, this time the rejection is much more serious, and Spielberg personally came forward, this is a very sincere expression, even It is equivalent to sending a favor to the door. If the sale is completed, Eric will not only get a rich copyright transfer fee, but also get Spielberg's goodwill. This connection may help him a lot.
But he can't be a human being, even if it is a very heavy human sentiment, it will involve a very important piece of his future career layout.
Jurassic Park involves a huge industrial chain worth tens of billions of dollars. Although Eric never thought about swallowing, at least he must make sure that he can get the most delicious piece from this big cake in the future. Once the copyright is sold, he will completely lose the dominance of the project, and at most he can only share some leftovers after someone else eats a lot of meat.
"Eric, would you like to hear my advice?" Kapoor asked.
"I know what you are going to say, immediately contact Spielberg and sell the film copyright to him, right? Kapoor, there is no room for negotiation, I will not sell it."
Kapoor touched his head in distress: "Eric, have you thought about your situation? You are completely in a state of being alone. You seem to be familiar with the high-level of the film companies, but this is completely It is based on pure interests. The reason why the other party is so good to you now is because all of your previous films have been very successful and brought great benefits to them. But no one will continue to succeed. And then once you fail, it's when they turn their faces."
Eric from the channel: "I feel that for a long time, I will not experience the failure you said, I am very confident in my own film."
"There are many factors that fail, and may even be artificial." Kapoor continued: "Eric, think about it, compared to your strength, you get too much. Once or twice or three or four. It’s okay, they just think you are a lucky little guy, but if you keep doing this, the giants will suppress you at all costs and even ruin you. Like the lions on the prairie, they will allow the dog to walk. They feed on the rest of their food, but they definitely don't allow a weak hyena to take more than the lion."
Eric opened his mouth and couldn't think of any rebuttal. He knew that Kapoor said these words, but he still hoped that he could find some solid allies, so that in the future he might encounter pressure, he would Will not fall into a completely isolated situation.
Spielberg’s desire to get the movie copyright of Jurassic Park is an excellent opportunity to make a good deal. Once he sells the copyright, the screenwriter of the film will definitely not be able to get rid of him. Spielberg may Connaught that the fireflies can participate in the investment, these provide conditions for him to contact Spielberg and establish a good personal relationship, but Eriks thought to go, still not reconciled.
Kapoor noticed the struggle and hesitation in Eric's expression and continued to persuade: "Eric, do you know that your firefly is most like a movie company in Hollywood?"
Eric raised his head curiously. Kapoor did not sell the lawsuit: "The most like the original United States, when Chaplin and several other famous directors founded Lianmei, the company is positioned as a pure production. The company, which specializes in providing excellent films to other giants, is very similar to the fireflies that don’t have any distribution channels. As a result, the movie giants with perfect distribution channels have survived except for the thundering thunder and lightning. However, Lianmei, which was originally called with other giants, has become a subsidiary of MGM. This is because the United States originally focused too much on the production business and neglected to expand its distribution channels.
Eric heard that Kapoor said that his dream factory was the most familiar in his mind. It seems that history is always strikingly similar.
And later generations often see in some economic articles that the word 'channel is king' is indeed a famous saying. In the memory of previous lives, some second-line movie companies with better development in Hollywood, such as Lionsgate and Miramax, are I started the distribution. Spielberg’s DreamWorks and later the new DreamWorks can only float between the giants of Universal, Paramount and Disney. Sometimes it’s hard to break up for a one-hundred percent dispute. It’s a bit of a beat.
"And now the fireflies are inferior to the original United States, and there is almost no distribution capability. It is too simple for movie giants who monopolize most distribution channels to pack you. So you need some key moments now. Can really help your allies, once a bad situation occurs, someone can help you to scream and match, instead of being in a situation of isolation and helplessness. It is impossible for a dog to make friends with a lion, but there is no gap between the same kind. In this case, Spielberg is delivered to the door, and you are still going out, which is simply unwise."
If Eric is an indigenous native of this time and space, after Kapoor’s persuasion with deception and intimidation, he will surely give up Jurassic Park, but he is not.
"Well, Kapoor, I understand." Eric nodded and looked like a teacher.
Kapoor delighted his big brother to Eric: "Take me to Spielberg, don't be afraid that the other person will feel that you are fickle, Eric, you are young, have this privilege, Pilberg won't mind."
Eric took over the bricks and Motorola put a cushion in his hand: "Kapoor, I just said that I understand the importance of the distribution channel to fireflies. I did not say that I would sell the copyright of Jurassic Park to Spielberg. ""
Fighting -
Sitting in the back seat, quietly listening to the two people talking, Virginia couldn't help but laugh out, realized that she was in a state of disobedience, and quickly grabbed her mouth.
Kapoor seemed to be stunned, staring at Eric with his eyes wide open, and eventually he was disappointed to get back his big brother: "With you, I can say what I can say. Jeffrey is right. You are a stubborn and paranoid young man."
"Don't worry, Kapoor, I have my own plan, you think about it, I am an English-American, I still have British citizenship. So even if I have a good relationship with Spielberg, it is not possible to enter. Jewish circle."
Eric did not consider these things. In the several movies of the fireflies this year, his personal three films have already been settled, one for Colombia and the other two for Fox according to the previous contract.
Although the other three films have not yet confirmed the issuer, he has received a lot of intent information from the six majors, and he can sign the issuance contract at any time if he wishes.
If all of these movies can be sold at the box office like the previous ones, then they can accumulate a large amount of original funds for him. Even if one or two of them are not ideal because of the butterfly effect, the box office will not hurt him. At most, they will only earn less. After all, in addition to Colombia’s big-headed throwing of $40 million in "Dark War", several other plans. The investment in the film is less than 10 million, and even if there is only one explosion like the previous life, he can recover all the investment and make a profit.
After this year, as Kapoor said, the giants will surely realize that he has taken too much and will try his best to suppress him and squeeze the benefits he deserves, but at that time he already had enough original accumulation and he also responded. There will be no power to fight.
Not to mention that the six conferences will not really hold a group to suppress him, even if this less than a percentage of the rate really happens, then slowly recharge your batteries. Moreover, Eric does not believe that if he has the ability to bring great benefits to the other party, the giants will reach a consensus for a long time to deal with him. People are distracted, and the three monks may not have water to drink, let alone six. One!
"Kappl, come here tonight, the car borrows from me, you go to drive me."
Kapoor glanced at the girl sitting in the back seat of the car and shook his head. "No, Eric, the car can't be borrowed, let alone you still drink. I will send you home."
"Kappl, don't be so real, don't think that you can shave your head as a light bulb." Eric whispered silently, and Virginia, sitting in the back seat, had already lowered his head with shame.
Kapoor smiled and said: "You misunderstood, I am not so ignorant, I mean I will send you back, I only drink a few mouthfuls of champagne, more importantly, I am very experienced in the practice of walking the dog, I was very It’s my skill to get to my first employer. I don’t want to go to the public news for your two lace news tomorrow morning. Eric, Beverly Hills or Malibu?

"My home, Malibu is too far."
"Well, then you are in the back seat and the front row may be photographed."
Eric changed from good to good in the back seat. Kapoor started the car and left the underground parking lot. He just got on the road and several cars obviously followed. After a while, Kapoor looked at the rearview mirror and smiled: "A total of three paparazzi cars have come up, but fortunately there are many goals on the party, or else there will be a long tail."
