Chapter 86: First rider

After the champagne is finished, the party officially begins. As a plus video of the surrounding videotape, it can bring a billion-dollar profit to Fox's movie project, even if Fox's current president, Barry Diller, had to attend the "Fengyue" celebration.
In addition to the members of the "Fengyue" crew, Fox also invited dozens of big and small stars to come to the show, the party scene can be described as star-studded. However, after all, there were many big people in the scene, and the banquet halls of hundreds of people were orderly. The guests gathered in groups of three and five and talked about their own topics.
"Eric, the Super Bowl Trailer, the clarification department is really too conservative, and I promise that Fox will fully cooperate with you when your lower film is released."
Don't be next time, this time you can count on the declaration and reimburse me.
Eric’s heart groaned and his face smiled:
Mr. Diller, don’t mention it again. The $1.5 million Super Bowl advertising fee is indeed a big expense, and Fox’s conservative is nothing. ""
Barry Diller smiled, and sure enough.
This old fox!
The topic was once again transferred to Eric's next film. After "Fengyue", Eric's next movie, although not even seen in the shadows, was taken for granted by Fox in the summer.
This year's summer file can be described as a large collection, Warner's "Batman", Paramount's "Raiders of the Lost Ark 3", Colombia's "Ghostbusters 2", these are destined to be big box office.
Fox has shifted too much attention to the development of the TV network, resulting in more than a dozen films produced this year in the film, ranking first in the six.
In order not to be the bottom of the film's performance, Fox is destined to fully support Eric's film, especially after the success of "Fengyue".
And the summer file is a big deal, it is not too easy to get a high box office. Eric couldn't take the sequel to the already-famous "Little Devil's Home" sequel to the summer file to compete with these big movies. After thinking for a long time, it was decided that a thought had been generated before.
"The next film has a preliminary plot outline, and I plan to invite Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise. It will be a rivalry for two men."
Barry Diller’s eyes twitched slightly. If successful, with only two Toms plus Eric’s box office appeal, the movie’s box office guarantee would be at least $100 million. In addition to the end of the "Little Ghosts 2", there are three big movies in a year, Fox's performance in the film is no longer blameless, he can also confidently develop the TV network.
"Eric, if you want to invite two Toms, the pay of the two people is no less than 10 million US dollars? What is your budget cost?"
Eric thought for a moment: "It should be no more than 30 million. This is a drama. There is no big scene, no special effects, and it depends on the individual of the two male protagonists. So the budget of 30 million US dollars is already very good. Loose, it is very likely to be spent."
"I heard that you just spent a lot of money to buy the studio of Steve Jobs?"
Although Barry Diller’s problem was not looking for a margin, Eric immediately understood the meaning of Barry Diller. Fox still wants to put a foot in the film investment.
"Yes, I used to make Pixar make a title LOGO for my film company. I was very satisfied after reading it. I heard that Pixar was in trouble and wanted to shoot. I just became interested in animated movies and bought it." However, the period of animated films is very long, and 3D animation is in the process of exploration, so the first animated film does not know when it will be made."
Eric ignores the helplessness of Barry Diller's face. Anyway, you turn around and I will give you drift.
Listening to the little fox in front of him, Barry Diller had to clarify the topic: "Eric, I mean, if your underlying film production is tight, Fox can take part in the investment, which can also reduce the risk. And You can rest assured that Fox will not associate investment funds with the cost of the announcement. The sharing agreement we signed before will remain unchanged."
Barry Diller confessed things, and Eric did not directly refuse. Of course, he would not let his own interests be handed down. What Eric can think of, of course, Eric can also think that if two Toms are invited to succeed, the film can't fail with the box office appeal of three people.
In the end, Eric can only perfuse: "No problem, Mr. Diller, if you need external investment, Fox is definitely my first choice."
Barry Diller also saw Eric's perfunctory, knowing that Fox's chances of getting a capital are almost zero. But he won't take any stuns like Columbia. The two sides are still in the honeymoon period of cooperation. Although they are stratified according to the previous agreement, Eric earns a little more than Fox, but Fox has taken enough from it. Enthusiastic huge profits.
I also talked about some other topics, and the two talents separated each other to socialize with others. Barry Diller just walked away, and Eric felt a lot of gaze focused on himself.
Ok, girls, give me a hug, who is the first to come and talk, the lower movie gives you a role. Eric had a little bit of thought in his mind, and he enjoyed this feeling of being noticed. After all, he is still a laity, and if he has no vanity, he still has to do something toss.
Soon he ushered in the first player.
Bald head, eight feet long, tiger back bear waist, face with a look of wretched smile, the most lying is ... ... is a man.
"Eric, you are finally back. I want to know what you think. In Julia's films, I think several of them are good, but they have been vetoed by you?"
It was hard to decide to indulge once, and Eric was helplessly pulled aside by Kapoor.
"Kappl, you don't have the illusion of being hit by hearts?"
"Ok?"
"Looking around?"
Kapoor glanced puzzledly and found that a few beautiful girls around him who were not very good at concealing their emotions stared at him badly.
Although Kapoor is a workaholic, he is still very proficient in the world. Otherwise, he can't do the career of a broker. He shrugged his shoulders: "Sorry, Eric, you are arrogant. You can't follow me." Explain that I am not practical."
Eric also wants to explain to him that most of the films that were successful in the past Julia were romantic comedies. They just took "Fengyue" and it is definitely inappropriate to take this type of movie in a short time. Take out the movies of the later generations. He thinks that the most suitable for Julia is the steel magnolia that gave Julia the Golden Globe nomination. It is a movie with a good reputation at the box office.
Unfortunately, before the inquiry, Samsung Pictures has not started this project, either it has been lost by the butterfly effect fan, or it has not started to shoot.
It is also impossible for him to write the script again. In the previous three films, he was 100% sure that the original script had not appeared yet, or that it had not had much to do with his movie, and he used it with ease. He can't guarantee this movie now.
"Kappel, wait a few more days, I am going to the writers' union to see if there are any good scripts that have been registered, and pick one for Julia."
Kapoor's mouth was pumped: "Eric, do you know how many registered scripts are written by the writers' union? Thousands of people! I feel like I am going to go to San Francisco to scouring a few tons of gold. Is that possible?"
Knowing where the gold is buried, it is easy to get rid of it. Eric just wants to check if the scriptwriter of "Steel Magnolia" has registered the script.
"Believe me, Kapoor, be patient, I will reply you soon."
Eric also made up his mind. If you can't find "Steel Magnolia", then pick one from Julia in the movie with a high box office in memory. Anyway, with Julia's current reputation, as long as the image is right, 茱Lia personally has the intention to participate in the show. No team will reject her. I believe that many production companies will not hesitate to raise their budgets.
