Chapter 209: Information is not equal

The real-life film department of DreamWorks, which later became Spielberg’s DreamWorks Pictures, the greatest value is actually in the past few years, and their most valuable series of commercial films in the future have long been instructed by Ronan. Rhode Island negotiated the film rights.
　　Toy-based movie is also a future development direction, and its value is far greater than game-based movie.
　　According to Ronan's idea, Robert successfully won the film rights of two series of toys, and the two series are related to each other. If they work well, they can achieve linkage in the film.
　　 Since he realized that Spielberg and Katzenberg wanted to take over the overseas distribution network of Embassy Pictures, Ronan has not stopped thinking about DreamWorks.
　　 Joining DreamWorks is definitely not in his consideration, unless Spielberg and other major shareholders are willing to give up absolute controlling rights.
　　 This is obviously impossible.
　　 There is no absolute controlling rights, do you enter DreamWorks and Spielberg to force internal friction?
　　 This old man looks like a good old man, but he is definitely not easy to mess with.
　　 Spielberg’s DreamWorks Pictures will soon become a cumbersome, but now it looks good in the past few years, so Ronan’s intention is to win the overseas distribution rights of several DreamWorks films.
　　 Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't get it.
　　 Because the still humble DreamWorks animation studio is his main goal.
　　 DreamWorks Pictures can only be regarded as the present, but DreamWorks Animation Studio represents the future, a future with unlimited potential.
　　 Among them, "Shrek" belongs to the most valuable part.
　　 In the concurrent projects of DreamWorks Animation Studios, "Shrek" is not the primary focus, and the larger investment in "Little Pony King" is the key project that Jeff Katzenberg focuses on.
　　 And "My Little Pony King" is more in line with the traditional Hollywood animation film aesthetics, subverting and spoofing various classic "Shrek", even DreamWorks Animation Studio did not expect a huge success later.
　　 It is also the success of "Shrek" that DreamWorks Animation Studio really determined its own style, which is the kind of spoof truth, goodness and beauty summarized by Ronan.
　　 The animation feature film of DreamWorks Animation Studio behind, the main theme is similar style.
　　 This is the right way. Let DreamWorks Animation Studio learn from Disney’s sweet and greasy truth, goodness and beauty, and Pixar Animation Studio’s laughter with tears. Maybe it will end up being four different.
　　 The most typical is the Blue Sky Studio, who has never determined its own style. Sometimes the animation feature film outside of "Ice Age" learns from DreamWorks, sometimes learns from Pixar. In the end, everyone is confused.
A few days after talking with Katzenberg, Ronan received a call from Tom Cruise, and Tom Cruise officially signed the actor contract for "Minority Report" and became the actor and actor of the film. One of the producers, and Tom Cruise had a detailed discussion with Spielberg after signing the contract. During the period, he mentioned the issue of overseas distribution of the "Minority Report". It is recommended that Embassy Pictures be the overseas distributor of the film.
　　 Spielberg just said to think about it, and then there was no news.
　　 Tom Cruise is a nominal producer after all, and his voice in distribution is very limited. Ronan cannot let his friends do more.
　　 This matter can only be so for the time being.
　　 Compared to Jeff Cassenberg, who was swept out by Walt Disney, Steven Spielberg has a deeper relationship with the six major companies.
　　 If the DreamWorks live-action film department does not plan to cooperate with Embassy Pictures, Ronan cannot force it, and will not make more efforts.
　　 He has been staring at DreamWorks Animation Studio.
On the second weekend after Ronan and Jeff Kasenberg chatted, Jeff Kasenberg invited Ronan to visit the DreamWorks Animation Studio and showed him that he had not added a soundtrack, "Shrek" with subtitles and partial scene rendering.
After watching this film, Ronan’s last worries have also been put down. This "Shrek" may be an unfinished relationship. It is somewhat different from the one in the impression, but the main plot and main characters have not changed. Basically it looks like in memory.
　　 Shrek, princess, donkey, and fire-breathing dragon have not changed.
　　 There are also a series of famous fairy tale characters that spoof and subvert.
The original plot setting of many fairy tales is not what Disney shows or after countless beautifications. For example, most of Grimm's fairy tales are not original by Brother Grimm, but the two people organize and recreate according to folk tales. Many super Large-scale things.
　　 Ronan remembered reading a professional literary academic paper. It is said that when the first edition of Grimm's fairy tales was published, the story written on it was very different from the later circulated stories.
　　 In the original "Sleeping Beauty", because Talia was stabbed by a spindle, the silver twine penetrated all her nails, and she eventually died. Faced with Talia’s death, her heartbroken father did not bury her, but instead built a house for her in the forest and put her body on a big bed inside. Later, a king was hunting. He found this house and found Talia's body inside, but he thought Talia was just asleep, so he defiled her...
　　 and Snow White.
　　 It is said that in published stories and early folklore, Bai Xue and the queen are mothers and daughters. Because the king fell in love with his daughter, the queen was extremely jealous and eventually turned into a tragedy of mother-daughter fratricide.
　　 After Bai Xue ate the poisonous apple, the encounter with the prince was even more unbearable. Why did the prince fancy Bai Xue who died of poisoning? Still love Shirayuki? Accompany you to eat and sleep
Be with Shirayuki? Because the prince is a love-necrophilia, when he did something indescribable to the corpse later, his actions were so violent that Bai Xue spit out a poisonous apple...
　　 Of course, "Shrek" can't be so subverted and spoofed, otherwise there will be no chance of being released in theaters.
After Ronan watched the movie, he chatted with Jeff Katzenberg again. Although Jeff Katzenberg was still hesitating, Ronan could see that Jeff Katzenberg was in his heart. Has been biased.
He got another message from Jeff Katzenberg. The lawyers of DreamWorks are reviewing "Shrek" very carefully, because they are worried about the film's spoof and satire about Disney movies, classic images and theme parks. Will annoy the other party and be prosecuted.
　　 Copyright has never been a small issue.
　　 This reminds Ronan of one thing. I don’t know where to read a gossip in his previous life, saying that the character of the villain Lord Falquad in the film is based on Disney’s CEO Michael Eisner.
　　 Based on the grievances between Jeff Katzenberg and Michael Eisner, this is not an exaggeration.
　　 Sometimes big people have a naive side.
　　If this is true, Katzenberg’s psychology is not difficult to understand. As a loser, he has nothing to do with Michael Eisner. There is always a channel for his anger to pour out.
　　 This movie is very exciting and suitable for all ages. The cute cartoon animation images are fun for children to watch, and the hidden adult humor can also make adults smile.
　　 No one, including Jeff Katzenberg, would have imagined that such a spoof and subversive film would explode so badly at the box office after it was released, and it would eventually become the signature of DreamWorks Animation Studios.
　　The mismatch of information is Ronan's greatest opportunity.
　　 But Katzenberg is still hesitating and considering. After all, the US$60 million investment is not as large as the US$150 million in an animated feature film by Pixar, but it is not a small figure.
　　 On the second day of visiting the DreamWorks Animation Studio, Ronan made a special trip to the DreamWorks headquarters in Glendale to visit Spielberg, and once again asked Embassy Pictures and DreamWorks Pictures about the possibility of overseas distribution cooperation.
　　 This time, Spielberg did not hesitate or hesitate, he had obviously considered it clearly and directly rejected Ronan’s proposal for cooperation.
Perhaps just like the more conservative movies he made, Spielberg became more conservative as he got older. He would rather accept the exploitation of the six major rival companies in order to maintain stable income with less risk than he would like Cooperate with new forces emerging in the circle.
　　 With the strength of DreamWorks Pictures and Spielberg's identity and status, Ronan could not force the other party to cooperate with Embassy Pictures.
　　Commercial cooperation originally required you to love me, otherwise, let alone win-win, it may end up hurting each other.
　　 Fortunately, DreamWorks Animation Studios are still forging ahead, and Katzenberg is also ambitious.
Spielberg did not achieve his goal here~EbookFREE.me~ Ronan was not discouraged, and continued to contact DreamWorks Animation Studios. As the overseas box office of "Human Clear Project 2" continues to rise, it will also let Kasenber Grid increased confidence in Embassy Pictures.
　　 And it won’t take long, "Human Removal Project 2" will also be released offline in many overseas markets.
News from the DreamWorks Animation Studio has also spread. Katzenberg and Spielberg had a serious disagreement at an internal meeting, but the DreamWorks Animation Studio is within Katzenberg’s power. Pilberg couldn't intervene for a while.
　　 From the beginning of its establishment, this three-big-big-ti-mate model has a great hidden danger, and people's desire for money and power will gradually enlarge the hidden danger.
　　 Before Thanksgiving, Ronan got news that DreamWorks Animation Studios and Universal Pictures once again started contacting, but the content of the negotiations was only the animated feature film "My Little Pony King", not including "Shrek".
　　 This is undoubtedly good news. Jeff Katzenberg is already considering Ronan’s proposal.
　　 Although it is only possible to get the overseas distribution rights, this is "Shrek"!
　　By the way, North American distribution copyrights can also find a way, after all, DreamWorks will soon be separated.
Ronan has been paying attention to this aspect, and his contact with Katzenberg has never been broken, but other aspects of work have to be carried out. Before Thanksgiving, the "Twilight Saga: Twilight" was delayed due to several revisions. ", officially published and listed.
