Chapter 515

Wald Pictures.

"Mr. Feich, I have sent the income report of Tomb Raider to your email address, and you can check it at any time." Secretary Diana said.

Upon hearing this, Kevin Fitch, who was sitting behind the desk, nodded.

"I'll see the report data later. After all, it is a movie jointly produced and released by us and Paramount. We enjoy 35% of the full copyright income. By the way, please remind them to pay more attention and not be cheated by Paramount." Kevin Feige reminded.

"Yes, sir."

Secretary Diana is also a senior Hollywood worker. She knows that major film companies have a series of tricks in accounting and finance. A sudden operation can damage your interests.

It's hard to defend!

Secretary Diana quickly left.

Immediately afterwards, the company's production department head and well-known director Zach Schneider walked in again.

"Zach, you're here. Is it for the Shark Beach movie?" Kevin Feige put down his work.

Zach waved his hand and smiled, "That's not. The roadshow of the movie "Shaw Beach" has ended, and the publicity popularity of mainstream media has cooled down. How much box office the movie can get in the end depends on the audience's reputation."

"Then are you here..." Kevin Feige asked.

Zach sat down, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since the release of the Shark Beach movie, many representatives from the film companies such as Warner, Columbia, Disney have come to me and have made appointments with me. But to be honest, those scripts are really honest."

"So, I've saved two scripts myself recently."

The words fell.

Kevin Feige took two scripts and read them carefully.

Script 1: "I'm Not Sparta";

Script 2: "Beautiful Girls' Team";

.........

In the afternoon of that day.

At this moment, Zhuke, who is in the editing room of Wald Pictures, has also obtained the script of "I Am Not Sparta" and "The Beautiful Girls' Agents".

After a while...

"Diana, Kevin Feige is asking you to come and ask me for my opinion, right?" Zucker frowned.

“Yes, boss.”

Secretary Diana said: "The script of "The Beautiful Girls" comes from the comics of the DC company under Warner. If you want to shoot it, you must obtain the DC license. But, you know, the relationship between our company and Warner is very ordinary."

Is Wald Pictures’ relationship with Warner just average?

no!

There have been more than once conflicts between the two in terms of schedule competition, and even fierce battles in media and public opinion. Even if the relationship between the two is not a great revenge of life and death, it is definitely not much better.

The movie "Beautiful Girls' Team"?

"It's the movie similar to the Chinese comic "Soul Street", which often summons tall warriors more than ten meters tall?" Zhu Ke thought of some of the movies that he had watched in his previous life.

Not only that, among the various short videos on uc and B, the movie clips of "The Beautiful Girls' Team" are often screened.

"Beautiful Girls' Team" is undoubtedly a movie with top special effects. The picture is very beautiful, but... the movie box office is a huge loss!

"A real bad movie title ruined a movie."

In those years, good movies that were almost missed because of a "bad name" have a lot of existence.

"Three Idiots Make a Fight in Bollywood", "My God", "Three Billboards", "Friendly Gold", "Mao Liar", etc. Many viewers don't have much desire to watch movies when they see the title. In fact, these movies and TV series are indeed rare and good works.

"The movie "Beautiful Girls" is definitely an indelible stain among Zach Schneider's many film and television works. However, there are problems with the plot of this movie itself." Zucker filtered a lot of things in his mind.

meditation......

Zucker looked at the secretary lady Diana in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Tell Kevin that the opinions I gave have quashed the project of "Beautiful Girls" and "I'm Not Sparta" can be projected."

“Yes, boss.”

Although Zhuke only gave opinions, it was very important and almost the final result.

The movie "I'm Not Sparta", it is the same movie as "Sparta 300 Warriors", and its main plot is almost the same as "Sparta 300 Warriors".

However!

"Spartan 300 Warriors" is a historical film full of bloody, killing, and adrenaline rush;

The movie "I'm Not Sparta" is a complete comedy.

.........

Two days later.

A guest came to Zhuke's house.

It was director Zach Schneider!

"Zach, do you have to film the movie "Beautiful Agents"?" Zucker frowned.

"Yes, sir."

Zach said solemnly: "Mr. Wald, I have known you for several years. You know, sometimes I am a very stubborn person and will not be easily convinced, including you."

Zucker sighed.

Sometimes, Zhuke really wants to scold these directors, but they are too paranoid and they don’t look back at all without hitting the wall.

In a word, Zucker is completely unfavorable to the box office prospects of "The Beautiful Agents".

Why do you have to shoot even though you know you will lose money?

Zhuke pondered for a few seconds and said in a deep voice: "Zach, I reject your proposal again. I will not agree to the project establishment of "Beautiful Girls Agents". Let's take a step back and say, even if I agree to the project establishment, do you think Warner's DC Comics will authorize Wald Pictures?"

dc comics company has covered up its comic copyrights tightly, so how could it easily authorize it to other film companies?

Besides, with the distractions between Wald Pictures and Warner, it is impossible to obtain the authorization for comic adaptation!

Zhuke raised his eyebrows and asked suddenly: "Zach, tell me the truth, has Warner ever contacted you?"

Huna is optimistic about Zach Schneider, but it's not been a day or two.

"Watchman", "Superman: Man of Steel", "Superman vs. Batman: Dawn of Justice" and other movies are all created by Zach Schneider and Warner.

Zhuke guessed that they had already had some controversy, especially after the popularity of the movie "Shark Beach".

what to do?

Of course it's a blessing for him!

If Zach Schneider wants to film "The Beautiful Girls", he can only cooperate with Warner.

"You don't have to worry about it. You are the director, not a slave who is kept by someone. You have your own choice. If you go to Warner to work with them on this movie, I won't object. Of course, I have no reason to object." Zhuke's smile was so sunny and gentle.

"This, this..."

At this moment, Zach was very moved. He was also a little ashamed.

Go ~

Go quickly!

Even though I know it is a pit, why not cheat Warner?

Zach Schneider has also become a little arrogant in recent years, and Zucker intends to teach him a lesson to let him know how good Wald Pictures is.

I have to say that sometimes Zhu Ke is cunning and insidious.

Zhuke himself is a little incompatible with Warner. In addition, Zhuke holds a large number of Marvel superhero copyrights and also holds shares in Marvel. With Warner and DC Comics, he will definitely be a competitor in the future.

After a wave of Warner, Zucker said there was no pressure.
