Chapter 264: Competition between the two markets


Hank Herman is about to take over as president of Warner Pictures, while Doug Walter is moving to the head office.However, this kind of change in the top management of the film company is basically not concerned by others except for people in the industry.Disney is extremely concerned about the situation of Warner Pictures, and the only Hollywood giant that can compete with Disney is Warner Pictures, the former world's number one film company.And Warner Pictures has changed its head, and it is not clear whether it is good or bad for Disney.However, Robert Iger knows Hank and Herman well, and the two have worked together at Touchstone Pictures.He knows Hank Herman's talent very well, and it can be said that after his old rival Doug Walter, the most suitable person to lead Warner Pictures is Hank Herman."

It seems that the senior management of Time Warner will not be so easily dizzy, and now Warner Pictures will be difficult to deal with."

Robert Iger sighed."

Don't worry, Bob, it's going to be a long time before Hank Herman takes over Warner Pictures, but I've heard that the Chinese director talks to Doug Walter and Hank Herman for a long time."

Disney Vice President William Jericho said."

Hmph" Robert Iger snorted coldly: "Doug Walter thinks that just that Chinese man can stop the footsteps of the Avengers heroes, what tricks can a mere bat play?"

”"I don't think Batman can be underestimated, after the promotion of Time Warner, Batman is already a well-known superhero in the United States and even the world, plus the last series of movies broke one billion dollars worldwide, and the sequel is still a bit threatening."

William Jericho voiced his concerns.Robert Iger also felt depressed, although Disney is the First Media Group, but Time Warner wants to promote something, Disney can't even stop it.The other party doesn't bird them at all, why give up my own interests to meet your Disney needs?

I can't make any money" and the Chinese film market is also a big problem, people in this land are particularly easy to be fooled, with a patriotic theme as the call, the Dark Knight's competitiveness will be particularly strong, and the scene of Avengers 3: Infinity War over there is not very good!

”William Jericho points out another place where Disney has a weak heart.Robert Iger is also helpless, although Disney has been entering that market since the last century, but after so many years, it has never been able to completely digest and absorb that land.Unlike the island country next door, it's like a Hollywood backyard where you can go shopping at any time.Since entering the second decade of the 21st century, the opposite market has grown rapidly, and now the volume has reached six or seven percent of North America.Based on the huge population base and potential market, it seems not impossible to become the world's largest ticket warehouse in the future.Hollywood has long been aiming at this piece of fat, but the strange thing is that they have done so much planning and layout, but the share of Hollywood movies in the opposite market is getting lower and lower, and the rate of decline is terrifying.Robert Iger understands that it is not that Hollywood movies are declining, but that the films on the other side are growing too fast, especially after the emergence of the young director named Bryant Lee, the film industry seems to have opened the second vein of Ren Du, and all kinds of excellent films have emerged in an endless stream, and some have even gone abroad and achieved good results."

You say, are we going to use our relationship to mess with that arrogant director?"

William Jericho asked.Doug Walter shook his head and said: "No, absolutely not, that director seems to be the object of the big scissors opposite, as soon as we do it, the other party will definitely be aware of it, and it will be difficult to do it then!"

”"What about the business side?

We're going to reach out to Penguin Pictures and Light Pictures and get them to give up that Director Lee," William Jericho stopped halfway through, and he knew he had a bad idea.Penguin Pictures is backed by the towering tree of the Penguin Group, which is not Disney at all, and it looks like it is not as large as Penguin's Light Pictures, what price do you have to pay for letting them give up Li He?

Even if they give up, I'm afraid that Penguin Pictures next door will happily announce that Director Li is completely on the chariot of Penguin Pictures.And how to fulfill the benefits promised to Light Pictures?

Will competitors obstruct it?

is still the same sentence, Li He understood from the beginning that in this circle, it will not work alone, and he is not the male protagonist, and he does not have such a big aura.So at the beginning, in addition to establishing that his director's power would not be interfered with by the film company, Li He decisively threw himself into the arms of a large company.To this day, anyone who wants to move Li He has to wade through the corpses of Penguin Pictures and Light Pictures.The question is, who has so much energy that neither Penguin Pictures nor Light Pictures dare to protect Li He?

It can be said that as long as Li He does not die, does not break the law and commit crimes, and fights steadily and steadily step by step, he will already be in an invincible position.Of course, the director's most important thing is to rely on movies, but looking at Li He's strong creative desire before 30 years old, you can see the time for Li Hejia's films to come out next.Not to mention the complicated ideas of the two Disney executives, Li He and Tang Qianqian were listening to the third version of the soundtrack composed by Hans Zimmer in Hans Zimmer's studio at this time."

How?

How does it feel?

”Hans Zimmer saw Li He put down his headphones and hurriedly asked.He no longer dares to underestimate this young director from the East, because it is really Li He's professionalism and creativity that are impressive.Hans Zimmer seems to have seen those world-class directors who are famous, and Li He is undoubtedly one of them.Li He nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, it basically meets my requirements, but there is one point, there is a lack of tone to express the whole theme, I want the audience to go deeper into the plot, and the soundtrack will drive them into the plot of the movie." ”Hans Zimmer thought for a moment and said, "No problem, I'll try to change a few more versions for you to hear." ”"Okay, then I'll trouble you," Li He thanked.After that, Li He and Tang Qianqian spent another two weeks in Los Angeles, visiting various places in Hollywood and learning about Hollywood film production models.Of course, it's just a one-sided view, and people in the real core places won't let you see it.However, Rao is like this, Li He also feels that he has gained a lot, since Hollywood has been commercialized in the world, it has never encountered an opponent, and the mystery contained in it is a science.Chinese films have a long way to go if they want to go abroad!

Li He's movies can be popular all over the world because his films are dressed in the skin of Chinese films, but they are actually the content of Hollywood movies.Therefore, Li He's sunspots often criticize Li He, saying that his films have completely deviated from Chinese films and have become Hollywood, and then they have studied that Li He is a director who admires foreign countries.Li He was a little speechless when he heard this, but in some ways, what these sunspots said was not wrong.Even the patriotic Wolf Warrior 2 can be scolded for being made like a Hollywood movie, not like a Chinese movie, what else can Li He say?

It can only be said that why can foreigners do it, but not Chinese?

Why can foreigners shoot but Chinese people can't?

The sunspot who said this kind of argument is the real admirer of the foreigner, and he always feels that their foreign masters can do it but their own people can't do it, Brother Wu Jing's words are good, but TM is a cheap bone.It has been a hundred years since the martyrdom, and the descendants of Yan and Huang have stood up, and the hard-boned Chinese people do not kneel except for their ancestors and parents
