Chapter 639： Double standard dog

Looking at the confident Van Diesel, Ronan gave the only prerequisite for cooperation: "As an actor, he signed a contract with Shahai Entertainment for five "Fast and Furious" films, or as the third actor in "Fast and Furious". 3"."

Van Diesel did not give any consideration at all, and knew that the missed plot would not come back, so he simply refused: "This is impossible."

"This is the prerequisite for our cooperation." Ronan shook his head slightly, stood up and prepared to leave: "Dominique Torreto can't appear in the new "Fast and Furious" movie, it's a pity."

That said, Ronan didn't have many regrets, after all, Shahai Entertainment has already prepared the record.

It is not the core, not the boss, has no power, and has to sign a contract for sale. How can a confident and proud person like Van Diesel agree, shaking his head and saying: "It's not that you don't want to show up."

Ronan said nothing, shook hands with Van Diesel and prepared to leave.

Van Diesel said suddenly: "Mr. Anderson, take the liberty to remind you that in order to avoid copyright disputes in the future, you'd better not use the themes and concepts I mentioned earlier in the movie."

Ronan stopped, turned around, smiled, and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Let me remind you. Shahai Entertainment has completed the script for the new trilogy of "Fast and Furious", including The concept of racing family and lumbering is tired. The crew registered the copyright with the Copyright Office and the Screenwriters Guild a few months ago. You had better not use these again, otherwise copyright disputes will really easily arise."

"Uh..." Rao was suddenly choked with Van Diesel's confidence and arrogance.

Ronan didn't look at Van Diesel any more, and took Connie directly out of this office. As for what Van Diesel would think, let him go.

Copyright disputes are impossible. What he said just now is the truth.

Without the bullish boss Don, Paul Walker can be the main line of the plot, and then introduce new characters, and then form a racing family.

As for Dominique Torreto, just after the first part of the character left, he disappeared.

It was a while after Ronan left that Van Diesel came out of the office, touched the big bald head with a confident halo, and walked out of the theater.

The agent came out from a corner and asked, "How's the talk?"

Van Diesel said directly: "I didn't talk about it, Ronan Anderson is too arrogant to fail once, and I don't know the importance of talent."

The agent was speechless for a moment, and he felt that Van Diesel was talking about himself.

Van Diesel didn't plan to go to the premiere of "Spider-Man 2" again, and said to his agent: "Contact us to book a ticket and we will return to Los Angeles as soon as possible."

He has to go to the Copyright Office and the Screenwriters Guild to see if it is really what Ronan Anderson said.

After getting in the car, looking at the streets of Brooklyn, Van Diesel folded his arms around his chest, as strong as the Brooklyn Bridge.

The creative ideas that came up with painstaking efforts cannot be wasted. Ronan Anderson refused to cooperate, but some companies that Hollywood wants to cooperate with can create another series.

The more Van Diesel thought about it, the clearer his thoughts became, and the more he felt that this plan was feasible, and said to his agent: "Go back to Los Angeles and contact me a few screenwriters who are good at action movies. I have an idea for action movies and need to find someone Finish the script."

The agent said: "It's easy to find screenwriters in this area."

Van Diesel added: "Contact Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox, Walt Disney and other companies and tell them I have an action movie project in my hands."

"Okay." The agent replied: "Although "Star Legend 2" lost the box office, there are still companies that want to cooperate with..."

Van Diesel waved his hand impatiently: "I said, "Star Legend 2" is just a small accident, don't mention it."

The agent realized that what Van Diesel didn't want to face was touched by what Van Diesel didn't want to face, and quickly changed the subject: "The negotiation with Shahai Entertainment..."

Van Diesel said categorically: "No more talk."

What else to talk about? Sign a contract to sell, let Shahai Entertainment exploit and oppress for ten years? I am a dignified 200-pound heavy-duty humanoid locomotive. A collection of screenwriters, producers, directors, super movie talents with mighty stature, strong muscles, high talents and artistic talents!

Van Diesel will never be a slave unless he makes up a table of bald heads!

Since the screening of "Spider-Man 2" had already begun, Ronan did not enter the theater, exchanged a few words with a senior from Sony Columbia Pictures, and found Howard Stringer who was also not in the theater.

Having received a report from Chris before, Howard Stringer was very clear about Ronan’s purpose and said: “If the opportunity is right, Sony Columbia Pictures is willing to work with Marvel to further develop the Spider-Man series.”

When is the right opportunity? Wait patiently.

Ronan simply said directly: "The situation of society and the film industry has changed rapidly in the past two years. The agreement on Spider-Man that year is no longer suitable for this era. It is necessary to sign a supplementary agreement between Marvel and Sony Entertainment. New agreement."

When he said this, Ronan suddenly thought of Mel Gibson. It seemed that Mel Gibson was like him after the release of "The Passion of the Christ"?

Why does Mel Gibson disgust him when he takes his actions for granted?

Sure enough, normal people have double standards.

Treating yourself is one standard, and treating others is another standard.

Howard Stringer laughed: "Ronan, you always talk about credit. In Hollywood, you are famous for keeping promises and paying attention to the spirit of contract. How can you go back on the copyright agreement of Spider-Man?"

These words almost lifted Ronan up high.

If you are an ordinary person, you will definitely be forced into the corner by these seemingly praiseworthy words, and will not be able to move for a short time, but Ronan's face is so thick that he immediately laughed.

"The copyright agreement of "Spider-Man" was not signed by Relativity Entertainment, and it has nothing to do with me." Ronan lightly said: "Howard, if I remember correctly, Sony Columbia Pictures did not get "Spider" from Marvel. "Xia" copyright, there is no agreement between Marvel and Sony Columbia Pictures, and there is no talk of violating the spirit of the contract."

Howard Stringer was a little surprised. This was the first time he had really dealt with Ronan. It was quite surprising that this young man, who was less than 30 years old, had a 100-year-old face.

These are all false theories, but they are beyond rebuttal.

Because Marvel and Relativity Entertainment did not sign a copyright and sharing agreement for Spider-Man with Sony Columbia Pictures.

The two parties abide by the agreement signed when Marvel sold "Spider-Man" to Cannon Pictures.

Howard Stringer knows very well that the huge benefits brought by the "Spider-Man" movie ushered in the peeping of Marvel and now Marvel's upper family of Relativity Entertainment.

But after so many years, Sony Columbia has finally produced such a super popular series. Is it easy?

Transfer benefits? What a joke!

"There is no need to talk about modifying the agreement or signing the agreement again." Howard Stringer must take a tough stance to deal with the greedy prying eyes of the outside world: "Ronan, after all, your relativity entertainment and Marvel entertainment are nothing more than I want to share more benefits from the "Spider-Man" series of movies."

This sentence directly pointed to the core of the problem, and it was impossible to refute it. Ronan did not refute, but continued to act as a double-standard dog: "Marvel Entertainment just wants to get the share that he deserves."

Howard Stringer suddenly asked: "Have you considered a question?"

Ronan wondered: "What's the problem?"

Howard Stringer said faintly: "Sony Columbia Pictures bought the son with the ability, why should he return it to Marvel Entertainment?"

Ronan has a thick face to Skyrim: "As a father, whether he is new or old, he wants to see his son get better."

Regarding Ronan's shameless remarks, Howard Stringer was a little helpless, and his voice gradually turned cold: "Ronan, Spider-Man's copyright and income are not something you can take back if you want."

Ronan was also a little helpless, because Marvel was too poor before, and the poor sold his sons and godsons.

In the end, Marvel sold himself poorly to his Relativity Entertainment.

These historical problems are really difficult to solve, and Ronan did not expect to solve them in a short time.

Just like the meeting with Van Diesel, the interview between Ronan and Howard Stringer ended up unhappy.

Compared to Chris, who can be said to be a friend, Howard Stringer's attitude towards Relativity Entertainment and Ronan is very tough, and there is even no room for negotiation.

It is impossible to take back Spider-Man in a short period of time. Ronan can only focus on how he can obtain part of the profits of Spider-Man.

Ronan said to Connie, "Let's go back to the hotel."

Connie quickly called to contact the vehicle, and a few minutes later, she got into a car with Ronan.

"When the premiere is over, you contact Avi Arad." Ronan said to Connie: "I will meet with him tomorrow Connie quickly wrote it down.

Ronan added: "Notify all the heads of the company's propaganda department to prepare for the fall of the Fantastic Four in the new version of the comic."

Connie asked, "Really want to kill the Fantastic Four?"

Ronan nodded slightly: "We must show Marvel's determination to the entire Hollywood, otherwise other copyrights will be renegotiated and there is no chance of success."

Connie understands this simple truth: "I hope Twentieth Century Fox can make wise choices."

"I hope so too." Ronan smiled: "But it's difficult. Who wants to let out the cake?"

Think about how Embassy Pictures treated Mel Gibson? How other companies treat the brand new Marvel entertainment when it comes to Marvel superhero movies.

Ronan couldn't help sighing secretly: Who would have thought that this role changed so quickly!
