Chapter 732： Lao Bai does not go to school
"This is not just a story of a middle-aged uncle selling drugs in New Mexico." George Clint further said: "The protagonist is still a big villain!"
Ronan took out the information in the file bag and looked up at George Clint: "So many TV stations and production companies refuse, right?"
There are also many Hollywood movies and TV series with absolute villains as the protagonists, and it is not uncommon for successful ones.
For example, "The Sopranos" which started in 1999.
HBO, a fictional TV series that reflects the theme of the Mafia, has been receiving high ratings and has become a frequent guest of the Golden Globe and Emmy Awards in recent years.
George Clint nodded slightly: "Because this is a project strongly recommended by James Wong and Glenn Morgan, I specially let people know about it."
A successful director and a successful screenwriter are willing to endorse the project, which impresses George Clint more than the project itself: "Except for those two reasons, almost all companies put three labels on the project: Darkness, Cult, minority!"
Ronan generally understands that once the project is positioned as a niche, any production company will become very cautious in investing, even in the TV series with low investment in the first quarter.
After all, no one's funds fell from the sky.
In the tradition of Hollywood over the years, for a series, it takes a big risk to take a villain as the protagonist.
George Clint added: "I have been in contact with Vince Gilligan. He told me very bluntly that the main line of the project is very creative. It is to completely record how a good old man who has been stubborn for half his life has changed. Become a demon."
Ronan opened the project book and looked through it. The bad guys would be attractive. The good guys in Hollywood film and television works are not much different, but the bad guys are all bad.
Moreover, this project reminded him of a middle-aged man—Lao Bai who had almost no impression.
This is a TV series in which he has never watched the first episode. The first time he left because he had something to do after watching most of the episode, and was later taken off the shelves completely, and he was too lazy to search for resources for a TV series.
Therefore, Lao Bai didn't leave any impression on him, let Ronan think about it, and might never remember it.
He didn't even know what the name of Lao Bai's character was.
Hearing the words of George Clint and seeing the beginning of the story of the project script in his hand, he had only a vague impression. The colleagues who recommended the series to him were always called Lao Bai.
There are many TV characters called Lao Bai, such as the one who knows sunflower acupuncture hands, but this Lao Bai is not a runaway.
Ronan looked at the actor's name "Water-White" and understood why it was called Lao Bai.
His last name is "White".
Once watched the first episode, and gradually got some impression, after seeing the script setting of the first episode, Ronan felt that this should be "Breaking Bad" by the protagonist called Lao Bai!
Ronan first read the summary of the first episode. Water-White, New Mexico, is a small person who can't be more ordinary and works as a chemistry teacher in a high school. But he was diagnosed with lung cancer in the middle and late stages. Facing the sudden misfortune, he first thought about the future livelihood of his family, because he has a pregnant wife in his 40s and a son with mild cerebral palsy. And he is the only source of income for the family.
George Clint saw Ronan look very seriously and stopped talking.
This is not the first time he has seen this kind of thing. A project that other companies don't even look at can attract Ronan. Ronan then promoted the project and became a hit.
How did "Blair the Witch" come about? How many people thought that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" would have a big box office in North America? The pirate movie, which is recognized as a market poison, also made Ronan abruptly get the super-popular "Pirates of the Caribbean" out.
Although he thought it was "Breaking Bad", Ronan used to have too little impression and could only say that it was better than nothing, so he read the script carefully to determine if it really had a selling point.
Frankly speaking, the plot of the script didn’t catch people at the beginning, but as the plot progressed, the protagonist’s life was pushed down to the edge of the cliff, and it seemed persuasive to take risks, but the charm of money made him go crazy, sin and redemption. The road is particularly tangled, and the struggle between justice and evil is always inextricable...
Lao Bai has changed from a wage earner who stopped working on this ticket to a big drug lord who wants to build an empire business.
Ronan closed the script and made a decision: "Let me talk about the project with Vince Gilligan, and Shahai Entertainment will buy out this project and all subsequent related copyrights."
George Clint said: "Vince Gilligan asked to be a producer, at least one of the producers."
"Yes." After the copyright was bought out, the highest power was in the hands of Shahai Entertainment. Ronan did not object: "Tell Vince Gilligan, if he can prove his ability, I can give him Sanda- Rams received the same treatment."
"Negotiating shouldn't be difficult." George Clint had contacted Vince Gilligan and was more optimistic: "In a short time, Vince Gilligan could not find a buyer."
Ronan nodded slightly, and was rejected by many TV stations and many production companies one after another, which can effectively reduce Vince Gilligan's psychological expectations.
In fact, production companies are often willing to negotiate with experts who have worked hard in the circle for many years, because although the other party's asking price is not low, they will not open up their mouths and offer sky-high prices that are seriously unrealistic.
Some new talents with unconscious heads are the most mind-blowing. They think that geniuses are like themselves that can get the air every second, not to mention the sky-high price, and they will also require a high percentage of post-production...
This project is not difficult to win. If it goes well, preparations can begin this year, and next year, it will be able to log on to Netflix's streaming media platform.
Ronan left George Clint’s office and went to Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio. Although the animation studio’s first feature animation "Despicable Me" could only be released in the summer of 2005, the success of "Little Pig Peppa" However, the studio has sufficient funds.
In this business society, money can bring many things, such as the high enthusiasm of employees.
No amount of chicken soup can be compared to the remuneration in line with the value of the job.
"There are still more than a dozen authorization negotiations going on."
Chris Leonard, head of the animation studio, introduced to Ronan: "Just around "Peppa Pig", this year's revenue will be more than 250 million US dollars."
Ronan nodded, and said, "You guys are indispensable. I have already greeted the finance department. There will be surprises for the studio's award this year."
Chris Leonard said with a smile: "You are the original source of creativity, and we are also in your light."
Ronan said half jokingly: "So, the company will also give me a large bonus."
This is also the actual situation. In addition to the company’s share dividends and normal remuneration for all projects initiated by Ronan, he, like the gold medal producer in the Hollywood industry, separately enjoys various project rewards and dividends that comply with laws and regulations.
For example, in 2004, Ronan’s pre-tax income as a producer was as high as US$78.2 million, including the post-production and project income dividends of the previous years of the project, as well as the project award.
Among them, "Little Pig Page" contributed more than one-eighth.
Once the surroundings of popular cartoons become crazy, they never make any sense.
Counting the remuneration of the president and chief creative officer of Relativity Entertainment, Ronan's pre-tax income from work is over 100 million.
Even some people in the circle have called Ronan the third richest person in the entertainment industry besides George Lucas and David Fincher.
This of course does not count media giants such as Sam Redstone and Rupert Murdoch.
Goldman Sachs COO Lloyd Blankfein promised Ronan one thing, as long as Netflix is listed on the Nasdaq, Ronan will definitely become the richest man in Hollywood!
Most of Ronan's personal income is invested again, which can legally reduce the tax burden, and the dollar is constantly depreciating, even from the perspective of value preservation, investment is the most cost-effective.
His personal foundation continues to take in the outstanding shares of Apple, Google and Amazon in the market. Nowadays, regardless of the price, buying is very cost-effective.
Ronan does not speculate in stocks, and after buying, he will hold it for a long time.
The two chatted for a while on "Little Pig Peppa", which is making efforts all over the world, and turned to "Kung Fu Panda" which is being produced by the animation studio.
"The preliminary design is basically completed. After the year, multiple teams will be assembled to start production." Chris Leonard introduced the specific situation: "The studio hired the director and producer of "SpongeBob SquarePants" as Mark Osborne. Director of the project."
This is the director approved by Ronan. He has a very rich resume and is one of the main contributors to the success of the "SpongeBob SquarePants" series.
Chris Reynard said: "I have children and Mark Osborne, and the production philosophy is the same, that is, to make a work that can make our children happy while being educated. The central spirit is' Become your own hero', the truth is quite simple, it can be understood as'people should not be in appearance'."
Ronan agreed and said: "Yes. The theme of the story created by "Kung Fu Panda" conveys a very positive, positive message that we all want to believe, and then think of ways to use interesting experiences and funny, spectacular and unusual The action scenes enrich this theme."
Chris Leonard nodded and said, "The production cycle will take two years."
"No problem." Ronan said: "The next joint meeting between Shahai Entertainment and Embassy Pictures, you will discuss the specific release time."
Before the arrival of the new year, during the growing black movement, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences mailed out Oscar votes to all students.
With the current social situation, Will Smith and "Crash" are both popular candidates for their Oscar projects.
(Lao Bai's script was delivered to many companies around 2005, and was rejected without exception. It was not until more than a year later that it was discovered by AMC and Sony Pictures.)
