Chapter 873： Distant relatives are not as good as neighbors
Relativity Entertainment and Hollywood’s traditional forces have repeatedly conflicted, but Hollywood’s traditional big companies are also facing many problems. In addition, Ronan’s strategy is not completely confrontational. He has many cooperations with the most powerful Warner Bros., even if Warner Bros. The brothers are aimed at something, but also dominated by small actions secretly.
The real opposite of relativity entertainment is actually the Fox family in the 20th century.
The reason is that the two parties have irreconcilable contradictions in their major interests.
Ronan also always felt that the fact that Vinci and Nikia had occasionally reminded him that they seemed to disappear recently may have something to do with 20th Century Fox.
There is indeed no evidence, even if Vinci's people went to England, nothing was found for the time being.
But this kind of thing is too much like the acting style of News Corporation in Ronan's memory.
Marvel Entertainment, a subsidiary of Relativity Entertainment, is biting Twentieth Century Fox on "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four." It is normal for Twentieth Century Fox to come back and dig into the corner of Relativity Entertainment.
Connie said: "Twentieth Century Fox has established a lot of first-line big projects because of our relationship. Roland Emmerich’s "Ten Thousand Years of Prehistory", and Ridley Scott’s new film under preparation is named "The Pharaohs and the Gods" and "Robin Hood" are said to be about to be established. Twentieth Century Fox intends to hire British director Guy Ritchie to direct it and invite Oscar actor Russell Crowe to star in Robin Hood."
Ronan squeezed his chin and said, "Twentieth Century Fox has dug away many of our projects."
Maybe you can add "Super Storm" to it?
But this disaster movie is different from the other three. The storm disaster movie has a market in North America. As long as it is filmed, the box office will be a big hit. It is still possible to achieve results like the day after tomorrow.
In Ronan's eyes, the biggest uncertainty in the project is Julian Simpson.
Like "Kings of the Heavens", the 20th Century Fox had far more confidence in the producer-centric system than ordinary people, but regarded the director as the studio shooting commander, and other problems could be solved by the producer.
Having said that, this may have something to do with James Cameron and "Titanic". Back then, James Cameron and 20th Century Fox hurt each other. It is estimated that 20th Century Fox has had enough of powerful directors. Of film projects are restricting the power of directors.
Thinking of James Cameron, Ronan suddenly had an idea.
In the twentieth century, Fox has stretched out his hand. How can a good person like himself not give a good neighbor a gift?
Relativity Entertainment and Twentieth Century Fox are both in Century City, and the two office buildings are far away. They are definitely Hollywood's closest neighbors.
There is an old saying on the other side of the Pacific, that distant relatives are not as good as neighbors!
Neighbors, you can't stay away from each other and help each other or hurt each other.
Facing the 20th Century Fox, Ronan felt that it was necessary for Relativity Entertainment to be a good neighbor.
Hmm... a good neighbor surnamed Wang or something.
Relativity Entertainment, such an honest and reliable neighbor, is rare.
Ronan asked: "I remember the film "Terminator 3", James Cameron served as a producer?"
Connie’s position determined that she had to know enough information. She just thought about it for a moment and said: “It’s not a producer, it’s that James Cameron is on the screenwriter list, but actually James Cameron I was invited by Anne Hurd to provide a few ideas, and it was Michael Felice and John Bricatto who actually wrote the script."
Ronan nodded slowly. It is understandable that James Cameron and one of his ex-wife Anne Hurd can make full use of the huge reputation and influence of "Terminator 2" to continue to attract movie fans into the theater.
In addition, James Cameron is also known to be very friendly to his ex-wife.
When they get married, they hurt each other and become incompatible. After divorce, they can be good friends.
"What about the copyright situation?" Ronan asked emphatically: "Especially the copyright of the sequel."
Just like Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" series, the "Terminator" series is also one of Hollywood's most complicated major production films.
"Anne Hurd integrated the copyright of the "Terminator" series at the time, and this was the result of the filming of "Terminator 2." Connie recalled and said: ""Terminator 2" was released, and the copyright of the series has also arrived. Locke Pictures and its distributor 20th Century Fox. Later, Carlock Pictures went bankrupt and was acquired by Sony Columbia Pictures, but the copyright of "Terminator" was integrated by 20th Century Fox."
She put it plainly: "In 2000, Warner Bros., together with Twentieth Century Fox and Sony Entertainment's Middleman Pictures, jointly funded and produced "Terminator 3". If I remember correctly, after "Terminator 3" , The copyright of the sequel was licensed to Warner Bros. by Tom Rothman of Twentieth Century Fox, but if Twentieth Century Fox wants to start this series, it can pay Warner Bros. a certain amount of copyright fees and recover the right to shoot the sequel."
This is not much different from Ronan's understanding, but Ronan wants to confirm the answer, saying: "You go check it out and say it after you are sure."
Connie left the office.
Ronan stood by the office window, looking at the Fox Building not far away, a good neighbor of Relativity Entertainment.
James Cameron’s "Terminator" series is famous. If the first one can only be regarded as an alternative cut film, the second one is a real top science fiction production, and even through special effects technology, it has changed Hollywood to a certain extent. Special effects production.
A few years later, in the special effects production of "Jurassic Park" that broke almost all records, Spielberg almost copied the special effects and prop production team of "Terminator 2".
"Terminator 2" is undoubtedly a classic among the classics. There are countless classic pictures and lines left. The governor's last thumbs up is one of the most famous movie shots in the 1990s.
But James Cameron mentioned it more than once at the beginning of the filming and production of the "Terminator 2" series. This series will be completely ended in the second part, and the story has no tail or room for re-creation.
As a director, James Cameron can bring a popular series to an end. After all, Carlock Pictures did not expect "Terminator 2" to be so successful.
How could a Hollywood studio watch the end of such a profitable series?
As a result, "Terminator 3" was released naturally.
At the beginning, the fans of the series were very excited, and it was not until the film was released that they realized that this was not the "Terminator" they wanted.
"Terminator 3" not only failed to achieve the expected commercial results, but also consumed the trust and expectations of movie fans.
But after all, the film made money for the producers.
Of course, the profitable series must be filmed.
There used to be one "Terminator" one after another, and then one more miserable than another.
In the end, James Cameron's withdrawal and "Terminator 3" are actually the key.
From Ronan’s point of view, it’s too risky to shoot a sequel. It’s not that there is no audience to support this series. Such a huge proposition. There are also "Terminator 2" and James Cameron’s second near-end series. , So that latecomers can play very little space.
Coupled with this series of special effects, it is necessary to invest heavily in production and require extensive market support.
And the audience? After gorgeous special effects have become a daily life in Hollywood and have become accustomed to the apocalyptic future of human society, what is the appeal of the "Terminator" series?
In fact, James Cameron is a smart man.
No matter how tempted the production company was, it still refused to direct "Terminator 3" even if it offered sky-high prices.
I am afraid that he himself knows that even if he personally plays, the result may not be too good.
Now that there is a massive consumption of trust in "Terminator 3", even if James Cameron shoots another "Terminator 4", the failure may not only be the reputation and trust of the audience.
But Hollywood film companies are different. As long as one film in the series can make money, the possibility of filming the next one is extremely high until all the value is drained.
At one time, Ronan, including him, had many die-hard fans after "Terminator 2". They were unwilling to admit that the films from the third part were still "Terminator", thinking that the second part was all over. Those unscrupulous works are purely money-trapping.
Even later, many people feel very disgusted when they hear the new "Terminator" movie.
Connie returned to the office quickly and said, "I just checked and the situation is very certain."
Ronan thought for a moment, and said, "In this way, let someone send a letter to Warner Bros. asking if the copyright of the sequel to the "Terminator" series can be transferred to Shahai Entertainment.
Connie said, "Okay."
Ronan added: "Find a few suitable executives and disclose the news to the media, saying that I intend to take over the "Terminator" series and create a new sequel."
There is almost no cost for this kind of thing, and the effect is of course the best, and it does not matter if there is no effect: "Send a letter to the governor’s office asking about the possibility of Arnold Schwarzenegger continuing to appear in the "Terminator" series in the future. Let people find The savior and his mother back then..."
Ronan didn't think of the name for a while, and Connie reminded: "Edward Fron and Linda Hamilton."
"Yes is them." Ronan said: "People go to them and ask them if they want to return to the Terminator series."
Connie said, "I will arrange for someone to do it."
Ronan urged: "Operate everything as real, don't be high-key, or deliberately low-key, just let the media notice."
"I understand." This little operation is relatively easy in Connie's hands: "I will communicate with Robert. If he comes out in person, it will be more convincing."
Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes."
Connie asked, "I have nothing else to arrange."
Ronan waved his hand, waited for Connie to leave, and then looked at the Fox Tower. If within a short period of two to three years, 20th-century Fox’s big-production films broke out one after another, would there be a crisis?
