Chapter 382: Very entertaining
Since August, Robert Shea has already foreseen the crisis, and Robert E. Shey has realized this since Eric did not involve him in any of the Praia Vista shooting bases.
This reminds him of Barry Diller’s experience six years ago. Barry Diller brought Paramount to the top, but because of the conflict with Paramount’s major shareholder Martin Davis, he was almost evicted. Paramount Pictures, but these years, the performance of Paramount all the way down and the prosperity of Fox, also proved how big mistake Martin Davis made.
Robert Shea is still somewhat self-aware. He knows he can't compete with Barry Diller, but he also knows that he has the advantage that Barry Diller doesn't have, that is, 25% of the firefly shares in the hands, and most of the fireflies. Employees are subordinates of his new line.
Robert Shea has been confident that if Eric forcibly expelled him, the fireflies would suffer much more damage than the departure of Barry Diller from Paramount. So even if he felt the crisis, Robert Shea didn't think Eric dared to do too much.
In fact, he also understands that Eric hopes that he will let go of the idea that the production business will only participate in the distribution. But in any film company, the production rights are the object of high-level competition. If he is only allowed to supervise the film distribution and not participate in other business of the company, what is the difference with an issue manager?
It was the end of the day's work, and Robert Shea stood up and took a look at the watch. He looked at the watch, approaching five o'clock, and told the assistant a few words. Then he habitually packed up things, put on his coat and left the office to get off work.
Robert Shea’s office was adjacent to Eric, and when she walked past the door of Eric’s office, Robert Shea looked at the nameplate on the door of the eye and guessed Eric with dissatisfaction. Did you leave the company early?
Walk along the long corridor all the way to the elevator. As he approached the corner where the elevator was, Robert Shea subconsciously stopped because he heard Eric's voice.
At the beginning, it was just some innocent chats. Robert Shea soon lost interest and was about to go, but lifted her feet. Robert Shay erected his ears and listened to Eric. "This time, you can't be surprised like "The Ghosts Are Not Ghosted". You are personally responsible for this and contact an agency to contact Bruce. Evans, you must successfully win the script."
"Do not worry. Eric, I understand what to do, this time is absolutely foolproof," this is the voice of Eric's assistant Alan Fisman.
Eric once again said: "Be careful, the price should not be too high, but it will cause the other party's vigilance."
The two talked a few more words, and Robert Shea heard a slamming sound, followed by a slight footstep. There was no sound in the elevator. After a while, Robert Shee walked over and watched a lift on the left slowly down. A thoughtful expression on his face. At the same time, the name of Bruce Evans was also carefully recorded. Robert Shea immediately decided to find someone to inquire about the writer.
After the elevator started to go down, Eric and Allen looked at each other and smiled at the corner of the elevator. Although the blur was unclear, Robert Shea had just left the office. Eric and Allen have already discovered him. Moreover, it is enough to reveal only the name of a Bruce Evans. Bruce Evans is not a nameless pawn. This screenwriter has already produced several films. of course. The play still has to be done in full, and then someone has to contact Bruce Evans to make a gesture to win the "cut throat" script.
"Let him leave with a little thought, and he can save a lot of trouble for the company." Eric suddenly said one when the elevator was about to slide to the top.
"Eric, why do I feel that this script is not bad?"
"A good script doesn't necessarily make a good movie. Even if you make a good movie, you won't necessarily get recognition from the audience."
Allen nodded thoughtfully, two people came to the parking lot together, Eric just opened the door and the mobile phone rang.
"Then I will go back first," Allen said, greeting.
Eric nodded and connected the phone. A female voice came out: "Eric, my reputation is completely ruined."
"You can rest assured that I will never be responsible," Eric haha laughed a few times, then said: "Fox's little princess, I think this title is still very high grade, you are really beautiful these days."
I have to say that Elizabeth has really entered the show during this time, and she has performed a lot of arrogance and arrogance for Oscar. The girl even went to Martin Scorsese’s reception for "Good Guy" and personally 'Public Relations. 'Martin Scorsese doesn't declare the best film for Good Guy. Just declare a best director. As long as Martin Scorsese agrees to this condition, she can contact Fox's resources for Martin. Cossés made the awards public relations. Compared with the best director, Elizabeth pays more attention to the best film award. Once the "Silence of the Lamb" is awarded, she can get the Xiaojin people as a producer.
And almost everyone in Hollywood knows that Martin Scorsese is not very fond of the Oscar jury, so his chances of getting the best director in a movie are far less than the possibility of getting the best film. Elizabeth’s suggestion is almost It was on Martin's painful foot, Martin Scorsese was almost angry on the spot, and things spread, and Elizabeth also got the nickname of 'Fox Princess.'
"Ah, you bastard, all blame you, what Fox's little princess, everyone knows that this is ironic," Elizabeth raised her voice and complained, then said: "I am in the afternoon with the "Dance with the Wolf" producer Signed the contract, the price did not talk, spent 27.5 million, and Orion film, 2 million dollars to buy out their distribution contract, you did not see, those guys look at my eyes almost the word '冤大头' It’s written on my face. I’m busy with it, I’m going to drop 500,000 pocket money, this can’t be done, you have to compensate me.”
"I am paying for meat, just tonight?"
"roll!"
Eric didn't make any more jokes and said, "Well, where are you now? I used to look at the samples. I haven't seen this movie yet."
"Of course I am at my own home," Elizabeth just finished saying this sentence, and soon added: "It's too late, let's talk tomorrow, the original copy I stored in Fox's vault, Century City definitely got off work It is." (To be continued)
