Chapter 408: Have some opinions?
After a while, Harvey left alone, and Elizabeth moved to Eric, whispering: "Eric, how do you say I bought Miramax?"
Eric gestured to a waiter to take away the plate he had eaten and asked for a glass of champagne before he asked, "How come you suddenly come up with this idea?"
Elizabeth said: "I heard that Miramax lost a lot of money this year. After the success of "Sex, Lies and Videotapes" and "My Left Foot" last year, the Weinstein brothers bought more than a dozen movies in one breath. Most of the box office failed, and there was nothing in the Oscar. I think this is a good opportunity."
"Good opportunity, what good opportunity? What is the purpose of your purchase of Miramax? Even if you buy it, what specific plans do you have for Miramax? And what is the development idea of tg, these you have Have you considered it?"
Eric’s series of questions directly questioned Elizabeth. After the success of Silent Lamb, Elizabeth only thought about playing iron, continuing to make films, and growing tg, but the specific plan... what kind of production companies do they need? Planning? Besides making a movie, isn't it still a movie?
"Well, let's come one by one," Eric looked at Elizabeth, who was overwhelmed: "Why are you buying Miramax?"
"In order to... Oscar, their two brothers are very good at public relations Oscar. In addition to helping the "Silence of the Lamb" and public relations, they also won five best foreign film nominations."
“Although there are hot movies that rush into Oscar every year, most Oscar-nominated films are still works of art. Since you want to buy Miramax, that is to say. Have you decided to concentrate on the art of the awards in the future?”
Elizabeth shook her head: "Of course not. Just..."
"Just when it's needed, let them public relations, right, for Oscar, buy a company that is used to make and distribute literary films. Do you think tg has this strength now?"
Elizabeth was unwilling to move her waist. The silver knife in her hand pulled a pair of prawns in the front plate and muttered, "Okay, don't buy it."
Eric said again: "In fact, most of the Oscars are only a icing on the cake. We can't deny that it plays a very important role in videotape sales. Stars who win Oscars will double in value. But Hollywood produces it every year. Hundreds of movies, but only a few dozens of Oscars can be used. If the Oscar is used as a movie company's business target, then the company will never grow and develop. Recently, the Orion film that has been discontinued has been announced. In fact, it is an example. I remember that in the past few years, Orion has won 18 nominations in an Oscar, but it is still on the road to bankruptcy."
Elizabeth held a small hand and stopped: "Well, I am just an idea for a temporary start. You don't have to be so chattering, like an old man. My father doesn't have so much for you."
Eric looked at Elizabeth very ‘injured’: “If you are an irrelevant person, do you think I will chatter?”
Elizabeth's face was slightly rosy: "Even if... I am wrong. Is it OK?"
"The Silent Lamb is a famous work of tg. This is an exception, but then you have chosen another road film. Um... I haven't read this script yet, I don't comment for a while, but you think about tg. Where is the focus of making movies in the future?"
Elizabeth showed a thoughtful look: "I really don't think about it. I just think that if you can pick out a good script and make a good movie, you can't do it. Well, of course, the plan I set for myself is within five years. Don't make movies that cost more than $30 million, so you can minimize the risk, even if you accidentally lose money, you won't lose too much."
"I don't comment on the Seventh National Congress, but for Fireflies, my plan is to make a special cost-effective movie based on Firefly itself. The new line is responsible for the horror thriller. The flower film industry will be the main action movie in the future. Pixar is responsible for animation. The black ant was not accidentally positioned because it was an accident," Eric said briefly, looking at Elizabeth: "So, what type of movie do you think tg is suitable for?"
Elizabeth took a few tiny fingers and pondered for a moment: "It seems that if you can't make art films, the larger ones will have comedy."
Finally, dragging this little girl into the pit, Eric decisively said: "That would be the case, after tg specializes in making comedy, in fact, the main type of film is still very good, just like the Weinstein brothers explored a set Just like the rules of the public relations Oscar, if you transform into a comedy, it will take a long time to find a suitable path. And the production cost of comedy movies is usually very low, which is very suitable for the independent production company."
Elizabeth seems to have figured out some other meanings, watching Eric skeptically say, "How do I feel that this is all arranged by you?"
Eric made a snap and revealed a compliment: "It’s so smart, so you have no opinion?"
Elizabeth asked weakly: "If so... have opinions?"
Eric looked at Elizabeth with a smile: "Look, you are using interrogative sentences, which means that this is only a hypothesis. Then you must have no objection in your heart. If this is the case, then it is so happily decided. Let’s talk about it. The cooperation plan, in fact, I have a lot of good ideas in my heart, I have no energy to implement, I am not too reconciled to outsiders, so I am cheaper."
Elizabeth stared at Eric for a few seconds, squinting her mouth, silently forking the only prawns in the front plate and stuffing it into Eric's champagne glass, which was dispensable. Venting, then squatting on the table and said depressedly: "God, how can I meet you like this shameless guy, I am going crazy."
Eric looked at the cup and had a layer of oil, and the old **** sighed and wasted. Standing up and regretfully, I changed another cup to the waiter. By the way, I also took a glass of wine to the girl next to me: "Come, drink a glass of champagne, you should thank me, but I am a big one. 'Gold Mine' is handed over to you."
"I unloaded unloaded you," Elizabeth gritted her teeth and glanced at Eric. She took the glass of champagne and drank it. (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
