Chapter 287: 287

The following week, the North American media were discussing the incident of Michael owitz and the "infantry soldier.".

Awkwardly, owitz had to publish a public reply soon, firmly denying that he meant to threaten Joe ezerthaas in the dispute, saying that ezerthaas could leave CAA at any time, and he would never stop him.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Joe ezerthaas once again accused owitz of verbal violence against him, claiming that he had suffered serious psychological trauma and had completely lost his sense of security because owitz threatened to destroy his career. Ezerthaas also said that he had to sell the car he just bought with his family Real estate to avoid accidents.

Then, I don't know if it was owitz's push. Many CAA customers began to publicly support owitz. Sean Connery, Sidney Pollack and other celebrities expressed that they didn't believe that owitz, who had always been polite and rarely lost his manners, would say those words to Joe ezerthaas. They also suggested that ezerthaas might have deliberately added them in order to win sympathy Oil and vinegar.

Of course, this possibility exists.

However, Joe ezerthaas did not argue for himself, wisely continued to play the sad card, and hinted that owitz was putting pressure on him to shut up.

The media, which is not too busy to watch, continue to stir up the flames.

In such excitement, on August 23, Japan's SONY company suddenly interrupted the media's heated discussion on the "infantry soldier" incident, and announced that it had reached an agreement with Columbia Pictures to acquire Columbia Pictures at the cost of $3.4 billion in cash, while bearing $1.6 billion in debt of the old film company.

On August 25, Colombia's board of Directors voted to approve Sony's acquisition plan.

So far, after a year's tug of war, Sony has officially included Columbia Pictures, one of the seven major Hollywood film companies.

With a total value of US $5 billion, the Columbia film assets brought to Sony include Columbia and Samsung brands, a huge film library with more than 4000 film and television program copyrights, Loews cinema chain with 820 screens, and some TV station assets.

At the end of the 1980s, the television field in the United States was not open to overseas investors. Therefore, in the announcement of the agreement, Sony also said that it would divest the television assets of Columbia Pictures after the completion of the transaction.

And then, August 28, Monday.

Sony has not yet decided on the person in charge of Columbia Pictures, so it held its fourth recent press conference with Denise entertainment, announcing the fourth film of Denise Entertainment's 10 film plan, the pink League.

Like sleeping with the enemy, shaking the cradle's hand and the end of the world, the pink League is also a new Screenwriter's work, adapted from the real events during the Second World War in the United States. It tells the story of an old baseball star who tries to build a women's baseball team after men rush to the battlefield.

This North American local sports film is not obvious in the international arena, but it is also a box office work in Simon's memory of the top ten of the annual list.

On August 30, at the fifth press conference after the pink League, Universal Pictures and Denise entertainment jointly announced the fifth of their 10 film plans, which is based on Stephen King's novel the tenth day of danger. Ten days in danger tells the story of a crazy fan who accidentally saves his favorite writer and kidnaps and imprisons him to rewrite the plot after he finds that the other side has written the character he values to death.

After Stephen King became famous, because of his high production, his novels were adapted into movies very frequently. Over the years, his works have been put on the big screen every year. Denise entertainment owns the copyright of Stephen King's children in the cornfield, and in the first half of the Easter season there is also a pet cemetery adapted from Stephen King's novel of the same name.

However, most of Stephen King's films based on his novels only made $10 million or $20 million at the box office, with the exception of "pet cemetery", which was released on Easter this year.

Ten days in danger, a novel without supernatural elements, was not expected to be popular until it was favored by Simon. Universal Pictures, which had acquired the copyright in advance, took it seriously.

Simon intended five consecutive projects and five press conferences. He hopes that these 10 film plans can form an influence similar to "brand effect". Judging from the recent media reaction, the effect has been achieved. These films will not lack the attention of the media on various platforms from the casting, shooting, later stage to the release, but this is enough to compensate for millions of dollars of publicity expenses.

With the announcement of five projects, Hollywood stars are more ready to move.

Century City.

For more than a week in a row, the media's critical and ironic attacks on Michael owitz have not stopped. Owitz sometimes even doubts whether someone is deliberately targeting himself. However, the root cause of this incident is that owitz used to be too low-key. The media are full of curiosity but lack of understanding about him. A little bit of relevant information burst out, and everyone naturally flocked to him.Because of the recent negative news, or Denise Entertainment's ban, as well as the announcement of five films in the 10 film plan, CAA's customers are still losing.

After Kurt Russell and Gotty Han, Gina Davis, who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar last year, was also poached by wma. Wma also poached a writer client named Michael Clayton. Owitz remembers that this client did not have a well-known box office work, but the idea of a dinosaur novel discussed with him a few days ago was very interesting.

Now I don't care.

If neither of them is too important, wma's reaching out to Tom Hanks, who has become popular in recent two years, will make it difficult for owitz to keep calm.

Tom Hanks's "flying into the future" not only broke the box office in North America last year, but also won the best actor Oscar nomination. This year's summer season's "lucky stars and lucky generals" also has a very good local box office, and now it has been firmly in the forefront. Gotty Han and Kurt Russell, who have begun to decline, are still in the forefront of job hopping. If Tom Hanks, a rising star, leaves, it will be a serious blow to CAA's reputation.

With the continuous loss of customers, it is difficult to guarantee whether other stars will have the illusion that CAA has begun to decline and is not worth staying any longer.

Once the domino effect is formed, the result will be disastrous.

Moreover, when Columbia Pictures announced on August 31 that Gina Davis, who had just moved from CAA, would be the heroine of "the pink League" in the 10 film plan, Michael owitz understood that he had to make some kind of decision as soon as possible.

September 1, Friday.

In the new week, only a low-cost B-class thriller of Xinxian film industry is quietly released, which indicates the complete end of this year's summer season.

According to the available data, the confirmed box office movies in this summer season include six movies, including "Raiders 3", "ghost hunters 2", "dear, I've made my child smaller", "lethal weapon 2", "bodyguard" and "the sixth sense of the supernatural", of which two are danilisi entertainment.

Considering that there will be "Batman" and "over the air childlike innocence" by danielis entertainment and Warner and "back to the future 2" by Universal Pictures at the end of the year, if there are one or two more dark horses, the box office of this year will still exceed 100 million, and it is very likely that there will be more than 10 films.

In recent years, ticket prices in North America have not increased significantly. In the past few years, there were only four or five or even less Hollywood films with a box office of more than 100 million a year. Now, there are 10 films. Hollywood's rapid rise after the silence of the 1970s and 1980s is irresistible.

In my memory, in 1990, the emergence of a series of blockbusters, such as "home by a kid", "pretty girl" and "ghost", as well as the further expansion of the global film market, indicated the resurgence of Hollywood, and then the annual box office films of 100 million yuan will basically fill the top ten of the list.

In this time and space, later people sorted out the development track of Hollywood, which was probably advanced to 1988. For the first time, there were more than 1 billion yuan blockbuster films in Hollywood in a year.

The appearance of Simon, a big butterfly, has brought Hollywood's recovery two years ahead of schedule.

It's about eight o'clock in the evening.

At the four seasons hotel in Beverly Hills, Sony, the latecomer, is having a reception for Hollywood vipers.

Simon is following famik Jensen, chatting with Jeff goblin and Gina Davis, who are lovers and are currently in the first tier.

"Batman" is nearing completion. As long as the box office at the end of the year reaches the expected level, "Wonder Woman" will probably start the preliminary planning. Simon has also speeded up the speed of making famik Jensen "familiar". Originally, the other two candidates, Helena Christensen and Erica Anderson, have given up trying to compete with famik, and Simon is no longer useless.

For more than a year, famik has played several small roles in some films and TV series. Simon has arranged for her to play two small roles in Robert Altman's "intersection of life" and the company's "pink League" with Columbia Pictures.

Both films will attract more attention, and famik Jensen's figure and appearance will be enough to attract the audience's attention.

We are talking about the red pink League. Michael owitz appears nearby, finds Simon's figure and comes straight up.

Those who can show up in the banquet hall tonight are well-informed people. Seeing owitz walking towards Simon westero, they all look at him curiously and whisper a few words at the same time.

Michael owitz came to Simon and said, "Simon, can you talk to me alone?"

Simon said, "good."

Nodding to Gina Davis, Simon and owitz walked to a sofa in the corner of the hall and sat down. Famik Jensen didn't follow them wisely.
