Chapter six hundred and twentieth eight temptation
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
The police were very quick, and several people on the beach were controlled without exception. The reporter holding the DV camera saw the police pushing the person into the police car, turning off the DV camera, and hurried towards his car.
All the ones that should be taken have been taken, and the rest are not worth much.
When I arrived at a seven-seater business car, the door was pulled open from the inside, and the black man showed his head and waved, "Hurry up!"
The reporter holding the DV camera quickly got into the car and sat next to the black man.
"Drive back to the studio!"
The black man gave the driver a command, then took the DV camera, turned on the screen and looked at it. After the business car left Linhai's highway, he raised his head and said, "Okay! Very good! The shot was great!"
The few people in the car were in a good mood and laughed at this time.
"Go back and edit it first." The black man was confident, "and I'll contact caa."
"Aren't you selling it to a TV station or a video website?" asked the reporter who had previously held a DV in confusion, "What are you doing when you contact Caa?"
"Idiot!" The black man bent his fingers and gave him a thunderous stern, "caa is Murphy Stanton's agency."
The other person immediately understood and couldn't help but stretch out a thumb, "Does the boss want to sell it to Murphy Stanton and the media at the same time to make two money?"
The black man nodded and said to the man, "I'll contact Caa and contact Murphy Stanton; you can contact the TV station we work with later."
The man nodded, "Don't worry, boss, just leave it to me."
"And!" the black man finally reminded, "We don't know each other, and the content sold to both sides is also shot by different people."
"I see!"
These people soon arrived at the place where they rented their offices and became busy.
In Century City, a black Bentley rushed to the front of the Death Star Building. The car had just stopped. Before the doorman could walk forward, the rear door was pushed open from the inside. Gal Gadot, wearing a dark lady suit, got out of the car quickly and quickly walked towards the main entrance of the Death Star Building.
She had obvious anxiety on her face and almost walked as fast as she could. In just a few minutes, she took the elevator to the top floor of the Death Star Building where the Caa Partner's office was.
"Miss Gadot..."
An assistant who came towards him politely greeted Gal Gadot. Gal Gadot nodded to him, said nothing, quickly walked to Bill Roses's office door, raised his hand and knocked on the door twice, then pushed the door and walked in.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Murphy sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Seeing Murphy safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief and her tight face looked much better.
When Murphy saw Gal Gadot coming in a hurry, he quickly stood up and pulled her down, poured her a cup of tea, and comforted her, "Dear, I'm fine."
Gal Gadot took the teacup, took a sip, and looked at Murphy, "I regret it now!"
"Hmm?" Murphy didn't understand what she meant.
"I regret not trying my best to stop you from shooting that movie!" Gal Gadot was not joking at all, "I regret agreeing to you to use religion as part of your plan!"
Her face tensed again, "Murphy..."
"I'm sorry, my dear." Murphy walked over, bent down and hugged her gently, and said, "It makes you worry."
Gal Gadot shook his head, but didn't know what to say. Of course, she knew very well what kind of person Murphy was and would definitely not change her existing plans because of this kind of thing.
"You must be careful in the future." Gal Gadot could only say helplessly, "Don't worry me like today, okay?"
Murphy nodded solemnly, "I promise."
He still cherishes his life very much.
However, this kind of thing won't scare him. Many Hollywood directors have faced storms, but few people will retreat.
Besides, if media reporters promote it, it will actually have far more benefits to his plan than disadvantages.
"Where is Bill?"
Gal Gadot was just now all his mind was on Murphy, and then he realized that the owner of the office was not there. "Why didn't you see him?"
Murphy smiled and said, "I asked him to discuss with Grace how to make the most of this incident."
"You..." Gal Gadot rolled his eyes, "It's really a typical style of doing things."
"Isn't this good?" Murphy spread his hands innocently, "The bodyguard can't let the rotten eggs smash for nothing, right?"
Although the ones smashed at that time were not really rotten eggs, the eggs used to smash people were in his understanding of the veritable rotten eggs.
After saying this, Gal Gadot remembered that there was still some serious matters and changed the topic, "By the way, I met Catherine Kennedy this morning."
"What did she ask you for?" Murphy did not have a deep friendship with the people representing the Jewish forces in Hollywood.
He looked at Gal Gadot, his girlfriend was an authentic Jew.
"Test!" Gal Gadot said seriously, "Test your attitude through me."
Murphy frowned slightly, "Does Catherine Kennedy have a project that suits me?"
Katherine Kennedy is best known as a producer, and is one of the rare female gold medal producers in Hollywood.
"Water Disney basically negotiated with George Lucas' acquisition case, and the rest were some details."
It is long known to everyone in the circle that George Lucas wants to sell Lucas Pictures to Disney. Gal Gadot did not explain much, and said, "Catherine Kennedy is the candidate of the new chief officer that George Lucas and Disney are both interested in. She told me that Disney is preparing to restart the "Star Wars" series, and Disney's senior executives are interested in invite you to be director."
Walt Disney acquired Lucasfilm for Industrial Light and Magic, and the other was "Star Wars". Everyone knew that this series would inevitably be promoted to theaters by Disney again.
"Me?" Murphy shook his head directly, "Next time you meet Catherine Kennedy, tell her directly that I'm not interested."
Even if he wants to shoot a sequel movie, he still wants to shoot a sequel to his own movies, rather than taking over the Star Wars series.
To be honest, there are too many sequels in Hollywood. He hasn't finished filming his own, so of course he won't go to other companies to mix it up.
However, he also knew very well that the Star Wars series was indeed easy to make a director successful.
"Star Wars 7..." Gal Gadot shook his head and glanced at Murphy again, "It's all sequel movies."
Murphy shrugged, "It's normal."
He has seen a set of data in Caa's market research department that shows that the sequel model is popular in Hollywood: in 2011, except for his "City of Chaos", only "Brathermaids" among the top ten movies in North America were considered original, and only ranked tenth. Other "Harry Potter" and "Transformers" are basically sequels, and even if they are not sequels, they are adapted from adaptations. Judging from the top fifty North America box office, the box office share of sequel movies and adapted movies has soared from less than 10% in 1998 to more than 70% today.
Even Murphy has to admit that Hollywood, which once represented the highest level of films, is now on the road to relying on sequel blockbusters.
Hollywood has always been a business circle. In this situation, it is better to say that major companies rely on sequel development than to say that they are always led by the market.
In order to reduce business risks, when choosing the protagonist, they will definitely give priority to characters such as "Captain America" and "Wolverine" that have already market awareness.
After the initial golden age, the real value of the film industry today is not how much box office the film itself brings, but whether it can provide more opportunities for other fields.
Murphy has a clear understanding of this, computer games, theme parks, and interactive entertainment are all in this category.
For example, in the past, Walt Disney spent a huge amount of money to build a Star Wars theme park near Disneyland, California. In order to maintain the popularity of the park, it also needed to supply the Star Wars series of films continuously.
In fact, as a representative of fan culture, the Star Wars series has always been known for its loyal fans and derivative consumption of comics, texts, and peripheral products. Since the first film was released in 1977, the consumption of peripheral products has approached US$30 billion, far exceeding the box office revenue of the series' movies.
Putting aside the movie box office, Hollywood's greater revenue comes from its surrounding derivatives.
The office door was pushed open from outside, and Bill Roses hurriedly walked in. Murphy glanced at him and before he could ask how the discussion was going, Bill Roses said, "What happened to Santa Monica again."
Murphy and Gal Gadot stared at him at the same time.
Bill Roses said as concisely as possible, "After leaving Santa Monica Commercial Plaza, that Catholic believer who attacked you, I don't know what happened, was stopped by Daisy from the ImDB discussion group, led a few movie fans, and then was beaten!"
"Good fight!" Gal Gadot blurted out, and after she said that, she shrugged, "That's what I think."
"Someone called the police," Bill Rossis continued. "Daisy and several others were arrested by the police, and Robert's friend at the police station called me."
Murphy stood up, frowned and walked a few steps, and said, "So, Bill, you can find out what's going on as soon as possible."
Fans, especially Daisy, are easily contacted by people. Murphy is aware of this and said, "You call Robert and let him bail Daisy as much as possible."
"Well." Bill Roses immediately thought of another layer, "As soon as such news spreads, fans will recognize you more."
As soon as he said this, Bill Roses's phone rang. He answered and said a few words, his face suddenly darkened.
