Chapter 150 They Need Healing [3/5]

"Mr. John Flameer, James Batch, who was fired for Justin, is this true?"

"Justin, do you have any conflicts with James Batch? What caused you to have someone leave?"

"Jon, can you explain the fabrication of Rita Conroy in "Buried Live"?

Is the anti-war wave manipulation behind the scenes of the Lion Gate, using people's yearning for peace to achieve the goal of selling the film?"

"Tom, what made you so bravely sign such a generous share agreement with Justin? Is it true that someone says there is a shady story between you?"

"Justin, what type of new film is your and Natalie? There is news that it is a thriller science fiction film. Is that true?"

...

The reporters in the audience all scrambled to ask questions, and the entire conference room looked like a vegetable market.

In addition to actively contacting the reporters who Tom Thorenberg wanted to attend, many reporters from newspapers and websites were specially invited by Lions Gate, so the seats in the conference hall were almost full.

Although John Flameer is the CEO of Lionsgate Pictures, he has no right to directly dismiss James Bach, after all, James Bach is also the chief financial officer of Lionsgate Pictures.

To dismiss James, Bach must have a board of directors vote. The people on the board care about who can bring more benefits to the Lions Gate and thus allow them to gain more benefits.

But Chen Tian can, James Batch will drive away Chen Tian, ​​who can bring them rich benefits, which is something they don't want to see.

More importantly, it is not the first time that James Bach has caused an incident like Chen Tian to happen. The Chen Tian incident can only be said to be the fuse of James Bach's dismissal.

It was this fuse that led Lionsgate to discover that James Batch had some financial problems.

Although there was no vacancy, he borrowed Lions Gate funds twice. Although it was filled in a short time, it was still found out.

John Flameer looked at the reporters in the audience: "Disabling James Bach is not a decision that I can make by myself or a few people. This is a collective decision of the board of directors.

We admit that James contributed to the Lions Gate, but dismissed him because of some errors in his work, not just because of Justin.

If James is happy to say it, then I will say it, and I think he will not."

"I'll answer a few questions below." Chen Tian said in response. "First of all, it's the Rita incident. We can't use the real name, which will hurt her family.

I admit that such publicity has attracted everyone's attention, but it is all based on facts.

I have clearly recorded some similar incidents in these newspapers, and I think some of your bosses should also be involved."

Chen Tian paused: "As for promoting the anti-war wave, this is not something that one or two of us can do.

We did have such thoughts. But things unexpectedly happened.

In fact, everyone knows that these things broke out before we started publicity at that time. I couldn’t give up on my first film in my life because of the anti-war wave.

If it weren't for "Buried Live", I wouldn't have been sitting here."

"As for the share agreement between Lionsgate and MGM, I admit that some of what James Batch said is true.

I don't deny that the share agreement I signed looks crazy to many people, but I want to ask you all a few questions.

Michael Bay had 25 million when he filmed "Pearl Harbor", and he had to share it. I don't know "Escape from the Cloned Island", but I think it will definitely not be lower than this data.

Director Peter Jackson took on the global masterpiece "King Kong", and the director fee was $20 million, and the other 20% of the box office share.

James Cameron, Spielberg and others, I don’t think I’ll say it will definitely be a very good number.”

Before Chen Tian could finish his speech, the audience became lively.

"Did he mean that he has reached the same level as James Cameron, Spielberg and others?"

"At least I sound like that, is he too confident? Or is he too stupid?"

"Did I hear it wrong just now? Did he put himself at the top director level?"

"This is a news worth reporting. Justin Chen is better than James Cameron and other super directors."

"Maybe two or three small films have successfully made him too arrogant. It is hard to imagine that an Asian would say such things.

Shouldn’t they be modest at heart? John Wu may be his tomorrow!”

"This is not necessarily the case. Justin Chen looks like a different feeling, at least I like his videos."

"Do you like the feeling of being castrated?"

...

Seeing the scene of the noise in the audience, Chen Tian was not angry at all, but laughed: "I know what you are discussing?

Justin Chen actually compared himself with great directors like James Cameron;

Justin Chen is just a guy who has proved himself in niche movies only in thriller genres;

Justin Chen will die miserably in the future;

Justin Chen is too arrogant, in fact, nothing is;

Wow, I think it should be about these things. I can even imagine that I will definitely grab my page in a limited edition tomorrow, and maybe it will be a big place."

Chen Tian's words and confident expression made the reporters in the audience refocus him.

"Do you want to know why Lionsgate and MGM are willing to work with me? Even if I'm just a little guy?"

As soon as Chen Tian finished speaking, someone immediately asked in the audience.

"Why?"

"Is there any secret?"

"Of course there is." As soon as Chen Tian spoke, the audience immediately calmed down, "I haven't reached the level of James Cameron and others. They don't need to invest and take risks by themselves, nor do they even need to write scripts by themselves. Someone will finish the early and late stages, but I'm not.

From the idea of ​​the movie to the end, I was involved in everything.

And neither Lionsgate nor MGM need to pay for all this. All they have to do is to issue it for me and then take almost no risks.

If there is a free food in front of you, would you consider eating it, and what if it is a food that is hard to refuse?

My work is a food that is hard to refuse, and I can bring benefits to them, and that is the secret of their willingness to work with me.

If I can't see my efforts, I can't see the value of my works.

I can only say if I see the final share agreement and think that everything else is not worth a cent together.”

Chen Tian stood up and looked at all the reporters below, pointing his finger to his eyes and then to his head.

"Those who can't see, I suggest they go and check it out here and here because they need treatment!"

Everyone in the audience was shocked by Chen Tian's words and actions, although they looked arrogant.

But it gives people a feeling of incredible confidence, and its expression and movements make many people feel that everything Chen Tian got is taken for granted.
