"Thank you for your commentary, Todd," Sean said this after his fingers hit the armrest several times, and then he looked at him and asked very seriously, "But, I have a question, Lion Gate

The founder of Frank Gusta, what are you doing now?”

Vladimir did not answer immediately, but was silent for a moment before whining out: "He has stepped down, just after acquiring Telimac Holdings last year."

"Look, this is the problem." Sean pointed out without hesitation.

Although he did not understand the specific situation of the development of the Lions Gate, and although Vladimir said a lot, he still didn't understand some of them very well. However, his intuition told him that when financing and mergers and acquisitions were so frequent, the founder's situation would definitely not be

It would be great, and facts prove it.

Although Sean is not the kind of person who must control something, as the founder, it is really difficult to accept that he was swept out of the house by his own company, and this is not in line with his original idea of ​​establishing a company.

.

Vladimir didn't say anything, but just looked at him quietly, waiting for him to make a choice.

"Well, I need a way to not only raise the company, but not dilute more equity and then get kicked out of the company." After looking at each other for a few minutes, Sean had to say so.

"It can raise funds without diluting more equity..." Vladimir couldn't help but feel a little silenced. After taking a deep breath, he asked: "Tell me, Sean, you originally set up a production company,

What is it for?"

"I want to make movies I want to make without restraint, or in other words, I want to make myself here, Hollywood, and have more say." Sean thought about it, but decided to tell the truth.

"Then you can set up another company, you hold a large part of the shares, and then Mori Films hold a small part of the shares. You can make movies at will and cooperate with Mori Films, but the copyright belongs to you," Vladimir

"Just like Miramax and Dimen Pictures."

"Mila Max and Dimen Pictures?" Sean showed a curious look.

"Yes, Dimen Pictures was also established by the Weinstein brothers, and it also has the copyright of some of the movies produced by Miramax. The previously released "Very Little Spy" was produced by Dimen, and Miramax released it.

So even if Miramax has been acquired by Disney, if both parties turn against each other one day, the Weinstein brothers will not be able to fight back. They will never put eggs in the same basket." Vladimir explained

Said.

"In addition," he suddenly increased his tone, and his eyes looked at Sean became a little subtle, "If you can always make some low-cost and high-box movies for the film company, then it will also reduce the appearance of Gusta.

In that case, on the one hand, you can continue to invest the profits of the movie into the company and maintain your own shareholding in Billy; on the other hand, you can increase your influence as long as you can bring high box office works to the company,

Even if there are many shareholders on the board who are dissatisfied with you, they won’t drive you out.”

This guy...Sean, who noticed his change in his expression, couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart, and at the same time he was a little satisfied. He actually looked up to his intuition so much? But then again, he had been cooperating with him before, no matter whether it was or not.

They all agreed, and even agreed to Miramax, who spoke big, and all of them had gained considerable benefits. If anyone had any, they would have felt incredible.

Besides, if the film company really expands, he can't guarantee that he won't fall to the point of Gusta. So, if Sean can really produce or discover a low-cost and high-box office work from time to time, then stand by him

There is no problem here.

"I will think seriously, Todd," Sean said at the end, "It's still some time before My Grand Greek Wedding goes offline, isn't it?"

"Okay," Vladimir nodded, and said nothing more.

"By the way, what should I do if I have to deal with the matters attached to Miramax?" As I was about to leave, Sean suddenly asked this again.

Previously, he was affiliated with Miramax because the production company was established at a short time and needed to establish a good relationship with a capable film company. Sean only knew Weinstein, so he joined the company. But Reincarnation Film now produces

A popular movie has become quite eye-catching, and it is necessary to continue to be attached to them.

"No problem, I hinted to Weinstein that he didn't say much. Then we can switch from affiliate to cooperation." Vladimir explained.

Since he had already considered this, Sean didn't say anything else. He nodded and said he knew. After saying a few more words to rent a better office, he left here immediately. Then Vladimir gave birth to a

Twinkle, the factory breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the high-back chair, and headed towards the ceiling.

Sean does need time to consider gains and losses. After all, this is an important thing, so he understands his approach. So it’s nothing to make a decision after the movie goes offline, but... can he be satisfied with the final result?

Vladimir didn't know, but he still had some thoughts he wanted to leave. As mentioned earlier, although he was optimistic about the script "My Grand Greek Wedding", he did not expect to gain such a reward.

So many, this movie, with Sean's insistence, allowed Miramax to take advantage of it, and still made many second-tier film companies jealous.

You know, Miramax not only demanded 20% of the issuance commission, but only paid more than 1 million in publicity, but also took away the overseas issuance agency rights. In the current box office sales, the sale will be the same as the ones that are sold.

The net income is available, while the Cyclone Film can only get some box office.

But then again, as a newly established production company, it has no relationship overseas, and it is not easy to contact the publisher. Even if the other party is as sensitive as a DVD seller and takes the initiative to get it, he has not fully understood it.

On the basis of this, it is probably difficult to maximize profits.

So this situation allows Miramax agent to accumulate experience and also sell personal favors. If the company wants to expand, it is necessary to seek various support.

Thinking of this, Vladimir smiled with a little self-deprecating smile. He was really moved and was always thinking about how to make this newly established company bigger. Well, Sean is indeed an interesting person, and he has a certain amount of it.

Ambition and courage, and his intuition seemed to be really sensitive, all of which made him want to see where he could go.

So, what choice will you make then? Vladimir thought silently.

Sean, who didn't know his general manager's mind, didn't think too much. In fact, even if he knew, he wouldn't think too much. How to choose? After leaving the company, he had basically decided. The reason why he didn't tell me

Vladimir also wants to listen to other people's opinions. Even if he doesn't accept them, it will be no harm to listen to other people's opinions more.

In addition, Sean also wants to see how "My Grand Greek Wedding" will perform in the end. Over the past four weeks, with the hot sale of the movie, his position among the two crews has been subtle.

Improvement.

In "Eleven Arhat", at the beginning, Pete and Clooney only regarded him as an ordinary junior. Although they did not call him around, they would often make big jokes. In addition to Qin Shaobo, most of the other actors are like this.

Chandel could even face him coldly and throw his unbearable anger on him.

Moreover, as the media is not optimistic about "My Grand Greek Wedding", some people teased him that it doesn't matter if he goes bankrupt. At least you have done it, but you just vaguely feel like you are watching the show in your tone.

But with the popularity of the movie, these sounds gradually became smaller. In the end, almost no one mentioned this again. He just congratulated him blindly and occasionally cast a few envious gazes. And Clooney and the others were almost about to put him on equality.

In terms of their position, they are more informed and know what role Sean played in this movie. They can set up a simple production company and quickly produce the first movie, and make a big profit with small profits.

Very few people have reached such a high box office.

And the reason is almost because, regardless of age or qualifications, Clooney and Pete are both above Sean, showing off their qualifications in secret, and people in any circle will do this.

As for Chandel, even though he couldn't exaggerate his face, he lowered his posture after Sean took the initiative to say hello to him. Not to mention Carl Affleck, he took a detour in the crew unless he was filmed or gambling.

Generally, two people will not meet, and Sean is too lazy to pay attention to him, and he is clean without seeing him.

"Fast and Furious" is much better. Diesel's acting experience is not much more than Sean. He is more straightforward. He has no conflicts with each other, and his attitude will not change much because of this incident.

As one of the leading actors, there will be no one who will have conflicts with him, and he will not cause trouble, so there is more harmony here and there.

Of course, there will be no less surprise and envy. Diesel patted Sean on the shoulder while drinking and said half-jokingly that if you have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, Sean naturally agreed. Michelle also gave him a lot of advice.

I became quite curious. I found opportunities several times to ask him how he liked the script "My Grand Greek Wedding" and how it was produced, which made Jordanna, who was already in a complicated mood, quite unhappy.

It’s not a big deal that these people are arrogant at first and respectful at the same time, as Frederick said: “Here, in Hollywood, whoever can bring more profits with movies will be more sought after.”

"Okay, I get it, Fred, you've said it a lot," Sean, who was sitting in the car, had to interrupt Frederick on the other side of the phone. "I know you're excited, but I

Now I just want to know if today’s meeting will make me get what I want successfully?”
