It’s not that you lack courage, so you are afraid; it’s because you understand, so you are worried.`

Diorama Film was created and developed by Ryan, Lance, Tucker and Jason, who jointly developed the work together. The four of them perform their own duties and play their roles, and each person is irreplaceable. Among them, Lance has always been responsible for the work selection work.

Of course, it cannot be said that Lance is a sharp-eyed eye. It was a hundred times. Behind the success, Lance has experienced many failures like countless top producers. For example, the "Call of the Dead" in 1999. Although this work was only invested 13 million, its poor box office performance caused the company to lose more than 8 million US dollars; for example, the "Player Club" in 1998 not only lost all the awards, but also suffered losses of up to 6 million US dollars.

However, it is undeniable that his keen observation of scripts is indeed admirable. Compared with failed works, the many successful works are even more eye-catching. This has also made Diorama Film start its business with reputation in the past six years and has won a good reputation in the field of art films. Even commercial films like "Eleven Arhats" have still won a lot of prizes. It can be said that Lance's erotic vision is indelible.

No one knows this better than Ryan, Tucker, and Jason.

In fact, this is also an important reason why Ryan expelled Lance from the company - Lance does not care about box office, public relations, Oscars, and is devoted to thinking about the works as a point of view. For example, works like "Elephant" are even the release of art theaters, and even if they win awards, it is difficult to bring more benefits to the company; for example, works like "Pirates of the Caribbean" ignore the ability of Diorama and bet on all odds. This makes internal differences between management more and more serious.

But the problem is that Lance's success rate is very good, which makes the company's internal control go off track, not only threatening Ryan's management authority in the company, but also threatening the commercial interests of Diorama Film. Therefore, it finally caused a rebellion, and Lance was finished with nothing left.

Now, when Jason mentions Lance's "playing ability" again, no one can ignore it. Even rationality is like Ryan, and if it is really like Jerson said, "Troy" is a trap, and Lance has already predicted the disastrous ending of this work, then this chilling sense of fear will penetrate into everyone's bone marrow like a gangrene attached to the bone.

Jason only felt his brain was in a mess. The fear of falling from high altitude was far inferior to the emptiness of being unable to touch 6, which made him at a loss - because after Lance left, the heavy responsibility of film selection fell on his shoulders, and his pressure was greater than that of anyone and more direct.

"You said, 'Saharan Cavalry', why don't we forget?" This was Jason's first reaction.

"You're crazy!" Tucker shouted directly, how much effort he spent on getting in love for the cooperation of this project. Howard Baldwin was not a fool. Tucker stared at Jason with wide eyes, but he didn't know how to refute it, "You...you..." After hesitating for a long time, he finally said in a hurry, "Lance is not a prophet, how could he know everything? Listen to yourself, even if Lance is conspiracy-that sounds too ridiculous, haha." Tucker laughed dryly. If Lance is good at scheming, he wouldn't have been driven away so easily.

"Even if he really becomes smart and cunning, how could he be sure that Troy will fail? Without saying anything else, just say Harry Potter. If he was so sure at the beginning, this work would definitely be successful, then after Ryan and I sold the adaptation rights to Warner Brothers, he did not see him reacting further. He still compromised! What does this mean? This means that he does have vision, but no matter how smart, powerful, or cunning the producer is. 8 Novels `No one can ensure that a work will succeed 100% or a work will fail 100%!"

No one can refute Tucker's words, even Lance himself cannot. Any movie has risks, but the difference is just the size of the risk. The reason why Hollywood is more willing to shoot sequels is because the sequels are less risky, but no producer dares to guarantee that the sequel will definitely succeed - countless failed sequels are produced.

At the end, Tucker was even a little hoarse, his excitement was uncontrollable, and his brain was blank. He just relied on his innocence to survive and said a lot. But after he finished speaking, Tucker found that his random words were very reasonable, which made him more confident. Not only him, but even Jason was speechless. Compared to Jason's conspiracy theories, Tucker's statement was obviously more reasonable, more realistic, and easier to accept.

Jason wanted to refute, but opened his mouth, but found that the strangeness in his heart could not be found in suitable language to describe it, and in the end he could only be stiff in place.

Ryan still felt overwhelming—in his mind, not his stomach, but at least he had already controlled his vomiting. He raised his head and wiped the stains on the corner of his mouth. "Tuck is right. He is not a prophet, so don't scare yourself." Ryan made the final decision on this matter. Jason raised his head, looked at Ryan, looked at Tucker, and finally swallowed his words. "Think about it carefully, he just chose two works, "City of God" and "After the Day", we have experienced such things before, right? But there is no need for us to panic. No one can succeed forever, and no one will fail forever - at least we won't. So, we should not take these two failures too seriously."

Chaos Film's rise is really too fast, and Lance and their irreconcilable situation have led to their inconsistency.

In fact, even if "City of God" and "After Absolutely Acquisition" succeeded continuously, Chaos Film can only be regarded as a small-scale third-tier production company in the industry. Five or six such production companies will appear every two years - launch one or two excellent works, attracting attention in the industry, but they are weak and then slowly disappear, or the quality of the works is uneven and they are always lukewarm.

In the past thirty years, there are only three film companies that have truly come into the public eye: DreamWorks, New Line Pictures and Miramax. This shows that the difficulty is so great.

Now, Diorama is undoubtedly one of the closest companies to this goal, and there is no need to panic at all. Imagine their panic, the more Ryan feels that the deep sense of shame is imprinted in the bone marrow that it cannot be ignored. The only solution is to take back the initiative again, just like expelling Lance from the company!

"'Sahara Cavalry' is a project we unanimously passed. Don't give up easily because of a little turmoil." Ryan's confidence finally became firm. Although his face was still pale, his eyes no longer swayed. Not only did Ryan, Tucker and Jason watch the "Sahara Cavalry" project, but George also gave opinions. Finally, he made the decision, "This is Hollywood, the size of a palm. Almost every work involves countless people, and even many rumors are still rumor. We grab every project that Lance has come into contact with, which is impossible; we reject every project that Lance has learned, which is also impossible."

"Jason, what you said, we should focus on ourselves, always stick to ourselves, choose works that meet our expectations and requirements, and not be influenced by others, right?" Ryan finally brought the words back to Jason. If they really gave up the idea of ​​"Saharan Cavalry" because of Lance, this would be a real joke.

Jason knew that Ryan was hypnotizing himself, but he couldn't refute it because what Ryan said was the truth. But the inner uneasiness made him unable to settle down easily. Think about it carefully, the "Saharan Cavalry" was recognized by both Ryan and George. Both of them were very cautious guys, and George also had his own opinions on the script and director.

Thinking of this, Jason lowered his head and avoided his sight, which was considered to be accustomed to Ryan's statement.

Ryan nodded vigorously, and the situation gradually returned to control. This feeling of controlling the overall situation made him full of confidence. "From the current situation, the decline of 'Troy' next week will not be very good." The impact of "Monster Shrek 2" is not only targeting the "day acquired" but also targeting "Troy". This is an indiscriminate attack. "We will relax our minds in the box office in the United States. If we can exceed 150 million, we should laugh. Now all our attention must be focused on overseas markets, especially in European and Asian markets. Brad's appeal in Japan and South Korea is so strong, and there is Orlando, we must not waste it easily."

Ryan straightened his backbone. Recently, he was forced to run away by Lance, Ryan regained his confidence and his eyes fell on Tucker and Jason. "Overseas market, this is our next battlefield! In these territories, the 'day acquired' garbage cast lineup can't play any role at all. It depends on us to take back the advantages bit by bit!"

This is not Ryan's confidence, but Hollywood's confidence: thanks to the maturity of the Hollywood film industry, many bad movies performed particularly well in overseas markets, especially "strong casts, wonderful special effects, and wise publicity". Success is often easy to get, and it is tried and tested. The battlefield of "Troy" is indeed overseas.

However, the outcome of the overseas market has not been announced yet, but what is certain is that in North America, the nightmare of "Troy" is still not over.
