How did Diorama get to where it is today

The reason why they joined forces to drive Lance away was because Lance's decision was too bold, too aggressive, and too many risks, almost pushed the company onto the wire rope, shaking and terrifying. Therefore, after driving the uncertainty out of the company, they regained the decision-making power of the company. Shouldn't they return to the original track? According to Ryan's previous plan, don't be greedy, don't be radical, don't take risks, and make steady progress. Maybe the company will not usher in an explosive opportunity for breakthrough, but at least they will not face the precarious danger on the edge of the cliff.

But in fact, how did they do it?

The emergence of the "City of God" made them in a mess. The defeat of "Lost Tokyo" in a head-on battle disrupted the overall plan, so curbing the rise of Chaos Film became another task, because they knew better than anyone that there was an endless situation between them and Lance. "Troy" was a project born under such a background, followed by the "Twelve Arhats" and then the "Sahara Cavalry"

Before they knew it, they also embarked on the road of letting go. In addition to the "Twelve Arhats" being the planned project, "Troy" and "Saharan Cavalry" can be said to be accidents, and these two works are adventure choices for heaven and hell overnight. Unfortunately, "Troy" and "Twelve Arhats" have failed one after another. Now, they must bear the consequences of adventure.

If they were not so radical, after choosing "Troy", slow down, wait for the results of the "Twelve Arhats" to be released, and then re-form a plan, in other words, they are not in such a hurry to start the production of the "Saharan Cavalry", then even if both "Troy" and "Twelve Arhats" fail, they can still take a breath and slow down their pace now.

After loopholes in the capital chain, adjust the strategy, seek financing from venture capital companies or bank loans, and then wait for an opportunity to find more suitable and more secure projects, whether they are works of art or commercial films, or seek more insured cooperation projects, so that the company can gain more time to adjust.

But now, they have no more choice. The "Saharan Cavalry" must win and gain breathing space for them. Otherwise, without waiting for the release of new works, the company is likely to be dragged down by a huge black hole in funds, and the worst case scenario is to declare bankruptcy.

It's really ironic. In a silent voice, the "Saharan Cavalry" became the last straw in their hands. Ryan dared not assert whether this was a life-saving straw or a straw that broke the camel's back.

How did all this happen? Why did it completely deviate from the track. Maybe, at the beginning, they chose to "exit" because of Lance's courage and radicalism, because of power, self-esteem, or because of jealousy. So when faced with the opportunity to attack Lance, he chose to take action without hesitation; so in order to defeat Lance, he took risks wildly without hesitation

Ironically, their choice ended up returning to the track of Reims.

Inexplicably, Ryan remembered the expression of the day Lance was swept out, "Tell me, it's not because of Harry Potter." He denied it, but the handsome face had an incredible expression, ridicule, contempt, contempt, shock, pain, and mixed emotions were thrown hard on his face like a slap.

So, is all this controlled by Lance behind the scenes? Ryan doesn't know, he doesn't want to know, nor does he need to know, because the rise and fall of Diorama Film has been related to Lance from the beginning, and it has never been separated from beginning to end. Lance is like a mountain, pressing heavily on their heads. Even if Lance leaves, the competition between them and Lance does not stop. "Lost Tokyo" lost to "City of God", "Troy" lost to "the day after tomorrow", and "Twelve Arhats" lost to "killing with a knife". On the road to collapse of Diorama Film, Lance can be seen at almost every step.

But, is this important

It doesn't matter, because when they chose to betray Lance and teamed up to sweep Lance out, they already stood opposite Lance and remained unrest. Unless one party completely lost its ability to resist, the war would not end. This is what they are, and so is Lance.

The only thing Ryan cares about is that he did not completely take away the adaptation rights of "City of God" and allowed Lance to gain breathing space. Otherwise, they would be the one who stood here to celebrate the victory today, and the one who was hanging on the line and survived was Lance.

"Ryan" looked at Tucker with a depressed look on his face, Jason let out a long sigh and turned to look at Ryan.

At the premiere of "Troy", his confrontation with Lance was like a nightmare. It has been lingering in the past six months. Several times, he wanted to tell Ryan and Tuckles that they were no longer the person they remembered, but they could not say anything because they were no longer what they were. He had no right to accuse Lance, right?

But now, the company is already standing on the edge of a cliff. Should he take the initiative to tell the matter, otherwise, the next thing that will be destroyed is Diorama Film.

Jason couldn't help but clenched his fists into a fist, thinking about how he should speak, but he heard Ryan speak, "Is that important?" The dull voice failed to break the gloom in the office. Jason just stood there without looking up, "It was a life-and-death situation between us and him. Now, what's the point of pursuing him if he is the mastermind behind the scenes? If it's him, are you going to come to the door and kneel down and beg him to let go?"

Tucker raised his eyelids, a light flashed in his eyes, and then it dimmed again. He didn't say anything, but just sneered softly, his emotions were unknown.

"We have no way out now. The Sahara cavalry is the last chance. Only when this movie succeeds can we win a chance to breathe." Ryan's thoughts were cleared up in his mind, and he cheered up, "So, we can't take the publicity after the New Year begins," he said.

Jason suddenly raised his head, publicity, and again, Ryan actually put his desperate bet on publicity

Ryan felt Jason's eyes at once. In recent times, they had quarreled over this issue countless times, so they stopped talking. During the premiere of "Twelve Arhats", they all came to the Chinese Theater separately.

Ryan did not avoid this time and directly faced Jason, "Are you still so naive about the quality of the film? A good work, without excellent publicity, the audience will never buy it. This is the essence of modern commercial society. So, you are right, the quality of the work must be checked, and we must do our best to ensure that the movie is worth the price; but at the same time, the publicity must not be relaxed, this is our last chance."

Jason's clenched fists slowly loosened. He knew what Ryan meant. If they got the chance, they would never let Lance go. They would definitely force Lance to the corner and make him unable to turn over. He also knew that Ryan's meaning "Saharan Cavalry" was their last move. If the movie also lost, it was very likely that Diorama Film would not have the next work. They must now accumulate all their energy to launch the final blow, and the publicity link was the top priority. The ridiculous thing is that Ryan and Tucker had already understood this, but he still held the unrealistic so-called "dream", because Lance showed his dark face at the "Troy" premiere and was worried and anxious all day long.

Is he expecting what he and Lance can reconcile again, expecting that he can concentrate on making the movie, and then proving that he expects him to defeat Lance openly through the film work or is he expecting Lance to forgive his choice

The words poured to his mouth swallowed, turning into bitterness. Jason lowered his head, his chin was so messy that his chest was tingling.

Ryan withdrew his gaze, then grabbed the calendar on the table and threw it directly at Tucker, which made Tucker fumed. Even though he sat up again, he still didn't dodge and was hit by the calendar, "Grass, cheer me up. Now it's not a matter of winning or losing. If the Sahara cavalry fails this time, there will be no future. So, we are not fighting with Lance, but competing with the market." Between life and death, Lance is secondary, and survival is the primary thing.

Tucker sat upright, but was still a little absent-minded. "Taktuck" Ryan shouted twice in a row, which made Tucker raise his head, "Did you forget that the day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and the two works of killing people with a knife have created miracles when they are not favored. Others don't understand the reason. Didn't you see the correct publicity strategy, accurate publicity methods, and in place for publicity. Both movies have gained unlimited attention before they were released, and after they were released, they were combined with effective publicity, so they achieved incredible success."

"But, we have invested too much money, and we don't have more money now." Tucker shrugged speechlessly and complained. The repeated failures in succession have defeated his confidence.

"Silly" Ryan interrupted Tucker's words directly, which made Tucker stand up angrily, but Ryan didn't care. "Very good, at least you still know how angry you are. Have you forgotten that if the Sahara cavalry fails, there will be no future. So, we must mobilize all the resources in our hands to express our support for this work. This is the last try." Ryan let out a long sigh and looked at Jason, "Of course, there is the Rwanda Hotel, we are in a good situation now."

If the "Rwanda Hotel" can win the Little Golden Man at the Oscar, the situation will be different.

Ryan clenched his hands into fists, "It's now, the so-called moment of life and death is now." Ryan looked at Jason, then looked at Tucker, "Believe me, you won't want to lose to Lance." The fists clenched again, getting tighter and tighter, until the veins burst. To be continued.
