Chapter 369 Digging a pit for Warner

Christopher Nolan was quite surprised when he heard Ronan's name, because he had never considered Batman before, and no one knew that since the crushing defeat of "Batman and Robin", Warner Bros. and DV Comics announced that the Batman series' adaptation was sealed indefinitely.

But then I thought about it, besides the comics superhero, it seems that Batman is indeed very suitable.

A protagonist who is active in the dark, a hero with deep hatred and deep suffering...

From the most basic perspective of human nature, Bruce Wayne not only acts in the dark, but also has darkness in his heart.

At this moment, Christopher Nolan felt that Batman was really suitable.

"Bruce Wayne is really good." Christopher Nolan frowned: "But the "Batman" movies..."

Ronan said: "The previous "Batman" series has completely broken the series, and even Warner Bros. and DC Comics have lost confidence."

Christopher Nolan said: "Who said it was not."

When he thought of George Clooney's outfit, he felt a chill.

Ronan has a clear purpose and plan for coming here this time, and said directly: "If Warner Bros. and DC Comics can feel that they can take risks again, we may not have the chance to restart Batman."

"We?" Christopher Nolan quickly grasped the key to Ronan's dialect: "Restart?"

Ronan said directly: "Sony Columbia Pictures' Spider-Man is about to be released. I watched the internal preview of this film through relationships. According to my judgment, this film will not only succeed, but will also create a brilliant that a superhero movie has never been."

He glanced at Christopher Nolan and continued: "Once Spider-Man's achievements are dazzling, Warner Bros. and DC Comics will definitely think of their own superheroes."

Christopher Nolan smiled and said, "Bruce Wayne is really good for the dark style, but Ronan, I never thought about making a superhero movie."

Ronan was a little surprised because in the behind-the-scenes "Batman" that I watched in my previous life, Christopher Nolan said that shooting a Batman movie has always been his dream.

Sure enough, film companies do everything they can to promote.

"Chris, besides Bruce Wayne, I wouldn't have any better characters and subjects." Ronan said directly: "Have you seen "The Return of the Dark Knight" created by Frank Miller in 1986?"

He added: "Frank Miller brings a dark world and a darker person to life to the readers, and Bruce Wayne turns from Gotham's patron saint to a real person."

Christopher Nolan is a very smart person. Ronan can lead so many successful videos in a row, so his eyes must be unique.

"I'll take a look at this comic seriously," he said in an extremely serious manner. "Ronan, do you want to work with me on a new Batman movie?"

This is a smart guy, and Ronan didn't hide it, saying, "Since you told me that night of the premiere, I thought of "The Return of the Dark Knight". I want to restart the Batman series, create a new Batman trilogy, and make Bruce Wayne a real person. Just as you're ready to shoot a dark style film, I think you'll be a good choice."

Christopher Nolan bluntly stated the most difficult thing: "Warner Bros. and DC Comics cannot give us copyright, even if we spend money, we can't buy it."

This is a very realistic problem, unless a super sky-high price is thrown out, it is absolutely impossible for Warner Bros. and DC Comics to give up the most valuable superhero in their hands.

Ronan has already made plans and has carefully considered the cooperation model of Legend Pictures and Warner Bros. in the Batman trilogy in the past life, saying: "We can develop a plan that is enough to impress Warner Bros. and DV comics, so that they can restart the Batman series, so that Sandhai Entertainment can obtain relevant shooting licenses for DC Comics."

He briefly explained: "Photographed by Shahai Entertainment and Warner Bros. Shahai Entertainment only shares the benefits rather than copyright and distribution."

This is just a preliminary idea. What's going on? It still needs to be negotiated later with Warner Bros. and DC Comics.

Christopher Nolan is a very important part of this plan. Without Christopher Nolan in charge of the guide, Ronan would not have participated.

It is impossible to get the copyright of the movie that is the superhero from Warner Bros. and DC Comics, so you can only find a way to share the profits.

Large Hollywood companies have never refused to reject other production companies in investment in high-risk projects, which can effectively share risks.

Ronan remembers very clearly that the previous life of Christopher Nolan's version of the "Batman" trilogy and "Inception" were filmed by Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures.

Of course, all of these videos are released by Warner Bros.

As long as you hold the distribution rights tightly, Warner Bros. is enough to guarantee the profits of its own after the success of the movie.

Ronanken worked with Christopher Nolan before his success in order to not only the Batman trilogy, but also other movies by Christopher Nolan.

Even if everything goes according to the plan, it is impossible to get the distribution rights of the Batman trilogy, but what about the original movies of Christopher Nolan? The copyright has nothing to do with Warner Bros. and DC Comics. It can be invested and produced by Shahai Entertainment and distributed globally by Embassy Pictures.

Of course, there are disadvantages to doing this. Once Warner Bros. determines that Christopher Nolan is of great value and Christopher Nolan is willing to cooperate with Relativity Entertainment, the subsequent relationship will be subtle...

Indeed, it is free for anyone to cooperate with anyone. This is also a so-called democratic and free society, but there are too many things about business chaos in this world.

Fortunately, according to Ronan's overall development plan, Relativity Entertainment will not be like this now.

He himself divided all companies in Hollywood with a relatively rough division of strength, the lowest of which were micro-companies that made rough video tapes and mill movies, such as Sand Sea Entertainment in the early and mid-1990s.

Upside is a small film company and a celebrity's bag studio.

One level higher than this are purely medium-sized production companies, such as Carlok Pictures and Orion Pictures before bankruptcy, which have no distribution capabilities.

Then there are medium-sized film companies, which have relatively strong production capabilities and good distribution capabilities. For example, DreamWorks, New Line Company and Relativity Entertainment can all be included in this level.

Next is large film companies, which have heavyweight voice and a complete industrial chain in the industry. The six major Hollywood companies are representatives.

Film and television are only part of the entertainment industry. Today, the six major Hollywood companies have become part of the entertainment media group, and above these large film companies, there are also entertainment media groups.

For example, Sony Entertainment, Time Warner, Walt Disney and News Corp.

Most of the traditional Hollywood film companies have not developed into entertainment media groups. Since the 1980s and 1990s, they have been acquired by entertainment media groups and become important content suppliers.

In the whole of Hollywood, there is only Walt Disney, which has grown from a traditional studio and distribution brand to an entertainment media group.

But Walt Disney is now weak and has indigestion after annexing ABC TV.

Above the entertainment media groups, there are also super large entertainment groups, which are all leaders in the entire industry, such as Walt Disney in his previous life.

Under Robert Iger's control, Walt Disney not only successively ate many small and medium-sized companies, but later swallowed up most of the business and assets of Twentieth Century Fox.

Ronan's rough plan allows him to roughly see the position of Relativity Entertainment. Among micro companies, small companies, medium-sized companies, medium-sized companies with issuance capabilities, large companies, entertainment media groups and super entertainment media groups, Relativity Entertainment is undoubtedly still in the middle.

As long as relativity entertainment can squeeze into the ranks of entertainment media groups, it will have certain strength to withstand pressure from all sides.

Nowadays, DreamWorks attract firepower in front of you. Relativity Entertainment can develop in a vulgar way, but DreamWorks always fall down one day, and Relativity Entertainment always faces various competitions in the industry.

The competition cannot be avoided, and can only face difficulties. Just like Ronan did with Christopher Nolan, we must seize the opportunity to gather resources to enhance the company's strength.

Ronan and Christopher Nolan exchanged many views with Batman on the dark style. This is only the first time to talk about specific projects. Christopher Nolan still has the work to do in "White Night Chase" and it is impossible for Christopher Nolan to give a direct answer.

"Chris, if you have time, take a look at "The Return of the Dark Knight"." Ronan reminded before leaving: "Please consider my suggestions carefully."

Given Ronan's reputation for success, Christopher Nolan said very seriously: "I will look for "The Return of the Dark Knight" tonight."

Ronan shook hands with Christopher Roland and said goodbye, and went to the studio of the Shahai Entertainment Project crew.

In fact, he wouldn't say something to anyone, because only Ronan himself understood that the more successful Christopher Nolan's "Batman" trilogy is, the more beneficial it is for him to hold the copyrights of the Avengers in his hand.

This is also a difficult pit for Warner Bros. to dig a difficult pit for them.

In his previous life, the real version of Batman was a huge success, which not only allowed Warner Bros. to enjoy high dividends, but also brought endless troubles, which to a certain extent caused the DC's Justice League plan to be greatly affected.

The traces left by this copyrighted master are too heavy, and they appear in Justice League or other DC superhero movies...

Think about the scolding that the big book caused at that time.

Moreover, the influence of the dark style makes the Justice League dying.
