MTL - Best Actor-v3 Chapter 112 then change one

"Okay, guys, I know you care about me, and I know you've done a lot for me, but... don't worry, it will be fine." Sean said immediately, And gave them a high five respectively.

To be frank, there has been a lot of good news during this period. For example, the TV series of "The Big Bang Theory" has been acquired by Samsara Pictures, which is a relatively clear TV series that Sean doesn't remember much. , so it began to attract attention in the middle of this year, and successfully reached an agreement with one of the creators, Chuck Lorre.

This means that Samsara Pictures will continue to maintain an advantage with other production companies of the same level in TV production.

, but that's a good sign.

"In fact, what we really need are suppliers, so it's them in the first place," explains Neil.

Yes, youtube itself is a channel, or a new media, as long as there are enough high-quality programs, it is not difficult for paid viewing to develop. But in this way, the suppliers are very important. If they join forces and ask for a lot of share, they will leave if they can't agree, which will be a trouble for youtube.

"We can't be too hasty and make them feel profitable, you know, we are the new media, and now give them a chance to enter the new media, so we are the most valuable , if they want to get on the first train, they must give enough benefits." Neil planned this at the beginning.

As a new media, and a new media that is developing very rapidly, it is impossible for several major media groups to ignore it. But since it is an established media group, it is bound to be difficult to turn around and adapt to the new environment immediately, so it is the best choice to cooperate with the existing new media, or even incorporate it into the group.

Only, so far, as far as video sites are concerned, the first youtube, with the support of Sean's funds, is undoubtedly the fastest growing and the largest scale, so they want to If you want to reach out to the new media early, you can't get around it. This is where Neil's confidence and trump card lie.

Therefore, constantly negotiate, constantly exchange conditions, carefully cover your own cards and then peek at others, and then reach an agreement through constant temptation and confrontation.

So, although it is only a few major media groups behind the five major TV stations to stand up, it can indeed be regarded as a victory, and this time with a little push - in late November, Driven by Samsara Pictures, several mid-range production companies, such as Lionsgate, Weinstein, AMC, etc., have reached an agreement with YouTube to start trial operation of paid on-demand services.

So far, the pay-on-demand business has been going smoothly. Although it has only been half a month, it has not played a decisive role, but just by looking at the booming situation, you can see that the time is on their side side. As for Wall Street, since it's been so long and they still haven't responded, then it's better to trust Neil.

This is one aspect, as for the other, Alexander and Suri are both growing up healthy, and it is Suri who caught a little cold in early December, although Katie is not like Naomi So careful and patient, but basically competent as a mother. Camilla and Haydn are still entangled with Sean, sometimes flamboyant and sometimes well-behaved, and his bold style makes him very useful.

He has overcome it, and in addition to his own efforts, he has a large group of friends to help. However, in this regard, it is faced with a situation where there is nowhere to be used.

In the final analysis, facing the owner of the film copyright, the independent film director and producer, as long as they can convince the other party, all problems will not be a problem. But Anderson has undoubtedly sentenced Sean to death in his heart now, and this kind of independent film director has always been self-centered. Weinstein also said that he has a bad temper, and naturally he will not agree no matter what.

"Why don't we try to threaten him, you're a big shot in Hollywood." Galen once suggested that, of course, it was a joke.

Sean is indeed a big man in Hollywood, but there is more than one big man in Hollywood, and there are many more big men. If he is the CEO of a media group, if he is a theater owner, if he is an investor, he can naturally use various methods to make him submit, but unfortunately he is not. Of course, even now, he can create obstacles for Anderson through various connections and finally make him admit defeat, but there are two problems with this.

It's just a movie, they're not Sean, they don't have the intuition to see the future, and they must feel that Sean is making a fuss.

If they come forward and ask Sean to give them face, will Sean give it or not?

And then, the second question is also the more important one, even if he is forced to give in, what if he does not cooperate during the shooting? As I said before, independent filmmakers like Anderson value their own production rights more than anything else. If he is forced to shoot in a hurry, who will bear the consequences?

Well, you can change the director, but don’t forget, one of the highlights of independent movies is the director’s style. Can different directors produce the same effect? Don't forget what Sean's purpose is, don't forget, he worked so hard to give up a series of blockbuster movies such as "Pirates of the Caribbean" and pick and choose to keep it with "The Fast and the Furious" and "Batman Prequels" series. Commercial value, and at the same time, what is the purpose of looking for suitable literary and artistic roles everywhere.

Audiences may like or even be infatuated with Captain Sparrow, but the film academy judges won't, giving a nomination to Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean Part 1, basically That's the limit.

Is this road really that hard? Sean couldn't help sighing in his heart. It was obvious that something that was at your fingertips, but slipped away because of an accident, how could you not be reconciled. In addition, the matter of Zoe and Emily is still unresolved, and Natalie refused to meet in the near future because of the previous matter. Naturally, her mood will not get better. Now it seems that she can only pin her hopes on time.

"Look, it will be fine in a few weeks." Sean said again at this time, forcing a smile.

Galen and the others had nothing to say. They came over and patted him on the shoulder one by one, and then a voice sounded: "What are the roles that are easy to win the Oscar for best actor, Sean?"

The voice came from the direction of the floor-to-ceiling window. Frederick has been standing there against the wall since he came, holding his chin and thinking about the question, until just now he asked aloud.

"What?" Sean didn't know what he wanted to say.

"I mean..." Frederick walked over slowly, staring into his eyes, "You want to hit the Oscars, but can only "There Will Be Blood" hit the Oscars? "

"...What good script did you see?" Sean was not an idiot, he reacted in a few seconds, and immediately clenched his fists.

Frederick did not answer, still staring at him, Sean continued knowingly: "Mad, pervert, madman, has an inhuman side, to suffer and torture , but not too much.”

Frederick still didn't speak, Sean had to think about it again, then snapped his fingers: "Okay, and gay..."

Here, he stopped suddenly, and looked at his agent with wide eyes in surprise.

"Yes, gay." Frederick nodded and admitted, "I know there is such a script, the director is also well-known, and it is a **** biographical film, and the characters are not young. , can give you an advantage, and you may even know a little bit about the character, and hopefully hit the Oscars, so..."

He gestured for two circles and then did not continue. Then, several pairs of eyes in the room turned to Sean.

"Tell me in detail." Sean pondered, then gritted his teeth.

"Okay," Frederick took a deep breath, "You grew up in San Francisco, you must have heard the name Harvey Milk?"

"Harvey...Milk?" Sean frowned and recalled carefully, "Some impressions, he seems to be...the first person to be openly **** in...politics?"

"Yes, Milk was born in the 1930s, grew up in New York, knew his homosexuality very early, moved to San Francisco in the 1970s, and entered politics and began to fight for the **** team rights, confronting conservative groups, and being elected to the Fifth District of the City Management Committee after the city of San Francisco changed the committee’s election system in ’77,” Frederick said.

"And then at the end of '78, he was shot by Dan White with the mayor," Sean continued, "to this day, San Francisco still has an annual event to commemorate him—his business is going to be Made into a movie?"

"Yes, I have exact information, the other party has been in contact with many actors, and there is a lack of funds." Frederick nodded, a hesitant look flashed across his face, as if Something is not good to say.

"This is... a difficult choice." Sean, who grinned and took a breath, hesitated, and looked at his besties.

"I think you can try, Sean," Galen said.

"You want to see him kissing men on the screen? Mr. Tang might kill those who abet his son." Neil called out immediately.

"Mr. Tang is not disgusted with **** teams, and everyone knows... Sean is a **** guy." Galen retorted, "And he has two children."

"Having children can't explain the problem, the media likes to make a fuss." Neil is obviously raising the bar.

"Okay, you two," Sanders stopped them, then looked at Frederick, "Fred, you have nothing to say."

Sean didn't notice, he did.

"Yes," Frederick did not hide, "director and producer Gus Van Sant."

"...Damn!" Sean, who was stunned for a few seconds, then waved his fist angrily.
