"I remember that before the Relativity Entertainment was established, there was only Shahai Entertainment."

In the reception room, Kevin Teshura recalled the friendship between the two companies: "We were working together at that time, and many of your films were filmed and post-production done at Warner Studios."

Ronan smiled and said, "Yes, Shahai Entertainment gives Warner Bros. a large amount of venue and equipment rental fees every year."

Indeed, Shahai Entertainment was working with Warner Bros. in the early days, but Shahai Entertainment used Warner Bros.'s various facilities, not for free, but for real money.

Kevin Tessulhara heard the meaning of Ronan dialect and said, "No matter what, there is a good cooperative relationship between Warner Bros. and Relativity Entertainment."

"That's right." Ronan never denies this: "So, our two families have been working together until now, and I hope we can continue to cooperate."

These words made Kevin Tesuhara frowned without a trace and continue to work together? What to do? Is the "Batman" movie series?

Seeing that the test and the relationship were useless, Kevin Teshura simply gave up and said directly: "Ronan, "Batman" is a key project of Warner Bros. and D Comics, and will be developed in depth in the future. Shahai Entertainment cannot invest in this project for a long time, so..."

Ronan said naturally: "From the beginning of my contact with Charles Rowan, my attitude has been very clear. Kevin, Shahai Entertainment attaches great importance to cooperation with Warner Bros. Considering the years of cooperation between the two parties, we can consider withdrawing from the Batman series. Whether it is facing Charles Rowan or if you come here in person today, my attitude has never changed."

Kevin Teshura knew that things weren't that simple.

"Shahai Entertainment and even the entire Relativity Entertainment Group have paid a lot in the "Batman" movie series." Ronan said for granted: "We cannot withdraw unconditionally."

Hearing this, Kevin Tesuhara simply said: "The copyright of the two old movies, plus a compensation of $30 million."

Ronan said: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that "The Dark Knight" will surely usher in a commercial outbreak, and the subsequent sequels will become popular for a long time. With such conditions, Warner Brothers is not sincere enough, and I can't explain it to the Relativity Entertainment."

Kevin Tesuhara's face looked a little gloomy, and she thought to herself that you are the boss of Relativity Entertainment, so you need to explain it to others?

But he also knew that this was not much better than the conditions Ronankai gave Charles Rowan at the time. Today is different from the past. It is difficult for the same conditions to impress the other party again.

"Where I come on behalf of the sincerity of Warner Brothers." Kevin Tessulhara said: "Ronan, tell me about your conditions."

Ronan said slowly: "Kevin, Relativity Entertainment does not need $30 million in compensation."

As soon as these words were said, Kevin Tesuhara was slightly stunned and instantly understood that the other party didn't want the $30 million, and the conditions he asked for were far more than the $30 million.

Sure enough, Ronan said slowly: "I like d comics very much. I am a fan of d comics. I am very interested in having two superheroes."

Kevin Tesuhara felt something bad, but she still held back and said, "Which two are specific?"

Ronan said calmly: "I remember in the early 1990s, in order to enrich the role of Joker, D Comic created a female partner named Harley Quinn for him, and later Harley Quinn also joined the suicide squad."

Kevin Tesuhara did not respond, and Harley Quinn was just a marginal person in D comics creation, including the entire suicide squad, all belonged to D comics.

"There's another." Ronan is testing Warner Bros., especially Kevin Teshura's bottom line: "Wonder Woman Diana, this is my favorite comic superhero."

Kevin Tesuhara's face immediately changed: "This is impossible!"

Ronan shrugged slightly and emphasized: "These are just two female superhero characters."

"Wonder Woman is one of the three big players in the Justice League. I think you know how important it is." Kevin Tessulhara seems to have no room for negotiation: "Warner Brothers will not transfer the copyright of Wonder Woman, and no conditions will be."

Ronan still wants to try his best to win: "The successful "Batman" series and the Wonder Woman with uncertain future..."

Kevin Tesuhara simply interrupted Ronan: "No need to say it anymore. If you have such a condition, then we don't need to talk about it anymore."

"Okay." Ronan said directly: "We're going to maintain the status quo."

If you don’t talk about it, you won’t be relativistic entertainment.

Seeing Ronan's attitude, Kevin Tesuhara's face became a little gloomy again.

The interview ended up unhappy.

Ronan has basically seen it clearly. If he wants to win the copyright of "Wonder Woman" based on the subsequent investment rights of the "Batman" series as a condition, the possibility is infinitely close to zero. After all, Wonder Woman is a core figure for the entire Justice League.

As for Harley Quinn and the Suicide Squad, there is some hope.

In fact, Ronan is also a huge price. Warner Bros. will be repaid on the spot later. Relativity Entertainment can give up the subsequent rights of the Batman series, but Warner Bros. and D Comics must also provide sufficient compensation.

Before the first weekend of the summer season came, Kevin Tessulhara had another interview with Ronan, and both sides agreed to negotiate.

Warner Bros. formed a small negotiation team led by D Comics executive president Diego Harris, and started negotiations with the representative of Relativity Entertainment headed by Robert Lee.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement on one hand, and the acquisition of the remake of Warner Bros.'s old movie "The Joker" and "The Birth of a Star" was the basis of this deal.

The rest will be discussed slowly.

You should know that what Relativity Entertainment has to give up is not only the investment rights of "The Dark Knight Rises", but Warner Bros. also plans to continue filming the sequel.

In addition, once the transaction is reached, it also means that Relativity Entertainment will give up the long-term income right of the "New Batman" series.

According to Warner Bros.'s plan, the benefits that Relativity Entertainment has to give up may be calculated in units of billions, and Warner Bros. Of course, it will have to pay enough price.

The possibility of getting Wonder Woman is too low. Ronan's request is to get the copyright of "Suicide Squad" as much as possible. If it really doesn't work, Warner Bros. will require a high enough one-time financial compensation.

With the arrival of the summer season, although it was a Marvel superhero movie released on its first weekend, it was "Spider-Man 3" produced and released by Sony Columbia Pictures.

The first two "Spider-Man" movies were a big hit. This one was the finale of the trilogy, so naturally no movie wanted to collide with it head-on.

Whether it is the Hulk Hulk of Relativity Entertainment or the 20th Century Fox's "Pharaohs and the Gods", they all avoided this weekend.

Peter Parker, who is deeply hated in this version, suffers from love, hate, and love.

Director Sam Remy was almost unanimously criticized by Spider-Man fans, and the entire film led by him was heavy to oppression.

Ronan heard Chris mention that during the filming and production of "Spider-Man 3", Sam Remy and senior executives of Sony Columbia Pictures repeatedly clashed violently due to the plot.

Sony Columbia Pictures hopes that the film will be easier, but Sam Remy insists on his own, and in the end, Toby Maguire's face, which has become even more hated.

This also led to the break between Sony Columbia Pictures and Sam Remy. Sony Columbia had originally planned to continue filming the fourth part, but after the conflict with Sam Remy intensified, Sony Columbia decided that this was the end of the trilogy, and then waited for the right time to restart the superhero series.

The entanglement between Sony Columbia Pictures and Sam Remy was almost reflected in this movie.

The films are sometimes very brainless, such as Harry and his housekeeper, the inexplicable transformation of the Sandman, etc. Sometimes they are emotionally heavy, making people feel that Spider-Man seems to be carrying a lot of things.

This also brought the worst-known film in the series of audiences and media.

Fortunately, this is the "Spider-Man" movie. There are two movies in the front that have laid a good audience base, and the film also has enough exciting special effects.

In addition, the ending of the trilogy is also a huge gimmick that attracts the audience.

Amid criticism of "Spider-Man 3", it made a good start for the summer season in 2007. Its first weekend of release in North America, earning $151.11 million in three days.

Such box office numbers undoubtedly make Sony Columbia Pictures extremely pleased.

Regardless of the dispute with Sam Remy, the film has at least achieved commercial success, and Peter Parker is still one of the most popular superheroes in the United States.

Ordinary is also a key factor in the popularity of this version of Spider-Man.

There is also the theme of greater responsibility and greater ability, which is also very consistent with the social environment after 9/11.

Someone once said that after the 9/11 incident, the whole society in the United States gained unprecedented confidence and power because of the "Spider-Man" movie. This is the most positive feedback of the impact a superhero character can have on the real society.

Although this is a bit exaggerated, it can reflect certain facts.

In fact, many people are asking why it was Peter Parker? It probably happened to be because of his ordinaryness.

Although Spider-Man has great power, his growth environment, education level and even thinking mode are still the same as that of an ordinary person.

Just as the most terrifying enemy of Spider-Man shown in the movie is not the Green Demon and Dr. Octopus, but the landlord collects rent.

Later Spider-Man was no longer the heavy or deep hatred of Toby Maguire.

It can only be said that times have changed and the audience of the film has also changed.

The release of "Spider-Man 3" kicked off the success of this summer. Every weekend in May, famous big-name movies will be released.

In the following weekend, the production and release of Twentieth Century Fox, "Pharaohs and the Gods" directed by Ridley Scott will enter the North American film market.
