As the former executive chairman of Paramount Pictures, to be honest, Robert Freeman was tired of Paramount's factional struggles and the excessive interference of his parent company Viacom and the Redstone family in the film company.

Since Shirley Lansing left Paramount in 2004, Paramount has lost its direction and acquired DreamWorks in 2005. The entire Paramount seems to have entered the DreamWorks era and rely too much on the great director Spielberg.

When Robert Freman left Paramount, Spielberg officially launched his "Transformers" project. The main reason why Robert was convinced by the pinnacle founder Pierce was that he also had a film company that developed through his own efforts to equal the six major film companies.

He has great ambitions, but the ups and downs ahead, especially in the previous few months, the continued internal friction made him think that his ambitions and Pierce were more like a joke.

Who knew that the situation suddenly changed, but things developed to a point where no one expected it. He was really entrusted with an important task by the young boss who was only 22 years old in front of him. Everything came so exciting and joyful.

"Boss, my idea is to position the segmented market, low-cost portfolio investment, in-depth mining of derivative income, stable cash flow of copyright database, resource leverage for cooperative filming, and diversified financing channels and financial platforms, which are also important means to increase yields and reduce risks."

Andy listened carefully to Robert Freman's development plan and knew that what he planned was a successful growth path for building a film company without the support of the powerful consortium behind it.

"Tingfeng was a distribution company before. Although he had many movie copyrights, it is probably impossible to achieve the copyright library if it wants to form a stable cash flow." Carl said lightly. He was very concerned about copyright matters. After all, he is now eating this bite in Hollywood.

"Of course I know this, but we hold three killer weapons in our hands, and even the six are not giving in too much. The three series "Dance Out of My Life", "Twilight" and "The Hunger Games", do you think those investment banks and private equity funds will be stingy with the US knife in their hands? Do you believe it or not, I will speak out today and if I want to raise funds to shoot any series, there will be a lot of people waving checks to invest on their doorstep?

But everyone knows that such a big-selling series will not be invested by film companies for others to invest in, so the best way now is to continue to make funds for small-cost movies, take out good scripts and find big companies to cooperate in filming films, and save money to invest in our own series of movies. Through these three series, we can establish our leadership position in Hollywood youth films.

As for the film library, we can find some film companies facing bankruptcy to acquire them, and even banks to purchase loans, introduce people from Wall Street to carry out private equity financing."

Andy touched his chin and thought carefully. He and Carl had a problem with one thing. He had a special preference for copyright IP. He seemed to have thought of something. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his hand touching his chin stopped, and he looked up at Robert.

"Rob, do you know Legend Pictures?"

"Well, I know, it is a film investment company founded by a group of investors who don't understand movies. It's similar to Relativity Media. If you don't play well, it's going bankrupt. After all, the recovery cycle and accounting of the film business have a long cycle characteristics, which creates a large amount of capital demand. These cash flow needs are compensated by rounds of borrowing. The breakdown of the capital chain is just a matter of time."

Andy expressed his admiration for Robert Freeman's professionalism. This is the real talent. Everything in Hollywood is Menqing, and it is not comparable to Carl's half-baked level.

"I mean, they signed a cooperation agreement with Warner, and even some of Batman's IP intellectual property was divided by them. My "Inception" was also introduced to Legend Pictures by Warner. You said, if I bought Superman, which they had already played, and what would you think, if I bought the gorilla, and the Wonder Woman and the Flash?

Robert Freman looked at the young boss in a daze, his mouth twitched a few times, and the black line on his forehead looked at the fat man rolling his eyes, but there was no surprise at all, and he complained wildly in his heart, "Is this what to do with it?" He really dared to think that unless Warner's people are crazy, even if Warner agrees, the DC people will not hand over their heroes to others."

"Ahem, boss, this is a bit unrealistic. Whether it is Warner or DC, you would rather ruin the copyright in your hands than sell it to other companies. It is possible to cooperate in shooting. Maybe you can get some copyrights for IP derivatives, but if you want to buy it, boss, you should not think about it."

"No, no, Rob, how can you know if you didn't try it? Didn't Carl buy the "Mad Max" series some time ago? So, everything is possible..."

"What? You bought "Mad Max"?" Robert Freman was very surprised when he heard the boss's words. He looked at the fat man beside him. For the first time, he felt that this fat man was still a little capable.

Carl's smug lips raised, his eyebrows raised and his hands were spreading, looking like he was not bad, so easy to be beaten.

After frowning and thinking for a while, Robert Freman said to the boss who was waiting patiently: "Boss, don't think about Superman. They won't even let us participate in investment. DC is not amazing. They need to make a profit by selling the copyrights of their superheroes. They have built their own superhero team very early on. It is difficult to get the copyright of their superheroes. Whether it is Wonder Woman, Flash, and Arrow, they are the protagonists of their comics. It is very difficult, really difficult.

It is possible that King Kong, after all, I have been photographed many times and the value is not very high. I have hope of signing it after paying some price."

Andy was slightly disappointed, and he knew he was a little whimsical. After all, the DC comics were integrated by Warner Bros., and countless superhero movies were made. It is not comparable to Marvel Comics, which is completely incomparable to the ones who are dying.

When Rob saw the boss with a disappointed face, he gritted his teeth and said, "Or, I'll go and test it. I heard that Warner has started the Wonder Woman project, but it's stuck again due to the script. Perhaps there is a glimmer of hope. If it really doesn't work, it's okay to get some copyright. After all, the DC comics have been very frustrated in recent years. If it weren't for Nolan, Batman would have died like Superman."

"Haha, okay, then I'll leave it to you. I hope you can bring me good news. I'll leave it to you here. I'll go to the new office to see..."

Andy smiled with satisfaction. He was still a little unwilling to give up. Besides, if you don’t try it, how could you know that it’s impossible. After that, he patted his butt and went to see him go to the new office of Tingfeng Entertainment.

The fat man Carl also stood up and wanted to follow him, but was grabbed by Robert Freman behind him.

"Carl, we have to talk..."

Carl looked back at Robert Freman with a kind smile and felt uncomfortable, and even an idiot knew that this old guy had something to plot against him.

"Don't look at me like this. We have worked together for so long. In this way, I treat you tonight, let's have a drink together..."

"Your smile is a bit creepy..."

"Haha, don't say that, tell me how you got the copyright of "Mad Max"..."

Carl showed a funny expression on his face and shook his head and said, "It turns out that I want to make this idea. You can talk about it, but hehe, you can't give me any less of the interests of my copyright company, and share the box office, and derivatives around it."

Robert Freman twitched a few times, his eyes flashed, and he reached out to put his hand on the fat man's arm and smiled: "Haha, it's easy to say, it's all a family, it's easy to say..."

Carl rolled his eyes. The old guy was scolding him just now. Now he begged for himself and is a family again.

Andy naturally didn't know how Rob and Carl were plotting against each other. He saw that Pierce's original office had been cleaned up, and it was not a little bit worse than his office in the Newsweek building.

However, it is quite good. It has very modern decorations. Whether it is a desk or a sofa, there are movie posters framed in photo frames on the walls, including movie posters produced and distributed by companies such as "Two Big Bullies", "Vanilla Sky" and "Smiths".

Andy sat in a comfortable boss chair with a relaxed and comfortable smile on her face. Another puzzle on her career map was obtained.
