Chapter 588: Hello, Godfather

Ryan quickly put the party behind Schwarzenegger, which appears in Hollywood every day. What's special is undoubtedly involved in the upcoming California governor's election.

As for the person who thought his head was not normal at the time, he had almost no impression, and he would never have thought that there was indeed something wrong with the other party's head.

Compared to these, Ryan is more interested in "Terminator 3". This movie was unanimously criticized by the media and audience after its release, but in his opinion, the film is still improving compared to the previous life. At least the choice of male and female protagonists is much better, and he did not choose a pair of crooked melons and jujubes like in the previous life.

Of course, the "Terminator" series has been sold to 20th Century Fox, and Ryan only paid a little attention and confirmed it in his memory.

The next day, Ryan waited for Roland Emmerich at Disney and roughly reviewed the script brought by the other party, and confirmed it was "The Day Afternoon".

"Well, Roland, Disney will invest in your movie."

In the office of Disney headquarters building, Ryan put down the script and said to the director opposite through the desk, "I will inform Disney Pictures... Well, our people will discuss investment matters as soon as possible."

"How much investment do you expect?" he asked again.

"At least $100 million." Roland Emmerich was not polite, either, his movie was special effects.

Nodding, Ryan stood up and stretched out his hand. When the other party held it, he said, "Okay, this must be a pleasant cooperation."

"It must be!"

Roland Emmerich sighed in his heart. Ryan is much happier than Sony Entertainment. Those people, a project, want to talk to you about the first half of the year.

Sending Roland Emmerich away, Ryan sat behind his desk. He only needed to understand most of Disney's affairs, and the focus was on the movies.

Nowadays, the degree of globalization is getting higher and higher. Last year, Disney's works have entered the final stage of the global screening, and most of them have been offline.

In the past year, the highest-grossing global box office was "The Lord of the Rings: The Twin Towers". Although the movie lost to "Spider-Man" in North America, it made a beautiful comeback overseas and achieved a box office of more than 980 million US dollars worldwide. Although the screenings in several small areas have not yet ended, the box office will definitely not exceed the hurdle of $1 billion.

As the North American box office champion last year, "Spider-Man" is also popular overseas, entering all overseas markets that Hollywood movies can enter, with a global box office of more than 820 million US dollars, second only to "The Lord of the Rings 2: The Twin Towers".

Another movie he starred in, "Captain America", has had a global box office of just over $580 million so far, which has greatly exceeded surprise expectations. The spread of terrorism around the world has helped the film somehow.

As for small productions such as "The Princess Diary", the income is quite considerable compared to investment.

Judging from the current situation, "Spider-Man" and "The Lord of the Rings 2: The Two Towers" can both make profits at the box office, and "Captain America" ​​can barely recover the cost. But the biggest income of these movies still comes from the surrounding areas.

In fact, when it comes to profitability, animated feature films like "Monster Shrek" are horrible. The movie produced by DreamWorks Animation Studio has also exceeded US$600 million in the world so far, but its peripheral revenue is more than doubled by "Captain America".

Animation film production cycle is long and the cost is high, and once successful, it will bring huge benefits.

Pixar Studio's "Looking for Nemo" will be released soon. This movie, which was mobilized by China Film Group in its previous life, is the pinnacle of computer animation technology. After achieving fire and hair, Pixar successfully created an animation ocean.

The production of two animated feature films at the same time almost became Pixar's tradition. After ending all the post-production work of "Search for Nemo", Pixar's most profitable cartoon "Car Story" in his previous life was put on the agenda.

Compared with Pixar Studio, Disney animation department can only be described as silent. They are too far from their former glory, and their technology and concepts are completely behind the development of the market. These are not something that an excellent creativity and script can change.

If Disney Animation wants to reshape its glory, it can only accumulate slowly. They are exploring to make some computer animation short films to accumulate experience.

Anyway, there are a lot of fairy tales to be reinterpreted in the future, and Ryan is not in a hurry.

Originally, Ryan had thought about whether to leave "Kung Fu Panda" to Disney animation department, but later he thought about it and gave up directly.

This cartoon is a typical DreamWorks animation style, neither suitable for Pixar nor Disney animation.

The singing and dancing version of "Kung Fu Panda" is trembling when you think about it.

The top animation studios in Hollywood each have their own distinct style. This type of verbal and funny type is undoubtedly the typical style of DreamWorks animation, which is completely different from the concepts of other animation studios.

Well… “Despicable Me” seems to give DreamWorks anime good.

It seems that I should find someone to get the script and character styles in advance. Anyway, Universal Pictures is now a Frenchman, and I have no friendship with the Frenchman.

In addition, the negotiations with the CIA also resulted in the results. In principle, the other party agreed to authorize it. After all, this is one of the classic masterpieces of CIA.

Antonio Mendez, who participated in the formulation and personally implemented the plan, said that he would compile a memoir as soon as possible with the cooperation of the team sent by Ryan.

Ryan also assured him that as long as he obtains the right to adapt the movie, the publication of the memoir is not a problem at all.

Near the evening, Ryan left the Disney Building and went to Jenkins Films not far away.

After being incorporated into Disney, Jenkins Pictures gradually completed the role transformation. Those large-scale series of films basically transferred to Disney Pictures, and themselves became companies that released low-investment movie types such as "American Pi", "Scream", "Scream", "Reaper" and other low-investment movies.

Now, another series is in intense post-production here.

I met the three men and women with complex relationships in the editing room on the second floor. After seeing the upcoming post-production, Ryan simply went to the entertainment room on the first floor and found a younger girl Taylor and she accompanied.

"Hey, Lily..."

From the middle of a pile of blocks, Ryan found the little girl over four years old and rubbed her head, "Long time no see."

"Hello, Godfather." The little girl was very polite, not as naughty as Taylor of the same period.

Hearing the name that was approved by the people around him, Ryan smiled helplessly, then glared at Taylor sitting behind the little girl, Miss Swift was lying on the table fiddling with a Rubik's Cube, and she didn't even look at it.

Ni is Lily's godmother, but Ryan never said she wanted to be her godfather. The little girl would shout like this, of course, it was the result of Taylor's education.

However, it doesn't matter if there is one more goddaughter, it's not a big deal in Hollywood.

"Why are you here?" Ryan picked up Lily, placed her on a chair, and sat opposite Taylor. "Don't you have to go to the record company today?"

"I'll take a break today." Taylorchi raised his head and stuffed the Rubik's Cube to the curious Lily. "Her nanny has asked for leave, Kate wants to work, and he can't find anyone to see her for the time being, so I was sent by Nicole."

"I just looked on it for a while." Taylor's eyes lit up, and his listless look seemed to disappear. "Kate's vampire is really cool."

"Dear, that's not suitable for your current age." Ryan grabbed her high nose and shook it back and forth. Taylor quickly reached out to open it, "I just watched a few clips and was kicked out."

What Taylor is talking about is "Legend of the Night". When Ryan thought of this series, he asked the screenwriter to come up with the script and then found Lang Wiseman, who was just a small production with an investment of more than 20 million US dollars.

Unexpectedly, when the producer confirmed that Kate Beckinsale was the heroine, Lang Wiseman still found Michael Sheen...

According to the news he received from Nicole, it seems that Kate Beckinsale has already started dating Lang Wiseman.

Taylor doesn't like children very much, but fortunately Lily is not the kind of crying type. The two of them can barely get together to play. Taylor spends most of his time teaching Lily to arrange building blocks and play with Rubik's Cubes, and he is also a relatively responsible sister.

"elder sister……"

Lily put down the cube in her hand and pulled Taylor's arm, "I want to go to the bathroom."

"Okay, okay." Taylor turned his head, rolled his eyes helplessly at Ryan, and led the little girl to the bathroom on the other side.

They had just left, and the door of the entertainment room was pushed open from outside, and Kate Beckinsale walked in with the director.

"Hi, Ryan." She waved to this side and asked, "Where is Lily and Taylor?"

"I'm going to the bathroom." Ryan signaled the chair opposite, "Should you wait a moment, you should be back soon."

After Kate Beckinsale sat down, Ryan asked again, "Kate, have you finished filming the Universal Monster Movie?"

"Not yet." She picked up the Rubik's Cube and turned it twice in her hand. "Director Somos is waiting for the weather in Europe to get colder and the shooting will start again at the end of September."

"Hi, Kate."

As Taylor's voice came, the girl handed Lily to Beckinsale's hands, "Dear Lily, now starts, your mother will take care of you."

"Thank you sister!" The little girl thanked her in a slight voice.

"You're welcome." Taylor learned from Ryan's appearance and rubbed the little girl's hair, took his bag, took out a purple crystal bow from it, and stuck it on Lily's brown hair. "This is more beautiful."

"It's almost time." Ryan looked at his watch and reminded, "Let's go, otherwise Nicole should be anxious." (To be continued...)
