"What do you think he would do, Crow?" Adrian asked after Turner left.

"It's more likely that we'll agree to our terms," ​​Crowd said after thinking about it. "Although he still has some countermeasures, that doesn't work for us. At best, it costs more money and time. . Ted also understands this, and besides, it is not good for everyone to make a profit, so he will probably agree to us in the end. Of course, your words also played a great role, and they were quite imposing and quite ... arrogant. "

"Ted has entered a military academy, and has a character of dissatisfaction in his bones. He is also full of a strong contradictory enterprising spirit. Otherwise, TBS will not develop to the point where it is today. Achievement resonates more with him. "Adrian shrugged." But in my opinion, your praise and disclosure of CNN, when you chose the more promising TBS instead of losing money, It makes him feel more respected and contented. I still remember when we praised CNN's 24-hour uninterrupted news as a great setting, he did not hide his pride and pride. "

"That is of course, this should be his most valuable idea," Claude laughed. "But I insist on my opinion. After all, there is no basis for facts, and a strong gesture will only cause resentment from people like him. . Speaking of which, I have to sigh, but you have already achieved this point in three years ... You are right, Ed, it is indeed what you say will be what it is, very amazing. "

"You are the same, Crow. Without you, the development of the media will not be so fast. We will not discuss the acquisition with Ted now," Adrian raised his hands. "Don't sigh anymore, this is just It's just the beginning. "

After a pause, he said again, "Well, if Ted agreed to our terms, how would you arrange him?"

"What do you think?" Crowder asked after groaning.

They looked at each other and said in unison: "Vice President."

For a moment, the two laughed inadvertently.

"To fully control TBS in our hands, Ted must not continue to be TBS." Claude thought so, but Adrian had other ideas in his mind.

"He's too old," Adrian said. "Although he refuses to lose, he still keeps going in, but some ideas are difficult to change after a long period of accumulation, and in the next few years, it is necessary to constantly refresh the ideas. Era "

Although the starting points of the two are not the same, the purpose is the same-to facilitate kicking Ted Turner out if necessary. This is also normal business behavior.

"Internet tide?" Claude asked as he watched Adrian.

"Internet tide." Adrian nodded his coffee.

Claude didn't speak anymore. He knew that Adrian had always been full of the Internet, and it was arguably a zealous confidence. Not only did he keep in touch with Stanford, but he also paid attention to several college students majoring in electrical engineering through Regut Interest-Adrian didn't hide this from him.

"By the way, Crowe, I have some suggestions to tell you about the current momentum of the film company," Adrian said at this time, "Although it's okay to talk to Lafferne, but I think there is you Support may play a greater role. "

Claude gestured please.

"When you talked about this some time ago, you didn't give a detailed explanation, but I know that the situation is not good, even if it is not bad," Adrian said, "so I have been thinking about solutions."

It really is n’t much better. If it was n’t for the acquisition of Paramount ’s board of directors through the acquisition of Paramount, because “Schindler ’s List” and some Jewish men went online and made a few transactions, plus a father It is difficult to say what kind of situation the media will face now.

"As I said to Ted before, I do n’t understand certain things, so I can only think from my perspective, and the rest depends on you," Adrian said, making a gesture. " What we have now is that the momentum is too high, so it just needs to be brought down, and my idea is to release a lot of low-cost independent movies in large numbers. "

After talking about it for a while, he took a sip of coffee before he continued to say, "You know, I started making almost independent films with a small cost, so the film companies have a good reputation in the independent film industry. Word-of-mouth, so we can use this word-of-mouth to distribute as few movies as possible at low cost. Of course, the few who can make money are the majority, and most of them are already good at maintaining capital, and more are still losses. Our upward momentum, at least in terms of data, has been contained. As for losses, these movies are relatively small in cost, so as long as they will operate-such as recovering costs through videotapes-the losses will not be too large and completely affordable. Range, and, you know, tax avoidance. "

"And there are two other benefits to this," admiring what Claude said, and Adrian immediately raised his hand to press in the air. "First of all, we can continue to maintain our reputation in the independent film industry. Big production will be the trend, but small production movies must not be left behind. Secondly, there will also be high-grossing movies in small productions. I have proven this myself, plus it can also enrich the film source library. There is no reason not to Do it. "

"It's all ideal, right?" Claude said after thinking about it.

"Of course, but you have to admit that this is indeed a viable method." Adrian shrugged. "Don't forget ..."

"Yes, I know, we have to supplement the rest." Claude looked at him with amusement and amusement. "You guy"

"Then that's it. If there is nothing else, then I will leave." Adrian stood up.

"It's only a few minutes. Who is going to date today?" Crowder sighed.

"Kate, she doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, and has coaxed it on the phone before." Adrian replied with a smile. "I'm thinking of traveling with her for a few days."

"You guy ..." Claude shook his head and seemed to think his behavior was bad. Unexpectedly, Adrian teased him with a lazy voice: "Don't tell me, Crow, that day you and that German models just chatted at the hotel for one night, or do you want to say that you and those models are just ordinary friends? "

"That's different, I'm just playing, and now you ..." Claude closed his mouth with a gesture, Adrian reached out and half-jokingly half-warned and nodded him, then went out with a smile .

It's still the same, nothing changed. Claude laughed a bit, and adjusted his clothes before going out. No, there are still changes, and many changes. After seeing Adrian's car outside the club, Crowder, who got in his car, thought so.

Recalling the situation in the past three years, even the steadfast-willed, he could not help feeling a dream.

"I want to take control of Hollywood" is what Adrian said to him at the time, when he just thought he was joking, and now they have their own business and have taken the most solid step towards this goal.

Crowder remembers Adrian's sneer when he asked him "whether he wants to go down with his father's plan or own his own business", and pointed at the lights outside the floor glass and said "Look at those people" Disdain of the times, or the glory of describing the future of the Internet.

Frankly, for a while he was really new to this dead party. He suddenly woke up and wanted to persuade him to fully understand. He had no ambitions to set ambitious goals for himself, but he never encountered filmmaking. It ’s incredible that the guys have repeatedly produced low-cost, high-grossing movies.

"I never knew that this child would have such a talent, maybe it was really a gift from God?" Old Ron Reese said to Claude half-surprisingly and curiously.

However, this strangeness did not last long. Although Adrian has changed a little in both his behavior and habits, he is still the guy Claude is familiar with, especially when asked why he can make movies. The answer was very sloppy: "Because I am a genius."

If Claude had put him on the ground while he was still at Stanford, of course, it was more likely that he was overturned, and Adrian would fight very well.

However, the most important reason is not this. The most important reason is that this guy's hobby of hunting has basically not changed, but he went back to the UK with a beautiful chick.

You should know that Adrian was famous for picking girls when he was at the college fraternity. Every time the fraternity party brought or took away different girls, although for the wealthy children such as Claude, it was so chaotic and even Some rotten college life is normal, but there are still rumors that "Stanford's slightly more beautiful girls have **** with Adrian" and it has spread widely.

This is indeed a rumor. As a dead party, Claude knows exactly what he is doing. Although Adrian likes picking girls very much, he hasn't reached that point yet. However, the reason why the rumors can be so widely spread is also based on a certain AA league, Washington University visiting Stamford, the two teams played fiercely outside, he and the cheerleader also fought fiercely in the locker room, the results needed When the cheerleading team played for a long time without the captain, how bad the midfield performance was can be imagined. Fortunately, few people know the specific situation, neither Adrian nor the cheerleader named Gia was not punished for this.

Of course, Claude didn't think so at first, because before Adrian never took the girl home, he just thought he wanted to settle down, but this idea appeared in Monica in Adrian After being overthrown by his side, Claude found that his dead party had changed and remained unchanged.

Adrian not only brought Kate home, but also maintained a relationship with Monica, while also occasionally playing one-night stand outside-although he would not speak out, but only Claude asked, he would not hide . In this case, Adrian still maintains ... well ... the principled bastard.

The title of "principled bastard" was not Claude's name for Adrian, but the comment of the cheerleader who had beautiful blond hair and a nice figure. If it wasn't for Adrian's commissioning of the AA League for the AA League, Gia might not be punished, but ...

"Since this happened because of me, of course I have to take responsibility." Adrian was not as mature and confident as he is now, and a lazy look made him quite unruly. For young girls, It was very attractive, so Gia started to undress again after expressing her gratitude.

Interestingly, this comment has been unanimously approved by girls who have had a relationship with Adrian. From this, it can be seen that Adrian's fate is quite good.

"If they do leave, I won't stop them," he said now.

Hell, why do I recall this? Crowder, who was driving, suddenly burst out laughing. Probably because the most important acquisition is finally settled, after all, in their blueprint, this is an essential part. It will be considered a miracle for anyone who knows to develop a completely new media company to this point within three years.

"I'm proud and proud of you, son, for both of you." Father said this very seriously.

If it wasn't for Adrian inspiring him to start a business together, maybe he is still working in his father's company. Claude sighed in his heart. Since 90 years, Adrian has been giving him surprises. He also wants to know what kind of surprises will follow. Although his confidence in the Internet is not as strong as Adrian's, he is being admired by Adrian. After studying the impact early and carefully, the prospects for the network are still very promising.

"I'm waiting for the Internet tide to come, hoping that it will not disappoint." Crowder muttered this, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he was inexplicably confident at this moment: we will continue Miracle

But in the next second, Claude, who looked at the time, turned his attention to other aspects. The German model named Heidi Klum is probably going back to New York tomorrow, and can still come out and play today. As Adrian's death party, how could he not be interested in women, but he does not have a lot of free time like Adrian, so most of the time just play with models, these women are the easiest to get started.

Compared to Claude, Adrian, although driving on the road, was thinking about the company. Regarding the method of distributing a large number of small-cost or independent films, he found it for a long time in his memory. This is how Lionsgate film relied on the stunt of B-level movies to develop and grow in Hollywood. If it wasn't for the time, Miramax had a high reputation in the independent film industry, and with Weinstein's deep experience in Hollywood, maybe Lions Gate could fight against them in this Chamber.

Now switching to Bosworth, this effect is bound to be better. With Adrian's few low-cost independent movies, Bosworth has divided Miramax's influence in the independent film circle by at least half. If La Verne operates well, this influence cannot be further expanded. At the same time, it can also fill the source library, and the loss can be reduced to a minimum through the release of videotapes, and it can also curb its upward momentum on the surface. Why not kill a few birds with one stone?

As for the negative impact of this move, although Lions Gate has occupied a place in the second-tier film companies, it has almost become synonymous with B-level movies, and there are hardly any particularly large productions. Don't forget what Adrian does.

"If you think about it earlier, the film company should grow stronger now?" Adrian shook his head, thinking of it, took out his cell phone and dialed up.

This time the negotiations ended and an important issue was resolved, but it will take time for the final result. As for other things, with the advent of March, more and more articles about Oscar's foresight. Although many people know that Schindler's List has advantages that other movies can't match, but In order to show fairness, the pros and cons of other films are still being analyzed.

However, under "Schindler's List", the most likely to get the best movie is "Piano Lesson ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Bosworth, who produced and distributed these two films, has received a lot of attention. Someone with good things lamented in the article: When other movie companies were distressed about how to canvass their own films, Bosworth Pictures was distressed about which movie they were canvassing. Last year they were like this. People are surprised.

This intangible pushed Bosworth Films to a higher level, but Adrian was not worried. Anyway, he had reached this point, so why should he cover it up. Besides, the solution has been settled, but it takes time to implement it-there is no way to achieve immediate results.

Ravenn has always done the PR for Schindler's List as Adrian has ordered, as well as Tom Hanks' best actor. Although Hanks has an advantage but does not have an absolute advantage in this Oscar, it is needless to say that Liam Nissen, who is also nominated at the same time, is the first time to be nominated by the Irish. Movie can basically be ignored; and Anthony Hopkins has already won the film once, unless it has been too long or the performance is impeccable, it is difficult to take it again; as for Lawrence Fishburn, The color of the skin has determined that it is impossible now; so the biggest opponent is Daniel Day Louis.

This guy has the qualifications and acting skills, plus "in the name of his father" has also received a lot of praise, posing a considerable threat to Hanks.
