How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 683 Another wave of smooth sailing: Johnny Depp got married.
"Following [Spider-Man 1.2.3] and [The Amazing Spider-Man 1.2], it's naturally not possible to do this without changing the medicine. We have to find another way." Zhang Nan explained to Clive Sander road.

Clive Sander was hesitant and confused: "In another way?"

There was no way not to hesitate.

[Spider-Man] This IP has earned Sony Columbia Pictures more than ten years and billions of dollars in box office, and it is already considered the core of Sony Columbia Pictures.

"Marvel." Zhang Nan reminded Clive Sander.

As soon as Clive Sander heard Zhang Nan's reminder, his eyes suddenly brightened up.

Without it.

The current plans of Marvel Studios for the cinematic universe are really great.

"Avengers 1" has brought in more than one billion US dollars worldwide, and brought the "Captain America" ​​and "Thor" series, which were originally at the global box office of to million US dollars, to the global box office of to billion US dollars. The location is almost on the same level as [Spider-Man].

"Would Marvel Studios be willing to cooperate? We have been in contact with Marvel Studios before, but..." Clive Sander asked after getting excited.

But Marvel Studios ultimately refused.

But this is normal.

Important partner?

“Clive, don’t worry, I’m professional in arranging film and television projects.

Because Zhang Nan is not so much a partner in Marvel Cinematic Universe projects, but more like an insurance company collecting high insurance premiums.

Zhang Nan glanced sideways at Clive Sander.

I really want to say this. How did you say this? Warner Pictures is like shit, but Sony and Columbia Pictures are not?
But now that the environment was not suitable, Zhang Nan held back and continued: "But if you let me talk, the situation will be different. I am an important partner of Marvel Studios."

If you don’t believe me, ask Tom Cruise. I first helped him negotiate for control of the Mission: Impossible series from Paramount Pictures, and then negotiated a co-production with Mainland China Film. There is also the [Transformers] series that Paramount Pictures and China Film Co., Ltd. collaborated on, and I played a big role in it. "

After all, no one is willing to give part of their own egg-laying hens to others.

And this is also a matter of course.

Because of this kind of cooperation, Sony Columbia Pictures has not never been in contact with Marvel Pictures.

"Sony Columbia Pictures, as a Hollywood giant with such a large scale, will naturally not agree to cooperate with Marvel Pictures. After all, Warner Pictures has learned from the past," Zhang Nan replied.

When Clive Sander heard this word, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Zhang Nan.

After all, it was a series that captured the huge fan following that Marvel Studios had accumulated in the past ten years, starting in 2008 and ending with Avengers 2019 in 4.

"It's really a rat's excrement that ruined the pot of porridge." Clive Sander couldn't help but cursed.

Because the operation of Warner Pictures is indeed speechless.

Clive Sander could not argue.

Zhang Nan did not notice Clive Sander's small movements, but continued to explain his ideas with passion.

See which small film and television company develops well, that is to go forward to cooperate first, and then acquire it.

The effect is small, the benefits are many, but the contribution is limited.

Zhang Nan has been coveting the cooperation between Sony Columbia's [Spider-Man] IP and Marvel Studios' movie universe plan for a long time.

Without his involvement, Sony Columbia and Marvel Studios would have reached a cooperation on the [Spider-Man] IP.

But the timing now is very clever.

First of all, Marvel Studios' intention to find someone else to replace Robert Downey Jr.'s "Iron Man" in the core position and influence of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has just received a strong blow. Secondly, Sony Columbia Pictures has just reluctantly ended the "Amazing Spider-Man" series.

It’s a time when both sides feel empty, lonely, and cold.

So after listening to Zhang Nan's words, Clive Sander pondered for a long time before saying: "Zhang, if we cooperate, in terms of copyright and income..."

"It's too early to talk about this now. If the cooperation is successful, we will discuss it in detail." Zhang Nan said confusedly.

Without it.

He is still not sure about the bottom line of Sony Columbia Pictures’ cooperation on the [Spider-Man] IP.

After all, in the original time and space, Holland’s version of [Spider-Man], the division between Sony Columbia Pictures and Marvel Pictures was:
Sony Columbia invests all of the project and gets 95% of the box office revenue; Marvel Studios uses the background of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to get 100% of the peripheral revenue and 5% of the box office revenue.

Basically.

In the original space-time collaboration between Sony Columbia Pictures and Marvel Studios on the Spider-Man series, Sony Columbia took a greater advantage and resorted to backdoor listings to attract fans.

But it was also a good time for Sony Columbia in the original time and space.

It directly comes after Marvel Studios failed to replace Robert Downey Jr.’s position as Iron Man in five waves with [Thor], [Captain America], [Guardians of the Galaxy], [Ant-Man] and [Doctor Strange]. mouth.

but now……

Naturally, Zhang Nan will not change. The bottom line of Marvel Pictures' cooperation in the Dutch version of [Spider-Man] will not let Sony Columbia Pictures take such a large share.

But now he doesn’t know the bottom line of Sony Columbia Pictures, so he has to take his time to test it out.

It just so happens that the time is not urgent, at least there is still a year or two.

……

Still in North America, but within the crew of [Pirates of the Caribbean 6].

Zhang Nan has put on the little blacksmith's clothes again, with Johnny Depp standing next to him.

"Zhang, when I had you, I didn't feel any pressure, but when I didn't have you in the last one, I really felt how much pressure there is in a top-notch series that has exceeded one billion U.S. dollars in global box office." Johnny Depp said with a sigh.

Zhang Nan looked at Johnny Depp a little unbearably when he heard this.

After all, he was in "Pirates of the Caribbean 5" and he was able to cheat Johnny Depp.

But Zhang Nan couldn't say this clearly, so she could only change the subject: "Frustration in the workplace, success in love, there are always gains and losses in life, but Depp, you got married last month, why didn't you send me an invitation then?" ?”

"At that time, I heard that it was Christmas in our country, so I..." Johnny Depp explained apologetically.

Zhang Nan nodded in approval when he heard this.

Because if you really ask him to attend a wedding, he really may not go.

After all, it is a cliched Western-style wedding on one side. At most, the hero and heroine will have a discussion about domestic violence in the future.

But on the other side.

But Girls' Generation's Korean dance performance without safety pants, various hot dance moves, and thighs spread so wide that he just wanted to take advantage of it.

only……

Frustrated in the workplace, proud in love?
Zhang Nan thought of the many court battles between Depp and his current wife in the future.

It seems that this love situation did not last long.
