Chapter 883 Willing to admit defeat

Gilbert Jr. seemed genuinely happy for David Ellison: "There's an old Chinese saying that victory and defeat are common in the military, and it's the same in Hollywood.

Don’t take it to heart, life goes on.”

The subtext of this statement is that your failure is inevitable and you are not suitable for Hollywood, so go back and live the life of a rich second-generation!

David Ellison also seemed to have accepted his fate: "After I return, I may need to rest for a while, and Sky Studios should also be disbanded."

The two didn't chat for long before little Gilbert left.

On the way back, Ivanka asked Gilbert Jr.: "David Ellison has such a deep conflict with you, will he sell Sky Studios to you?"

"He had no other choice."

Gilbert said confidently: "Other companies will certainly lower the price when they see the current situation. If they want to cash out, selling to me is the best option."

"why?"

"Because I offer the fairest price."

To some extent, David Ellison's current appearance is closely related to Gilbert Jr.

But let's be honest, Hollywood is full of competition all the time. If you can't adapt, you will be eliminated, and David Ellison is well aware of this.

The most valuable brand in Sky Studios' hands today is Transformers.

But for Gilbert Jr., the Transformers project is no longer important to him because there are so many profitable projects.

Logically speaking, if "Battleship" failed, the worst that could happen is that they could just continue to work on "Transformers", which would be a safe bet.

But things are not that simple. Sky Studios has spread its business too wide in recent years, and the revenue from one "Transformers" is not enough to make up for the losses from other projects.

Even if "Transformers" could be filmed in more than 007 movies like "007", MGM, which owns "", almost went bankrupt, and Sky Studios would be no exception.

As for why David Ellison transferred Sky Studios to Gilbert Jr., the reason is simple: to save his last bit of face.

However, it is still too early to talk about this matter now. Maybe David Ellison will change his mind and continue to fight in Hollywood?

David Ellison's failure affected another person, Mel Gibson.

Since he offended Gilbert Jr., it has been extremely difficult for Mel Gibson to make a comeback. He finally managed to shoot a movie, but it was not a big success.

Once David Ellison quits Hollywood, it becomes a question whether Mel Gibson, who has lost his support, can continue to survive in Hollywood.

Gilbert Jr. did not take advantage of David Ellison's misfortune. After all, he had a relationship with Larry Ellison, and he still needed to unite with Larry Ellison to continue to expand Silicon Valley capital.

But Gilbert Jr. was not so polite to Mel Gibson.

After returning, he ordered: "Arrange the media to release the negative information about Mel Gibson. I think the Squid Club doesn't want someone who despises the Squid to continue to be at large in Hollywood."

Within a few days, various gossip tabloids began to report on some of Mel Gibson's early scandals and inappropriate remarks. For a time, Mel Gibson's scandal was all the rage and became very popular on the Internet.

Faced with the sudden scandal, Mel Gibson worked hard on public relations while asking David Ellison to save him.

But David Ellison was not in the mood to work, and after he recovered, he went to Europe for vacation.

After Michael Ovitz announced his resignation, Martin Bob also announced the dissolution of the agency they founded. Subsequently, the agency's client resources were taken away by other Hollywood agencies, and Martin Bob, along with Michael Bay, settled in Sheena Boone's agency.

The super agent that Sheena Boone once had to look up to has now become a partner under her.

This made Sheena Boone sigh that if she followed the right person and held on to his thighs, victory would be so easy.

Mel Gibson was unable to seek help and was besieged by the Hollywood Squid Club, so he had no choice but to return to Australia in disgrace and quit Hollywood.

But for him now, it’s good enough to be able to return to Australia safely.

If little Gilbert does something evil again, he will have to spend a few more years in jail.

Mel Gibson in his previous life was able to come back because of the help of Robert Downey Jr., and he is able to make a comeback in this timeline because of David Ellison.

But now, after this, there is no hope for Mel Gibson.

Just on the first weekend when Battleship flopped, the post-production of Gravity was finally completed and it entered the release scheduling stage.

The film is expected to be released on August 4th. The movie to be released in the same period is "Jason Bourne", but Zhu Yan is not played by Matt Damon, but by Jeremy Renner.

Perhaps Universal Pictures thought that Gilbert's hastily produced "Gravity" would not be of high quality, and that the two films had different audiences, so they did not switch the release dates.

But if Universal Pictures had seen the preview of Gravity, it wouldn't think so.

Because of the need to win awards, Disney cooperated with Gilbert Jr. to hold a number of previews, and mainly invited Oscar judges and senior movie fans.

The film's excellent performance conquered the vast majority of judges and audiences because the film was so outstanding.

The media also began to continue reporting on Gilbert Jr.'s space blockbuster. One reason was that the film was indeed excellent, and the other was that the red envelopes were indeed very generous.

"Relying on the latest digital technology, Gravity provides a dreamlike experience. This is a film that gives people a white-hot feeling. Both critics and audiences will be inspired by this movie." - Variety

“Gravity is not a traditional science fiction film. It is full of tension and surprises. Gilbert Jr. has created the most realistic and beautiful space movie.

There are no aliens, interstellar space battles, or dystopian plots, just one woman dealing with the problems she faces under the most unfavorable circumstances, but it makes for a very tight 90 minutes." - The Hollywood Reporter

"Words cannot describe the stunning visuals of this space opera, which can only be fully captured in a movie theater in 3D." - Los Angeles Times

Director James Cameron also said in an interview: "I think this is the best space-themed movie ever. I haven't seen this kind of movie for a long time.

Gilbert and Anne Hathaway team up to deliver a story about one woman's fight for her life in zero gravity that doesn't feel contrived."

Undoubtedly, the film received critical acclaim.

The visual effects shown in the several trailers edited by Gilbert Jr. are also very attractive to the audience.

Some media have previously said that Gilbert Jr. has lost his respect for movies and that "Gravity" will be a money-making film.

But judging from the trailer, the quality of the film is excellent.

In recent years, 3D movies have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, but there are only a few truly outstanding 3D movies.

The performance of Gravity fully proves its excellent performance on the screen, and the effect in the cinema should also be very good. (End of this chapter)
