Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 54 Why should I bring you along?

Gu Bei finally understood.

Why when he opened the treasure trove of entertainment, he found that the script of Twilight had not yet been released.

The script that MTV Studios commissioned the screenwriter to write has nothing to do with the original Twilight novel except for Bella and Edward.

This is different from domestic entertainment consumption, which is all related to women.

The North American film market is absolutely a male-dominated market!
Even the youth market was developed starting with teenage males.

If we look at it from this perspective,
Bella, a long-distance runner, can show off her thighs and figure.

A beautiful girl holding a shotgun is also fatally attractive to men.

There are also popular chase scenes, all of which are designed to cater to male audiences.

At this point in time, no one could have imagined that
A film series targeting teenage girls can generate a billion or even two billion dollars in profits!
Even Summit Entertainment, which is now sincerely competing for it, is essentially trying to pick up the seven things that Hollywood doesn't want.

Just then, Eunice came back.

"Are you talking about the script?"

Eunice smiled and interrupted the conversation, “Bruce, I actually have a good suggestion.

Your script synopsis is very well written, and Eric's Summit Entertainment has more powerful production capabilities. Why don't you two join forces?"

Eric's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He already felt that his hope was slim.

But Eunice's words changed the situation again.

Although the screenwriter was designated by Stephanie, Summit Entertainment's voice in the crew was weakened.

But copyright is the core. As long as the copyright is in their hands, they will eat the biggest piece of the cake.

"That depends on what Bruce thinks..."

Eric looked at Gu Bei, his tone seemed to be asking, but in fact the initiative was still in his hands.

Gu Bei looked at Stephanie.

The other person avoided his gaze, obviously feeling a little sorry for this behavior.

It’s still too weak!

Everyone wants to recruit me!

Gu Bei thought of the last incident with Riot Games. He had helped them so much, but they wanted to work for Riot Games themselves, so he just took some equity incentives to get away with it.

It's the same this time.

I originally thought that Stephanie called Summit Entertainment over to get both parties to raise the price.

But now it seems that Stephanie's idea is
They were frightened by the previous script of MTV Films and did not dare to hand over the copyright casually.
They also wanted to assign a screenwriter they trusted, themselves, to increase their control over the finished film.

After all, only when the film adaptation is more consistent with the original work can it better promote the sales of the original book, which is Stephanie’s most core interest!
but……

Since we want to cooperate, why should we bring you along?

A plan emerged in Gu Bei's mind.

But today, we can't talk about it.

He had to find a way to get out of this meeting.

"Jingle Bell!"

Gu Bei's cell phone rang.

He looked at the caller.

Eric

It was originally intended to be a backup plan to increase his Hollywood endorsement, and now it comes at the perfect time!
Gu Bei apologized to the others and answered the phone:
"Hey, Eric!"

Eric frowned.

He was putting pressure on Gu Bei, but the other party escaped with a phone call.

At this moment, Gu Bei on the opposite side suddenly called out an unexpected name.

"Hello, hello, Mr. Spielberg. Of course I've seen your movies. My favorite is the one about the alien ET. I really wish I could have a friend like ET!"

When the name Mr. Spielberg came up,
A familiar face popped up in the minds of the remaining four people present.

Combined with the movie title mentioned by Gu Bei later, the person on the other end of the phone was also officially confirmed.

Legendary director Steven Spielberg!

"Wait a mininute."

Gu Bei covered the microphone and said to the others, "This may be all we can do today. I have to leave a little earlier. Sorry!"

After saying that, Gu Bei left the four people looking at each other in bewilderment.

He went outside the resort and talked to Spielberg again.

"Bruce, I've seen your short film. It's very well made. Are you interested in joining my crew and going on an adventure with Dr. Jones?"

Today there is one more person who wants to recruit me!

Do I have the physique to be a chosen worker?

Although Spielberg is indeed Gu Bei's idol,
But there was no way he would give up such precious time just to chase stars.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Spielberg, I'm already working on my own feature film."

After a pause, Gu Bei smiled and said, "Besides, I'm afraid my visa doesn't support me going on a global adventure with Dr. Jones."

"That's such a shame!"

Spielberg's voice was gentle, without any negative emotion of being rejected.

Afterwards, the two chatted about some movie-related knowledge on the phone.

After about half an hour, he hung up the phone.

"call!"

Gu Bei breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowledge is like a virus; once you're infected, it's hard to imagine life without it.

Even though I have activated my director skills to the maximum, when communicating with Spielberg, I have to hold back at all times, for fear of talking too much and confusing Spielberg.

It’s really uncomfortable!

After discovering yesterday that Stephanie might have called Summit Entertainment, Gu Bei prepared for this call.

Originally, today was the weekend, and Spielberg would be at home with his family, so Antonio would wait until the weekend was over before visiting.

But thanks to Eric's connections, Antonio will deliver the tuner's short film to Spielberg's home during the meeting time today.

As long as Spielberg sees this short film, he will definitely be interested in him!
Originally, he wanted to show Stephanie that he had connections in Hollywood and enhance his own endorsement.

But now that I understand Stephanie's plan,
This phone seems... even more useful!

Only people inside Hollywood know what the name Spielberg represents!
……

night.

Eric came to Catherine's door with his cell phone in hand, looking a little strange.

After he received a call from Catherine, he was told to go to her room, but he didn't know what she wanted to talk about.

"Da da da!"

After a knock, the door opened.

Besides Catherine, there was another person inside whom he was a little reluctant to see.

That’s Gu Bei!
"Bruce, tell me, why did you call me over here?"

Eric knew that the culprit behind tonight's incident could only be Gu Bei.

“I’m actually quite interested in today’s proposal. It’s not that we can’t cooperate.

But why does Ms. Meyer have to be the middleman?

Wouldn't it be better if the two of us just worked together?"
