Chicago 1990

Chapter 737: © Ron Meyer

The latest website: There are a lot of investors for the sequel of My Life. In addition to A+ Pictures, Universal, Amperin Entertainment, and Geffen Pictures have also participated, but in terms of production, it is still the first China-China cooperation and tacit cooperation with A+ Pictures. Amperin Entertainment dominates.

Simberg, who had personally intervened in the casting at the time, resigned, and David Geffen, who was busy with DreamWorks, was not in the mood to care about this little thing. He didn't even send anyone, but delegated the decision to Catherine.

"As one of the five founders of CAA, Ron Meyer had a very poor relationship with Ovitz. In the last few years of Ovitz's control of CAA, he was squeezed out of the center of power because of his failure in the struggle, but now... …Winner Ovitz gave up the trophy CAA and went to Disney, but he didn’t know how to get the trust of the young Bronfman to join Universal Pictures. The two “old brothers” who have cooperated and competed for 20 years are now in a new one. Met on the battlefield..."

On the road, Yeremov kept adding Song Ya's background as the new president of Universal Pictures.

"The two founders left CAA successively. Is it good for you William Morris?" Song Ya asked Hayden.

"Of course, now there are several young agents in CAA who are similar in influence to Paikinsley. They will bite each other madly for power."

Hayden was very pleased. He poached Ovitz and Ron Meyer one after another. I don't know if it counts as another way for the seven major issuing companies to take CAA. Anyway, William Morris seems to have a real opportunity this time.

"APLUS, Yeremov, Hayden, Linda."

The group ran into Catherine and his wife outside the meeting room, "Universal’s decision is very hasty, and our production party has to breathe in advance..." Catherine’s style is still consistent and nonsense. It’s not necessarily a good thing for us, because the movie was originally scheduled to be released on Valentine’s Day next year, and now our publicity work has not started at all. The movie and the actors have not been warmed up, which is not good. And even if the world needs to dance me The life sequel is an emergency, and it is not certain that it will be assigned a good schedule... Also, the sequel is a project led by Simberg, and it is hard to say whether the new president Ron Meyer is happy to see the project succeed."

"I see, your opinion is very important to me."

Before the people from Universal arrived, two groups of people walked into the meeting room and waited first, "Did Mr. Simberg go so decisively?"

"I heard that Mr. Bronfman was furious after watching the final decision version of the Future Water World. He threatened Simberg to send him to the dock if he didn’t get out of his own accord. The 170 million project is bound to It is reflected in the overall purchase price of Seagram taking over Universal from Panasonic, and he doesn’t know how much Simberg used the management chaos before Panasonic’s departure to get himself a pension."

Catherine laughed and said, "Of course it turned out not bad. Like Gübel of Columbia Pictures, Simberg left decently in the name of starting his own production company. The young Bronfman also invested a sum of money for his new company. ."

"What about Ron Meyer? Will he be honest?" Song Ya asked again.

"He is a loser in the CAA internal struggle for power. After he is lucky enough to get the power of Universal Pictures, he will definitely work hard to prove himself again. Your friend Doug Morris is similar. He didn’t stay long in the position of President of Warner Music. After resigning, and now being trusted by the little Bronfman to become the president of Universal Music, he should not mess around again. The little Bronfman has a good eye for picking people, and he has the bearing of a noble son..."

Catherine's words seemed to mean something.

"It looks like this."

Song Ya nodded. The so-called Doug Morris messing around was that he and Daniel joined other record companies to force major stores to maintain record prices, and finally attracted the Federal Trade Commission's antitrust investigation, right?

Doug Morris is more clever than Daniel. He resigned from Warner and ran away from Warner when the situation was wrong. Of course, his connections and accumulation are deeper than Daniel, and there are more reasons for turning over the capital.

Unlike Daniel, who has gone through the fiasco of EMI Beimi, if he is swept out by Sony Columbia Records, it is completely impossible to regain the position of one of the six presidents.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Ron Meyer is about fifty years old, of course also Jewish. Just a few days after taking office, I can see that he is very busy, "Stop talking nonsense, we want to file the sequel of Dance My Life to the end of August, what do you think? "

Because he is a senior agent, he always has a kind smile on his face, and he seems to get along better than other Hollywood executives.

His assistant also distributed the documents to Song Ya and others.

"At the end of August? I thought it would be earlier." Catherine was not satisfied. At the end of August, it was already at the end of the summer school. Most middle schools had started classes. "Can't it be earlier? Dance the target audience for the sequel of my life. It’s a middle school student."

Ron Meyer shook his head, "No way, only this time at the earliest, APLUS, your soundtrack?"

"I'm still working on it."

Because before the film was set for Valentine’s Day next year, the soundtrack contract between him and Universal agreed that it would be completed before October. The schedule was originally a matter for the distribution company, but now if you want to mention the file, the Universal family doesn’t count it. He accidentally got it. Has a great say.

"Can it be done before mid-August? It can't be later than that time." Ron Meyer asked.

"Schedule, Mr. Meyer will be in middle school at the end of August."

Before Song Ya came, he communicated with Catherine in a consistent way, "If you are willing to advance the schedule, I can work overtime..."

"There is no way to proceed." Ron Meyer refused.

"Do you have another movie scheduled for that schedule?" Catherine asked.

"Yes, baby pig, animal comedy, 30 million production cost, I have watched the film, the children must like it, and it is a family carnival type."

Ron Meyer replied: "We have put its schedule a little bit forward. This film is adapted from the Shepherd Pig of British children's writer Dick King Smith. The audience is familiar with it. The pre-announcement is already in progress. You should know something. Catherine, we couldn't fit more at that time."

Everyone agreed not to talk about the future water world project.

"That's it, Ron, if the sequel to my life is scheduled for the summer vacation, we are willing to risk the lack of pre-publicity."

Catherine said: "Otherwise, it would be better to stay on the Valentine's Day schedule next year. After all, young people had time and motivation to enter the theater at that time."

"Well, I understand. Anyway, you think about it. Time is waiting for no one."

Ron Meyer hurriedly stood up, did not conceal his troubles, and smiled embarrassedly: "Sorry, I have too many things now, you know, it's a mess here."

"It's okay."

Catherine shook his hand, "I can understand you Ron too."

"By the way, there is a party at my house tomorrow night. Will you come? And APLUS? Yeremov?"

He shook hands with Song Ya enthusiastically~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Oh, my lucky Hayden. "He gave Hayden a hug, "Did you know?" The CAA people are very jealous of you. "

"I don't rely entirely on good luck." Hayden heard the teasing in his words and said sternly.

"Haha, just kidding, see you tomorrow night anyway, I hope I can hear good news then."

Ron Meyer politely sent everyone out of the meeting room.

"This guy, a few months ago was still calling me to beg for his artist's audition opportunities in the cat and mouse game project."

After getting in the car, Hayden was still angry at Ron Meyer's joke just now, and Yeremov, who he didn't deal with very much, also helped talk this time.

"Yes, what's the air?" Hayden agreed.

People's status is very different now, Song Ya is not in the mood to participate in the Tucao meeting under his hand, "It's still early, I thought it would be a difficult negotiation. Mike, go to Xue Linfen, I want to accompany Robb. "
