Andre’s fingertips slowly whimpered at the edge of the coffee cup. The slightly hot temperature was a bit sharp, but it could keep the fingertips sensitive, gently stimulating the brain, and keeping his thoughts active.

His overall view is better and more ambitious than that of Renly. From the confrontation between Renly and Harvey, from the confrontation between Renly and Diesel, he can see the overall situation of the entire film industry:

Why is an actor in Lanli district able to dispatch all the major film companies? Just because of the movie box office? Just because of egot? Just because of talent?

These are important factors that cannot be ignored, but they are not the key reasons.

In the final analysis, Lanly made full use of the checks and balances and competition between the major film companies, and keenly captured the conflicts of interest during the Oscars season, creating more uncertainties in the original competitive landscape of the major forces. , And then formed a situation of court resistance, and finally through the restriction of the film company, completed the suppression of Harvey and Diesel, and even directly kicked Diesel out of the game.

But from this, we can see the lack of the overall layout of Lanli: going around and around, but only to get Diesel out, this is too petty!

Of course, Lan Li was just an actor, and all his energy and talents fell on acting. If he is forced to become the CEO of Sisyphus Pictures, Lan Li will try to compete in the entire film market. To gain more benefits, that is the real violent thing.

Therefore, let Lan Li use his talents and abilities, and leave the struggle for a higher level to professionals.

In a short period of time, Andre’s mind has been turned upside down, from Diesel and Harvey, all the way to Sony Classics and Sundance Film Festival, and finally advanced to the next stage, and Lan Li is Always sit quietly by the side, and enjoy the leisurely moments of the morning.

"Are we really going to get involved in publishing?" Andre finally spoke, but his thoughts and topics have jumped out of the sky, and Lan Li can't keep up with the speed. Where is this and where? Didn’t they just discuss Harvey and Bob? And how to bring Universal Pictures into the game? Why did it suddenly become an issue?

Lan Li did not respond in a hurry.

Andre continued, "Sony Classics has nodded and agreed to sign a two-year cooperation agreement to jointly produce works with an investment of less than 100 million US dollars. The contract is now with Matthew. Not surprisingly, after Sundance ended. You can formally sign a contract."

The reason why it is a "under 100 million U.S. dollar" work is because Sony Classic is an independent label. Their main distribution channels are for the award season and art theaters. They do not have the ability to distribute large-scale commercial films. That is Sony Columbia. The work of the film industry, that is, the cooperation between Sisyphus Pictures and Sony Classics is still centered on small-cost independent films.

Of course, Sisyphus Pictures has just started. Although it is now fully funded, it is impossible to start shooting big investment projects rashly. Sony Classic’s cooperation is currently the best choice to open up the situation.

Andre did not elaborate on the specific details, but it is worth mentioning that Sony Classic has issued very gratifying cooperation conditions. Compared with the cooperation between Legendary Pictures and Universal Pictures in the first half of the year, Sony Classic is even better, giving Sisyphus Pictures more advantages in terms of dividend ratio and power distribution.

the reason?

Renly represents the undefeated myth in the industry, and Andre represents the involvement of the European aristocracy. All of this makes Sisyphus Pictures’ position in the industry unique and irreplaceable. The Sony classic once again shows a rare one. The courage to see, before the 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros. and Paramount and other major competitors took the shot, the cooperation was finalized as quickly as possible.

Sony's classic sincerity has already paid off initially:

The online viewing craze caused by the Lanly Forum on YouTube, and the praise craze of "Blasting Drummer" at Sundance, has further strengthened their sincerity in cooperation.

What is certain now is that "Nightcrawler" will be the second work of the cooperation between the two parties.

"As for Sundance, I attended a private party yesterday. Robert hopes that we can establish a fund to support the artistic creation of more independent films; and he is willing to help us establish distribution channels. In the future, there will be a return between us and Sundance. There can be more interactive links." Andre briefly introduced again.

In just a few weeks, Renly's layout has made breakthrough progress, and Sisyphus Pictures has also initially opened up the situation.

But Andre’s considerations are slightly different. “Our cooperation with Sundance can start slowly, without involving interests, but to build a reputation, just like Sundance, all future independent art creators. We hope that when we are shooting our own work, Sisyphus is the first thing that comes to mind. This is the purpose."

"However, I don’t think we need to establish our own distribution channels. The works that we are optimistic about can be completely distributed by Sony Classics; and for those slightly inferior works, we can find distribution companies through the Sundance platform. In addition, we You can also sign an additional cooperation agreement with Sony Classics, setting a number every year, and asking them not to care about the gains or losses, no matter what, they must complete the screening in the art theater."

"This is enough. Is it really necessary to establish our own distribution channel through Robert Redford?" Andre lowered his voice, and expressed his worries and concerns in a calm and calm tone. In the public environment of the hall, other customers coming and going around did not notice that important things to change the structure of the industry were being discussed here.

Lan Li was not surprised by this argument, but instead asked, "It's like Steven Spielberg's DreamWorks?"

DreamWorks, the dream of all independent film companies, does not have the interference of Wall Street capital, and completes artistic creation entirely with enthusiasm. This has allowed them to produce many amazingly successful works; but at the same time they have also made many amazing shots. Unexpected failure works.

Because of the lack of distribution channels, successful works must divide more benefits, failed works must bear more risks, and at the same time lack of sufficient cash capital chain support, in the end DreamWorks reluctantly stepped into desperation step by step, proclaiming the era of the supremacy of interests The end of a dream.

Andre still did not waver his thoughts, "We are different from them. They have shot a large number of commercial films, with a higher dividend ratio and a higher rate of return; and we currently only focus on independent works through our own distribution channels. To build a system, we need to bear all the risks ourselves. Leaving aside the cost of establishing channels, it also means that there is less revenue for success and higher costs for failure. Let alone ten years, we may even have five years. Can't hold on."

"Unless we can succeed in every work." Andre looked at Lan Li with a full smile, and put all the pressure on Lan Li's shoulders.

The history that Lanly knows will end in 2017. In other words, the part he can "unpredict the prophet" is only three years in the future. After that, he can only rely on his intuition to complete the judgment, and cannot guarantee the percentage of the work. Hundreds of successes.

Andre’s concern is correct; but Renly has other ideas.

"Distribution channels are not only cinema channels, but also streaming media channels. What do you think?" Lan Li fluttered a heavy topic lightly.

Andre did not speak, but cast a puzzled look.

Lan Li went on to say, "I mean, we have established a new distribution channel. Some works are suitable for theater chains, such as gravity; but some works are suitable for online viewing, such as detachment. We can according to the nature of the work, Arrange different forms of distribution by yourself. Chaode can be the first to be shown online in art theaters. After accumulating enough word-of-mouth, skip the video rental market, play directly online, and then achieve profit through streaming media."

This brings us back to the Netflix model. The quality of works is not the most important thing, but the entire huge work library.

"That's why you pulled Robert and the Cohen brothers into the game?" Andre doesn't have the support of Renly's future knowledge~www.novelhall.com~ He needs a little time to digest the current situation, but he still keenly learns from Renly. A clue was detected in his actions.

Lan Li nodded and agreed, "Now all the works on the market can't get rid of the tights of summer superheroes and the tights of the Oscars for the awards season. The content and form of creation are getting narrower and narrower. The big screens of theaters The types of movies allowed are becoming narrower and narrower. Sundance’s independent directors need a display platform, and our streaming channels need content.”

This is why more and more big-name directors and big-name actors are returning to the small screen.

Simply judging from the development curve of the times, the big screen is subject to the influence of the box office market, and the creative content is becoming more and more monotonous and limited. Superhero movies and series of movies have gradually completed their reign. David Fincher and the Coen brothers Wait for the director's living space is getting smaller and smaller.

However, small screens and online streaming media have not had such an impact. Because of the wide audience and freedom, this also allows them to have more creative space. In the next few years, the art creation form of television and online media is increasing. Growing prosperity, the blowout growth in the number of outstanding TV series and the apparent decline in the quality of the Oscar's best film, formed a sharp contrast.

"Robert and I both hope to leave a piece of pure land for artistic creation. Since large screens are not feasible, online streaming has become the best choice. This is also an important feature of the Internet age, right? When we don’t need to worry about the box office. The market responds, but when profits are made through streaming media subscriptions or advertising, the creative space is completely opened."

Lan Li threw out the killer feature of the entire layout.
