Chatty Hollywood

Of course, more players of "Detective Sherlock Holmes" may not be able to find so many friends to play with, so their experience of the multiplayer mode of this game is purely through the Internet.

——In addition, by 2000, the Internet in the United States had become quite popular.

All in all, this game quickly gained widespread popularity upon its release. In just a few days, it reached platinum level of one million sales.

Although compared to the movie version of "Sherlock Holmes", these sales may be the box office level of about one day at its peak, but unlike box office revenue, Spectre Studio takes the lion's share of game revenue.

Therefore, from the perspective of Spectre Studio, the revenue brought by the game of the same name is not a lot.

In particular, the sales momentum of this game has no tendency to decrease. The head of the game department, Steyn, even optimistically predicted that this game might reach 10 million sales.

——This is basically equivalent to the total North American ticket sales of a blockbuster commercial blockbuster, maybe even more.

——Of course, not the kind shot by Charlotte herself.

As a movie shot by Charlotte herself, the results of the movie version of "Sherlock Holmes" are naturally even more exaggerated——

At present, although its screening in North America has gradually entered the late stage, it still firmly holds the top spot on the weekly box office list.

Whether it's Tom Cruise's action blockbuster "Mission: Impossible 2" or Ridley Scott's epic "Gladiator", they can't knock Sherlock Holmes off his throne.

——This movie dominated the North American box office chart for six weeks.

——And this is during the summer season when box office competition is fiercest.

This made all the distribution companies that released the movie at the same time deeply disappointed. Only Warner, as the distributor of "Sherlock Holmes", was overjoyed.

Now, the film's North American box office has exceeded US$400 million and is hitting the US$500 million mark.

"Although it may not reach the level of "Titanic" in previous years, the box office performance of "Sherlock Holmes" can be considered phenomenal!"

In the office of Disney's president, Disney's "tyrant" Michael Eisner looked at the box office report of "Sherlock Holmes" in his hand and sighed to his right-hand man Robert Iger,

"In particular, Charlotte Booth is much better at controlling shooting costs than James Cameron, who burns money - the total box office performance of "Sherlock Holmes" may not be as good as "Titanic" "However, after excluding the costs, its producers and distributors may gain more income than "Big Ship"."

Speaking of this, Michael Eisner frowned,

"Because of the cooperation with Spectre Studio or Charlotte Booth, Warner's profits will definitely be very high this year. What's more, at the end of the year, they will also have a part of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" that they also cooperate with. "Released."

"Although Charlotte Booth was not the director of this movie, the first "Philosopher's Stone" he directed laid a good foundation for this series. Coupled with the increasing popularity of the original work around the world—— "

"Bob, we need a way!"

Eisner called Robert Egger by his nickname, but his tone was anything but intimate.

"As the new chairman of Disney Studios, you need to think of a solution!!"

"..."

Robert Egger remained silent.

——As a senior executive who entered Disney headquarters from the ABC television network acquired by Disney, Robert Iger cannot be regarded as an absolute direct descendant of Disney.

But because Robert Iger played the most important role in the process of Disney's integration with ABC, he has indeed become Disney's "own man".

Both President Michael Eisner and other members of Disney's board of directors have great trust in him.

This allowed him to successfully complete the triple jump,

Becomes Chairman of the Trust of Disney Studios this year.

——Although at the group level, he is still under the jurisdiction of President Michael Eisner, but at this level, he is not without the ability to resist.

Therefore, Robert Egger was somewhat dissatisfied with the bossy attitude of "tyrant" Eisner.

But on the one hand, Robert Egger is a very good person in dealing with people.

——No matter he faces enemies or friends, he can deal with it with a smile that makes people feel like spring breeze.

——Even if he will stab the other person to death with a knife the next moment.

On the other hand, as someone who was promoted by Michael Eisner, Robert Iger did appreciate him.

——At least, he can tolerate such an offense or two.

In particular, Robert Egger understood that what Eisner said was indeed correct——

As the chairman of Disney Pictures, he is indeed in charge of the film department within the Disney Group - it is his duty to deal with related issues.

As for Charlotte Booth, as the hottest commercial film director and producer in Hollywood in recent years, how to deal with him is exactly Robert Iger's job.

"There is nothing we can do this year, we should think about the future!"

After a long silence, Robert Iger responded to Michael Eisner in a calm tone,

"Michael, you should know that just like Steven Spielberg in the late 1980s, cooperation is the most beneficial option for such a great director at his peak."

"cooperate!?"

Michael Eisner shook his head;

"Charlotte Booth is currently working very happily with Warner Bros., will he work with us again?"

"why not?"

Robert Egger asked rhetorically,

"Although it would be good to have a stable partner, there is nothing wrong with having one more partner, which is equivalent to an extra insurance policy - for Charlotte Booth, this is also beneficial to him and Warner Bros. Strive for more benefits.”

"Moreover, judging from the previous situation, Charlotte Booth did not intend to go all the way with Warner Bros. For the movie "The Mummy", didn't he choose to cooperate with Universal!"

Having said this, Robert Egger expressed his conclusion,

"So, instead of thinking about how to confront Charlotte Booth, we should think about how to bring him to our side!"

"All right!"

Michael Eisner nodded.

He admitted that there was some truth in what Robert Egger said;

"But, Bob, what is the specific method? You must know that Charlotte Booth's cooperation with Warner Bros. is still very close, especially regarding the long-term cooperation agreement on the "Harry Potter" series..."

"That series could have belonged to Disney!"

Hearing this, Robert Egger cursed in his heart. (https:)
