Hollywood New Century

Xinghai Pictures, Sonia Roman, who came to Los Angeles from New York, was excited, and the first album of the same name of Star Records singer Taylor Swift sold more than 2 million copies.

"Simon, your vision is very accurate, the future of our country music diva is bright," Sonia Roman is indeed more suitable for the record industry.

"What about the Adele in the UK, has Valentino persuaded him?" How could Adele be missing from the four queens of Star Records that Simon wants to create?

"It's been signed, Valentino thinks her future is limitless, with an angelic voice and unparalleled talent!" Sonia Roman complimented.

"That's good," Simon nodded.

In this shrinking period of the traditional record industry, Simon certainly will not waste much energy to develop, just be an independent music production company, and then cooperate well with online music service providers.

"By the way, Sonia, the zombie-themed comic "The Walking Dead" released by Image Comics, we Xinghai Pictures are preparing to adapt it to TV, you go and get in touch with them," Simon leaned on the chair, "The Walking Dead" comic in 2003 Just released, "Resident Evil 3" will be released this year, "The Walking Dead" episodes can be put on the agenda.

Sonia Roman nodded. The hottest zombie movie in recent years has been Milla Jovovich's "Resident Evil" series.

"The Walking Dead" is the TV version of "Resident Evil"!

"By the way, Simon, the CW is willing to support our $2 million first episode of Gossip Girl to get our TV premiere!" said Sonia Roman.

"It turned out to be the CW TV station, yes, it seems that the Lionsgate TV production department produced a plot for AMC TV station "Mad Men", the writer and editor-in-chief of "The Sopranos"!" Simon feels a pity, it can be produced by Xinghai Entertainment. !

Sonia Roman laughed: "AMC Basic Cable, which used to broadcast classic movies, has not been broadcasting its own series for a long time!"

Sonia Roman doesn't like AMC TV. After all, AMC was a paid movie channel before, but it was converted to a basic cable network because of the ratings.

Simon sighed. These days, Simon has found a lot of good dramas from the TV scripts he has collected, and some of them have been discovered by other TV production companies.

AMC's "Mad Men" broke the precedent for basic cable TV stations to win the Emmy Awards. After all, the TVs that usually won the Emmy Awards before were all wireless TV stations and premium channels.

"Sonia, "X-Files" screenwriter Vince Gilligan has a script "Breaking Bad" in hand, and since 2005, Showtime, FX, SyFy, TNT, HBO and many other TV stations have handed them over The "Breaking Bad" script on the Internet was thrown into the trash." Of course Simon wants to snatch this AMC drama, "Mad Men" and "The Big Bang Theory" can't grab it, of course he wants this one.

"Those TV stations are not optimistic, should we still make it?" Of course Sonia Roman was puzzled.

Simon Pike said with a light-hearted expression: "The reason for the rejection of those TV station executives is very simple. I think no one wants to watch a story about a middle-aged uncle selling drugs in New Mexico, and he is still a big villain."

"At the beginning, the script of "Little Miss Sunshine" also thought that no one would watch a bland American family road comedy movie, and it turned out!"

Simon said and laughed, he was like a garbage transfer station, and took out the fine creative script inside.

"Simon, in this case, most of the production costs of the premiere episode will be financed by ourselves," Sonia Roman reminded. The more optimistic the TV station is about the script, the more readily they will pay for the premiere rights.

"Don't worry, I believe in Vince Gilligan, he can direct and edit, and he's a very talented filmmaker!" Simon will shoot the first season of "Breaking Bad" even at his own expense.

"But the "Gossip Girl" we made this year is going to be released in September. There shouldn't be time to develop the two "Breaking Bad" and "The Walking Dead", right?" Sonia Roman was a little puzzled and made three films at a time drama?

"Breaking Bad was produced by Vince Gilligan, and we'll put it on TV next year. As for The Walking Dead, I'll put it on the next year!" Simon felt that the company had to produce at least one show every year. The TV production department of Xinghai Entertainment should not be underestimated.

The screenwriters strike at the end of the year, Simon must start these screenwriters now, "Gossip Girl" don't worry, "The Walking Dead" can also start preparations in 2008, "Breaking Bad" depends on Vince Gilligan's own screenwriters Ability.

Fortunately, the first season of "Breaking Bad" was short, and even if the writers' strike came, Vince Gilligan himself could improve the script.

"Okay, give me the scripts for these two TV episodes," Sonia Roman said, looking at Simon again and asking:

"How many screenplay ideas did you find this from?"

"About 700 copies, I think Laura Collins or Martha Cosby will check it out for good ideas and win over what they can win," Simon said after all, his memory is not that good, many Things have to have an opportunity to be remembered.

Sonia Roman nodded and continued: "You said earlier that we would also prepare a reality show?"

"Yeah, do you have an idea?" Simon of course agreed.

"The video of Kim Kardashian's bed that broke out last month was very popular. As the daughter of a lawyer in the Simpson case, there is no shortage of topics. Her mother, Kris Kinner, is a TV producer who participated in the Having worked on Dancing with the Stars, Chris Kinner recently had an idea for a family reality show..."

"Support her, Xinghai TV supports her in making this show," Simon knew before Sonia Roman could finish the famous "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" family reality show.

"Previously, Kim Kardashian was the little valet of the rich lady Paris Hilton. Paris Hilton's popularity increased greatly after the video incident in 2003. I didn't expect her little valet to follow suit now." Simon really didn't expect that this is the popular reality show that was sent over.

Sonia Roman was stunned for a moment, this is too fast, but the family's reputation is not very good!

"Then I'll contact Chris Kinner to start the preparations?" Compared with making money, wind reviews and so on are sidelined.

"Hurry up, this is our Xinghai Entertainment's first entry into the reality show!" Simon nodded quickly.
