Disney is in the process of convening a board meeting.
As leaders of recent key projects, Reed McCasses and Robert Eisner were allowed to make an exception.
And the person who is speaking at this time is none other than Disney's dictatorial tyrant - CEO Michael Eisner.
"Robert, when will preparations begin for a sequel to Born to Match?"
He asked his nephew.
"Martin has turned down the request to continue starring in the sequel and writing the script, but we have his authorization so we can write the script and make the sequel ourselves. "
Robert saw Michael Eisner's displeasure, and quickly explained: "Actually, Martin has developed a little fast in the past two years, and now he is not suitable to continue to play this kind of naughty and cute child role in terms of height and appearance." "
The directors of Disney in the audience recalled Martin's current image and couldn't help but nod in agreement.
It is true, and it may backfire if he continues to star in the sequel. "Twenty-Nine-Seven" "However, Martin also gave us some advice, saying that the sequel is actually not suitable to follow the first part, because the story of the first part has already been told. Carter added.
After taking a sip of water and moistening his throat, he continued: "He thought that a story should be rewritten, and in order to keep it fresh, it was better for the protagonist to be a girl, and he also recommended the youngest daughter of the Olsen family, Elizabeth Olsen, to play the role of this daughter. "
"Olson's kids?"
Michael Eisner nodded.
He was familiar with the family, and the Olsen sisters had also starred in Disney dramas, and at that time he felt that the parents of the little sisters were rare sober people among the parents of Hollywood child stars, and they were also very shrewd and far-sighted.
"Have you met that Elizabeth and spoken to her guardian?"
"I've seen it, I've talked about it. "
It's just that Elizabeth's mother thinks her daughter is too young, and some don't want her daughter to continue to appear in movies, so it didn't work out. Oh, and Elizabeth has a small role in Martin's new film, Hide and Seek. "
"Hide and seek? You continue to follow up on this matter and convince her!"
"Understood!"
"What about the script, is Martin still unwilling to continue to be the screenwriter of the sequel?"
"Uh, yes, he refuses again! He said he had been working on the second Harry Potter book recently, and a new novel, and didn't have the time or energy to write anything else. "
Michael Eisner frowned, Martin's continuous rejection made him a little unhappy, has this kid forgotten how he became famous, it was Disney who invested in his first movie in the first place!
This fifty-seven-year-old man was an extremely arrogant individualist who did not like others to disobey his decisions.
Counting his achievements during his tenure at Disney, while his achievements are remarkable, there are also some flaws.
Because he likes to make decisions according to his own personal preferences, such as demanding that Disney produce musicals, etc., and even the original design of the chicken in "Four-Eyed Chicken" was a girl, and the decision to change it to a boy was also modified by this proponent.
Before 1994, he also had an old friend and old partner, Frank Wells, to cushion and appease him in the conflicts with board members and subordinates.
But after Frank Wells died in a helicopter crash in 1994, Eisner's own assertive and brutal personality caused displeasure among many at Disney.
This also forced him to support cronies like Reid McCasses and Robert Eisner within the company to ensure his authority and voice in the company.
But this behaviour in turn increased the dislike of the other directors.
A vicious circle.
However, although Michael Eisner is arrogant, he still knows how to exercise restraint when dealing with people who do not threaten his position.
Therefore, although he was a little dissatisfied with Martin, this dissatisfaction was suppressed by his reason, and he did not target Martin for this trivial matter.
He tapped his finger on the table and said, "Keep in touch with Martin, this kid is a gold mine, and if possible, try to win the rights to adapt the Harry Potter series of movies and TV series." "
He really has a good eye!
............
Burbank.
Warner Bros. Pictures.
CEO Alan Horn slapped the table, stood up, and said in a firm tone: "All in all, Martin doesn't have a fixed partner company now, so we have to poach him at all costs." "
"Martin's novels are goldmines, especially the Harry Potter series, and we have to get it. "
"I heard that Martin is recently working with Harvey's Miramax to launch the Lord of the Rings series, but Harvey is not willing to invest too much money, we can buy Harvey's share at a high price, presumably this fat man will not mind making a lot of money easily. "
However, the film is said to be directed by a newcomer, who is still a New Zealander. A subordinate said.
"So what, I believe in Martin's vision, even if he loses this bet, Martin owes us a favor, isn't it easier to talk about bundling cooperation at that time?"
I have to say that Alan Horn is a person with great courage and ability, no wonder he has been in this circle for 50 years, and he will be poached by Disney in the future and control the world's most valuable film company........
............
Paramount.
Shirley Lansing's office. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
This charming strong woman is on the phone.
"Tommy, how's your contact with Martin?"
"Okay, okay, I can wait, I know you're busy right now because of the release of "Island Cry", but also please as soon as possible. "
"Ok, let's get together sometime!"
After hanging up, Shirley Lansing frowned, and Cruise seemed a little resistant to reaching Martin.
Hehe, did he feel jealous of this little boy?
Also, Martin's talent and ability have been verified by the market, no matter which company wants to tie him up, he must pay a big price, Tommy is afraid that the resources invested in him by the company will be divided!
Looks like we're going to have to get someone else to help with Martin.
As a successful businesswoman and manager, Shirley Lansing is not emotional.
It's one thing for her to like Tom Cruise, it's another to use Martin or not.
............
Martin didn't know that there were a lot of people who were playing his mind.
He's reading the script right now.
Peter Jackson has already written the script for The Lord of the Rings and sent it to his mailbox.
This fat man's hand speed is really good!
Martin clicked on the mailbox, downloaded the file, and opened it, and dense text appeared in front of him.
Made, you still scan the documents, are you afraid that I will make changes for you?
Martin complained.
Then drag the mouse and start reading.
Although it is only the first draft of the script, the content is already very complete, and God knows how many times the fat man of Harvey asked Peter, the fat man, to revise the script 0.0 before he intervened.
According to Richard, once Peter cried while changing it, crying and scolding Harvey for not being a thing.
Martin reads quickly, and his optic nerve and brain react far faster than humans.
It only took an hour for Martin to read the entire script of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and then stretch.
There is no problem, it is probably the same as the plot trend in my memory, and a few changes were probably changed during filming.
Jeff sat across from him, looking up and down Martin's office, a kind of light luxury style decoration that hadn't yet caught on and made Jeff feel fresh.
True, Martin already has his own office and even his own company.
It's called "Martin Meyers Films", or "Meyers Films" for short, and its headquarters is in Burbank, Los Angeles.
Normal, isn't it!?
(Brothers, please take care of it, evaluation, flowers, collections, and rewards are all here, thank you.) )。
