Plan

Warner Conference Room.

On one side is Steve Kevin, the major shareholder of MGM, the owner of the Dawn Film Company, and a famous Hollywood director.

On the other side, there are many senior leaders of Warner.

The two sides, on the Batman Dark Knight series proposed by Kevin, are having heated discussions.

"Director Kevin, what you said is to separate Batman from other superheroes, I don't agree!"

A high-level leader took the lead in attacking, and Batman before this had a strong comic style.

But the plan proposed by Steve Kevin is a complete realism, which directly transfers Gotham City, the city in the comics, into the real New York City.

And Batman's superhero identity was also stripped from him by Kevin.

Presented in front of Warner executives, it is less like Batman, and more like a realistic crime action movie.

This made several high-level officials of Warners panic.

If it weren't for the fact that this project was proposed by Kevin, a well-known director, it would have been swept away by Warner Bros.

Even so, Kevin's project was still strongly resisted by Warner's executives.

Batman, it should be the Batman in the Batman comics, is the superhero in the minds of Americans.

Not an ordinary person in Kevin's plan.

Kevin just watched the rebuttals from several high-level leaders calmly, and the whole person looked very calm.

He can understand these objections.

This is like a big talk about Journey to the West. In people's cognition, Sun Wukong should be the Monkey King, not a human being, and it is even more impossible to fall in love.

But the big talk about Journey to the West completely broke people's cognition, and Sun Wukong not only talked about love.

Still a lot of love.

This is undoubtedly surprising, and it also created an unsatisfactory box office.

The high-level people who hold opposing opinions basically have this kind of thinking.

But the real decision-making is not them, but the president of Warner, Robinoff.

In the memory of the previous life, Robinov seems to have left after the Dark Knight, and I don't know if it is because of the successive failures of the DC universe.

caused by.

But, apparently, Nolan's Dark Knight moved Robinoff.

So today...

..

Robinov, who was stared at by everyone, was very hesitant.

In terms of personal feelings and movie viewing preferences, he is actually not against the Batman Dark Knight, but other executives are also right.

Can the audience accept such an unprecedented Batman?

You must know that this is an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. Once it is lost, even if he is the president, he cannot afford the consequences of this loss.

So far, Robinoff is very grateful for the idea of ​​La Kevin investing 30%.

This greatly reduces Warner's risk.

After hesitating for a while, Robinov glanced at the executives present and said suddenly:

"Since everyone disagrees, let's raise our hands to vote!"

"Hands up for those who approve of Steve Kevin's plan!"

While speaking, Robinov was the first to raise his hand.

In terms of movies, although he is the president of Warner Bros., he is not a director and producer after all. To a certain extent, he is actually a layman.

As a layman, he only knows one thing: a layman should not lead an expert.

He just looks at the grades.

And Steve Kevin, as a rookie director, has already proven his strength with four consecutive box office hits.

At the same time, according to the director law in Hollywood.

Steve Kevin is undoubtedly at the peak of a director's creative period at this time, and the possibility of his next movie failing at the box office is infinitely close to zero.

After realizing this, Robinoff resolutely chose to support Steve Kevin's new movie project.

There were ten Warner executives present, and after Robinoff raised his hand, seven more executives raised their hands.

Obviously, they have more cinematic trust in Steve Kevin than risk.

At this point, Warners agreed with Steve Kevin's film project.

The production cost of the Dark Knight two films is as high as 200 million US dollars.

This also means that Kevin needs to invest 60 million US dollars, but with the remuneration of the script producer and director, the knight Kevin only needs to spend 40 million US dollars to get these two movies 30% share.

....

After some feuding with Warner Bros. executives, Kevin left Warner with a plan.

Came to the morning light film company.

As soon as he entered the door, Kevin heard the sweet shouts of the Alexander sisters.

"Boss, you're here!"

Helen and Emma immediately ran out of the front desk and hugged Kevin's hands very actively.

In just one year, Steve Kevin's status in Hollywood was a direct triple jump, which made them both admire him.

It's just that I don't usually have many opportunities to get in touch with Kevin, so I finally caught Kevin today.

The two girls immediately came over very affectionately.

Kevin kept his eyes fixed and looked like a gentleman, and dragged the sisters to Dawson's office.

"Boss, you're here."

Dawson stood up to welcome Kevin with a flattering smile. As for his two nieces, they were entangled in Kevin like this, and he couldn't see them at all.
