The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2059

[2023 Crisis 4 Volts]

Renly can understand Arthur and Andre’s considerations. There is no doubt about Matthew’s ability. At the same time, he is also their most trusted friend. If Matthew can come over and serve as the leader of the legal department of Sisyphus Pictures, there is no doubt that is the perfect solution.

But Renly refused.

The reason why Matthew is Matthew is that when he stands on the court and starts his defense, he can shine brightly, just like Renly stands in front of the camera and on the stage.

They all have their own dreams, and support each other in different ways to pursue each other without hesitation.

Renly knew that if he spoke, Matthew would nod; but he couldn’t and didn’t want to.

“I still like Matthew standing on the court.” Facing Arthur’s eyes that still refused to give up, Renly ended with the simplest sentence.

Arthur raised his hands dejectedly, then slumped his shoulders against the back of the chair, “I’m your brother, okay? Why don’t you support my dream?”

“Aren’t you living your dream now? Or Say, I misunderstood? Well, I’ll tell Andrei and let him give you back your freedom.” Renly said lightly, and then you could see Arthur’s expression stiffening little by little, without the restraint of an aristocrat at all. And restrained, this made Renly shake his head gently, “Alf and you have been in London for so many years, and she still hasn’t collapsed. I think she has worked hard.”

Arthur said that he received 100,000 critical hits.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Edith’s mind, who was watching the play, and she quickly grabbed it, “Have you all forgotten Charles Dormer? Do you remember which direction of law Charles focuses on?”

Charles Dormer, Eaton Dormer Mo’s brother, the second largest in the Domo family, is also a lawyer.

At the beginning, when Matthew came to New York, he accepted the invitation of Charles, and established a law firm here. Both of them served as partners, and gradually opened up their own business.

“Charles? Are you sure?” Arthur, the know-it-all, immediately showed a meaningful expression, “If you let Charles go to the party, then he is definitely a good hand, but if you let Charles go to court, it’s better to let him directly Guillotine.”

“We don’t need Charles to go to court, we need Charles to sit in the office and do the copy — wait, we don’t need Charles to deal with the papers, we need the ability of Charles to be able to create a law firm in New York, And to the present, that speaks to his ability, doesn’t it? In the legal circle, his name should be more useful than you or Andre.” Renly was keenly aware of the key.

Arthur has always regarded Charles as his “kind” – a party animal,

Andre is the same, so they never considered Charles’ professional ability, but now that I think about it, maybe Charles is a more suitable candidate than Matthew.

“Even if it’s not Charles, I know that Matthew knows a group of lawyers in London, and he can give some candidates. You can discuss it with Andre, or you can ask Charles’ opinion. I know that Charles is not very reliable. But you and Charles should have your own language system, and you can tell what’s true and what’s false,” Renly added.

“Ouch!” Arthur expressed his protest with a cry of pain, but he did not continue to be snarky, and nodded to show his understanding, “In addition, regarding the Don Quixote Channel, the planning book and the platform framework blueprint are all It has already come out, but we really don’t have too many concepts at present. You’d better take a look at it and give some opinions and ideas. We will let the engineers see if it can be realized. Next, we will set up a marketing department to carry out preliminary research and design the platform. The blueprint

is further refined and adjusted.” Renly nodded in agreement.

“If you have a plan and blueprint, give it to you directly, or send an email…” Arthur didn’t quite understand these details, and usually handed it over to the secretary, “By the way, my secretary said, every time I give you Sending emails, you don’t reply, which makes our work here impossible, and I can’t go to Nathan every time, can I? God, it’s so sad that I contact you and have to go through Nathan. ”

First of all, it was your secretary who contacted Nathan, not you.” Renly ignored Arthur’s “grievance” at all. “Secondly, if it is an urgent or important email, you can send it directly to Matthew, My emails are all being sorted by Matthew. The planning book and blueprint, you send to Matthew, and he will tell me as soon as possible.”

“Wait, what about Matthew’s own work?” Edith was a little confused up speed.

Renly shrugged lightly, “He has a habit of tidying up, I’m just doing him a small favor. Besides, my emails are not much to do, and now all job offers are sent to Andy and Roy, privately. As for the email, it’s all irrelevant, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t deal with it; for the really important things, you all come to me directly, don’t you? It’s like now.”

“…Does Matthew know that you are so brazen?” Arthur asked silently.

“Yes.” Renly replied calmly.

Arthur surrendered, “Okay, okay, I understand. We have asked the engineers and production team about the Don Quixote channel, and the fastest progress will have to wait until early next year. It is estimated that there will be no way to complete the first edition within this year. ; After that, several rounds of internal testing are needed to be revised. The ideal situation is that it will be officially launched in January 2016. If there is an unexpected situation, then the time will be pushed back.”

Renly nodded, “That’s good. , which fully meets our needs. In the next eighteen months, we can start to find more copyright cooperation. At the same time, we can also shoot more original works of our own. When the channel is launched, we only need to list a resource. The library list can attract the audience’s subscriptions, original works, and this is the core method for us to compete with other online streaming media.”

“So, what about the movies that are produced? We shoot and produce them, but there is no platform to broadcast them. The production team Let’s not talk about the protests and dissatisfaction, but what about ourselves? If there is no way to return the funds, there will be no way to continue the follow-up filming and production, and our funds will not be enough to make up for this black hole. Isn’t this a problem?” Arthur Another concern was raised.

Obviously, Andre didn’t have time to talk with Arthur in detail about this part. After all, the work on Sisyphus Films and Don Quixote Channel’s initial stage was really too large and complicated. Everyone was like Spinning like a spinning top, I wish I could have a clone, but I am still too busy.

This is always the case in the startup phase.

“I have discussed this issue with Andre. You can discuss the specific situation with him. In short, we are now ready to cooperate more with Sony, but whether we need to establish our own distribution channels is still under negotiation.” The process is complicated, and Renly gave the answer in the most concise way, and then let Arthur and Andre discuss it in detail.

Arthur understood immediately, “You mean, will the movie we’re making be released in theaters?”

“Yes.” Renly nodded affirmatively.

Arthur let out a sigh of relief, “That can’t be better.” As long as it is released, the box office and peripheral income can be used as follow-up start-up funds to ensure that Sisyphus Pictures can continue to operate and generate more profits. ; otherwise, Hall Ventures would not be profitable for eighteen months, and that would be a disaster.

“Also, two TV series…” Arthur said again, Renly immediately remembered the projects he had picked, “‘Stranger Things’ and ‘Sin Night’,” Arthur nodded in affirmation , “Now the script of ‘Sin Night Run’ has been created, and the script of ‘Stranger Things’ is also nearing the final stage, but we are now starting to produce two TV episodes at the same time, which may be a bit difficult. Which do you suggest to invest first? production?”

In fact, the real question is: which work is more likely to be a success?

If the capital chain of Sisyphus Pictures breaks, and another work cannot be produced in a short period of time, the first work will either sell the copyright or be used as a turnaround, no matter which one it is, it must be sufficient. outstanding.

There is no way, some of their stalls are now too large, and they are running on multiple lines, fully blooming, and prosperous. The seemingly prosperous flowers are actually full of dangers, and a slight negligence may lead to a complete collapse. That kind of feeling like walking on thin ice is also entrepreneurship. difficult problems that must be faced at the stage.

Renly didn’t understand the deep meaning of Arthur’s words – he really lacked the skills to run the company, “Whichever works first to finish casting, which one will be shot first.”

“I mean, if we If you need to concentrate on forcing, which one should you choose?” Arthur had to express it in a more straightforward way.

Renly didn’t fully understand, but it was still a vague concept.

sonicmtl.com “‘Running in the Night of Sin’.” He gave the answer succinctly, “The main actors of ‘Stranger Things’ are all children, and it is not easy to choose a child actor who is spiritual and fits the role. In contrast, ‘Sin Night Run’ requires veteran actors with certain skills, Steven Zaillian and Richard Price, they know many familiar faces in the industry, and the casting work will It

‘s going very well.”

Arthur savored it carefully, and then nodded lightly to show his understanding, “I see, after returning to Los Angeles, we will have a meeting, and if necessary, I will… I Matthew will be invited to look at the minutes.” He expressed his strong dissatisfaction at Renly with a sullen look: they were so busy in Los Angeles that Renly didn’t even bother to read the minutes.

“Do you believe it? Matthew might just hang up.” Renly had no sympathy at all, and laughed schadenfreude.

Arthur had black lines all over his head.

Looking at Arthur’s melancholy expression, Renly chuckled, “I’ll tell Matthew. However, I think the premise framework has been drawn up, my work is over, and the next step is to belong to I don’t want to compete with you for the focus of attention on your stage. What do you think?”
