The screen returned to darkness, and Harvey Weinstein sat there but did not move. Instead, he turned to look at Jones Butler and fully recognized what she said. If the front of the film could be considered a first-class horror film, the final stunning ending would sublimate the entire film. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small production of top-notch quality.

His head turned again, and his eyes fell on Murphy, who was controlling the camera.

Think about the movie "Hard Fruit Candy" a few months ago. He is still a director who only knows single-line narratives. Even single-line narratives are not very good. He has to rely on sensitive themes to attract audiences. Look at the current skillful use of various cross montages, and almost perfectly integrates the advantages of suspense films in the main plot, especially the final ending, which is simply amazing.

The film is not without flaws, such as the inevitable roughness of low-cost movies, but excellent creativity and clever use of footage cover up these.

The curtains in the drawing room were pulled open, and Harvey Weinstein could no longer sit still, and did not hello to Jones Butler for introduction, and walked towards Murphy.

"Hello, Director Stanton."

He came over and stretched out a hand to Murphy. Murphy stepped forward and shook Harvey Weinstein's right hand hard, "Let's call me Murphy."

Harvey Weinstein nodded and said directly, "I want to talk to you."

Murphy is just asking for it.

Without referring to the evaluation of Miramax and others, Harvey Weinstein waved to Jones Butler and took Murphy to a reception room next to him.

Jones Butler made a cup of coffee for Murphy and placed it on the coffee table in front of him. Harvey Weinstein looked at the guy in his early twenties, but he was not in a hurry to speak.

They didn't speak, and Murphy was also silent, besides saying thank you to Jones Butler.

Harvey Weinstein's head has been rotating at high speed. He has operated countless videos and has a certain ability to judge the possible market value of many videos. These may not be accurate, but they rarely fail.

If a film wants to reflect the real market value, operation and marketing are the key, but it will not ignore the role of the film itself. Even if the promotion and distribution are excellent, it will still fail in the end.

There is no doubt that this "Saw" has sufficient selling points and is very operational.

He even recalled the company's "Scream" released by the company a few years ago, which are as stunning as the horror film genre.

The only difference is that Wes Craven, the director of "Scream", is a master of the horror film field, while the opposite is an unknown new director.

Harvey Weinstein's face was calm. These thoughts would definitely not be revealed on his face. What he had the most was how to get the copyright of this video at the lowest cost.

"Excellent horror movie." He leaned on the sofa and took the initiative to break the silence. "Murphy, you are making great progress. Are you interested in continuing to work with Miramax?"

Murphy looked surprised, "My entire crew will be so happy that I can get the recognition of a professional like you."

He paused and swallowed, "I really want to work with Miramax Pictures."

"Very good," Harvey Weinstein's face filled with fat, "I can give you a guarantee here that this video will definitely enter theaters and will be screened in no less than 500 theaters. Audiences across North America can see this video and know you, an excellent director."

"That's great!" Murphy laughed happily.

His excited smile was on his face, but his heart was calm. Harvey Weinstein was using his reputation as bait.

How many people who enter Hollywood don’t want to become famous? The fat man sitting on the sofa knows this very well, and he and Miramax don’t care about it, and what he wants most is profit.

Harvey Weinstein has come into contact with countless newcomers to Hollywood, and few people can resist the temptation of being famous. To be precise, none of them, including Quentin Tarantino, who was made famous by him.

There are many things in Hollywood that gain both fame and fortune, but not many for a newcomer. As long as the other party wants more fame, he will naturally compromise with Miramax in terms of profit.

Miramax is the industry's top independent film publisher, and there are group companies like Disney behind it. Harvey Weinstein believes that the other party must know this.

Seeing Murphy's excited expression, he also showed a smile, and the confidence of a successful person was brought out unconsciously.

"Murphy, give this video a price." He could make the decision.

What does this mean? Of course Murphy can understand. He smiled excitedly on his face, but said, "Does Miramax want to buy out the copyright of this video?"

Harvey Weinstein nodded slightly. This was obvious. Only by buying out can Miramax let go of his hands and maximize profits.

Walking on this difficult film path is not only for the film dream that has not been realized on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, but also for the better life. Only this path is the most familiar and most likely to succeed.

Miramax has outstanding independent film operation skills, and those Harvey Weinstein said are possible. Murphy believes that as long as the copyright of the film is sold to Miramax, he will make his mark in Hollywood like the director he once did.

From this perspective, it is not unacceptable to sell off copyright, but the price of selling off...

How much can an independent movie be sold? Murphy won't have too many extravagant expectations, let alone expect people like the distribution company or Harvey Weinstein to discover their conscience.

He thought for half a minute and said slowly, "Thirty million dollars!"

If Miramax is willing to offer such a price, Murphy will be able to accept it. Such a sum of money is enough to make him plan more and truly gain a foothold in Hollywood and move forward step by step. If he is lucky, he may become the coveted director who has gained fame and fortune like James Cameron or Steven Spielberg.

I can still imagine the Oscar Little Golden Man in the future.

How many directors don’t want to get the best director of the Little Golden Man? Maybe some people don’t want it. Murphy asked himself, still very much, I really want to try to touch the Little Golden Man.

In just a moment, countless things floated in his mind, future success, future fame and fortune, future status, future ability to stand in the film circle and look down...

In this business country, all these require money as the basis.

Is there a precedent for buying out an independent small production of $30 million? Murphy has never heard of it, but he still said this number.

Maybe others would think he was crazy, but in Murphy's perception, this video is worth this number.

Moreover, asking for a lot of money to pay it back locally is the most normal thing in negotiations.
