Lucbesson knew that Zhang Ran had a strong temper, but he still reminded him: "I think I can talk. Now when talking to them, they will definitely offer better conditions than before, and we can make more money!" He criticized Harvey when he clarified, but did not mention Bowei or Disney, but just stayed on the front line, thinking that everyone still had the possibility of cooperation.

Zhang Ran shook his head gently: "They can deceive us once and twice. It's not that they will tear the contract again, but that they may be tampering with the distribution process. They have their own media and channels, and advertising is through their media. The advertising costs are not decided by them. We have no ability to supervise them at all, and they can also tamper with the DVD distribution! I don't want to sue them because of these!"

Luc Besson nodded. The box office of many Germans involved in the investment in Hollywood movies has been very good, but the final settlement is a loss. Investors can't pay any money at all. In fact, they are using this method. You cannot effectively supervise the distribution of Hollywood film companies, so many companies cooperate with Hollywood to sell copyrights directly, rather than share the accounts. He pondered: "Then I'll contact other Hollywood distribution companies, but big companies have their own blockbusters to be released during the summer season, and may not take over. I'm afraid they can only find medium-sized distribution companies!"

In fact, Miramax was initially chosen to be responsible for North America's distribution. In addition to the better conditions for Harvey's opening, one of the important reasons is that Miramax will not have any movies released next summer, so it can be fully released.

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "It would be best if there is a big company to take over. If not, companies like Lionsgate can do it. Forget it. I heard that they cheated Peter Jackson of the money in "Lord of the Rings". Now Jackson wants to sue them. I can only ask you for the release, and this matter must be finalized as soon as possible!"

Lucbesson said: "Leave the release to me, just make the movie with peace of mind!"

At this time, the deputy director came over to inform Zhang Ran that the preparations for the shooting were done and it was ready for official shooting. Zhang Ran sat down in front of the monitor again and shouted loudly: "All groups are ready. Turn on the computer!"

Harvey and Jacobson waited outside the crew for more than four hours until the crew finished work at 8 o'clock in the evening. The crew members came out of the studio. When they saw Zhang Ran, they quickly got out of the car and went up to meet them.

Jacobson tore up the contract but failed to get the copyright of "Space-Time Warrior". It was equivalent to throwing 10 million in vain. If this matter is not handled well, she will not only become a laughing stock in the industry, but also cannot explain it to the board of directors. The only way is to get the copyright of "Space-Time Warrior" again. Even if you can't make much money in the end, it will be better than throwing 10 million in vain!

In the shopping mall, face is never more important than money, not to mention that it is related to her own face or her position. So even if Zhang Ran ridiculed her, she still has to take down the copyright of the movie again.

Harvey is not as anxious as Jacobson, but the quality of "Time Warrior" is good and it will definitely make money. He still hopes to get the distribution rights again, and smiles: "Zhang, it's really hard to see you!"

Zhang Ran heard something Luke Besson said. After filming "The Kiss of the Dragon", Jet Li took the movie to Hollywood with the producer Chasman and found a manager from the top six to talk about the copyright of the United States, but the manager left it for an entire hour. Two years later, Jet Li's movies sold well in the United States. The manager came to Jet Li and wanted to invite him to act in the movie. So Jet Li left the manager for two hours, and then asked him: "Don't be angry!" The manager said with a smile: "Don't be angry, it should be, it should be!"

Hollywood is a particularly realistic place. Especially when Hollywood comes in and film merchants, if you can make money, he can kneel down and call you grandpa; if you can't make money, no matter how brilliant the past is, you will be a bunch of ****s!

The scene in front of me is really similar to the scene depicted by Lucbesson!

Zhang Ran said enthusiastically: "Oh. Isn't this Harvey? Why are you here? I think you have gained weight. You must be in a happy mood recently, right? Ms. Jacobson is here too. She looks full of spring and is almost ten years younger. She can't tell she is sixty!"

Jacobson's mouth twitched, damn it, I'm only fifty years old, okay? Harvey blew: "Zhang, you're really good at joking! The filming of the movie is going well, right?"

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "It's very smooth, I've picked up 10 million for free. It's so smooth. Are you here to find me? Isn't you send me money again?"

Jacobson's heart stinged, and Zhang Ran's words were like a knife stabbing directly into her heart. This was a slap in the face and he didn't give him any face!

Harvey smiled awkwardly, but he was thick-skinned: "It can be said that, but this is not a place to talk. Let's find a place to sit down and talk?"

Zhang Ran shrugged his shoulders, his face full of helplessness: "No, my student celebrates his birthday today. We will hold a birthday party for him later. There is no time. If you have anything, just say it, and I will leave after you finish talking!"

The embarrassment flashed across Harvey's face: "Zhang, we are very optimistic about you and your movies very much. We are here today to talk about cooperation with you!"

Zhang Ran did not be polite to them and directly turned on the mockery mode: "Of course, if you don't like it, you won't give me 10 million for free, but let's not cooperate. To be honest, I can't believe you and don't want to cooperate with you anymore!"

Jacobson was stabbed again. She wanted to say that if it weren't for ten million, who would have wanted to talk to you, the damn Qing dynasty! But she knew that it was not the time to lose her temper, so she forced her anger in her heart.

Harvey's smile became even more awkward: "Zhang, I think there may be a misunderstanding between us. Let's find a place to chat carefully. Any misunderstandings can be solved!"

Zhang Ran said indifferently: "Have, there is no misunderstanding between us! How can there be misunderstandings between us? Of course, if it is a misunderstanding to be able to get ten million for free, I hope this misunderstanding will happen several times!"

Jacobson's face turned green. She had been in this circle for more than 20 years. She had been staying in DreamWorks and Disney. Now she is Bo Wei's boss, but she was slapped in the face again and again by a Chinese boy. She really couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly: "Zhang, don't forget that this is Hollywood. Offending a big company like Disney will not do you any good! Today we come with sincerity, don't be ungrateful!"

Zhang Ran sneered: "I know, you said that last time, but what's the result? I still said the same thing. This world is very big, and you can't cover the sky with just your hands!"

Zhang Ran naturally heard the threat in Jacobson's words, but he didn't care at all. Most of the funds of this movie were operated through finance, and the actual investment was more than 20 million. Even if it was not released in North America, it would not lose money. He himself had no plans to develop in Hollywood, so he didn't care at all!

Harvey sighed and said, "Zhang, you are fighting. There is no need to do this! You are a very talented director. If you work with us, you will shine on the Oscar stage!"

Zhang Ran suddenly laughed. He was not a tricky man and had no obsession with Oscars. What he wanted was actually very simple, just to shoot the movie he wanted to make happily: "Oscars are good things, but that's it. If you have to say desire, the ten-year ranking of "Visual and Audio" is what I want. I don't have high requirements. If you can get me into the top 50, can you cooperate with you? "

Harvey almost vomited an old blood. You still call it a low demand, so what does it mean to be high?

"Visual and Audio" is a film magazine sponsored by the British Film Academy. Since 1952, the top ten classic movies votes participated by film professionals around the world have been organized every ten years. After the votes of these people were summarized, the top 50 films in the history of the film were found.

In 2002, "Visual and Audio" organized more than 800 critics and directors around the world to conduct the sixth selection. Among the top 50 films selected, there are only three films after 90 years. Abbas's "Close-up", Wong Kar-wai's "Flowers in the Mood for Love", and David Lynch's "Mulholland Road". The others are films before the 1990s, most of which are black and white. These films are film history classics that have experienced the test of time and have had an important influence on later films and directors.

This list is selected from fifty movies around the world. Most of them are art movies, and even big directors like Spielberg are not qualified to be on the list. What is the difference between a newcomer like Zhang Ran and his dreams to be on this list!

Harvey knew that Zhang Ran was deliberately making things difficult for him, so he said helplessly: "Zhang, we sincerely want to talk to you today, please don't let us do it."

"Since you said that, I will just say it." Zhang Ran smiled and then said lightly, "I am a very fragile person and very easily injured. Because I have suffered serious harm in this matter. I don't have any other requests, so I hope Michael Eisner apologizes to me! If I can do it, everything is easy to say!"

Harvey frowned and said helplessly: "Zhang, you know this is impossible!"

Michael Eisner has been a figure who has been provoking Disney's banner since his death. After 20 years of ups and downs, Disney has changed from the youngest of the eight major film companies to the boss, making great contributions to Disney's glory. Because of this, Eisner firmly erected the role of godfather in Disney World. Who can compete with him? Who dares to compete with him? Now Eisner is a famous tyrant at Disneyland, arbitrary and stubborn. Will the tyrant think he is wrong? Will the tyrant apologize to a Chinese? It's a dream!

Zhang Ran said seriously: "This is my condition! I just want an apology. If I can't do it, then we have nothing to talk about!"

Harvey sighed and said, "You are not a qualified businessman at all if you do this!"

Zhang Ran looked at him and said seriously: "You said it right. I am not a qualified businessman, and I have never regarded myself as a businessman. I am just a director! Some people say that directors are paranoid, and this is right, at least I am!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Ran stared at Jacobson and said coldly: "You deliberately tore up the contract and caused the bank to withdraw its investment. Now they are on the blacklist. Even if you have a pre-sale contract, it will be difficult to borrow from the bank. Even if the insurance company provides me with a guarantee for the film completion, it is very difficult for me to raise funds after making a movie. Cutting off the future is like killing parents! Now I want to see you unlucky!"

Jacobson couldn't help but feel hot, and forgot what calmness was, and cursed: "Damn Qing Guo, you will regret your choice today!

Zhang Ran was not angry, but laughed: "I don't know if I will regret it, but I know you must regret it now! Thank you for your ten million, Jacobson girl! I wish you a wonderful night!"

After saying that, Zhang Ran owed Jacobson and turned around and left.
