Chapter 573 Warner's invitation! 【Subscription】
Just as the training camp was getting better and better and the players' tacit understanding and teamwork were getting better and better, Lin Long, who had just finished a day of training, received a call.
His good friend Matt Damon came to Boston to meet him.
Although Damon didn't say it clearly on the phone, Lin Long was sensitively aware that Damon didn't come alone, and he didn't simply go back to his hometown to see, but since Damon didn't say much on the phone, Lin Long also I didn't ask, I drove the car directly to the hotel we had made an appointment with, and saw Matt Damon, who had been missing for a long time.
As expected by Lin Long, next to Matt Damon sat another old acquaintance.
It is precisely because of the great success of the Dark Knight that it swept away the decline in one fell swoop and became Richard Parsons, the next-generation CEO of Warner.
As soon as this guy who is best at interpersonal relationship saw Lin Long, he smiled and said:
"I deliberately didn't ask Matt to tell you that I was there, just wanted to surprise you, how is it, do you like this gift?"
"I don't want to give you the answer Parsons, the real answer that will crack our relationship! 35
Lin Long smiled and hugged him, sat down and said, "Come together, you two must be looking for me for something important."
"Of course, a very important event." Matt Damon said excitedly:
"You should know, we just took down JK Rowling and her wizarding world!"
"We?" Lin Long looked at Matt Damon playfully, it seems that this guy is now bound to Warner.
Matt Damon was not embarrassed at all, and continued: "Of course it is us! Parsons is here for this! As long as you agree, I can play Sirius! This is my favorite character, you Certainly not to give him to others."5
Lin Long looked at Parsons with a smile, and couldn't help feeling that this guy was really a chicken thief. Matt Damon, who had a better relationship with him, said that he was sure he was saving face. Not too businesslike character.
"You don't want me to be the director and shoot the entire seven Harry Potter films 々々."
Lin Long sat in the chair and looked at Parsons with ease.
"To be exact, not 7, but 10-12!" The eyes behind Parsons' glasses shot a very longing look: "Rowling promised that after the end of Harry Potter's main story, she will also There will be a whole new side story about Dumbledore and others when they were young."
"This is at least a brand new 3-part series! And the IP of Harry Potter is definitely the most popular, most anticipated and most unlikely to fail project in the world today! Lin, I hope it can be directed by you, and with you, I believe we can create a whole new series of movies that won't lose to Star Wars!
"And you can definitely become the most successful and hottest director in the world with this!"
Parsons' words are enough to make all film directors fascinated and motivated, but unfortunately, Lin Long is not very interested in this.
His main business is still playing basketball.
Lin Long said: "But you should know that I'm a basketball player, and I can make a movie once in a while, and let me carry the debt of more than a dozen movies and the expectations of hundreds of millions of Harry Potter fans around the world. , That's a bit too tiring, I don't want to spend the rest of the year filming and working hard on the set.
"The conditions can be negotiated, and I can give you exactly the same treatment as the Dark Knight! Even if you need, the investment ratio, the director's share, and it is no problem to increase you by 1-20%! Today's Warner, what I said Forget it!" Parsons was still reluctant to give up, and he continued to drive on his conditions enough to drive all directors crazy.
"Even ad placement, if you want all the wizards to wear LINSTAR sneakers, open a LINSTAR shop in Diagon Alley or Hogward Village, or even let the Celts participate in the Quidditch World Cup, just You are willing to take over, everything is negotiable! 99
Parsons' words made Lin Long tremble for a while. I'm afraid that the entire movie world will not have a better treatment and commitment than this.
Even Spielberg or Carmelo Anthony probably never got this kind of preferential treatment!
However, Lin Long is also clear that this is not because his status, strength and ability really surpass these big directors, but because he is a Parsons person, at least Parsons must think so!
Even Matt Damon showed an unbelievable expression.
Apparently, Parsons didn't tell him these lucrative Ponzi-like conditions.
"Sorry Richard." Lin Long still shook his head and said, "I still have to reject you. I prefer playing basketball to making movies! At my age, I don't want to put too much energy into movies."
Matt Damon's eyes widened when he heard Lin Long's refusal!
As if what he had just heard was that someone refused to be king of Great Britain, and insisted on becoming chieftain of the poorest African tribe.
Parsons can only shake his head helplessly: "Since you don't want to talk about this, then it seems unreasonable for me to continue, but if you don't shoot Harry Potter, you owe the fans two bats. Man, you can't forget it.
"々. Rest assured, I will never break my promises! Next year's offseason, I will return the movies I owe fans to them." Having said this, Lin Long suddenly frowned and said:
"Isn't that your purpose? You didn't think I would agree to shoot Harry Potter at all?"
"It's not that I didn't think so." Parsons smiled and shrugged: "What if you agree? After all, making movies is more important than playing basketball to make money!
"You people in management, your hearts are really fucking dirty." Lin Long couldn't help but swear, then called the waiter and said, "What is your most expensive main meal tonight? Give me one. I want to open a bottle of the most expensive red wine, and I want these two guys to bleed a little!
Parsons couldn't help laughing and said: "Although you don't direct Harry Potter, you can make a cameo. If you have time and ideas, you can contact me at any time! No matter who the director is in the end, I will definitely let him give Do you want a suitable role (of Zhao's). By the way, if you have any friends who are suitable for directors, you can recommend them to me."5
The first half of Parsons' remarks are serious. If Lin Long wants to make a cameo appearance, she will definitely save face. But the second half of the words were just casually said.
After all, in terms of connections and vision, Lin Long is no match for Parsons, who has been immersed in this way for half his life.
But what he didn't expect was that Lin Long actually smiled seriously: "I'm not familiar with the director, but there is a special effects company. Although they are still just a small studio, they have an unparalleled reputation. Talent! How about giving them a chance?
"Then at least let me see their works first, and they have to participate in the competition according to the normal process." Parsons nodded.
Lin Long nodded and said: "Of course, I guarantee you will be captivated by their talent! They are called double negatives! They will definitely become popular in the future and become a giant company in the special effects industry! 35
