Chapter 386 Another Jennifer

When I planned to acquire a film company with distribution channels last year, Eric also collected information about Orion Pictures.==If you have read this chapter, please move to "/" to read the latest chapter.

The film company was founded in the late seventies almost the same time as the Weinstein brothers Miramax.

However, compared to Miramax's small-scale strife, the establishment of Orion Pictures is a huge hit, attracting a large number of famous filmmakers such as Francescoppola and Sylves Stallone to cooperate. Even the first part of "Terminator" was released by Orion.

After Orion was founded, eighteen movies were produced in just five years, of which ten of them were profitable, and this proportion was definitely very high among film companies.

Therefore, Orion Pictures was once rated by the media as another Hollywood player that is the most threatening to several major film companies, and it also caused competition among Viacom's Somerrestone and John Kruger of Metropolitan Media. In the end, the wealthy John Kruger took control of Orion Pictures with huge sums of money.

But since the late 1980s, Orion Pictures' situation has taken a sharp decline. Due to the losses in production of films for several consecutive years, Orion Pictures has become increasingly liable for more and more debts and is facing bankruptcy at any time.

"Okay, don't sarcastic people. I heard that John Kruger had planned to sell Orion to oil tycoon Marvin Davis. He was a big moneymaker and might make a comeback."

"When did you see the news?" Carta asked.

Eric thought for a while and said, "A week ago, a news article in the Hollywood Reporter."

Carta said: "Then you definitely don't know that the business has been ruined. Marvin Davis lost a lot when he bought the 20th Century Fox that year and had to resell it to Mr. Murdoch. How could he fall again? John Kruger has already planned to stop Orion's production. I heard that the company's production department is preparing to take down the copyright of the TV series "Adams Family" in Orion."

Eric just shrugged: "What if he is, let's talk about us."

"About the second plan..." Karta nodded, and was about to continue speaking, suddenly he looked at Eric seriously and said, "Eric, I suddenly understood something. Since the copyright of "Dance with the Wolf" is in your hands, Liz is using her temperament to win this movie. It should be your instructions?"

"Yes," Eric did not deny it.

Carta hesitated for a moment, remembered Eric's usual vision, and asked again: "What do you think about the box office prospects of this movie? If you are optimistic, let's put it next year's Thanksgiving. If you want this movie to make way for "The Silence of the Lambs", then will it be released on Christmas?"

"This is definitely a movie with the potential to hit the best Oscars. I only saw this. As for the box office, I really have no clue, but it shouldn't be too bad," Eric said with a truth.

"So that's the case," Carta saw that Eric had no confidence in the box office prospects of the movie, so he said: "Then follow the release strategy of "Rain Man". In December, because it is Christmas, film companies with this kind of theme can only produce up to 1,000 screens, but we will definitely do much better in promotion than Orion."

It took several hours to discuss the specific details of the cooperation and send Eric out of the office building, Carta asked: "Eric, although there are some questions about the position of this, I am still very curious. Since you have obtained the copyright of this movie, why not release it yourself?"

Eric said helplessly: "Do you think Liz will be willing to go crazy for no reason. She also got the nickname of Princess Fox? This is the condition we agreed on at the beginning. The copyright belongs to me and the distribution belongs to Fox. That little girl is like a little hamster. She wants to pull everything into her nest."

Karta laughed: "It's natural, she is the daughter of the Murdoch family after all."

Jennifer Connery left after finishing the so-called dubbing of "Anti-Condor" in the morning. Because it was not yet time to get off work, Eric did not return to Joanna's villa directly, but went to Burbank and handled some official duties in the office. He left at get off work.

The next day, without surprise, a rumor about him and Jennifer Connery appeared in the New York Post. The article was very conscious and did not use the photo of Connery throwing into Eric's arms. It just chose a photo of a girl holding him intimately into the Fox office building. In this case, if the two people are unwilling to admit it, they can forcefully say that they are good friends. It's okay to hold each other's arms, it's up to you or not.

In addition to the title of "Williams' Another Jennifer" is a bit ambiguous, the content of the article is quite restrained, and the past of Eric and Jennifer Aniston was explained in detail, and Jennifer Connery's birth resume was described in detail. As for the relationship between the two, the report also used a completely speculative tone.

After a few brief introductions, the news began to turn to Jennifer Connery's recent "Anti-Fighting Condor". In fact, after a little thought, most people will find that this is a promotional soft article, but the promotional soft article mixed with scandals is a popular subject for readers. Even if many people can see at a glance that the news is not credible, it is still more eye-catching than those fantastic film reviews.

Many movies use this method when promoting, but most of them use scandals between male and female protagonists. But this time, "Anti-Condor" uses scandals between the heroine and Hollywood's hot young director Eric Williams for hype.

As for the male lead in "Anti-Condor", Charlie Sheen, although she was barely considered a first-line male star because she participated in "The Field Platoon" a few years ago, her influence with Eric is still far from comparable.

Although Charlie Sheen is also a famous Hollywood playboy, if he uses his scandal with the heroine, it will definitely attract considerable attention, considering the relationship between Connery and Eric, even if someone proposes it, the publisher will not risk angering Eric. After all, Eric's current identity is not just a director, let alone Jennifer Connery will definitely not cooperate.

Eric didn't care much about this report. However, after seeing it, several women called to test it. Since breaking up with Aniston, Eric has not confirmed his official girlfriend. Of course, it is impossible for several women to have no idea, but Eric has been perfunctory about this kind of test, and he has no such idea at all. (To be continued.) xh118
