pocket. 谈判的进程非常不顺利,瑞恩的胃口有些大,他想从这块超级大蛋糕中,切下大大的一块,塞进自己的衣兜里。 The global film company aspect is not a fool, they plan to imitate Disney in " Lion King » on approach, by the former author and screenwriter and other identities, enjoys the box office as well as follow-up peripheral share of movie. 环球影业方面也不是傻子,他们打算效仿迪士尼在《狮子王》上的做法,以原作者和编剧等多重身份,享受电影的票房以及后续的周边分成。 If he is willing to invest in 10 million US

global film company cooperates, but did not mind that with other large-scale film company cooperation, after all, " Jurassic Park » copyright, 100% grasps in his hands, so long as he does not nod, no one has the means. 握有绝对的主动,瑞恩一点都不着急,虽然他倾向与环球影业合作,但也不介意与其他大型电影公司合作,毕竟,《侏罗纪公园》的版权,百分之百握在他自己手中,只要他不点头,谁也没有办法。 Naturally, he temporarily has not given up with the opportunity of global film company cooperation, in his opinion, global film company will make the concession finally. 当然,他暂时还没有放弃与环球影业合作的机会,在他看来,环球影业最终会做出让步。 In qualifications' second old company as seven big film companies, the global

作为七大电影公司中资历第二老的公司,环球影业近况不佳,连续几年没有推出强有力的作品,再不展开自救,就要堕落成米高梅和索尼哥伦比亚影业了。 MGM and Sony film company besides the huge database, the former has been eating 007 series of initial capitals, after the latter the Japanese purchases, but also without doing to understand how US Entertainment Market should play, is not breaking diplomatic relation the school expense. 要知道,米高梅和索尼影业除了庞大的片库外,前者一直在吃007系列的老本,后者被日本人收购后,还没搞明白美国娱乐市场到底该怎么玩,正在不断交着学费。 Global film company at previous generation's turnaround, is «Jurassic Park» and «Schindler's List», the former attained about 1 billion US dollars global box offices, in a complete mess of various week rim-fires, the latter caused the huge echo, becomes the big winner of Oscar. 环球影业在前世的翻身仗,正是《侏罗纪公园》和《辛德勒的名单》,前者拿到了近10亿美元的全球票房,各种周边火的一塌糊涂,后者则产生了巨大反响,成为奥斯卡的大赢家。 The person who ordered to terminate the negotiations was the global film company master, president Shinn Shane Bergh of US music, his unusual disaffection, wants, to tell that child in this manner, who is having this negotiations initiative. 下令终止谈判的人是环球影业的东家,美国音乐的总裁西恩・谢恩伯格,他非常的不满,想用这种方式,告诉那个毛孩子,谁才掌握着这次谈判的主动权。 However,

sold one after another greatly, gradually established him in the position of Hollywood in this circle, in the eye of each film company, his work was the guarantee of box office. 然而,瑞恩?詹金斯不是一年前的那个男孩了,也不再是汤姆?克鲁斯随随便便就可以在公众场合质疑的小童星了,随着今年《西雅图夜未眠》《终结者二》《保镖》的接连大卖,逐渐确立了他在好莱坞在这个圈子内的地位,在各个电影公司的眼中,他的作品就是票房的保证。 „Lets out the news, many compete with us to sell a good price.” After breakdown of negotiation, Ryan once said to Kingsley. “将消息放出去,多家竞争我们才能卖出个好价钱。”谈判破裂后,瑞恩曾经对金丝莉这么说。 Therefore, on the same day of breakdown of negotiation, the news passed on, the cinema world is
