It is undoubtedly a big thing for the outside world that Wald Pictures can complete the distribution of movies in various countries and regions in overseas markets independently and without relying on the six major Hollywood companies!

It broke the monopoly of the six major companies for the distribution channels in the global market!

DreamWorks, Dimen Pictures, Lionsgate, Touchstone Pictures, New Line Pictures... A large number of Hollywood second-tier film companies have been shocked.

"How did he do it?!"

Xie Yi, president of New Line Pictures, sat in the office and was stunned for an hour before returning to his senses.

"Once upon a time, I also had great ambitions and created New Line Pictures with one hand, wanting to become a new hero in Hollywood, breaking the blockade of the six majors in one fell swoop, and possessing a complete global distribution channel, making New Line Pictures comparable to the six major Hollywood companies. The presence!"

"But!"

"But I failed!"

"The six major Hollywood companies are not only powerful in film production, but also in many fields such as television, radio, media, animation, games, peripherals, shopping malls, real estate, and so on."

"They are media giants!"

"Faced with the blockade of the Big Six, I compromised!"

"Faced with the olive branch they throw, I accept it!"

"My New Line Films, in addition to Touchstone Films, Searchlight Entertainment, and Artisan Entertainment, faced the temptation of the six major olive branches and the global distribution market, they also gave up the independent development model and joined the six Under the command of a big company."

"Do I still have the courage to resist?"

"No... no more!"

Xie Yi, president of New Line Pictures, was full of emotion and murmured alone, and his years of hard work also emerged in his mind.

Are the six olive branches so easy to hold?

As long as you accept the "good intentions" of the Big Six, then in terms of profits, it will definitely increase dramatically. At the same time, in the film review committee, publicity channels and other aspects,

They will give strong support, you only need to worry about film and television production.

However... it is a chronic poison that eats bone and sucks marrow!

In the process of accepting the six "good intentions", your ambition and your company's shares will be swallowed up bit by bit by the six companies. After a few years, you definitely won't have any bones left.

When capital comes to the world, it is destined to bleed and eat people!

Looking at the current stage of Hollywood, excluding the six major companies, only three film and television companies, Wald Pictures, DreamWorks Group, and Lionsgate Pictures, are still independently preparing to build global distribution channels!

Of course, there are also some third- and fourth-tier Hollywood film companies that have not been included in the Big Six.

It's not that they don't want to, but that the Big Six simply don't look down on them!

......

DreamWorks.

"We are behind!"

Spielberg said solemnly: "Since the establishment of DreamWorks, how high-spirited we have been, attracting the attention of the global market, and being known as the No. 1 film company under the six major Hollywood, however... Now come Look, this is a joke!"

joke?

Spielberg's face was full of bitterness.

David Geffen, one of the three giants of DreamWorks, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "In terms of volume, we are stronger than Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, the parent company of Wald Pictures, but when it comes to the construction of the overseas distribution market , we are really inferior!"

The establishment of overseas distribution channels has always been a pain for DreamWorks!

If you want to open the overseas market, in addition to relying on the six majors, you can only open up the market in overseas countries and regions with a lot of money and a lot of excellent movies.

DreamWorks has no shortage of money;

But a large number of excellent movies, do you mean that there are some?

Even a director as strong as Spielberg can't guarantee that every film he shoots will be excellent.

"Zuck Wald is a freak!"

David Geffen said: "Look at the "Lola Run" that it debuted, and then look at the previous episodes of "Deadly Bend", "Human Removal Plan", "The Sixth Sense", "Memento" , Peppa Pig, SpongeBob SquarePants, and now, My Big Greek Wedding and 300 Spartans..."

"They are all good Hollywood movies!"

"With such a large number of excellent films, the film market in overseas countries and regions is simply left to him!"

"I make a bold prediction... If the two major Hollywood A-level productions of "Spider-Man" and "Harry Potter" are also successful, then there will be any pressure on the establishment of Wald Pictures' global distribution channels? "

For a time, Spielberg and David Geffen were silent.

at the same time.

Katzenberg, who was in DreamWorks Animation, was also quite shocked at the moment.

"With such a strong financial backing, Zhu Ke has a large number of successful films. Maybe he can really have a complete global distribution channel?"

Katzenberg's mind became alive.

He hadn't forgotten what Zucker had said to him in the cafe a few months ago.

‘Give me two years and I will have a complete global distribution channel, and then you can try to distribute DreamWorks animations to us at Wald Pictures. ’

At the time, Katzenberg was somewhat dismissive.

However, with the success of "My Big Greek Wedding" and "Spartan 300 Warriors" in overseas markets, Katzenberg can't help but believe it!

Zhu Ke has the strength and ideas to break the six monopoly of the global distribution market!

......

Compared with the active minds of the top executives of DreamWorks, other small and medium-sized film companies are full of surprises.

"Our films can also be shown overseas!"

"Yes, instead of selling the rights to the Big Six at a very low price, it's better to talk to Wald Pictures."

"Our film rights are sold to the Big Six, and they are sold to Wald Pictures. At the same time, Wald Pictures, as an emerging film company, has a much more sincere offer than the Big Six."

In just a few days, the threshold of Wald Pictures has been broken by many small and medium-sized film companies in Hollywood.

They are all looking to distribute their films overseas!

Having overseas distribution channels and having no overseas distribution channels have completely different meanings.

Wald Pictures can now fully afford to be different from what it used to be!

However... Bill McNick ruthlessly rejected them!

"Better lack than abuse!"

Old Bill said to Zucker: "Our overseas distribution channels are not yet solid, and rashly releasing a large number of movies is bound to be mixed. It may bring us huge profits in the short term, but in the long run, it will greatly damage our overseas distribution. channel formation.”

In a word, your movie can be released overseas through us, but the premise is that your movie is good enough!

"I agree." Zucker said.

In this case, Zucker really came across a good enough movie!

- "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!
