May 20.

Los Angeles.

Beverly.

Daqin Manor.

"Qin, you are finally willing to leave Caribbean."

Martin paid a visit to Qin Dong the day after he returned to Los Angeles.

It has been more than three months since Martin and Qin Dong last met.

"There's nothing we can do, Martin, the movie has just been finished."

Qin Dong, who was wearing sportswear, poured two glasses of wine with a smile while talking nonsense.

"Haha, this is Qin's movie. The first shooting took four months."

Martin replied with an expression of disbelief.

Anyone who pays attention to movies all over the world doesn't know that Qin Dong usually shoots a movie for two to three months before he is exhausted.

This is the first time the filming lasted more than three months.

Martin didn't believe it at all. He just guessed that Qin Dong deliberately avoided the scandal of the Disney president.

"hehe"

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Of course, Qin Dong also knew that he couldn't hide it from Martin, an old fox, and he didn't bother to explain more.

Conversation between smart people is so simple.

I know you understand what I mean.

I do understand what you mean, and I believe you also understand what I mean.

So everyone laughed at each other and passed.

"There are many small things, but only one big thing."

Of course, Martin is also a person who does not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Hearing this, he smiled and said:

"Jeff, the president of Sony Columbia, couldn't help it anymore and kept urging me to contact you."

"You took too long to shoot this time, which made both Jeff and Columbia very anxious."

"They want to confirm when you will officially film [Venom]."

"Fake."

Qin Dong drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then cursed:

"Fake Jeff."

“Falque Colombia.”

"Grandpa, I just came back. I can't rest for a while."

"Tell them to wait patiently."

Although I understand the thoughts of Sony Columbia and CEO Jeff.

Despite Qin Dong's physical fitness, let alone several months of filming, even if he was filming 365 days a year, he would not be tired.

But so what, Qin Dong was just unhappy.

He is not just a director, he is a collaborator with Sony Columbia.

Everyone is on the same level, so why should we care about each other's face?

"Good scolding."

"hehe."

When Martin heard the scolding, he didn't care. Instead, he echoed the curse and said in a different way:

"Actually, Jeff is under a lot of pressure."

"Columbia's financial statements in recent years have been very unsightly. As president, Jeff is the first person to bear the brunt of this."

"Whether it is Columbia's parent company or outside news media, they will all feel that the primary person responsible for Columbia's poor performance must be the company's president, Jeff."

For the cash cow owned by CAA, for the money-making tool of Tom Cruise.

Martin had to secretly support Jeff, the president of Columbia.

Who asked him to do a lot of things for this? He couldn't succeed so quickly that he suddenly failed.

"Martin"

When Qin Dong heard this, he shouted, and then raised his middle finger to the other party:

"Fake."

Martin laughed, shook his head with a smile, and didn't care.

His reasons can deceive fools.

Naturally, I knew I couldn't deceive the smart man in front of me, but I still had to say what I needed to say.

It was also to let Qin Dong know his thoughts as an agent.

"call"

After taking out his cigar and taking a puff, Qin Dong spoke again:

“I heard that Columbia’s parent company is on a certain island?”

"Tell Jeff."

"I'm very unhappy now. If he doesn't think of a way, just ask him to wait with Colombia during the filming time."

Martin heard this and became thoughtful.

When smart people speak, they don't say many things openly.

Sometimes what you say is a hint, but it actually means what you mean.

On some small island?

Thinking of this local word in Qin Dong's mouth, Martin was thoughtful.

"OK, I promise to bring the message to Jeff."

"random."

Qin Dong waved his hand indifferently:

"By the way, has [Aquaman] been released?"

Because this movie is not produced by Qin Dong Company, I am too lazy to pay attention to it, so I thought of asking at this time.

"Not yet, Warner has decided to release it globally in early June."

"Oh, there's a super movie in May that Warner wants to avoid?"

As soon as he heard this, Qin Dong understood and asked curiously.

Warner is also one of the six major Hollywood companies, and currently, it ranks first and second among the six.

In addition, "Aquaman" is still a movie directed by Qin Dong.

It is this kind of cast lineup that actually made Warner decide to avoid May and release it in June.

Really speaking, from super movies to blockbuster movies, most of the time they choose to be released in May.

"You guessed it right, Qin."

Martin knew that Qin Dong was too lazy to pay attention to many things. He was not surprised that the other party did not know these things. He explained with a smile:

"In early May, [Avengers: Age of Ultron] produced by Disney's Marvel Company was officially released worldwide."

"Warner has decided not to compete with Marvel movies."

"Myself and the people at CAA also agree with Warner's decision."

"Qin, we are not interested. It's not that we are afraid that [Aquaman] will lose the box office, but there is really no need to compete with [Avengers 2]."

"Of course we know that Qin's movies are invincible."

"However, if two tigers compete, the box office will inevitably be lower than originally expected, so"

"Disney announced the release date of Age of Ultron last year, and Warner naturally pushed it to June."

Afraid that Qin would be too preoccupied, Martin explained a few more sentences.

After all, no matter how good Qin Dong is, he is still just a young man under thirty years old.

Young people tend to be young and energetic, unwilling to admit defeat, and don't like to lose face.

"hehe"
