Hollywood What If Chapter 254
Tom Rothman had plicated thoughts about so many things. He was happy that 20th tury Fox had the ce to work with Kazir Grey, but he was unhappy that Kazir Grey was w with other petitors. He was also unhappy that Grey Pictures was making massive profits.
A billion dolrs... A very rge amount of money. Even if Grey Pictures could only get 10% of that amount, they were already winning.
Based on the tract that Grey Pictures sighey will probably make around 350 million. It depends ouation, the iional profit distribution is very plicated and it takes months to settle.
Still, it was a huge amount of money.
Suddenly an idea popped into his head.
'... Either Grey Pictures disappears or 20th tury Fox buys it. There's no iween. Grey Pictures needs a solid distributor and a strong wall to rely on, and that's something they ck. Acquiring this pany bring a lot to 20th tury Fox.'
But the big problem was that Kazir Grey owned Grey Pictures. The sole owhey could not buy the stock or i iock, they had to deal directly with Kazir.
And if Kazir was not ied in selling his pany, that would be a problem.
'But just like how Miramax and New Line ema gave in, Grey Pictures never has a ce to go up against the Big Six. That's the truth, and I think Kazir k.' Tom nodded.
If the Big Six made a decision and decided to gang-bang Grey Pictures, then the pany would be run through very badly... Ahem.
Anyway, it would be bad frey Pictures if the big giants of the industry got together and bullied them.
Even DreamWorks was fag a backsh, even though they were w with Universal and Paramount to distribute their films iionally.
The only way frey Pictures to survive was to work under one of the Big Six.
'Kazir is not stupid. He has probably already thought of this...'
Tom Rothman realized that there might be another petition.
'I should ask ma to do some resear Grey Pictures aermis worth.'
Since Wanted had grossed over 1 billion plus the overall performance of CCU, Grey Pictures' worth would probably be over 1.5 billion. The pany had profitable movies to exploit, and it seemed that it had a lot of superhero chts as well.
But Grey Pictures was only founded a few years ago and it had already gained a good reputation. The fact that the pany had 1.5 billion was really amazing.
Suddenly, Tom Rothma bitter. He realized that Kazir might be richer than he was.
'Kazir is low-key rich, damn it.'
Before he could get in touch with ma, his secretary informed him that Gee Lucas had arrived.
LucasFilm was only a produ pany and didn't have the ability to distribute its films like Grey Pictures.
However, LucasFilm was much bigger than a young pany like Grey Pictures. Even though LucasFilm only focused on a few movies such as Star Wars and Indiana Johis pany was far more important than Grey Pictures. The profit that LucasFilm made each year was parable to the Big Six. Especially now that the ar Wars trilogy was underway.
In fact, 20th tury Fox and Walt Disney were trying their best to acquire the pany. Gee Lucas was still biding his time.
Although spoiler alert, the damn woke Disney acquired LucasFilm. The result of this acquisition was plicated. Either Star Wars fans loved it or they hated it. Not gonna lie, Star Wars fans were a little toxibsp;
Tom Rothman agreed a with Gee Lucas. The two greeted each other with resped began to talk business.
"It's unfortuhat Kazir didn't agree. I really hope he will direct Star Wars. With him, I think Star Wars will have a great performance." Gee Lucas sighed.
The subject went to Kazir for reasons unknown.
Tom Rothma his mouth shut, but he agreed. Kazir was super dedicated to his job and the ces of Star Wars getting bigger would be high if he directed it.
Gee Lucas and Kazir Grey had a good retionship after their first meeting. Gee then tried to offer the job to Kazir, but the young director was not sure.
In the end, Kazir decided to make a superhero movie... Nobody khe oute of his decision.
"1 billion box office is something that is very hard to achieve."
Gee admitted, and Tom agreed. Making that amount of money was a miracle.
When there were rumors that Kazir might be the director of Star Wars, Natalie Portman was actually excited and hoped that she would have a ce to work with her crush. Yes, the young actress developed a crush on the director after their first meeting.
Unfortunately, Kazir once again chose to direct a movie about a guy who climbs buildings, shoots webs and fights crime.
It made no seo be ho, Star Wars was a better choice than Spider-Man at that time. Maybe it came down to sary and tract. Because Kazir got a good tract from Sony-bia. His sary alone was 25 million dolrs. you believe that?

...
"gratutions, director!"
"Hey Willem, I should gratute you too. Our movie made it to the top of the box office."
Kazir Grey and Willem Dafoe were having the time of their lives o of Spider-Man.
Willem had a huge role in Wanted and it set his career on a great path. Even though his character died early, it was worth it because the fans started to love him.
"Auditioning for Marcus is the best decision I ever made in my life!"
Now some studios were inviting him to work with them. But of course he had to focus on Spider-Man first. Norman Osborn was an iing character and Willem felt that he could do a good job on the character. Like Kazir, he was dedicated to his art.
The rest of the cast also gratuted them. Tobey Maguire, James Frand Kirsten Dunst. Kirsten even gave Kazir a gift, a wristwatch, which Kazir was surprised to receive but appreciated.
