After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

Building an amusement park seems to be a good choice.

With so many IPs gathered in one amusement park, it's hard not to be popular.

Kevin even had a magical idea, which is to shoot a Wonderful Night in the Amusement Park according to the plot of Wonderful Night at the Museum.

These copyrights are all his, and there is no copyright conflict.

Kevin was even able to invite Johnny Depp, Spider-Man, to comeo in these movies.

This will be a very powerful commercial.

Its core is to help the amusement park attract traffic.

The release of such a movie will attract many tourists to the amusement park. Just thinking about it, Kevin feels that there are countless dollars to be paid.

Of course, the funds needed for amusement parks are huge and need to be developed step by step.

Kevin's first step was to establish a Hogwarts College of Harry Potter, and reproduce some special scenes in Harry Potter one by one.

Then when Harry Potter is released, tourists will be allowed to enter, and the ticket money will be charged back.

Step by step, it belongs to his amusement park.

In the absence of funds, he could only do so.

Afterwards, in a high-end headhunting company, after giving the specific conditions for the high-end talents he needed with experience in operating amusement parks, Kevin turned around and went to MGM.

···

"Rett."

"Boss, you are here."

Leiter, who was handling business in the office, heard someone looking at him, looked up, saw Kevin, and stood up quickly.

Come out from your desk to be greeted.

"sit."

Sit on the sofa in front, let Lei Te sit down by the way, Kevin then said:

"Harry Potter will start filming in three days, is the current studio still in use?"

Rhett shook his head.

"Currently, the studio is not open to the public."

"For personal use only."

"Well, yes, then three days later, the coordinating crew will enter."

"Leave it to us."

Rhett answered straight away.

After briefly dealing with the admission problem, Kevin asked about MGM's animation business.

"Leite, what business is the company currently doing?"

There was a hint of embarrassment on Rhett's face.

Only then did he say:

"Currently, the company's business is basically at a standstill. Apart from Harry Potter, there is only a little animation-related business in progress, but the overall profitability is very average."

"The most important thing is to rely on the licensing income of those classic IPs."

Leiter made it clear that MGM is in an embarrassing situation now.

Chapter 249 Goodbye Nicole Kidman

In the past few years, MGM has not produced a high-end movie. It was originally planned to shoot a 007 spy movie this year.

In view of the presence of Steve Kevin's Harry Potter, this business has not yet started.

To put it bluntly, MGM is living on its laurels right now.

If it weren't for MGM's deep foundation, it would have been unable to support this huge volume, but even so, the annual financial report, except for a little better when working with Kevin, is the same at other times. A miserable look.

Let Leiter, the president, lose face.

That is to say, the credit for discovering the director Kevin, otherwise Leiter would have stepped down a long time ago.

However, Kevin is very clear about the company's situation. He just wanted to know about the animation IP, but he didn't expect to be misunderstood by Leiter.

Of course, it's not a bad idea to hit Leiter a little bit.

"I'm not pursuing these things, I just want to ask you, what are some of the more famous series that MGM currently has."

"Whether it's a movie, an anime, or something else."

Leiter froze for a moment, smiled awkwardly again, got up and took out a document from the cabinet beside him.

Then he came to Kevin and started talking.

"Currently 007, Tom and Jerry, Pink Panther..."

Lei Te mentioned more than ten IPs in a row, but for Kevin, only these three IPs are valuable.

Namely 007, Tom and Jerry, and the Pink Panther.

Among them, in Kevin's vision, 007 can create an agent game in the amusement park and make some special items for playing.

Just like Pirates of the Caribbean can be combined with traditional pirate ship projects.

007 can be made into a role-playing game, allowing young players to act as 007 to rescue their companions.

Of course, these are just basic ideas. Kevin is not a professional in amusement park projects. In this regard, after the professionals he hired are in place, there will be specific designers to design the project.

The three IPs he chose had already been seen many times when he was a child in mainland China.

This fully proves the influence of these IPs.

Looking at Leiter who finished reading the data, Kevin said:

"Leite, you mobilize the company's resources. Next, I ask you to shoot two 007 films every three years to revive the 007 series."

"At the same time, in terms of animation, Tom and Jerry and the Pink Panther have to speed up production, and they cannot be played at the current speed."

"Yes!"

When Kevin gave an order, Leiter was shocked immediately.

MGM without direction is the scariest.

Although Kevin didn't tell clearly how his every step developed, Leiter could imagine that Kevin must have a whole plan in mind.

With the release of Spider-Man, the news that Kevin acquired Marvel has long been hidden.

A series of actions by Kevin were exposed to people.

These film companies have also discovered how much money they can make by building an entire industrial chain.

Prior to this, these film companies have also done these things.

But none of them are as thorough as Kevin.

Starting from comics, to movies, and then to novels and TV series.

Create surroundings.

Including Kevin's Xianxia project, it also started from comics.

This series of operations has greatly inspired other film companies. For this reason, many film companies are studying how to replicate Kevin's operations.

It can be said that the arrival of Kevin brought a wave of attention and development to IP.

Let the IP era come ahead of time.

After instructing MGM on the next development direction, Kevin turned around and left MGM.

···

In a hotel near Beverly Hills.

Kevin is playing poker with Nicole Kidman.

Since the first time, Kevin has never apologized to Tom Cruise.

Anyway, their husbands and wives also play their own games. Only when Kevin hangs Nicole Kidman can Tom Cruise have more fun outside.

Instead of going home and facing Nicole Kidman's stinky face.

No way, as the official husband of Nicole Kidman, although Tom Cruise is a superstar, his status in the circle is not low.

But there is no way to give Nicole Kidman too many good opportunities.

This is the limitation of the star profession.

Even if it is a superstar, it is impossible to rely on this status to get Nicole Kidman a leading actress in a big production.

But as a director, as long as it is some well-known director, it is easy to get a heroine.

After all, a famous director is an important factor in the success of a movie.

Compared with the director, the heroine is actually not important.

Nicole Kidman patiently served the man in front of him, and after the end, Nicole Kidman lay beside him.

On the sidelines:

"Kevin, I've been practicing my skills for a long time. I want to show my skills in the movie earlier. When do you think I have the chance?"

As soon as Nicole Kidman's words came out, Kevin knew what she meant immediately.

"It will take a lot of time for your role to be released. In my new movie, there is a role that seems to be very suitable for you."

"What role?"

Nicole Kidman propped up her upper body with one hand, letting the wonderful spring light lean into Kevin's eyes, and with the other hand, drew circles on Kevin's chest.

The whole person is like a picture of extreme temptation.

asked softly in his mouth.

Nicole Kidman's actions made Kevin interested again.

Kevin pressed Nicole Kidman back and said:

"A magic teacher, what do you think?"

"The heroine?"

"No, an important supporting actress."

"The heroine of this movie is a little girl."

Nicole Kidman, squinting her eyes, frowned slightly while enjoying, and she was expressing her dissatisfaction with the supporting actress to Kevin.

"An important supporting actress in a series that I expect to make at least ten movies, which do you think is more important than a leading actress in a movie directed by other directors?"

Nicole Kidman was a little dizzy under Kevin's movements.

He faltered for a while, and only responded after he regained consciousness a little bit.

"Kevin, you are so kind to me."

At the same time, warmly give back to Kevin.

If it's just an ordinary supporting actress, as Nicole Kidman, I really don't like it.

Although Tom Cruise can't help her get a leading actress in a major production, but supporting actresses are still very simple.

But important supporting actresses like this kind of series tend to become classics.

If an actor has such a popular role, it will have many benefits for his future development.

Chapter 250 Rename

This trip was not in vain.

Nicole Kidman satisfies Kevin more attentively.

At the same time, I am looking forward to the role in Kevin's hand that can make her popular all over the world.
