    Ovitz heard that Eisner came to Leete angrily and was worried that the two would have a big fight, so he quickly set off and rushed over.  Arriving at the door of Li Te's office, Ovitz saw Fury confronting Eisner's assistant coldly, not noticing his arrival at all, so he coughed.  "What are you two doing?" When Fury saw Ovitz coming, he hurriedly stood up straight. Eisner's assistant, who had worked next to Eisner when Ovitz was still the president of Disney, was not interested in Ovitz.  Of course, Ovitz was no stranger to him, so he quickly said hello to Ovitz like Fury.  Ovitz ignored Eisner's assistant, looked at Fury and asked, "Eisner went in?" Fury nodded honestly, mentally prepared to be scolded by Ovitz, but  Unexpectedly, Ovitz just clicked his tongue and let out a light sigh.  "It's strange that these two people didn't quarrel?" When Fury and Eisner's assistants heard Ovitz's soliloquy, one of them stared at the ceiling and the other at his feet, pretending to have a tacit understanding.  Tsukuru heard nothing.  "Mr. Ovitz, do you want to go in?" Fury reached out to open the door, but was stopped by Ovitz.  "Forget it, let the two of them talk." After saying that, Ovitz left, leaving only Fury and Eisner's assistant looking at each other at the door.  In the office, Li Te and Eisner stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and neither of them spoke.  After several minutes of stalemate, Eisner finally couldn't help but speak.  "This is absolutely not possible. I will never agree to give "The Mummy" to Universal Company!" "If we don't give it to Universal Company, Disney can't make this movie, unless you want to litigate!" Eisner simply wants to  He was so angry that no one had ever dared to contradict him like this.  "Who do you think you are? Why do you come to talk to me about this matter? Have you become the spokesperson of Universal?" "It seems that Sommers really didn't tell you anything." Li Te said with some pity.  He glanced at Eisner and said, "Sommers has agreed to join AMG yesterday and has entrusted us with the full authority to represent the movie "The Mummy". Do you feel qualified to talk to you about this now?" "  I understand, this is a conspiracy between you and Universal! You want to join forces to deal with me, but I will not let you succeed!" Eisner yelled with some sternness.  "If you think so, then there really is nothing left to talk about between us." Li Te picked up the script again, looking like he didn't want to talk to Eisner anymore.  Eisner finally became discouraged. He knew that he had no advantage at all in this matter, so he could only compromise with Li Te.  "Then I should hand over "The Mummy" to Universal for nothing?" Seeing Eisner's tone softening, Li Te put down the script in his hand and said, "Maybe you can jointly produce this movie, and the copyright belongs to Universal.  Disney has the right to use the product copyrights surrounding "The Mummy". For example, you can move the monsters in this movie into Disneyland. Of course, you two can sit down and discuss how to cooperate. " Eisner is quite interested in this.  He was moved, but he refused to let go.  "What makes you think that Universal will accept cooperation with Disney? You just said that they own the original copyright of "The Mummy", and they can completely leave us alone." "Although the story idea of ??"The Mummy" was not Sommers'  It's original, but he wrote the script, and he's already done it with the Writers Guild. If Universal does that, Sommers can sue them. I don't think Ron Meyer is that stupid yet.  Both Disney and Universal have concerns about filming this movie alone, so cooperation is the only solution. " "Okay, I admit that what you said makes sense, but don't you think Disney is suffering too much in this matter.  Originally, this script was given to us, but now it has to be shared with Universal, which means that all the time and energy we put into this movie have been wasted. " Li Te rolled his eyes at Eisner and said.  It's none of my business, but when I think about it, Sommers does have a good relationship with Disney. From a customer perspective, he has to help Sommers thoroughly understand this matter.  "Actually, I don't need to take care of this matter. Your Disney affairs have nothing to do with me. But since Mr. Eisner came to you personally and your attitude is sosincere, I might consider giving it to you.  A suggestion." When Eisner heard the word "sincerity", the bruise on his forehead couldn't help but beat, but in the end??I still held back.  "Please tell me!" These two words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth.  "Our company amg not only provides agency services for actors and directors, but also signed several writers, including a British female writer who recently published a novel called "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"  "This novel is now on the New York Times bestseller list. The most important thing is that it is a children's book." Eisner had no interest in the novel Li Te mentioned at first, but  After hearing the last sentence, he suddenly thought of something.  "You mean, you want to adapt this novel into a movie?" "We are responsible for representing the film adaptation rights of this novel. If Mr. Eisner is interested, we can discuss it in further detail." "This is what you gave me.  "Compensation?" Eisner sneered, "Using Disney's resources to promote this novel is your real purpose, right?" "Yes, I don't deny that I have such thoughts, but I also have to remind you.  Mr. Eisner, whether it is a novel or a movie, no matter how well it is promoted, what really determines its popularity is its content, and the "Harry Potter" series is definitely a work worthy of Disney's vigorous promotion."  "All novel authors' agents say this when they come to lobby us. Your argument is not convincing to me." "Since this is the case, then I have nothing to say. I only hope that Mr. Eisner  Don¡¯t regret it in the future.¡± Li Te smiled lightly and didn¡¯t care about Eisner¡¯s rejection.  After the matter was not settled, Eisner felt that there was no need to stay in Li Te's office, and he didn't even say hello to Li Te when he left.  Similarly, Li Te had no intention of sending Eisner as a gift.  Less than half a minute later, Fury walked into the office.  "Mr. Eisner has left, but he looked a little unhappy when he went out." Lit nodded, indicating to Fury that he knew about this.  Li Te didn¡¯t care about Eisner¡¯s mood, because Li Te knew that on the movie ¡°The Mummy¡±, Eisner would be the one to compromise in the end.  The only pity is that Eisner is not interested in "Harry Potter". In Li Te's opinion, among the major Hollywood film companies, Disney is the most suitable to make this movie, because the novel itself is a children's book.  Disney also focuses on the children's film market, so cooperation between the two should complement each other and maximize profits.  After all, "Harry Potter" makes money not only from novels and movies, but also from various peripheral products, and Disney has rich experience and channel advantages in this regard.  It's not that Eisner has no vision, but "Harry Potter" hasn't really become a big hit yet, so Eisner refused Li Te's invitation to cooperate. And the reason why Li Te wanted to cooperate with Disney is actually  I also wanted to use Disney's publicity resources to make the novel popular in advance, but it was a pity that the two could not reach an agreement.  While Li Te was regretting this incident, Eisner, who had already got in the car and returned to Disney headquarters, was also thinking about it.  Eisner knew very well that Li Te would not recommend a novel to him for no reason, and from the tone of Li Te's words, it could be said that he was full of confidence in this novel, so he did not appear to be in a hurry.  Thinking of this, Eisner suddenly felt that his decision just now was indeed too hasty. He should read the novel first, and then let the relevant departments of the company evaluate it before making a decision.  "Sam, when you go back, go find the novel "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" immediately. Remember to prepare a few more copies. In addition to what I need, send some to the marketing department and tell them that in three days  I want to see their evaluation report on this novel.¡± After making this decision, Eisner suddenly felt relaxed.  ¡ª¡ª- Asking for a monthly ticket!
