2023 in crisis

Lanley can understand Arthur and Andre’s considerations. Matthew’s ability is unquestionable. At the same time, he is also their most trusted friend. If Matthew can come over to serve as the leader of the legal department of Sisyphus Films, this is undoubtedly the most perfect solution.

But Renli refused.

The reason why Matthew is Matthew is because he can shine brightly when he stands in court to start the court, just like Renly standing in front of the camera and on the stage. They all have their own dreams and support each other in different ways without hesitation.

Lan Li knew that as long as he spoke, Matthew would nod and agree; but he couldn't and didn't want to.

"I still like the Matthew who stands in the court." Faced with Arthur's still refusal to give up, Lan Li put an end to the simplest sentence.

Arthur raised his hands depressedly, then leaned against the back of the chair with his shoulders down, "I'm your brother, okay? Why don't you support my dream?"

"Aren't you realizing your dream now? Or am I misunderstanding? Then, I tell Andre and let him give you freedom." Lanli said lightly, and then you could see Arthur's expression stiffening little by little, completely without the reserve and restraint of the nobles. This made Lanli shook her head gently, "Elv and you have been in London for so many years, but they still haven't collapsed. I think she is very hard."

Arthur said he received a critical hit of 100,000 points.

Edith, who was watching the show, had a trace of inspiration flashed through his mind and quickly grabbed it, "Did you all forget Charles Domer? Do you remember which direction Charles is focusing on the law?"

Charles Domer, Eaton Domer's brother, ranked second in the Domer family and was also a lawyer. At the beginning, Matthew came to New York to accept Charles' invitation and founded a law firm here. Both of them served as partners and gradually opened up their own careers.

"Charles? Are you sure?" Arthur's all-in-one news immediately showed a meaningful expression. "If you let Charles go to the party, then he is definitely a good player, but if you let Charles go to court, it's better to let him go to the guillotine and execute."

"We don't need Charles to go to court, we need Charles to sit in the office to process copywriting - wait, we don't need Charles to process documents, we need Charles' ability, he can create a law firm in New York and develop to this point, which shows his ability, isn't it? In the lawyer circle, his name should be more useful than you or Andre." Lanley keenly realized the key.

Arthur always regarded Charles as his "like" - party animals, and so did Andre, so they never considered Charles' professional ability, but now thinking about it, maybe Charles is a more suitable candidate than Matthew.

"Even if it's not Charles, I know that Matthew knew a group of lawyers in London, he could give some candidates. You can discuss with Andre and ask Charles for his opinion. I know that Charles is not very reliable, but you should have your own language system between you and Charles, and you can identify the authenticity of it." Renley continued to add.

"Ouch!" Arthur expressed his protest with a cry of pain, but he did not continue to talk nonsense. He nodded and expressed his understanding. "In addition, regarding the Don Quixote channel, the planning and platform framework blueprint have been released, but we really don't have many concepts at the moment. You'd better take a look and give some opinions and ideas. We let the engineer see if it can be realized. Next, we will set up a marketing department to conduct preliminary research to further improve and adjust the platform's design blueprint."

Lan Li nodded in agreement.

"If you have a planner and blueprint, you should just send an entity or send an email..." Arthur didn't understand these details. They were usually handed over to the secretary. "By the way, my secretary said that every time you send an email, you don't reply, which makes it impossible for us to work here to develop. I can't look for Nathan every time, right? God, I contact you, but I have to go through Nathan. This is so sad."

"First of all, that's your secretary and Nathan's contact, not you." Lanley ignored Arthur's "wrongedness". "Secondly, if it's an emergency or important email, you can send it directly to Matthew. My emails are all sorted out by Matthew. If you send it to Matthew, he will tell me the first time."

"Wait, where is Matthew's own job?" Edith couldn't keep up with the speed.

Lan Li shrugged gently, "He has a cleanliness, so I just helped him a little. What's more, my emails didn't have much work, and now all work invitations are sent to Andy and Roy. If you have private emails, it doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter if you don't handle them. If you really matter, you will just look for me, right? It's like this now."

"...Matthew knows you are so shameless?" Arthur asked speechlessly.

"Yes." Lan Li answered with great confidence.

Arthur surrendered, "Okay, okay, I understand. Regarding the Don Quixote Channel, we have asked the engineers and production teams. The fastest progress will be until the beginning of next year. It is estimated that there will be no way to complete the first edition within this year. After that, multiple rounds of internal testing will be modified. The ideal situation will be officially launched in January 2016. If an unexpected situation occurs, the time will be pushed back."

Lan Li nodded, "This is great, it is completely in line with our needs. In the next eighteen months, we can start to find more copyright cooperation. At the same time, we can also shoot more original works of our own. When the channel is online, we only need to list a resource library list to attract audience subscriptions and original works. This is the core method for us to compete with other online streaming media."

"So, what about those movies produced? We filmed and produced, but there was no platform to play. Let's not talk about the protests and dissatisfaction of the production team for now, but what about us? If we cannot recover funds, there will be no way to continue shooting and production. Our funds are not enough to make up for this black hole. Isn't this a problem?" Arthur raised another concern.

Obviously, Andre didn't have time to talk to Arthur in detail about this part. After all, the work of Sisyphus Films and the initial stage of the Don Quixote Channel was too large and too complicated. Everyone rotated quickly like a top, hoping that they could have a clone, but they were still too busy.

This is always the case in the entrepreneurship stage.

"I have discussed this issue with Andre. You can discuss the specific situation with him. Simply put, we are now preparing to cooperate with Sony, but whether we need to establish our own distribution channel is still under discussion for the time being." The whole process is complicated, and Lanli gave the answer in the simplest way. In the future, Arthur and Andre will discuss it in detail.

Arthur immediately understood, "What do you mean is the movie we are making or will it be released in theaters?"

"Yes." Lan Li nodded and affirmed.

Arthur let out a sigh of relief, "That would be better." As long as it is released, box office and surrounding revenue can become subsequent start-up funds to ensure that Sisyphus Pictures can continue to operate and create more profits; otherwise, Hall Venture Capital will not be able to make a profit within 18 months, which is a disaster.

"There are two TV series projects..." Arthur said again, and Lanley immediately remembered the projects he selected, "'Stranger Story' and 'Sin Night'," Arthur nodded and expressed his affirmation. "Now the script of 'Sin Night' has been written, and the script of 'Sin Night' is approaching the final stage, but we are now starting to produce two TV series at the same time, which work do you recommend that you put in first?"

In fact, the real question is: Which work is more likely to be successful? If Sisyphus Pictures' capital chain is broken and it is impossible to produce another work in a short period of time, then the first work will either sell the copyright or be used as a turnaround. No matter which one it is, it must be excellent enough.

There is no way. Now their stalls are too large, and they are moving forward in multiple lines, blooming in all directions, and are booming. They seem to be full of flowers but are actually full of dangers. A slight negligence may lead to a complete collapse. The feeling of walking on thin ice is also a difficult problem that must be faced in the entrepreneurial stage.

Lan Li failed to understand the profound meaning of Arthur's words - he was indeed insincere about running a company. "Which work will be filmed first if it completes casting first."

"I mean, if we need to focus on forcing it, which one should we choose?" Arthur had to express it in a more straightforward way.

Lanley didn't fully understand, but it was still a bit vague. "'Boy of Sin." He gave the answer in a straightforward manner. "The main actors of 'Stranger Things' are all children. It is not easy to choose a child actor who is spiritual and fits the role; in comparison, 'Boy of Sin' requires senior actors with certain skills. Steven Zerian and Richard Pres have known many familiar faces in the industry, and the casting work will go very smoothly."

Arthur savored it carefully, then gently expressed his understanding, "I understand. After returning to Los Angeles, we will hold a meeting. If necessary, I will...I will invite Matthew to browse the meeting minutes." He expressed his strong dissatisfaction at Lanli with a resentful look: they were so busy in Los Angeles that they were not stuck, but Lanli was too lazy to read the meeting minutes.

"Do you believe it? Matthew might hang up the phone directly." Lan Li had no sympathy at all and laughed gloatingly.

Arthur's head was covered in black lines.

Looking at Arthur's melancholy expression, Lan Li chuckled, "I will tell Matthew. However, I think the premise framework has been formulated and my work has been completed. Next is your stage, so I will not compete with you for the focus of attention. What do you think?"
