Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

Pretending to be pale, Kevin's tone was slightly displeased and said:

"You guys are too insincere to say that."

"Do you think those tens of thousands of movies are worth so much money?"

"When you were just chatting, didn't you say that in terms of your company's output, you can produce hundreds of movies a day?"

Humpty Griffin looked embarrassed.

He didn't expect that when he chatted just now, he revealed his details.

Now it's not good to be round.

But anyway, he is also a battle-hardened company owner.

Faced with this dilemma, he quickly adjusted himself to the appearance of not changing color.

His face was not red and his heart did not jump:

"I can't say that, even if it is hundreds of them a day, it is not the reason why they are not valuable."

"The actresses and others have also put in the effort, and the sale is too cheap, I can't go back and confess."

That being said, Griffin knew in his heart that it wasn't worth much in the first place.

It's just some men and women sleeping in content.

Except for a few particularly popular actresses' films that sell better, other old movies have long been out of sales.

Now being able to sell some money, for them, is also pure earnings.

You know, their company's annual profit is just that.

After removing all labor costs, taxes, and profits, it looks like 40 to 50 million dollars.

And earnings are falling.

These things that have long been useless, to be able to sell a little, is pure earning.

The words that come out of his mouth are nothing more than bargaining.

Kevin gritted his teeth, looked very entangled, and suddenly said:

"This price is not impossible, but if you want to buy more movies, I don't know if you can help me contact other film companies."

"If other studios are willing to sell it relatively cheaply, then I will take your inventory for ten million dollars."

Griffin nodded and readily agreed.

He doesn't care about the prices of other studios.

Being able to use these useless inventory to directly obtain the copyright of Pirates of the Caribbean 18 is a very profitable deal.

In fact, these films, because of the lack of technical content.

As a result, more and more film companies have been established in the San Fernando Valley, and the number of these films is simply increasing geometrically.

For them, movie resources are not important.

A beloved actress is the most important thing.

These stocks are nothing more than garbage.

As long as he releases a movie in the San Fernando Valley that someone buys the stock, it is estimated that everyone else will sell it at a burger price.

After the two sides reached an agreement, the three left Sunrise Movies and returned to the San Fernando Valley to help Kevin acquire these old movies.

....

Fast forward to three days later.

In the past three days, the box office of the upper part of Batman's Dark Knight has slowly fallen in a very even trend.

During this period, the biggest enemies of Batman's Dark Knight are the movie Ghost Horse Elf produced by Universal Pictures and the Red Tide Storm produced by Brook Vista.

There is also a movie that Kevin is very familiar with.

Braveheart, who won the 1996 Academy Award for Best Film.

These three films, plus Kevin's Dark Knight, swept the summer schedule from May to June.

However, relying on the influence brought by the huge IP of Batman, Kevin successfully dominated this summer slot

In the box office, Batman's Dark Knight is far ahead with a total box office of $130 million and a single-day box office of more than 10 million.

And the ghost horse elf, relying on its powerful family nature, followed closely with a total box office of 70 million US dollars, and a box office of 10 million US dollars a single day.

Below are the two movies of Red Tide Storm and Braveheart.

The single-day box office is more than nine million US dollars.

The media, under Warner's signal, once again launched praise for Batman's Dark Knight.

"Director Steve Kevin, once again through the box office, proved to everyone his identity as a big Hollywood director."

"From 1992's Chainsaw to 1995's The Dark Knight, the saga directed by Steve Kevin has just begun."

"He features comedy superstar Jim Carrey as the villain and an ordinary male star as the male lead, defeating the movie Braveheart directed and starred by big star Mel Gibson, and the red tide storm directed by Tony Scott."

"He proved with his strength that he has the same strong directing ability as Spielberg...

...

In the 20th century Fox, Braveheart as a joint vote of Fox and Paramount, and the movie starred by Fox, Mel Gibson stared at the box office news every day in Fox.

At this time, Mel Gibson looked at the news in the newspaper, and the unhappy expression on his face was simply a person.

He is a first-line star in Hollywood and a director.

His position in Hollywood naturally goes without saying.

Few people dare to step on his head.

These media, nakedly comparing him to Steve Kevin, and through the success or failure of a movie, put him below Steve Kevin, a budding director.

This inevitably made him feel very angry.

His temper is also not very good.

In this regard, he immediately contacted the media he was familiar with and commented on the news in the newspaper.

...

Inside Nicholas Kevin's villa.

The three of them were sitting together, chatting while having a barbecue.

Kevin smiled and said while roasting meat:

"Depp, in theory, your salary increase should indeed exceed $5 million."

"But do you know why I'm not willing to pay a little extra for this increase?"

Johnny Depp on the side was obviously a little embarrassed.

Kevin's attitude was condescending, which made him very uncomfortable.

But the lifeblood was in Kevin's hands, and he had to bow his head.

If Kevin does change the cast of the Pirates of the Caribbean protagonist, and he can't come up with a decent work in a year or two.

Then the fate that awaits him, the new superstar, is to fall like a shooting star.

This is also a truth that he figured out in these two days.

Steve Kevin, even if he changes actors, with his ability, he will probably not lose money, but he may earn less.

But if he loses Pirates of the Caribbean, the consequences are completely different.

In such a situation, in fact, he could not do without the pirates of the Caribbean.

Then everything is simple.

He has no room for bargaining at all.

Either accept the price and honestly star in Pirates of the Caribbean, or sit back and watch Steve Kevin change actors.

And he, the superstar, lost his most famous masterpiece.

....

"Because it's the Pirates of the Caribbean who need me, not the Pirates of the Caribbean who need me, I've figured this out."

Kevin nodded, finally Johnny Depp, not stupid to the end.
