Superstar

It can be said that Kevin Pence and Rick Rosen have their own plans.

It has been less than a year since Kevin took over Twentieth Century Fox. He is obviously ambitious about the company's next plans.

Kevin’s plan for Twentieth Century Fox is obviously a company secret, but it is certain that he has included Endeavour Elite Brokerage and DreamWorks in the development plan. Therefore, regardless of the Hugo factor, the 20th Century The cooperation between Fox and Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company was originally planned by Kevin. Even if he can't reach a cooperation with Hugo, in the long run, Kevin has put his bet on the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.

Of course, reaching a cooperation with Hugo is also a part of Kevin’s plan, and it is also a very important part. On the one hand, it will further promote their cooperative relationship with Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company; on the other hand, it will be a reward of 20 million pieces. It is planned that if the 20th Century Fox can successfully break the existing constraints and take Hugo’s first 20 million US dollars work, whether this work is successful or not, it will be recorded in the annals of history-of course, from the standpoint of a businessman That said, it is better to succeed.

There are many reasons for choosing this work directed by Roland Emmerich. One is because the subject matter of this work is indeed worthy of a fuss. It is completely the most typical Hollywood commercial film genre; the other is because The original planned cost of the work was only 70 million U.S. dollars. In other words, there is still enough room for increase for Kevin to implement the "20 million U.S. dollars" remuneration plan. If you change to a work that costs more than 100 million U.S. dollars , It is estimated that Kevin himself must re-evaluate the risk.

There is another important reason. Hugo first filmed "Seven Deadly Sins" and then "Death Row", and then took a rest for a while due to the sequelae of the filming. Kevin originally had multiple alternate projects that were eliminated due to time constraints. Now, among the remaining projects, this work is the most suitable. Therefore, Kai Wenming knew that the script was not convincing enough, but still gritted his teeth and made a decision.

Of course, Hugo is still the biggest uncertain factor in this link, so Kevin slowly figured it out, knocked on the side, pushed forward layer by layer, and those seemingly useless actions all accumulated thrust little by little and promoted the ultimate goal. To reach.

From the standpoint of the CEO of Twentieth Century Fox, Kevin's choice of "Independence Day" can be said to be the final decision. What about Rick?

Human relations is one of the compulsory topics for brokerage companies. The long-term friendly relations between Fox and Endeavour's elite brokerage companies in the 20th century are bound to put Rick under pressure on human relations. Moreover, Kevin is willing to offer a remuneration of 20 million, which is a win-win proposal for Rick as an agent. Rick has no reason to refuse. Therefore, Rick can stand on Kevin's side and help Kevin persuade Hugo to take this project.

Having said that, I can never forget one thing. The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. Profit is the eternal theme. In the shopping mall, even fathers and sons will meet each other, let alone friends. Besides, Rick and Kevin are not friends, just a strategic cooperation. Rick naturally has his own calculations.

Rick certainly hopes that Hugo will be able to take over a 20 million US dollar work. This is a good thing for him personally. The broker’s success is enough to buy an apartment; at the same time, it is also good for Endeavour's elite agency. Infinite wavelength-the world’s first actor with a salary of 20 million US dollars is in this company. This is a fatal attraction for any actor: because it proves that Endeavour’s elite agency has enough ability to The actors strive for better returns.

But Rick clearly knows that if it is for a 20 million work, it will destroy the cooperative relationship between him and Hugo. This is definitely not worth the gain. The combined value of fifty second-line actors is not as high as that of a Hugo now. This account is very clear in his mind.

Therefore, Rick will try to persuade Hugo, but he will definitely not be on the same front with Kevin. He is always Hugo's ally.

But, but! If Hugo is willing to nod his head to take this work, Rick will naturally have his plan. Not only does he want to have the world's first actor with a salary of 20 million, but he also wants the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company to take this opportunity to make it even better. Floor, like an innovative artist brokerage company, packs its own artists into the same project, so that they also have the privileges enjoyed by the three major Hollywood brokerage companies.

Rick deeply knows Kevin’s desire for Hugo, and in turn, Rick also knows that Kevin still hopes to maintain a good cooperative relationship with Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company-even if Hugo’s project has not reached a cooperation, so, in Ke can use Kevin’s idea to become a bargaining chip, making this project the first packaged cooperation project since the establishment of Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.

This is also limitless for the future development of Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.

"Independence Day" is an opportunity for Kevin, but isn't it for Rick? Hollywood is indeed beginning to wind up, and Rick's previous guess is indeed correct.

However, Rick still maintained his sanity, absolute sanity in the face of huge interests. This was the important reason why he won the Hugo brokerage contract. He forced himself to control his emotions, took a few deep breaths, and then looked at the rain. Guo, "Of course, the premise is that you are willing to take this script."

Hugo couldn't help smiling as he watched Rick's expression change from extreme excitement to forced calmness.

Hugo naturally didn’t know the calculations of Kevin and Rick, and he didn’t know that Rick had already thought so much in the short ten seconds just now, because they didn’t just think from the standpoint of the company, but also stood there. Consider the overall situation from the perspective of the future, and even consider the plans for the next two or three years. Hugo is just an actor, a pure actor. He still doesn't know enough about these situations. This is his shortcomings, but it is also an advantage-at least he can focus purely on his own work and then focus on his professional work. Give it to Rick, Henry, Joseph, and Samora.

"So, you are serious? If I reject this script, you are willing to accept my decision?" Hugo looked at Rick with a smile and a smile. Although he didn't know what Rick was thinking, he also knew that the work was important to him. Both Kevin and Rick are very important, otherwise Kevin will not start planning half a year ago, otherwise Rick will not lose his stance in front of him.

Rick knew that Hugo was joking with himself, and he has gradually become familiar with Hugo, but Rick seriously replied, "Of course, I mean it. Hugo, you are a guy with a keen sense of smell, you The vision of choosing scripts is much more vicious than my agent, so I don’t want to interfere with your decision. What I can do now is to plan your career in the general direction, and then give you my professional advice. That's it. That's it."

"Your opinion now is that I should indeed take a major production movie." Hugo still has a smile on his face, chuckling slightly on his chin, as if he is thinking.

"Yes." Rick said plainly, "Even if it's not the 20th Century Fox project, even if it's not a 20 million piece of pay, it's true."

Of course, Hugo can still continue to shoot independent small productions, which is undesirable for many production companies. But over time, Hugo took the pay of the third-line actor as a superstar, and his colleagues would hardly have a good face, but if Hugo continues to succeed, they have no way to refute it, and they can only be true friends around Hugo. It’s less and less; what’s even more frightening is that Hugo’s future development line will be limited to this small space and can achieve great success, but if it is to be on the stage of a higher class, the possibility will be Getting smaller and smaller.

Rick did not explain these details to Hugo, because he knew that Hugo was a wise man. If he was willing to nod, even without these explanations, he would gladly accept it; on the contrary, if he didn’t want this, even if there were more reasons. , It is difficult to change Hugo's decision.

Hugo still believes in Rick's professional advice very much. Before that, although the scripts of "Before Sunrise", "Seven Deadly Sins", and "Death Row" were Hugo's decisions, Rick also supported them. The reason why brokers are distinguished from assistants is that the overall view of the broker's career planning is always professional skills, not everyone has. And Rick is a very good agent.

So does Hugo really want to take over "Independence Day"?

Prior to this, Hugo had passed by several major production films, including failed works such as "Future Water World" and "Cut Throat Island", but also "Mission Impossible" and "007 Golden Eye". There are various reasons for such successful works as "Break into Death Island", "Tornado", and the scripting reason is only one of them.

In fact, Hugo is very willing to star in "Mission Impossible" ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and he has also mentioned before that the reason why "Future Water World" failed is because of the failure of rhythm control and climax preparation. This is a fatal injury for commercial films, and "Independence Day" undoubtedly has no such worries. Roland's sculptures of rhythm and climax can be regarded as masters.

Hugo’s only real commercial movie "Life and Death Speed" is also a leader. The interlocking rhythm and climax of the advancement of the layers are amazing. Although the script of "Independence Day" is weak, the overall quality It is also enough to compare with "Life and Death Hour", and even because of Roland's bold breakthrough depiction of aliens, "Independence Day" has a position in film history that is half a stature higher than "Life and Death Hour."

Hugo was silent for a while, and went through the acting test of "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death Row". Maybe he relaxes a little bit. He doesn't need to consider his acting skills. It is a good choice to simply devote himself to the role. And Hugo remembers that the humor of the "Independence Day" actor has also left a deep impression on people. Maybe it is a good idea to challenge to see "suspected comedy".

However, Hugo still needs to think about it more carefully. He raised his head and looked at Rick with a smile, "In that case, why don't you read the script?"

Hearing this, Rick knew that Hugo had agreed halfway, which made Rick's face again show a happy smile.
