World-class directors in the entertainment industry

Chapter 168 Wayne Company [Fourth update]

The Weinstein Company.

President's Office.

"BOSS..."

A white girl in her twenties knocked on the office door, opened the door and walked in. Looking behind the desk, a fat pig-like white man in his fifties reported:

"Mr. Matthew Quick, the author of [Get Out of My Way, Let Me Embrace Happiness] has sent a lawyer to the company."

The man with a sinister face was Harvey, the founder of the Weinstein Company. Hearing this, he frowned:

"What are you here for?"

"Remove the film and television adaptation rights of novels signed with our company."

"Oh..."

Harvey sneered, his face looking very gloomy and terrifying at this moment:

"Cancel the contract? Ask him if he has prepared liquidated damages."

The secretary was very afraid of the president and finished quickly:

"BOSS, Matthew's lawyer has already brought a check. He just came to sign the termination contract. The liquidated damages are ready, and he has no intention of negotiating. He only needs our company's signature."

Harvey was stunned, and anger flashed across his face. After thinking for a while, he took out his cell phone, took out a book from the drawer and flipped through it. He found Matthew Quick's phone number in it and dialed:

"Matthew, this is Harvey, and I want to know what you mean by sending a lawyer to the Weinstein Company with a check?"

"Haha... you can lift it if you say it is lifted. Do you believe that I will prevent your future books from being published?"

"What? Who? CAA? Martin?"

"Okay, okay, okay."

Harvey sneered a few times and hung up the phone at the end, panting heavily with a beer belly and a furious look on his face.

No wonder this young author dared to break the contract. Harvey finally understood what was going on.

Matthew Quick was just a small writer, a teacher a few years ago, and then he suddenly came up with the idea of ​​writing, and he was not famous yet, but Harvey liked this, finding food from garbage, which was easy to get at a low price.

This time, I spent US$50,000 to win the film and television adaptation rights of the novel "Get Out of My Way, Let Me Embrace Happiness" from Matthew, with a liquidated damages of 30 times, US$1.5 million.

There are a lot of these street writers here, and 50,000 US dollars is a lot, which is enough to make these street writers happily sign the contract.

"Fake Martin, Fake, you dare to snatch food from my mouth."

Harvey couldn't help but get angry. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but curse loudly.

"Come here and kneel down."

Seeing a secretary in the room, Harvey shouted loudly.

The white secretary trembled, but she didn't dare not go. She knew that she would be tortured again next. This disgusting man liked to torture her every time he was unhappy, but she didn't dare not go.

She doesn't want to do this job, there are some bitches who do it.

I had no choice but to walk over and kneel in front of this old man who looked hateful and was even more disgusting in private, stretched out his hands...

"call..."

Harvey took a handful of the secretary's hair, pressed it hard, and then closed his eyes and thought about what was going on.

...

CAA Corporation.

"Dingling bell..."

Martin saw the landline ringing and picked it up casually:

"Which one?"

"I, Harvey, Martin, you are not doing things right. I have bought the copyright of Matthew Quick's book. What do you mean? Let him break the contract. Do you want to start a war with me?"

Hearing the words spoken on the other side, Martin immediately understood and spoke calmly, not caring at all about Harvey's tone:

"Oh, this thing, Harvey, you can buy it, do you think we at CAA can't afford it? If you want, just increase the price and offer someone a 50,000 yuan copyright contract. Only you, Harvey, can do this kind of thing

, people who don’t know think they are sending away homeless people.”

"Farke, Martin, are you determined to go to war with the Weinstein Company?"

The dirty words on the other side of the phone made Martin's face suddenly turn cold:

"Start a war? Oh, Harvey, who are you talking to? Is it because Dini ignores you and you think you can run wild and don't know who you are? Come on, say it again, you want to talk to CAA

War? I'll let you say it again."

They are all gangsters in the industry, no one knows who is who, Harvey or Martin Mengqing.

Let’s not talk about the bad things the other party did in private, let’s talk about the company. Although the Weinstein Company has a status among independent films, it’s a pity that this kind of art film can only compete for awards and hope to make money. It all depends on the offline discovery of discs.

It took a long time to get back the money.

Don't worry about the outside world bragging about Harvey, but once it gets serious, these large brokerage companies, let alone the Big Six, don't want to dump him. At this time, Martin was not polite at all, and asked directly in a cold voice, waiting for the other party to tell him.

He goes to war.

This fat pig-like fool, after the company was acquired by Dini, he was also asked to take charge of the subsidiary's affairs. However, Harvey was not satisfied and refused to give in. He stirred up troubles in private and was directly kicked out by Dini. Later, Harvey

He and his brother founded the Weinstein Company.

And he often scolded Dini in front of the media for burning bridges. Unfortunately, as one of the Big Six, Dini didn't dump him at all and treated him like a fly. If it weren't for the development of the circle, Harvey would have done it long ago.

You can put him in jail.

"Okay, Martin, you can do it."

Harvey on the other end of the phone was silent. Finally, he said this and hung up the phone.

"Ignorant idiots who really think they have a good relationship with the Oscar gang will do whatever they want. That's because we don't care about these superficial things. If it weren't for maintaining Hollywood's global influence, idiots like you should have been let go long ago.

You're in jail."

Martin looked at the opposite person and gave in. He put down the phone and complained coldly and disdainfully.

...

"Farke, Martin, I'm Farke your whole family."

Harvey was so angry that he swept everything on the table to the ground.

Harvey, who often made unbridled remarks about others, was now angered by Martin's merciless words.

It's a pity that he gave up just now. He can usually run wild because the big shots don't care about him and don't want to get involved with a troublemaker like him to cause trouble. But people like Harvey Menqing are not afraid of him, but they are too lazy to pay attention to him.

But if he really wants to go to war with CAA, Harvey doesn't have the confidence and doesn't dare.

His company only specializes in the field of literary films. Once it falls out with CAA, such a large agency will not say that it has many artists, but that it has connections all over Hollywood. Once he sees a movie, the other party will help set up contacts with other companies, even the six major companies.

, then he can only eat farts.

"Farke, Farke, Farke..."

Harvey walked back and forth angrily. Although he was timid, he was unwilling to give in. After walking for a few minutes, he thought of a way to vent his anger and planned to take a roundabout way.

"Fuck Martin, I don't dare to go to war with CAA. I want to see who will star in the rights you bought. I want to see if the actors dare to go to war with me and Harvey."

Thinking of this, Harvey took out his mobile phone and made a few calls.

There are no private matters in the industry, not to mention that CAA is very big and is already vaguely the largest agency in the world. It has too many agents. Harvey's relationship is still useful. After a few phone calls, I immediately understood some things.

.

"Very good. A mere yellow-skinned monkey dares to snatch food from my mouth. A mere 20-year-old newcomer, Jennifer. Let me see if you, a bitch, dare to disobey me."
