World-class directors in the entertainment industry

Michigan.

Grand Rapids.

Moss Point High School.

"Hey, boy, get in the car."

Devin Booker walked out of his alma mater in sweat and was about to return home when he heard a woman whistling.

"Me? You are"

He turned around and saw a luxury car parked on the side of the road. The deep anti-photographic glass revealed a gap. He saw a woman wearing sunglasses and waved to him.

Devin Booker looked around, pointed at himself, and asked in confusion and confirmation.

"Yeah. It's you, get in the car, if you're afraid of me."

The girl wearing sunglasses is so excited.

"Come on, come on."

About ten minutes later.

In a villa on the outskirts of this small city.

"Ms. Jenna, you mean that as long as my son Devin signs with your agency, your company will be responsible for Devin's future career as a player, as well as off-court endorsements, and other things? Including entering the NBA and being in the NBA.

Being drafted by an NBA team in the first round? Including starting the team, a shoe contract, etc., right?"

A middle-aged couple looked at the young woman sitting opposite and emphasized for the last time to make sure they were right.

"Mr. Jebuk, I believe that you and your wife have seen my photo in the newspaper. Do you believe that I am not a liar?"

At this time, the girl with sunglasses had already taken off her sunglasses, and it turned out to be Kendall Jenner. At this time, she asked a question with a smile.

"NO, NO, we know you, Ms. Jenner, you are from the Kardashian family in Los Angeles, and of course we will not think you are a liar."

"OK, that's good, it's easy to negotiate. We can initial an agreement. On this year's draft day, Devin, the boy, will definitely be selected by the NBA team in the first round. At that time, we will officially sign the contract."

"Of course, we are not doing charity. Our agency has a lot of connections in the NBA, which is enough for Devin Booker to achieve great achievements in his career."

"Including on the court, players' salaries, various endorsement contracts off the court, and dealing with players' troubles."

"So, our brokerage company's share income is a little higher than that of ordinary brokers."

Half an hour later, Kendall left with an initialed agreement.

NBA rookies, unless they are famous all over the country early, do not need a strong agent.

Otherwise, the rookie contract period is a symbol of the future career of most NBA players.

Seven days later.

June 26.

Big Apple, Brooklyn.

Nets home court: Barclays Center.

"2015 NBA Draft, 10th overall pick in the first round"

"The Oakland Braves' pick is"

"Devin Booker, shooting guard from the University of Kentucky."

"Congratulations."

[Los Angeles Times: With a cost of 60 million U.S. dollars and a box office of 2.6 billion U.S. dollars, Dong Qin deserves the title of the most profitable super director.]

"XX Entertainment Channel reports for you: News about the global film market in June."

"In June, many super blockbuster movies will be released around the world."

“The winner in the end was indeed a mid-budget film, the 60 million-dollar film [Jumanji: Battle in the Jungle].”

"This movie, which cost only 60 million, harvested box office in major markets around the world in June, and actually achieved a total global box office of US$2.6 billion."

"This film is produced by Sony Columbia and directed and written by Hua Xia Qin, the world's youngest and most profitable super director"

"Starring WWE's [The Rock] Dwayne Johnson, [called a once-in-5,000-year-old beauty] Dilmurat Dilraba, [comedian] Kevin Hart, and [veteran drama star] Jack Black

.”

"It suppressed many A-level and super-A-level productions in one fell swoop, sweeping the entire summer vacation in June and achieving surprising results."

early July

San Francisco.

"Barry, what's wrong?"

When Qin Dong took the mobile phone from Zheng Dajun's hand, he looked at it and asked in surprise.

Barry Meyer, the president of Warner, the two are old friends, but Tai Yi has been very busy recently and has not been in contact. I don’t know what the other party wants from him today.

"Oh, dear Qin, have you forgotten [Sea King]?"

"[Aquaman]? Isn't this a matter of your Warner business? Is it a matter of you, the president of Warner?"

Qin Dong didn't understand what the other person meant.

However, in May, I heard Martin say that Warner would avoid Disney's Marvel's "Avengers" and prepare to release it in June.

As a result, Sony Columbia will release "Game of the Brave: Battle in the Jungle" in June, a movie shot by Qin Dong, and Warner has once again changed its schedule.

Qin Dong was busy filming [Venom], so naturally he was too lazy to pay attention.

Anyway, the movie is not produced by his company, as long as it is filmed, I don’t bother to ask about anything else.

"Qin, [Aquaman] will have its world premiere at the Chinese Grand Theater in Los Angeles the day after tomorrow. You are the director, so you have to attend."

"Haha, Barry, Warner Bros. is sure this time? It won't change the schedule again, right? Haha."

"Fake, Qin, it's not our fault at Warner. The box office of "Avengers" in May was 1.3 billion U.S. dollars, and the box office of "Jungle" you filmed in June was more than 1.1 billion dollars. I deeply feel that Warner has made changes.

The decision to block was the right one.”

"OK, OK, Barry, you're so old, don't get excited, okay, are there no blockbusters in July?"

"NO, actually there are some. For example, Paramount's [Terminator 4: Genisys] is scheduled to be released on the same day as our Warner Bros. [Aquaman]."

"Okay, I'll show up on time."

Finally, Qin Dong said this.

This is a movie that I shot myself, so it is my old habit not to promote it, but not attending the world premiere is unjustifiable.

No matter how busy he is, Qin Dong will attend on time.

July 3rd.

Los Angeles.

Beverly.

Daqin Manor.

"Move, move, move, move, click, click."

Late at night in the manor, there was a guest room with the lights still on.

The rhythmic sound lasted for a long time before disappearing.

"Haney, when will [Venom] be finished filming?"

In the quiet bedroom, a few minutes later, a woman's lazy voice came out.

"It's coming soon, the filming will be completed this month."

"call"

Qin Dong was half leaning on the bedside, stroking the back of the woman in his arms with one hand and holding a cigarette in his other hand.

I casually mentioned a date, and then took a leisurely puff of cigarette.

A cigarette after a meal is essential.

"Honey, can you introduce James Wan to me?"

Eva Green, who was lying on the man's chest, hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to speak out.

"Hmm? James Wan?"

"Wan Ziren."

"Hey Eva, why do you want to meet him?"

Qin Dong was stunned and almost didn't expect who this person was.

After thinking about it carefully, I realized that the Chinese named Wen Ziren was captured by Qin Dong early in his life and signed under the banner of Heishui Longqi Company.

"I want to take my career as an actor further."

"It's just that except for Hani's resources, in fact, other resources, although the film contracts introduced to me by CAA are still open, I always feel that the prospects of these film contracts seem to be..."

"As for director James Wan, the third installment of his "Insidious" series of movies was released late last month, and the box office and reputation are both very good."

"Many media and people in the industry have praised him, saying that he is another you who has won high box office with smaller-budget horror films."

"James Wan, I really like filming series of movies."

"Although it is a low-budget horror film, I think a low-budget film with a good box office and good reputation will also be a bonus to my acting career."

Eva Green didn't hide anything at all and expressed her truest thoughts.

This is the reason why [Aquaman] held its world premiere today, and as the heroine of this movie, she would pester Qin Dong to come back with this man after the premiere.

Anyway, you have already paid, so continue to pay to get more benefits.

"That's it"

"I see."

"Since you watch low-budget horror movies, let me introduce you to them."

Qin Dong felt that what the woman said was most likely the truth, so he thought about it and agreed.

Anyway, I don’t want to be a heroine for anyone.

A low-budget horror film is destined to be unable to command a high remuneration.

At most, they will give you a share of the box office profits.
