I’m in Hollywood

Chapter 81: Sincer

Undoubtedly, the biggest benefit of the actor is Julia Roberts. With the continuous release of "The Wind", Julia feels that she has broken into an unprecedented world. In the new world, everyone is against her. They are so respectful and modest, and the courtesy is plus, she is treated as a princess.

When ABC recorded a talk show, the entire production team was turning around her, recording every detail of the process, and the director of the program carefully asked her for advice.

At the same time, well-paid movie films, advertisements, endorsements and other invitations came to the fore. Her pay was directly raised to $5 million with the box office at the first weekend. This figure has left many male stars unattainable.

Al Pacino also completely got rid of the shadow of the failure four years ago, and the whole person became arrogant. Some of the friends who had not been contacted for a long time suddenly popped out and partyed one after another.

Of course, some people are proud of someone who is frustrated. Richard Kiel, who has begun to cooperate with the United States to promote the new work "Weilong Killing" is undoubtedly the most lost one. His agent used to sing the "Weilong Killing" project, and at the same time, Eric's new film was nothing. Although Richard Kiel knows why his agent did this, he feels that he has rejected Eric's offer and can sell Michael Ovitz. So I chose "Weilong Killing".

If "Fengyue" didn't achieve such great success, even if it was only a small box office, Richard Gere wouldn't have much feeling. Unfortunately, "Fengyue" was successful, and it was a great success. The first week's income will come. Get the total box office of many movies. Richard Gere, who saw this, could hardly calm down.

This kind of uncertainty makes him forget that giving up "Wind Moon" is more of his own choice. If the artist himself insists on taking a film, the CAA will wear small shoes afterwards, but it cannot force the actors to stop. But Richard Gere naturally blamed all the mistakes on CAA, and he felt like he was the victim of Michael Owitz playing with his personal power.

Coca-Cola is located in Atlanta's headquarters, a meeting that is vital to Colombia is taking place.

At this time, Guo Sida, the president of Coca-Cola, held some information about the two films "Little Ghosts" and "Fengyue Beauty". One geological question was asked by the president of Colombia, Blount Cohen.

"For the gambling agreement, this is your first mistake. Of course, with the proceeds of "Little Ghosts", Colombia's stock price has risen from the previous 12 dollars to the current 14 dollars. This mistake can be regarded as a compromise."

Guo Sida finished, changed another document, and then said: "But next, your wrong behavior directly led to Eric Williams to switch to Fox, according to the agency's estimate, "Wind Moon" North American box office may reach 200 million US dollars, overseas box office may exceed 50% of the North American native, pure box office income can bring at least 80 million US dollars in profits for Fox, these should have been Colombia."

Blount Cohen did not dare to refute and waited quietly for the final resolution of the Coca-Cola board. In fact, he had already known his results before. Film company executives look good, but few people know the tremendous pressure behind them.

With tens of millions of dollars of investment, every time the film is released, it will bring about high-level changes. Some people have lost money because of huge losses, and they have never recovered. Some people have been promoted to high positions and enjoy more power and interests because of the success of the project. Of course, they will continue to be scared for the next project.

Blount Cohen also knows that Erik Williams is just a cause, or an excuse, for the fact that he is facing censure. The most important thing is that he himself is opposed to Coca-Cola selling Colombia to the Japanese.

According to some channels revealed, the Coca-Cola board of directors has officially decided to start the acquisition negotiations with Japan's Sony. In this case, it doesn't matter if he changes the president. Anyway, he will soon sell it to the Japanese.

But in order to save his position, he contacted many people and wanted to boycott the deal. This kind of thing is definitely not the top of Coca-Cola. Once it is successful, no one will say anything. But after the failure, we must face the bitter consequences of failure.

"... Therefore, I am now officially announcing the resolution of the board of directors to lift the position of Mr. Blount Cohen, president of the Columbia-Samsung Film Group, and take effect immediately."

Guo Sida read the board resolutions and discussed some other topics before declaring the meeting. Bronte Cohen, as the president, was certainly retained some decent, and was not taken back to the Los Angeles Columbia headquarters to pack the luggage.

Blount Cohen left with a sullen look, but Guo Sida did not go, but came to another reception room.

"Mr. Guo Sida, hello." Pushing the door open, the woman sitting on the sofa stood up and greeted her warmly.

Guo Sida shook hands with the other party and smiled: "Let you wait a long time, Amy."

"It doesn't matter, I just arrived."

This woman was a long time ago, Amy Pascal, who left Colombia with anger.

"My assistant has told me what I meant before, Amy, what do you think?"

Amy Pascal asked: "Mr. Guo Sida, I think, I don't have to return to Colombia anymore. Although I resigned, I still heard some news that Colombia is going to be sold to Sony. In this case, What am I going to do, wait a few months, and be laid off again?"

"Of course not, Amy, you are a very talented professional manager. Even if the Japanese take over Colombia, they dare not make too high-level changes. I have learned about your departure from Colombia, if before Blount. · Cohen listened to your opinion and there would be no gambling agreement that would make Colombia lose tens of millions of profits. After that, there would be no Eric Williams switching to Fox."

Amy Pascal said: "Mr. Guo Sida, it doesn't make any sense to say this now. I want to know the real reason why you let me go back to Colombia."

Guo Sida looked at Amy and said, "Amy, you know Eric Williams, right?"

Sure enough!

Amy Pascal fixed her guess and nodded: "Yes, but only a few faces, maybe Eric will not remember me anymore."

"Oh, how is it possible, if it is not your help, how can there be a box office miracle of "Little Ghosts"?"

Although Amy Pascal did not get any benefit from it, she even lost her job. But Guo Sida mentioned this, she is still a little proud.

"Mr. Guo Sida, if you want me to convince Eric Williams to switch to Colombia, this is unlikely. Everyone knows that Eric has signed three contracts with Fox this year. Until next year, Colombia is already Sony is in his hands."

Guo Sida shook his head. "Of course not. I also let people know about the contract. In fact, the contract is not too strict, because Fox originally only wanted to get the second distribution right of "The Little Devil", so there is no ban on IRe When William Williams worked with Fox, he worked with other film companies. After starting negotiations with Sony, Colombia needed some good news to stimulate stock prices, such as... a big movie."

"but……"

"Don't worry, Amy, I know some of your concerns. In order to be able to work smoothly with Eric Williams, the board has dismissed Bronte Cohen as president of Colombia."

Amy Pascal said: "Really?"

Guo Sida nodded. "Of course, otherwise, with the connection of Blount Cohen, the board is not willing to make a big move. Anyway, he can't sit in that position for a long time. When you are in contact with Eric Williams. You can reveal this to show our sincerity."

Amy Pascal thought of another question: "I think Eric Williams is filming very fast, but the three parts of the year should be considered the limit? How much is the quality guaranteed?"

"We will put his new movie in the summer file. With his current fame, as long as the movie is not too bad, it is not a big problem to get a $100 million box office in the summer file. And..." Guo Sida slightly lowered his voice: "I Will give enough budget to give Fox's second film, we can even find someone to shoot for him, he just concentrate on making the movie for us."

Amy Pascal slightly hesitated for a while and nodded. "I will try my best."
