Being a big shot in the United States of America - Chapter 297

“Dangdang…”

“Come in…”

The door of the office was knocked, interrupting the conversation between George and Tracy. Tracy raised her hand to signal George to stop first and shouted at the door.

The office door was pushed open, and Rosie, dressed in professional clothes, came in. “Boss, your car is ready.”

“Well, wait a minute, I have something to say to George.” Tracy nodded to Rosie, looked at George again and said, “go on.”

“The renewal contract we signed with Todd raised his director’s remuneration to $2 million. The additional terms of the contract are that as long as the North American box office exceeds $100 million, he will get 3%, 25% and 38% of the North American box office revenue

As for Zach, Bradley and Ed’s film remuneration, they will be increased to US $3 million, US $2.4 million and US $2.3 million respectively. The additional terms of the contract are that as long as the North American box office exceeds US $100 million, they will share 5% of the North American box office revenue together… ”

George specifically talked about the content of the new contract, mainly about the remuneration of the director and the three most important stars.

Because the first part of “drunken stay” is very successful, according to the Convention, these important heroes are qualified to participate in the box office share while increasing their film pay.

In fact, Tracy can make fun of the unspoken rules of the industry. He doesn’t have to share so much. However, in order to avoid contract disputes, Tracy is often very generous. Like the thriller of the chainsaw, he never stingy with money to reward those who make money for him.

The director of Todd’s first film paid only 800000 yuan. Now he has increased his film pay by more than 1.5 times. Taking into account the North American box office share, his revenue will be three to four times the original.

For the three important stars, Bradley’s previous pay was 400000, ed 300000 and Zach 200000.

Among them, Zach’s pay increased the most, directly from a nobody to a quasi second-line actor. The other two stars also rose with the big sale of the film.

The film pay is several times higher than before, and the box office share. I believe they have no reason to refuse the contract, let alone make a fuss. I guess they’re celebrating now.

Perhaps, some people will say that Tracy will not control the cost if he gives more money. If he gives more now, they will want more in the future.

Well, if you think so, you’re right. (it’s too complicated to explain here. You can refer to the contract law of the United States and how Marvel uses the contract to restrict the starring. There are also some famous contract disputes, such as Spider Man 3 by tobe Maguire, the strike of all the stars in speed 3, and Mission Impossible 3 by Tom O.)

George said and waited quietly for Tracy to speak. His eyes just met Rosie.

Rosie looked envious. As Tracy’s secretary, she knew too well how much George would get from the box office feast.

How lucky is the agent who used to struggle at the bottom to get close to the boss. In another year, he may become a multimillionaire.

Rosie was envious, but her attention quickly returned to Tracy.

Staring at Tracy’s handsome side face, Rosie’s eyes lit up and thought that the box office was selling well. The boss’s mood is estimated to be very good. I don’t know what reward he will give me and Alice. Tell Alice immediately and try to please the boss these two days.

Tracy didn’t know what black sister’s little secretary was thinking. But Rosie guessed that she and Alice would get a small gift.

“Well, just do what you want. But if you want to sign an eight-year contract for three films, the pay can increase and the share will remain the same.” Tracy thought for a while and said.

In fact, there are only three films in his database. The reason why he signed three more films with them was to ensure that he was not working out the fourth script.

Like this road comedy, it’s actually very difficult to innovate. It’s not easy to ensure the quality of the trilogy “drunk sleep”. If the fourth trilogy just runs to circle money, it’s very simple, but if you don’t want to smash this sign, you should be careful.

These are all later words. I don’t know how many years will elapse after the fourth film is shot. It can be used for the time being.

“Boss, are you ready to go?” when Tracy finished, Rosie, standing on his side, looked at his watch and asked softly.

“Well, ten minutes, you wait for me at the company gate,” Tracy said to Rosie, motioning her to go out first.

Rosie nodded and walked out of the office with small steps. After Rosie left, Tracy looked at George. “Last time you told me that the Weinstein brothers are preparing several projects and are still in contact with Chinese filmmakers. Tell me the details.”

“The Weinstein brothers have brought out several projects from Miramax. A film called confrontation on the line of fire has been started. He also contacted director Quentin Tarantino.”

“Oh, tell me about director Tarantino’s new project?” Tracy asked with a frozen look in her eyes.

Hearing Quentin Tarantino’s name attracted his attention. Tracy has never heard of the small projects mentioned by George and can ignore them. But Quentin Tarantino is different. One of his projects is likely to turn over the Weinstein brothers salted fish.

“As far as our people know, director Tarantino has brought two projects, one called prison and the other called King Kong is not bad…”

“Don’t you have shameless bastards?” Tracy interrupted for a moment.

“Ah?” George was stunned, didn’t understand Tracy’s meaning, and subconsciously said, “no…”

“Well, it’s good if they don’t. go on. What do they want to do when they contact those Chinese filmmakers?”

Tracy said endlessly, and George wondered but didn’t delve into it. He didn’t know that the shameless bastard mentioned by Tracy was one of Quentin’s most famous masterpieces. After the vulgar novel, Quentin’s another peak work, won an Oscar again and won an award.

If it is this project, Tracy must make some small moves. Other projects can be ignored for the time being.

“They want to introduce several Chinese projects to the United States. Now they are contacting Xiangjiang’s Infernal Affairs, Shaolin football and mainland heroes.”

Dead fat man, this is to save the country.

Tracy frowned slightly, tapped his fingers on the table and said, “we can’t let them get these projects. Send our people to contact them. What conditions can the Weinstein brothers give us? We should be better than them.”
