Legendary Hollywood Producer - Chapter 168

Returning to Manhai Entertainment again, Christopher Nolan felt differently.

Compared to the previous period, he was a little more worried, and now he is particularly confident.

Although I don’t know why CAA supported him so strongly, he still accepted this fact smoothly.

“President Roman, Director Nolan is here.” Hearing the news from the front desk, Roman said, “Bring them to the reception room.”

When Roman saw Christopher Nolan again from the reception room, there was an acquaintance in front of him.

“Hi, Roman.”

It was CAA giant Kevin Hoween who came to shake hands with him.

“Kevin, nice to meet you.”

Although he didn’t understand the intention of this acquaintance, Roman still greeted him with a smile.

After sitting down, Roman did not speak for the first time, but looked at Kevin Hoween, the same as you said first.

“We’re here, there is something we want to discuss.” Christopher Nolan spoke first.

Kevin Hoween also echoed: “I will act as Director Nolan’s agent and be responsible for his remuneration issue. However, there is one more thing, I hope to communicate with Mr. Roman in advance. In fact, CAA also has an opinion on “Batman”. The project is very interesting.”

“I can’t be the master on the issue of remuneration. You have to negotiate with Warner Pictures, and if you want to cooperate, you also need Warner’s consent.” Roman knew Kevin Hoween’s intentions, but he didn’t answer. Kick the ball to Warner Bros.

Christopher Nolan was silent. He came here to play a probing role, and the details of the discussion still have to be handed over to CAA for specific negotiation. Too much depth is not a wise choice, he thinks very clearly in this regard.

“But we learned that Manhai Entertainment has a lot of weight in the leadership of this project, so we want to come over in advance to confirm the general direction of some things with Mr. Roman.” Kevin Howen said slowly.

Seeing that CAA came prepared, Roman didn’t feel any embarrassment of being dismantled, and he didn’t go around in circles, and said directly: “Say, Kevin, what are your CAA conditions?”

“It’s very simple. CAA is very optimistic about the prospects of this project.” With Christopher Nolan in his hand, the director’s trump card, as well as various resources for the establishment of the crew, Kevin Hoween seemed confident, “We want to pack this. For the shooting and production of the project, all the behind-the-scenes teams that need to be used can be formed from CAA. We will also provide the best candidates in various industries to create the most suitable production team. In addition, this movie is looking for For actor roles, we will try our best to communicate the schedules of our artists and adjust them to make concessions to “Batman”. Everything is prioritized by the “Batman” project.”

Packing service and superstar schedule seem to be very good conditions, but Roman doesn’t take this set.

Even if CAA is not involved, they can still recruit the best talents in various industries, and the actors are not a problem. There is no need to consider the filming cost of 150 million US dollars. Only the people in the film industry try their best to join “Batman” instead of worrying about the crew.

The big production is full of infinite appeal, which is as miserable as Kevin Hoween said, his conditions are nothing at all.

On the contrary, if the package service is obtained, the entire crew will be controlled by CAA, and the director is also a person from CAA, plus what they say is to provide actors…

If something goes wrong, isn’t it that he, the producer, is the most passive, how can he explain to Warner Bros. Pictures and Russian investors that he will be in the most embarrassing situation at that time. It’s hard to be a man in the middle. In particular, this packaging service must be charged extra, which undoubtedly increases the cost of shooting, which is bound to bring a series of chain reactions. It’s the most annoying to divide the cake.

I want to touch the interests he has worked so hard for, no way!

Seeing what Kevin Hoveen wanted to say, Roman did not hesitate and interrupted directly: “I still want to get Warner’s approval. I have no problem here, but the specific negotiation is to find Warner, he is. The copyright owner of the movie, Manhai Entertainment is at best a commissioned producer.”

The righteous Kevin Howen froze for a moment. Wasn’t he still cooperating well, and he was good at talking before, so why has he become so tough today? Still negotiating with Warner, if they can find a breakthrough from there, will their CAA still try to create side-cutting opportunities in such a way?

“Roman, we at CAA are very sincere. This will definitely be a win-win cooperation.”

“But I don’t count.” Roman continued to kill this sentence.

“CAA has the most high-quality production team resources. Their industry resumes are very rich and they are definitely worth choosing. For such a big production, don’t you want to form the most luxurious behind-the-scenes team? CAA can help.” Wen Huoweien emphasized, “We CAA is the most powerful brokerage company in the industry and we definitely have this strength.”

“I also agree with this sentence, but I really can’t do anything about it. Maybe when you CAA negotiate with Warner, we, Manhai Entertainment, can stand on your side and give support, how about?” This is Hollywood, The most important thing is talents in related professions, and there is no one who cannot be replaced. Why are you so confident? Roman raised his head and glanced at Christopher Nolan. He sat peacefully, not knowing what was thinking.

He is not a naive person either. After his success in later generations, he did not choose to terminate the contract with CAA and put Bao on a smart person. How can there be any absolute support? When the wind is wrong, maybe he will be the first. Someone who pierced the CAA.

Roman turned his head and looked at Kevin Hoween, and suddenly wanted to laugh. These brokerage companies still did not see through their own strength. He was no longer the president of the third-rate studio before, and he was supported by Paramount and Warner. , Manhai Entertainment has no fear of CAA.

After talking for so long, he still couldn’t get the result he wanted. Kevin Howen knew that there would be no progress in the conversation. He began to become polite and plan in a different way.

“Let’s do this, I have to go to Warner Bros. Pictures to negotiate the director’s pay for Christopher Nolan, and then I will leave first.” Kevin Hoween still had a smile on his face, and took the initiative to end this session. to chat with.

“I’ll send you off.” Roman also appeared to be very talkative, and said that he took the initiative to send them off.

“no need.”

“…”
