The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 246 Refuse to be conservative
Anson was not crazy, and neither was Edgar. They both knew all the prerequisites for salary negotiations——

Anson is new.

At the same time, Sony Columbia is optimistic about Anson, which is the unanimous choice.

Therefore, how to exercise discretion and maximize benefits in a limited space has become the second test of Edgar's agent's professional ability.

The first test is to win the role of Peter Parker.

In Edgar's view, it is a good opportunity to seize the opportunity and establish Anson's position as a five-million-dollar or even eight-million-dollar leading actor in the Hollywood industry in one fell swoop; moreover, he is confident that he can convince Sony Columbia to nod. But now, things have changed a bit.

If a movie fails and everything starts from scratch, and a newcomer plays the leading role but fails at the box office, then no matter whether the movie has a box office of five million US dollars or ten million US dollars, the position, treatment, pay, etc. of the next movie must all be overturned. Come.

Hollywood is so cruel.

But what about the success of the movie?
The salary figures of five million US dollars or even eight million US dollars are certainly impactful, but box office dividends of 5% and 10% can also achieve this effect, and can even further establish Anson's sharp vision, courage, and wholeheartedness in addition to the salary income. unique image.

Numbers are only one aspect that can be seen, but the invisible brand benefits are the real value.

As soon as his thoughts changed, Edgar understood.

Of course, it's a gamble:
How to negotiate with Sony Columbia, how to show strength in the negotiations while establishing Anson's image, and finally put all the weight on the success or failure of the film. Every step is a risk, like a knife-tip dance, and any mistakes will be made. Wrong may be a different situation.

but……

Edgar raised his head and looked at Anson. He needed some confirmation. Those clear but deep eyes came to him like this, and the dappled sunlight made shallow ripples.

Confident and calm.

Be firm and calm.

It's that simple.

Taking a deep breath, Edgar nodded, "I understand. Leave the rest to me."

Decide, fall.

Edgar was neither nervous nor apprehensive. Instead, he was gearing up and eager to try——

Edgar knew that there were many competitors inside William Morris waiting to stumbling him, senior and junior, waiting to see the joke and adding insult to injury. They did not expect Anson to actually be able to win. The character of Peter Parker should play it safe now.

Rather than continuing to gamble, Edgar should be content with this and focus on ensuring Anson's signing. Otherwise, once the negotiations break down, William Morris' sharks that smell blood will definitely pounce on him as soon as possible. They didn't mind replacing Anson's place with their own clients.

However, if he had chosen the safe card from the beginning, he would not have secretly stuffed Anson's photo into the brown paper bag.

Who can refuse to take risks?

His blood has begun to boil. This is the reason why he desires to become an agent.

Edgar left. Not long after leaving, Edgar sent an email to Anson, which was an electronic version of the brokerage contract.

The electronic version is for reading only. If Anson has no objections, both parties will find time to formally sign the contract.

Anson did not open it and read it. He was not professional in this matter. As soon as he changed hands, the email was forwarded to Lucas Wood.

Lucas was busy, reading a lot of information and reports, his eyes were sore, and his head was filled with piles of numbers, all tangled together.

Ding.

When the email reminded him, Lucas glanced at it reflexively. He was not prepared to pay attention to it, but when he saw an unexpected name, the corners of his mouth rose.

Anson?

Why did that guy suddenly send an email when he hadn't done anything in a hundred years?

Just open the email, do a quick scan, and then open the attachment. Speechless.

He couldn't help laughing, his fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard, and he immediately replied to an email.

"You should know that I'm not a lawyer, right?"

Having said that, Lucas still started reading the contract, and just in time, his mind was filled with numbers. He switched reading materials to reorganize his thoughts.

Ding.

The email actually came back. Actually!
When Lucas realized his surprise and surprise, he shook his head slightly with helplessness and opened it smoothly.

"know."

One sentence, only one sentence to reply.

Lucas couldn't hold it back, "Hahaha."

There was complete silence outside the office. Everyone looked at Lucas's office with horrified faces: Could it be that Lucas was reading the information abnormally?
The laughter didn't last long, and the office became quiet again.

However, the looks exchanged outside were more panicked and frightened. This emotional ups and downs were completely unusual, so Lucas was really crazy?

Here, Edgar started to get busy.

Over there, Anson also entered a new state.

In fact, the matter has not been settled. It cannot be considered a stage until the contract is signed in black and white. Before that, everything is subject to variables.

What's more, contract numbers, terms, cooperation models, etc. are precisely the most critical and important parts of the negotiation. You can't relax for a day without signing.

However, Anson was not prepared to wait anxiously and anxiously at home. As he waited, random thoughts would easily creep in. Even if nothing happened, anxiety and uneasiness might drive him crazy. He was not prepared to let that happen. He fell into such a difficult situation.

One step ahead, Anson went to New York and started training——

Martial arts training.

First, for the role of Peter Parker, Anson needed to develop muscle lines.

Secondly, the film required a lot of wire work and a lot of fighting scenes, and although stuntmen could have been used, Anson wanted to do it himself.

Rather than being dedicated, Anson wants to try different things. Now that he has won a second chance, he must dare to step out of his comfort zone.

What's more, Anson also wants to pick up the martial arts that he had lost for a long time in his previous life. He is sure that this body has no muscle memory, but he doesn't know how much memory there is in the depths of his soul. He can awaken his interest bit by bit and regain the fun of childhood. It was also something Anson was determined to do.

Even if it wasn't for the filming of "Spider-Man", Anson was prepared to do it. Now he had an honest reason and no excuse to continue to be lazy.

At the same time, you can also prepare in advance for other potential performance opportunities in the future. Since it is a vase, you need to add additional value to this vase.

He did what he said, and even before the negotiations between Edgar and Sony Columbia progressed, Anson had returned to New York.

Why New York?

Chinatown.

New York not only has the largest Chinese community in North America, which was overtaken by San Francisco many years later; it is also one of the cities with the most comprehensive and prosperous development of Chinese culture. Here, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, just like in the movie "Kung Fu", where the tenants take care of themselves. Maybe you are a master.

For Ansen, this is the most suitable place to devote himself to cultivation.
