Emperor Superstar Cultivation System
Chapter 608: Special Contract
"Princess's recommendation?" David was stunned. "Are you sure? Ms. Himmel, this is not a good joke."
Himir shrugged, "David, I'm not kidding about this kind of thing. I'm also puzzled. The princess who has never been involved in these things actually wrote the recommendation letter herself, and it was written by herself. I also hope that this is God joke."
"God always rests." David poured a cup of coffee and said with a bitter taste, "Personally, personally, the princess obviously attaches great importance to it. We have no reason to shirk. China is different from the United States. Now it has a firm foothold here. The government The support is essential, the point now is, how do we do it?"
Himir looked out the window, and suddenly said, "How about...accepting him into the wma family?"
Her black fingers lightly tapped on the armrest. "His record can be described as brilliant. The most important thing is to hold the dawn. This thing will explode in a year. Oh, I have seen the rules of the dawn shining."
"Himmel, you know it's not easy." David frowned and said, "He stepped on something that shouldn't be stepped on, and it will be turned out sooner or later."
Neither of them spoke, and after a long while, Himir said, "Anyway, the princess's name is already there, at least I have to give her face, so let's ask him to talk about it in three days. I am also very interested in him, His achievements over the past few years can be described as brilliant.”
"David, I will leave this matter to you."
The tenth day after the new year.
The icy cold wind was still raging in the air, and many departments had returned to work, but Lin Xiao had already returned to Beijing.
Qin Xin came back with him, knowing that he might leave, the two of them spent more time together.
Most of the time, there was nothing to do, and the two of them moved two chairs on the balcony to watch the scenery, drinking drinks and talking about the future.
"The family is very satisfied with you." Qin Xin leaned on his shoulder, looked at the clouds in the sky, and said lazily, "But I didn't rush us, my mother said that it's better for artists to get married later, anyway, you won't run away."
Lin Xiao stroked her hair, "Wait until I take you to Broadway next year to watch me play a stage play."
"You're so beautiful." Qin Xin slammed his head on his chest, "That place, even an outsider like me knows that the world's elites gather... just go there if you want?"
"An outsider, an insider." Lin Xiao corrected seriously.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
"Mr. Lin, I am the head of the Asia-Pacific of WMA Brokerage Company, Ms. Rome Schimmel." The other party's voice was very gentle, "First of all, I wish you a happy new year."
"Happy New Year." Lin Xiao suddenly raised his mind. Years ago, his application was handed in. Now, the other party's reply finally came.
After chatting for a few words, Himmel turned to the topic.
"Mr. Lin, we have reviewed your information. But we haven't submitted it. It's not that your qualifications are not enough. On the contrary, your qualifications are more than many people's. But... Before that, I want to talk to you in detail .”
"Miss Schimmel, is there anything I haven't detailed?"
"No, no, no, your information is very detailed, and it is no different from what we collected, but..." She sighed, "Some things are difficult to explain clearly on the phone. Why don't you make an appointment with Mr. Lin and let us plan in detail? .”
She said with something in her words, "Whether you really decide to go out of the world, I ask Mr. Lin to decide at that time."
"If you want, wma is willing to be your bridge. If it doesn't meet your wishes, we are still partners."
"Okay, how about tomorrow?"
Himir paused slightly, then smiled and said, "Is Mr. Lin in such a hurry? Actually, if you're really in a hurry, you can do it tomorrow."
"Then tomorrow."
Putting down the phone, Lin Xiao took a long breath.
Finally, he has a way to go abroad, and he is eager to know what the other party says about him.
"I'm going out for a while." He smiled and patted Qin Xin on the head, "I should be back in four days."
"Well, then you have to cook for me."
"no problem."
That afternoon, he bought a ticket to Shanghai without his assistant, only his bodyguards, and went to Shanghai alone.
Outside the country, it is a completely different world, he must rush to the top of Hollywood step by step, assistants, team, these are secondary forces, the real strong, or himself!
The next day, in a private coffee shop in Shanghai, when Lin Xiao arrived, he saw Himir sitting there with a white man.
"Mr. Lin, welcome." The black woman is very plump, wearing a black suit, with a bright rose pinned to her neckline, making the whole suit bulging. "I came to the overseas office of Shanghai WMA on purpose. It's really a mistake." Welcome."
"This is Mr. David." The three shook hands, and after sitting down respectively, Himir nodded towards the white man, "I am mainly responsible for the selection of artists, and I have the power to decide. Today, it is mainly Mr. David and you." talk."
Lin Xiao smiled and sat down.
"Mr. Lin, I have already read your documents." David took out about fifty pages of documents from his briefcase. "As the boss, Mr. Lin, time is precious, so I will try to save time."
"First of all, I have a question." David's expression became serious. "Mr. Lin's current status in China should be as good as his word. If you compare China to Hollywood, Mr. Lin belongs to the highest rank of 2000 million yuan. Mr. Lin Why do you still want to go to Hollywood?"
Lin Xiao thought for a while, but didn't hide anything, "I want to be recognized by more people. The most influential film studio in the world, apart from Hollywood, doesn't think of anyone else."
There was one more thing he didn't say.
Only there can one become a superstar!
David nodded. This reason was within his expectations.Regardless of whether Lin Xiao stepped on the line or not, but he can resolutely challenge foreign countries when he is so popular in China, any artist deserves his sincere admiration.
"Second question, Mr. Lin, what capacity do you want to use to enter the country?"
"Artist, director? Screenwriter? Or... the boss of the company?"
He asked very casually, and Lin Xiao didn't think too much, and answered directly, "Artist."
Schimmel laughed, and David also laughed. The two drank coffee and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Lin, you have chosen the most honorable and most eye-catching career in Hollywood."
The corner of Himir's mouth raised a kind arc, "Not to mention, Mr. Lin, you haven't entered Hollywood yet, so you don't need to know these rules for now, but being an artist is the best profession in Hollywood, bar none!"
David also laughed and said, "There is a famous saying in Hollywood that directors, producers, crews, and even the Big Six are wage earners for artists. Let's put it this way, according to my understanding, Chinese artists are influenced by the word 'actor' , the status is actually not high. Only in Hollywood can you realize what it means to cover the sky with one hand."
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Isn't that a little exaggerated?"
"It's no exaggeration, Mr. Lin." David laughed. "Directing is the hardest and most tiring job, followed by producing. The fame is not half that of the artist, let alone the income. The status... The top artist is definitely the same as the artist." Spielberg is on equal terms. Oh, anyway, if you have the opportunity to step into Hollywood, you know that there is a world of entertainers, directors, producers, and even some status magnates have to stand aside."
He suppressed his smile, "However, Mr. Lin, that's why we didn't report it."
"You have unintentionally encountered a very dreaded rule in Hollywood."
"That's the Holy Trinity!"
Lin Xiao frowned, "What do you say?"
"Is there a trinity in Hollywood? There must be. But, almost all of them are on the big names." He stopped after speaking, and pressed his brows with a headache. "Oh, Mr. Lin, this question is too long, we You have to start specifically with what constitutes Hollywood."
"This is very beneficial for you to go abroad. Because Japan and South Korea are almost following the rules of Hollywood, China can be said to be the only special market among big countries. Understanding these will be of great help to you going abroad."
"China, Japan and South Korea are all director-centered systems." He talked eloquently, "But Europe and the United States are different. Europe and the United States are producer-centered systems."
"To put it simply, directors and artists, in the hands of brokerage companies, contact big companies through brokers and managers, and big companies, Mr. Lin, don't think that they are making movies. They only distribute! Good directors, screenwriters, With the Big Seven—oh, no, the Big Six, MGM has just been annexed by Sony, and their people maintain a cooperative relationship, not a contract relationship with China. Directors, entertainers, are completely free, they only belong to Brokerage companies, not Big Six companies. Of course, it’s not that there are no artists under the Big Six, it’s just that the way to sign contracts with brokerage companies is more free, and it’s chosen by more than 90% of the artists.”
"This system, gradually formed after the collapse of the American 'studio system' in the 50s, is the cornerstone of Hollywood. Producers, representatives of the Big Six, have the greatest voice in the film."
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't catch it for a moment.
"The six giants only produce producers. The producer, Mr. Lin, can be regarded as an investor, but he is not alone. No company has such a crazy move as Li Xiao. A company resists the next film, and the production The filmmakers are responsible for raising funds, and it would be good if they can contribute 10%.”
"The theaters will buy into the productions of these big companies, and they will arrange good schedules. But the marginal relationship is in the hands of the brokerage company, and according to Hollywood's unspoken rules, artists without managers, scripts, big companies don't Will see, directly into the trash can. Therefore, the brokerage company has always been on an equal footing with the Big Six. Mr. Lin can also regard WMA as one of the giants."
"However, it is an iron law that a movie cannot escape the star, let alone the director and screenwriter. In a big movie, the contract is as thick as a book, and the star's salary is the biggest part, and the producer must choose carefully. , stars, directors, strictly prevent newcomers from directing, otherwise, the producer's investment may be in vain."

Solemnly declare that all the information about Hollywood comes from the book "Hollywood Apocalypse" written by Mr. Zhou Liming. You can have no doubts. It cost 40 oceans... I searched for Hollywood rules on Baidu, and found "Hollywood unspoken rules". ...
Flipping through these two pages one by one, my eyes hurt from reading it... The turning point is really difficult to write...
Himir shrugged, "David, I'm not kidding about this kind of thing. I'm also puzzled. The princess who has never been involved in these things actually wrote the recommendation letter herself, and it was written by herself. I also hope that this is God joke."
"God always rests." David poured a cup of coffee and said with a bitter taste, "Personally, personally, the princess obviously attaches great importance to it. We have no reason to shirk.
