I’m in Hollywood

"What, the woman suddenly refused. Didn't you tell me that I have already settled it?" In a villa in Malibu, Bronte Cohen just got up soon, an assistant rushed to visit and brought a bad news.

"Mr. Cohen, it was indeed settled at first, but when we contacted her last night, the woman suddenly repented."

The good mood of the day was destroyed, and Blount Cohen frowned. "Is she too little money, can I add some more?"

The assistant shook his head. "No, I tried it too. The other party refused. It was probably because she had privately reached another agreement with Eric Williams."

The assistant said, taking out a newspaper and handing it to Blount Cohen. Blount Cohen just glanced at the photo of Drew Barrymore and his mother Eddie, who appeared at the door of the Eric mansion. .

Did not read the content, Blount Cohen was too lazy to take care of the paparazzi of the paparazzi, threw the newspaper on the table, and indulged for a while, said: "Did you not recognize it when you contacted the other party?"

If Drew’s mother reached some agreements with Eric, the woman would probably reveal information about the people who made her do those things. Blount Cohen knew that he was not a broad-minded person, but he also knew that Eric Williams was equally uncomfortable. If his calculations were detected by the other side, he would not know what would happen. He will no longer treat Eric as an ordinary young person.

The assistant shook his head quickly: "Of course not, Mr. Cohen, I have not directly contacted the other party, and the population is very good, and will never reveal our information."

"That's good," Blount Cohen was not willing to hesitate, and then said: "This is the first time this is the case."

The assistant bent over and said with a dogleg: "Mr. Cohen, in fact, we can use other methods, not necessarily through the mother of Drew Barrymore..."

Blount Cohen waved his hand: "Okay, I said, this is the end of the matter."

The assistant saw the discomfort on Bronte Cohen's face and quickly stopped.

If it was in the past, Blount Cohen would certainly not be willing to give up, Eric gave him such a big embarrassment, no revenge, the heart of the depression is difficult to release.

But now there are more important troubles that are bothering him.

During this period, after the Japanese Sony consortium successfully acquired CBS Records, it began to frequently contact the Coca-Cola board in an attempt to continue to acquire the Columbia-Samsung Film Group.

Due to the turmoil of the previous period, Bronte Cohen, who had barely stabilized the situation, could not sit still. If Colombia's owner is still Coca-Cola, with his many years of business connections, he may continue to sit in this position for a few years, even until retirement.

However, if the owner of Colombia is replaced by a Japanese, the other party can have no friendship with him. Although Blount Cohen is just self-sufficient, he still has some self-knowledge about his ability. He knows that once the Japanese succeed, their own end is obvious.

Therefore, Blount Cohen also had to renew his spirits and unite some forces opposed to the sale of Colombia, through various methods to prevent the Coca-Cola board from passing the resolution to sell Colombia.

Even Bronte Cohen, who had always been jealous of the "Little Ghosts" box office, had to hold his nose out. After all, although Colombia would lose a big share because of the gambling agreement, "Little Ghosts" However, in the past few years, the only outstanding achievement in Colombia has been achieved.

When he licked his temple, Blount Cohen looked up at the assistant and said, "Yes, I have dinner with Mr. Trevor of the Coca-Cola board at noon. I remember that he likes Latin beauty. You can contact several Latino actresses to accompany you. Remember, be sure to be beautiful."

The assistant apparently became familiar with this kind of thing and quickly nodded: "Okay, Mr. Cohen, I will do it."

......

"Eric, how come you are now, Kapoor Sid has been waiting for half an hour." Eric showed up, and Jeffrey Hansen couldn't help but complain.

Eric apologized: "I am sorry, Jeffrey, just happened to have a traffic jam on the road."

"Okay, don't say this, let's go in."

Because the studio of the film company is still undergoing renovations, Eric had to negotiate with Kapoor Sidde in a coffee shop to acquire his brokerage company.

Kapoor Sid is a white man in his forties who is as tall as many Europeans and Americans, at least one meter nine, bald, with a beard on his face.

Eric came to Kapoor and extended his hand: "Sorry, Mr. Sid, I am late."

Kapoor Sid did not show an unpleasant look. Even if Eric’s lateness was a little unhappy, he smiled and said, “Hello, Eric, don’t you mind calling me that?”

"Of course not, Kapoor, please sit." Eric also changed his name.

"Eric, I have seen your deeds, from publishing "Jurassic Park", selling "returning to the seventeen-year-old" script, and filming "Little Ghosts" to the final gambling agreement, these things are seriously considered, Step by step, interlocking. So you must be a smart and sensible person, then why do you choose me from a number of brokerage companies? I originally planned to sell the brokerage company and go to Europe to continue to develop, but Jeff I said that you want me to stay. You should know my situation, and my conflict with Michael Ovitz makes me struggle in this line."

Eric seriously said: "Because I am not afraid of CAA, maybe other film companies have to bow to the CAA with a lot of top stars for the box office, but I don't need to think about it. CAA has a superstar, but I can create a superstar. What I need is someone who can act as a superstar agent, like you. Not the second- and third-rate brokerage companies."

Kapoor listened to Eric's words and shook his head and smiled: "Eric, your confidence is even more surprising."

"If you don't have enough confidence, you won't have me now."

Thinking of the agreement that was a godsend, Kapoor nodded helplessly, but still said: "Eric, the superstar is not so well trained, I have worked in CAA for so many years, I know very well behind every Hollywood superstar. Need a lot of hard work from a top team..."

Eric interrupted Kapoor’s explanation and asked: “Do you think that Stewart Langkel is not a superstar now?”

Kapoor apparently also knows the little starring role in "The Little Devil", "Of course, he can be said to be the top child in Hollywood, no second."

"So," Eric asked. "If I shoot a movie like "The Devil's Home" in the future, the protagonist will hand it over to you. Do you think you have the ability to shape it into Hollywood's top superstar? ”

"Of course, no problem, but Eric, this assumption is meaningless. The success of "The Little Devil" is hard to replicate. It can be said that it is a kind of luck."

"Don't try to know how?" Eric said, putting his arms up on the table, his hands crossed, and some doubts: "Kapoor, how do I feel... some weird, as a seller, you shouldn’t Is the company trying to sell? But I think you don’t seem to be selling, but deducting?”

Kapoor shrugged: "Eric, I am a broker, not a profiteer, I hope that we can be honest, and I just want to sell the brokerage company in my hands, and give those who still insist on staying in the company. The subordinates have a better home, and I have no intention of staying."

“When you are a broker, is it so frank to negotiate with a film company instead of a customer?”

Kapoor shook his head quickly: "Of course not, I will definitely use every means to get more benefits for my employer, Eric, this is two different things."

"Then I have no problems. Kapoor, the condition for my acquisition of your brokerage company is that you have to stay. Otherwise, the remaining second- and third-rate brokers don't make much sense to me."

"It seems that I have no choice?"

Eric nodded firmly.

Kapoor picked up the coffee and drank it. After thinking for a moment, he finally agreed, and his heart was also faintly expecting. Perhaps this teenager who had already created a miracle could continue to create miracles.
