"'Independence Day' is your winning work, don't you know?" Barry said solemnly, his eyes gleaming with sincere light.
The North American box office of 500 million US dollars, which is indeed equivalent to the Hollywood Nobel Prize, is far more attractive than the Oscar statuettes. Of course, if "only" is the case, Hugo is not enough to truly enter the peak of power, even "Yihai Xiongfeng", "Sleepless in Seattle", "Schindler's List", "Speed of Life and Death", and "Vulgar" The success of many films such as "Fiction" and "The Seven Deadly Sins" is still not enough for Hugo to knock on the door of the top class, because Hugo is an actor, he is just an actor, not a director or a producer. The strength of these works is at best equal to Hugo and James Cameron, Mike Nichols, Robert Zemigis and other top directors.
However, the influence of "storms" on the entire music market has become a key key. What Hollywood bigwigs see is not album sales, let alone music power, but Hugo's deep-rooted influence on music fans hidden behind the sales. It can almost be said that they rely on one fell swoop to make rock reach the pinnacle.
This allows Hugo to be on the same level as Steven Spielberg, David Geffen, George Lucas and other bigwigs. The biggest difference between these bigwigs and the appeal director is that they have their own power. History The DreamWorks founded by Steven and David, and George is the leader of Industrial Light & Magic. Now, the single-handed Hugo also has such a status-Endeavour elite brokerage company can also be regarded as barely among the ranks of Hollywood's top players.
"'Independence Day'? Wow, this is an unexpected surprise." Hugo laughed and walked towards the sofa. "If so, I don't know if it's too late for me to celebrate with champagne tonight? "While speaking, Hugo looked at Joseph, and then saw Joseph tap his chin. Hugo immediately received the message.
It seems that today's talks between Rick and Barry still came out. However, Barry actually came to Long Beach on the same day, is this too impatient? This is not like his calmness when he was in Berlin.
Barry is indeed very urgent. In fact, he deliberately acted so urgently, showing it to Hugo to let Hugo know that they value and respect him; also showing it to other competitors, making them mistakenly believe that this time Warner Bros. Forced to the edge of the cliff and forced to make a decision, but in fact the final agreement still did not exceed Barry’s bottom line. Everything was still under Barry's control-all he needed was other people at the helm to make wrong judgments. Can win more development time for Warner Bros.
Therefore, Barry did not "conceal" his urgency at this time, "I made a special trip today because Curtis has urged me several times. The work of'L.A. Confidential' must enter the casting stage, so I thought I want to come over and say hello to you." Barry still seemed calm on the surface, but as soon as everyone sat down, he immediately cut into the topic, and his attitude couldn't be more obvious.
"Hehe, Rick is already busy, and he will call you by himself by tomorrow at the latest." Joseph, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke at this moment, disrupting Barry's plan. A lot of information was revealed to Hugo.
Joseph's timing is very delicate and his speech is also very skillful. He clicked until he clicked, but it was enough for Hugo to understand. The momentum Barry created could not help but paused, but Barry was not surprised, and continued to follow Joseph's words, "I see, not only Rick, but many people will start trying to contact you."
After speaking, Barry curled the corners of his mouth and showed a big smile. The subtext is to say that the works that Hugo participates in will inevitably become the goal of everyone vying to participate. This invisibly sought after Hugo again.
What Joseph said just now is actually implying that there is no problem with the production rights of the "L.A. Confidential". Hugo, as expected, will take over the work of the film producer for the first time; but with regard to the details of the production rights, Barry does not Willing to make concessions, for example, on the issue of casting, it seems that Barry did not agree to bundle "L.A. Confidential" by Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.
It can be guessed that Barry has sacrificed so many rights this time, and the goal must be to maximize benefits, and there are many things to make a fuss about during the casting stage. Therefore, the negotiations between Barry and Rick did not achieve a crucial breakthrough. It is estimated that this is also one of the reasons why Rick is willing to come to see Hugo. After all, the real right to speak lies with Hugo-only Hugo's autograph can make the contract effective.
"That's terrible, my phone just broke, and now I'm recuperating." Although Hugo doesn't know the details of the negotiation between Rick and Barry, Joseph's reminder just now is enough, so he is not soft or hard. The ground gave Barry a nail.
Barry obviously didn't expect Hugo's answer, but he didn't deliberately conceal it. He opened his eyes wide to show his surprise, but the words spoken have another meaning, "No wonder Joe just said that he can't contact you now. I didn't think of the reason for this." Barry smiled, and then took the initiative to look at Joseph, "So, in this case, you still don't know the specifics about the cooperation of'L.A. Confidential'?" This is Soliciting Joseph's opinion, let Joseph take the initiative to explain to Hugo.
No, Joseph was given this opportunity, but he gave up and said with a smile, "Then please explain it yourself. Recently, because I have other jobs, I have very limited knowledge of this project."
Barry immediately associated "Boogie Night" and "Murder of Green Toe" from Joseph's words. Although he did not know how the "murder of Green Toe" progressed, he could be sure that Mark Canton would never give up easily, but he knew Paul -Thomas Anderson and Hugo made an appointment to meet-to Warner Bros., the internal news of New Line Pictures is obviously not an iron wall.
Barry took a deep look at Joseph. He knew that Joseph was putting pressure on him, but he couldn't help it, because Hugo had to pass this hurdle. However, Rick is not here, and Joseph has no intentions. This means that he has enough time and space to develop his abilities. This is his advantage and he has enough confidence.
"It's like this. I heard Rick say that you are very satisfied with the script of'L.A. Confidential', and you have discussed it with Curtis a few times." Attention.
"Twice." Hugo didn't deny it, and said with a smile, "but I haven't had the opportunity to discuss further with Curtis recently. I haven't decided yet which role to play. After all, I still have to ask the director for his opinion." "Luo "City Secret" is a three-protagonist model. Although the weight of the three protagonists is slightly different, the difference is not big. There is no problem reporting any character as the protagonist.
"Of course, but I believe no matter which role it is, it will not be a problem for you." Barry said politely. There is no need for more compliments about Hugo's acting skills. "Who is acting against you, this It’s more important.” Hugo said without a smile, “So, we will do our best to find more suitable actors and form a strong cast. The American Screen Actors Guild has hundreds of thousands of actors, and we have to choose them. Inexhaustible resources."
Barry deliberately circumvented the brokerage company and used the American Screen Actors Guild as a unit to tell the story. In fact, he didn't want to pack the actors into the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.
Hearing the sound of the string, Hugo finally understood it. He glanced at Joseph slightly out of his sight, and got a positive answer. However, before Hugo could respond, Barry went on to say, “I discussed with Rick about the part of the film remuneration. I think it’s best to use box office dividends to pay, mainly because of the movie. Curtis doesn’t think it needs too many visual effects.”
There was a lot of information in Barry’s remarks. The huge amount of information flooded in, making Hugo a little overwhelmed, but he didn’t get too anxious. I don’t know much about the cost. I don’t know what the project budget is this time."
"Thirty million U.S. dollars." Barry did not detour, "but if you choose to pay in cash instead of box office dividends, then the budget can be up to 50 million U.S. dollars."
This cost is already considered high. Obviously, Barry's estimated salary for Hugo is still US$20 million.
This is the first time Hugo has come into contact with the scope of production In the past, only the salary was enough, but now, he is not only an actor, but also a producer, how to control costs , And make more profit, this is one of Hugo's tasks. Obviously, all this is very unfamiliar to Hugo, and a series of numbers are thrown directly, which is easy to confuse people.
Not to mention Hugo, even a senior agent like Rick wants to get started as a producer. It is not an easy task. Industry specializing in surgery. As a producer, Hugo should control the quality of his work more. With his keen sense of script and performance, he controls the quality of the finished product of "L.A. Confidential", and professionals are responsible for cost control.
Barry would not be ignorant of all this, but he took the initiative to bring it up in front of Hugo, apparently prepared. Hugo didn't answer right away, but showed an expression of listening attentively.
Barry paused, did not wait for Hugo's answer, so he continued, "Of course, if you are willing to choose box office dividends, then the maximum limit is 20%, and we can use 2% of the North American box office. Ten to pay your expenses-as an actor and as a producer at the same time."
Twenty percent, this is almost the highest dividend that can be obtained as a producer in the Hollywood circle at present!
