Chapter Eighty-Six: Buddies hate coercion the most
William White's opponents have a headache, and they can foresee that Hollywood on the bright side will become a Shura field, because no boss will not be blushing.
What is the concept of two successive low-cost box office over 100 million?
This is the hatred of the red fruit.
You superman 100 million box office is useful?
The cost is at least 30 million, right?
The cost of publicity and distribution is not too much, right?
Excluding other profits in the future, the money you make is a fraction of what people make, even if your videotape rental is good, people are not as good as you?
Hollywood screenwriters have been driven crazy, and if they can't come up with a script that the boss is satisfied with, they may all have to be rolled up.
What's the use of having experience?
You're all failures, and you're not as good as a sophomore.
Is Hollywood short of scripts?
A place where even taxi drivers write scripts, there is never a shortage of scripts.
A first-class director has always been a second-rate script, which is the norm in Hollywood.
The actor is obviously a little uncomfortable, not that he can't act, William White really has no lower limit.
The police academy is better, the two guys in the house are miserable enough, and this kind of role is really only picked up by hitting the street.
No matter how much money you give, Stallone and Mel Gibson won't shoot it, they like to play the role of the bombardment, and they will never play the clown.
They don't know how to shoot, Hollywood doesn't care about the streets, in their opinion, these two guys are simply touched by Lady Luck.
William White's requirements for the role are already known to the outside world, and there is no need for acting skills at all, and whoever has a less beaten face will have to do it.
Now the salaries of the two guys have started at 500,000 yuan, and the second tier of Hollywood is at this level.
These street beaters were surprised to find that White Pictures was very kind, and the crew members took a share according to their income, and the proportion was as high as 5%. It's only North America, but it's shocking enough.
The box office of the little ghost is already 100 million, and the salary of these two street hits is 200,000 US dollars, and if you add dividends, it will be more than 500,000 yuan.
Normally, giving 200,000 to two guys is already a favor, who will give what box office share, but this is indeed the rule of White Pictures, and the boss takes the money according to this ratio.
Seriously speaking, William White took less, and the script and director were only 1.5 million.
Obviously, people didn't play tricks on this, to be honest, as long as William White's script was taken out, it was worth at least two million.
Don't be unconvinced by this, the results can convince everything, unless he fails once, otherwise the price will only be high and not low.
Both film scripts are in film school, so it's not difficult to get them.
There are mixed evaluations of his directing ability, but even a director of Lucas's level can't say anything about his script.
It can be seen that this product was indeed born in a professional class, although he has not graduated yet, other people's scripts are indeed like textbooks, and if you can't shoot such a script well, it is estimated that you will not be able to be a director.
William White is not a virgin, and he is helpless to distribute benefits like this, this group of agents on the street has nothing to say, once there is a brokerage team, all kinds of is definitely a headache.
Many good movies can't make sequels, the main reason is that the salary is too expensive, what is the final level of Tom and Vin Diesel's salary?
100 million US dollars.
This doesn't include other peripheral benefits.
Why did the extreme agent change?
Who can afford this price.
Mission Impossible has become Tom's private goods, and without a strong heart, it's best not to cooperate with these guys.
It's not right to say that it's all about actors, and here we have to talk about the hidden hegemon of Hollywood.
There are two kinds of agencies in Hollywood, one is called CAA and the other is called Other.
CAA's best thing is all kinds of packaging services, and a lot of the movie supporting actor choices are decided by them, and this kind of package looks good, but when your movie is a big hit, they will jam your neck in the sequel.
William White's approach is actually to copy CAA, and he belongs to the company's internal packaging.
The signing is also in accordance with the series model, he plans to shoot a few films, and the actors must also sign contracts in advance, although the salary of each movie will be superimposed, and there will be a lot of increases.
But human nature is greedy, and if you can't share the benefits, they will definitely be out of balance. If the CAA is provoking, the sequel may have a difficult birth.
At this point, Lao Mei will not be polite, no matter how good the relationship is, it is useless, if you can't meet their requirements, you will really choose to lose both.
William White is not stingy, but he will never accept unreasonable remuneration, this kind of bundled sharing is good, at least temporarily avoiding a lot of risks.
The CAA actually found out that their set was useless at White Pictures, and if they didn't agree to White Pictures' request, the actors would be kicked out directly, and they would not have the opportunity to audition in the future.
Before the home alone became popular, CAA was unimpressed, and if this movie hit the streets, you would inevitably be ridiculed by a group of guys.
Now the situation is different, the two actors who were kicked out are very popular, which is not a good thing for CAA, if they can't be appeased in time, their fame will be stinky.
CAA was abandoned when they came up with more casting, and they didn't care much about it then, but that's not the case now, and many of their clients are dissatisfied.
This group of bastards can also figure it out, people are just small-made comedies, a lot of actors can choose from, no matter how many big-name actors you have, it's useless, people don't need them at all.
If the relationship continues to deteriorate, people may start their own brokerage companies, and it is really not good to buy one, and then they will be competitors, and it is normal to completely break up.
It's not easy to reconcile, the culture of a people's company is like this, no one is indispensable, and the actor's salary will never be raised unlimitedly.
The brokerage company takes a share, and of course they are not willing to accept it, and in their opinion, William White is simply messy.
Is it necessary to pay dividends for lighting and videography?
You have all the tricks of the meow, this is really outrageous, their wages are already high enough, how can they ask for more.
The idea of CAA is obviously very one-sided, and Hollywood practitioners are very welcoming to William White's approach, and if White Film expands again, the core teams of several giants will be shaken.
This is not a small amount of money, similar to this kind of movie with a box office of hundreds of millions of dollars, their income is very considerable.
You can make a movie as a star?
Why should you be the only one who has dividends?
Your salary is terrible, and the dividends are more than others, and you still want to take our share, which is simply unbearable.
Any act of cutting the interests of the crew will be resisted by the entire crew, not to mention that William White doesn't want such people, even if they enter the crew, they will not survive, and if they are not killed, they will be smoked from the ancestral grave.
