Syllable!

Ovitz threw the phone on the table fiercely, and the other three people in Ovitz's room could see that Ovitz must have been angry about something, otherwise Ovitz, who had just won a match, would not be like this at this time!

Meyer motioned directly to Aniston to leave the room first.

After leaving Ovitz's room, Aniston kept an eye on herself, and instead of shutting the door of the room, she left a gap that was just right for her to hear the sound inside.

"What's going on?" Meyer asked directly.

Ovitz said viciously: "Just now, Hera's agent announced that he has obtained an investment of 500 million US dollars from Lutai, and released words in the industry that he will increase the salary of incumbent brokers by 50%, and at the same time announced that as long as CAA's agent passes Hera's brokerage and takes away a star, he will be rewarded with 500,000 US dollars!"

Meyer and Harper both showed shocked expressions, no one thought that Hera's agent would do this, in their opinion, Hera's agent should poach people, but its target must be those stars and directors who have become famous, but they forgot that although star and director resources are very important in a brokerage company, the agent is also very important, and the effect achieved by an excellent agent is no worse than a star, or even more important than a star.

After all, celebrities don't care about specific businesses, they just need to ensure the success of their performances when they perform, and those specific things are done by agents, and now Hera's agents are directly targeting CAA's agents!

A star may not have too deep feelings for his agency, but he must have absolute trust in his agent, as long as the agent leaves, the star will have a high probability of leaving.......

"Immediately hold a meeting within the company and at the same time improve the treatment of our agents, and make sure that everyone's emotions are calmed. Ovitz immediately ordered.

Harper immediately went out to deal with the matter, and Meyer stayed in the office and said, "Hera Brokerage is breaking the rules of the entire industry, in this case, how will the other brokerage companies react?"

Ovitz said angrily: "The other party is targeting us, and it has been made clear that only CAA's agent will lead the star to the past, and there will be a reward of 500,000 yuan, and the agent of other brokerage companies does not have this treatment, and at the same time, Hera's agent has reached an agreement with WMA and ICM to fully promote the cooperation between their company's artists and phantoms, and at the same time indicate that Hera's agent will not accept their agents and artists!"

Meyer said, "What about the pay they give their agents a raise?"

Ovitz: "As long as Hera's agent doesn't poach their people, they have time to deal with this matter, and they just announced one thing, Hera's agent has decided to adjust the share of the agency and the actor to 8%, if you do so, it's against our CAA, you see, those actors who have conflicts with the Phantom, the director may not pass Hera's agency, but they can participate in the other two agencies." ”

At the end, Ovitz said with fire in his eyes: "They are treating CAA as a big cake, ready to share and eat!"

Just when Harper went out, Aniston had secretly left CAA, and when she walked out of CAA's phone, she immediately dialed Wu Jianye's phone!

"Director Wu, I'm Aniston, there are some things I want to talk to you face-to-face, how about making an appointment at the Hilton Hotel?" Aniston has already made a decision at this time, and now Hera's agent has made a move, and it will be 500 million US dollars!

Just now, she thought that CAA gave up her future for her own development, which made her very dissatisfied, and now she saw that Hera's agent shot was 500 million US dollars, and she immediately made a decision in her heart, whether the CAA ship can sink or not, she doesn't know, but there will definitely be problems next, and she doesn't have much affection for CAA.

Wu Jianye's invitation to Aniston is not surprising, as he said before, CAA may be full of talents now, but for CAA, their core interests are too easy to be copied, whether it is a star or a director, they are all independent individuals, with their own ideas, as long as they can get better development opportunities, they will not be tied to CAA, and the agent is even more so.

This is different from the Phantom, their core business is movies, this actor does not act, they can use another actor, as long as the core resources are in their own hands, the Phantom does not worry about the outside world.

Wu Jianye did not refuse Aniston's invitation, in fact, in Wu Jianye's heart, Aniston, the prey, never slipped away in his hands.

When Aniston went to the Hilton Hotel, she also called her agent, indicating that if the other party did not agree to sign a contract with ABC, she would choose to terminate the contract with CAA.

What's more, he is now an active defector, Hera's agent has long said that as long as there are actors who are willing to pass Hera's agent in CAA, the liquidated damages will be borne by them.......

After receiving a call from Aniston, Howard did not report the matter directly to Ovitz and the others, but sat in his place and began to think about it.

He was surrounded by his colleagues, and at this time he could see that everyone's eyes were flashing with complicated expressions, after all, what are you doing in this industry for?

Isn't it just for the money!

If you want to say how deep the relationship with CAA is, it is not necessarily there, it is certain that there are feelings, but in the face of high returns, these feelings are not so important!

Everyone has their own calculations in their own minds, and Harper is announcing the company's latest decision.

In order to be able to retain these brokers, CAA also worked hard, and the basic salary was increased by 20%, but compared to the increase of Hera's brokerage, it is not enough!

"Don't be fooled by the decisions of other companies outside, now the content announced by the other party is just a means to confuse everyone, I believe that after this matter passes, the other party will definitely transfer the salary back, otherwise if you do this, how can Hera Broker maintain its normal operation, after our calculations, if according to the other party's approach, their annual profit will be reduced by 70%, do you think they can accept such a loss?"

"The success of CAA can be said to be everyone's success, as long as we can survive the current difficulties, the Hollywood brokerage circle will still be our CAA world in the future, and we should not lose the good prospects of the future because of some immediate interests!"

It's a pity that Harper's spitting on the stage did not cause a strong reaction, in the end, the temptation of 500,000 is too great, as a well-known agent, who doesn't have two or three stars in his hands, as long as he can bring it over, he can get millions of cash.

That's millions of dollars!

Who wouldn't be impressed!

After the meeting, several agents got together in twos and threes and began to discuss the matter.

"Howard, everyone knows that your artist Aniston received an invitation from Wu Jianye last night, what is she doing now?" someone knocked on the side of the hall Howard.

Although everyone is excited, but there is a lack of an opportunity, everyone is waiting for the first person to appear, and now the guarantee of Hera's agent does make everyone very excited, but CAA has always been very powerful in Hollywood, and everyone is worried that this is just a beautiful promise of Hera's agent.

Now everyone wants to know whether Hera's agent can deliver on his promise, and Aniston, who was preparing to sign with ABC, is a good breakthrough.

Everyone is waiting, but this wait-and-see will certainly not last long, and not everyone has such good patience.

Although Howard's heart is also turning a thousand times, he still smiled quietly: "How do I know what she is doing, everyone also knows that Aniston is just an ordinary artist under my name, and I usually don't pay much attention to her!"

After saying that, Howard casually found a reason and left.

Everyone looked at the back of him leaving, and they also fell into deep thought.

After Howard left CAA, he immediately called the most famous actor under his name: "Keanu, there's something, I think we should meet and have a good chat!"

Keanu Reeves is also a signed artist with CAA, and after starring in "Life and Death", he has become the most famous artist in Howard's hands!

Keanu Reeves received a call from Howard and said, "Okay, come here!"

Howard drove the car and hurried to Keanu Reeves' apartment.

"Howard, I know what you're here for, and now I need to know what you really think!" The news about Hera's agent poaching CAA's agent spread throughout Hollywood in an extremely rapid way, and almost everyone in Hollywood now knows about it.

At the same time, everyone is watching the development of this matter.

Now Keanu Reeves is the same, it can be said that his success has the least to do with the operation of CAA, he met Wu Jianye in a bar, and then had the opportunity to star in the movie "Life and Death", so he does not have a deep affection for CAA.

On the contrary, it is the Phantom, because he cooperated with the Phantom in "Speed of Life and Death", which made him a popular fried chicken in Hollywood, and now there are continuous film appointments, but he still had some resentment about the Phantom in his heart before, that is, the Phantom actually sold the sequel copyright of the movie "Speed of Life and Death" to Disney.

He also knew about CAA's actions against the phantom before, and his heart was quite complicated, although he had some prejudices about the phantom, but he was still very grateful to Wu Jianye, and now that the phantom's counterattack had begun, his heart was also quite complicated.

Howard said in a deep voice: "I know your relationship with Director Wu, I want to ask you, what do you think of the future of Director Wu and the Phantom!"

Keanu Reeves said in a deep voice: "After acquiring the Phantom of ABC, the future development will definitely get better and better, in fact, I have always disagreed with Ovitz's approach, he is a little too domineering now, just because of the robbery behavior with Hera's agent, he wants to target the entire Phantom, can't he see the possibility of the Phantom's future development?"

As Keanu Reeves, he naturally can't see that Ovitz is preparing to take advantage of this time against the Phantom to give Hollywood a shock and improve his prestige.

But he also has his own thoughts, that is, Ovitz is too domineering to do this, Phantom, as one of the largest media groups in the United States, he even said that it will be targeted, so if there are actors who are dissatisfied with the management of CAA and want to change their agency in the future, will they also be targeted?

In fact, Keanu Reeves's worries are not unreasonable, a few years later, after Tom Cruise was dissatisfied with the operation of CAA, he categorically ended the contract with CAA, and then Tom Cruise's former agent announced a lot of Tom Cruise's black material, which made Tom Cruise a headache.

Howard smiled bitterly, CAA's domineering is no longer a day or two, no one dared to oppose their domineering before, and now Hera's agent has stood up, which is tantamount to dropping a nuclear bomb.

"If, I mean if, if I choose to end my employment contract with CAA, then you ......."

Keanu Reeves remembered a conversation he had with Wu Jianye before, in which Wu Jianye once said that in the next few years, when his acting skills are mature again and the development of film technology is further, he will write a movie trilogy for himself.

said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to advance and retreat with you!"

Hearing Keanu Reeves say this, Howard immediately showed a happy smile, with the two cards of Keanu Reeves and Aniston, he had already made his decision.

"Okay, I'll go back to the company to go through the formalities now, as for the follow-up matters and your contract issues, I will tell you after I finish talking to Hera's agent!"

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news!" Keanu Reeves said with a smile.

Subsequently, Howard called Aniston again, but Aniston did not answer the call, but Howard was not surprised by this, and then called Hera's agent, and after getting a positive answer from the other party, he hurriedly returned to the company!

"What are you going to resign!"

When Harper received Howard's resignation notice, his face became gloomy.

"I remember when you first started in the industry, you were a young man who didn't know anything, and the company trained you, but now at this time, are you going to abandon the company?" Harper said in a deep voice.

Howard said: "I am also grateful for the cultivation of the company, but everyone has their own ambitions, Mr. Harper, I think we should get together and disperse!"

"Do you know that your resignation is subject to liquidated damages?" Harper saw that his intentions were not working, and began to show the ruthless side of the capitalists.

"Please rest assured, I will pay the liquidated damages immediately!" Howard has already decided to leave!

In the end, Harper did not keep Howard, and when Howard walked out of Harper's office, many colleagues surrounded him and asked Howard for details about the matter.

Howard said with a victor's smile at this time: "I think it won't take two days, and everyone will know!"

The next day, they got the news that Howard had signed a contract with Hera's agent, taking Keanu Reeves, Aniston and another star under his name, and he also announced in the circle that he had been paid $1.5 million.......

Aniston is also a star?

Some people can't help but think about it.......
