Chapter 22 Wealthy Crew

John continued to look down at the crew list, and when he got the three great gods, he knew that his luck had come to an end, and it was impossible for the great gods to appear.

As soon as John's idea fell on his mind, his judgment was instantly overturned by the name "Larry Dias" in the scenographer's column.

Not to mention the general audience, this name may not be clear to many veteran fans, but for an insider like John, the owner of this name definitely represents Hollywood's top set designers.

When it comes to his name, no one knows, but if you talk about his works, even the average general audience is familiar with them, it is "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Transformers", "The Hunger Games", "Raiders of the Lost Ark 4", "Inception" with hundreds of millions of fans...... Wait a minute.

The directors he has worked with are many of Hollywood's top directors, such as Spielberg, Mike Bay, Gary Rose, Christopher Nolan...... Wait, if it weren't for two brushes, it would be impossible for these great guides to choose him.

Looking at the name of Ri Dias, John really couldn't figure out where Nancy had scooped up this great god, it was all too incredible for him.

Like photographer Emmanuel Lubezki, this great god will not have an interview for his first work until 1991, but he didn't expect Nancy to be so good at digging, and anyone who hides so deeply can be dug up by him.

John thinks that Nancy is really making the best use of it as an agent, "If you want to poach people and have strong technicians, Hollywood ICM companies are looking for Nancy." This slogan is not only suitable for excavators, John thinks it is more suitable for Nancy.

In fact, there is nothing incredible about John's incredibleness for Nancy, and her criteria for forming a crew for John are that they have been in the industry for a short time and have no reputation.

So she can directly poach newcomers or people with little reputation at high prices in major crews or small companies, anyway, the money is paid by John, and she has no burden in her heart.

But it was her deliberate move that inadvertently created a god in the industry for John.

All this seems to be intentional, but in fact it is full of accidents.

Look at the time when these gods became famous, you can get the answer, these gods only became famous after the new millennium, for them who were born in the early 60s, in the early 90s, it was just when they entered the development of the film industry, so Nancy will dig them out one by one in small crews and small companies.

Just like the set designer Larry Dias, he had just come to Hollywood and needed to find an agent to contact him for business, so he chose ICM, one of Hollywood's three major agent agencies.

After Nancy saw his information, she felt that she met her criteria for selecting crew members for John, so she took the lead and got Larry Dias into John's crew.

So Nancy didn't bother digging up these industry gods, and to put it mildly, she didn't even sweat a drop.

Of course, Nancy's little actions John is not clear, even if it is clear, he will not be angry, but should thank Nancy, if it is not Nancy's intention, how can he have these great gods!

This also corresponds to an ancient Chinese saying: if you have the intention to plant flowers and flowers, you will not bloom, and you will unintentionally plant willows and willows into the shade.

After John settled down, he continued to look at the next column of the scenographer, which reads:

Prop Master: Rand Wilson

This name John has not seen in later generations, and it is clear that this prop master is not a master of the industry, but John is not much disappointed.

Because it is impossible for all the gods of the world to be poached into his crew by Nancy, if this is the case, then John will have to have a good time with God and ask Nancy and him who is the reborn.

After looking at the prop master, John continued to look down,

Costume Designer: Kearns Bryan

Sound Editor: Adonis David

Pyrotechnician: Edgar Jim

Gaffer: Cole Edwin Larry

John hadn't heard any of these names in his later life, but he didn't care, after all, the great god is limited, and if it comes out all over the mountains like mushrooms after rain, then the great god is too worthless.

But John, the prop master, lighting engineer, and sound editor, decided to start from scratch.

A crew is also divided into important positions and secondary positions, in the crew photographer, editor, lighting engineer, sound effects editor, props master, set designer, these are undoubtedly important positions that can affect the quality of the film, so John must have some skilled professionals.

It's not that John looks down on these people that Nancy is worthy of, and it's not that the gods don't use it, but because John really can't afford to gamble, let alone lose.

If his film is waterloo and the $10 million invested is wasted, then he will no longer have the money to organize the filming of a movie in a short period of time.

Although he went to the bank to borrow hundreds of millions of dollars, the money could only be used for investment, not for filming, which had long been agreed with Morgan Sr.

So once John fails, he may have to really write songs and sell them to record companies to accumulate funds for the film. For a movie that is at least tens to millions of dollars, and a song that is only tens of thousands of dollars, he has to write at least a hundred songs to make it up, and by that time the daylilies will be cold.

Although some people say that a good meal is not afraid of being late, John prefers Zhang Ailing's sentence: Be famous as soon as possible.

So John can't fail, and he can't afford to fail, even if he has memories of the next few decades, he can't guarantee that these classic movies that he remakes will not be Waterloo.

The film industry is recognized as a high-risk industry, which is not only affected by personnel factors, but also by the factors of the times.

That's why the number of films in the world combined is far more on the streets than there are successful films, and there are many cases of companies going bankrupt because of the movies hitting the streets.

As for what caused the movie to hit the streets, no one could say that he was ugly until later generations, and even if he could analyze one or two truths, it was all an afterthought.

As a reborn, John has the advantage of naturally avoiding street movies, but he does not have the ability to guarantee the success of the film.

The only thing he can do is to make the film with meticulous craftsmanship and reduce the human shortcomings in the production process, so he has to build a skilled production team for himself.

After John finished reading the crew list, he looked at Nancy, who was drinking Blue Mountain coffee, and said, "Nancy, the lighting engineer, the prop master, and the sound editor, all three people have been replaced for me, and I will find some more professional people from the beginning!"

Nancy heard John say this, she was speechless for a while with coffee in her mouth, but she was a little puzzled, in order to make John not see that she had done anything with personnel, so she deliberately placed experienced professionals in the three positions of lighting engineer, prop master and sound editor. But what she didn't expect was that John actually left the rookies such as photographers and editors, and vetoed professionals such as lighting engineers and prop masters.

"Does John like rookies?" Nancy couldn't help but guess, if that's the case, it would be easy to do, there are not many Hollywood gods, but rookies are everywhere, and it won't be too easy to find three rookies for John.

Thinking of this, Nancy quickly swallowed the coffee in her mouth, looked at John and said, "Okay! Then I'll help you find it, but whether you can find it or not is not necessarily!"

"You go to find it, as long as the technology is passed, the salary is not a problem!" John is like a pure little white rabbit at the moment, naively thinking that Nancy has difficulties, and he also puts himself in Nancy's shoes, and does not hesitate to increase the salary of personnel, so that Nancy can go out to poach people.

Nancy on the side was a little moved by John's little white behavior, but this little touch didn't stay in her mind for long, and she quickly snuffed it out.
