After watching the little demons and the RCA company, John and Dani went home and boarded the plane back to Los Angeles.

At the same time that John and Dani flew to Los Angeles, CAA's Michael Ovitz was informed by assistant Waitis Albert that RCA Records would continue to work on recording movie songs for "Stealing Love."

Michael Ovitz was surprised by the news, and he would never have believed it if his assistant hadn't told him, because the RCA had never been so resistant.

Unable to figure it out, Michael Ovitz decided to call Tom Hansen to find out what had caused RCA to join ICM.

"Hey, is that President Tom Henson? I'm Michael Ovitz. Michael Ovitz said into the phone.

Tom Hansen on the other end of the phone suddenly turned cold when he heard the voice of Michael Ovitz. "I'm President Ovitz, what's the matter?"

"President Hansen, I heard that RCA has started recording songs for "Stealing Love" again? Didn't we say okay, you stop recording songs for them, will CAA introduce you to a few more potential singers?" Michael Ovitz was upset, but his tone tried to remain calm, because Tom Hangsen was not his subordinate after all.

"Hehe......" Tom Henson sneered at the hearing of Michael Ovitz's words.

If it weren't for Michael Ovitz, would he have stupidly stopped his boss's movie songs?

As soon as he thought about this, Tom Hansen's tone became cold: "President Ovitz, you don't need you to dictate how RCA does things, you just need to take care of CAA yourself." As for the agreement we made before, everything is now null and void. ”

Michael Ovitz blushed when he heard Tom Hansen's words, and Tom Hansen's words made him very uncomfortable.

"Since the soft ones don't work, the hard ones come to the hard ones," Michael Ovitz then said into the phone: "President Hansen! You are so untrustworthy, so how will CAA cooperate with RCA in the future?" How can I trust you RCA artists from CAA?"

Michael Ovitz believes that Tom Henson will definitely bow his head when he hears his threat, RCA will go to CAA every year to select some preparatory singers to cultivate, if he cuts off RCA's connections, then where will RCA find potential singers in the future, and in the end he can only be green and yellow, or survive.

Just as Michael Ovitz was proudly waiting for Tom Hansen to bow his head, Tom Hansen sneered again: "Hehe...... In addition to CAA, there are also ICM and WMA in the entertainment industry. Even if there are no suitable people in the two companies, then RCA is not short of money, it can be smashed with money, 1 million is not good, 10 million, I don't believe that no one will come to RCA Records. ”

Tom Henson's words made Michael Ovitz completely angry, but before he could open his mouth to roar, Tom Henson's words came again: "President Ovitz! And I think you threatened the wrong person, and even more so the wrong company, RCA's parent company is General Electric." A company with an annual turnover of only 1.8 billion actually threatens a company with a turnover of more than 50 billion US dollars, I really don't know where you have the confidence. I advise you to get acquainted with each other, otherwise you won't even ......have a place to live when the CAA is forcibly acquired that day. Tom Henson hung up the phone with a snap. It is clear that he relayed what John had told him to Michael Ovitz.

"fuckyou......" Michael Ovitz froze for a moment, and when he realized that Tom Hansen had really hung up his phone, he scolded, and then smashed the phone to pieces.

Tom Hansen became the second person not to take him seriously, and the first was John. He knew very well that he could ban John, but he definitely couldn't show his teeth at RCA Records. Tom Hansen's words are hard to hear, but they are true, and GE is a behemoth, and it is definitely not someone he can provoke.

So Michael Ovitz has no choice but to vent on the phone.

Michael Ovitz, who had calmed down, looked at his assistant Winston Glum and said, "Get me a new call." ”

After the RCA affair, Michael Ovitz decided to call Sony, Paramount, Miramax...... Several film companies asked them to come out to meet and consolidate the agreement, and he didn't want the big film companies to ......be like RCA Records when the time came.

..............................

As time passed, the post-production of "Stealing Love" has been completed, and Nancy has sent the finished film to the MPAA for review. Since there are no violent and bloody scenes in the film, it naturally got a G rating.

Founded in 1922 as a trading organization for the film industry, the MPAA was not until its later years, when it was graded mainly for theatrical films and television home photography.

Its main members are the chairmen and presidents of seven film and television media giants in the United States, namely The Walt Disney Company, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Universal Pictures, and Warner Bros.

Its emergence replaced the strict "Hays Code" with a classification system, which led the United States to a more relaxed film censorship, which greatly promoted the development of films.

The classification of MPAA is mainly divided into five levels, namely G, PG, PG-13, R, and NC-17.

And "Stealing Love" officially belongs to the G level, which is suitable for audiences of all ages to watch, and there is no limit.

After the movie is classified, it cannot be released yet, and it must be handed over to the insurance company for insurance first.

The film market in the United States is already complete enough, not only with perfect production, distribution, but also with the protection of insurance companies.

A film will go through a second insurance, the first time is before the film is made, mainly to ensure that the film can be successfully produced. If during this period, the investor withdraws or the producer is unable to complete the production due to excessive overfunding, then the insurance company will intervene to help the film successfully complete the production, of course, this help is not free, and the insurance company will automatically accept the responsible party's share of the film.

With the involvement of insurance companies, there will be no kidnapping of investors by producers or kidnapping of producers by investors.

The second insurance is mainly to review the copyright involved in the movie, Lao Mei's law is very strict, if it involves infringement, it means that a large amount of compensation will be paid, which can reach tens of millions of dollars in many times, so in order to avoid this kind of thing, before the movie is released, an insurance will be put out for the movie.

The insurance company mainly reviews the portrait rights of all faceless characters in the movie, the copyright of the TV program footage filmed in the movie, and the copyright of the interlude...... Wait a minute.

Especially for street films, the review is very strict, and one face has an authorization letter, and one less will be returned. What is particularly interesting is that there are two kinds of programs that do not need to pay royalties to the TV station for the pictures of TV programs filmed in the movie, one is weather forecasting and the other is news. Because Lao Mei believes that the copyright of these two programs belongs to God, no one has the right to collect copyright fees.
