It didn't take long for Johnny Depp, dressed in a black suit, to appear outside the café, cross the green belt on the side of the road, and after pulling open a glass door, he walked into the café and saw the person who had asked him out in the corner.

"Hello Mr. Michael Ovitz and Mr. Harvey Wienstein, I'm late. Johnny Depp said as he pulled out his chair and sat down. He received a call from Harvey Wienstein yesterday, saying that he had something to discuss with him, and he didn't understand what the Miramax film boss was looking for him, but he was a little surprised to see Michael Owitz also there.

"It's okay, we've just arrived. Harvey Wienstein asked with a smile. "Drink something?"

"Coffee was good. Johnny Depp said and ordered a cup of coffee.

After the waiter brought the coffee to the table and left, Harvey Wienstein said anew. "I've asked you to come today because I want to ask for your help. ”

"Please, I'll help if I can. Johnny Depp took a sip of his coffee. His meaning is very clear, those who can help will help, and those who can't help will not help.

"You can help with that!" said Michael Ovitz with a smile. "I'm not going to go around in circles with you, it's no secret in Hollywood that I have some conflicts with John Criss, and I recently heard that your girlfriend Winona Ryder is preparing to play the heroine of his new film Forrest Gump, so I ....... ”

"So you're going to ask me to convince Winona Ryder not to play in John Chris Deng's new film?" asked Johnny Depp, taking over Michael Owitz.

"No, no, no......" Michael Ovitz shook his hand. "I wanted you to break up with Winona Ryder while she was filming Forrest Gump. ”

"What?" Johnny Depp was shocked when he heard this, as a smart person, he naturally knew why Michael Ovitz wanted him to break up with Winona Ryder filming "Forrest Gump".

Winona Ryder is a person who values feelings more, or a person who is full of fantasies about love, if he proposes to break up when Winona Ryder is filming "Forrest Gump", then the consequences do not need to be thought about, Winona Ryder will definitely be affected, and even collapse and finally lead to the breaking of the contract.

You must know that Winona Ryder's salary in "Forrest Gump" is $6.5 million, and if the contract is broken, it must pay 3 times the liquidated damages of $19.5 million, which is just one of the many compensations, such as if the film starts shooting, it also needs to compensate the crew for the expenses and the wear and tear of the filming equipment, as well as the corresponding publicity costs...... Wait a minute.

It can be said that if he proposed to break up when Winona Ryder was filming "Forrest Gump", causing Winona Ryder to finally break the contract, Winona Ryder will face at least $20 million in compensation.

Although the passion has been lost with Winona Ryder, Johnny Depp believes that the two have loved each other after all, and there is no need to let each other face such a big loss.

But just as he was about to refuse, Michael Ovitz pushed a folder that had already been prepared in front of him.

"What is this?" asked Johnny Depp, pointing to the current folder.

"Just look at it. Michael Ovitz replied.

Johnny Depp opened the folder and found that it was a standard broker contract. Looking at the terms one by one, Johnny Depp became more and more excited.

The contract in his hand is a contract prepared by CAA for first-line superstars, which details the rights and benefits that the signatories should enjoy, for example, the agency fee signed by a general star and CAA is 15%, but the agency fee signed with a superstar is only 5%, and there is a gap of up to 10% between the two.

And more importantly, CAA's support for superstars, no matter how big a brokerage company is, its resources are limited after all, and superstars can enjoy these resources first, and other stars can only eat their leftovers.

So this contract is very tempting for Johnny Depp, especially for an actor like him who is struggling in the third line, if there are these resources, Johnny Depp believes that he will enter the second-tier actor industry in a few years, and then he can't try to hit the first line, if he becomes a first-line superstar, then .......

Johnny Depp didn't dare to imagine it, it was already very good for him to be able to rush to the top of the second line, as for the first-line superstars, it was really unthinkable, in Hollywood, a star-studded place where there is no shortage of geniuses, real first-line superstars can be counted on one hand, and men and women add up to less than two hands.

So if you want to stand out from more than 100,000 people and become one of the few first-line superstars, in addition to acting skills, you don't have to think about it if you don't have resource support, just the little golden man at the Oscars is enough for a person to work hard for a lifetime, not to mention the appeal at the box office.

Just when Johnny Depp was thinking about his future development, Michael Ovitz on the side dropped another bombshell.

As long as you break up during Winona Ryder's filming Forrest Gump, then I can assure you that Harvey Wihenstein and I will devote all our resources to propelling you to the position of A-list superstar. ”

Hearing Michael Ovitz's words, Johnny Depp already knew how to choose, suppressed his excitement, and looked at Michael Ovitz with a calm face. "Winona Ryder and I will break up because there is no passion between us, not because of the terms you offered, love is priceless to me. ”

Johnny Depp said as he stood up and looked at Michael Ovitz and Harvey Wienstein. "I'll leave first if I have something to do in the afternoon. As he spoke, he walked towards the door, and there was an extra folder in his hand than before he came, and the folder naturally contained the contract that Michael Ovitz had shown him, and this contract had been signed by Michael Ovitz, and he only needed to sign his name to take effect.

Harvey Wienstein on the side looked at Johnny Depp's back with contempt in his eyes, and even couldn't help but laugh at it, he saw too many duplicitous people in Hollywood.

On the other side, Michael Ovitz took out a miniature recording device from his pocket, and turned it off with a light touch of his index finger before he smiled playfully. "This young man is smarter than we thought. ”

Michael Ovitz originally planned to record what he said when he met Johnny Depp so that he could blackmail Johnny Depp in the future, but he didn't expect this young actor to be a little smart, and he didn't leave any tricks in the conversation.
