Andre Hamilton pushed open the door of the apartment, looked back in surprise, and said loudly, "Lan Li, you didn't lock the door? Didn't you say that someone only broke in last week?

Walking into the room, Andre saw Andy and Matthew's respectful expressions, which made Andre's expression pause slightly, slowly turned his head, and then saw Lan Li's calm face, he couldn't help blinking, faintly straightened his waist, and still said in his own way, "What, if you are allowed to be stupid, you are not allowed to complain?"

Andre knew that Lan Li was a joke person.

Despite this, André avoided his gaze and went straight into the room, sat down on Matthew's right hand, and began to look for glasses and red wine on his own, "What are you guys discussing, go on, and leave me alone." ”

A smile appeared in Lan Li's eyes, and he looked at Andy again, continuing the topic just now.

"You mean, in fact, there is already a list within the company, but you are not sure what I think, you are worried that your choice will be shot by me, but it is easy to create chaos, it is better to understand my thoughts in advance, and then the senior brokers within the company can grab the benefits in advance, right?"

The overall management system of the innovative artist agency is unique in Hollywood: resource sharing and equal benefit sharing, that is, the company's resources are fully open to all artists, and the company's profits are shared by all agents. Such a unique operating model has firmly occupied the top spot in the industry.

But the success of such a model has historical causes, and cannot be replicated or imitated. Michael Ovitz, who had personally created such a model and led the company to the top, left the innovative artist agency and after failing to succeed in the position of president of Disney, he founded another small agency on his own, starting from scratch again, but also failed to succeed.

Although it is resource sharing and equal sharing of interests, people's hearts are biased, and every agent hopes that actors who are closer to him can get more opportunities.

"Jurassic Park" is such an opportunity, Steven Spielberg as the producer, Lan Li Hall as the leading actor, before the start of filming has been destined to be a major project, although within the innovative artist agency, the opportunity is shared, and every actor under it has the qualifications to be shortlisted for the competition, but the agents still show their talents across the sea, looking forward to their actors and even directors can be appreciated by Lan Li.

Even Andy has become a fragrant bun.

Lan Li directly punctured Andy's intentions in this way, Andy was not angry, his right hand was still holding red wine, and his left hand was still on the beer belly, "Since you know my situation, then it is better to reveal a little rumor, so that I can take the opportunity to show off." You know, even when actors come to the company, they come to say hello to me and bring me coffee. ”

"Huh. Just a cup of coffee?" said Andre meaningfully, sitting next to him.

Andy pursed the corners of his lips, a smile appeared in his eyes, no affirmation but no denial.

Lan Li also chuckled, "You can tell them what actors they want to recommend, and list them all, and my acceptance is very wide." ”

This meaningful sentence made Andy roll his eyes directly, "Do you expect them to believe it?"

"I'm seriously answering questions, they don't believe it, and I can't do anything about it. Lan Li shrugged his shoulders and expressed his helplessness.

Lan Li is serious.

Of course, he can recommend the cast and produce the cast based on the final performance version of the previous life, which is very easy. Rather than going with the flow, why not go with the flow of the right person? After all, history has changed the trajectory now, just as the entire lineup of Edge of Tomorrow has changed.

So, Lanli is indeed open to all possibilities now.

Andre raised his glass, "What are you trying to convince them? You should tell them that if you don't want to believe Lan Li, then there should be no need to believe you, you are Lan Li's agent, they need to look at your face, not the other way around." ”

The tone of course is still condescending and domineering, but if you think about it seriously, it actually makes some sense.

Then Andre continued, "Since there is no standard for Lan Li, isn't it up to you to set the standard? You can choose the list of actors according to your own proximity, or enjoy benefits; anyway, when the time comes, it is Lan Li who will refuse and make the final decision, and the black pot will be thrown to him." ”

Andy and Matthew both cast their gazes at Andre, and although there were no special expressions and special words, the meaning could not be more obvious: Black and blue salute in person, are you sure it doesn't matter?

Andre straightened his waist and said generously, "Lan Li is a demon, and he never minds. Those kind people were deceived by his appearance, we are doing good deeds and doing good deeds, let them see Lan Li's true face, and then they know that this person must not be teased casually in the future, right?"

"So have you ever wondered why you're still alive and kicking now?" Lan Li said with a calm face.

"......" Andre met Lan Li's restrained gaze, blinked, then pretended not to hear, lowered his head and took a sip of red wine, and then said to Andy, "I'm just a suggestion, just a suggestion." It's up to you to decide how to do it and how it will be executed. ”

That pretended to be calm and calm, it really made people laugh.

Slowly, Lan Li turned his attention to Andy again, and said with a smile, "Just tell them that I don't have time for the time being, and there is more important work that needs to be completed first." Lan Li gestured with his eyes to the script on the table, "Whether it is a 'Jurassic Park' or these are important, I believe it is not difficult to make a judgment." ”

If Sisyphus Pictures officially starts mass-producing films, then innovative artist agencies will inevitably be the first to benefit, and a lot of job opportunities are in front of them.

Andy understood, and the jaw head agreed.

Andre also turned his gaze back at this time, and joined the discussion topic freely, "Is there any progress on the project now? I had a drink with Eton last night, and he felt that we can go both ways, some projects can be put into production first, and the development plan of the streaming platform can be put aside for the time being, and the cooperation with Sony Classics can still be carried out normally, and Disney will also pick two from the projects we produce, right?"

Lan Li nodded in agreement.

Creating a streaming platform isn't something that can be done in a day or two, but Sisyphus Pictures' filmmaking department can get to work, and after "Burst Drummer" and "Nightcrawler", their collaboration with Sony Classics has gradually found its way out, and now it is well placed to move on to the next stage of original content production.

"There are so many projects that I'm still choosing, but I've made a list ......"

Halfway through Lan Li's speech, Andre interjected, "There is also a list here?"

Be quiet.

Totally quiet.

Andre didn't seem to know that he had told a bad joke, and looked at Lan Li with a calm face, and then saw Lan Li gently bowing his head, "Yes, there is also a list here, and I still have a supermarket shopping list written by Matthew on my refrigerator, otherwise, after our meeting here, you will go to the supermarket?"

"I don't think so. The young Hamilton in front of him has never gone to the supermarket to shop in his life, "I don't think I fit well with the supermarket's personality." ”

"Then we're still focusing on the list in front of us, what do you think?" Lan Li's calm words made people feel a creepy sense of horror, and Andre couldn't help but cast his gaze towards Matthew, "What's wrong with him today?"

"You can try reading for eight hours a day and go on for a month. Matthew said calmly.

Andrei shivered directly, "Then I'd rather choose death." ”

"So, can we discuss this list now?" Lan Li's voice made Andre quickly retract his gaze, and involuntarily sat up straight, just like a well-behaved elementary school student, he no longer had the demeanor he had just had, and sat upright to show that his attention was highly concentrated.

Lan Li handed the list on the table to Andre, "I didn't count it carefully, how many works have been calculated now, and I just added one when I saw one." But I've made some simple annotations at the end, remember our poetry notes from high school? That's how I recorded them, and you can make a simple judgment and decide what to put into production. ”

Andy also sat up straight and leaned over.

It was a white letterhead, entirely handwritten, with the names of the projects neatly arranged in a neat row on the left, and the vowels and numbers on the right, which were obvious to those who understood them, and wordless to the uninitiated. But what is certain is that the neat and beautiful font does have the texture of British poetry, and it seems that it has nothing to do with film and television.

"The first and second pages are movies, and the third page is TV series. Lan Li then explained, "Also, have you considered making an animated series like 'The Simpsons,' 'Family Guy,' or the kind of ......Japanese anime?"

The production process of animated series is relatively less cumbersome, the investment cost is relatively easy to save, and of course, the audience is narrower and more difficult to succeed.

Andre shook his head and said no, "Lan Li, we're too busy right now, and we don't have time to acquire or adapt the rights to the comics. What's more, our capital chain can't keep up. Let's focus on this list first, which is more practical. ”

In the face of Andre's categorical cut, Lan Li didn't say anything, pursed the corners of his mouth, and then nodded to show that he understood: it seems that the cake he spread seems to be a little too big.
