1106 Faith

In a conference room at CAA's headquarters building in Los Angeles.

Edgar slowly spoke his advice: "We have partnered with Pan Am Entertainment to fully participate in the racing film that Pan Am is going to make, whether it's the director, the actors, or the financial stuff, we at CAA provide a full range of services. ”

Hearing Edgar's words, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but look surprised.

But no one contradicted his opinion, and even most of the faces nodded in agreement.

Perhaps Edgar's proposal seems like the CAA has put a lot of resources into it, but they understand that if it succeeds and Pan Am's racing movie is a huge success at the box office, then the CAA will have the richest slice of the pie.

CAA's bundled service, even if delicious, is poison.

After Edgar's proposal was agreed to by most of the people in the room, the meeting was almost over.

Maybe in their eyes, there is no need to mobilize everyone to gather everyone for the sake of Afra's signing with Oriental DreamWorks.

Rather than leave immediately after the meeting, Edgar was invited to his office by President Wayne.

"Edgar, I don't mind if you target Oriental DreamWorks, but I hope you can restrain your emotions and don't make things too big!" Wayne Marks looked at Edgar and said seriously, and when he got to the back, he hesitated for a moment and slowly reminded: "Don't use those methods on Oriental DreamWorks in the past, after all, the other party has a certain cooperative relationship with the high-level of the Ministry of Culture of China!"

Wayne's words were rather vague and vague.

But Edgar knew unusually well what the other party was trying to say.

Yes, maybe on the territory of Hollywood, CAA is completely handy against Oriental DreamWorks, and it doesn't take much effort at all.

With the resources controlled by CAA in Hollywood, let alone Oriental DreamWorks, even if it is a giant like Dimei, they will not be afraid at all, but no one will make things irreparable.

In Wayne's opinion, there was nothing wrong with Edgar's action against Oriental DreamWorks.

But to prevent the matter from expanding, the consequences are too serious, and it is bound to attract the attention of the Ministry of Culture and Commerce of China, and Yang Ming has a certain relationship with the Ministry of Culture of China, which is not a secret in the outside world.

If CAA really wants to attract the attention of the high-level officials of the Huaxia government because they are too ruthless with the Oriental DreamWorks, with their understanding of the Huaxia government, the matter will become big, and the other party will definitely retaliate.

Completely block all CAA's business in China.

In this way, it also means that the entire entertainment and cultural market in East Asia will close its doors to CAA.

You must know that East Asia is the world's largest economic market, radiating various industries, and cannot be ignored by CAA.

"Well, I see!" Edgar nodded with an unsightly look after understanding what Wayne meant.

Even if he is unhappy with Oriental DreamWorks in his heart, he will not do anything that affects the company's overall plan because of his own grievances in this kind of thing that is related to the company's development.

"How are you going to talk to Pan American Entertainment?" Seeing Edgar nod, Wayne couldn't help but relax and breathe a sigh of relief.

He knew how much Edgar didn't like that young genius in Huaxia, and he even wanted to ruin that genius's reputation.

Because Edgar is also one of the members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and he is also a core member, he naturally will not have a good impression of Yang Ming, who made the Oscar embarrassed at the beginning.

Speaking of which, Wayne was actually a member of the house, but he wasn't as enthusiastic about the house's affairs as Edgar.

In fact, Wayne could also guess a little bit about Edgar's inner thoughts.

It's true that Edgar couldn't swallow the big loss that the academy had suffered, but he also had another meaning by doing it, that is, to show people.

Wayne had a vague sense that Edgar might have a strong interest in the position of president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, otherwise he would not have so suddenly proposed to suppress Oriental DreamWorks in order to gain the support of the other members of the academy.

When the time comes, a large number of votes will be available for him to win the general election.

This is Wayne's intention to why Edgar is so enthusiastic about suppressing speculation against Oriental DreamWorks.

Although there is no confirmation, he estimates that eight or nine are not far from ten.

"Pan Am Entertainment?" Edgar snorted disdainfully when he heard Wayne mention the name, "If Bobble was still at Pan Am, he would definitely not have made such an irrational decision, and Corkley was completely overdrawing the wealth that Barber brought to Pan Amuse." ”

His tone was full of disdain for the Congressman Cockley.

And so it is.

In Hollywood, which is not a very big place, what happens inside every studio is not a secret to them.

When Corkeley used the power in his hands to completely drive Barber out of Pan American Entertainment, everyone in Hollywood felt incredible for Corkeley's brainless decision.

It's like looking for death.

The reality is exactly what everyone expected, after Bobble left Pan Am Entertainment, Pan Am's situation has been declining day by day, and there is no longer the upward momentum that Bobble maintained when he was there, and it is good to be able to stabilize now.

Moreover, the most important thing is that in the past two years, although the films shot by Pan American Entertainment have remained profitable as a whole, the performance of the blockbusters they focused on at the box office has been very weak, and there are even two or three blockbusters built with heavy money, which have failed miserably at the box office.

In this case, Pan American Entertainment decided to have a racing movie with the same theme because of Cokeley's selfishness, and it is obviously impossible to say that there is no Corkley's resentment towards Oriental DreamWorks.

It can be said that the culprit that has caused Pan American Entertainment to become more and more unbearable today is Corkley.

No wonder Edgar, the big guy in CAA, showed disdain for Corkley.

In fact, other Hollywood bigwigs almost have the same attitude towards Corkley, but he doesn't know Cockley himself.

"This time, in addition to the director and actors, I decided to use CAA's resources to tailor a script for Pan American Entertainment, and I don't have that much trust in Corkley. Edgar thought for a moment and continued.

"Well, okay, just do what you say. Wayne pondered for a moment and agreed to Edgar's proposal.

Anyway, the more CAA gives, the more affirmation it gets.

In addition, his heart couldn't help but relax, as long as Edgar limited his behavior against Oriental DreamWorks to the scope of film commercial competition, then the Huaxia government could not find any thorns in this regard, and there would be no excuse to stand up for Oriental DreamWorks.

As for Edgar's proposed plan, Wayne was confident.

In his mind, as long as CAA decides to support a movie, even if it is a bad movie, it will become a blockbuster, which is the self-confidence that CAA people have.

In Hollywood, no matter what happens, it will soon spread throughout the entertainment industry.

CAA's decision to join forces with Pan Am Entertainment to support Pan Am's racing film shoot program immediately spread throughout Hollywood.

Oriental DreamWorks Hollywood is located in the building.

Bobble and Afra are chatting in the office about Afra's comeback plans.

Although Afra's popularity has declined in the past two years because of CAA's ban, he still has a strong market appeal, but Barber is very stable, he thinks that there is a lot of uproar now because of Afra's termination of the contract, and even some media have dug up the inside story about CAA's ban on Afra, if there is no CAA Some people deliberately indulge, Barber definitely doesn't believe it.

The energy possessed by the CAA gang is all too clear to Barber, who has been in Hollywood for many years.

When he was at Pan Am Entertainment, he had a lot of dealings with these vampires.

"Mr. Bobble, I won't affect the development of Oriental DreamWorks in Hollywood because of my affairs, right?" said Afra with a slight frown, her perfect face, because of a hint of sorrow, but made people feel distressed.

However, Barber would not have any thoughts because of Afra's beauty, he smiled heartily when he heard this, and said lightly: "CAA may be an irresistible behemoth in the eyes of others, but the impact on Oriental DreamWorks is not as strong as you think, since we chose to cooperate with Afra in the first place, then such a result is naturally within our consideration!"

Bobble's words were full of a touch of domineering and arrogance!

If two years ago, he might not have had the slightest confidence to say such a thing, but now he has full capital to dare to say it to anyone.

Oriental DreamWorks is not afraid of anyone!

Yang Ming laid out earlier and quietly won most of the shares of AMC, the second largest cinema chain in the United States, and became the major shareholder of AMC.

It can be said that with AMC, Oriental DreamWorks has been invincible.

And he also knew that under Yang Ming's operation, his young boss was planning to acquire a local media with wide influence in the United States, once the acquisition was successful, then Oriental DreamWorks would have their own tongue in the United States.

Entertainment media, entertainment media!

Entertainment and media have always been inseparable.

When Afra heard Barber's words of confidence, her heart was like putting down a big stone, and she breathed a sigh of relief, her personality originally belonged to the kind of quiet and gentle, for fear that because of her own affairs, she would affect Oriental Dreamworks.

"But I heard that Pan Am Entertainment has the support of CAA, and the cast of that racing movie will be unprecedentedly strong, and it has been thought by many media that it will definitely surpass Yang Ming's racing movie!" Afra said a little uneasy.

Today, Hollywood suddenly broke the bombshell news about Pan American Entertainment's cooperation with CAA.

CAA will provide a bundle of services to Pan Am Entertainment to support Pan Am Entertainment's racing film project.

Whether it is an actor or a diva, as long as the film shooting is needed, CAA can help Pan American Entertainment to do it, and the director is also a big-name director under CAA, let Pan American Entertainment choose, in addition, if the investment is too large, then CAA can also let its actors only get a small amount of salary, and other salaries can be counted as film investment, and box office dividends will be paid at that time.

It can be said that CAA's service is completely linked to each other.

Barber has been in Hollywood for many years, and he is naturally very familiar with CAA's set, and even when he was at Pan American Entertainment, he dealt with these people a lot in order to involve CAA's artists during the filming of the movie.

When he heard Afra's worry, he couldn't help but smile dumbly, and then said to the queen in front of him easily: "Maybe you don't know Yang Ming yet, to be honest, with my life experience in Hollywood for more than 30 years, and my talent in film shooting, no one can surpass our young and excessively young boss!"

"To be honest, I don't know what Yang Ming's new film is like, but I'm sure this is definitely another movie that beats all the blockbusters in the same period!"

In the end, Bobble's expression couldn't help but move Afra, she even thought that the big man in front of her, who had a good reputation in Hollywood, had now completely become a believer in Yang Ming, and showed an extreme fanaticism for everything about Yang Ming.

Think Yang Ming is omnipotent!

At least in terms of movies, Barber doesn't think anyone can beat Yang Ming.

I don't know why, seeing Bobble like this, Afra thought of a song that Yang Ming wrote for herself, and after she decided to join Oriental DreamWorks, Yang Ming specially created a song for her to use when she came back.

It was this song that completely made her feel that making such a decision would be the most correct decision she had made in her life.

"Maybe add music, his talent in music, it's just amazing. Afra said thoughtfully.

"Haha, that's true. Bobble nodded in agreement and said with a hearty laugh.

After the two discussed the plan for a comeback, Afra took his leave and left.

After Afra and Bobble said goodbye, they took the elevator to the lower parking lot and got into a car.

"Sister Ciel, where are we going, are we going home?"

At this time, sitting in the driver's seat was Afra's former assistant Phyllis, and now that Afra is about to make a comeback, in the face of her invitation, Phyllis is naturally obligated to help Afra.

"Don't go home yet, I've been annoyed to death by those reporters these days, why don't we go for a beauty treatment and relax!" Afra said as she got into the car and heard Phyllis's words, rubbing her eyebrows.

"Okay!" Phyllis replied, although she and Afra are in a working relationship, but the two are like sisters, otherwise when Afra comes back, one of them doesn't want to, so they first think of asking Phyllis to come over to help her, and Phyllis received a call from Afra, so she immediately closed her small shop and returned to Afra's side thousands of miles away.

While driving, Phyllis asked Afra: "Sister Hill, I don't understand why you have to cooperate with Oriental DreamWorks when you come back, in my opinion, Oriental DreamWorks will be of limited help to you, it is better for you to set up a company by yourself and do it alone!"

Two or three months ago, Yang Ming and Afra reached a cooperation intention, and the first negotiation was between Phyllis and Barber, after two months of understanding, she has become very familiar with the information of Oriental DreamWorks.

Maybe this film company is okay in Huaxia, but its influence in the United States is too small.

Hearing Phyllis's words, Afra shook her head lightly and laughed, her eyes revealed a hint of brilliance, and said: "You haven't seen Yang Ming, he is a genius who can create miracles without listening to it, and can surprise people, I believe he can bring some different changes to my musical life!"
