The second one is sent, thank you to the sage of the book, the sky god wings, and the book maniac three great rewards!

"Participate in the investment?" Chen Tian looked directly at Julia Roberts, trying to find an answer from her expression.
The 36-year-old Julia Roberts has more of an irresistible mature charm than when she was younger, and smiled at Chen Tian's gaze: "Yes, participate in investment." ”
Aside from Julia Roberts' aggressive eyes, "Can you give me a reason to accept? other than the reason why I accepted and allowed Emma to play." ”
Chen Tian thought and analyzed very calmly, although Julia Roberts and Lionsgate are both investments, they are not the same concept, which Chen Tian is very clear.
Lionsgate means that he is a Lionsgate-paid worker, and Julia Roberts is a collaborator.
"Justin, let's talk about a more realistic question, do you have enough funds to ensure that this drama can be successfully started and completed?
And I can give you the opportunity that I'm not Lionsgate or any other company and I'm going to be in a collaborator relationship.
At the same time, I believe that my network should be much better than yours, and I can help you find a better distribution channel than Lionsgate, and at the same time be able to fight for greater rights for you. ”
Chen Tian didn't speak but listened quietly, and Emma Roberts, who was next to Julia Roberts, obviously didn't understand what her aunt was saying.
Seeing Chen Tian looking at her, little Emma Roberts secretly stuck out her tongue at Chen Tian and made a grimace.
"Justin, do you think I'm right, I think it's a win-win situation for the two of us to work together, and I'm much better than those capitalists, I won't interfere with you, you have absolute autonomy. Julia Roberts smiled.
If it was before, Chen Tian might have accepted it, but Wen Ziren's words last time made Chen Tian completely dispel this idea, and holding the initiative in his own hands is the most important thing.
Julia Roberts completely miscalculated Chen Tian, he didn't expect Chen Tian to sign a sharing contract with Lionsgate, so she proposed to participate in the investment with the idea of being able to make money.
"I know your kindness, if I really need it, I think I will definitely trouble you, but at the moment I can come up with 8 million, so ......"
"I understand what you mean, it's a pity, if we have the opportunity next time, I think we can still work together, as a senior, I'm very happy to see a newcomer like you rise. ”
Julia Roberts deserves to be the one who won the Oscar for Best Actress, and the trace of displeasure on her face disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"So, Emma......"
"Emma has no problem, as her aunt and guardian, I want to know how much you are going to pay her, I know that Scarlett Johansson is buried alive with zero pay. ”
"I won't let Emma play for zero pay, don't worry, but I don't know what Emma's salary is?"
Chen Tian doesn't know much about the price of child stars, and Emma Roberts has just debuted, of course, her fame is a factor that has to be considered.
It is estimated that it should be able to be done for $300,000, and it should not exceed $500,000 at most.
"Emma doesn't need to be paid. ”
"Don't need to be paid?"
Chen Tian thought that his ears were hallucinating, and he heard her say that she wanted to be paid at first, but how did it turn into zero in a blink of an eye.
"Emma starred in zero pay, but I hope she gets a box office dividend. ”
"Box office dividends?"
Chen Tian really wants to slap the table and leave, even though Emma Roberts is currently quite famous, but it is not where her strength lies.
Although Emma Roberts once became another national girl idol after Lindsay Lohan two or three years later, this is all later, and now Emma Roberts is only Julia Roberts's adopted daughter and niece.
"We are asking for 3% of global net income. Julia Roberts didn't wait for Chen Tian to speak, and continued, "Including the original soundtrack and DVD revenue, I will help you promote it." ”
"Julia, although I'm just a guy who has just debuted, I know a little bit about it, do you think such a request is reasonable? Emma is famous, but definitely not in a position where she can have the privilege of sharing the box office.
Even without you, I think the media will be happy to help promote the film, so ......" Chen Tian shrugged, "I sincerely want to invite Emma to appear in my film, and I really hope that you will seriously consider it and give a condition that is acceptable to both of us." ”
"OK, I'll seriously consider it, if you have a good proposal you can always come to me, this is my personal number. ”
Julia Roberts handed Chen Tian a number, still smiling gracefully.
Chen Tian stood at the door of the café, looking up at the starry sky, if he was a well-known director at the moment, he believed that Julia Roberts would never make such an almost unreasonable request.
The thought that the collaboration with Emma Roberts might well have come to an end was filled with excitement.
If Emma Roberts can't be cast, then he needs to find the next little girl who is suitable to play Oliver.
"Mannie, Damiani has sent Venice red carpet jewelry, you can take a look. Melanie Sloan knocked on the door and said.
"Mom, I'll be right here. Scarlett squeezed her mask and headed for the door.
"Sister, those jewels are so beautiful that you will definitely make them even more beautiful when you wear them. Christan Sloan said, pointing to the computer screen.
"Christian, do you often use this trick against little girls. Scarlett smiled and pinched her brother's face.
The jewelry patterns on the computer screen are indeed beautiful, and there is no woman who doesn't love jewelry, and Scarlett is no exception.
"Mom, what do you think of this?" Scarlett pointed to a sapphire necklace.
"It's great, I would have liked it with a low-cut white dress. Melanie Sloan said with a smile.
"Sister, your phone seems to be ringing, do you want me to bring it for you?"
Just as she was about to say yes, Scarlett immediately realized what if Chen Tian called her.
She knew that his younger brother was eccentric, and he might answer the phone on his own initiative.
"Mom, I'll come right over. ”
Scarlett immediately stood up and walked to her room, where the cell phone seemed to ring unusually quickly.
"Mom, I don't feel like my sister is normal. Christian peeked at it, then whispered.
Even a ten-year-old can see it, let alone Melanie Sloan.
"Mom, I don't need your pay, free Christian is there for you. Without waiting for Melanie Sloane to agree, Christian immediately crept towards Scarlett's room.
The pulsing contacts on the mobile phone screen made Scarlett feel a little depressed, and the joy in her heart seemed to slip away from the bottom of her heart in an instant.
"Rosie ......"
Scarlett was just talking when she was interrupted by Rosie Andrea on the other end of the phone: "Mannie, something is wrong, something is wrong." ”
"What's wrong?" Scarlett didn't understand what Rosie was talking about, but Rosie's tone didn't feel like a joke at all.
"You and Justin Chan left a CD, and now the CD owner has approached me, and he's asking us to come up with $3 million or release it.
What exactly did you leave behind, and when, damn it, it's been more than a month!" Rosie Andrea couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
She thought that the incident had disappeared, but she didn't expect it to be brought up again after more than a month, and it was a bombshell.
"Discs?"
She had no impression of this at all, and at this moment, the whole person subconsciously thought that it would be a crazy record for her and Chen Tian, if that was the case, she didn't dare to imagine it at all.
