By the time Theolod returned to Los Angeles, Marshall had already taken care of everything.

He had spoken to Theorod on his way back to London in Manchester, Marshall had already figured out Theorod's character, and knew that he could not change his decision, and the dedicated agent did not waste his words too much, he assured Theorod that he would leave this matter to me, and hung up the phone, thinking about ways to maximize the benefits.

Before Theolod returned to the United States, he had a three-hour telephone conversation with Warner producer Jove Arberly and Lord Webb, the godfather of The Phantom of the Opera, and it turned out that the years of hard work were still fruitful, and finally he finalized Theorod with a base salary of $10 million plus a 17.5% film revenue share, finalizing Theorrod's first salary after becoming an actor.

In this era of first-line superstar salaries of 20 million US dollars plus a starting price, the form of 10 million plus a share of the salary is a bit chilly for a hot actor, but it must be noted that this 17.5% share is not a film revenue share, not a net income share, but a film revenue share, not the kind of film budget expenses and various peripheral income.

This means that after the movie is released, for every movie ticket sold, every DVD sold, every sound album sold, and every official merchandise related to the movie sold, 17.5% of it will go into Theorod's pocket. To use a more intuitive analogy, if the total box office of "The Phantom of the Opera" is 100 million US dollars, then Theolod will get a share of 17.5 million at that time, not counting other peripheral products.

However, as a box office guarantee, and now on the throne of the actor, how can the movie starring Theolod only get 100 million at the global box office? Even if "The Phantom of the Opera" is not a popular popcorn movie, Marshall has the confidence to be sure that the global box office will definitely start at 300 million.

Aside from the rest, Prada has taken the initiative to renew his contract with him for three years, and the invitations to various fashion magazines are one after another.

After hearing about his salary, Theolod was silent for a moment, and smiled helplessly: "You are really a vampire." ”

'Why am I a vampire? I didn't suck blood for you kid, my price is already very low, after all, the revue is not a popular film, and the basic salary of 10 million is a hurdle, it is a symbol of your status, I can't give them any more low. Marshall, on the other end of the line, felt very innocent.

Don't talk about me, if you hear how we bargain, you're sure to find out that those two producers are the most picky, they all jumped out of the phone and grabbed me by the collar and yelled for the 0.5% share, and the shrews scolded the street softer than them, and it took more than two hours to get 17.5%. You know, their stance is scarier than my girlfriend who even wants to cut the price. ’

I'll write it down and tell Amanda. ”

"Hey, little rabbit, don't make trouble, she just had a fight with me recently, I haven't been able to climb into her bed for a week, you blow the wind in your ears again, do you want to ruin the happiness of the second half of your life as a tired agent who is a cow for you? Seriously, it's up to you now, if the global box office can break 300 million in the end, then this ticket will make a lot of money! Vocal teacher I have already found it for you, I will send you his phone number now, and he will take the initiative to contact you in three days." ’

"Okay, what about the script?"

"Don't worry about this, Weber said that you have a good foundation but still need to practice more, and he said that you have to learn vocal music for at least half a year before you can play his phantom." But don't take it too seriously, he's just saying this to drive down the price, and I'm sure you'll know how arrogant this guy is when he meets him in London. You'll probably get the script at the beginning of May, and now, even the heroine is waiting. Speaking of which, do you want to know who your Christine is?'

"I don't want to. ”

‘…… Well, from the news I received, it seems that it is a newcomer who only started acting last year, auditioned, and I heard that he has just turned 18 years old. I don't know how she impressed the casting director, but I just hope they don't find such newcomers to play with you just to cut costs. ’

Marshall's complaint made Theolod helplessly hook the corners of his mouth: "Oh my Mr. Upton, think about your phantom, didn't he also come out of the audition at the beginning? Maybe Richard Gere's agent complained to him like this at the beginning." ”

'It's different,' Marshall sighed, "Forget it, don't mention that, the most important thing for you now is to practice your voice." ’

"It's nature. ”

Of course—you have a long rest anyway—and if you want to go out with women, sex, friends, or friends, I won't say anything. ’

“…… What?" Marshall's words made Theorod chuckle in his heart, and he instinctively moved to the window.

'Don't play dumb with me, you know what I mean, you're twenty-two now, I'm your agent, Theo, you have to trust me to be on your side all along, I mean, if you have any secret lover right now, you can tell me boldly. Seriously, it's time, you should go and have a good relationship, those media don't eat your dedicated workaholic statement, and don't you think it's lonely for you to be alone in a lonely villa every day? ’

"I know, but I'm not without ......"

"Don't tell me you don't have time, I know you have a lot of time, don't tell me you don't have a partner, if you really don't have a girlfriend, I can introduce you to a few celebrity parties, and your female friends who have had a brief scandal before are not bad." Listen to me, man, from a psychological point of view, you also need an emotional sustenance and reliance, you know what I mean. ’

"I understand, Marshall, you have to believe me, I just haven't ...... yet"

"Good weekend, what is unappetizing, Marshall, Theo's time today has been taken up by Lao Tzu, he doesn't have time to talk nonsense with you, if you want him to find a partner, you treat his object as me, goodbye. ”

Before Theolod could finish his words, the phone was snatched by Nattel, who was sitting next to him wearing sunglasses and a cap, and he yelled angrily at Marshall on the other end of the phone, and hung up the phone without saying a word.

Marshall stared at the microphone in a daze for a long time before he dropped the microphone in anger. Damn Nattel, doesn't he know that you're in bad friendship with Theorod? Can this fucking be the same as a partner's relationship? Hell, how could such a good kid of Theorod be friends with this rude bastard, this is the question that Marshall couldn't figure out.

“…… Na......"

"Don't say anything, they're here. ”

“……”

Theolod glanced at Coria who was waving to this side outside the car, so he had to choose to be silent, took the initiative to get out of the car, opened his arms to meet his grandmother, hugged her with a full embrace, kissed her cheek, expressed his lovesickness, and then gently hugged Coria.

What the hell was he talking about? When Theolod got out of the car, Natel slammed his forehead into the steering wheel, he was just angry, what the fuck he embarrassed again. Thinking of Theolod's strange expression just now, Natel's heart was particularly irritable, and he slowed down for a while before he would get out of the car.

Today, I made an appointment to go shopping with my family, and Theolod was going to buy Maggie a bunch of seasonal clothes and daily necessities, so he couldn't mess it up...... Let's keep cooling......

As soon as Natel put on a serious face for himself, when he got out of the car, he saw his sister who was dressed extremely hot before summer, and he was not good for a moment. I have to say that the eighteenth change of the female college has changed, I haven't seen her for half a year, Coria looks a lot more beautiful, her high ponytail looks young and lively, she was originally a beauty embryo, and at the moment she is wearing makeup, and the whole person is clearly ready to hook up with whom.

"Huh, brother, your face is so red, is it a cold and fever?" Colya, who didn't dare to hold hands with Theolod and only dared to follow him closely, noticed Natl standing next to the car, and blinked unexpectedly.

"Shut up, it's just too hot, get in the car, what are you doing with the pestle?And don't stick to your idol so closely, don't make me trouble, don't you think you get into a lot of trouble at school?" ”

"Why do you accuse me, you guy with tattoos all over my body, everyone wears it like this at school, I'm popular, those boys say I'm good-looking!"

"You put away some snacks, if Theo dares to take a fancy to you, I'll kick him in the ass, and besides, I don't know how much I can help you solve with those kids in your school who don't have any hair, what do they know? ”

"You don't have to tell me about your previous promiscuity!"

"You stinky girl, aren't you?" Although Theolod knew all the bad things he had done in the past, including himself, but now when his "ill-intentioned" sister mentioned it, Natle instinctively scrambled his steps, and he walked up to Coria in annoyance, and Coria saw this, and immediately hid behind Maggie.

"Alright, Nat, who hasn't had a rebellious period?" Theolodra grabbed Nattel's arm in front of him, "We've all had that time. ”

Nattel's face turned red all of a sudden: "That... That's just ......"

"When she matures and goes through something, she will always understand, just like us. It's hard for you to see your sister, Helen has her own job, and it's time for you to do your brother's duty, don't be angry with the child. She's going to college soon, and you'll see each other less often. ”

"That's right, girls are dressed up in a trendy way now, and they all love to be beautiful. Maggie was also on hand to help persuade her.

Who knew that Theorod changed his words again and retorted: "No, grandma, you are wrong, they are just imitating." Corlia, you are beautiful, really, you are indeed attractive to men, but this attraction is too popular, I think I, as your brother, also have an obligation to help you show your own charm. Even if you don't believe in Nattle's tough-guy aesthetic in black, you have to believe in my fashion eye. ”

Corlea's nod was so fast that Natl didn't know whether to worry about his sister's elbow turning out, or whether he should be relieved of the harmony of his future sister-in-law......

And...... Theolod was carrying private goods just now, and by the way, he disliked his dressing aesthetics?

In short, Theorod, who accompanied Maggie and Corlia to go shopping and shopping on this day, and by the way, as a fashion consultant for the two ladies, an old man and a young lady, still contributed a lot of street photos to the paparazzi, and when Natel received the clothes that Theorod "casually" threw at him while the two ladies were changing, he finally confirmed that Theorod was indeed very vaguely disgusted with his 10,000-year-old dark wardrobe.

Three days later, Theolod received his next vocal teacher, Robert Eastwood, a middle-aged man with a big beard and a smile in his eyes, at his villa. It is said that this teacher graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in England and was introduced by Weber. After a short contact with him, the other party's gentle personality and clear way of doing things made Theorod very satisfied, and he agreed to start training the next day.

A month later, Theolod received another notice from Marshall, and director Schumacher invited him to the final audition for Christine's role. When an actor's influence is big enough, he is also qualified to participate in the decision of his partner, in the previous life, Theolod had experienced many such "special" auditions, and sometimes he used his power to ask the filmmaker to designate the actors he admired, but he did not expect the "privilege" of this life to come so early.

Theolod thought about it and decided to go and see his "Christine". 166 Reading Network
