"Jim. M.LWxS520.com Mobile," Jenny pulled out her phone and looked at the time, with a hint of urgency in her tone, "It's not a difficult decision to make, and you've been thinking about it for half an hour - don't tell me you need Cesare to teach you even to fight for your own interests." ”

Jim grimaced with a wry smile, "If Cesare hadn't scared me when you said this, I'd be more relaxed, wouldn't I?" ”

"I don't think Cesare is scaring you," said Jenny with a smile, "Cesare, are you scaring him?" ”

Cesare spread his hands, the closest he could come to pretending to be innocent, "I don't know what you're talking about, Jim, maybe you're just too nervous." ”

"Well, here we go again, it's totally bully." Jim made a devastated expression and yelled, "Don't pressure me, I'll never make an offer if I go on like this." ”

"Okay, okay." Jenny stepped forward to be a peacemaker, half-jokingly pulling Cesare outside, "I'll take Cesa for a cup of coffee and make the most of your time, dear." ”

With Jim's relieved expression, she and Cesare went to Cesare's office, which was actually used more often than Jenny's. There were many scripts to be read neatly and orderly on the desk, Cesare marked with a paperweight, Jenny glanced at it, and couldn't help but smile, "Rare, you haven't read so many scripts than you have read." ”

"Contrary to what you might think, there is a limit to my energy." Cesare sat down in his place and flipped through the script thoughtfully, "And after you won the double award, there are several times more scripts sent to the office than before, and in the CAA office, there are more scripts accumulated than here." After all, most movies nowadays want to find you as the heroine, but only a few of them will consider the investment of big dreams. ”

"After we announce the news of Disney's capital injection, I believe that the situation will change a lot." Jenny said, "After all, isn't that what we were trying to do in the first place?" Hollywood is the playground of the Big Six, and if we don't find a backer for ourselves, we will never be able to do much. ”

"Well, during this time, foreign investment is still suspended." Cesare nodded, "The most important thing is to complete the internal equity review - let's hope Jim doesn't offer a price that we can't accept." ”

"yes, but I'm optimistic." Jenny took a sip of her coffee, "You saw his face just now: he was always in awe of you. ”

Hollywood is a circle where the rules of the game are already very mature, in this circle, even if it is money, it is divided into three, six, nine, etc., the same is 10 million investment, the producer will break his head for the investment of the big six, but it may not be rare for small companies to share the same amount of cash, this is because the soft power represented by the big six is incomparable to any small company, before the big dream is empty with tens of millions of cash and nowhere to invest, not that Hollywood really has no good films, but big projects must give priority to finding the big six. These scripts to be filmed are like a draft for the strong to start first, and the good scripts will basically be screened by the six majors, and the remaining scripts will be competed for by medium-sized production companies such as Lionsgate and New Line, and the quality of the scripts that Dameng can see is not so high. At most, Jeanne can only rely on her own face to bring capital into the game to invest, but this is obviously not in line with Jeanne and Cesare's original intention to create a big dream. -- Now that Disney and Weinstein are in the side, their money will have a place to go, Disney has made a clear promise that "Alice" will bring Big Dream into the game, and even the investment is not unacceptable, after all, as the negotiations come to an end, the marriage of the three families has almost become a foregone conclusion, and now Big Dream is his own for Weinstein and Disney. Of course, many of the big investments on Weinstein's side will definitely bring big dreams to examine the script together, and this is the meaning of the swap of shares between the two sides.

Of course, this also brings a problem, that is, after the cooperation of the three, the puppeteer is bound to semi-openly enter the network marketing department of Big Dream, and become a tool that Disney and Weinstein can see and touch, at least least, the puppeteer must have one or two responsible persons in charge of Big Dream resident, otherwise network marketing is something that cannot be seen or touched, and it is even difficult to quantify the effect, if even a person can't see it, Disney and Weinstein are supporting and supporting Big Dream, what do they want?

- And this raises another problem, that is, the core of the puppeteer's business is actually divided into several parts, neither Jeanne nor Cesare intends to put all the chips and disks away, at the very least, the software that can affect the IMDB score they definitely do not intend to throw. This software has been developed so far, except for the testing stage, it has actually been run once, and it is used to affect the IMDB score of "The Fifth Sally", but due to its high score, the effect is not too obvious. But no one will deny the importance of software - once such a thing is handed over, Disney and Weinstein will not be able to use it, even if the IMDB score used to save a big investment bad movie can recover tens of millions or hundreds of millions of costs, and the result of abuse will definitely point to the destruction of the software itself. Therefore, in terms of network marketing, Dameng does still hide a hand.

So, Jim's importance suddenly rose rapidly. First, even if he goes out on his own, with the experience of building a puppeteer, he can build a marketing company that is not inferior to a puppeteer in a year or two, although it is very risky to do so, and may even endanger personal safety, but at least he can make a lot of money before the final accident. Second, Jim needs to be the founder and first person in charge of the network marketing department, hiding the hole cards that the puppeteer does not want to expose in business dealings, and at the same time maintaining a certain sense of mystery to Disney and Weinstein, because for these two companies, the puppeteer's skills are taught by the 'famous teacher', which is also an important reason why the two companies have always maintained politeness and restraint in the negotiation with Big Dream. Otherwise, it's hard to say, such an obvious support and cultivation, whether it is Bob or Harvey, it doesn't seem like a thing to ask for a physical almsgiving, if it weren't for the jealousy of Jenny's mysterious lover in reverie, then Jenny would have to face a lot of embarrassing moments.

Jim used to be loyal to Cesare, that is because hugging his thighs is his best means of survival, now network marketing has become a booming concept, his status is not what it used to be, expecting him to continue to take a million dollars a year and still be loyal, this is tantamount to a fool's dream, even cash remuneration is no longer enough for Jim, only to give cash to the treasure partner can not rest assured, Jim is now in charge of their most important hole cards, no shares, people can have a heart with you?

But how much should be given, this is also a very delicate matter, because Jenny and Cesare are far from the point of 'a tiger shock, everyone will bow down', after Disney's capital injection, the shares of the two founders have been reduced to 40%, and it is difficult to say how much you can give Jim, you are already very painful to open 10%, but maybe Jim himself is not satisfied. Because this new industry is just starting now, how much he can get when he goes out to work or changes jobs, that's completely unknown, if you open 10%, Jim is likely to think that I am actually worth 15%, and I still sell it cheaply - even if he finally finds that he is not even worth 1% after he leaves, as long as he wants to leave, in fact, Da Meng has already suffered a major loss.

"Is it time to have dinner with Cameron?"

"It should be next week, he might come to one of Leo's parties, so we can have dinner first and then go over the party together. Maybe Leo will join in for dinner too, you know he hasn't worked with Cameron in a long time. ”

"Ah, the most embarrassing situation, two male actors under your command compete for a starring position."

"It's nothing new for Cameron's films, and who plays them in the end depends on whether the role is suitable. For Leo and Chris, what is more important now is the character itself. - Oh, the PwC guys are gone. ”

"How many more days are they going to work?" Jenny pursed her lips, "It makes me feel good." ”

Before Disney injected capital, it was also necessary to verify and evaluate the share capital, copyright and cash of Big Dream, although Big Dream had very few physical assets, but it took a lot of time to sort out the copyright contract signed at that time. Cesare replied, "It should be done in two more days, and when you come back from South Carolina, we can announce Disney's funding, and if everything goes well, you can start negotiating funding for the "Twilight" and "Avatar" projects, and "Marley and I" can start to finalize filming." ”

In addition to Jenny's "Avatar", which did not hesitate to participate in in order to bring capital into the game, "Twilight" has also taken a turn for the better recently - with the release of "Tales of the Night 2" in January, the enthusiasm that was aroused because of the cost of "Tales of the Night" 1 cost 20 million and the global market explosion of 100 million has now quickly faded: the cost of "Tales of the Night 2" has tripled to 45 million, and the reviews are also very good, but the total box office still seems to be on par with the previous work, This shows that the market for vampire-themed films may not be very large.

I was optimistic about "Twilight" before, just because of "Night", in this context, the Big Six are no longer so enthusiastic about the project of "Twilight", and the original author of "Twilight" Stephanie . Mel has a lot of requirements, not only does she ask for a higher amount of revenue sharing, but also requires that the total investment amount cannot be less than 40 million, and for a niche theme with a global volume of 100 million, this investment means that there is almost no profit at all.

Of course, after the retreat of the Big Six, there are still several companies that are optimistic about "Twilight", among which is the discerning Summit Entertainment, who is making the final stage of contact with Mel, and Mel was completely dismissive of the olive branch of Big Dream - in choosing between Summit and Big Dream, she must have more trust in the peak with a longer history and experience in making successful works independently, and Big Dream's qualifications are very average in comparison, and they really couldn't promise anything at that time.

However, after Jenny won the double award, Mel's attitude began to waver a little, and now she is resigned to the attitude of the summit and the big dream competition, whoever can give her more favorable terms and a more credible source of filming funds will get the copyright of "Twilight". She doesn't care about the temporary royalties, but the revenue from the film's release - after all, for the Mel family, the royalties they get from the book sale have made them worry about food and clothing, and Mel now wants the opportunity to make the cake bigger.

Dingfeng is still looking for investors, and everything Big Dream wants can be solved after Disney's capital injection, the signboards of the six major and more than 100 million funds are enough for Big Dream to eat this project by himself, but Jenny is still thinking about cooperating with Dingfeng now, and retaining the original cast of the movie to the greatest extent - Weinstein has never released a teen movie, and Disney can't attach too much importance to this project, and Big Dream has no distribution experience himself, in order not to let a bad release ruin the series, she is thinking about cooperating with Dingfeng, Co-development. It could also give the company enough cash to get involved in Avatar, or, play bigger, and simply pull the project to Disney......

Of course, all of this will have to wait for Disney's capital injection before it can be started, and now they are concerned about the rationalization of the company's internal personnel: expansion, hiring, and power distribution...... And, of course, Jim's new worth.

Jenny and Cesare had become very skilled at the 'good cops, bad cops' set, and had put pressure on Jim to stop charging him unreasonably high prices. The two of them talked about business in general, and the internal phone rang, and Jim said angrily on the other end of the line, "Come on—" and it seemed that he had made up his mind.

"3%, how's that?" Jim obviously went through a few psychological struggles just now, and he sweated profusely again, and said as he wiped it, "Double the annual salary, 3% employee shares, I'm talking about A-grade shares." ”

Big Dream's share capital is 40 million, 3% of the employee shares are 1.2 million, held by Jim himself, can not be transferred, if the company does not pay dividends, his investment is likely to be unyielded for many years, Jim's conditions are actually to tie himself and Big Dream together, clearly optimistic about Big Dream will have the opportunity to do big listing in the future. Of course, after becoming a minority shareholder of the company, his voice in many matters will also increase.

The equity relationship of Big Dream is still very simple, with only a few shareholders such as Jenny, Cesare, Disney, Jim and Weinstein, but if it is to gradually grow in the future, with its continuous financing, employee equity incentive plans, and even the possibility of listing later, the equity structure will gradually become complicated, but as long as the A-class shares are still concentrated in the hands of Jeanne and Cesare, the control will not be transferred. Jim's request for A-class shares is actually to join the founder's core group, which is also the most 'transgressive' step in his request, as for doubling the annual salary and employee shares, it is not excessive.

Jenny and Cesare looked at each other: it was much better than the worst they had ever imagined.

"You won't regret your decision." Cesare said succinctly, and he patted Jim on the shoulder, "Jim." ”

"Welcome to the ranks of shareholders." Jenny smiled and raised her glass of water to Jim, "I have to say, your decision is a bit unexpected, Jim, and Chesa and I thought you were brewing something earth-shattering. ”

"I know my shortcomings." Jim spread his hands, "I'm born to do what people do, and I don't do it myself. Now that I've found the wolf, it's all I have to do is follow him with all my heart. ”

He did not deny that he considered going it alone, and finally gave Cesare a hand, which can be regarded as exposing this article. Jenny smiled and said, "What about me?" What am I, female wolf? Please, don't say I'm the wolf's companion. ”

"You're also my head wolf in another realm," Jim hurriedly leveled up with a bowl of water, "Without me, the puppeteer might still be able to operate, but without your guidance, it wouldn't have been born in the first place." ”

Jenny laughed, "I can hear you mean it, Jim, you'd better think of a better flattery—"

"It's already four o'clock in the afternoon." Cesare wiped his hands with a wet tissue as he freed Jim. "Are you sure you don't need to prepare for your dinner date?"

"Oh, shot." Jenny looked at her phone, "I forgot all about it—I'm gone, Chesa, can you come with me tonight?" ”

Cesare reminded, "Script. ”

"-well," said Jenny, a little whimsical, "what about you, Jim?" ”

"No problem." Jim said, "Me and Mary, right?" I'll go home and change my clothes first, and then I'll come to your house to pick you up. ”

“ok。” Jenny sighed, "Now I wish I could get back to South Carolina soon: damn, I really envy Josh, even the scorching sun in South Carolina is countless times more fun than a Hollywood party." ”

"Trust me," Jim said sincerely, "that's because you've made the wrong statement -- those boring parties of all time exist for the sole purpose of pleasing you, as long as you say, 'Hey, hemp, and spirits aren't all that unacceptable', boom!" These parties will be fun in the next second. ”

"What, is the purpose of these parties to please me?" Jenny rolled her eyes, "I thought they existed to make everyone bored to death, and to subjecte me to the torture and punishment I deserved for rushing to get two awards." ”

As Jim laughed, the elevator doors slowly closed, and Jenny waved to Cesare, who had escorted them to the door, and chatted with Jim. "Was it my delusion, or was Cesare avoiding Bale all the time - I dare say his absence tonight would have disappointed Bale."

Cesare's most faithful brother, Jim, let out an inexplicable grunt, and Jenny kindly suggested, "This is a good opportunity to show your divine allegiance to me, Jim." ”

"Okay, okay." Jim sighed, "I think Cesare just instinctively doesn't like any party - but that's not the point, the point is that Leo and Chris might both be going to the party tonight, you know, Bell and they both have a good relationship, and Chesa doesn't need to be between the two of them at such a sensitive moment." ”

"Oh." Jenny said, "Right - is it because of Avatar or because of Giselle?" ”

"I don't know." Jim shrugged, "Maybe it's because of Oscar - never say this in front of Leo, but I've heard some rumors that Leo is said to be annoyed that Chris won the best actor first." He thinks this will reduce his chances of success with "The Departed" and of course, maybe the relationship between "Avatar" and Giselle. ”

"Actually, I think it's more Giselle - there used to be rivalry between Leo and Chris, but it's still friends, and it's Giselle who makes everything sour." That's the magic of women, isn't it? Who knows what Chris thought at the time, but he did disgrace Leo. ”

"If he really cares so much about Giselle, then he should marry her instead of disappointing Giselle again." Jenny is on the side of Chris and Giselle at this point - although Leonardo has a rich love history and is suave, there must be something special between him and Giselle, the two once came to the point of engagement, but then because Leo did not get married for a long time, Giselle, who was forced to marry by talking to the media, finally broke up with him, and the two briefly reunited at the beginning of this year, and then broke up quickly again, the reason should also be related to the inability to negotiate marriage. As soon as Giselle announced his breakup, he found Chris to walk the red carpet with him, and Chris was awarded the best actor that night...... If it weren't for Jenny's success in becoming the topic of the month with a double award, the triangle relationship between Chris, Leo and Giselle would definitely make headlines, and even now, this scandal is not low. After all, the masses love dog blood, and all the topics that Jenny can provide here are that after winning the award, Josh went back to South Carolina to film first, and she stayed in Hollywood, and the relationship between the two seemed to have begun to fade.

In this matter, the one who made the most profit was Giselle, her new company made a lot of eyeballs because of this scandal, Chris was a righteous shot, whether anything happened with Giselle during the period, Jenny didn't know, the biggest loser was of course kicked by his girlfriend, and because he couldn't win the Olympic award, he was ridiculed for being incomplete. So far, he hasn't said anything bad about Chris, but who knows what's going on in his mind? How to reconcile Leo and Chris, or choose sides between the two, must have been a nerve-wracking problem for Cesare.

"Jenny!"

"Jenny darling!" At seven o'clock that night, Jenny arrived at Bell's mansion on time. Bell and fiancé Georgia. Lansing greeted her out of the porch with enthusiasm, and Bell made no secret of her importance for Jenny, smiling and taking her by the arm, and walking with her into the living room. "Honey, pick some food you like, fill your stomach first, and then we should catch up."

In contrast to Hollywood's usual bizarre parties, today's party atmosphere is extremely light, even for middle school students to be a little more psychedelic - salads, salads and salads are laid out at the buffet table, there are almost no fried foods, desserts, meat is also extremely modest, the strongest drinks are only served red wine, especially mineral water, and the hookah is nowhere to be seen, it is almost like a commercial dinner. The guests gathered in groups of threes and threes, and they couldn't even move their bodies, because the music was very soft.

This sudden fresh wind in Hollywood is not because all the stars have changed sex, but because of the little Disney princess - Jennifer, who is currently the most concerned in Hollywood. Jefferson was really boring by nature, she didn't drink, she was on a strict diet, and of course she had a big mouthful. The hemp is not sticky, because it is fixed before 12 o'clock every night. Bedtime, not accustomed to being too excited before bed, so too loud music and dancing are not in the picture: even if it means a boring and killing party, the trend spreads quickly. Witherspoon invites her to the party to begin and Natalie. Portman, Scarlett. Johnson and even Julia. Roberts, all the parties Jenny promised to go to were very consistent in style - and Jenny eventually found out that it was because they had hired the same party company that Reese had hired.

This is Hollywood, as long as you have a little bit of power, there will be people around you, and when people think you have a background that is beyond imagination - well, it is obvious what they will do, not to mention that now the news that Disney and Weinstein will cooperate with Big Dream in depth has spread all over the streets, it is no exaggeration to say that Jenny this month is the world's No. 1 princess, wherever she goes, where the flowers and plants will even make way for her.

"Jennifer," although she was quite smiling about the atmosphere of the party, she couldn't help but admit that such a dinner meal still made Jenny feel very comfortable, she took half a salad, took a bottle of mineral water, and took the initiative to come to Bell and Georgia with a smile, "Thank you for making such a thoughtful arrangement for me." ”

"Oh, if you think so, it's worth it." Bell covered his chest a little exaggeratedly, "By the way, I heard that you won't be back to South Carolina for a while, how about it, are you interested in going out to sea and surfing these days?" We have a nice house in Malibu if you like sailing at sea......"

This is Bell's second invitation in a short period of time, and her eagerness to reconcile with Jenny is obvious, as for Jenny, she will show up, in addition to Georgia being the executive in charge of Avatar now in charge of Universal, and because she quite enjoys the way Bell racks his brains to please her - very superficial, she knows, but this vanity is really exciting.

"Hey, dear Jennifers." What is reassuring is that there is no confrontation between the two kings tonight, although Leonardo appeared, Chris did not come. He didn't seem to yawn over the boring party, but greeted a few people with great interest, "You guys are so beautiful tonight." ”

"Leo." Both Jenny and Bell showed a warm smile, and Bell stepped forward to hug Leo, and it could be seen that the relationship between the two was indeed good. "You've finally shown up - go get yourself something to eat, dear."

As the two spoke, a new wave of guests came over, and Bell and Georgia smiled apologetically at the two and left to greet them, Jenny smiled and turned to Leonardo - it was their first meeting since the Oscars, "It's hard to imagine that you would be on such a boring occasion, Leo." ”

"Shh Leonardo did not respond to Jenny, but instead made a silent gesture and took Jenny's hand. "They're coming—get out of here."

Jenny was a little surprised, but smiled and bent her □, followed Leo's guidance, and slipped out of the spacious living room with him into the garden of Bell's house.

The author has something to say: Note: 1 Yesterday I checked the name of Bell's fiancé Benjamin, and I'll change it all later, I'm sorry
