Chapter 601: I Don't Care If You Die or Not (Part 3)

As soon as the press conference ended, the entertainment reporters finally dispersed and began to chase other big-name superstars for interviews, or began to enjoy delicious wine and food.

The playboy also began to entertain people, but as soon as he walked down the slope and was still talking to Sophie Marceau, Jennifer Lopez whispered a witty remark, so he stopped Edward, the president of Universal, and confessed to the two ladies, pulling him to the other side of the pool.

"King, I heard you're about to send a new round of scripts?" Edward, the old fox, went straight to the point in his first sentence, and the playboy didn't hesitate, nodding, "That's right, fifteen books, two for each of you, and I'll keep three for myself, but, for specific things, you can go to Dennis Zhang to talk, now I really ignore those, and besides, the contract has been signed, and there is nothing to discuss between us." ”

The playboy wants to plug the mouth, but the cute Dehua doesn't want to, it sounds like the news that came out, there are only two in each family, but there are still three in the second half of the year, of course, Jin Chen Film Group's own family is not less, "King, when will the script be released, next year?" ”

Edward asked tentatively, but the playboy shook his head, "No, probably two days later, before the Christmas holiday, Dennis Zhang will inform you at that time, you can go to the lottery together." ”

The playboy looked businesslike and didn't give Edward a chance, but Edward was shy, "So fast, then, it's true that there will be three batches of scripts next year?" Seeing Chen Jin nodding, thinking that the total number of a year has not changed, each is still six, but Jin Chen Film Group has made a lot of money, and it keeps nine of its own families every year, and they all retain independent distribution rights.

Thinking about the original contract, I now know that the playboy has already thought of a countermeasure. However, the matter has come to this point, people have the ability, and Edward can't help it. The best way is naturally to cooperate, and put his arm around the playboy's shoulders intimately, "King, we are old friends, although there is a contract, but our cooperation can still be deeper." Moreover, it is also because there is a contract, and those old guys have nothing to say, who told us to have a good relationship. ”

This guy is shameless, Chen Jin prefers William Campbell of 20th Century Fox, that guy is ruthless, but he is also atmospheric, unlike Edward, who is too cunning. Two-faced, of course, not necessary. It is better to maintain the relationship, after all, the issuance of the next three years still needs the cooperation of all parties.

"Dear Edward, it's not that I don't want to cooperate with you more, but now that the company has taken shape, and Dennis is also taking care of the affairs of the film company, I can't always break the rules," the playboy deliberately smiled bitterly, "You know that guy, even if I'm the boss." **// He never looked at me as a boss. ”

Edward despised the playboy in his heart, thinking to himself who told you to want to make the little beauty who was only fifteen years old, but his face was happy, "I don't believe this, as long as you open your mouth, Dennis will definitely not have any opinions." ”

The two of them were talking. In the distance, Paramount's Baker and 20th Century Fox William Campbell had already come over, still waving at the playboy, who shouted loudly: "King, what are you talking to that old fox, tell you, don't listen to him, that bastard is trying to take advantage of you, not a good bird." ”

Edward was about to fight back, when the playboy whispered, "It's the last time, dear Edward, the day after tomorrow, I will arrange for you to draw first, and then you know, if you can trust me!" ”

Playboy's character is definitely a bargain, not deceiving, Edward immediately smiled, although he didn't get other benefits, but, out of the twelve, pick two first, or Playboy himself thinks it's good, that's naturally quite loving. ..., of course, what he doesn't know is that Playboy will indeed let him get some benefits, but it doesn't have to be both, after all, he also has a time to "go away", but his benefits are still given, Edward's favor is owed, big things can't be requested, small things, Edward will never refuse, otherwise he really has no face to see Playboy again.

Seeing William Campbell walk in, he quietly said thank you, snorted proudly, and stepped forward to give William Campbell a hard time, "You guy, if you don't say bad things about me, you'll die!." ”

William Campbell grinned in pain, and also gave him a look, "It's not that I said, it's everyone who knows that you are bad, look at me, does anyone say I'm bad," smiled and climbed Chen Jin's shoulder, "King, we are all honest people, and we are the best partners when we work together." ”

Paramount's Baker scolded angrily, "You kid still said you're not bad, you just got on the king, and you want to throw me aside." William Campbell hehele, "Then how can you, you are by my side, can I still dump you?" ”

The playboy deliberately looked like he had goosebumps, and shook off William Campbell's hand on his shoulder, "Hey, you two still like to the base, I'll rub, Campbell, why are you so close, don't you want to take advantage of me, let me tell you, everyone in the world knows that I only like women." ”

Baker kicked him out of the way, laughing and shaking his head, "You're having a good life these days, and you're in a good state of mind, we're going to die of sorrow," the playboy waved his hand, "yes, don't do this with me, tell you, I've been using this thing to trick kids into lollipops for years." ”

William Campbell kicked Edward at this time, "Fuck off, the two of us have something to talk about with King," he was so polite, Edward really left, firstly, his benefits have already been obtained, and secondly, no matter how good William Campbell's character is, he will not pull Baker to ask Chen Jin for benefits, then, very simply, he and Baker really have something to say to Chen Jin.

Even, he guessed something, after all, this circle is so big, and he is a real big man, so he is naturally clear about what is happening in the circle.

Edward guessed correctly, William Campbell and Baker came for what he knew, and this time it was Baker who said first, "King, I heard that you are about to arrange next year's script, I want to ask, what is your own schedule?" ”

He is still subtle, but William Campbell is much more direct, and he can be regarded as understanding Chen Jin's temperament, "King, you have to give us half a year next year to help us make a movie." ”

Chen Jinyi frowned, he was also a big man, and his understanding of the things in the circle was not much worse than Edward's, and he also faintly thought of some possibilities, and shrugged, "You two finish things at once, one person at a time, I'm very tired to listen." ”

Baker probably knew that William Campbell was better than him, so he made a gesture of please, William Campbell was not polite, pulled Chen Jin to sit on the bench under the gentle slope, and said slowly: "You probably have heard of the "Titanic" we are filming, I am not afraid to tell you, the previous budget of 200 million US dollars is now almost gone, and Cameron has not started filming yet, and the special effects in the later stage are also a lot of money, we are all people who understand, and now we can't help it, but we have to find a leading actor with box office guarantees." ”

The box office of "Tomorrow's Empire" will not come out until tomorrow, and the first two days have now reached 42 million, and this is only in the United States, and this is not a sudden explosion like "The Expendables", many critics predict that the box office of "Tomorrow's Empire" will definitely exceed the $690 million of "The Expendables". ..., until now, the whole of Hollywood, counting Tom Hanks, no one can compare with Playboy's appeal, his fan base is the largest, Tom Hanks joked when he was interviewed at the premiere in New York the day before yesterday, he was very jealous that Chen Jin has so many female fans.

Hearing that it was indeed the Titanic, Chen Jin showed an inexplicable smile, which William Campbell and Baker did not understand, and said lightly, "Two, I heard that the film is led by Mr. Cameron, you are like this now, and others are not there, will it cause misunderstanding, you know, I have never liked to get involved in such things." ”

William Campbell shook his hand, with an angry face, "It's not his turn to speak now, that guy has a bad temper." ”

Playboy is now very clear about the current situation of "Titanic", and the news that the film has been in preparation since the 90s is nonsense, James Cameron may have had that idea at that time, and the real planning began last year, James Cameron persuaded Twentieth Century Fox Pictures to pay him to toss, and then, in September this year, the production officially began, to put it mildly, this can be regarded as real film preparation.

Since the start of production, in about 100 days, James Cameron has just completed the pre-construction of the model, and has shot some painless things 12 times, but at this time, he has not even had a complete script story, and other studios such as shooting studios and complete film studios have only begun to build, however, in this way, the entire preliminary work has spent nearly 100 million US dollars, you know, the budget of this film is only 150 million US dollars, This is what James Cameron said to 20th Century Fox at the time.

James Cameron is already well-known for being able to toss, he hasn't started filming yet, if he goes on like this, the ghost knows how much it will cost, and it can even be estimated that 200 million US dollars is already a certainty, and this is only the production cost, you know, the production cost of 200 million US dollars, plus publicity fees, distribution fees, etc., will probably cost 500 million US dollars to pay back.

500 million US dollars, now there can be a few films a year, and one "Heaven's Gate" that year made United States Film Company go bankrupt and liquidated to sell, if "Titanic" has a Waterloo, William Campbell's position under the ass will be problematic.

In other words, it's easy to lose money, but it's hard to make money, and following the playboy, you can make hundreds of millions of dollars a year, but if you lose hundreds of millions of dollars overnight, the shareholders don't care whether you William Campbell dies or not!
