Chapter 166: Crazy Daniel

"Jerry? Yes, I'm Daniel and there's something wrong with my phone. Andy? Andy is in contact with the merchant, yes, fortunately I gave you DD's phone. What's the matter with you? Uh-huh, uh-huh, do you mean in San Pedro? Is it appropriate there? Are you going to check it out, me? I may not have time, can I ask Ferguson to accompany you? However, can't we really communicate with Mexico again, and the filming plan of "Angry Seas" has already been submitted? Okay, okay, that's good Jerry, I'll ask him to contact you on Ferguson's side, and if San Pedro isn't suitable, there should be some suitable places in the San Francisco Bay Area, and I have the impression that Disney or other studios should have similar experiences and let Paul find out. Okay, that's waiting for your news. ”

Kusa was sitting across from him, and he was about to speak when he was interrupted by a phone call.

"It's unbelievable that the big tank in Baja California, Mexico, where "Titanic" was filmed, and "Pearl Harbor" was actually occupied by "Raging Seas". Will is such a cunning man, I'll have to call Crow and complain. By the way, "Pearl Harbor" parodies "Titanic" is really wasteful, but in the end it is useless, and this cannot be heard by Jerry. Phew, well, you say, yes - oh, I'm sorry, who is it this time? ”

"Hi, yes yes yes, the phone is broken. David, aren't you going to MGM? Is Hotel Rwanda on fire? What the? Edward wants to cut some of my play? OK, I have no opinion. As long as the movie is good enough, I don't plan to win an Oscar with it, so let it be. As long as Denzel's is cut, it's an Oscar-winning play. Uh-huh, yes, I said it, you tell him. Happy work. ”

"I'm sorry, Cusa, the phone is always on the phone. I suspect that when my phone turns back on, it might blow up. Now you can say that no one should interrupt us. ”

Cusa flicked his slightly stiff ass. "Me and Ringβ€”"

The phone rang again at an inopportune time.

Daniel opened his mouth, then clapped his hands as if giving up, "Leave it alone, you say." ”

"Don't do that. Daniel. You take it, it's okay, my main task today is to communicate with you about this matter. ”

After struggling for a while, Daniel said "I'm sorry" and picked up the phone that kept ringing again.

"Oh, Miss Landley, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was in the editing room just now, and I didn't hear the phone. Do you have any advice? The contract for "Fake Gods"? Oh. I haven't seen it yet," Daniel looked at Kusa hesitantly, and Kusa shook the text in his hand with a helpless expression on his face, "I see it, on my desk." I'm too busy today to look at it, but Kusa can represent me, and his decision is mine. Yes, what else is the problem? The director refused? My God, if I'm not mistaken, it's going to start shooting next month, right? What does Tom want to do? Because Kim. Carrey doesn't act, so he doesn't want to direct this film? Okay, Donna, if I were you, I would let him roll as far as he wanted, there are many three-legged men in Hollywood, and there are also many two-legged male directors, what's the point? Donna, are you telling the truth? Hmm~~, I want to think about it, can I call you back later? Uh-huh, you're welcome, yes, I'll do my best to see it, goodbye, dear. ”

"It's so interesting, filming will start next month, and now the contract for the actor is my haven't been signed yet, and now I'm told that the director has skipped the ticket. Tom, Tom. Shadiak, have you heard of it? Oh, have you really heard of it? ”

"I once directed "Detective Plane Head" and "Ace Liar", both of which are comedies."

"If I'm not mistaken, are both Jim Carrey films? So they're a good pair of friends? No wonder one walked and the other followed, Kim. Kerry's preferences are really special, he's not with Renee. Did Zweig get together? Is it playing threesome? Is it so open to playing comedy? ”

Cusa looked at Daniel, whose eyes were flickering with fire, and wisely remained silent about his caustic words.

I took two deep breaths, "I'm sorry, Kusa, I'm a little-"

"I understand."

"Okay, so you can tell me about the contract for The Impostor, Donna- uh-huh...... I really, want to smash it. ”

Yes, the phone is ringing again.

"Hello, this is Daniel. Sandler, Raymond? My dear, is there anything wrong with you? Something is wrong with Microsoft stock? Uh-huh, Raymond, you're my investment manager, and I authorize you to invest in my money, and I'm already too busy to keep my feet on the ground, and at this time you ask me if Microsoft's stock is really going to fall, and I really can't answer you. I'm with Bill. Gates's daughter doesn't have a leg, she's too young, you know? Jennifer is only 6 years old, you know? Oh, and that's just a passing to ask, okay, so what do you want to ask about? Javier says MB's funds are in danger of not being enough? How big is the gap? By the middle of next year, the difference is 40 million, okay, financing? Why? No, you don't! I'll give him money next year, you tell him to remember to remind Evan to get the money ready, and send me the report, I need to see where he's spending it. So, that's something you really want to know, right? Or is it just incidental? OK, okay, goodbye, good luck and don't lose all my money. ”

"It's all a group of good, hard-working cuties."

"Cusa, now it's your turn to dictate my time, talk me quickly, or I don't guarantee that Bush will call me later."

Kusa glanced at him worriedly, "Danny, you're not in good shape, do you need-"

"Rest, isn't it? Perhaps, anyone will turn without the earth, but my career, without it, I don't know. …… Look, how many are these? This is the case almost every day. ”

"I know the number this time, Fred. Fred? Has the post-screening report of "Spy Shadows" come out? Okay, hard work, you can let Andy bring it to me tomorrow. I'll look good, thank you, bye. ”

Chang Chang exhaled a breath from his chest and lungs, as if to expel all the anger, depression, and anxiety in one go, adding up to his fifty years of soul age, but these things were also the first time for him, and although it was not so difficult to deal with, it was still too difficult a challenge.

"Kusa, let's go home and talk, I'll look at the contract in the car, you call them, Andy, Melissa, Terever, and Ferguson, if he hadn't been called over by Jerry, Fred would have forgotten."

Kusa didn't ask much, and Daniel, apparently regained from his irritability, decided to pull up his team to help him share the pressure.

I took a cursory look at the "Fake Gods" contract given by Universal in the car, and this contract was simply difficult to deliver. The huge packaging contract for "Spy Shadow" has landed, and Donna is still entangled with Kusa, and the two have fought almost more than a dozen times before they can decide on the version in front of them.

The main condition is, of course, the salary, the basic salary is 12 million, but there is also a ten-point global box office share.

"Donna lacks confidence that Universal can get 100 million?"

If Universal can get 100 million at the box office, Daniel will be able to take 10 million, plus the basic salary, which is 22 million, which is slightly lower than Daniel's asking price of 18 million + 5 points, that is, 23 million. If the global income is lower, the existing solution will of course be better for the world.

"It's not particularly easy to get 100 million box office from a movie. So far, in your movies, except for "The Fellowship of the Ring", only "Spy Shadow" has this potential for the time being, and "Legally Blonde" and MGM have received almost this number, which is already their most profitable movie in recent years. Donna is a shrewd woman. ”

Daniel nodded, basically, the film can get about 55% to 60% of the North American box office, and the global box office is as low as 35% to 45%, so basically if you want to have a share of 100 million, you basically need to be the top ten films at the North American box office of the year. This can be calculated, Donna has indeed made a business that does not lose money.

"Within a year or before the release of the agreed movie, Party B is not allowed to take on comedy films? Kusa, do I have a comedy plan? ”

"Not at the moment, this restriction is only until next summer, and you don't have much time to make new movies before this, unless you plan to die."

"I'm dying of busyness."

Putting the contract aside, Daniel rubbed his temples, feeling that the two pieces that should have been recessed were now bulging. With his eyes closed and thinking about the two pieces of flesh growing on his temples, Daniel couldn't help but shudder.

When Kusa and Daniel arrive at Daniel's house, Andy and Melissa have already arrived.

"Will my phone still work?"

"Yes, just remove it and wipe it, blow it with a hair dryer, and you can turn it on."

While taking a shower this morning, Daniel answered a phone call, only to drop his phone in the water and immediately fail to turn it on. So he had to ask Andy to help him fix his phone - at this time, someone had to keep an eye on these phone repairers, and the contents of the phone might not be saved. Whether it's China or Hollywood, this is not a two-story lesson.

"Okay, pour me some water, okay? Honey, I have a bit of a headache. ”

Melissa got up and poured him a glass of boiled water, "You've been too busy lately, and you've had too many things to do. ”

"Yes, I also realized today that although I want to make a Marvel movie, I'm not one of those amazing superpowers in the Marvel Universe, and I have to cut some of my work appropriately." (To be continued......)
