Chapter 73: Attacking Daniel's Team

(Because of technical failures, I can't see what I sent before, so I'll try it again, and ignore what I've seen)

"Daniel, they all refuse to be your temporary agent." Kevin's voice was a little tired, it sounded like he had said a lot today, "You know, many of them are partners at all levels of the company, even Ino doesn't have the power to force them to do anything, I persuaded them for a long time, but they seem to have reached a unified alliance, Daniel, this time you have to pay for your willfulness, and I can't do anything." ”

"......" Daniel was silent on the other end of the phone for a moment, "Okay, Kevin, thanks, I see." ”

This is the revenge of those top agents against him, and the same is telling other young people that you need to follow the rules.

The CAA may not have the same idea, after all, Daniel became the monkey who killed the chicken to show the monkey.

Hanging up the phone, Daniel and Andy looked at each other.

"Maybe my decision was really too willful," Daniel let out a long sigh, "However, it has come to this, there is nothing to regret, CAA is obliged to provide me with brokerage help, and now that they are out of business, I can't sue them, but they must understand that this is a mistake they made, and I can't eat by myself before I leave Kusa." ”

"Call Melissa and ask her to come over tonight, oh no, I'll call myself, Draco might be worried."

Daniel's tenacious and unyielding character sustained him in navigating this crisis.

The phone rang four or five times before someone answered.

"Hey, this is the Ryan family." Melissa's voice was much calmer than before, and it seemed that the experience had paid off for her.

Daniel struggled not to show unnecessary negativity, "Hello Melissa, I'm Daniel, is Draco there?" ”

"Oh, Danny, I got a call from CAA, I'll be at work tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, maybe we'll meet a little earlier."

"Huh? What do you mean? Melissa shouted from the other end, "Daddy, Daniel is looking for you." ”

The time that the aging Draco had walked was enough for Melissa to ask several questions.

"Melissa, that's right, we're having a little difficulty, well, a big one, now I want you to get to work as soon as possible, tonight, tonight you can come to my house, Andy is too, you don't have to worry about any misdeeds on my part."

"Uh, tonight? I guess there's no problem, I'll go right away. ”

"Wait, I need to say something to Draco."

"Come on, Danny, I can decide my own itinerary." Melissa was slightly dissatisfied.

"Not what I thought, I'm going to ask Draco something."

Draco finally got the microphone from Melissa, though she wouldn't leave.

"Hi Draco, I'm in trouble, Kusa resigned and disappeared without giving an explanation, and the CAA guys are ready to punish me for my previous decision, so I'm on my own now. It's a mess. ”

Drake's gentle voice helped Daniel calm himself, "Daniel, you asked Melissa to work overtime tonight, it seems that there is a way to deal with it, this is good, I will support you, I believe you can get through this time, if necessary, I will do my best to help you." ”

"Oh, thank you, you're really my nobleman, and fortunately there's Melissa."

"It's also a workout for her."

"She'll make it, thank you, Draco."

After the phone call with Draco, Daniel packed up his papers and left CAA with Andy, and behind them, no one knew how many doors were closed.

But at least Kim Paison was sneering.

The two returned to Daniel's home in Malibu.

"Andy, I'll pay you another salary, so help me do some more things, make appointments with my lawyer and accountant, I'll have to keep track of my finances myself from tomorrow onwards, and Melissa will have to come with me. When she comes, we'll have to figure out what we're going to say to Langley tomorrow, and I'll have to get costumes and limousines for the USC Short Film Awards, and they don't arrange that. Then there's the dubbing work for Legally Blonde, which has to be as compressed as possible and can't be too arbitrary for MGM. Also, we have to think about how to meet the requirements of the global side, make me a little cooler, and find someone to fight with you? Ready-made candidates, Ryan Phillip, I promise Ryan himself will be very willing, Reese Witherspoon, MGM, DreamWorks, Universal Pictures, they all have to be happy, except for myself, so this one doesn't work.

I can't make myself unhappy but make them a bunch of vampire stinky bitches. ”

Melissa quickly rushed over, Andy prepared freshly ground coffee for her, and then the three of them began to work hard, Melissa did get the agent's systematic training, and it was quite smooth to take over, of course, it was a bit unrealistic to expect her to compete with the old sticks in the studio like Kusa.

But Melissa will always grow.

The lights at Daniel's house in Malibu didn't go out until 5 a.m.

And at eight o'clock, everyone had already washed up.

Not surprisingly, the tabloid already had news of a beautiful woman going to Daniel's mansion at night.

"We've finally proved that there are paparazzi on the outside all the time," Daniel said nonchalantly.

Now they're heading to Universal's office in Century City.

The following week, until the eve of the USC awards ceremony, Daniel was busy with his feet, he personally came forward to discuss the plan with the publicity team of "Gladiator", he had to attend the first trailer release ceremony, the pilot poster did not appear his image, which needed to be explained by the Universal side, and secondly, the tone on the character poster was too subtle, which was not exactly the same as the character of Commodius, he was crazy, but not exactly gloomy.

Nowadays, there are still very few small companies that specialize in making trailers and posters, unlike in the future, this kind of small studios attached to blockbusters have blossomed everywhere, and studios can spend tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars to solve a problem, and now it is mainly the studio's own post-production and art departments to do these jobs.

Every detail has to go back and forth, not everyone's goal is the same, everyone has their own demands, the box office is the main appeal of Universal, but the role is deeply rooted in the hearts of Daniel will insist, and Russell Crowe's agent requires that the protagonist Maximus must be clearly highlighted.

It's Crowe's ambition, and this year he missed out on the Oscars, and next year he's hoping to go again.

In addition to this main job, Daniel also has to check the financial details with Melissa all the time, tax avoidance results, etc., Daniel used to check the accounts regularly, but the details are all seen by Cusa, the work is very tedious, fortunately Melissa is a talented and careful agent, so they can basically control the financial situation.

Overall, Daniel's financial situation is okay.

After the filming of "Legally Blonde", MGM's remaining one million remuneration has been called, plus the one million of "Gladiator" is still a little left, although he did not accept any endorsements, Daniel has also participated in some commercial activities before, he is now popular, there are quite a lot of invitations to commercial activities, and the price is not low, but Kusa is very strict, so this part of the income is not particularly much.

Of course, fortunately, he doesn't have a PR agency to share in now, but soon he will have it, Cusa has excellent ability, but Melissa may lack a little, and with the release of "Gladiator", he will inevitably officially become a gladiator in Hollywood Vanity Fair, and PR agencies will be indispensable.

Accountants and lawyers are also paid according to the amount of work they do - if they are better financially off, they may need to contact an accounting firm, in which case they will have to be paid in proportion to the amount of the operation. For example, before he left Los Angeles, Kusa contacted an accounting firm for him to make investments, and no one would throw their money in the bank to depreciate, and it was essential to make some sound investments.

He's been busy with business all week, and he doesn't miss Jessica's seductive body, tomorrow they'll be together at the short film awards party, and old friends will get together again, so he called Jessica.

"Jessica, are you free tonight?"

"No, Mr. Sandler."

Well, the little sweetheart seems to be angry, but Daniel doesn't have much energy to soothe her, since he can't indulge to soothe the feelings, let's get a good night's sleep.
