Chapter 515: Long Live the Boss

Hearing Xu Guanwu ask, Hong Jingbao, Yuan Biao, and Di Wei all looked at Cheng Long for a while.

Cheng Long is different from the situation of the three of them, with a salary of 2.5 million US dollars, which is almost dozens of times the salary of Hong Kong, and a movie can almost last a lifetime.

To be honest, Hong Jingbao thought to himself that if he encountered such a situation, he would definitely be excited. However, if he also knew that Mr. Xu nominally said that he would listen to their opinions, in fact, he still hoped that they would follow his arrangement. After all, people are big bosses, and it took them a while to make you popular, so they naturally don't want you to fly away when your wings are stiff.

And even if you stay in Hollywood to develop, it's not so easy, without the company's support, how can it be so easy to be popular?! If you say that you don't want to go back to Hong Kong now, and you want to stay in Hollywood to develop, will Mr. Xu be willing to invest in you again? And will Mr. Xu's friends help you again?

Therefore, Hong Jingbao hopes that Cheng Long can be smart, see the stakes clearly, and don't see 2.5 million US dollars, and he can't remember anything.

Although Yuan Biao and Di Wei did not think as much as Hong Jingbao thought, they also knew that Cheng Long's answer was related to his future future. A step forward may be a bottomless abyss, but a step back may be a high sea. Everyone is a good brother, so naturally they don't want Cheng Long to make the wrong choice.

After Cheng Long himself heard Xu Guanwu's question, he couldn't help but be stunned, as if a pot was boiling in his heart, and all kinds of thoughts burst out like bubbles, making people feel disturbed and confused.

If he can stay in the United States and earn a salary of 2.5 million US dollars, he can't imagine such a large amount of money. And filming in the United States. You have the opportunity to become an international superstar. Car. Bungalows, dollars, chicks...... Together can be at your fingertips, no longer just a pipe dream.

And if you choose to return to Hong Kong now, it will take at least another five years for all this to do. Five years is not a long time, but it is not a short time. He is now in the prime of his youth, in his prime, and in the golden age of the most passionate and energetic...... If you are spending five years in Hong Kong, you will be wasting the best five years.

And five years later, who knows what kind of things will change?! Now the world has become so fast, there are wars everywhere, there are dead people everywhere, amazing changes are happening everywhere.

Five years ago, Mr. Xu had nothing on the set, but now he is a super-rich man with a net worth of billions. And his career also started from filming in the United States, who can say that he doesn't have that kind of good luck?

Cheng Long thought that if he stayed in the United States to film, he would be as lucky as Xu Guanwu, and he would also have the opportunity to become a super-rich. I couldn't help but be red with excitement.

But then he thought about if he agreed to stay in the United States to develop, in case it was not good to develop here. Where else can I run away?!

After staying in the United States for more than half a month, he has deeply realized Xu Guanwu's strength. Even 20th Century Fox is a loyal ally of him, and he also owns a stake in the second-largest movie theater chain in the United States.

If he wants to stay in the United States and develop, it will definitely make Xu Guanwu dissatisfied, and as long as his friend says a little bit, Cheng Long will have almost no way out. This is the power of the big Hollywood studios.

And if he can't get along in the United States, he won't be able to return to Hong Kong, can he go to Golden Harvest after leaving Xu's? ! Cheng Long couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this, he had been in Xu's for several years, and he had seen Xu's power, not only in terms of salary and benefits for its employees, but also in terms of the company's operating system, film production and publicity, etc., Golden Harvest could not compete with Xu's.

It is said that Tsang Zhiwei also made a number of blockbuster films at Hui's Brothers earlier, and he can be called one of the most promising new directors in Hong Kong. But after running to Jiahe, limited by Jiahe's own conditions, he could only rely on following the trend and frying cold rice to survive, and his momentum was obviously not as good as before.

After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Cheng Long finally smiled and nodded to Xu Guanwu, "Mr. Xu, I decided to go back to Hong Kong with you." ”

Hearing him say this, Hong Jingbao, Yuan Biao, and Di Wei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When Xu Guanwu heard him answer, he couldn't help but grin, "Since that's the case, let's clean it up, and let's go back to Hong Kong together the day after tomorrow." Tomorrow will give you a day, what gifts you want to buy, or where you want to play, you all arrange them first. ”

"Xie Lu, Mr. Xie Xu." Hong Jingbao and the others smiled happily. After coming to the United States, I was only busy with publicity, and I really didn't have time to go shopping and see the bright lights of the United States. Now that Xu Guanwu has finally been gracious, naturally they have to hurry up and play.

"Di Wei, don't go crazy with them tomorrow, follow me to the CAA brokerage company first." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "You are developing in the United States alone, and if you don't have a brokerage company to help you take care of everything, it will be difficult for you to get out here." ”

"Yes, Mr. Xie Xu." Di Wei nodded happily and said, as long as he signs a Hollywood agency, he will officially gain a foothold in the United States in the future.

"By the way, don't just know how to play when you have time, learn English well, hone your acting skills, which will also be good for your future development." Xu Guanwu reminded kindly.

"Yes, Mr. Xu, I know." Di Wei nodded.

"Well, in that case, let's all go and rest." Xu Guanwu smiled.

The four of them nodded and went back to their rooms.

"Aaron, just now I was really worried that you said that you would stay in the United States and not return to Hong Kong." After returning to the room, Hong Jingbao breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm not stupid, stay in the United States, without Mr. Xu's support, how long can I still be popular?" Cheng Long sighed and said, "If I can't be popular in the United States, and I can't go back to Hong Kong, then I'm finished." ”

"If only you knew that." Hong Jingbao nodded and said, "But you don't have to be too sad, as long as you follow Mr. Xu well, it will not be a problem to become popular in the United States in the future." You should also see that you have been in the United States for so long, how powerful Mr. Xu is in Hollywood, and it is just a trivial matter for us to become popular. ”

"Again, don't come to the United States. I really didn't know that Mr. Lu Daoxu was so famous in the United States. Yuan Biao also sighed and said. But I don't know when we will be as red as Aaron. It's $2.5 million, and if I change it, I may not be able to stay in the United States. ”

"Are you still afraid that you won't have any money to make with Mr. Xu in the future? You also know Stallone, who was so downtrodden that he didn't have a company to ask for, and now he is not also Hollywood's premier action star? Hong Jingbao smiled and said, "We are much stronger than his fists and feet, and we are screenwriters, directors, and actors." I thought to myself that I would not lose to him, and that we would definitely be better than him in the future. Now 2.5 million US dollars is nothing, and when we become popular, the minimum price will be 10 million. ”

"The most comfortable thing is Di Wei, who can stay in the United States to develop, with a salary of 500,000 US dollars, which is much more than what we earn." Yuan Biao couldn't help but say enviously, "I wonder if Mr. Xu can give us such a high salary after we return to Hong Kong?" ”

"You think about beauty, if you pay us $500,000, what will happen to the rest of the company? Like Mai Jia. Zhang Jian, Gui Zhihong. Lu Liangwei...... These people are all on a par with us. What if they are also clamoring for a raise? Hong Jingbao waved his hand and said, "In my opinion, don't think so much, if you want to make money, you have to continue to work hard, and when we come back, we will continue to launch good dramas, are you afraid that no one will invite us to film?" ”

"But what if Mr. Xu gets in the way again?" Cheng Long looked at Hong Jingbao and asked.

"I don't think he's going to stop anything." Hong Jingbao smiled and said, "You have also listened to the plan made by Mr. Xu, when we make a few more good dramas and achieve a high box office in the United States, then we will be promoted from the current third-tier artists to the level of second-tier and first-line artists in one fell swoop." At that time, the salary will not be just a pitiful $500,000, but 5 million, 10 million dollars. ”

"I just don't know if Mr. Lu Daoxu's plan can be realized, if it can't be realized, then we won't have a chance?" Yuan Biao asked worriedly.

"You have been with Mr. Xu for so long, when have you ever seen him fail in investment?" Hong Jingbao looked at Yuan Biao and asked.

"Not really." Yuan Biao thought about it and couldn't help but shake his head and said.

"That's it, Mr. Xu has always been invincible, what are you worried about." Hong Jingbao waved his hand and said, "Okay, I will go back to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow, go shopping tomorrow, help my family buy some gifts and bring them back, and I will be scolded for being stingy when I go back empty-handed." ”

……

Early the next morning, the three brothers of Hong Jingbao made an appointment to go shopping, while Xu Guanwu took Di Wei to the CAA brokerage company to help him go through the signing procedures.

After years of development, the current CAA agency has made great achievements, even in Hollywood, it is already a top brokerage company, with more than 1,000 artists, many of whom are first-line and second-tier artists in Hollywood. In addition to actors, such as screenwriters, producers, directors, even dancers, stage actors, and even singers, they are also signed with them.

The large-scale and all-round development has made CAA agents like an octopus, extending their tentacles to every part of the entertainment industry, and making their influence in the American entertainment industry more and more significant.

With the growing influence, the performance of CAA brokerage company has also increased year by year, from an annual profit of only one or two million US dollars to a current profit of more than 70 million US dollars, and it has become one of the most profitable brokerage companies in Hollywood.

Xu Guanwu to Lang. Meyer and other five young people are also very satisfied with their work, so this time they came to CAA brokerage company, in addition to recommending Di Wei to sign a contract with the company, they also wanted to ask Lang. Meyer et al.

"Boss, he's the majestic pirate leader in "A Plan", right?" Bright. Meyer asked with a smile.

"Not bad." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "How is it, do you think he has a lot of potential?" ”

"Well, the kung fu is very good, and it is strong and powerful, which is very suitable for acting in some action movies." Bright. Meyer nodded and said, "Boss, do you want him to owe us this company?" ”

"Yes, you guys help him take care of the show." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "I know that Chinese actors are not very good in Hollywood, so you should care more about him." ”

"Yes, since you personally ordered it by the boss, then we will definitely take care of him." Michael. Oviz also smiled and said, "But it seems that Jieji is more famous, boss, when are you going to hand him over to us?" ”

"Wait a little longer, I want to wait for his reputation to go to the next level, and then I'm thinking about letting him come to Hollywood to film." Xu Guanwu waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can worry more about Di Wei's affairs in the future, and I will hand him over to you." ”

"Promise to complete the tasks assigned by the boss." Bright. Meyer said with a smile.

"Well, I'm also very satisfied with your performance in the past few years, and you really haven't disappointed me." Xu Guanwu smiled.

"Boss, it's just a verbal compliment, is there a more practical reward?" Michael. Ovitz asked with a smile.

"Hehe, since you have asked, I want to say no, how disappointed you are." Xu Guanwu smiled slightly, "How about a bonus of 500,000 US dollars per person, and a double salary increase?" ”

"Long live the boss!" Bright. Meyer and the others shouted happily together. (To be continued......)
