Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

  Chapter 51 The Halo of the Big Brother (recommendation ticket requested)

  However, just as Roland suppressed his excitement, he bowed his body and trembled endlessly.

  David, who finished telling the inside story, would be wrong.

  He felt that Roland was angry at his passover, angry at his concealment.

  So, when he found out that Roland turned into Xiami and refused to look up for a long time, this rough guy chose to apologize.

   "I'm sorry, Roland, I shouldn't have hidden these things from you."

   "These things determine your life, and you should have the right to know."

   "However, I hope you understand."

   "The concealment is the result of serious consideration between Ganetti and I."

   "Because, if you want to keep working in this industry, agreeing to Steven may be the best choice at the moment."

  The sincere words stunned Roland, who was extremely excited.

   After he reacted, the little guy who wanted to continue to smirk suddenly raised his body.

   Without saying much, open your arms.

  When Roland turned sideways and hugged this thoughtful man tightly, the words of true feelings also appeared.

   "Uncle David, thank you for being able to consider things from my perspective."

   "You don't need to blame yourself. Not only will I not blame you, but I am very happy."

   "Just like when you asked me why I took on Home Alone."

   "At that time, you didn't doubt the reasons I gave, and now I won't question your motives."

  Youdao means that if you hesitate, you will lose, and if you are decisive, you will be given in vain.

   In Roland's view, the Olsen couple made a very correct decision.

  Because the olive branch thrown by Spielberg may be the same as the price of "Red Dead Redemption 2", in less than one night, the two numbers of 249 and 329 were completely wiped out by Star R.

No one can guarantee whether the other party's attitude will be the same as Square Enix's price for "Neil-Automata", and no one can be sure, whether his perception of Roland will be the same. It will be the same as Ubisoft's operating philosophy, "buy early and enjoy early, buy late and get a discount, and don't buy for free" - when they can't decide what the other party thinks, they will seize this opportunity in the shortest possible time. Of course, right now, they The most correct choice that can be made.

You know, Xiao Lizi still surrendered his status even though he was holding "The Big Ship" and desperately joined the Jewish gang. He would rather lower his salary than take over Scorsese's "Gangs of New York". Break into this circle; at the beginning of the new century, Ah Tang, who wanted to seek transformation, also found Coppola and Martin Sr., who had worked together in the past, hoping to win Spielberg's project, so as to get rid of the identity of the creamy niche.

Everyone knows that partnering with Spielberg is a profitable business: if the movie hits, he must be the one who suffers the most criticism, and if the movie becomes popular, the attention will be huge. double the increase.

  Faced with this kind of choice, if David pushes back the opportunity, then Roland will be ignorant and angry.

   As for David's remorse?

   In Roland's view, this is just an education method of the Olsen family.

  Tell the younger generation that you are an independent individual, and you should be honest with each other among family members...

  These ideas are the life philosophy that David wants to instill in the children, and the root of it is not for you?

  Although Roland didn't care about David's words, he admired David's actions; this kind of teaching by example is much better than saying 'you can't do this', 'you can't do that', 'I'm all for you'.

  And when he hugged David and said those comforting words.

  David, who wanted to continue admitting his mistake, closed his mouth.

  Since Roland can understand his intentions, he doesn't need to say any more.

  Raised his hand and patted Roland's back a few times, a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

   While the two were communicating, Samantha, who Roland didn't know, also finalized the contract with Mario, the producer of the "Terminator 2" project team. The total time spent didn't even exceed 30 minutes.

  The reason is also very simple.

   Everyone is an insider, and they are familiar with all kinds of terms. What's the point of cheating each other?

   Besides, Spielberg, the big boss behind Samantha, is having a lively chat with his own big boss, Cameron.

  Since the two of them have already finalized the matter and are waiting on the sidelines, if the people below delay the boss's time for a few extra dollars, wouldn't they be asking for trouble?

   So, when Roland and David were called by them to sign.

   The two of them stayed inside for less than half an hour before they came out with a freshly baked contract.

   Not only that, but Roland also saw for the first time, how awesome the boss halo is.

  In the contract of "Home Alone", although there is a supplementary agreement on the bonus, it is also the ultimate benefit that David obtained by spitting out the funds first, cutting flesh and blood, and then negotiating.

  If it’s just about the salary, Roland only got more than five thousand dollars.

   That's not as much as David paid Mohamy!

   But now?

  No disputes, no quarrels, no lawyers, no conversations...

  Under such silent negotiations, Roland—

   Received a reward of one hundred thousand dollars.

If Roland is very satisfied with the sudden increase of twenty times the basic salary, then the reward clause in the contract really stunned him, because he never thought that he would be able to play in "Terminator 2" In the project, get the bonus contract.

   "The film's global box office has exceeded 300 million, and a one-time reward of 1 million will be given?"

   "If it breaks 400 million, will the one-time bonus be increased to 2 million?"

   "If you break 500 million, you can get the full reward of 3 million?"

  When Roland raised his head in bewilderment, Samantha who heard this exclamation looked normal.

   "There is no problem with the terms. I only talked with them after seeing the agreed bonus terms of "Home Alone."

   "Don't have psychological pressure, the bonus after the box office release is equivalent to nothing for the production team."

   "The money will not interfere with the filming of the film, you don't have to worry about it."

  Samantha didn't mean to say much, and after a few words of comfort, she waved her hand to bid them farewell.

  The appearance of turning around and leaving is extremely free and easy.

  But the light words made Roland's eyelids twitch.

  Of course he knows that the bonus won't interfere with the production of the film in any way, but—

   This clause was negotiated when most people were optimistic that the movie would be a hit!

   To put it bluntly, this is completely the project team sending money!

  The producer of "Terminator 2" is so stupid?

   Shouldn't be...

Following Samantha's departure, when David found out that Roland was determined to hold on to this clause, he had already read the contract, and he patted the little guy on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Okay. , Roland, don't pay attention to these things."

   "This contract not only represents you, but also Samantha and the value behind her."

   "It is stipulated in the contract that if the publisher needs it, you have to participate in the whole process of publicity."

   "This is actually a gamble."

   "When "Home Alone" is released, someone will definitely find that your routine is exactly the same as Spielberg's."

   "In this case, even if Spielberg didn't publicly admit it, they can play side-by-side in terms of announcements."

   "What's more, you still have a film contract for "Captain Hook."

   "At that time, if "Home Alone" is successful, then you can become a point of publicity."

   "Spielberg personally recommended the boy for Cameron's film project."

   "Just the addition of the names of these two people is already worth more than three million bonuses."

   Yes, Cameron is not stupid.

   After seeing the copy, he also discovered Roland's performance problems.

  Since everyone is smart, there is no need to talk nonsense.

  The expected bonus of 3 million was not given to Roland, but to Spielberg who might be involved in joint publicity.

  The current Roland is definitely not worth three million, but at the same time, three million will definitely not buy the name Spielberg.

   "Then how much is their commission?"

   Hearing David mention the whole announcement, Roland can understand.

   But while understanding, he also wanted to know how much money this agent, led by Spielberg, would take away from him.

   In the face of his inquiry, David did not hide anything, "The project pay is 20%, and the endorsement contract is 10%."

   "Even if you can take away 3.1 million in its entirety, 620,000 of it will still be taken away by her."

   "You may think twenty points is a lot, but to them, it's just a symbol."

   "Besides, we only signed for two years. After two years, we can talk again."

   Twenty percent and ten percent?

  When Roland heard these two numbers, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

  Although this figure was several times higher than the normal brokerage appointment, Roland didn't care.

   If the other party needs it, it doesn't matter if you turn around.

   No matter how much money you earn, isn’t it still spent?

  If money can buy the identity of Zemeckis’ disciple and Spielberg’s disciple, there will be countless people paying out of their own pockets and rushing straight to him.

   Not to mention, less than a month after signing the brokerage contract, the other party has already helped him win "Terminator 2"!

   Compared with these opportunities that money can’t buy, what is money?

  The point is that the other party only signed with him for two years.

  Two years later, there are two epic projects that will be underwritten. When the contract is re-signed, it will naturally not be at this price.

   Moreover, 620,000 is really a symbol for guys like Spielberg.

   Take the money for the sake of proving to others that you are mine. As for the real use?

  You tell the guy with a net worth of more than 100 million yuan that after completing this order, it will take about a year or two to earn more than 600,000 yuan.

   Isn't this a joke?

   Each of their projects is worth tens of millions, so what is more than 600,000?

  After clarifying the key points, Roland didn't bother with these small things any more.

  He didn't even ask David what his economic company was.

  Because the agency company that has a relationship with Spielberg is only CAA!

   Handed over the contract to David for safekeeping, and he himself got into Cameron's office, wanting to lick his face and ask for an autograph.

  However, after he ran over, he learned that Cameron and Spielberg had already left when David arrived.

   This result disappointed Roland, but he was not discouraged.

  After the filming started, he had plenty of time to pester Cameron.

  Although everything he has obtained now can be attributed to the time loop, but at the root of it, isn’t it still modest and eager to learn?

  Since this is the case, squeezing Cameron dry is Roland's latest goal.

   After taking the role and signing the contract, David, who had nothing to do, left first.

  Roland, together with Mohamy, returned to the previous restaurant, and shared his joy with Charles, who had been waiting for a long time.

  After learning that Roland had completed all the procedures at the speed of light, Charles even smiled and congratulated him, congratulating him on his wish come true.

  That night, Roland obeyed and invited the other party to dinner.

   By the time he and Charles parted, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

   But even so, when he returned home, he was still greeted with a smile.

  Two little ones who hadn't slept rushed forward, holding Roland in their arms, wanting to hear him tell what happened today.

   After seeing that his two younger sisters wanted to wipe out Roland, James, who was holding the comic book, suddenly felt that the little spider in his hand didn't smell good.

   This is my cabbage!

  Why are they playing pigs!

  When Roland came to play before, they were never as excited as they are now!

   James is not clear, this is actually the difference in the circle.

  No matter how young Ashley and Mary are, they are also people in the circle, dealing with cameras every day.

  Under the influence of their ears and eyes, they are of course interested in the gossip in the circle.

  Even if they don’t understand a lot of things for the time being, but—

   It's okay to listen to Roland's experience as a story.

   It's a pity, maybe Roland's storytelling ability is not good enough, and the two little lolis couldn't stand it before they said a few words.

   After handing over the sleeping little guy to Ganetti, Roland was also ruthlessly kicked out of the house by James.

   "Hey, it's really unreasonable!"

   "Aren't I just holding your sister and talking about the mountains? Is it necessary to treat me like this?"

   "I even bought you a comic book, really..."

   How could Roland fail to see James' little thought?

  If he wasn't in a good mood today, he would definitely argue with the other party.

   After casually complaining a few words that the other party couldn't hear, Roland returned home and took a shower, and then quickly climbed into bed.

   He has been studying continuously for almost two months before, and he doesn't want to face the spoken language anymore.

  From now on, he wants to give himself a three-day vacation, as a way to treat himself and celebrate.

  Unfortunately, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

   Want to rest, it's not that simple.

  Early the next morning, Roland received a congratulatory call from Chris Columbus.

  In addition to him, Joe Pesci and others who heard the news also called to congratulate him on getting the role, and even John Hughes, who didn't get in touch very much, sent him a text message.

  Listening to those words of congratulations, Roland certainly understood that all of these were due to Spielberg's influence.

  Of course, if his social circle is wider, then now, there may be dinner invitations and party invitations.

  If Roland could still cope with the changes in his social life, the sudden lesson made him a little confused.

  After answering the phone, before he climbed back into bed again, Ganetti regretfully told him that in the next three months, he might have to accept the pre-training arranged by the crew.

"Terminator 2" is a sci-fi action movie. Even though the script does not include many fighting scenes for John Connor, Cameron doesn't want the child he found to run two steps, and he will be out of breath, let alone Well, if he has professional training, if he has any other kind of inspiration during the shooting, Roland, who has been trained, can also pick up the gun and shoot.

so-

  From basic boxing lessons, to fencing and horse riding, which have nothing to do with the movie, all of these are arranged for him.

  Looking at the densely packed schedule, Roland even suspected that Cameron was the teacher specially found for him because the crew couldn't run out of money.

   After all, it is too common for the producer to embezzle the funds of the crew. The guy next door named Ronan is just cheating the Arabs.

  However, when he thought of Cameron, Roland felt that the possibility of embezzling funds was unlikely.

  Compared with Spielberg, who likes to overstay, Cameron, who always overspends every time, is actually more hated by investors.

  Of course, even though Roland was wondering, he didn't refuse these courses.

   It’s cheap if you don’t spend money, and you don’t take advantage of it.

  However, even so, there is a course that still puzzles him.

  He can understand that the crew asked him to learn boxing and fencing, hoping that he can cope with Cameron's sudden unconstrained ideas during filming, but what the **** is learning fitness?

  Although the seventy-one-year-old Schwarzenegger can still resist being kicked by others, but—

  Roland doesn't want to become such a devilish muscular man!

  Because of that, if he had a dispute with someone in the future, and punched him after being angry, wouldn’t he have to kneel down and cry begging the other party not to die?

Note: ① At the beginning of the new century, Ah Tang was indeed seeking transformation. When he first debuted, he did cooperate with Coppola and Martin Sr., but it was not the two of them who really made him hook up with Spielberg. It was the director of "Mission Impossible", Brian Palmer, who recommended Tom to make "Minority Report". At that time, Tom was filming "Vanilla Sky", so Spielberg went to see it Then he played a cameo role in the film. ②Spielberg's economic contract has always been represented by CAA, but it is said that CAA only takes one or two points for the contract of their Jewish gang, and some projects don't even take a commission. ③At the 25th anniversary meeting of "Terminator 2", Cameron disclosed why John Connor didn't have a fighting scene in the movie, "Because children pointed guns at people, they would be assigned to NC -17 level, the Children's Protection Association will never allow such a scene to appear, but without a gun, John can't beat the T-1000." This is why, except for the high school student Little Spider, few movies will describe In the plot of children fighting, no one will have trouble with money.
