Two days later, Steve Kevin finally walked out of the school with his project plan.
It is different from Chinese education.
American education, extremely loose.
It is very common to learn things in middle school and even high school in China, but the United States will not start learning until university.
Of course, Kevin knows it's all an illusion
It is an illusion that confuses the lower classes.
Those middle-class people support liberal education on the surface, but they don't take any remedial classes behind their backs.
The purpose is naturally very simple, to exclude most of the competitors for their children.
From this point of view, those who can be admitted to the University of Southern California generally have a good family.
And there is only one reason for orphans like Kevin to be admitted to the school.
That's his grade.
The logic behind it is actually easy to understand. A genius from a commoner like Kevin is the face of the school.
A portion of the admissions will also be accepted every year.
And those middle-class people are the foundation of the school.
After taking a penny out of his pocket and stuffing it into the bus, Kevin quietly came to a few kilometers away, under a building.
This is the creative artist agency, many people may be unfamiliar.
But it's another name, it can be said to be famous.
CAA, the world's number one brokerage firm.
The big names they have served include film stars such as Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman, and music stars such as Madonna, Beyoncé Knowles, and Justin. .
Kevin came here to find his agent.
That's right, his body was signed with a CAA agent very early on.
Step into the CAA building.
"Hello, do you have an appointment?"
The long and very beautiful big girl at the front desk asked kindly.
Kevin nodded:
"I made an appointment with my agent Dawson..."
Kevin glanced at his watch and continued.
"Just ten o'clock."
The beauty at the front desk checked the items in the registration office and said:
"Room 0306 on the third floor, your agent is waiting for you."
Having said that, the beauty at the front desk seemed to want to say something, with a little crimson on her face.
"Thank you."
Kevin ignored her expression and walked towards the elevator on the third floor impatiently. The biggest task of this trip was to convince his agent.
Since 1980, CAA has grown year by year, and now it has become a behemoth with an annual revenue of over 100 million US dollars.
And what CAA needs most is a talented director like him.
All this is because of the special mode of CAA.
CAA is obsessed with a model called project packaging, which in simple terms is a director-centric approach to collaboration.
As the director of CAA, after the director proposes a film project, CAA seeks cooperation from major film companies. Due to the scale of CAA, they can often sell actors, editors, lighting, etc. to this project. The logistical assistance of the series.
In this mode, CAA can make the best use of every resource of its own.
Of course, for directors, this is actually a good thing, they just need to create a good movie with their heart, and CAA can help them solve these chores.
The only thing that is unacceptable may be the major film companies, but under the circumstance that CAA has mastered a lot of resources, as long as their directors have successful experiences, they are often not short of investment.
Therefore, CAA has instead become a strong party.
"Kevin!"
As soon as he entered the room, Dawson, the manager, greeted him with a smile.
As Kevin, who is known as a genius director in Southern California, no one dared to underestimate him until he really failed, that is, before he made a movie and the movie failed at the box office.
Although the chances of success are not great, but there is a chance after all.
"Dawson."
Kevin sat opposite Dawson with a smile, and after sitting down, he continued:
"I'm here today for my movie project."
While talking, he handed the project plan in his hand to the past.
Dawson nodded and took the project proposal.
In fact, the reason why he was able to sign Kevin, who is known as a talented director, was exactly what he promised Kevin.
As long as Kevin can provide a real and effective film plan, he will use all his resources to promote the plan.
As a CAA bottom broker, he also needs such an opportunity to climb up.
Of course, if Kevin fails, the consequences will be equally severe for him.
However, after staying at the bottom of CAA for several years, he is no longer satisfied with his current status, but suffers from the lack of high-end customers in his hands.
Therefore, he tried his best and finally signed with Kevin.
As long as Kevin can get up, he can speak to the outside world and use CAA's packaging plan to recommend some potential characters to the crew system.
Of course, the premise must be to sign a contract with CAA.
A high-end director client with the potential to propel him to the position of CAA's top five partner.
For this position, he is willing to give it a try.
Of course, for all of this, his plan must be practical and feasible.
With consideration for the project proposal, Dawson looked carefully.
"Chainsaw Horror?"
Open the plan and start with the script.
With a thoughtful mood, Dawson looked carefully.
Regardless of the story, the standard of the script is purely based on the Hollywood standard writing style.
Don't think it's very simple, in fact, many people who are screenwriters for the first time can't do it.
From this point of view, Kevin at least pays enough attention to this project, not just fooling others.
The format was fine, and Kevin naturally started to look at the content.
The script is not long, just a few sheets, and serious Kevin finished it quickly.
After reading it, he fell into deep thought.
A successful movie always has a few characters that are firmly remembered.
As long as the characters in the movie can be vividly engraved in the heart after a few years or even ten years after watching the movie, then the movie can be called a classic.
And in this script, Dawson no doubt saw that potential.
In the script, the murderer 'Jigsaw' who controls everything is not killing without reason, but choosing people who he thinks are guilty or who don't value life because of whether people value their lives. Design various levels for them.
All of his levels leave a way for test subjects to escape after paying a certain price.
Many survivors have corrected their attitude towards life, and some are even grateful to him, while those who failed the test were marked by a puzzle-shaped skin cut off by John.
