22 $30 Million

As the director of a blockbuster film, his arrival was warmly welcomed by New Line Cinema.

As soon as he entered, he was led into a very luxuriously decorated reception room.

Dawson waited early with his lawyer.

After a short break and a little snack in the office, Dean arrived in a hurry.

"Kevin, are you having fun these days?"

"It's pretty good. There is only one sentence that has given me the feeling these days. It's good to have money!"

Kevin's face deliberately revealed that he was spending a lot of money in the past few days.

A wry smile suddenly appeared on Dean's face, and he stopped circling.

They even brought lawyers, and there is nothing to say, just to sell the follow-up copyright of Chainsaw at a good price.

"Kevin, how much do you want to sell the follow-up copyright to Chainsaw?"

Kevin slowly stretched out three fingers.

"Thirty million dollars? Impossible!"

Dean's face changed suddenly.

Kevin this amount is undoubtedly a lion's mouth.

"Don't worry, the Chainsaw Horror itself, according to preliminary estimates, will bring you nearly 100 million US dollars in revenue, that's all right."

In terms of the box office alone, excluding the share and publicity expenses, according to this trend, it can earn nearly 100 million profits for the New Line Film Company, not to mention other follow-up income.

However, with part of the copyright in Kevin's hands, this part of the income is undoubtedly much less.

Now Kevin is selling all subsequent income and copyrights to the New Line Film Company. Although the reported price of 30 million US dollars is a bit high, it is not a loss.

Just make less money.

Dean's face softened a little under Kevin's reminder, and Dean was about to speak and continue to talk about the price.

Kevin continued:

"Two scripts for Chainsaw, and my ability to be named a producer, while being able to fully cooperate with your publicity."

Kevin directly took out all his sincerity.

The script is the foundation. For low-budget films, it depends on telling a good story.

The two scripts that continue the world view of Chainsaw and can continue to promote in his name have guaranteed the possibility of making money for the next two Chainsaw to the greatest extent.

At least the 30 million US dollars should be able to be earned back if there is no accident.

Of course, this time, Kevin can only get the fixed salary of the editor and the leather maker, and don't even think about it.

"This···"

Dean hesitated for a moment and said:

"I go out for a while."

Kevin nodded, obviously, this is to go out and find someone who can make this decision to make this decision.

...

"Kevin, are they really going to pay $30 million?"

Dawson on the side finally couldn't hold back after Dean left and asked.

Although he knew the price would not be low, he only thought it was ten million dollars.

Unexpectedly, Kevin directly asked for three times the price, which is 30 million US dollars.

Even his agent was frightened, but he also hoped that the deal would be done.

CAA can take 5% of Kevin's income, which is the standard for A-level clients, and Dawson, as Kevin's most direct broker, can share 1.5% of this 5%, and the rest is paid by The company shares with other CAA brokers who serve Kevin.

That is to say, if this transaction is completed, he will start with hundreds of thousands of dollars.

This made Dawson realize for the first time what it means to have a high-end client like Kevin.

I couldn't help but once again praised myself as a hero, signed Kevin early, and cooperated very happily.

Kevin has no problem with the commission they take from his own income, after all, the CAA's help is quite useful to him.

Without the help of CAA, his start could not have been so smooth.

Not to mention, if he was looking for investment everywhere with the project proposal, he would not know how many times he would hit a wall, and he would not necessarily be able to obtain investment.

Kevin is a person who advocates cooperation and win-win, and CAA's resources are worth the money he pays.

"Trust me, they will, I have calculated it in detail!"

"This transaction, apart from the fact that it takes time to repay, is almost pure profit. If they don't want to, I don't mind handing over the follow-up copyright of Chainsaw to others."

"At the Beverly Hills party, Jeff Robinoff, the president of Warner Bros., expressed his interest in the follow-up rights to Chainsaw..."

Kevin spoke slowly, his tone full of confidence.

"Who said that the copyright of the Chainsaw Horror should be handed over to someone else!"

Shay stepped in and laughed at Kevin's words.

"Isn't it 30 million dollars? Our New Line Film Company bought it!"

Under Kevin's commitment, there are two sequels to the bottom.

After deliberation, Shay decided to directly buy the follow-up copyright of Chainsaw for $30 million.

To put it bluntly, Shay chose to make big money instead of quick money.

Kevin also had a smile on his face.

"make a deal."

After the cooperation was reached, the atmosphere suddenly became very harmonious. In this harmony, Shay also took advantage of the opportunity to talk about Kevin's next work.

"Kevin, your next work should be handed over to New Line for operation and investment. Believe me, New Line Film Company is your eternal backing."

"All the works are handled by you, and no one else can interfere. The leather maker only cares about the money and nothing else. The actors are all up to you!"

These words can be said to have given Kevin the greatest director rights. Of course, the most direct reason is that Kevin's second film will still only be produced at a small cost.

Otherwise, once the investment of tens of millions of dollars is involved.

Spielberg can't get so many rights when he comes.

"Theoretically, there is no problem, but in order to get a better schedule for new movies and more big screens, I suggest giving some of them to other film companies with sufficient strength."

Kevin suggested seriously.

For Kevin, this is the choice that maximizes the benefits.

Shay thought for a moment and agreed immediately.

The shock of Chainsaw's shock has made many film companies envious. If the next Kevin's film is still on its own, when it is released, I am afraid that whether it is on the big screen, publicity or schedule, I am afraid that Something went wrong.

The Chainsaw is thriving this Halloween. I don't know how much hatred it has attracted, and the new line is making money.

If you don't go out and pay the protection fee, you will be targeted in minutes.

They must not yet be the Big Five.
