Chapter 6 Casting of the saw Crew

Of course, the biggest reason is that Kevin is just a director who has not yet proven himself, so there is no reason for him to have conflicts with other film companies.

 Therefore, the three companies have tacitly carried out a move to lower prices.

 Now, the director seems to want to make his final request, and they will also weigh whether to agree to his request.

 "I don't want a salary, but I want to implement a gambling agreement with you."

 "Oh? Interesting, let me hear it?"

 Dean said first.

 Kevin stretched out two fingers with a serious face and said:

 "The global box office is less than 20 million, I don't want a penny.

 " Starting from 20 million box office, if it exceeds 20 million box office, I want 1% of the box office divided into income, and for every 10 million more, this percentage will increase by 1. "

 Dean laughed out loud. Such a VAM agreement sounds very interesting, and he can feel the existence of that ambition from Kevin's eyes.

 Obviously, Kevin believes in his first movie from the bottom of his heart. The box office can exceed 20 million.

 In Dean's opinion, the possibility of this is no more than 1%.

 A cutting-edge director, with a movie worth 1.2 million dollars, can earn tens of millions of box office. This kind of fantasy theory It is absolutely impossible to happen.

 Therefore, this condition is completely acceptable.

 "Okay, I promise you, but the upper limit is at most 5%. "

 Dean said with a smile.

 In the words of the Chinese people, be careful to make the Wannian Ship, even if it is impossible, he must prevent the possibility of overturning. The

 Highest box office share of 5% determines that even if The chainsaw really exploded, and the money distributed to Kevin still won't make New Line Films feel heartbroken.

 "Okay! "

 After achieving his goal, Kevin shook hands with Dean, expressing that the cooperation between the two parties has been reached.

 As for fighting for more share, that's the same sentence, no one is a fool.

 In case the real box office has won 150 million U.S. dollars as it should have, then New Line Films may have to give him 13% of the box office.

 This huge profit is enough to turn New Line Films' face and tamper with the overseas box office. In this way, he may not even get the benefits he should have received.

 5% is already a pretty good result.

 As for the big jazz and big American film company, Kevin has already ignored it. From the negotiation just now, he has seen that only the new line film company is really interested in investing.

 The other two seemed to come to cooperate with Dean, and at the same time create a common oppression, so that he, a young man, would not be too difficult to deal with.

 The two sides reached a cooperation, and Dawson, who had been silent on the sidelines, stood up and began to discuss the specific details with Dean. After a lot of back and forth, an agreement was quickly signed.

 In the final analysis, it is only a small investment after all, and it can be decided as an executive of Dean.

 If it is an investment of tens of millions, then what must be involved is the entanglement of a negotiation team of dozens of people.

 After reaching an agreement, Dean quickly left the CAA building with two other people.

 In the room, only Dawson and Kevin were left in an instant.

 Picking up the contract on the table, Dawson smiled slightly and said,

 "Kevin, the members of the crew? And the actors, do you have any arrangements here?"

 Kevin waved his hand and said naturally,

 "Except for a few I'm in Apart from the positions already confirmed in the plan, you can arrange other people. For actors, you can find some newcomers to interview. If you definitely accept them, you can directly sign the agent contract on the spot." "Okay, leave it to

 Me Kevin."

 Dawson's face was full of excitement, this is the power of the director.

 A director client can bring numerous high-quality clients to CAA's agent, and if the director's movie box office is very successful, there will be a chain reaction.

 What he can do is to better serve Kevin in all aspects.

 After Dawson went to the Screen Actors Union to establish the chainsaw horror project, countless actors were able to see part of the news about the chainsaw horror from the actors union.

 After learning that this was a horror film with a small investment, countless actors felt that they seemed to be able to get a chance, and they all came to the interview place set by the crew.

 Needless to say, the big crew, but all the characters with names and surnames are selected by those actors who have experience or certain acting experience.

 It is often difficult for pure newcomers or newcomers with little performance experience to get this kind of opportunity.

 On the contrary, it is a crew with a small investment, because they cannot afford too much salary, they often choose newcomers.

 For these new actors, a famous role is often more important than money.

 In this case, three days later.

 Outside a certain office building near Hollywood, hundreds of people lined up brazenly. They came here with only one purpose, and that was to get an important role from the chainsaw crew.

 In the office, Kevin looked at resumes one after another in an orderly manner.

 The crew is divided into two parts of the interview, one part is the character in the play, which is being interviewed by the assistant director Dawson has found for him.

 On the other hand, Kevin himself was in charge of the interviews for the most important roles in the movie.

 "Salma Hayek?"

 Looking at the small photo in the resume and the name that seemed familiar but could not be remembered clearly, Kevin thought carefully.

 At the same time, Salma Hayek also entered the room.

 Looking at Salma Hayek in front of him, Kevin's eyes finally brightened.

 Compared with Salma Hayek in front of her, the dozen or so women in front of her are far behind. Not to mention, in her resume, she seems to have won the Mexican Novella TV Award in 1989. Best Actress, and Best Newcomer at the Novella Television Awards in Mexico.

 Being able to win an award shows that her acting skills are also good.

 The most wonderful point is that these awards are not common in the United States, and arrogant Americans do not recognize these awards.

 Therefore, for Hollywood, she is a rookie actor, and her salary can only be calculated according to the rookie.

 The only thing Kevin worries about, though, is whether she can let go on the show.

 Although the scale will not be too large, that is, the dew point.

 But it is also appropriate to give some benefits to the audience.

 Salma Hayek looked at the young director in front of her, and proudly puffed out her chest.

 She is full of mature temptations all over her body, especially the pair of big leather balls that have been developed, which makes people have an urge to step forward and grasp it.

  But Kevin knew that this pair of balls would definitely not be able to be grasped with one hand.

  It was also at this time that he finally figured out the future development of the actress in front of him.
