Lan Li tonight is slightly different, but I can't tell a single reason. The three people in front of them didn't think much, they just went out as a blue gift and Paul, enjoying the time between friends, relaxing and relaxing, so they were in a particularly happy mood. Since Lan Li has already said "it's okay", it should be okay.

Roy noticed the enquiry from Lan Li and shook his head, "I don't know what's going on. Andy called and said, I must be there. I will talk about the specific situation after we meet. After we meet, just I have been waiting for you."

Andy took the conversation and nodded to express his affirmation, but before he could speak, the sound of gunfire came from the window again. The room fell silent for an instant, but did not panic. After waiting for a while, after the sound disappeared, An Di just continued, "Yes, I called Roy to come over."

"Now Roy is your manager. In the future, if there is a situation, I will only say Roy no matter whether it is official or private. Of course, you must be the first to notify you of important things, but in order to prevent you from being filming, Or maybe you are traveling..." Andy said briefly, and then saw Lan Li smile and nod his head to express understanding, and he braked in time.

Regarding the assignment of responsibilities between managers and brokers, there is no official strict assignment, and it is still necessary to slowly adjust in the process of cooperation. In Hollywood, it is not uncommon for managers to sell artists for profit, or managers and artists tore their skins because of profit. Even the relationship between brothers and sisters, even the relationship between close friends, is not immune.

There are even cases where the agent submits a project to the manager, thinking that his artist is very suitable, but the manager secretly conceals it, and then transfers it to another artist. The entertainer made a clean break and left.

In the final analysis, this is the artist's own measurement and control, how to make full use of managers and agents, properly manage their own business, and then achieve higher success. This is a science. Andy did not continue to explain, because he believed that Lanly clearly understood this, and he did not need to superfluous.

"In short, we need to cooperate well in the future, so I think we need to meet formally, and then formally communicate. Today’s matter can be said on the phone, but I need to go to Warner Bros. tomorrow to think about this. It was a good opportunity, so I came here." In a few words, Andy explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, "Lan Li, won't it affect your shooting work tomorrow?"

The situation during the "anti-cancer me" period is still vivid, and Andy is unavoidable to be a little rat-inhibited.

However, Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth, looked down at his watch, and said unhurriedly, "You have twenty-eight minutes." The ridiculous words calmed Andy, with Maitreya Buddha on his face. The smile became brighter and brighter.

"Then I will make a long story short." Andy cut into the subject immediately, "Now Universal Pictures is considering the issue of the sequel to'Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion'. I think their sincerity is not enough, and they did not give Lan Li enough respect; and Fan played an important role behind the scenes.” Andy didn't intend to say too much about Universal Pictures' behind-the-scenes actions. This is something he needs to deal with, and there is no need for Lan Li to know.

Roy raised his eyebrows and said directly, "Are you afraid of Van Diesel?"

"Hehe." Andy laughed freely, "He is the least important part. The reason why he is mentioned is only the attitude of Titian Meyer." The nonchalant tone revealed a thick disdain. .

In the eyes of laymen, the collision between the agent and the big-name actors is bound to be the actors gaining the upper hand, but this is not the case. Unless they are actors at the level of Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise, their influence on film companies is real. Even the six major film companies will consider their opinions, and other actors will still get rid of them. The identity of the "pawn" is not lost.

To sum it up simply, if benefits are at the forefront, then everything is easy to handle; if benefits are lost, then there is no use value.

Take Tom Cruise as an example. His importance is not just because of box office appeal. Otherwise, after "Mission Impossible", Cruise failed so many consecutive works, and the film company has long abandoned him; and It is because of his own brand benefits and the huge network of interests that he maintains behind him.

The name "Tom Cruise" is a brand in itself, a brand that has been in business for nearly 30 years. He can win the first money for the project for those unknown directors, he can promote those unknown actors who have never heard of names, he can quickly form an entire crew through familiar producers, and he can also use his own Friends exert influence on the college public relations of an awards season work...

Behind this name, a network is maintained. From big names such as producers to small roles such as filmmakers, from top film critics to amateur paparazzi, it presents a pyramid structure that constitutes an important part of the entire Hollywood world. It's not that they can call the wind and the rain, otherwise "Tang Brother" would not have been fighting for so many years without getting an Oscar figurine, but their extended interests can permeate all aspects of the film industry.

When an actor reached the height of Tom Cruise, they initially got rid of the identity of a "chess piece".

As for Van Diesel, although he is the producer of the "Speed ​​and Excitement/Affection" series, he seems to be infinite, but outside the series, his influence is very small. Once the "speed and excitement" The box office of "love" collapsed, and he was useless.

Therefore, if Andy wants to really suppress Fan, there is no need for confrontation at all. He only needs to put other actors on the waiting list of all action movies, Dawn Johnson and Jason Stan. Sen, Paul Walker, Matt Damon, Hugh Jackman, Jeremy Renner...Although action movies are no longer the glory they used to be, there are still a lot of male actors who want to be top. What's more, there are new actors who have never had a chance to make their debut.

Not only Andy, but other actors' own agents will also work hard to fight for it. Andy only needs to push from behind, and Fan will be embarrassed and miserable.

In Hollywood, there are countless ways to teach someone a lesson; there are also countless ways to teach someone a lesson and make the other person dumb eat coptis. Andy is a capable agent, and behind Andy is a more capable and innovative artist agent company. A "Van Diesel" has never been something he needs to worry about, and the impact of threats is not even as powerful as Chris Hemsworth.

Strategically despise the opponent, but tactically must pay attention to the opponent. In fact, in this sequel of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion", Fan is a stone that cannot be bypassed. This is the reason why Andy personally visited today, and even the reason why Andy will go to Warner Bros. tomorrow.

The important thing is not Fan, but Lan Li's attitude.

If Lan Li is preparing to star in the sequel of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion", how to cleverly grasp the advancement and retreat, frighten Fan, and at the same time make Universal Pictures compromise, and also fight for more rights and interests for Lan Li, in the sequel shooting. To be neutral and invincible, this needs to be planned slowly.

The situation is different now from the filming period of the fifth film. The important task of filming is not imminent. The importance of Lan Li requires constant addition of bargaining chips, trade-offs, and strategy. Fan can be taught, but the means of teaching must be carefully considered. After all, Fan is still the real power producer of the series. Conspiracy or scheming, it depends on everyone's ability to show off.

If Lan Li is not going to star in the sequel of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion", then things are a completely different situation.

In order not to affect Lanly's decision, Andy omitted all these considerations and went directly to the whole, "What do you think of the sequel? Universal Pictures' current plan is to shoot the two sequels together, as if' Pirates of the Caribbean’s second and third part are the same, and then there is an extra story for Hobbes, with Hobbes as the absolute protagonist. The story is filmed first, and then the sequel."

With such a generous hand, Lan Li couldn't help but raised his eyebrows slightly. But think about it carefully. Although the role of Dawn Johnson in the previous life was quite popular ~www.novelhall.com~, there was no rumor about it. So, is history changed because of his little butterfly, or is the story of the previous life also put on the table but failed?

Regardless, the determination and determination of Universal Pictures still impressed Lan Li. At least, in the "speed and excitement/emotion" series, Universal Pictures still showed the style of the six major film companies.

"There is also about the film pay." Andy's words still did not finish, "I know you don't care about the film pay, but I must care. Universal Pictures gave 3.5 million one, three packages with the same price. Agreement. My personal opinion, this is a figure that is very disrespectful, and it can even be said to be an insult."

Roy frowned and said in surprise, "What happened to Universal Pictures?"

Not to mention where Lan Li’s current remuneration can fall, perhaps after the tug of war, he will eventually settle at 3.5 million yuan, but now Universal Pictures has shown such a proud posture of superiority, which is obviously against Lan. Disrespect of courtesy.

Andy smiled without speaking, Roy reacted immediately, and then looked at Lan Li and joked, "Did you rob Fan's girlfriend, or what's the matter? I think your aesthetic taste should be the same Fan is different."

Lan Li shrugged, "Who knows it's not because of love to hate?" Such a bold ridicule made everyone stunned, and then they all laughed sullenly, "If you are so dissatisfied, then forget it."

So succinct, so succinct, that Roy and Nathan didn’t react. Andy was familiar with Lanly’s style. He seemed to have expected such a result a long time ago, but he still asked, "I thought you would If you want to continue acting, besides Fan, aren’t you getting along well with the rest of the crew? And there is Paul."
