Chapter 37
Chapter 37:
“Get used to this early, Director Kevin.”
“With your success as a director, there’s only going to be more and more of these people coming in and trying to get involved in your new film venture.”
To be honest, even Cruise himself wants to invest in Kevin’s next film.
In the same sentence, whether a movie will be a bad movie or not, the actors are the most emotional.
Shooting Kevin’s film made him feel his progress and passion, and he had never been so dedicated to a film.
From that time on, he knew that Kevin would not fail.
At least, Kevin won’t fail until this passion for movies wears off.
However, his investment ideas were held down by his investment manager.
In Hollywood, investing in movies is an extremely risky business.
I don’t know how many directors have made movies with their own money and ended up going bankrupt.
Sometimes Hollywood studios don’t welcome their investment, but they don’t dare to invest anymore.
This is why Kevin can easily get a 30% investment share.
They are also afraid that the film will fail and cause major losses.
Facing the words of Cruise.
Kevin exhaled and adjusted his mood.
Only at this time did he know that he really had a huge reputation in Hollywood.
Chapter 59 Kevin’s Rise to Fame
Although the first two films were big box office hits, they did not give Kevin the feeling of improving his status.
Only Mission: Impossible, which just came out at the box office a few days ago, seems to have already become famous in Hollywood.
Of course, the real situation is that the success of three consecutive films has proved Kevin’s own strength.
If the first two movies can be explained by luck, then Mission Impossible can no longer be explained by luck.
All this shows that Kevin has the ability to be an excellent commercial film director.
At this time, investing in his next film, the risk is infinitely reduced.
The icing on the cake, of course, is done by someone.
This is also the reason why Kevin came to the party this time and attracted so many people’s attention.
“I’ll get used to it, Cruise!”
Kevin with self-confidence.
He will never stop here, he will continue to climb higher and higher in Hollywood.
…
Cruise and Kevin greeted and left, followed by Ovitz of CAA.
With a full smile on his face, he said:
“Long time no see, Kevin!”
Looking at Ovitz’s smile, Kevin said indifferently.
“What’s matter?”
In the face of Kevin’s rude words, Ovitz was not at all angry, and now Kevin is no longer something he can deal with at will.
An excellent director, no one in Hollywood can block it.
It’s not like a star.
There is a world of difference between being a star and being a director.
Celebrities can easily ruin their future with only some black material, but directors are different.
As a director, no matter how bad his external reputation is, as long as the film is made well, these are not problems.
People don’t pay too much attention to the tidbits of the people behind the scenes, they only care about the works.
As long as Kevin is not involved in something too sensitive, there will always be film companies asking him to film.
“I am here to invite you to join CAA again. This time, we will not force you to completely adopt our CAA packaging system. At the same time, your agent Dawson can directly become our top partner, and you can get CAA’s highest level of customer service.”
“Join us again, Kevin.”
Ovitz said very sincerely.
Facing Ovitz’s invitation, Kevin just shook his head firmly, Ovitz just valued his status.
But now Kevin, there is not much demand for CAA.
MGM, Warner, they all have very mature late-stage teams, and Kevin can use them at will.
Although the future CAA has numerous big stars and great directors in its hands, the current CAA is still far from developed to that point.
And it needs to be emphasized that, even if CAA has such a powerful channel in the future, it will always serve customers.
In other words, if its ideas harm the interests of customers, then the huge scale of CAA is just a piece of sand.
He wants to laugh when he thinks that last year, Michael Ovitz was named by some magazines as the most powerful person in Hollywood’s entrepreneurial power list.
Those who say so, there is no doubt that they do not understand the situation in Hollywood.
The top tier of Hollywood will always be the top five film companies, and in the future, if you add one more Disney, it will only be the top six.
These six major film companies are the most powerful forces in Hollywood.
The reason why Ovitz seems to be able to compete with them is that CAA’s customers need CAA to seek more benefits for them.
Once the Big Six are willing to give in, CAA will immediately become a mess.
After all, CAA is nothing more than a group of brokers.
..
Ovitz was not angry, but called a few beautiful models over.
Obviously, the relationship between Kevin and the heroine of Chainsaw, and the heroine of Get Out, is no secret.
The man is nothing more than that hobby. He wants to repair the relationship with Kevin, and naturally he has to start in this area.
Then Ovitz drifted away, leaving the beauty model and Kevin to get along by himself.
Several beautiful models praised Kevin with their own thoughts.
It’s a pity that they have this intention, but Kevin is not interested for the time being, or Kevin is only interested in future stars.
As for these ordinary beauties, to be honest, with his current status, there are as many as he wants.
Just then, an actress that Kevin was familiar with in the future came over.
“Hello, Director Kevin!”
Milla Jovovich stared wide-eyed, sizing up the director who had recently gained fame in Hollywood.
His eyes were full of curiosity.
“You are?”
Although Kevin knew her well, he couldn’t remember her name for a while.
“My name is Milla Jovovich, and I’m a young actress.”
Kevin was taken aback for a moment, the heroine of the future Resident Evil?
At the age of 18, she is a bit amazingly beautiful. She is indeed a Ukrainian beauty.
Kevin has seen her **** photos in the future, and I have to say, they are quite tempting.
Compared with Milla Jovovich, several other models are inferior in body and appearance.
Seeing that Kevin seemed to be more interested in Milla Jovovich, although several models were unwilling, they had to leave Kevin’s side to find other opportunities to enter Hollywood.
With a little interest, Kevin reviewed his memory and said:
“You are the heroine who returned to the blue coral reef. I have seen that movie and it was very good.”
Milla Jovovich’s eyes lit up.
Since the filming of that movie, she has never been able to get any good movie resources.
The director in front of her, as long as she has any resources at hand, is enough for her to work hard in Hollywood for a long time.
Seeing how Kevin seems to be interested in himself.
Thinking of the unspoken rules in Hollywood, Milla Jovovich was stunned and leaned directly towards Kevin.
With Kevin’s appearance, even if he was unspoken, he wouldn’t be so disadvantaged.
Milla Jovovich, who thought so, sent out his invitation directly.
“Director Kevin, do you want to share with me the story of the blue coral reef?”
Kevin is all too familiar with this kind of direct invitation.
After half pushing, Kevin was pulled into the hotel room by Milla Jovovich.
As soon as he entered the room, Kevin was thrown onto the bed by Milla Jovovich, and then the outer packaging was removed.
Right here, Kevin suddenly thought of a very serious question:
“Are you an adult?”
European and American women are too mature in appearance, and sometimes it is difficult to judge age by appearance.
“I’m 18!”
As soon as Milla Jovovich’s words came out, Kevin no longer hesitated and became entangled with Milla Jovovich.
The young body brought Kevin a completely different experience from Julie.
Let him be in a fairyland.
Especially since it was her first time.
Kevin never thought of this.
But it seems to be normal. Before the age of 18, no one dared to attack her. After the age of 18, she happened to meet her, which seemed very reasonable.
…
During the party, the executives of Paramount and Warner were all looking for Kevin at this time, trying to negotiate with him about the next movie in advance.
Three consecutive film sales made Kevin the most sought-after director in Hollywood at this time.
They’re afraid of being taken first by others, which would be a waste of their relationship with Kevin.
Chapter 60 New Item Pirates of the Caribbean
After lingering with Milla Jovovich in the hotel and leaving her his personal business card, Kevin returned to the party.
At this time, it was only after ten o’clock in the evening, which was the busiest time of the party.
Kevin’s reappearance immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
The top executives of Paramount and Warner Bros. gathered around and congratulated Kevin.
Kevin agrees one by one.
If he just wants to be a simple director, then in fact, he doesn’t need to pay attention to these interactions.
However, Kevin’s ambition is not just a director. In the future, cooperation and contacts with major film companies are indispensable. In this case, it is natural to manage these contacts well.
After a circle of communication process, dozens of public business cards were distributed on Kevin’s body, and at the same time, dozens of business cards were added to his body.
The crowd dispersed, leaving only a few absolute top executives of the film company.
Of course, it’s still Kevin’s old acquaintances.
Warner’s president, and Paramount executives.
Paramount’s chief operating officer, Ledrick Hensbarry, because the name was too long, Kevin silently arranged the name of Barry for him in his heart.
