American Comics Plane Trader
Chapter 63: Etheldan Energy
Because of the low latitude and the coast, the climate of Los Angeles is much warmer than that of Chicago.
Facing the warm sea breeze, the team soon arrived in Hollywood.
Although Pete and Brad had already prepared the hotel in advance, it was still early and it was not time for meals, so Josie and the others still planned to go to the two companies to have a look before talking.
Although Hollywood is already well-known in this era, compared with the future, it is still far behind, and the famous Avenue of Stars has not yet appeared-it was established in 1958, which is an opportunity for Josie. Come out, this kind of idea that can obviously increase the popularity, the Hollywood city government has no reason to reject it.
A group of people actually went to Rose Films, but they came out after a while, because as I said before, this is a leather bag company, except for an office space, it actually has nothing.
As a landlord, Brad is also a little embarrassed, but this is not something that can be changed by the energy of a puppet he used to be.
But there are a lot of girls' agency contracts...not to mention, all of them are of high quality, and those photos...are really artistic!
"It's pretty, isn't it?" In the car, Josie looked at the witnesses and flipped through a pile of photos, while Margot finally couldn't hold back and pinched him several times.
"Hey, I'm not picking and picking, is there any good seedlings worth cultivating!" Josie hurriedly apologized with a smile.
Margot rolled her eyes, saying that I believed in your evil. If I hadn't read the two scripts you wrote, I would have been quite conscious. The devil would believe that you, a little guy who has never been in the film industry, can do anything patterns.
That's right, the main reason why Margot trusted Josie so much was because Josie had prepared a few scripts in advance and let Margot read them, which she found very interesting.
Of course, it is said to be basic, but it is actually more like a plot outline.
After all, Josie did not play movies and could not write scripts.
But he can write novels!
In my previous life, I also followed suit and wrote some web articles in my spare time during work. Although the writing may not be very good, the specific plot of the story can still be explained clearly.
And although there is no computer these days, but there is a typewriter, and it doesn't take much time to get a story outline.
At that time, I will hand it over to a professional screenwriter to make changes, and it will be almost the same.
Anyway, the movies of this era are actually relatively rough in all aspects, and the dialogue is also very thin. As long as the actors perform well and the stories are attractive, the movies produced can basically make money.
Soon, they went to Sigl Films again.
Compared with the rose business, the situation of Sigel Pictures is much better. Although the scale is not large, it belongs to the sparrow, although it is small, it has all internal organs.
But when they went to the general manager's office, the group heard a quarrel.
"What's the situation?" Josie frowned when she heard the sound.
"Oh, he's a well-known star, because after the death of the previous boss, Sigel, he has been clamoring to terminate the contract!" After listening to a few words, the manager Pete understood what was going on, and replied immediately.
"Oh? There are stars in this company? What's their name?" Josie asked in surprise.
Whitney Frost? Hearing the name, Josie couldn't help but look at Margot.
They really didn't expect that she was really a well-known actress. They met each other once at the United Labor Organization's party last year, that is, the time when Captain America was there.
I didn't expect that the other party would be an actor from Sigel Films.
"Is her contract with the company very long?" Josie asked curiously. These days, actors' contracts are generally signed directly with film companies. Although the agent system has also appeared, compared to those large-scale Brokerage companies, the current brokerage companies have no right to speak when facing film companies, because there are too few platforms.
"It's not very long, there are still three years." Pete replied.
"Three years, it's not long, why? Our company treats her badly?" Josie asked.
"That's true. Although our company didn't have many movies in the past, she was considered our top card, and her treatment was no worse than that of some first-line stars. It's just that after Sigel's death, the company can get less support..." Pete explained.
"Oh, then there's nothing to say, just do business!" After listening to Pete's explanation, Josie nodded, and didn't say anything, let alone say anything to make her terminate the contract directly.
Although the other party's reputation is not small, in the end, no matter how famous you are, it's just a tool for the company to make money, and it can't turn the sky.
And there is no deep relationship between the two parties, just a one-sided relationship.
So Josie doesn't take her too seriously.
But immediately, he saw the embarrassed look on Pete's face.
"What? What's the problem?" Josie looked at him and asked.
"It's like this, Mr. Kahn, the reason why this woman dares to make trouble is actually because she recently fell in love with a big business man, who is not easy to mess with!" Pete leaned closer and whispered.
"Business big guy? Who?" Josie frowned.
"Carl Wen Chadwick! The boss of Etherdan Energy Group!" Pete whispered the other party's name.
Like Whitney Frost, Josie didn't have much impression of the name Carl Wen Chadwick, mainly because although he had watched most of the Marvel movies in his previous life, he was like Agent Carter. I haven't watched the spin-off series, so I don't know what the two names mean.
But Josie has heard of Estherdan Energy.
One is because the energy industry has already been included in Josie's future development plan list after the plane trader communicated with Yuri, a technology leader, so it is natural to have some understanding of the energy industry related to the United States.
Ethelden Energy is one of the largest energy groups in the United States today, controlling the power supply of many large cities in the United States, such as New York and Los Angeles, and its strength is quite strong.
Another reason is because this company is one of the participating companies in the ongoing Manhattan Project.
Of course, the Manhattan Project was secret.
But when investigating the energy industry in the United States, Josie found that many energy groups were involved in a project called the Manhattan Engineering District in Tennessee. As a time traveler, it was hard not to think of the famous Manhattan Project. go up.
It's no wonder that Pete feels that this matter is difficult to handle.
If this actress really falls in love with the boss of such a company, then it can be said that she has become a phoenix by flying on a branch.
