The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter 77: Inside Story
In the coffee shop, looking at the female editor with long legs, big breasts and delicate face, Ronan once again suspected that the Jessica Felton in his impression was someone else.
The Latin girl on the opposite side wore a light-colored sweater, slim-fit jeans, and boots, giving her a clean and fashionable look.
Ronan picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and said, Jessie, long time no see. You are more beautiful, and it makes me wonder, which one is you?
Perhaps because of the innate advantages brought about by mixed race, Jessica Felton's wheat-colored skin is far more delicate than that of ordinary white women. She understood Ronan's words, touched her face, and said, Both of them are me. , people have two sides, it's normal.
She asked Ronan back: It is said that single men's homes are also messy.
Ronan shrugged: Not including me.
Jessica Felton was a little surprised: Aren't you single?
I'm single. Ronan explained, But I like a tidy and clean environment.
Jessica Felton smiled suddenly: So, working with you makes me feel at ease, there are not so many messy things.
Ronan immediately remembered the greasy feeling when the two met for the first time, rubbed his fingers unconsciously, and said in a joking tone: Don't worry, in my crew, no one will give up because of things other than work. Something bothers you.
No matter how thoughtful people are, if they see Jessica Felton in working condition, they will probably stay away.
Jessica Felton pinned a strand of long hair behind her ears, as if she didn't care about anything other than work: So, there's a new job?
Ronan smiled and said, I will fulfill our agreement.
The last time he hired Jessica Felton, he verbally agreed to let Jessica Felton be the editor of Death Comes.
Reaper? Of course Jessica Felton didn't forget.
Ronan nodded and asked, Do you have an agent?
Jessica Felton shook her head: Agents? No, those guys will only disturb my normal work.
Okay. Ronan said without hesitation, I'll negotiate a contract with you. How much salary do you want?
Jessica Felton said casually: Just a little more than last time. I have no money on hand. I want to buy the latest clipper. It is said that a new digital editing software has been released recently. I am going to buy a computer and related software, technical research is very expensive.”
The woman's salary was spent on learning and buying new equipment.
Ronan thought for a while and said, The weekly salary is 4,000 US dollars, and the working hours may be about ten weeks.
Okay. Jessica Felton laughed, maybe she was in a good mood, she laughed too happily, and her breathing was a little short of breath, the huge mountain shook, trembling and dizzying. She added: But I have one condition.
Ronan thought wrongly, and said directly: I will provide you with a full-time nanny.
If you don't think about anything else, you should also think about your eyes and nose.
Jessica Felton shook her head slowly: It's not that, my condition is that you should use me first for your next film.
Ronan didn't answer immediately, but just looked at Jessica Felton, who explained: I'm in a rising period now, and I need to get started with real movies.
Ronan responded: No problem.
The technology is outstanding, the price is not high, and they also bring their own bedding. Such editors are hard to find.
In fact, what Jessica Felton needs most is an excellent agent, who can bring her more job opportunities, but Ronan didn't mean to remind her, that's asking for trouble.
Jessica Felton took out her mobile phone to check the time, and took the initiative to leave: I have nothing else to do, I'm leaving first.
Ronan casually said: It's almost noon, shall I treat you to lunch?
No.
Jessica - Felton refused without hesitation: I am very short of time, and there is still a practice film that has not been edited.
Ronan stopped talking nonsense: I will call you when the contract is signed.
Jessica Felton left, and Ronan found a place for lunch before returning to Sand Sea for entertainment.
With the start of the two projects Reaper and Kingsman, Sandsea Entertainment has conducted another recruitment, and the company employs more than fifteen people.
The main job of these personnel is to serve two film projects.
The salary of the newly added employees did not bring much pressure. Just like last time, as long as there is a film project in operation, the salary of the employees will be paid from the crew.
People who don't take advantage of this kind of movie project without third-party guarantees and investment supervision must be business idiots.
Ronan also knew that if he continued to succeed, it would be difficult to have this kind of barbaric growth opportunity again.
Back in the office, he opened the mailbox to check the mail, and then called Mary in.
The budget of Kingsman was reduced to 10 million US dollars. Ronan has been thinking about it for a long time: The saved funds are set aside in the reserve fund of Relativity.
He glanced at the slightly crowded office outside through the glass, and said: In the future, the company will increase its manpower. It's too crowded here. You can ask someone to find out if there is any small office building in Burbank that can be rented out as a whole. The third floor Enough left and right.
Mary nodded: I'll do it now. She reminded: Ronan, you need an assistant.
Ronan understood: You post the recruitment announcement.
After Mary left, Ronan opened the copy he got from Professor Johnson and looked at it. This part mainly talked about the package service of the brokerage company.
There are many examples of successes and failures of packaged services.
After reading it for a while, he closed the bound copy, frowning slightly, thinking of Kingsman.
Compared with Reaper, which was well prepared, although Kingsman was officially established to earn tax rebates, the preparations did not actually make any progress.
The project has nothing but a script, a proposal, and materials for tax refunds.
This is a movie that is destined to lose money in North America. Ronan contacted several directors and agents, but the results were not satisfactory.
Maybe it can be handed over to a brokerage company for packaging and production?
Is there any agency willing to take over this hot potato?
This film must be filmed, and the main line of Arab agents saving the world cannot be changed. Only after in-depth contact will I know that the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is a giant. If you don't want to cause too much trouble in the future, you have to make the promised movie no matter what.
How well it's made is another question.
After thinking about it for a while, Ronan decided to ask George to release some news first, to see if any brokerage company is willing to step into this muddy water.
After calling George and processing several documents, Ronan saw an industry news on the Internet.
Lionsgate Pictures acquired the copyrights of more than 40 films in the former Embassy Pictures' film library at a total price of US$5 million.
“Sure enough, it was easier for the bankers to raise money.”
Ronan shook his head secretly: Lionsgate is very ambitious and eager to expand the company's heritage.
What is the biggest background of the film company? It has never been a new film, but a huge source of film in the film library.
Any one of the six major companies can earn tens of millions of dollars in net profits every year just from the old movies in the film library, and the dozens of cartoons in Disney's hands are even more priceless.
How much profit can those derivatives of cartoons generate every year?
Ronan was trapped by funds, otherwise he would not easily let go of the film library of the Embassy Pictures.
For him, the immediate distribution channel is more important than the long-term slow profitable film library.
It is a rare opportunity to meet a distribution company that is willing to sell and has relatively complete distribution channels. If you miss this one, you may not be able to find a suitable one in the next four or five years.
The profitability of the issuing company is very strong.
With a distribution company, he can go to the Sun Denis Film Festival after a while.
I remember that a film was shot very early, and it seemed to be a copyright deal completed at the Sun Denis Film Festival.
There is no distribution company under his hands, so even taking the huge risk of infringement is useless.
With a distribution company, it's completely different.
