After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

People who are busy with work don't have time to enjoy such a view.

The car drove for about 5 minutes, and the road gradually showed an uphill trend. After driving for another [-] minutes, we came to a villa.

Before entering, they passed the guard of a huge iron gate.

After Lite produced some proof, he was allowed in by the guards.

Obviously, this is the guard office in the high-end villa area on the side of the mountain. Unidentified people can't get here under normal circumstances.

The villa is surrounded by dense and neat shrubs about two to three meters high, which ensures a certain degree of privacy inside the villa.

After walking along the bush path for more than ten meters, after a turn, the gate of the villa appeared in front of them.

Lite took out a bunch of keys, tried them out, and after finding the corresponding keys, he opened the door and let Kevin and Julie in.

As soon as they entered, the well-maintained open-air swimming pool appeared in front of them, and Julie cheered immediately.

Owning a residence with a swimming pool is every American's dream, especially in such a nice place.

After turning around the swimming pool, Julie followed the two to the house.

The exterior wall is mainly milky white, which looks very comfortable. The outside is a layer of huge transparent glass, and the living room is completely unprotected from the outside.

Entering it, the layout of seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms makes the room look extraordinarily comfortable.

Some furniture in the house is wrapped with cloth to prevent dust.

On the whole, Kevin feels very comfortable. The only problem is that cleaning staff is necessary to live in this house.

Otherwise, such a large room is prone to dust accumulation.

Moreover, it takes time to travel here. He has to buy a car. Thinking of this, he wants to hire a bodyguard in an instant.

At the same time, he also acts as his own driver and bodyguard.

As a rich man, it is still necessary to take good precautions. No one knows whether he will be targeted by kidnappers.

But that's all for later, what we have to do now is to buy the house.

Looking at Lite who was still introducing, Kevin interrupted his speech and said:

"Okay, I've decided to buy this house, you can contact the owner directly, I want to move in sooner."

Lite immediately put away his words, and with a smile on his face, he directly contacted the owner.

.....

Two days later, after all the procedures were completed, Kevin paid nearly $700 million for the house, and finally made the house completely his own.

As for the process, it is not worth mentioning. If you have enough money, nothing is a problem.

Professionals just spend money to do things easily, and Lite handles all the things throughout the whole process, and Kevin himself only needs to carry his bags and move in.

After buying a bunch of personal toiletries and quilts and the like.

Kevin and Julie officially live in this villa.

After a few days of unobtrusive meetings with Julie, Kevin finally started his business.

Proposal for the movie project of Get Out.

.............

Time passed quickly, and soon it was mid-November. After the initial peak and gradual decline of Chainsaw, it finally came to the time for the release.

The cumulative total North American box office reached a huge amount of 8652 million US dollars.

Second only to the US$2 million North American box office performance of [The White-Headed Detective 1 2/11: The Smell of Horror], according to the calculations of major film companies, it has basically locked in the [-]th place in the North American box office list in advance.

In other words, it was not able to make the list.

However, the major film companies did not take this film lightly.

You must know that White-headed Detective 2, as the sequel to the blockbuster movie White-headed Detective, has a lot of popularity, and the production cost is as high as 2300 million U.S. dollars.

Coupled with the cost of publicity, in fact, the movie box office alone basically didn't make much money.

It needs to rely on subsequent DVD and TV authorization and other copyright income to make profits.

And the chainsaw exclaimed that it was just a horror film with an investment of 130 million US dollars. Based on the North American box office results, it can also earn 8000 million US dollars if it is said overseas.

This also means that the total box office performance can reach about 6000 million.

At the box office, after all costs are removed, New Line Films can earn at least 6000 million to 7000 million U.S. dollars.

And there is follow-up income close to this amount, not to mention the birth of the IP of Chainsaw.

This means that New Line Films has secured a huge gold mine.

Along with this good news, the stock of New Line Films also rose sharply, and Shay's assets increased a lot invisibly.

After the film was released in North America, the five major Hollywood film companies sent executives to New Line Films to discuss overseas distribution, trying to get a share of the gold mine.

Of course, in the end, Shay chose Warner Bros., who had the best relationship with him.

...

"Ugh! It's finally done."

Kevin stretched in the living room, looked at the plan in front of him, and said to himself.

In fact, the proposal does not need so much time, but with a sexy beauty like Julie by her side, it is inevitable that there will be big problems in work efficiency.

Julie walked in from the outside. There is a hot water device inside the swimming pool, so that Julie can still experience the joy of swimming in this cool weather.

Wiping off the water droplets on her body with a bath towel, and seeing Kevin stop working, Julie asked with a smile:

"The plan is ready? The script is also finished?"

Kevin nodded.

"The heroine..."

Julie said with a little embarrassment, although she had decided long ago that she would give everything to become a big star, she still felt shy when seeing the opportunity in front of her.

But after experiencing the happiness of a rich man, she can no longer return to her original life.

If Kevin just abandons her like this, her only choice is to keep eyeing other rich people...

Chapter 26 Neighbor Nicolas Cage

Kevin laughed and said:

"Julie, of course the heroine is you."

"However, you have become the heroine, you understand?"

In the intimacy between the two, not all actions, Julie is willing to cooperate.

But now, after Kevin promised the heroine.

All of Julie's shyness and reluctance were covered by a huge surprise. At this moment, without Kevin talking, Julie had already started to do her best to let Kevin go straight to heaven.

.......

At the beginning of December, executives from New Line Films, Dawson, Kevin, Dean, and Warner Bros., and Johnson, who is in charge of foreign investment in films.

A total of four people watched Kevin's project proposal for the new movie attentively in the reception room of New Line Films.

The plot of the story of escaping from Deadly Town is very simple, and several people read it quickly.

Johnson was the first to ask:

"Why use a black man as a male lead?"

"The reason is very simple. If it is just a pure horror film, then the upper limit of this horror film is only 2000-3000 million US dollars at most."

"But the black man, as the hero, uses this evil witchcraft to refer to the persecution of black people by white people."

"Then killing all the white people in the town by the last black man can greatly stimulate the G-spot of the black people and make them walk into the movie theater."

"In this way, the upper limit of the box office will be greatly increased..."

Of course, the biggest reason for the black riots caused by the Rodney King incident, Kevin naturally couldn't say it in advance.

All he had to do was give a reasonable excuse.

As for whether Johnson accepts it or not, he doesn't really care. With a production cost of 300 million, Kevin himself invested 30% in the film and got a 30.00% share.

The remaining 70% is shared between New Line Cinema and Warner Bros.

Johnson nodded, accepting Kevin's explanation.

In the face of a successful director, Johnson will not question others casually, let alone this is just a small production with an investment of less than 300 million US dollars.

40% of Warner Bros., which is 120 million US dollars, is invested in a successful director like Kevin, so there is actually no need to consider too many things.

Dean trusts Kevin even more irresponsibly, and has already made an investment.

After everything was done, Kevin asked CAA to contact his team, and the time was set for shooting after Christmas, which is December 12.

During this period, Kevin needs to choose a suitable shooting location as the specific address of Deadly Town in the play.

April 4st, that is to say, counting the publicity and so on, Kevin has at most three months to shoot.

But from the perspective of Kevin, who has a specific picture in his mind, two months is actually quite enough. As for the actors, Kevin doesn't have to worry about it this time.

Except for the heroine's position, which he had to leave in advance, the other positions were all packed by CAA.

Of course, he asked for it, a black man with eyes.

.....

"The CAA package project, the latest masterpiece of cutting-edge talented director Steve Kevin, escapes from Deadly Town, and needs a black actor!"

At this time, Will Smith, who debuted as a rapper, learned the news through his friends.

I suddenly realized that this was the role I needed most.

As a black man, he is deeply aware of Hollywood's rejection of him.

He is so famous in his singing career, if he wants to enter the show business, the roles he can get are either villains, or gag supporting roles, or to put it nicely, the second leading role, the second male lead.

But these are not what he wants.

What he wants is the main character.

But he deeply knows that in Hollywood, there are too few movies with black protagonists.

As a well-known singer with film and television appointments in his hands, Will Smith hurried to the CAA building after getting the news.

After introducing himself, he was the first to be selected by Dawson as he met the requirements of the role, had no salary requirements, and was well-known at the same time.

And Kevin, who knew about Will Smith's visit, also decisively agreed to hand over the leading actor to him. As a price, he, who has won the Grammy Award twice, can only get a salary of [-] yuan.

But Will Smith has no objection to this point.

As a big singer, he is not short of money at this time, what he needs is an opportunity, after signing a film and television contract with Dawson, he brought the script of escaping from Deadly Town.

Will Smith decisively invited two old actors to hone his acting skills.

It is also useful to hold the buddha's feet temporarily.

...

In the distance, Kevin, enjoying the service of Julie Bite, did not worry about Will Smith's acting skills at all.

As a future big star, Will Smith naturally has a spirituality for acting.

And Get Out is a thriller that doesn't require much acting.

Movies are an art of shooting frame by frame, and as long as Kevin is patient, Smith can always hone it.

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rang, interrupting Kevin's enjoyment.

After getting dressed, Kevin opened the door.

Outside the door, Nicolas Cage walked in with the pizza he made himself.

The 27-year-old Nicolas Cage's face at this time is so cool and flirtatious, which makes people daunting, but after getting acquainted with him these days.

Kevin knew that, in fact, he was a very easy person to get along with.

They are neighbors to each other. After chatting outside for a few words, Cage took the initiative to stop by.
