Legendary Hollywood Producer

Chapter 39: No problem (recommendation ticket. Please collect it.)

Generally speaking, it is impossible for an actor to reduce the pay for commercial films. The pay for your film has been reduced. Can the pay for the next movie be reduced as well? Once you start this head, it won't be easy to end it.

Besides, it's not the kind of movie to win awards. In Chong'ao movies, people often don't want to participate in the performance. That is not a concept, and the rules of playing are different. Jin-Kerry quietly watched his agent Sanger argue for him, just to get a salary that meets his worth.

He never interrupted. It was their job for the broker to strive for the best conditions for the client. Although Kim Carey himself felt that this was a good story after reading the script, but the film was too complicated. It was not that a good story would lead to a good box office. He still understood this.

Roman's brain hurts a bit. Negotiation is not something he is good at. The agent said Roman wants to agree to their terms. If it weren't for the film budget of 15 million, the director's remuneration plus the actors' remuneration must be controlled at about 10 million, and Roman would have to leave a little space for several other roles to look for actors. Maybe he agreed. Hey, this agent is too cumbersome.

Negotiations are still going on.

Roman’s saliva is almost dry, and he can only try to convince Sanger, “Manhai Entertainment has sold two movies in a row. As long as this movie reaches that level, I will give you even more conditions. Great."

That said, yes, but who knows if you will sell for hundreds of millions, if one is a good box office in North America, Sangler feels a little worried about betting on overseas markets, that is not UTA’s sphere of influence. It's hard to check if you want to.

"Let’s do this, Mr. Roman, let’s take a step back each. US$5.5 million plus 3% of the North American box office profit and 1% of the overseas market, is that okay?" Sanger also wants Kim Carey to join this department. Movies, after all, such a highly produced comedy movie hasn't been made in a few years, and Sanger has to live.

"Okay, I agree." Roman also agreed. This is similar to his conditions. If the overseas market is good, his conditions will be more favorable.

Sanger said a few words to Kim Carrey, to the effect of telling him the result of the negotiation and the price paid has been lowered a bit, but the share of the share has been higher.

Kim Kerry has no opinion, Sanger is professional in this regard.

After the salary has been discussed, it is about the welfare of Kim Carey himself in the crew.

As long as these things are not too much, Roman will generally agree, these are normal treatments, and there is nothing to fight for.

Two days later, Manhai Entertainment officially signed an actor contract with Kim Carey, which stipulated the following benefits:

One is that all kinds of propaganda should take Jin-Kerry as the main propaganda target;

The second is that there will be a separate car during the shooting period to take care of pick-up and drop-off and rest during daily shooting;

The third is to arrange media activities, and you have to greet Jin Carey’s agent in advance to determine the itinerary;

Fourth, after taking the shot, if Kim Carey takes a break, it would be a separate room.

......

These conditions are relatively normal, and Roman agreed. In fact, even those small actors who want to shoot must prepare a separate room to rest. Unless they have their own requirements, the special car transfer may not be so special. It is directly. Everyone got on a car and got it all done in one go.

After getting the star actor Kim Carey, the remaining actors will be easier to find.

Ed Helms, another actor sought by director Steve Oldcock, and one of the hosts of the well-known American TV show "Daily Show", although he has not participated in a movie, Steve said his I feel good about it.

After instructing him to come to audition, he successfully got the part of the honest office worker in the movie "The Hangover" with a salary of 200,000 US dollars. Because he is also a public figure, although he is still a pure newcomer in the film industry, Roman also offered him such a price.

The rest of the characters, except for a passerby character who is a fat black man, are all packed by CAA.

On that day, when one of their directors, Drette Woz, signed an agreement with Manhai Entertainment for the behind-the-scenes staff and some post-production staff, Roman asked him whether there were suitable actors.

The next day, Dreiter took some information about the actors and gave it to Roman. The people in it were all more in line with the movie's settings.

After watching their audition, Roman also decided.

The part of the bride was handed over to Catalina Morino. Although she had a wealth of performance experience, because she was a woman, she was paid only $150,000.

The role of the bride's brother is played by Passit. His figure fits the movie best, and he is also a fat man with a salary of 200,000 US dollars.

The bridegroom gave a pure newcomer. He didn't even have experience in acting in TV series, but Drett had implicitly hinted that Roman, this man's father was the film's soundtrack, and his strength was very good. Roman also understood in seconds, anyway, the bridegroom had very few scenes and was not very good, so he gave it to this relative.

As for the passerby character of the fat black man, Roman also had an idea in his mind.

This role must have its own characteristics, and smile awkwardly enough, Roman has a face immediately in his mind-the head of the Lakers, NBA star Shaquille O'Neal.

He is still on the Lakers, but his relationship with Kobe is very different.

Romain wanted to do it, so he immediately contacted the Lakers and put the phone in O'Neal's hands.

"O'Neal, are you interested in taking part in the shooting of a movie." Roman single-handedly went straight to the core.

"Excuse me, are you?" O'Neill has been doing recovery exercises because of a toe injury. Although he is free, he still doesn't know who the opposite is calling him to star in a movie.

"I am Roman from Manhai Entertainment. I have made two films, "Small Town Zombie" and "The Infected". Now I want to invite you to join the "Hangover" crew to play a role. Are you interested in making movies? "

Hearing what Roman said, O'Neal quickly asked the staff next to the stadium because he had not seen these movies, nor had he heard of Manhai Entertainment.

Fortunately, the staff had some understanding and helped O'Neill popularize it.

"Oh, of course I am interested, man, I think I should be in the performing arts industry. I am good at performing." O'Neill also expressed his thoughts after knowing the news is true. He is really interested in performing.

Then Roman carefully confirmed the cameo performance with O'Neal. O'Neal was not even willing to ask for a pay. He was really a big man with a conscience, Roman thought.
