Putting all the scripts on the table, Andy narrowed his eyes, and he could see Nathan who was stunned, Roy who was slightly surprised, and Renly who raised his eyebrows slightly. He was very satisfied with the results, he chuckled and explained, "These projects just show a tendency to inquire, or they open up possibilities, they are not formal invitations, just like the original ones. 'Thor'."

The selection of actors for a work can be roughly divided into two situations. One is to lock down an actor, such as "anti-cancer me" and "detachment". This is the partner they are determined to win, and they directly enter the conversation stage. Exchange each other's ideas through face-to-face communication to see if each other is suitable - it is also possible that the director originally liked the actor, but changed his mind after the interview.

One is like "Buried Alive", "Fast and Furious 5", "Pacific War", open auditions, open up all kinds of possibilities, they may send invitations to actors they are interested in and invite them to audition , but this "invitation" may be sent to a dozen different actors, while waiting for those unfamiliar actors to come and recommend themselves. Open recruitment is like that.

The scripts Andy brought today belonged to the latter. For commercial films, Renly's self-evidence is still not enough, and it's not up to the level of the former.

But even so, it's still incredible. After all, Renly has only just appeared in a commercial film, and it has achieved success smoothly and has entered the attention of major film companies. As a result, whether Andy took the initiative to recommend Renly to the film project, or the film company took the initiative to invite Renly to audition, the opportunities showed a geometric increase, and the possibility of development opened up at once.

6. Seven potential commercial film projects with possible cooperation? Such a level is definitely the first-line standard of Hollywood today, and it may not even be comparable to top box office stars such as Tom Cruise and Robert Downey Jr. It's not that Renly's box office potential is better than theirs, but that Renly's character possibilities are more abundant than theirs, and there are naturally more potential cooperation options.

"I just picked these projects initially, and I didn't read the script in detail." Andy's eyes fell on Renly. In the final analysis, it was Renly's decision to act in what work and at what level of remuneration. "However, I have comprehensively considered the subject matter, role, and investment scale, and believe that they are possible to develop."

Renly didn't rush to express his opinion, just looked at Andy quietly, but Roy, who was sitting next to him, took the initiative to ask, "What about the salary? Do you have a detailed plan?" This is what a manager must be concerned about. Focus.

"Yes." Andy replied with a smile, his eyes paused meaningfully on Renly, and then looked at Roy, "Six million to twelve million. If it is Universal Pictures, six A million is the bottom line; but if it was Warner Bros., I would try to get 10 million."

There are also differences among the six major Hollywood studios. For example, Warner Bros. is obsessed with visual effects blockbusters and is particularly daring to invest; for example, 20th Century Fox has a lot of trust in projects led by big-name directors and spends generously; Be bold.

Naturally, strategies are also different when it comes to getting paid.

What's more, the situation that Andy said is different. Universal Pictures may still be the protagonist after all, keeping pace with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, and the remuneration must be considered in a more comprehensive way; and Warner Bros. The project may be a brand new protagonist project.

"All from the six major film companies?" Roy really came from a professional background, and the way of thinking is very similar to Andy's.

Andy also noticed that this kind of conversation was completely different from Renly. Instead, he was more accustomed to this kind of professional communication, simple, clear, direct and effective, "No, there are other companies. If I remember correctly, There are two. However, the salary negotiation for a small company is more complicated. My target value is five million, and it depends on which project. "

More than 90% of the summer commercial blockbusters are controlled by the six major film companies. The causes are very complicated, but it is simple and rude. It can be understood as the difference between rich and no money.

Small companies outside the Big Six tend to have lower investment costs. Even if they have sufficient funds, they need to make full use of every money. Therefore, when they choose actors, the remuneration is relatively tight, and they are more willing to choose actors with good quality and low price. Or big-name actors take the initiative to cut prices.

Roy thought seriously for a moment, looked at Renly, and his eyes flashed slightly. But he was also worried that Renly didn't understand what he meant. After all, the two people's cooperation time was too short, and then nodded as a supplement, as if to say: Your agent's judgment is correct.

Renly sat next to him, but smiled.

In fact, he could feel the secret rivalry between Andy and Roy. Roy was observing Andy, and at the same time, Andy was also examining Roy.

By convention, no matter whether the project is suitable or not, Andy will briefly read the script first, and have a general understanding of the characters and the story, not only because he needs to make a judgment on the project, but also because he understands the importance Renly places on the script.

If it is another agent, generally speaking, when they find out about the investment scale and the prototype of the cast lineup, they will show the project to the artist first, but after experiencing the "Thor" thing, Andy knows that Renly does not eat this. set. Therefore, Andy has always adhered to this practice, and the quality of the projects recommended to Renly several times before and after is really good.

But today, Andy didn't look at it, and moved all the projects in one go. Renly can be sure that these programs must be spotty, good and bad. Andy is obviously not trying to torment Renly, so the purpose is obvious: Roy Lockley.

Reading the script is a time-consuming and energy-consuming thing. If it is a script that is determined to participate, then forget it. Even if the actor is unwilling, he must read it. Few of the actors and others will choose to hand it over to the manager. After the manager's preliminary screening, the actors will make their own judgments.

There are even actors who don't read the script from start to finish, completely following the manager's recommendation, who picks the project for them and then signs it directly. Even after arriving on the crew, the actors crammed and recited the script. Bruce Willis is a typical representative of the industry. He was also fired from the "Love in Rome" crew by Woody Allen for his bad behavior of not reciting his lines.

Even an actor like Renly who is willing to read the script himself cannot read every script in the first and second rounds of screening. Andy and Roy must do a good job of screening. work. Therefore, the work of the manager is very important. If the manager loses his head, or accepts bribes, or slanders, the consequences will be disastrous.

Andy has absolute confidence in himself, he thinks he knows enough about Renly's interests, hobbies and preferences, and naturally he will pay more attention when choosing scripts. But what about Roy? What is Roy's style? What is Roy's orientation towards commercial works? Can Roy be trusted? Will Roy think about Renly? Can Roy and Andy work together again? Will future collaborations lead to more disagreements?

That's what Andy's temptation means.

Renly noticed it, but he didn't say much. In fact, for Renly, who is a rebirth, it has never been difficult to read the script, because he has seen most of the finished movies in the last life. However, Renly acquiesced to Andy's temptation. Just like when we first cooperated with Andy, the future cooperation road is still very long, and everyone needs to run in with each other.

After that, Roy and Andy continued to talk again, expressing their own views on Renly's next work, and both of them had the same opinion - a commercial film.

The filming of "Anti-Cancer Me" just ended at the beginning of the year, and now "Transcendence" is coming to an end. Renly has starred in a total of four works in the past year or so, and he is definitely a model worker, and the shooting of each work is very good. Hard. Therefore, both of them believe that art films can slow down a little bit and choose scripts carefully. If Renly has a script that he is really interested in, then naturally he can't miss it; but if not, don't worry for the time being.

Relatively speaking, the success of "Fast \u0026 Furious 5" has made Renly's commercial value soar. Regardless of the contempt of Universal Pictures, their willingness to consider the idea of ​​starting a rumor is the best affirmation for Renly. . Now appearing in a commercial film, and really stirring up the main beam, then Renly's position in the industry will have a substantial leap, and it will truly benefit the brilliant paintings of the past year.

The most direct benefit is that in the future negotiation process, Universal Pictures will no longer be able to maintain such a lofty attitude.

"Renly, what do you think?" The two of them were talking dry, but Renly sat beside him without saying a word. Roy turned his head and asked.

Renly shrugged lightly, "I think I need to rest tonight." Roy and Andy were both stunned by this answer, and Nathan smiled sullenly beside him, "The specific discussion , you can wait until it's finished. Until then, I need to focus fully on the filming."

"Of course, of course." Andy nodded with a smile. The main purpose of this time was not to disturb Renly, but to inform Renly that they had to make plans for the future, and this time Roy also will be involved. "Then we'll leave first, without disturbing your rest."

As soon as he left, Andy stood up and was about to leave, "Then these scripts..." Andy patted the thick stack of books on the table and cast his eyes on the inquiry.

"Roy, take it back first." Renly looked like he was throwing his hands at the shopkeeper.

Roy didn't refuse either. He nodded in affirmation, but he still asked, "Do you need to read it briefly?" Before the words were finished, Renly waved his hand in rejection, and Roy said the second half. Also swallowed in the stomach.
