"Pinkes, why did you come to see me specifically?" Rong Guang asked.

Those two pieces... let's call it good news! Sooner or later Rongguang will know, and sooner or later he will get the money. There is no need for Pincus to come to Cannes.

Pincus chuckled and said: "Rong, we at CAA have received internal information that the internal test screening of "Parasite" was quite successful. Harvey and his team predicted that the North American box office will exceed 40 million, and the global box office should be 780 million. And the award-winning

The possibility is extremely high, not just for those old European ones, but also during the North American awards season next year."

Rong Guang smiled and nodded. This is already a prediction based on the standards of a first-class art film. After all, it is difficult for an art film to have a global box office of over 100 million. Such a box office prediction is actually very promising.

However, Rong Guang sneered in his heart: Would I tell you? "Parasite" is not a first-class art film at all, but a phenomenal super art film. Whether it is word-of-mouth or box office, it will break your glasses!

Pincus continued: "But we at CAA have a different view."

"Oh?" Rong Guang curiously began to look at Pincus. Are they, CAA, so discerning? Can they accurately judge that "Parasite" is a phenomenon-level film?

Pincus raised his glass proudly: "Rong, don't forget Leonardo. Harvey and the others still greatly underestimated his commercial value. As for your novel, I have never seen so many crazy women.

When they buy it home, they may not even glance at the content of the novel. Just because on the title page, there are the words "A movie starring Leonardo"! Therefore, I personally and CAA judge that the North American box office will definitely exceed 50 million, and the global box office will definitely exceed 50 million.

The box office should be between 100 million and 120 million."

Rong Guang was dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, the basis of CAA was completely different, but the conclusion turned out to be the same?

But after thinking about it again, it does make sense. Leonardo was a legend during this period. His starring roles may have unpredictable chemical reactions.

This is actually like a top young star. If he suddenly stars in a phenomenon-level art film with explosive reputation, his fans will go crazy? It will be like having rabies, and he can bite people everywhere!

Did you see that my idol not only works very hard, but also has explosive acting skills! Sisters, take action and make the hot search headlines for a whole year——!

But no matter how red and purple little plum is, it should have nothing to do with him?

Rong Guang asked strangely: "Pinx, what are you CAA going to do?"

Pincus took a sip of wine and his eyes flickered: "Rong, isn't this a good opportunity for you? Take advantage of the release of "Parasite" and find a way to tie up Leonardo. Do you still remember those commercials you accepted last year?

This year we will continue to cooperate and strive to earn another one or two million?"

Rong Guang suddenly realized that this was the reason.

Seeing that Rong Guang was already a little tempted, Pincus continued to persuade: "Rong, if we only look at word of mouth and your personal commercial value, as long as "Parasite" is released, especially after the awards season, you will definitely get a lot of recognition in Hollywood.

Improvement. But just looking at your income from "Parasite", I can assure you that it depends on Harvey's mood. The most he can give you is just over 2 million. But your investment is 3.4 million, of which

You get 2 million in cash, and the rest is your remuneration. In other words, you just get back the cash, and the film is in vain. If you don't take the opportunity to make a big profit, how can you recover the losses?"

Hearing this, Rong Guang's heart immediately rose with an unknown fire.

MMP! The previous MTO was like this, and Harvey is still like this now. Do you really think that you are Tang Monk meat that anyone can take a bite of?

Rong Guang immediately ordered: "Pinkes, find me a lawyer and accountant. From the release of the film, supervise and audit the accounts throughout the entire process!"

Pincus was immediately shocked: "Rong, don't be impulsive! In Hollywood, small lawyers and small accountants are of no use at all. You can only hire first-class law firms and several major accounting firms. They charge by the hour

It’s chargeable. A full service like yours would cost at least one to two million dollars?”

However, Rong Guang doesn't care at all, he just doesn't steam the steamed buns to get his reputation!

Besides, Rong Guang knows that the global box office of the original "Parasite" exceeded US$250 million! Even if it is conservative, considering that it was more than ten years in advance, US$150 million should be there, right? So he is not afraid of spending an extra one or two million US dollars.

!

"I've decided, that's it. Let's find the accountant... Deloitte! The law firm also needs to be top-notch in Hollywood. I'm not afraid of spending money. What I hate most is that others treat me as an idiot!"

"Okay, okay!" Pincus shrugged. Anyway, as long as the client likes it! "What about the endorsement ads? This matter must not be delayed, otherwise you will soon become obsolete."

Rong Guang understood what Pincus meant. After all, before his rebirth, he was a veteran in the entertainment industry, and he had also read the autobiography of a certain European and American rock star. In that autobiography, he described in detail his past life.

the whole process.

In fact, the passing of an artist is not a downward curve.

Artists are still making announcements every day, and they are still surrounded by flowers and applause. When it comes to concerts, there are still huge crowds of fans. There are still reports in the media.

However, behind the scenes, this has passed away quietly. This situation may even last for one or two years, and suddenly one day, without any warning, everything will suddenly leave you, as if everyone has agreed upon it.

Go away!

Therefore, many artists simply cannot bear such a blow. Especially when they have been maintaining a luxurious life, but suddenly lose their financial resources? Obviously, bankruptcy, alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. are not far away.

Very few artists can maintain their original aspirations and continue to persevere until they regain their second youth.

Although the situations are different, the truth is the same. That's what Pincus and CAA mean - take advantage of the popularity of "Parasite" and take advantage of it. Don't wait until it's over, then it's already too late.

!

Rong Guang has no psychological burden in trying to get dollars from the American people. After all, the working people of the world are one family!

"Okay! Pincus. I will go to Los Angeles in the second half of the year. I will give you a month then, and you CAA will make arrangements!"

Anyway, I need to go to Industrial Light and Magic and the special effects production of "Er Lang Shen".

Also, taking this opportunity, can you take Yuan Quan on a honeymoon trip? Since there is no grand wedding, you can always go to the United States for your honeymoon, right? Rong Guang still feels quite resentful in his heart!

"OK OK!" Pincus smiled, he had completed his task, "Rong, I personally suggest that you can actually consider a film contract. If you can agree, I guarantee that you can find no less than 5 million in Hollywood.

US dollars? Are you interested?"

"I don't have a schedule. And I told you that my development center is in China." Rong Guang still refused. However, he thought that there was no need to say it to death, "Pinkes, let's do this! You CAA and

I will sign a supplementary contract in my studio in China to represent my North American brokerage business. If we can arrange a release date in the future, we can discuss it again."

"No problem at all."

Such a curve brokerage agency can pay part of the tax. One is the personal brokerage business. The tax in the United States is very high, as high as more than 40%. But now it is the labor export relationship of overseas companies, and the tax is relatively low.
