Chapter 779 779

"I want to see that scene." Hugo sat in front of the dining table, eating the bacon on his plate, marveling, "The flying paper, the dumbfounded expression, the tense atmosphere... Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk

Rick really had a domineering aura and spilled out the information in the entire official box. This trick was even more direct than slapping Ma Wen on the face. I guess the atmosphere inside the entire International Innovation Management Company today is very strange.

"Rick said that those are all waste scripts, and he had already faxed the real information." Joseph explained, and he walked over with a coffee pot and filled Hugo's cup.

Hugo was not surprised at all. He reminded Rick that if Rick still didn't know how to adapt, he would be completely foolish. Therefore, even if Rick didn't transfer all the information, he wouldn't be able to leave with the information stupidly. This was expected.

"Haha, those who were deceived by Rick are probably all very distressed." Carl was also very gloating. He was not a joker, but as long as he remembered the atmosphere on the 23rd floor at that time, he couldn't help but want to applaud. "Even the movie is not that spectacular!" Carl couldn't help sighing again, "Those thousands of papers floated out loud, and when the wind blew, the twenty-third floor saw it, it felt like the whole world was floating, tsk tsk..."

"Is this a serious matter? Today, the Los Angeles Times reported it." Alex was quite ignorant about these things. Although he knew what was going on, he had never felt the seriousness. In fact, this is because actors like Alex and Charlize and others have not yet reached the qualification to enter this game, so they don't feel that strongly.

Hugo raised his eyebrows, "Are they so leisurely?"

Samora sat aside and just opened the newspaper. Hugo came over and Charlize, who was sitting opposite him, came over, and everyone was intrigued.

Sure enough, I saw a press release, which was actually a picture-profile news. This is really rare, but the picture-profile is not a spectacular scene with paper flying all over the sky, but the door to the international innovation management company. The news simply introduced the internal contradictions of the international innovation management company, and then mentioned that Rick Rosen was swept out, believing that there will be a lot of turmoil in the broker industry in the next period of time.

At a glance, you can tell that the reporter did not find too many inside information. Hugo glanced and said that the signature was not Nicholas McCellan, and he immediately showed a clear expression: No wonder this guy has not called himself until now.

"Hollywood is just a little big, and our company is also a top player. This kind of big thing must be paid attention to, which is normal." Joseph was not surprised by the media reports at all, "But they are not very interested in the inside story. Have you not seen it? Apart from Rick, there is no other thing to mention."

"It's better not to mention it, otherwise it would cause a lot of controversy, and Marvin would be wary." Carl said, "Or else Marvin knew who was going to leave among the senior agents, and this matter would be even bigger." Speaking of this, Carl couldn't help looking at Joseph, "Rick really said that there are three people in the senior agents who are willing to leave with him?"

Currently, there are only eighteen senior agents in the international innovation management company. Each of them has a good hand. Even if they are not top stars, they are only a handful of superstars in Hollywood. However, the first-line artists or stars of tomorrow in their hands should not be underestimated. They are a very important force.

If four senior partners, including Rick himself, can leave their own business, then the chances of success of the new company will inevitably be improved by several levels.

Joseph nodded, "That's what Rick told me, but let's wait and see, who knows how to develop in the future." After that, Joseph glanced at Hugo, couldn't help but smile, and then looked away.

Since Hugo is going to invest in a new company, the relationship between Rick and Hugo is very delicate. Rick and Hugo have a special phone call, and Joseph does not know the content of the call. He guessed that Rick should show some of the trump cards to Hugo. However, Joseph did not want to know, and he did not want others to know.

This is not a question of trust or not, but a lot of people and sometimes it is normal to say something unintentionally. Therefore, before the dust settles, the fewer people know, the safer it is. Therefore, Joseph himself did not ask Hugo, nor did he tell others about Hugo's preparation for investment in Rick, as if in this incident, they only played an ordinary role as a small side.

In fact, Rick did give Hugo a trump card to know, not because he trusted Hugo, but because the wisdom Hugo showed twice yesterday afternoon made Rick’s eyes lit up. He also had the intention of temptation, so he gave Hugo a trump card to know, and wanted to see what Hugo would react.

During this midnight political change, there were three senior partners who were planning to leave the company with Rick, namely Ali Emmanuel, David Greenblatt and Tom Strykerle. Like Rick, these three people are already full-fledged senior agents. Ali and Rick are on the same level as each other, and David and Tom have gradually become the backbone, and their strength cannot be underestimated.

In addition, three other senior partners of other small brokerage firms also expressed their willingness to invest in the new company. In addition to a group of capable brokers, the new company could have twenty-seven brokers when it was initially established, including Carl Earl and Henry Bloom; nine of them were senior partners, that is, the first batch of investors, which already included Hugo.

Generally speaking, Hollywood has seventy brokerage companies, so there are only four large brokerage companies. In addition to the three major ones, there are also United Elite companies established in 1991. However, United Elite companies are still in the development stage and are still far from the three major levels, so people have not included them in the category of real large brokerage companies.

Judging from Rick's plan, the new company started as a medium-sized brokerage company, but there is still a long way to develop slowly in the future.

If nothing unexpected happens, this is the prototype of the Enjin Elite Company. Although Hugo knows that Enjin Elite Company will be one of the five major brokerage companies in Hollywood in the future, it seems to be full of difficulties, with countless internal and external troubles. The internal personnel arrangements of the company, the arrangements of office buildings, etc. are all top priority; and the suppression from international innovation management companies, coupled with the squeeze of other medium-sized brokerage companies, this is worrying.

Sure enough, starting a business has never been an easy task.

Hugo didn't notice Joseph's eyes, but he also knew that he could not say these things. Anyway, after the things were successful, everyone would know. Now they couldn't help, so Hugo changed the subject, "By the way, did Rick mention Lang's whereabouts?"

Hugo only remembered after hanging up Rick's phone call. Why did Long Mayer disappear in this incident? He could hardly see him, as if he had disappeared at all.

Joseph nodded, but his eyes were a little cautious, "Long left the company and he took over the COO of Universal Pictures."

Lang and Hugo's relationship has always been bad. Later, because Hugo's career improved, Lang seemed to avoid the limelight, and his head-on confrontation with Hugo seemed to disappear overnight. But now it seems that Lang did not disappear, but had a new goal and planned. If Lang became the chief operating officer of Universal Pictures, everything could be explained.

As soon as Joseph's words came out, everyone became quiet, and seemed to realize the importance of the position of "Chief Operating Officer". If you think further, Tracy's relationship with Universal Pictures has always been very good at the beginning. Will Tracy have any credit for being able to join Universal Pictures?

Of course, these are just speculations and cannot be verified at all.

Seeing everyone's heavy weight, Hugo chuckled, "Actually, this is a good thing. The relationship between agents and artists, and the relationship between production companies and artists, are two completely different connections."

Agents can be said to live by relying on artists, and only when the artists' work goes well can they be nourished; but production companies and artists are mutually restrictive relationships, and artists are one of the tools to make money for them, only one of the links. This difference in connection will inevitably lead to a change in Lang and Hugo's way of getting along.

Hugo knew that they were actually worried that after Lang became the chief operating officer of Universal Pictures, Hugo would definitely not be the first choice among the actors in the future. Although it would not be banned, the difficulties increased, which is expected. In other words, Lang now has the upper hand because he can control the power of life and death in whether Hugo will appear in the work.

But Hugo's perspectives were different, so he didn't worry too much. Joseph also said, "Long needs to consider the interests of Universal Pictures, and he has more constraints. He definitely can't do whatever he wants as he did before. Under greater pressure, his relationship with Hugo will also change."

Joseph's view of the problem is obviously much clearer now, and his overall view is more obvious, so he just paused for a moment and realized the profound meaning from Hugo's words.
