Heads Up Hollywood

Bill McNick is pissed off!

Last year, the movie "Die Hard 3" he promoted was the box office champion. This year, the movie "Defense of the Earth" he promoted is also the box office champion. Who can guarantee that "Titanic" will not surprise the world in 1997? ?

Bill McNick is obsessed with power, he doesn't like the feeling of being checked and balanced by his subordinates!

James Cameron can't be changed!

"I still insist..." Bill McNick was halfway through speaking, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind. For some reason, his belief was inexplicably shaken.

"Bill, you still insist on using James?" Tom Rothman asked slightly sarcastically.

Bill McNick took a deep breath and shook his head, "No, I mean...we must insist on our full support for the "Titanic" project."

A bit of disbelief flashed across Tom Rothman's face, "Bill, what do you mean...you agreed to change the director?"

Bill McNick sighed, "James is too disappointing. Fortunately, the movie has just been filmed, and there is still time to remedy it."

Everyone present looked weird.

When did this guy talk so easily?

Now the entire United States regards "Titanic" as a joke, but the huge investment has forced Fox Films to move forward.

Bet one percent on James Cameron's success.

Unexpectedly, Bill McNick actually flinched.

"Okay, since everyone agrees to change people, let's discuss who will take over the "Titanic"?" Tom Rothman snatched the initiative of the meeting as a winner.

"I think Spielberg..."

"No, Steve is filming the sequel to Jurassic Park, there is no time." Jim Ganopoulos shook his head, "I think Roland Emmerich is more suitable, and the box office of "Defending the Earth" released this year has reached With $800 million, he has the ability to make "Titanic" well."

"Michael Bay is also good, and "The Island" is well received."

"Jane de Bont is more suitable. "Tornado" has a good box office, and it is also a disaster movie, which fits the theme of "Titanic."

"enough!"

Bill McNick's face was gloomy, and he gave a low drink. He hated this kind of uncontrolled meeting scene.

He is the CEO of Fox Films, and he is the leader!

"Grant, you said James fired a studio assistant today?"

For some reason, Bill McNick's mind was in turmoil, as if everything was out of control. He hates this feeling, he wants to prove the authority of the CEO again!

"Yes, his name is Don Walker. It is said that he had a little conflict with Kate." Grant Hill is a very dedicated producer and has a deep enough understanding of the set.

"Twain Walker..." Bill McNick groaned for a moment, and suddenly had a whimsical idea. For some reason, he came up with a bold idea that shook the world, "I think Twain Walker is competent for "Titanic" The only candidate for the director!"

"What?"

Everyone was shocked.

Silence all!

Grant Hill has his own plan. As long as James loses the support of Bill McNick, he will be able to control the "Titanic" set.

Jim Ganopoulos did not speak.

Two years ago, he strongly advocated the purchase of film copyrights of superheroes such as X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool from Marvel. He is currently raising funds and building projects, intending to bring the X-Men to the big screen.

Once the project is successful, and the franchise continues, that's a huge credit, enough to make him go one step further, especially with Jim Ganopoulos making a mistake...

Tom Rothman has been waiting for Jim Ganopoulos' stupid move. He has long had enough of Bill McNick's dictatorship and domineering, and now he has finally waited for the other party to make a mistake. How can he help to correct it?

As for chief operating officer Jack Howard, he was cautious and didn't want to touch the mold of Bill McNick.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Bill McNick made a final decision, "Since everyone has no objection, it's settled. Send someone to notify James immediately! Also, let Twain come over to sign the contract early tomorrow morning!"

...

Dizzy, Tang En came to Fox Films again.

This time, instead of going to the studio, I came to the CEO's office in the headquarters building.

Hearing that he was signing a contract, Tang En immediately thought of the miraculous scene that appeared after he put on the sunglasses yesterday.

"Is this all true? That pair of sunglasses... really has a system that can cheat in Hollywood?" Tang En felt that his outlook on life had collapsed, it was unbelievable.

It wasn't until he came to the CEO's office and saw Bill McNick with a modest smile, Grant Hill with a strong face and James Cameron with a black face, that Tang En finally realized that everything was extremely real!

"You are Tang En?"

As soon as Tang En showed up, Cameron questioned aggressively.

Tang En smiled slightly, "Hello, James."

Cameron was furious and shouted angrily: "Bill, what are you doing? You let this brat replace my job? Do you know that this will ruin "Titanic"!"

Bill McNick frowned slightly, and said displeasedly: "Jamie, calm down! Don't you know what you did as the director of "Titanic"?"

Cameron is well aware of the current situation of Fox Films, so he is grateful to Bill McNick and is ready to leave at any time, but what he can't bear is to let an eighteen-year-old with no directing experience replace him. Location!

"Bill, I know you have endured a lot of pressure for me. I am very grateful and agree to resign from the director's job. But...but we can't ruin this movie!"

Cameron worked hard for this movie. He started writing the script in 1991 and started project preparations in 1994. It took two full years of preparation before the filming officially started.

He loves this project more than anyone, and he doesn't want his years of hard work to go to waste.

Bill McNick made a few more downward gestures and sighed, "Calm down, Jamie, calm down. Little Dunn is indeed a little younger, but I believe he can handle this job."

Tang En saw the need and said loudly: "Of course! "Titanic" is a great project, and I will definitely do my best to write a great legend for this great project!"

Grant Hill praised: "Little Tang En, well said!"

Bill McNick also smiled and said, "Boy, you have a talent for speech."

Cameron sneered, "Even if he is eloquent, it can't hide his mediocrity and incompetence in directing talent!"

Tang En has always respected Cameron, but he couldn't stand his continuous provocations. He endured his anger and said, "Mr. Cameron, you said that I am mediocre and incompetent, so tell me, if you continue to direct, can you Is the project guaranteed to be successful?"

Movies are a high-yield, high-risk industry. Who can guarantee that they will not lose money?

"You can't guarantee it, but I can!" Tang En patted his chest and vowed.

Cameron sneered: "You promise? What guarantee do you have? How much did you invest in directing this project? To recover the cost, the global box office needs at least 500 million U.S. dollars!"

Now Cameron can only be regarded as a quasi-first-line director, and the box office of "True Lies" is more than 300 million. For him, 500 million US dollars is still an astronomical figure.

"500 million U.S. dollars? Haha!" Tang En laughed disdainfully, and said coldly, "What is a mere 500 million U.S. dollars?"

"Boy, arrogant!" Cameron shouted angrily.

Bill McNick glanced at him displeasedly, and said earnestly: "Boy, it's good to have confidence, but don't talk big, it's very bad for you."

Tang En doesn't care, brother is a reborn person, doesn't he even have the capital to brag and pretend to be big?

"Mr. McNick, you misunderstood. The box office of 500 million dollars... In my opinion, it is just a conservative estimate of the box office in North America!" Tang En raised his chest and became the focus of the office in an instant.

"$500 million North American box office? What are you talking about?" Cameron laughed angrily, "Who do you think you are? Spielberg? Even Spielberg can't reach this figure!"

"Steve?" Tang En shook his head calmly, "So, Mr. Cameron, your structure is too small! Is Mr. Spielberg a god? Can't you surpass him?"

"Bill, do you really think this ignorant brat can make "Titanic" well?" Cameron asked angrily.

Bill McNick frowned, squinted his eyes, and stared at Tang En carefully. After a long silence, he asked in a deep voice: "You said that the North American box office can reach 500 million US dollars, so in your opinion, how much is the global box office?" How far can it go?"

"1.5 billion is the guarantee, and 2 billion is the goal!"

Tang En's words resounded like thunder!

"Good!" Bill McNick praised, "I haven't seen a young man as ambitious as you for many years. I remember the last time I saw... Steve Spielberg before filming ET."

Cameron felt an ominous premonition, and his face sank like water.

"Grant, prepare the contract without further ado, we will sign a contract with Mr. Dunn Walker!"

"Bill..."

"Enough!" Bill McNick waved his hand, "Jamie, this is my decision!"

The top leader's decision cannot be doubted!

Tang En secretly wiped off his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief, with a satisfied smile on his face.

It worked!

It turned out to be a success!

Magic sunglasses, cheat Hollywood!

This is awesome!

...

Under California's Talent Act, actors must have an agent present when they sign. The director is not listed here because he will also be the producer in many cases.

Tang En stole James Cameron's director's contract, and the contract salary was naturally based on Cameron's standard.

A basic salary of 5 million US dollars, plus 10% of the global box office share!

"Hello, Titanic."

"Hollywood, here I come!"

Tang En wrote his name crookedly on the contract, shouting in his heart, in high spirits.
