Reborn American Tyrant

Kashen is very curious, how would White Pictures know about him, if he just talked casually, he would not care too much, this kind of thing is normal in Hollywood.

The economic environment is not good, the life of the producers is very hard, and now there are fewer and fewer fools, and the infamous screenwriters and directors are simply not welcome.

It’s very funny indeed. Today’s resources are extremely expensive. Since William White began to acquire various adaptation rights, this trend has intensified.

Hollywood is full of scripts, and many taxi drivers pick up passengers near the screenwriter’s guild. If you look more like the boss of a movie company, they don’t mind selling your own stories by the way.

At the same time, Hollywood giants are scrambling for scripts, and some of the more popular novels are almost wiped out by them.

Nowadays, Kashen is basically similar to those taxi drivers. It is better and very limited. At this time, someone told him that our boss wants to see you and bring your script.

Doubts, excitement, and troubles.

In short, when he came to William White's office, Kashen couldn't judge his mood.

"Sit down, how about the coffee? It seems that you haven't slept well."

Kashen had only a wry smile, hell if he could sleep well, it seemed that he couldn't remember how many times he was rejected.

"Coffee is good, no sugar, this is my script."

"Okay, I may need some time."

"You are free, I'm not in a hurry."

William White looked at the script, he read it very seriously, but also very slowly.

At this time, Kashen seemed to have a lot of energy after drinking a cup of coffee. So far, William White is the most serious person.As for the other guys, it's just three or five minutes, and then one sentence is not bad.

"Hey, this story is very interesting, and the idea is also very special. Are your conditions very demanding? This script seems to be pretty good, it is impossible that no one will buy it."

Kashen was a little embarrassed. Of course he knew why people said that. That's how the truck driver's nickname came.

Those who ridiculed him for being indifferent, although they were interested in this script, all died down when they heard his conditions.

"Mr. White, I want to make this movie myself."

"Ha, it's no wonder, what movie have you made before?"

"Piranha."

"Tsk, this movie is not so good. Why do you think you can do it this time?"

"Because I am Cameron, this story has been lingering in my mind, so I will be successful."

"Hey, how much do you need to shoot for?"

"Ten million, I can do it with ten million."

"Have you seen the speed of life and death? How much do you think it needs?"

"At least thirty million."

"Haha, this script of yours needs to be perfected. If you add some more popular scenes, believe me, it won't be filmed without 15 million. You can't use any big-name actors in it, otherwise 20 million won't be able to stop it."

William White knew that Kashen didn't make much money on this movie. The initial budget was only 6 million, and then it actually spent 9 million. In the end, the movie was almost a stalemate.

"James, you are like this. I invested 15 million to make this movie. The follow-up copyright of this script belongs to me. You are responsible for improving the script and shooting. I will give you 8% of the box office share. Well, it's only North America. Of course, I can also If you buy out subsequent copyrights, your fee is $800,000. Think about it."

"No, this movie belongs to you."

"Well, if the box office in North America exceeds 100 million, the box office share will increase by 1%."

William White's conditions are not harsh, on the contrary, the conditions are very generous.

"Let's go to dinner together, I still have some ideas, I want to hear your opinion."

"it is good."

Kashen does not have the status of a posterity, but William White is different. He has already proven his strength. Except for a few directors, no one does not respect his opinions.

The most important point is that Kashen's script is really messy. He can shoot this thing himself. If it is handed over to other directors, I really don't know what it will look like.

William White is different. He comes from an academic class, and his scripts can be used as teaching materials.

Of course, this kind of script Kashen may not like it, even Spielberg doesn't like it too much. It's easy to shoot, of course, it's easy to shoot. It's just that this kind of script can't make its own style at all.

"Boss, are you sure? These can be done through special effects?"

"Of course, when I take you to Industrial Light & Magic, I just don't have too many shots, just two or three lenses. Lucas is too black-hearted."

"Hehe, there are rumors from the outside world that he will give you more than three million special effects that can only be achieved by five million."

"Well, this is true, but there is one thing. He has invested all this money. According to the current situation, he earns more than 5 million. This is an old fox."

Ka Shenxin said that if he is an old fox, you are a little fox. This is the consensus of Hollywood.

Although he slandered his own boss, he also had to admit that William White did have unique insights into the understanding of the movie.

"Kashen, since you were arrested by me, there is nothing polite, so try to help me make money." Thinking of the wonderful place, William White's saliva flowed out.

Since he could not intercept the ET aliens, he naturally had to start the Titanic in advance. Before this ship was born, the title of the box office champion, but he was always occupied.

Although William White doesn't care about the name or something, there is still a little entanglement.There is no other reason. According to the current box office situation, the box office champion may be the speed of life and death.

William White needs to keep a low profile. He is now saying that the championship is okay. When the ET aliens are painted, someone will immediately jump out and make a face.

"Boss, are you sure?"

"It will definitely be a record, and it will be the champion for a long time."

"ok, I get it."

Barry Diller called, mainly to report on the progress of the American idol.

Of course, he also wanted to ask, why not tout the speed of life and death.

William White didn't say not to be flattered, he only said to downplay the box office championship. As for other things, it doesn't matter.

The communication with Lucas was fairly pleasant, but he had no interest in truck drivers. In the case of low investment, it was impossible to get in.

He was very curious indeed that Cameron’s reputation was not very good, that the so-called Piranha, belonged to a movie that went to death.

The funniest thing is not that the movie is on the street. Cameron's performance on the set is not good. In fact, it is implicit to say that he is not good. His set has completely lost control.If it weren't for someone to save the scene, the movie would never finish.

Talent?

This one really does.

The guy who graduated from the film school can only get some commercials and MTV test hands. How can Cameron be the director of Piranha 2 is not level.

William White knows that the biggest problem with this product is cost control. He needs to arrange for him a reliable project manager, otherwise the movie may also be troublesome. If it can't be done at 30 million, it will probably die. It's ugly.
