World-class directors in the entertainment industry

"Martin, let's talk slowly."

After Qin Dong pondered for a while, he waved his hand casually:

"My schedule has been very tight in the past year or two, so I'm not in a hurry."

"You have enough time to talk to Blizzard slowly."

Regarding the once famous game [World of Warcraft], it would be a lie for Qin Dong to say that he is not interested.

In his previous life, Qin Dong had to recharge his card to play this game.

But it is impossible to say how much you desire.

After all, this game is indeed as Martin said, the world view is very comprehensive and grand.

This makes it very difficult to adapt it into a live-action movie.

The world view is comprehensive and grand, which means there are too many important characters and too many important plots. It is difficult to choose how to adapt this into a movie.

There are too many characters appearing in the movie, and it is easy for moviegoers to forget so many characters.

"Yeah, I thought so too."

Martin smiled and nodded, looking very happy.

This was the answer he wanted to hear.

This is a good thing for CAA. Martin doesn't want Qin Dong to refuse, so a slow-talking answer is enough.

Whether or not they can come to an agreement is another matter.

"Chairman, we have arrived at Daqin Manor."

The co-pilot Zheng Dajun spoke at this time.

"Martin, do you want to go in and do it?"

Qin Dong looked out the car window and saw that he had indeed arrived in Beverly. He turned to look at Martin and said politely.

"No, Qin, you can get over your jet lag and I won't bother you."

Martin had the good sense to refuse.

"OK, see you next time, Martin."

"See you next time, Qin."

Seeing Qin Dong getting out of the car with Lin Yuner, Martin hesitated for a moment, then followed him and shouted:

"Qin"

"Um?"

Qin Dong turned around and looked at Martin in confusion.

"Three phone calls?"

Martin walked towards Qin Dong and asked in a low voice.

""

Qin Dong looked steadily into Martin's eyes, stared straight at them for a while and then replied in a low voice:

"Martin, you shouldn't ask."

"You don't know anything."

"Go back and take good care of CAA."

"I need CAA to continue to support me and help me handle things in Hollywood."

Martin smiled apologetically when he heard this:

"Yeah, I do talk a bit too much."

"Qin, see you next time."

Qin Dong watched Martin get into the car, shook his head speechlessly and turned towards the manor.

One of the greatest desires of human beings is curiosity.

It is said that curiosity killed the cat.

Martin initially said that he was afraid of his career and his family being harmed, so he didn't dare to come forward, but he still couldn't hide his curiosity.

after one day.

Warner Headquarters.

meeting room.

"Hello, Director Qin, I am actor Chris Pine, and I am honored to star in Director Qin's film."

A handsome Caucasian man introduced himself and showed a flattering smile.

"Hello director, I'm Connie Nielsen"

"Hello director, I'm Robin White"

"Hello director, I'm David Thewlis"

""

"Hello"

Qin Dong looked at the actors with flattering smiles, smiled and waved:

"I hope we all have a happy cooperation in the next two to three months."

Facing the actors of a new movie that was about to start filming, Qin Dong would not give in to them.

His position is to intimidate.

There is no need to show off one's power. Showing off one's power usually occurs when someone looks down on you, or when both parties are evenly matched.

"Qin, are you still satisfied? If not, you can replace them at any time."

Barry Meyer, the president of Warner, waited until Qin Dong finished greeting the actors, then came over and whispered with a smile.

Only the smile could not hide the indifference in the words.

"NO, so far, it's not bad."

Qin shook his head and rejected this cold-blooded proposal.

Some of these people were selected by Qin Dong, and some were selected by Martin's CAA and Warner.

At least for now, the appearance is very suitable for the requirements of the movie role. As for the acting skills

Qin Dong looked at the actors on the scene. Many of the main supporting roles were older actors. The acting skills of actors of this age would not be a mess no matter how good they were.

Hollywood movies are popular all over the world, making competition in this circle extremely fierce.

Perhaps the acting skills at the top of the pyramid are not much different from the entertainment circles in other countries around the world.

But when it comes to comparing the lower limit, Hollywood takes advantage.

Just like Hollywood movies, most of them are assembly line products. This kind of movie may not be outstanding and the upper limit is not high, but the lower limit is very high.

This is also true for the acting skills of actors in the highly competitive Hollywood circle. Compared with those from other countries, the number of particularly outstanding actors and actresses is about the same.

But compared to ordinary actors with good acting skills, Hollywood has a lot of them, and they are definitely far beyond the entertainment industry actors in other countries.

In this highly competitive world, it is difficult to get ahead without some acting skills.

"As long as you're satisfied, Qin."

Barry nodded and said apologetically:

"To be honest, Qin, I'm sorry that the board of directors gave you so little time."

"It's just that I am the president of Warner, but I am not a shareholder of the board of directors. I cannot make many decisions in one word."

"I can only try my best to meet your requirements in other aspects, Qin."

Barry still values ​​his personal relationship with Qin Dong very much.

This is a talented director, screenwriter, rich man, and a Chinese.

At Barry's age, he really couldn't last more than a few years before he would have to retire, so Barry valued his personal relationship with Qin Dong very much.

When he retires and is no longer the president of Warner, one of the six largest companies in Hollywood, his network of contacts will shrink rapidly. At that time, when his family and descendants need help, who will they turn to?

Everyone living in this world has his or her own little thoughts and calculations.

"Barry, this is none of your business."

Qin Dong understood what Barry meant, but shook his head disapprovingly:

"Everyone takes what he needs."

"I'm still young and I've been busy for several years, but I still managed to live there."

"Besides, not only did I acquire many superhero copyrights from DC, every movie I shot was released."

"If it hadn't been a box office hit, I would have made $100 million per movie with a smile on my face."

"Yeah yeah yeah"

Barry nodded repeatedly. Anyway, the attitude of the person involved was what he wanted to see.

The blame for this matter lies with the board of directors of Warner and the board of directors of DC, not him, the president of Warner, so that’s fine.

"Barry, how are the discussions between Warner Bros. and Christian Bale going?"

Qin Dong changed his words and asked about something.

"Qin, does it have to be Christian Bale? Can't you choose another actor?"

Upon hearing this, Barry did not answer directly, but asked a few questions.

"NO, it's not necessary. You can choose other actors, but Christian Bale is the best."

"Of course, if Christian Bale charges a high price and doesn't know where his position is, then this person can give up."

Qin Dong glanced at Barry and knew what he was doing, so he didn't force him, but instead spoke with a smile on his face.

"Wow, three grams of oil, Qin."

Barry breathed a sigh of relief and said with relief:

"Currently Christian Bale's agent is asking for 20 million yuan in salary, and the company management and I are unanimously unwilling."

"It's just that since we don't know Qin's attitude yet, Warner is still in the process of negotiating with Christian Bale's agent."

"But Qin, you are also in this circle. You should understand that when a big company stalks you, it will give the other party an illusion."

When Barry said this, he shrugged with a helpless smile on his face:

"Give the other party the illusion that we, Warner, must need the other party to star in it, as if without the other party, our Warner movie cannot be filmed."

"They had this misconception, which made them very emboldened. They kept trying to pull back from us, Warner, and they spoke very strongly and persistently."

Qin Dong understood that this was not Christian Bale's fault, nor his agent's fault, but the whole of Hollywood.

Just look at Robert Downey Jr.'s salary starting from "Iron Man", which is as high as US$50 million, and you will know how aggressive the agency CAA is.

"Then make Christian Bale realize that he doesn't matter."

"Package his contract and sign multiple film deals, otherwise we will suppress him."

"Don't worry about me, the absence of Christian Bale does not affect my plans."

Qin Dong whispered cold-blooded words and told Barry this.

Qin Dong didn't know Christian Bale and had no contact with him.

However, the other party's professionalism is world-famous, the famous [Spring Man].

For the role, you can lose dozens of pounds in a few months, or you can gain a few pounds in a few months.

He is simply a model of a professional actor. During his career as an actor, he has gained weight and lost weight many times for roles.

This kind of rapid physical change is definitely not good for the whole person. In the future, when you get older, you will definitely be plagued by injuries.

However, Qin Dong doesn't know Christian Bale and doesn't care about him. It's just because of Anne Hathaway that Qin Dong needs this actor to appear in his movie.

Although it is not necessary, because in [Batman Dark Trilogy], Christian Bale plays Batman and Anne Hathaway plays Catwoman, it is best for the two to be synchronized.

This is better for neatness, otherwise Catwoman would be played by a previous actor and Batman would be played by a new actor, which would easily cause dissatisfaction among DC fans.

"OK, with Qin, I know how to arrange it."

Barry felt completely relieved after hearing this.
