章 8: chapter 008
"What, I can get a 5% share of the box office?" Martin was shocked, "Aunt Nancy, you're not kidding me, are you?" Is this a treatment that a newcomer can have? "
Nancy was amused by Martin's appearance, and after leaning back and laughing for a while, she said
"Thanks to your dad's investment and your Aunt Nancy's eloquence."
"Of course, Mr. Eisner is very optimistic about you."
"But this condition is only a special case, if you want to enter this industry, you have to know that you are only a newcomer to the film industry, don't be too ambitious."
"I understand." Martin nodded, and then couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure it's box office sharing or profit sharing?" "
In Hollywood, the difference between profit sharing and box office sharing is very big, there are too many cats in profit sharing, "Harry Potter" can give you a whole loss, dare you believe it?!
And the box office share is relatively safer.
"Don't worry, with me, your father is not one of those outside investors who don't understand anything, he has invested in "Jurassic Park"."
"Then I'm relieved."
Martin smiled happily, and he silently calculated in his heart.
The box office of "Born a Couple" in the original timeline was 92 million US dollars (investment of 15 million).
If you get five percent, you can get 4.6 million US dollars, which is a lot of money in the 90s.
Moreover, he believes that the box office of "Born a Couple" starring him will definitely be higher, which is from the confidence of the succubus.
...
The time crept into November.
"Kung Fu Panda" is on the market.
Random House is not in a hurry to throw Martin's identity away, they are ready to do a linkage marketing with Disney, the film will be released in the summer of July next year, and large-scale marketing will begin in June next year.
When the time comes, the two will hype Martin's identity as a "genius boy" at the same time!
...
In school.
Lindsay Rohan and Mark Zackerberg are saying goodbye to Martin, who is about to enter the group to film, and John, a tall school bully, is standing behind Martin, with a serious face, like a bodyguard.
Lindsay Lohan: "Martin, I really envy you, I'm going to be a movie star, and I want to make movies too." "
Mark Zackerberg: "Martin, you're really going to make a movie, it's great, my good friend is going to become a star, by the way, sign me first." "
Lindsay Lohan: "And me, and me." "
At the same time, the two took out a brand new copy of "Kung Fu Panda" from their bags.
John glanced at the three people who were interacting and thought disdainfully: "Hmph, what a childish, three little brats." "
Then he faintly rejoiced: "Martin is leaving, won't I be the boss again?" "
"John, John, what are you thinking?"
"Ah, oh, in!"
John was an agitated spirit, quickly straightened his chest and stood up straight, already forming a conditioned reflex.
"John, during my absence, you are not allowed to bully your classmates, do you know?"
"Well, don't bully classmates."
"If someone else bullies a classmate, you must also stand up and stop it."
"Well, stop."
"You have to remember that you are not the kind of villain who bullies the weak, but to be a hero."
"Well, hero."
I don't know why, as soon as he heard what Martin said, looking at his blue eyes, John involuntarily rose a will to obey in his heart, and the careful thinking just now had long disappeared.
Martin looked at John, who was unusually obedient, and nodded in satisfaction.
For a succubus, "convincing" a person is really simple.
...
JPMorgan Chase Bank, Investment Office.
Grant and Nancy, brothers and sisters, stood and sat down.
"Nancy, when will the movie start? I wish you could shoot faster, and I don't want Martin to miss too much school. Grant asked, standing there, shaking the wine glass in his hand.
"I will hire a tutor for him in the crew, and his homework will not be delayed too much. Grant, I honestly didn't expect you to agree to let Martin act, it's the most chaotic Vanity Fair in the world? "
Grant smiled and put down his glass, and said to Nancy: "Martin's personality is very similar to you, Dad was extremely opposed to you entering this circle, but you are not stubborn and rushed in?" Haha, think about how angry Dad was at the beginning, what did he say? "
"We're a 'financial family.'" Grant and Nancy shouted in unison, and then laughed together.
"If I hadn't said good things for you in the past few years, I'm afraid that the two of you father and daughter would still be fighting a cold war now!"
"Hmph, who is rare, it's that old man who is too rigid."
Nancy pouted, thinking of the old man's rude, unreasonable and arbitrary behavior, she would still be angry now!
Grant shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "So I don't want to be a rigid, rough father, since little Martin likes to be a star, let him break in, and he is a boy, he is always safer than a girl." "
"There are quite a few men and women in this circle." Nancy reminds.
"Hmph, with me behind his back, I don't believe that anyone who dares to provoke him without opening his eyes."
As the head of investment banking at JPMorgan Chase Bank, Grant's connections are terrifying, and he controls the pocketbooks of countless rich people.
"Okay, okay, Martin is not only your son, but also my nephew, I will be optimistic about him and will not let those rotten people approach him."
"Very well, Nancy, Martin will leave it to you. Now let's talk about investing, how much do you need? "
"At least 7.5 million, I estimate the budget of this movie to be about 15 million, Disney is only willing to invest half, and the distribution of the film must be handed over to them."
"These greedy hyenas!"
"Hey, Grant, you promised that you wouldn't regret it, would you?" Nancy raised her eyebrows and made a gesture of arguing.
"Of course not, for my dear sister, and for my dear son, 7.5 million, I can get it myself."
Grant spread his hands and said, "Nancy, look at this money for me, although it is not much, but I don't like to be deceived." I don't want to be the laughing stock of those stupid people who throw money into Hollywood. "
"Don't worry, I'm a producer, I'll be optimistic about this money."
"By the way, Random House only gave us eight months, which means that the film must be released next summer, otherwise they will act on their own, time is tight, when can Martin join the group?"
"All the preliminary preparations are done?"
"Of course!"
"Tomorrow, Martin has gone to school today to take a leave of absence and say goodbye to his friends by the way."
"Very well, just tomorrow."
