Hearing his mother’s reprimand, Stuart made a face at Elizabeth and lowered his head to play the Rubik’s Cube in his hand.

After calming down a bit, the girl realized that she was being teased by the little guy in front of her.

Moreover, she still can’t have any seizures, and she can’t lose her temper with an eight-year-old child.

Staring at the magazine in her hand for a while, sulking, Elizabeth suddenly turned her gaze to the closed door of the small conference room.

Blame the bastard!

The girl muttered silently, and she simply took anger on Eric.

Eric in the conference room didn’t know that he was shot innocently again inexplicably. At this time, he looked blankly at Brian Kurtzman and Charlson Rank who were sitting opposite. you.

“$10 million and 10% of the North American box office, Charlie, is that what you meant too?” After a moment of silence,

Eric just asked, it seems that caa didn’t learn his lesson at all, and the lion opened his mouth again.

In the previous negotiation between Cruise and Hanks, caa was only trying to get a high percentage of profit sharing. Although there is a difference between box office sharing and profit sharing, the difference in the final result is tens of millions of dollars.

Charlieson Runkel glanced at Eric with a guilty conscience, not knowing how to speak, Brian Kurtzman beside him quickly interfaced: “Mr. Williams, Runkel Mr. has given me the full responsibility for this negotiation. He is only an observer. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly.” “Oh, that’s fine.” Eric sneered , and asked: “If this negotiation fails, Mr. Kurtzman. Can you be responsible for this?” broker.

There was concern and vigilance in his expression.

Obviously, Charlieson Runkel also knows that this time the conditions are a bit unrealistic compared to the salary rules for Hollywood stars.

But he was also very conflicted in his heart. On the one hand, of course Lanker also wanted to get such a generous salary agreement, but at the same time, he also knew that if he insisted on the salary conditions.

There is a high probability that the final talk will collapse.

Seeing Lanker’s expression, Eric immediately made up his mind, as long as the other party did not completely hand over the control of the negotiation to this unfamiliar new agent.

Eric didn’t know why caa replaced the original Horner Willie, thinking that it might be because of the turmoil in the first half of the year.

But these are not what Eric cares about. He knows a lot about Runkel’s character. He is a mediocre and unassertive middle-aged man, but he likes to focus on things beyond his ability. hands, and habitually worry about gains and losses.

Therefore, Eric knew that the main breakthrough point of this negotiation was Runkel, as for Brian Kurtz, who looked much smarter and stronger than the original Horner Willie Man.

Isn’t there a saying, no matter how powerful a soldier is, he can’t stand the drag of his teammates.

Brian Kurtzman was also secretly scolding Langkel at this time.

He had discussed in detail with the middle-aged man before, saying that as long as he did not intervene, he would definitely be able to win a very generous salary agreement for Stuart. Of course, he could also get more commissions accordingly. , but unfortunately the couple refused to give him the power of negotiation completely.

At this time, Eric was just a temptation, and this incompetent middle-aged man exposed the details to the other party.

Brian Kurtzman knows that if you let him stay here.

Then their negotiations with Eric will be more passive.

“Mr. Runkel, if you trust me. Maybe you can go out and wait,” in order not to let Charlson Runkel disrupt his plans.

Brian Kurtzman said to Lanker with a smile.

Eric didn’t seem to hear what Brian said to Runkel, nor did he have any words or actions of dissuasion. Since he had already planted a tree of distrust in Runkel’s heart for him Seedling, it’s no wonder that Charlison Langkel is willing to go out at this time.

&

nbsp; Sure enough, after hearing Brian’s suggestion, Runkel twisted his fat body a few times on the chair, but did not get up, but said, “Brian, I’ll stay here. , you talk about you, I promise not to interrupt.” Brian Kurtzman clenched his hand on the desk subconsciously, but his face still maintained a smile, Ignoring Charlieson, he said to Eric: “Mr. Williams, we all know that you signed a distribution contract with Fox, which includes the distribution rights of “Home Alone 2″, I think, even if you want , Fox will not let this negotiation break down, will it?” But it was taken by Columbia in the end. So, the big deal is that I will make another film for Fox,” Eric said lightly, playing with the pen in his hand.

Brian Kurtzman hesitated for a moment when he heard Eric’s words, and then said: “Fox will definitely not easily agree with you to change the film, because you can’t compare it with “Little Ghost” “Master” is a well-known work.” Hearing Brian Kurtzman’s tone, Eric put a big stone in his heart again, it seems that caa did not know that he signed with Fox The specific content of the contract.

You must know that the original distribution contract for Fox’s three films was originally for the sequel to “Home Alone”, so while agreeing to Eric’s high sharing clause, it also specifically aimed at The film was signed under a series of harsh conditions, one of which was that Eric must continue to have Stewart.

Runkel as the lead actor in the sequel.

Since caa knew nothing about this, Eric became more reassured and bold: “Even if Fox does not agree to change the film, then I can change the male lead. I believe that countless families are willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars The low price of his family let his children play in the sequel to “Home Alone”, didn’t he?” Will deeply resonate with his words.

Although the salary bonus for the first part of “Home Alone” is not high, but because of the worldwide fame brought by “Home Alone”, this year’s time.

Stewart signed a string of astronomical endorsements that brought the couple tens of millions of dollars: “Charlie, I think most of the endorsements Stu signed were for one year? What if the advertisers knew that Stu was no longer in the cast? Home Alone is a sequel. Do you think you’re going to get tens of millions of dollars in endorsements from advertisers next year?” “Mr. Williams. You keep telling us, Why not mention yourselves. If the Home Alone sequel fails, Firefly could lose hundreds of millions of dollars, wouldn’t it? Our offer is very reasonable by comparison, after all, Stu is the only male lead in the film , he is unique.”

Eric shook his head: “If you insist on such a whimsical offer. Firefly, as the payer of Stu’s remuneration, finally only has 25% of the share left, and this part of the share is subtracted from the sequel that may exceed 25 million US dollars. The movie budget, in the end our profit may not be as much as Stu’s, let alone hundreds of millions of dollars lost. And, you’re wrong Brian, no one is unique in Hollywood, I can tell you, Firefly Now there is a backup plan. If your salary offer is too high, we plan to immediately open the audition for the young actors of the sequel to “Home Alone”. Through the audition, the fame of “Home Alone” can be hyped up again. And the final production The budget for the film may also be a fraction of $25 million.” Brian Kurtzman was about to retort, but Charlson Runkel, who was sitting beside him, couldn’t hold back any longer, and interjected: “Eric, it seems you haven’t said how much Firefly is going to pay Stu?” Damn!

Brian cursed, a strong urge to punch Lanker’s fat face.

“$8 million.” In terms of small salary, a long-term perspective can be seen by many people. Little Stu’s greater potential is in terms of advertising endorsements, as long as he can maintain enough fame with “Home Alone”. Then, you can still get it next year. To tens of millions of dollars in endorsement fees. With that, Stu can be the highest-paid star in Hollywood. Whether it’s Tom Cruise or Bruce Wiley or Julia Stuart.

Roberts, they not only can’t get a salary of 8 million, but they are even less likely to get a series of high-priced endorsements like Stu, because they have many competitors of the same age.

“Mr. Williams…” Brian Kurtzman knocked on the table, trying to interject. But Eric ignored him completely, Still staring at Charlison Runkel: “So, if Firefly uses the backup plan I just said, then there is no doubt that Stu’s reputation will plummet next year, and the sequel of “Home Alone” may be because of the replacement. It will bring certain risks, but the hope of success is still very high.

Once UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com is successful, you say, those advertisers will choose the new protagonist of “Home Alone” as the spokesperson or Stu, which is obvious, isn’t it?

Come to think of it, Charlie, you gave up tens of millions of dollars in order to stick to that unrealistic pay deal, oh no, maybe hundreds of millions of dollars, because there will be several Home Alone sequels, or It has always been Stu as the male lead, or Firefly will continue to use the audition plan and create a competitor for Stu every year.

After Eric finished speaking in one breath, fine beads of sweat had formed on Charlson Runkel’s forehead, and Brian Kurtzman sat down on the chair, he knew , they have completely failed in this negotiation. Because Charlson Langkel was completely persuaded by Eric, it is almost impossible for him to regain the initiative. (A good event that falls from the sky, cool mobile phones, etc. You take it!
