Chapter 374: Status

David Beronatz plays the vampire angel in the TV series "Buffy the Ghost Catcher" and "Angel".√∟ "Angel the Night Catcher" is a spin-off of "Buffy the Ghost Catcher". Beronatz plays a vampire with a dual personality in these two TV series related. Sometimes he wants to save lives with a kind "angel" with a human soul, and sometimes he is the evil demon "Angelus" who has lost his soul.

The effect of the viewing mirror is also good, but unfortunately Chen Tian is still too picky.

It was not until Johnny Depp, who was supposed to have risen to this point, but Chen Tian changed his future trajectory and failed to make a comeback, that he truly confirmed his role.

There is no doubt that if you want to find a few actors in Hollywood who are most suitable to play vampires, John, Depp will definitely be one of the list. Unfortunately, his salary is not low, and only a big production like "Van Helsing" can capture all these big names in one go.

Depp, who had not starred in "Pirates of the Caribbean" at this time, did not have that big temper. After receiving the invitation, he readily agreed.

Finally, Peck asked a key question, "Warner came over to inquire and wanted to participate in the project of "Van Helsing". Twentieth Century Fox, Paramount, and Disney all had inquiries..."

The script outline is placed in the script library. Nowadays, no one in Hollywood can easily ignore Chen Tiandu's script. Even though this guy is a Chinese, he touched many people's cheese in time. This script only received a level a review in Warner's script judging committee, while Disney is only a level b+, but if the lineup of male and female actors and directors is added, it is the level a+ without a doubt.

An investment of $140 million. If the promotional expenses are included, it may be higher. This is risky, but they cannot reject the temptation.

Let’s calculate the past record. "The Sixth Sense" North America has 300 million in the world, the two plots of "Infinite Storm" in North America have 200 million in the world, and the global box office of "The Hacker" trilogy has 250 million in the world, and "Speed" is also a super-selling production.

Nowadays, Peter Jackson is the new director who can have such a superior box office performance in the whole world. Only Chen Tiandu is left. The American world is xenophobic, and 90% of theaters are open to non-American films. Even when Bruce Lee was at its peak, it was not recognized by the mainstream society. But none of these matters, it doesn't matter whether he excludes his bloodline or his skin color. Everything will become easy to negotiate in front of the US dollar.

Therefore, after reviewing Chen Tiandu's new script, they rejected the newly emerging companies in Hollywood on the one hand and silently suppressed them in some aspects. On the other hand, they gave olive branches dryly.

This is the real Hollywood.

Chen Tian didn't think much about this issue and said: "We are under great pressure to produce several super-large productions at the same time. And we have to take into account the development of Marvel, which is too risky. So let's talk about this project, you know my bottom line."

Everyone nodded to show that they understood, it's copyright.

The most important thing is that the fund lifeline cannot be seized by the issuing company, so Chen Tian does not have a department to cooperate with giants, and will pay a lot of money by himself, looking for a third-party accounting agency as a fulcrum, and looking for a full monitoring of the lawyer team. If the money does not pass by himself, it will not be controlled by the other party, and will be firmly controlled by the other party.

The whole meeting lasted a full day, and everyone was in high spirits, even after working hours, they knew nothing. In the end, Lin Zhiling reminded Chen Tiandu that the plane to New York was about to take off, so they stopped.

He looked at his watch, stood up and said, "Okay, let's do it according to the current arrangement. If there is any situation, please contact me."

...

No one was optimistic about them before the broadcast of "The Big Bang Theory". This is a cast without familiar faces. Although mm TV has made a lot of publicity on the playback of the show. Even Jim Parsons, Rachel McAdams and others are confused. They are all chosen by Chen Tian for no reason. They are also filmed such a TV series that carries the responsibility of the rise of the TV station. It is really Alexander.

Such a short sitcom, as long as you find the feeling, you can shoot many episodes in a few days.

"The Big Bang Theory" is a sitcom with a net film of 43 minutes in each episode. Unlike American dramas in drama, each episode of a sitcom is a complete story, unlike American dramas in dramas that value narrative techniques and suspense arrangements.

As a sitcom, you can just be funny, and there is no need to worry about narrative techniques.

We tell jokes, not stories.

After the post-production was completed, Chen Tiandu accompanied several senior executives of the TV production department to watch several episodes in the screening hall, but still couldn't suppress the laughter in the middle.

"Okay, that's all."

Chen Tiandu stood up, and the projectionist stopped the screening at the right time and turned on the lights in the projection room.

"Guys, let's applaud the crew." His motivation made the screening room full of applause. Chuck Noel and Larry both smiled. As an employee, after working hard for several months, what is more precious than the boss's recognition?

"Thank you, the boss, the main thing is that your script is well written. What we did is nothing." Larry complimented.

Chen Tiandu patted his shoulder and said, "Let's do it, I bought a new home in New York and haven't held a moving party yet. I'll hold a party at home this weekend, which can be considered as a preheating for the release of the series. I hope everyone will come here by then. Chuck, Larry, remember to bring some of our little actors with me at that time."

Everyone nodded with a smile. They all knew that Chen Tiandu spent nearly half a million dollars at the beginning of the year to buy the most famous sky garden villa in New York, and he bought the three top floors.

The sky-high transaction fees also hit a new high for New York property trading this year.

The newspapers are uploaded very well, such as tarmac, sky garden, sky swimming pool, sky amusement park, and even sports fields. You can see the Hudson River at a glance...

But many people don’t know what it looks like. Now that they are invited by their boss, they feel honored no matter how much they say.

Chen Tiandu held a moving party. Of course, he would not only invite these people.

He is a Chinese. He has developed from Los Angeles to New York. In fact, he has not been integrated into this circle. Although the status of money can help him integrate into this place, it is very small. What New York does not lack the most is rich people. If you want to truly enter the circle, you will definitely not be wrong with communication.

He sent invitation letters to all those who could invite these things. Then he handed over the party to Lin Zhiling, which was also a test for her.

Soon, news that Christmas Chen was going to hold a party in his new mansion spread throughout the New York circle. It is conceivable how many well-known producers and directors will come to participate. Many little stars tried every means to ask their agents, hoping to get an invitation letter.

Simon Cowell, who came from the UK, was also invited. At first, he was surprised by the five invitations he sent to his hands. However, he had recently attended several gatherings of friends in the music circle and heard them talking about Christmas party topics, and only then did he realize that the extra invitations he had in his hands were so useful.

He pretended to give a few photos to Zheng Huande's young singer who was talking to him. He was immediately looked at him with admiration and kept guessing what his relationship with Christmas Chen was. Simon enjoyed it very much.

He has been busy with the fact that mm TV is responsible for the production of "American Idol", and now he is also intrigued. After the final submission to Chen Tiandu, he will officially start the nationwide publicity talent show journey. Although the big part of this program is Chen Tiandu's, his success in the UK also makes him full of confidence in the American version. He has reason to believe that once the program is broadcast, he will immediately become a celebrity in the New York entertainment industry.

Success is right in front of him, and he can't wait.

On the other hand, Natalie Portman was not in such a good mood. She was a little overjoyed when she received Chen Tiandu’s script, especially because she hoped for this role. She was also very suitable for her age. Sometimes she even suspected that this was tailor-made by Chen Tiandu for her. This discovery made her wonder. The agent’s words woke her up.

"Nate, where did you and Christmas Chen go? I didn't get any news." Agent Fei Li looked at her with ambiguous eyes.

Natalie was shocked and pretended to be puzzled: "What are you saying, what step, am I asking you about the contract?"

"This is indeed very strange. The matrix has a very low pay and is only willing to give 500,000. It is said that this is a small production, and the investment will not exceed tens of millions. If it weren't for the director, if you hadn't insisted on playing this role, I would have suspected that Christmas Chen was the number one miser in Hollywood." You should know that after acting in "Star Wars", Natalie seemed to be an outstanding representative of the new generation of actresses. The pay was not tens of millions, at least seven or eight million.

When Natalie heard that she only had a pay of 500,000 yuan and her investment would not exceed 10 million yuan, she was also a little dazed. She didn't expect it to be so low.

What can I shoot for tens of millions of dollars? This is because Christmas Chen didn't get paid for his filming, otherwise he would not even pay enough for his salary.

Seeing that her expression was strange and pretending to be too similar, Fei Li said with some doubts: "Aren't you dating? Although I have no say in this, the whole world knows that Christmas Chen's real girlfriend is Kate Beckinsale, and they just returned from a honeymoon trip in advance. I admit that Christmas Chen is very popular now. If you can have such a boyfriend, it will be very good for any woman in Hollywood's career. Maybe you can have a higher status than Kate Beckinsale now, so you'd better be prepared..."

Natalie understood it now and shook her arms in shame, "What did you say? We didn't have any relationship."

Fei Li was a little surprised, "Are you serious?"

Natalie nodded with certainty, feeling a little expectant and a little resentful.

Fei Li calmed down and continued to ask, "Have he asked you recently, or did he look at you with admiration?" Natalie was not calm now. There must be no date, but Chen Tiandu was indeed a little impressed with her. She was not a fool, otherwise she would not have impressed the French man when she was a teenager and won the first heroine. Later, she even used her Jewish identity and precocious personality to join Lucas, who was also Jewish, and became the world-famous Star Wars Queen.

But what has she worked hard for Chen Tiandu?

There was nothing, and Chen Tian came up with it on his own initiative. She could get the role before she even auditioned.

Hollywood is realistic, and no producer will tailor a movie for a certain actress without any desire. If it really appears, there is no doubt that he will fall in love with you. Just make it a point, he wants to get to you.

To be honest, she was not disgusted with this legendary young man and had a little longing. But a girl of this age always had a hint of arrogance in her heart. The conflict between reality and ideals always made her feel a little hit.

Natalie shook her head irritably, not wanting to speak.

Fei Li was also a little disappointed. She didn't understand what Christmas Chen meant. She thought she was going to make a fortune. She knew her employer and didn't want things to get worse. She decided to remind her in a tactful way and said, "Nate, if possible, I hope you can have a good relationship with Christmas Chen. He has a good reputation in the circle. He has all the unique advantages of Oriental people. Maybe he just appreciates you. It happened that he had a party in New York on the last weekend. I will ask you for an invitation letter. You can seize the opportunity."

Natalie was shocked, but lowered her head and said nothing.

The Hollywood circle is bright on the surface, but in fact, the dark side of the deviation is enough to make people vomit. She is not a newcomer. A few days ago, she heard a girl who is almost young and pretty. She was sleeping with more than a dozen producers and even took the initiative to attend the producer's carnival party to get a small supporting role. But she was so unlucky that she accidentally got pregnant. The most unlucky thing was that she didn't know who the child's father was. After going to the hospital to abort, she was injured and fell ill. She stayed in the hospital for a long time before she recovered. But her pregnancy scared the producer, and the role she finally got was replaced, which was extremely unlucky.

Compared with that girl, she was undoubtedly lucky. Now that she thought about what she had done, she dared to scold Chen Tiandu around the bush on the phone. If Chen Tian was just a petty person, this one would be enough to sentence her to death. After thinking through this, she felt that it was not that difficult to accept.
