Chapter 76 Super Potential Clients

Please vote for recommendation!

This year is 2001. If the new film can successfully enter theaters like "Fruit Hard Candy", wouldn't it be your own dying when it is released in September? If you don't talk about anything else, then the psychological endurance of the whole United States will definitely be fragile to the lowest level. How many people are willing to watch such a bloody and cruel film?

If possible, Murphy wants to complete it as soon as possible and find the right publisher to try to enter theaters by August.

It was soon after noon. After lunch in the studio, I told Paul Wilson a few words that Murphy went out and drove into the Ford and went to meet with the person he had made an appointment before.

The meeting was at a cafe in Century City. The two sides made an appointment at two o'clock. Murphy arrived a while ago and waited for about half an hour before Nick Clebert, who had met before, arrived.

"Hello, Nick." Murphy's tone seemed quite familiar, and it was impossible to tell at all that the two of them met for the second time, "We're meeting again."

Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man in his thirties, the props introduced by Cara Fais, who did not reach an agreement last time due to salary issues.

"Hello, Director Stanton." He nodded to Murphy.

"I'm preparing for a new work," the two had already talked on the phone, and Murphy didn't go around in circles. "I need an experienced prop teacher."

The prop artist and makeup artist are very important to the new project. The makeup artist will continue to use Jack Watson. There is no suitable candidate for the prop artist.

Nick Clebert is Murphy's first choice for the time being. The other party has been in the industry for more than ten years and has participated in the shooting of many films, including second-tier productions with investments of more than ten million US dollars, which is definitely considered to be experienced.

"Director Stanton, I've seen the work plan you sent to my mailbox." Nick Clebert put one hand on the coffee cup and frowned. "It may conflict with my work schedule. I'm going to be involved in a major DreamWorks project in July."

Hearing the other party's lack of traces of using DreamWorks to raise his value, Murphy smiled and said, "The two jobs are not in conflict. It's only March now, and my project can be completed in late May at the latest. You can stay in the crew for up to five weeks..."

After Carafes recommended last time, Murphy had seen the works that the other party participated. This is indeed a very capable person. If you want to impress such a person, no matter how much saliva is, it is a sweet word. It is better to use the most practical method.

Murphy said calmly, "I promise, your weekly salary will not be less than five thousand dollars."

For second-tier props, this is already a very high number.

Hearing this number, Nick Clebert was obviously moved, but he did not agree immediately. He thought for a while and said, "My agent is not present, I cannot reply."

"Can you know his contact information?" Murphy knew that the other party was already moved. Nick Claibert took out a business card and handed it over. Murphy took a look and said, "I will contact him."

If there is no accident, this prop master has decided.

After leaving the cafe, Murphy did not return to the studio. He called Bill Roses first, walked around Century City, and walked into the building where Caa was located.

Taking the elevator directly to the floor of Bill Roses's office, Murphy recalled, walked along a long corridor to the end, and knocked on the door of an office.

This is a large office shared by multiple people. In addition to Bill Roses's desk beside the window, Murphy also saw at least four other desks, which also showed Bill Roses' position in the brokerage industry and caa.

Just like Murphy thought, he was just one of the many ordinary agents.

"Hi, Murphy." Bill Roses walked over and greeted warmly, "Here."

He was not the only agent in the office, not the place to speak. He took Murphy out of the office and entered a reception room next to him.

"Sit as you like." Bill Roses pointed to the sofa in the reception room, walked to the shelf where drinks were placed, and turned around and asked, "What to drink?"

"Just like water." Murphy looked at the reception room, which was decorated in a luxurious manner.

Bill Roses brought a glass of water, placed it on the coffee table next to Murphy, and sat on another sofa.

"Is the script completed?" He seemed extremely concerned. "When will the preparations start? What do I need to do?"

"I'm still revising the script." Murphy picked up the water cup and took a sip, and said slowly, "It will take about next month to start preparations."

"Yeah." Bill Roses nodded, but reminded, "If you have anything to do, just speak."

From "Hard Fruit Candy", he received a commission of 5% and this 50,000 US dollars can increase his income this year by at least half.

And as an ordinary agent, who doesn’t want to continue climbing upwards and have an independent office on the upper floor and a dedicated female assistant?

Not to mention having a big-name director, as long as he can have a second-rate director, he can enjoy this kind of treatment. The value a second-rate director can create is far more important than that of a second-rate actor.

But who would like to work with an agent like him with a certain reputation? Like other agents who climbed up through actors or directors, digging by yourself is the most reliable way.

Now, he has raised Murphy's potential to this level.

Bill Roses got the exact news that under the operation of Miramax, "Fruit Hard Candy" created nearly five times the North American box office with a production cost of $300,000, and the total market output was more than ten times, and this number is still increasing...

After all, this is a circle of speaking based on grades. Bill Rossis believes that Murphy is likely to bring a breakthrough to him.

Of course, he must pay great attention to such super potential customers.

Bill Roses looked at Murphy as if he was looking at the most beautiful woman in the world.

He came to see him specifically, of course Murphy had something to do, put down the water cup and said, "You also know that when filming "Hard Fruit Candy", most people were hired at low wages and lacked abilities. Except for Jack Watson, I will not cooperate with them again."

Bill Roses nodded slightly. This was also what he valued Murphy. Not only did he successfully complete "Hard Fruit Candy" with such a group of pigs, the final effect exceeded his expectations.

He spent a long time on the crew, like the lighting artist and the setter, just pure labor, and could not keep up with Murphy's ideas at all. He could only passively complete his work under the command of his director, and could not even be considered basic cooperation.

Of course, he also knew that with the salary offered by Murphy, meeting someone like Jack Watson can only be said to be lucky.

"The new crew needs a lot of behind-the-scenes jobs," Murphy said again, "I need someone with guaranteed abilities. Caa should not lack such staff, right?"

"It's definitely not short. Even if a novice is a stubborn person, his ability is guaranteed."
