MTL - Movie Master-Chapter 982 Knock the mountain and shake the tiger

readx();The relationship between the agency and the film company is very delicate. On the one hand, the two parties are in a cooperative relationship. Every work of the film company must go through the hands of the agency. Actors, screenwriters, directors, photographers...every position has Corresponding agents, the two sides have maintained a good cooperative relationship for a long time, which is a virtuous circle; on the one hand, the two parties are in a divided relationship, and both parties hope to win more benefits. The film company has the upper hand most of the time, because Hollywood does not No one is irreplaceable, but if the fish is dead and the net is broken, the brokerage company is not worried at all, especially the top giants like the innovative artist brokerage company, no one will tear their skin easily.

The first 20 million film salary, the first packaged cooperation project, the first actor to participate in the box office dividend... These are all promoted by the innovative artist agency, which completely reversed the absolute weak position of the actor and the film company in the process of cooperation. "The Age of Stars". This shows the energy of the brokerage company.

When it comes to taking on Creative Artists Agency, Lance has to keep his balance. If the pressure is too tight, they can replace Ben Affleck with Clive Owen as they did in "Sin City" and continue to cooperate. As far as the Creative Artists Agency is concerned, its value is limited, and it is maintained entirely by the contacts in the circle. As far as the Creative Artists Agency itself is concerned, it did not spend too much energy on Robert—otherwise, Robert would not personally block Lance , Percy fought for the opportunity, so once Lance exerted too much pressure, the choice of Creative Artists Management Company was clear at a glance.

But the problem is that Lance does not want to replace Robert. Leaving aside the success of the previous life, now that Lance has evidence, he can win more advantages for Chaos Films. Naturally, Lance does not want this advantage to rot in his hands .

Therefore, Lance is just knocking the mountain to shake the tiger.

After hanging up the phone, Lance dialed Theo's mobile phone number, and began to talk about the "interesting things" that happened in the short period of time with a leisurely expression; Speaking of which, although they are the most expensive among the top five brokerage companies today, they are still unwilling to easily offend a top big name like Lance. Whether it is seeking fame or profit, Lance is currently the best choice in Hollywood.

Terrance's first reaction was to contact several agents including Wade Russell and Mark Johnson. After explaining the situation succinctly, others began to use their contacts to inquire. They must I know how far the situation has developed now, whether the so-called evidence exists, and how many paparazzi have evidence in their hands. It is impossible for them to be in chaos because of Lance's one-sided words. The first task is to grasp the situation by themselves.

Later, Terence called Robert, but no one answered! Terence quickly started calling other people around Robert, hoping to contact Robert as soon as possible, but it was like a stone sink, even his assistant had no clue, and even had to mobilize Robert's new wife Susan Downey ( Susan-Downey) began to search, could it be that in which corner Robert was hiding and puffing? dudu1();

After a long circle, Susan still found Robert through the family nanny, "I was in the gym just now." This is the reason Robert gave, but whether it is true or not, only Robert himself knows.

"You f/m are joking with me!" Terrence yelled directly, but he quickly restrained himself, and now there are more urgent matters waiting to be dealt with, "Tell me, what is your period of time?" Didn't you meet up with the former dealer?"

"...No!" Robert paused for a moment, but he still said firmly, "Terrence, you should know that I'm already clean, thoroughly clean, and after meeting Susan, I will..."

"You don't need to swear in front of me, I don't care if you relapse, I don't care at all!" Terrence roughly interrupted Robert's vowed words, "But now the problem is, there are rumors that paparazzi I took a picture of you and the trafficker together, so tell me, is it true?" Or are those paparazzi talking nonsense, such situations are common, and there are countless things of extortion and extortion, so he needs Robert to admit it himself, This way they can work with the PR team to develop a response strategy.

"Terence!" Robert shouted, his words were full of difficulties, but there was no more to say. Terence raised his hand and smashed the coffee cup on the table against the wall. A series of swearing, Robert's silence and hesitation is the best proof, Terence only felt the anger in his chest was burning.

"Weed, it's just a dozen marijuana!" Robert quickly argued, "And, I didn't intend to smoke at all, I just... just wanted to smell it. I swear, I mean it! I Really not going to smoke! Really! Don't tell Susan, okay?"

"As I said, I don't care. It doesn't make any difference to me whether it's marijuana or heroin. Even if you overdose and died in the bathtub, I won't blink!" Terrence waved his hand waved, and said nonchalantly, "But no one can smash the project I want, no one can ruin my reputation, do you hear the hell? No one! If you want to make a comeback, you just want him /Mum keep it clean for me! If you still want to play a superhero, you /mum/hide all the weed for me!" dudu2();

As Terence said, in fact, it is not the end of the world for artists to be involved in drugs. As long as they are not caught by the media, everything will be fine. But for Robert, the drug/substance issue is not that simple, because every time Robert has an accident on the crew, which affects the filming progress of the crew, and even affects other staff members and partners. Robert was completely ruined because of his reputation. , and then disappeared. Now, is Robert going to make the same mistakes again?

Terrence clearly knew that if Robert made trouble in Lance's crew, with Lance's current reputation and connections, it would be almost effortless to pinch Robert to death. At that time, the innovative artist management company will also be labeled as lax in management, which is the last thing Terence wants to see.

"Robert Downey Jr.!" Terrence almost gritted his teeth, and said word by word, "Throw all those **** marijuana/marijuana/cigarettes down the toilet and flush them down, or I'll just replace you .Acting talent is hard to find, there are vases playing superheroes all over the street!"

"... Terrence!" Robert tried to argue, but the phone was hung up. Robert anxiously called back, but there was only a busy tone, and his whole heart was half cold. The whole person froze in place, then rushed to the bathroom, took out all the marijuana hidden in the toilet paper roll, threw it into the toilet, and flushed it quickly, looking at the scattered marijuana / Ma / Ye, just felt dizzy for a while, and his legs began to weaken when he leaned against the wall, and he fell to the ground directly, at a loss.

After hanging up the phone, Terence immediately called the PR company they worked with, and they must take precautions. Regardless of the situation at Lance's place, they must do more paparazzi to grasp the evidence and even break the news. Only in this way can we ensure that things will not deviate from the development track.

After the explanation, Terence had an impromptu meeting with other agents, and after discussing a preliminary result, he adjusted his mood and dialed Lance's phone number again. At this point, forty minutes had passed.

The phone rang for a while but no one answered it. Terence took a sip of whiskey and tried to calm himself down, not to be distracted by the irritability. Finally, the phone was connected, "Hey, Lance!" Terence They greeted each other proactively, and the enthusiastic attitude took the lead in expressing their position, "Sorry, I stumbled on something just now, and the call back is a bit late." dudu3();

"Hope brings good news." Lance seemed to have calmed down his anger, but the indifference and alienation in his words made Terence's alarm ring loudly.

Recalling the confrontation in the past few years, when we met for the first time, he was proud of his horseshoe. He had just signed with Woody Allen, and his career was on the rise. Naturally, he didn't care too much about a young director like Lance. But in the blink of an eye, their positions have changed drastically. Let alone him as an agent, even the CEO of an innovative artist agency needs to maintain a good attitude in front of Lance.

Terrence let out a long breath and considered his tone, "So, can you tell me the specific situation in detail, I mean, what are those rumors going on? How much truth does the paparazzi have? "

Lance raised his eyebrows~www.novelbuddy.com~ You mean, all of this is based on speculation? "Terence's words meant to defend Robert, and Lance didn't follow Terence's guidance, and directly pierced the window paper and asked back.

"Who knows? Hehe, this is Hollywood, and a little rumor can ruin a star's reputation in Vanity Fair." Terrence said bravely, he needed to know how much evidence Lance had—or, in other words, the paparazzi How much evidence did he have, and how much Lance knew.

Lance chuckled lightly, what Terence meant inside and outside the words: If the matter is not serious, this matter should be dismissed, "Then I said, because of this little wind, I want to replace the male lead, What do you think of this proposal?"

With such a strong tone, and almost without giving too much maneuvering tone, Terence wanted to push his neck back impulsively, "Then replace it!" But he knew that he couldn't, this was an irrational choice. In the confrontation with Lance, any irrationality may become a trap for himself, "Ha, your sense of humor is always so good."
