Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

Therefore, under the competition of public stations, they have found a different way and created a special method of surviving on large-scale TV dramas.

Public stations can't screen the audience, and the scale is naturally not large.

However, pay TV stations are optional, especially if minors want to pay.

For pay TV stations, ratings are really about how many paying subscribers there are.

What was agreed before was that if there were one million viewers watching, it would be settled according to normal TV series.

For every million that follows, there is a certain percentage of growth.

The Pirates of the Caribbean drama has achieved a box office result of six million simultaneous viewers.

Of course, this is the overall grade, taken as an average.

For this reason, HBO paid Sunrise Movies a high price of five million dollars per episode, excluding the cost, which can be regarded as generating more than 20 million US dollars in net income for Sunrise Movies.

The two brothers also received a lot of bonuses.

The recent days have been very moist, very happy, and happy every day.

"Director Kevin."

As soon as they entered, the two respectfully called Kevin's name and occupation.

As for the title of Kevin's boss, because Kevin doesn't like it very much, let them all stop shouting.

So now, the title for him within the company is unified as director Kevin.

Kevin adjusted his expression and said in a gentle voice:

"Sit."

After the two were seated, Kevin got down to business.

"Have you seen Spider-Man?"

"I watched it yesterday."

The Russo brothers quickly nodded in response, and at the same time rejoiced in their hearts that when it premiered yesterday, they took the time to watch Spider-Man at night.

Otherwise, it was a little embarrassing to be asked by Kevin and directly said that he didn't watch it.

Their happy expressions, Kevin all looked at it, and couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking, it doesn't matter if you see it or not, I definitely won't say anything because of this."

The Russell brothers smiled a little, an expression that they had thought about overthought.

In fact, he secretly said in his heart, if he really wants to say that, the devil knows if Kevin will wear small shoes for them in the future, which is not emphasized is okay, as soon as it is emphasized, it makes them think more.

At the same time, they decided in their hearts that in the future, Kevin's new movie will be released, no matter how busy they are, they will also go to watch it immediately, so as not to happen again.

Kevin certainly didn't know what they were thinking.

Calling them over, there is something serious to find them, it is related to Spider-Man's follow-up, naturally ask them if they have seen Spider-Man.

Now that you've seen it, some things are easy to say.

Kevin said positively:

"You have seen Spider-Man, the rest is easy to say, I hope you can become the director of the Spider-Man sequel in the future."

The Russell brothers were shocked by this sudden surprise.

So far, there is only one Pirates of the Caribbean TV series worth mentioning.

From a TV series director, to a big production director, this span is too big.

Younger brother Joe Russell said with an unconfident tone:

"Director Kevin, this... I'm afraid our brother is not capable enough to take on this task."

The Russell brothers are still very sober, of course, it is also a satisfaction with the current situation.

Being able to become a TV series director stably is actually a rare thing in the United States, and there are many directors in the directors' union who have no drama to film.

At present, their basic plate is not stable, so they rush to become the director of a big production, and once the box office fails, they don't know when they will be able to get the opportunity again.

Therefore, they are also careful and careful about Kevin's sudden idea of making them the director of Spider-Man.

The Russo brothers replied steadily, which made Kevin sure that they could really take on this heavy responsibility.

Only then continued:

"Of course not right away, the company has two big productions to start filming, I am going to arrange for you brothers to go to two crews as assistant directors, I will let Schneider and Mitt try to teach you more experience."

"When you finish training, let's shoot Spider-Man, and I'll arrange another small investment for you to practice."

"If this little production can surprise me, by then"

Spider-Man Part II, Kevin is expected to start filming in '99.

In the middle, there was still nearly a year and a half to temper them, and Kevin Jue still had plenty of time.

Although the profession of directing is more fragrant the older it gets, in fact, most of the real famous directors have already come out when they are young.

Of course, this refers to being in your thirties, but not that young.

That is to say, when directors have the experience they should have, what level their film is, what level it should be.

As you get older, you may not be more powerful in this regard.

Directing is a profession that values talent.

Cameron, a truck director, was just a truck driver before he became a director.

But after self-taught as a director, the first work showed amazing talent.

This makes sense to those academic directors where to go.

The Russo brothers can direct so many Marvel blockbusters in the future and get such a high box office, which proves that they have this strength.

Kevin is now just helping them discover their talent earlier.

"Thank you, Director Kevin, then we agree."

Kevin has said this, and the Russo brothers naturally can't refuse.

If the small production fails, then they don't have the face to be the director of the sequel to the Spider-Man movie.

If it succeeds, then it is not impossible for this kind of big director to be a big director.

"Well, the new movie is still in preparation, you can get busy with the second season of Pirates of the Caribbean first."

The work was arranged.

The Russell brothers left.

It was time for Kevin's end of work, five o'clock.

The driver and bodyguards were already waiting for Kevin in the company's parking lot.

On the other hand, Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio reappeared in the nightclub.

At this time, Tobey Maguire was showing the girls in the bar a stunt, like a master of playing cards in a gambling movie, and the cards were moving in his hand, making the girls scream.

"Leonardo, after the Titanic, don't you have a date?"

Tobey Maguire asked casually.

"No, I starred in this kind of blockbuster, now let me go to a general small production, I have no interest anymore."

"I haven't been looking for me in any blockbuster recently, so I hope to be the leading actor in a movie directed by Steve Kevin like you."

As soon as these words came out, Tobey Maguire was somewhat weak-hearted.

Stopped the cards in his hand and dispersed the girl.

Tobey Maguire rubbed his head and said with a little worry:

"I don't know how Spider-Man's box office is, I don't have a relationship with the theater line, I won't know until tomorrow in the newspaper."

"You don't have me."

Leonardo answered, and at the same time couldn't wait to call and ask friends from the theater line.
