Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

What kind of behemoth it will develop into in the future, just thinking about Kevin makes me excited.

.....

Four days later, Earth Ambition was released.

As a movie starring Tom Cruise, as soon as it was released, it seized part of the big screen that escaped from Desperate Town.

In particular, this is the first movie of his husband and wife with Nicole Kidman, which has attracted the attention of countless people.

So far, as of fourteen days, the box office of Escape from Desperate Town has reached a total box office of more than 111.85 million in North America.

It will take a few more weeks, but the potential is already over.

It is expected that another 20 to 30 million box office is already its limit.

As an investor, Kevin, at the beginning, can benefit more than 20 million US dollars in cash, and then there is a fine stream of 30% of the copyright income, which continues to flow into his pocket.

It's a big profit.

Of course, it was still early for the money to go into his pocket, and he needed to start his next project early.

He abandoned all the things in the outside world, concentrated all his spirits, and spent all his time writing new plans in the villa except for going to the library from time to time.

After the Ghost Rider project, Kevin finally thought of a new project, that is, Tom Cruise's true superstar's masterpiece, Mission Impossible.

Mission Impossible, as a classic American drama, was broadcast from 1966 to 1973, with a total of more than 170 episodes, and has a very sufficient viewing base in the United States.

Such a huge IP, placed in front of Kevin, makes Kevin inevitably want to move.

In this era, there has not yet been a boom in IP adaptation, and people's biggest use of IP, that is, comic adaptations or novel adaptations, but there are not many successful works.

It is far less mature than the use of IP in later generations.

However, what makes Kevin headache is that Paramount is strong at this time, the overall valuation is estimated at a price of 10 billion US dollars, and the company's cash flow is very abundant.

He wanted to win the copyright of Mission Impossible, it was too difficult and difficult.

Unless it is only a part of the benefits, then there is a slight possibility.

However, to negotiate in his capacity, there is no possibility of success, only MGM or Warner dispatch, this possibility is possible.

Thinking of this, Kevin no longer hesitated, took out the business card of the president of MGM from his wallet, and dialed the number above.

....

MGM President LTECH is handling MGM's business within the company.

Looking at the movie plans in his hand one after another, LTECH couldn't help but raise his forehead.

There are too many novice directors, and the proposals they produce are often unclear and at the same time have a lot of wild ideas.

At first glance, LTECH knew that the probability of loss was more than ninety percent.

Thinking of this, LTECH couldn't help but look at his personal mobile phone.

After so many days, the director still hasn't contacted him, which can't help but disappoint him very much.

Thinking of this, Reite picked up another newspaper and read the news about escaping from Desperate Town.

[Box office dark horse, an excellent thriller with a production cost of only 3 million, won a box office score of 111 million in North America in 14 days, escaped from Desperate Town, a good movie worth watching. ]

Leite couldn't help but feel a trace of envy in his heart.

MGM hasn't had a movie with such a high profit margin for a long time.

If it weren't for the copyright of excellent works such as 007, Cat and Mouse to provide them with a steady stream of income, I am afraid that MGM would have gone out of business long ago.

[Escape from Desperate Town, expected to win the top ten box office results of the year, enviable box office dark horse, director Steve Kevin's behind-the-scenes story... 】

【···· With

this envious thought, Reiter was even more determined to cooperate with Kevin.

"Toot toot!"

The private phone rang, and LTECH instantly picked up the phone and answered the call, only then did he feel that he was too anxious.

Quickly adjusted his tone, pretending to be calm:

"Hey, I'm MGM President Reiter Wincherstein, are you?"

"I'm Steve Kevin, I'm calling, I want to discuss with you about new film investment, I don't know if you have time tomorrow, I also made an appointment with the president of Warner Bros."

Kevin's calm voice came from the other end of the phone, and Reiter held back his excitement and continued:

"No problem, I have time, where?"

"The Royal Dining Pavilion near Hollywood, a high-end Chinese restaurant, I heard that it is a restaurant opened by the descendants of the imperial chefs who cooked for the emperor of the Chinese Kingdom."

"Well, tomorrow at noon, I'll be there on time."

Hanging up the phone, Reiter beamed.

Kevin's message was obvious, and he was willing to work with them to give MGM the right to invest in his next film.

MGM, saved.

Of course, MGM must also be saved, and if not, his president may step down next year.

....

After calling MGM's president, Kevin called Jeff Robinoff again.

With Kevin's credentials in the success of two consecutive films, now Jeff Robinoff talks about the investment of the third film, and Jeff Robinoff will certainly not refuse.

Set an appointment and hang up.

Angelina Jolie immediately leaned in.

"Kevin, the heroine of Mission Impossible Part II?"

"Over to you."

Kevin said with a smile.

Angelina Jolie, suddenly excited, made a wink, and said softly:

"Kevin, let's go to the bedroom and take a shower."

Faced with such a straightforward request, Kevin decisively followed Julie's back into the bedroom.

The bedroom of the villa is also not small, similar to a small room, with a huge bathtub, enough to accommodate four or five people.

........

The next day, Kevin, who tossed with Julie for another night, slept until ten o'clock to recover, and then went out to take a taxi to the royal dining room in Hollywood.

Sitting in the car, Kevin also thought that he should find an assistant and driver now.

Ideally, the driver should also be able to double as a bodyguard.

In the United States, every day of the free shootout, he is now more or less rich, and it is not good if no bodyguard is killed or kidnapped one day.

This kind of thing has to be solved by CAA.

After calling Dawson and saying what he wanted.

Kevin quietly enjoyed the scenery outside.

.....

An hour later, at 11 o'clock, Kevin arrived at the Royal Dining Pavilion.

A Chinese woman wearing a cheongsam walked over and said in fluent English:

"Hello, do you have an appointment?"

Kevin hasn't used Chinese for a long time, and it's rare to see Chinese descent, so he showed off his hand Chinese and said

, "Yes, in the Tianzi Room on the third floor."

A trace of dazedness flashed on the face of the Chinese American, which made Kevin somewhat disappointed, after all, it was not that country.
