Producer [American Entertainment]

The deputy producer who resigned suddenly did not leave alone, but took the entire planning team with him.

"Is there an investigation into why he quit?" Wheeler asked Chapman.He is a filmmaker, not a gangster. If he is not happy, he will quit or die according to the gangster logic.Wheeler is easy to talk to, as long as the reasons are right.

But the bad thing about it is that the reasons... are not that convincing.

As soon as Chapman mentioned the associate producer, she didn't get angry. She went to solve the matter this morning and had a face-to-face chat with the person involved to see if there was room for maneuver, but the result disappointed her: " It’s nothing like he was suddenly diagnosed with a terminal illness. It’s just a very common drama. I feel that our temple is too small to accommodate his big Buddha. It’s just a verbal agreement, and I haven’t signed the contract yet. I’m going to break the contract, and I don’t want to take any legal responsibility. .”

Only then did William realize that sarcasm was only Chapman's personal characteristic.

It is actually very common for an associate producer to break a contract, whether it is in Hollywood or the workplace.Never, ever trust anyone's word of mouth until you sign a contract, because money is a bastard, and people are more of a bastard than money.

Wheeler's reputation is huge, and there are many people who want to work with him, but that doesn't mean everyone likes it.For example, in this movie, Wheeler is obviously seeking fame, not money.People who only like money can only part ways with Wheeler.Wheeler understands this and will support it. If the other party proposes to leave before the project starts, Wheeler will not be unhappy, and will even actively help the other party find a next home for the sake of their past friendship.

But that person shouldn't have quit after agreeing to Wheeler, seeing that the machine was about to be turned on.Being shaken like this, the Buddha will also be angry.

Wendy had been sitting on the side quietly listening professionally, but when she heard this, she couldn't help showing a rich expression of "I've never seen such a despicable and shameless person" on her face.He left as soon as he said he would, and took the whole team away. Is this going to kill the production team of the smoking gun? !

Wheeler was amused by Wendy's expression: "Don't worry, beautiful lady, I will make him pay the price. Probably because I rested for too long, some people have forgotten what kind of character I am, but it doesn't matter, they Will remember."

Wheeler never threatened, he just told the truth.

This is why Wheeler called William and Chapman to his house, not to care about William's first day of work, but to discuss how to deal with the old associate producer and find a new planning team.

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

William knew Wheeler well enough that he wouldn't just call him in and get angry with him.

"That's why I like you, you're smart." Wheeler wasn't polite to William. After all, the crew belonged to everyone, so he didn't believe that William wouldn't be angry if he did this. "Can you ask your cousin to lend me someone?"

"...I don't participate in the internal affairs of the family, and I don't advocate it." William wanted to help Wheeler, but if Wheeler wanted him to use the Bernstein family to do illegal things, then he would Can't help, because this is not helping, but hurting Wheeler.

"No, no, no," Wheeler smiled. When the chaos gets worse, his expression tends to show a kind of calmness that is no big deal. "I didn't make it clear, and you misunderstood. We are civilized people, Of course, we must use civilized means to solve the problem. I want to borrow Microsoft's legal counsel from your cousin."

The grandson who told me that he can no longer get along in this line of work!

Cough, it must be said that this legal advisor is not of the same nature as the legal advisor Hoffman of the old Bernstein family. Microsoft's legal department is full of serious lawyers who help people litigate. .

Wheeler naturally knew some well-known lawyers, and he also knew the phone numbers of many gold medal law firms in the United States, but when compared with Microsoft's legal department, those were all scum.

"No defeat, victory is justice. Many people are coveting your cousin's legal department. It's a pity that he never borrows, and I don't know how he did it. One piece of barrel, the lawyers inside are more loyal than each other, unmoved by threats and temptations. The chief of the legal department, Lawy, is even more slippery, even if you can't invite him, you can't even get angry. "Wheeler took care of the few uninformed people present and made a brief introduction on purpose.

Wendy, Meg, and Chapman also cooperated very well, all with "really uplifting" expressions on their faces.Everyone knows that Lexembla is legendary, but how legendary it is is mostly unclear.Wendy's personal experience is that whenever you think that the big boss is already awesome, he can subvert your perception with even more amazing past events.

"I didn't expect Roy to be so powerful." William naturally knew Roy, and there were very few people around his cousin that he didn't know.However, William didn't know much about Roy's great achievements in the past. He said to Wendy and Mig, "You two have seen it too. Don't be surprised to meet aliens."

"...I haven't seen it at all." Wendy swore that if she knew such a legendary character, she would definitely remember it.

"Roy and Mr. Special Assistant are twins. They often switch identities and follow Saba. The brother who wears glasses is the brother, and the brother who doesn't wear glasses is Roy."

"=口=!!!" I always thought it was a person!

William shrugged: "Now you know."

It is very easy to loan Roy, without asking Sabatino, William can directly agree.Because on the first day when Sabatino introduced the Roy brothers to William, Roy said to William: "I was lucky enough to pass the bar exam a few years ago. If you have any questions, no matter how big or small, please let me know." Contact me at the first time, no problem at what time. PS, don’t say a word to the police before I go to get you, you have the right to remain silent, eh?”

Although what Roy was worried about at the time was that William would be arrested for drunk driving in the middle of the night, or be violently beaten by paparazzi when he was secretly photographed, or get into the police because of drugs or prostitutes while clubbing.

But being broken a contract is also common.

Wheeler watched William's movements in silence, and as soon as the phone call came, he invited Lowe, who couldn't be hired by anyone.Wheeler finally fully understood what old Samuel meant by the phrase "William's importance to Lexenbra is definitely beyond what ordinary people can imagine".

mom!Egg!real!envy!Mu!Jealousy!jealous!hatred!

"OK, it's done. Lawy said he would fly over from Silicon Valley as soon as possible. I gave him your mobile phone and address directly. He will contact you when he arrives. Lawy said, don't worry, this is easy, even write on toilet paper The prenuptial agreement on the Internet can be regarded as an agreement, and he has a way to make it legally binding for a verbal agreement. We will discuss the specific effect when he comes. "

"Then, it's just a matter of recruiting a new planning team." Wheeler has been through the storm, and he quickly regained his sanity. "I called you here because I want you to follow along and learn. Finding a team is also a matter of knowledge. Before You missed it, we just made it up now.

"Where can I find people in this field?" If it's in the Cosmic Alliance, it's fine to post information directly on the Skynet. The Earth's network is not yet well-developed.

"It depends on what aspect you want, free or professional."

"Is there any free one?"

"Of course, many students in the School of Film and Television are willing to be volunteers. As long as you can give them what they want, such as a beautiful resume and practical learning experience. In this regard, I am not boasting, but if you mention my name , it will play a role to some extent." Wheeler replied with a smile, "Of course, my suggestion is, don't throw away the watermelon for sesame seeds."

"Free ones can certainly save the budget, but novices will always have problems of one kind or another." William understood in seconds.

"Yes, I once suffered a loss in this area, and paid a full [-] tuition fees for it. The [-] in that era is not the [-] now."

"How can I find someone with experience?" It can't be an introduction from an acquaintance, right?

"Acquaintances are a way, so connections are really important, don't learn from Chapman, you always offend people..." When Wheeler was teaching William, he didn't forget to say a few words about Chapman.

Chapman, who was regarded as a negative teaching material, dared not even say a word.

"... There is also a term called Producers Union, which can introduce you to various producers." Producers cannot have agents, but they have unions.In the United States, there are always various trade unions and associations, and they are never afraid of finding people.

William hadn't joined the Producers Union yet, and Wheeler also said that there was no rush. He asked to join, and the treatment would obviously be different from being invited.

"Do all production teams have to use experienced people?" William made inferences, "Can old people lead newcomers? It can save a little bit, and it can also train new teams."

"Alright." Wheeler nodded, "Thank you for helping me save money." The planning team was paid by Wheeler himself.

"Can I trade this idea for another condition?" William took a bold step forward.

"What do you want in exchange?" Wheeler looked at William encouragingly. He preferred this way of doing things with clear rewards and punishments. If you do well, you should be rewarded.

"I want Wendy to learn from the planning team."

"No problem, does the guy over there with such long hair that you can't see his face also want to join us?" Wheeler said sometimes, but it was actually quite...sharp.

"No." William shook his head, he had other arrangements for MiG.

Wendy was surprised, but she didn't ask aloud. She knew very well that it was not suitable for her to speak at this time.

Because Chapman was also surprised, she looked at William: "Do you really want your friend to follow suit?"

"I want to train my deputy for my future." This was William's idea about Wendy when he was in the blood red crew.As an excellent assistant-type talent, it would be too wasteful for Wendy to only do things like "record the itinerary" and "run errands to buy coffee".

Wheeler looked at William with appreciation. He consciously and step-by-step cultivated his own trustworthy person. This was more important than anything else. He believed that when William actually started making movies, he would be very successful because he had already made a movie. base.

After leaving Wheeler's house, Chapman caught up with William. After a long delay, he finally said with a blushing face, "Sorry."

Chapman can't change her prejudice, even though her aunt and uncle have warned her countless times, but those words can never compare with reality, and can teach her to be a human being.

At this time, in the movie, it is probably time for everyone to shake hands and make peace, to achieve success together, and to have a happy ending.

But this is not a movie, this is reality.

William raised his chin arrogantly, showed his attitude when he entered the MGM building on the first day, straightened his tie, and spoke in a standard RP voice without haste: "No need to apologize, I just miss you Know that, whether you like it or not, I'm going to do my best work in this suit."

Amidst the roar of tens of millions of luxury cars, William and his party drove away.
