"Evan, I just heard Sean say, you're going to give the actors of the 'NCIS' a collective raise?" David Greenblatt heard the call connected, but the voice on the other end had not yet come out , said impatiently, his voice sounded a little irritable and a little annoyed.

"Yes." Evan Bell only had time to give a positive response, and before the subsequent explanation could catch on, he heard David Greenblatt on the other end of the phone immediately interrupted Evan Bell's words behind, directly Said, "I'm going to look for you now." Then just hung up the phone. Evan Bell looked at the beeping phone, couldn't help smiling, and put the phone back in his pocket.

Yesterday, Evan Bell and David Greenblatt had a pleasant negotiation on the matter of "Doctor House". I didn't expect that the two of them would have another paragraph on the matter of "Naval Criminal Investigative Service" today. What a delightful negotiation.

But David Greenblatt hung up so quickly that Evan Bell didn't even have time to tell him that he was now at the Screen Actors Guild. But think about it, David Greenblatt is so anxious, it is good to let him calm down, so Evan Bell is not in a hurry to go back, but continues to be busy with the things at hand.

After leaving the studio just now, Evan Bell came to the Actors Guild of America again. On the one hand, he thought of several names of available actors and needed help from the union; on the other hand, he wanted to confirm the second interview. Because the interview was conducted yesterday, there are no more new actors who want to appear in "Mysterious Skin" for the time being. Evan Bell is also temporarily unable to confirm when the second interview should be set, so he can only wait. and so on.

After leaving the union, Evan Bell walked down Wilshire Boulevard. The Four Seasons Hotel was at the entrance of Wilshire Boulevard, and it didn't take long to walk back. When Evan Bell returned to the hotel, he saw David Greenblatt sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face in the lobby. At least half an hour had passed since the phone call just now, but looking at David Greenblatt's expression, he did not calm down, but became more angry because of the long wait.

After seeing Evan Bell appear, David Greenblatt stood up directly and walked towards the elevator angrily. Evan Bell was about to say hello, but before he could speak, he saw David Greenblatt leave his back to himself. In desperation, Evan Bell could only shrug and follow.

Evan Bell just took a few steps forward, and saw that David Greenblatt didn't wait for him, and directly closed the elevator and went up. Evan Bell stood there a little dumbfounded, he knew what was going on, and David Greenblatt was dissatisfied with the increase in pay for the entire cast of "NCIS", which is normal. But Evan Bell didn't think that David Greenblatt needed to be so angry. Judging from his state, he could be said to be furious, so Evan Bell's good mood was also destroyed, and his brows involuntarily gathered in the middle.

After taking the elevator upstairs, he saw David Greenblatt waiting gloomily at the door of the room. Evan Bell stepped forward, opened the door of the room, and walked in first. David Greenblatt then came in and slammed the door shut.

David Greenblatt walked into the room and saw Evan Bell who was making tea without anyone else, David Greenblatt's emotions suddenly found a catharsis point, "Did you know that you did a tea today? What a stupid and self-willed thing, have you ever seriously thought about the importance of things, and when will your self-willed and reckless actions become more rational?"

Evan Bell casts one glance at David Greenblatt, who is also angry now. I remember the last time David Greenblatt got angry because he refused to go to the Oscars, he decided to go to a Broadway show, and he turned down a lot of script opportunities, and Evan Bell said to him at that time, "I'll explain it to you again. , only once." Evan Bell is a man of his own accord, but he is not a brain-stuffed, ignorant person. He has his own rules for doing things.

David Greenblatt disagreed with himself again and again, but Evan Bell was not angry, because he knew that David Greenblatt was just performing the duties of an agent. But the two have been together for more than two years now, and if David Greenblatt still doesn't understand Evan Bell's behavior, he doesn't feel the need to continue explaining. So, he doesn't want to explain today, he doesn't want to argue with David Greenblatt in his anger.

"Don't think that you are arrogant if you have achieved a little result. When you pay actors at this time, you are the only one in the entire TV drama circle who would make such a stupid move. Do you know what it means to pay actors now? It means that the actor's taste will become bigger, it means that the budget is oversized, it means that we will not be able to speak forcefully when negotiating with the actors in the future, it means that our relationship with cbs will be deadlocked, it means that the contracts we signed will no longer count, which means that Every project after our studio will inevitably be affected, which means that the actor negotiation work of 'Doctor House' must adjust its strategy... Evan Bell, you are only entering the third year of the entertainment industry, and you are running on this circle. The rules are just to understand the skin. Don't think how smart and wise you are. You can get to where you are today. In addition to strength, it is more luck. Once luck is no longer with you, what awaits you is to fall to the bottom. Increase Pay, how easy it is to say, but do you know how many links are involved? Do you know how much it affects the entire studio? Your arrogance will only bring disaster.”

David Greenblatt is like a raging lion, venting all the anger in his heart.

Evan Bell ignored him. In fact, if he was to roar with David Greenblatt, he would definitely not fall behind. Maybe his understanding of the entertainment industry is not as deep as that of David Greenblatt, but he has enough understanding of the future development, and his perspective is different from that of an agent. He is more from the standpoint of an actor. Eleven The studio's position to consider the problem.

Today, Evan Bell will raise the issue of raising the salary of all the actors of the "Naval Criminal Investigation Service".

By the time the first season aired in May, the "Naval Criminal Investigative Service" had excellent ratings. Even though Studio Eleven still has a one-year contract with the actors, it would be almost impossible not to raise their salaries. possible. Because any TV station will be jealous of the "Navy Criminal Investigation Service", it is inevitable for Eleven Studio to increase the salaries of the actors, otherwise the relationship between the actors and Eleven Studio will be frozen, and the studio can only be bound by contracts. After the actors were filmed for another year, and then everyone broke up, it was estimated that the show would be over.

So, instead of waiting until May to passively discuss the issue of remuneration, why not take the initiative to raise the remuneration of the actors now, after all, the performance of this drama in the past six months is obvious to all, and raising the remuneration is a normal thing.

Furthermore, the actors are currently in a cooperative relationship with Eleven Studios, and they are also involved in the relationship with CBS TV. In front of cbs TV station, Eleven Studio is at a disadvantage. The studio's only reliance is the excellent ratings of the "Navy Criminal Investigation Service", but only relying on the excellent ratings, the studio has no way to spend on advertising revenue and costs. etc. bargain with cbs. Therefore, the studio must stand on the same front as the actor, so as to increase the bargaining chip with the cbs.

This time, the initiative to increase the actors' remuneration is not only an affirmation of the actors' excellent performance, but also an opportunity to shorten the relationship between the studio and the actors. If we talk about remuneration in May, because of the excellent results at the end of the first season, the actors' requirements for remuneration are bound to be higher. Now, Eleven Studio's initiative to increase the remuneration is itself a sign of goodwill. If Evan Bell takes the initiative to raise the remuneration to the level expected by the actors in May, this is the second sign of goodwill. For the actors, it is undoubtedly a move.

"NCIS" itself is a TV series full of warmth, and it is a good thing for the crew to have more human touches. While considering the interests, it is not a big problem for Studio Eleven to give in a little to the extent that can be allowed. .

As for the issue of the level of remuneration, everything can be negotiated now. After all, this also requires the participation of cbs. Even if Evan Bell wanted to pay whatever he wanted, CBS would not agree. Besides, has Evan Bell never been a desperate person? Although he does whatever he wants, he is not without a brain. Just look at the investment of "Mysterious Skin" only has an investment of 300,000 yuan, which makes it impossible to see that this is a work prepared by the head of Eleven Studio.

In fact, all of this, as long as David Greenblatt calms down a little and thinks about it, he will understand. However, when David Greenblatt heard the news of Sean Bonan, he was instantly swept away by anger. Moreover, judging from the actions of Evan Bell in the past, he is indeed a person full of personality. The conflict of ideas between David Greenblatt and Evan Bell is not a day or two, so today he took it for granted that it broke out completely. When he came out, he didn't even want to think deeply about it, so he got angry with Evan Bell.

"Evan Bell, are you saying something?" David Greenblatt roared at Evan Bell.

Evan Bell glanced at David Greenblatt, "You have already made a judgment, you are not even willing to think deeply about this matter, so do you think I need to defend? Or, I Can you hear your defense?"

David Greenblatt was choked directly by Evan Bell.
