~： Four hundred and sixty - are you sure he has this habit? !

"Haney, doesn't that girl look particularly hot?"

Looking in the direction of Wayne's gaze, it wasn't just Nina, Naomi Watts also found a woman not far away.

"The car is here, let's go."

Wayne, who was thick-skinned enough, skipped the topic directly, took the lead and walked towards the tram that Sergey drove, shook his head, and threw the shadow of the woman just now.

Here they just got on the tram and drove towards the entrance of the studio. Two people not far from the studio also found their figures at the same time.

The agent dressed in a well-fitting suit suddenly whistled, looked at the beautiful woman beside him, and said, "If you read it right, it's Wayne Greenberg, Monica, it's easy to stay in Hollywood, Finding a chance to get to know him is a very useful shortcut."

When Monica Bellucci heard the manager's ridicule, she stared at the back of the quickly leaving tram, as if she was seriously considering the shortcut the manager said, and then shook her head again, it was too difficult to get close to the other party.

"Just to remind you, Monica."

The agent seemed to suddenly remember something, put away the other expressions on his face, and said seriously. "We are currently auditioning for The Matrix. Wayne Greenberg is not only one of the producers and screenwriters, he is also an investor in the film, more precisely, he is one of the bosses and can easily decide many It's a very difficult thing for us!"

Both of them understand that this is Hollywood, not Italy. If you want to stay, you will have to work harder. Even if Monica Bellucci already has a lot of fame, it is also useless to put it here. For example, if you want to join the "Matrix" crew, you still have to audition like a newcomer.

This is the second time for Monica Bellucci to come to Hollywood. Of course, she is not willing to leave this world film factory. There are more opportunities here, but it also means that the competition is more intense. Beautiful girls all over the world are constantly running to the City of Angels to pursue their dreams, but only a small part of them can survive in this center of fame and fortune.

"Ellen, I need you to help me create an opportunity."

One last glance at the vanishing tram, Monica Bellucci looked back into the agent's eyes and said, "A chance to meet Wayne Greenberg, at least for the audition we're attending. , would be of great help, wouldn't it?"

"It's not impossible..."

Agent Alan Wilson folded his arms over his chest and stroked his chin with one hand, slowly considering the feasibility of things. "I haven't heard of any Warner Bros. events that he will participate in recently, but if you want to get to know him, you must get to know him as soon as possible. The crew of "The Dark Knight" may fly to New York at any time to start filming."

"What should I do?"

Monica Bellucci frowned. "Do you want me to just walk up to him and say, hey, Mr. Greenberg, I need you to help me get a role, can you say hello to Zack Snyder!?"

"It's not impossible to do so..."

The agent rolled his eyes, feeling that he was trying his best to get close to the other party, it would be better to just walk over and say hello. He didn't want to know what his client would pay in exchange for the promise.

According to the rumors in the circle, Wayne Greenberg almost always welcomes attractive beauties, as long as you are beautiful enough, I heard that this man's aesthetics are different from those of the public. It may not be impossible to start with this.

Suddenly, he remembered some previous reports and said hesitantly: "Monica, I have heard some rumors, if you are willing to try it, maybe you can..."

As his voice gradually lowered, some gossip about women began to enter Monica Bellucci's ears.

"Are you sure he has this habit?"

"Maybe, who knows?"

The agent shrugged. "At least it's rumored in the circle, Monica. Facts often prove at the end that 90% of the rumors in the circle are true."

"I understand."

Wayne, who left, didn't know that the beautiful woman he had been observing just now was also making up his mind. At this moment, the fast-moving car was heading towards Beverly.

The large carriage behind the Rolls-Royce Phantom provided very convenient conditions for working on the way. At this time, Nina was on the table in the middle, fiddling with some information, constantly pointing to her boss and explaining it.

"The current North American box office of The Departed is 156 million US dollars. The part that the Cinema Alliance split to Warner Bros. is the box office share of the previous month. Divide the account several times and divide the account within the time stipulated in the contract. There are still some overseas parts..."

While listening to the assistant's explanation, Wayne nodded slowly. The share of overseas box office has not been obtained in a short period of time. Because information communication is not as fast as it has been after more than ten years, from statistics to calculations, it is a complicated work.

Moreover, there are still many differences in the share ratio of each region, and the problems involved will cause a headache to normal people when they hear it. .

Not to mention the share of the overseas box office, even if it is the North American box office share, it is also an extremely complicated and difficult to calculate work. If the distribution company wants to make some tricks in it, as long as they want to, there is almost no way to check it out.

Fortunately, because there are only two main investors in "The Departed", and he has never relaxed it, Warner Bros. is unlikely to cheat him on the supervision of accounting issues. The problems to be faced in this regard are relatively simple. . The theater company has put the $65 million from the first split into the account of Warner Bros. responsible for publishing "The Departed". It seems that this amount of money is not a lot, but this money is not the investor's final income. , Hollywood has perfect rules, and everything will share this profit according to the rules.

The first thing to do is distribution. The distribution department of Warner Bros. will give priority to deducting 15% of the lowest standard distribution fee in the circle, which is about 9.75 million US dollars. Then, after deducting the publicity funds advanced in the early stage, it is about 19 million US dollars.

At this point, Warner Bros. has actually taken a small half of the first share of the funds, but the subsequent share of the theater chain will not involve the distribution, promotion and public relations of the advance payment, and the distribution company will always be in the industry. This is why the upstream chain is always invincible.

$65 million, after deducting the $28.75 million that Warner Bros. first took away, the remaining $36.25 million is the gross profit shared by the producers this time.

According to the normal process, the remaining 36.25 million US dollars will be entered into the studio jointly established by the two parties after the accountants of both parties have checked it correctly, but this money is not considered as the income of the investors.

It should be noted that the final payment of some members of the crew will also be involved. It can be said that there is not much in this regard, but Wayne's personal box office share is the largest, because the contract he signed at the beginning stipulated that 20% of the global box office , based on the $65 million divided in the first time, he will also take away $13 million of it.

After that, the remaining $23.25 million is regarded as the income of both parties involved in the investment in the film. It seems that this amount of money is not much, but in fact this is still under the condition that Warner Bros. Of course, the calculation rules are not so simple, and all aspects of the problems involved are just a rough process.

In the future, the box office splits recovered by Warner Bros. will probably follow the same process, except that there is no need to deduct the advance payment expenses.

Therefore, Hollywood's box office profits have always been decreasing as a proportion of total profits over time. In fact, the bulk of the profit is the peripheral sales, and the omni-channel copyright operation, trading, and the necessary video tape rental trading after the movie is downgraded.

The cost of the above-mentioned profit-making channels is very low, and almost all that can be obtained are pure profits. If the box office profit figures are compared with one of them, it is actually nothing.

Wayne is very clear, how much money this film can make in the end depends on how much it gets at the Oscars. If everything goes well, if you can get more than one golden statue with a relatively heavy weight, both the Cinema Alliance and Warner Bros. will definitely It will make the film return to the theater again, and make a lot of money through the marketing effect of Oscar.

With the bonus of the Oscar statuette, it also has a huge bonus effect on the copyright transaction after the film is completely downgraded. For example, the first round of TV premiere rights and the second round of TV premiere rights will have a significant increase in price.

"Haney, you said, if the video tape market goes down one day, will the production company continue to invest heavily in filming like it does now?"

Listening to Nina's constant explanation of the process of dividing the spoils to Wayne, Naomi Watts suddenly thought of this question. As we all know, the production companies are constantly increasing the production cost. In the past two years, it has even been in units of 100 million. Among them, the biggest confidence to them is the terrifying videotape market.

Blockbuster's stores have also been expanding rapidly in North America in recent years, and the profits generated are far higher than the box office profits of a blockbuster movie.

"Nami, don't worry, the production company's investment in the film will only increase in the future."

For this matter, Wayne is not worried at all. Video tapes will indeed be eliminated by the times, but DVDs, which are cheaper and almost negligible, will replace video tapes and surpass video tapes as a communication medium, saving the marketing volume of Hollywood film companies again.

Before the advent of streaming media, DVD has always been the largest profit for all companies, completely surpassing the current video tape, which brings in the proportion of revenue.

"Streaming, Streaming, Groove, Chennai..."

"What's the matter? Darling?"

Hearing Wayne's muttering gradually sinking, and then his whole body tense immediately, Naomi Watts and Nina looked at him in surprise.

"F**k! Nami, I'm sure now, you are my destiny's lucky star!"

Under the surprised eyes of the two women, Wayne pulled the Australian actress into his arms and gave her a fierce kiss on the cheek.
