Chapter 110： increased portion

?caa's office floor was brightly lit, and although it was already seven o'clock in the evening, it was already time to get off work.

But Johnson was still busy in the office and did not leave.

"Hey, buddy, I'm going to get off work, do you want to go home together?" The person who spoke was named Sith, who was also an agent of caa. The two rented a place not far apart, and the return journey was easy.

There are not a few people in this world who work hard, and the Sith are also the kind of people who are willing to work hard in their careers. The two have similar personalities and usually have a good relationship.

"No, I have something to do, you go back first." Even so, Johnson chose to decline.

"Look, you've been really busy lately. Drink this every day." He pointed to another cup of brewed coffee and said, "It's not good for sleep."

"No way, even if you go to bed later, you can't slack off at work." Johnson said with a wry smile and spread his hands.

An agent in the back also noticed the two, turned around, and interjected, "Johnson is different from us now, he's a busy man."

Why does this sound so sour.

Johnson smiled and ignored it.

Although it is stated in the code of entry for employees that everyone is equal in the company, in real terms, they are brokers who do not have a high status.

Really flat management methods can only be thought about, how can it be achieved? In caa, new people and those with certain qualifications, although they are all 4 people in a separate public office, but their status will be different. For example, he and the Sith are a little better than this one who can bb. Both of them have talent resources that are producing achievements. Naturally, both in terms of salary and confidence in speaking, they are better than those managers who do not have good talent resources.

Speeches and opportunities can also get feedback from the management. After all, he is already a middle-level force.

One step further is the senior broker, and even the partner status of caa.

"Okay, you're busy, I'll go first."

"Goodbye." Johnson greeted politely.

As soon as he finished speaking, a colleague pushed open the door of the office from outside, "Johnson, Mr. Brian is looking for you."

Under the envious eyes of his colleagues, Johnson got up and left the office.

"He's really handsome now." The colleague who just said sour words made no secret of his jealousy, "If only I signed director Lehman, it's a pity."

After he finished speaking, he shook his head and turned around.

Sith, who has not left yet, is actually somewhat envious. In the past, his voice was definitely the loudest in this office, but now, it seems that the situation has changed.

However, he didn't sink into this bad mood all the time, he flashed it a little, and immediately strengthened his belief that the opportunities were all won by himself, and it was his fault that he didn't go all out in the first place.

At the beginning, Lehman and Kevin Howian had a preliminary negotiation, but they said who would bring it. Everyone in their office had a chance to compete, but in the end, Johnson was more determined.

After all, with such harsh service conditions, there is no right to claim without authorization, and they are really not seen by these caa middle-level brokers.

The remuneration of each of them is not low. In a capitalist society like the United States, they can be considered to have a foothold. Of course, they will think about standing up and earning money while keeping their backs straighter.

But now, maybe I still regret it.

It's not just Hollywood actors and directors who need opportunities, but their agents as well.

Who doesn't want to climb up and climb to the top of the industry.

Looking at Johnson, who was tired but gradually getting high spirits recently, Sith shook his head and left the caa headquarters building.

The path is chosen by oneself, there is nothing to say.

On the other side, Johnson walked quickly to Brian Lord's office, knocked on the door twice, and then pushed the door and walked in. 35xs

"Mr. Bryan," he said, standing at the desk, "Is there anything you want to do with me?"

"Just now, the box office statistics and the audience's word of mouth from the survey before 6 o'clock came out." Brian Lord's bald head seemed to be brighter than before, he said with a smile, "Look at it."

With that said, he handed Johnson a sorted document.

Johnson took it and glanced at it quickly, his face getting brighter.

2,700 theaters opened, and "Fury" won $6.75 million. If you add the statistics of night shows, it should not be difficult to 7 million.

As for the audience's word of mouth, the survey company hired randomly consulted 4,223 audiences, of which the a rating rate was 82%, the rating rate above a was 90%, and the rating rate below c was less than 1%.

These data are enough to show that the word of mouth of the premiere of "Fury" is very good, and the box office is also right on this word of mouth.

"Lyman did not disappoint us."

Brian Lord asked, "What has he been up to lately?"

"I didn't do anything, and I didn't see him have a new movie plan."

Brian Lord shook his bald head, pondered for a while, and said, "On director Lyman's business"

He looked at Johnson. "You did a good job."

Johnson had a smile on his face, but he said restrainedly, "His own potential is too outstanding."

Brian Lord did not answer him, but said, "There is an office on the fifth floor of the company building, you can pack your things and move in. Also, most of the company's existing resources and network, you can also appropriate use."

It is true that in caa, there is no such thing as a promotion for an agent, but after hearing this, Johnson understood that his company's status must be improved by a substantial amount.

His huge investment in Lyman is starting to pay off.

With his hands resting on the table, Brian Lord saw that his orders were over, and he casually mentioned that Johnson should take care of Lehman's entertainer services, and then waved his hands to let him go out of the office.

At the same time, Shirley Lansing got similar statistics for the "Fury" movie at the headquarters of Paramount Pictures in Hollywood.

These survey data are not secret at all, and major film studios can easily get them for a fee.

After reading the entire market feedback, Shirley Lansing slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She is now under increasing pressure within the company.

Those competitors are all coveting her position, and it is inevitable that they will bear certain joint and several responsibilities after spending so much resources on Lehman's new works.

If it fails, her situation will definitely be worse.

However, in life, there is no if.

"Fury" brought far more than expected premiere reputation and market box office, even if it does not fully represent the trend of a film's performance, but it is still based on the overall.

Shirley Lansing's mood suddenly improved, and she once again proved her vision and blocked the mouths of those people.

"Call Charlie, the marketing director, over here." Shirley Lansing picked up the landline in the office and called.

After a while, Charlie came over.

"The statistics of the movie, have you seen it?"

"Look." Charlie, a middle-aged white man with a slightly bald head, was sitting on an office chair and suggested quite earnestly, "I think the 2,700 theaters we won in the first week are a bit conservative, "Fury" The market potential has not been fully released, do you want to convince the theater chain to add more screens?"

"I also understand that it's a little bit lacking, but Charlie, there's no way around it." Shirley Lansing shook her head, "The entire North American market is so big, so many competitors have to participate in the Christmas season, the theater chain It's also very difficult to arrange. Like we were on the same issue as MGM Home Entertainment, they and we both put huge resources into the operation of the film, and there are only so many screens, and with them in it, we can't be anymore. Get more than 3,000 theaters as usual."

"Yes, but they don't even think about getting a screening scale of more than 3,000 theaters."

Shirley Lansing smiled and did not speak, which is a fact of course.

Competition in Hollywood is ubiquitous, from script to actors to directors to the theaters and filming teams behind it, all of which are battlefields that film companies need to fight and **** for them So many years have passed, early It's familiar.

"What about "007 Die Another Day"? How about the results?" Shirley Lansing thought of her only competitor in the past two weeks.

"2,732 theaters received $8.26 million." Charlie leaned back in his chair and continued, "It's quite in line with the first-day data of the 007 series."

Shirley Lansing nodded and expressed her understanding. After all, the fan base is there. If you can't do "Fury" in the first week, it will only become more and more hopeless in the future. This is also a common problem with the main fan series, that is, the first week. A comparison of the box office and the box office of the next week is mostly inverse growth.

"However, their word of mouth is not good." Charlie continued. "According to the feedback from the survey company, they have a score of 75, and Fury has a score of 86."

"Don't talk about it." Shirley Lansing shook her head. "These data are too fictitious. Every year, the internal evaluation of market analysis makes a joke. What I want to hear is the evaluation of the audience."

""007 Die Another Day" recovered 4,632 questionnaires from viewers, with a rating rate of 78%, a rating rate of 82% above, and a rating rate of 2% below c." Charlie published his own "The phenomenon of fans on the first day is too serious. After a few days, their ratings are estimated to be diving."

"Well, continue to pay attention, we have to keep abreast of this information." Shirley Lansing said in a deep voice.

Next, the two discussed some other corporate matters.

But in the case of "Fury"'s good results, it is always this side that attracts everyone's attention.
