Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Santa Monica, Cheyenne Enterprise Headquarters, Ye Wei looked at this small three-story office building and strode inside.

    Although this is a small production company, it has complete departments and has the vitality of a new company that has been in operation for more than three years. It has not been affected by the poor performance of the past few films.

    After Ye Wei entered, he was taken to the production conference room on the second floor by the front desk lady. He was the earliest person to arrive, and there was still half an hour before the meeting time of 9:00.

    The conference room is very spacious and bright, with a long conference table in the middle. There is a large LCD TV hanging on the wall in front, and there are DVD projectors and other equipment below. There are some movie posters on the walls on both sides, all of which are produced by Cheyenne Enterprises.  movies, such as "The Perfect Thief" and "Hart's War", etc., at a glance, there are a lot of Willis.

    "Hey, wait!" Ye Wei stopped the front desk lady who was about to leave, smiled, and asked, "Do you know who is coming to the meeting today?"

    The lady at the front desk didn¡¯t know who he was or what kind of meeting this was. She was surprised because of his age. She was even more confused when she heard this. He didn¡¯t know?  She said apologetically: "I only know that Mr. Willis and the others will come, and someone from Focus Film will also come."

    "OK, thank you." Ye Wei nodded, it was still a three-party meeting.

    While there was still time, he checked what he had brought in his suitcase: the DVD of "Dance of Angels" and copies of all original materials, his latest school transcripts for various subjects, the "genius certificate" issued by the old principal,  Some status documents from Dream Chaser Alliance, the script of "Little Miss Sunshine" and a script production analysis of his own, the original script and remake script of "Wedding Day is Coming". He did not expect that this meeting would come so quickly.  There is no time to complete the plate making, so this is the only way, and there are some other items that are needed in case of emergency

    He reviewed his lobbying strategy again. Maybe this conference table would be full of people, but the final decision of YES or NO would still be Willis¡¯s voice!

    Because film creation pays attention to status and power, when a dispute arises, it is impossible to use democratic voting to determine the result. Everyone can disagree, as long as the biggest person agrees.

    So the strategy is, capture the thief first and capture the king first!  Convince Willis, break other people's negative influence on him, strengthen his determination, and then it's a done deal!

    Gradually, the time is approaching 9:00, and no big shot has appeared yet.  For big shots in the film industry, being late is the most normal thing. Some superstars have a "lateness rate" of even 100%.

    It¡¯s not surprising that the two people in Focus Movies arrived earlier than Willis and others, Robert Harmon and Gale Wilson!

    The director and manager of the Focus Production Department, they were all in suits, had their hair done, and sprayed perfume to cover up their odor. They each carried a briefcase, with smiles on their faces, trying to pretend to be gentle people. They put on sunglasses to go  Acting in "Men in Black", the despicable version!

    "Two damn despicable people!"  Ye Wei cursed a few times in his mind, but did not leave the office chair at all. He just looked at them lazily and said: "When our transaction was successful last year, I really didn't expect to meet here again, didn't you? You didn't even think about it.  I thought Mr. Willis would be interested in Little Miss Sunshine.¡±

    "Haha." Gale, still pretending to be a good person, sat down and said, "Weige, you have really done a lot of great things."

    And Harmon continued to behave like a bad cop. He didn¡¯t say much, and just said coldly: ¡°We are not here to quarrel.¡±

    Save it!  Ye Wei snorted, but he was worried about Willis's "That's good." The big shot obviously told him not to act out of emotion. The key is that everyone has achieved satisfactory benefits.

    He said in a calm tone: "You know what you have done. There is no need to do this again. You can't even deceive a three-year-old child. Do you understand? If you really want to put aside your grudges and achieve mutual benefit, please be honest."  , two bitches.¡±

    Harmon and Gale¡¯s expressions suddenly changed, with anger hidden in their eyes. This kid really doesn¡¯t know who he is!

    "Kid, please check your conscience. Are the conditions we offer you bad?" Gale tapped the conference table, but his voice was very serious: "The repurchase price is 800,000, if you agree now, it can be 1 million."  ! And the title of assistant producer, what else do you want? "

    "I won't sell it for 100 million, and I won't sell it if it is torn into pieces." Ye Wei only responded and ignored them.

    The two of them did not stop, especially Gale, who became more and more excited as he spoke, and was obviously provocative: "We have also watched your short film. For a middle school student, it is indeed good, but what does that mean? The movie is not a short film, and you are not naive.  Do you think a 15-year-old kid can make a good movie? I tell you, you are absolutely crazy!¡±

    Ye Wei suppressed the urge to speak, don't be fooled, this is the other party's despicable strategy!  Before Willis and the others arrived,? It would be better to provoke him as much as possible, make him lose his mind, lower his level of lobbying, or even do something out of control and beat someone up. Then there is no need to hold today's meeting again.

    ¡°Then he had to cry and beg them to offer another 1 million to buy the script, but they were only willing to offer 600,000a dream!

    In order to distract himself, Ye Wei took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Lily: "I'm in the conference room now. The big shots haven't come yet, so I'm nervous."

    Lily over there seemed to be waiting, and she replied after a while: "Wei, as long as you show your strength, no one can stop you! I believe you can do it, come on!"

    "Yes, no one can!" Ye Wei looked at the phone screen and smiled happily, which stunned Gale who was spitting on the opposite side. Ye Wei shrugged and said, "Go on." He looked at the phone again, Lily said today  I'll board the plane and fly back in the morning, and I'll see her in the afternoon. I haven't seen her for almost two weeks.

    Lily seemed to think so too, and sent another text message: "Regardless of success or failure, let's go out for a big dinner together tonight!"

    "Okay! Which restaurant, Santa Monica or West Hollywood?" Ye Wei replied.

    "I just returned from New York, shouldn't you be the one to invite me?"

    ¡°OK, if I succeed, I¡¯ll go to Santa Monica, if I fail¡­ I won¡¯t fail!¡±

    Ye Wei was chatting with Lily, and then flipped through the text messages sent by other brothers and friends. Seeing these blessings and encouragements, he felt full of strength, come on VIY!  Everyone is looking forward to making their dreams come true!

    After a while, it was 9:15 on the clock. Finally, the conference room door was opened and the big shots arrived!

    "You guys are here so early. You've been waiting for a long time." Willis walked in front, raising his nasolabial folds slightly and smiling lightly. Behind him was a team of five or six people.

    Ye Wei immediately put away his phone, stood up, and greeted with a smile, "Gentlemen, nice to see you."

    "Mr. Willis." The two people in focus also stood up, smiling and respectful.

    At this moment, everyone got to know each other, and Ye Wei knew who his opponents or helpers were.

    Richard Lovett, a middle-aged white man wearing round glasses, a big-name CAA agent, has a kind face and gentle eyes, and looks like a high school teacher.

    At the same time, Lovett, who shook hands with Ye Wei, was really surprised. A complete teenager, it was he who caused such a big storm?  That short film and this meeting should not have happened. The more I think about it, the more incredible the whole thing becomes.

    Ye Wei noticed the opponent's subtle expression and secretly drew an X in his heart, opponent.

    Arnold Rifkin, a tall, long-faced, middle-aged white man with a somewhat bald forehead and a broad chin, looks like the lover of a middle-aged housewife.  Willis's old friend and Cheyenne business partner.  He was smiling too, but the handshake was less enthusiastic than the words "I don't believe you" written on his bald forehead.

    Ye Wei gave him another X, his opponent.

    Then there are three guys from the marketing department, the production and development department, and a secretary. None of them are big shots, so their attitudes are ordinary and they can be considered neutral.

    However, there is a huge figure behind him, Paul Bloch!

    Seeing him, Ye Wei couldn't help but be surprised. This bald, fat, elderly white man is the co-chairman of the famous national public relations company "Rogers and Cowan". He is Willis's public relations spokesman and also John's public relations spokesman.  - Spokespersons for many superstars such as Travolta, Stallone, and the Beckhams manage their public images, resolve various crises for them, speak for them, and even make some decisions. They have great influence.

    "Haha, hello, young man." Bloch is like a kind old oriental monk. He is still wearing a loose white Tang suit today. He is full of happiness and smiles so that it is difficult to see through his thoughts.

    I really didn¡¯t expect him to come too. This meeting was quite grand Although I can¡¯t tell Bloch¡¯s camp clearly, what¡¯s the purpose of his visit?

    Ye Wei took his seat and quickly analyzed, are there any concerns about public relations?  Thinking about it this way, if Willis joined a film directed by a teenager, what would the outside world think?  Not everyone has seen "Dance of Angels" and trusted him

    He felt a little nervous, and all the preparations he had made had lacked public relations considerations. He couldn't be put off by this old monk

    In a blink of an eye, everyone sat down. Ye Wei sat under the conference table. The Willis team was on his right, the focus team was on the left, and Willis was on top. A meeting began!

    What he didn¡¯t expect was that Bloch was the one who spoke at the beginning.

    The fat face smiled and said: "I believe everyone knows what is going on on the table now. But, do you want this projectYou will produce and direct the project, so have you ever thought about how the media and the public will evaluate this?  What impact will this have on Bruce's image?  "

    Everyone¡¯s eyes were looking at Ye Wei. The young man kept a confident smile. Only he knew that cold sweat was breaking out on his back.
