Kapoor · Sid agreed, and the two sides began to discuss the acquisition plan. In Eric's opinion, the most valuable Sid Brokerage Firm is only Kapoor · Sid himself.

Although Kapoor is not one of the caa founding five-member team, its ability is not much worse than them. The remaining seven or eight managers in the company and more than twenty non-influential Actors are basically of little value, at least before the Eric acquisition.

Sid Brokerage Firm is not without the first-class Actor, but because of Michael · Ovitz, several well-known Actor insisted on leaving after a period of time. The last thing left is really because there is no better way out. After all, Kapoor is still very capable. Although the Actor is difficult to get under the shadow of caa, it can always stand in some independent movies or Received the role in TV series.

"Eric, 1 million USD, I find it difficult to accept ..." Kapoor is somewhat dissatisfied with the Eric's asking price. When he was caa, his annual salary was more than 1 million USD.

Eric did not panic and said: "Kapoor, your Brokerage Firm is only valuable to those more than twenty Actor brokerage contracts, which does not make much sense to me. If I want to, the level of Actor I can always Hundreds were found. "

Kapoor retorted: "Eric, they are all excellent Actor, after doing so many years manager, my vision is definitely not bad, they just lack opportunities."

"All the Actor struggling at the bottom of Hollywood are just lacking opportunities, Kapoor, then 1 million can be said to be entirely my own for you, and it also leaves you with a 10% stake, I believe you will find it in a few years I have taken advantage of myself. As for them, all I can give is the opportunity they dream of. "

Kapoor knew that Eric was telling the truth, sighed, and nodded slightly.

Since it has been negotiated, the two parties signed a contract soon, and Brokerage Firm changed the owner. The name must be changed. Eric used the name 'Joint Elite Brokerage Firm', abbreviated as uta, that is, previous life and caa, wma It is one of the Hollywood 5 Great Brokerage Firms divisions of other giants, but the uta of previous life was only established in 1991.

After being busy with these things, it was already noon. After lunch, Eric followed Kapoor · Sid to Sid Brokerage Firm's office location in Burbank. Kapoor · Sid only rented a few offices here, which seemed shabby.

But this time the office is full of people, and they also know that today is a special day for this Brokerage Firm.

When Eric saw these manager and Actor, they suddenly thought of a problem, but nodded to everyone, and pulled Jeffrey and Kapoor into a separate office, asking: "Kapoor, now you Brokerage Firm What's the draw? "

"Six percent."

"So little?" Eric was a little surprised: "Isn't it ten percent?"

Jeffrey socket said: "Eric, you said it was a long time ago."

Kapoor also explained: "Since ... caa broke this convention for competition, the share of Brokerage Firm is getting lower and lower. Especially for our small Brokerage Firms, it is impossible to receive a 10% share. Now There are only two of them, caa and wma. After the rise of caa, in addition to the low-cost of big-name stars, the second- and third-rate small stars have returned to 10%. . "

Eric thought about it for a moment, and said: "Modify the agreement, increase the winnings to 10%."

"Eric, is this something wrong?" Kapoor hasn't answered yet, Jeffrey can't help but object.

Eric explained: "If you do n’t modify it now, when Brokerage Firm develops, it will have a greater impact if you improve it, so ... who will announce it?"

Jeffrey and Kapoor glanced at each other and turned their eyes to Eric.

"Uh, well, I will do this bad guy."

......

"Without my introduction, everyone must know who I am. Now I officially announce to be the new owner of this Brokerage Firm, and the company is renamed uta. My next movie will be turned on after the New Year, as long as you have the right image and pass The audition will give priority to the characters in the film. As everyone knows in "Home Alone", the people who were originally unknown Stewart · Rankell and Matthew · Perry have now become hot stars, and some others can only play TV series. 'S supporting role also successfully entered the big screen because he participated in "Home Alone". "

Seeing the unabashed rejoicing in the expressions in front of everyone, Eric knew that there was enough foreshadowing, and then the words turned, saying: "But, I am a capitalist, not a philanthropist. I give you opportunities that were difficult to obtain in the past You also need to receive a return. Therefore, the original company ’s Actor contract needs to be revised and the winnings increased to 10%. If someone finds it difficult to accept, they can choose to leave the contract. "

Eric turned around and returned to the office again, giving everyone some time to consider. He believed that as long as these people had a normal IQ, they would not choose to leave at this time.

In the office, Jeffrey and Kapoor are already discussing the preparations for 《Pretty Woman》.

"Eric, Jeffrey said you want to invite Sophie · Marceau to do Heroine?" Kapoor asked.

Eric nodded: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Kapoor said: "If you want to start shooting after the New Year, I would advise you to change people. Because I was going to Europe development, this time I am very concerned about the news there, Sophie · Marceau is in shoots The new Żuławski movie, with the progress of the Andre shoots movie, even if your 《Pretty Woman》 is released, he may not be able to kill. "

Eric recalled that in terms of time, Sophie estimated that shoots was nicknamed 《My Nights Are More Beautiful Than Your Days》 by some audiences as alien movies. The name is beautiful, but the content is somewhat unknown, but it is indeed the consistent style of Żuławski.

"Then use Julia · Roberts, Kapoor, I hope you can make Julia's manager yourself."

Jeffrey once again persuaded: "Eric, you should know that you ca n’t fail this movie. Now many people are waiting to see your jokes, so still ..."

"Jeffrey, I know what you mean, but," Eric smiled and said: "Did you not read those newspaper? Do you know the reputation of my first two movies, even if the new movie is made into a swell?" Shit, you can make money. So, as long as the quality of the movie is no problem, it is difficult to fail, so why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to sell our own actress? "

"What if the Julia · Roberts is not good?"

Eric smile with a strange ambiguity: "Relax, I will personally teach her."

......

Unsurprisingly, as expected by Eric, none of the Actor of Brokerage Firm chose to leave, and they all accepted the new contract proposal proposed by Eric.

After finishing these things, Eric is planning to drive home, Jeffrey came up and sat on the co-pilot: "Eric, my car is being sent for maintenance, will you send me a ride?"

"No problem."

Driving on the road, Jeffrey asked with concern: "Eric, what's going on with you ... Drew, I said today on newspaper that she went to you again yesterday, as if her mother Ildiko also went to your house ? "

Eric did not conceal Jeffrey, and said in detail what happened yesterday.

"This is ... well, Drew is a talented Actor, but, do you want her to live in your house all the time? You have nothing to do with her, and this has been coupled with the hype of the media Even if Drew ’s mother does n’t bother you, the Child Protection Association will come forward. Drew is only 13 years old after all. ”

"Relax, I know this too. I already plan to send Drew to boarding school."

"That's fine," Jeffrey nodded: "Eric, you don't really have ... Lolita complex?"

The car, which is moving steadily, suddenly slowed down, and the next Chevrolet was a bit closer. The Eric was almost behind the other side, ignoring the traffic on the road, the white Fatty in the Chevrolet protruded from the window. The head started scolding.

Eric stabilizes the mind and manipulates the steering wheel to shake off the back Chevrolet: "Jeffrey, you see Drew except for age, is that like Lolita?"

That is obviously a goblin, a little fox who has been practicing for at least five hundred years.

"In short, you should pay attention to your own size." Jeffrey seems to have identified the Lolita tendency of Eric.
