"Our previous guesses were all misunderstood!" Helen Herman, leaning on a cue, stood in front of the billiards in the recreation room and said to Matthew, who had just arrived, "Jerry Bruckheimer took the screenwriter to the United States. The National Archives looked it up and it was indeed about independence, but his new film is not about American independence, but an action-adventure film about the Declaration of Independence!"

Matthew originally picked up the club and was about to have a fight with Helen Herman. Hearing this, he stood at the table without moving, and cursed in his heart a **** that began with "F".

He and Helen Herman always thought that Jerry Bruckheimer's new film had something to do with American Independence or Independence Day, and they didn't think about the "Declaration of Independence" at all!

Helen Herman shook his head gently, "Jerry Bruckheimer went to the National Archives to see the Declaration of Independence." She saw Matthew a little puzzled, knowing that this guy might not understand, and explained, "The signed The Declaration of Independence, now in the National Archives."

"That's it!" Matthew also shook his head and muttered in his heart, "Why didn't I think about the Declaration of Independence?"

He asked Helen Herman, "Anything more specific?"

Helen Herman put the club on the table and said, "I got the idea of ​​the theme for the project, and it was like this, the Declaration of Independence was found to be hiding a secret treasure map, this vital document. In danger, the hero is forced to steal the Declaration of Independence and unlock the secrets of the Knights Templar treasure."

She added, "This movie is for us, it's an action-adventure genre."

After listening to Helen Herman's words, Matthew had only one figure in his mind - Nicolas Cage!

He has seen a movie about the "Declaration of Independence" and the treasures of the Knights Templar. Now that he tries to recall it, he can still remember a little bit of content. Before, he always thought that this project was related to American Independence or Independence Day, but there was no such thing at all. Consider the Declaration of Independence.

The content of this movie is completely different from what he guessed, and it is basically the treasure hunt movie played by Nicolas Cage.

Nicolas Cage is very popular with fans on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, and Matthew is no exception. Most of Cage's non-literary films have been pirated on the Internet, and they are so bad that they are outrageous and white ghosts. No exception.

If it wasn't for the wrong direction, he would have long thought of this movie called "National Treasure".

He remembered that he had made a second film of this movie, and the first one must not have failed, otherwise there would have been no sequel.

Thinking of this, Matthew asked, "Is this crew established?"

"No." Helen Herman shook his head, "It's still in the stage of script creation. Jerry Bruckheimer temporarily focused on the preparations for "King Arthur" due to financing difficulties, and has been busy with "King Arthur" this month. "work."

Since the funds have not been resolved, it means that there are still opportunities.

Matthew thought about it and said, "Helen, I have an idea. If..." He emphasized, "I mean if, we can help Jerry Bruckheimer raise money, is it possible that he could be in this Use me as the male lead on a new project?"

"Can you pull in to invest?" Helen Herman didn't believe it at all.

"I mean if..." Matthew emphasized again.

Helen Herman glanced at Matthew and said slowly, "The investors you found can make up for the tens of millions of dollars in the budget gap of Jerry Bruckheimer and Disney Pictures. Pirates of the Caribbean will be released next week. "If it can be successful at the box office, the rest will not be a problem."

Matthew's spirits were lifted, Helen Herman continued, "You are different from other actors, you have worked with Jerry Bruckheimer, he has the most basic understanding of you, once "Pirates of the Caribbean" is successful, You will also have a certain box office appeal, and if you can help Jerry Bruckheimer solve the financial problem, the chance of him using you as the male protagonist is more than 80%!"

She smiled and added, "Jerry Bruckheimer likes to use actors he's worked with, and you should be able to see that with Keira Knightley. And he's creditworthy compared to other producers. The better kind."

"You can try it." Matthew muttered.

"You can try." Helen Herman folded his arms and leaned on the table, saying, "As long as you can pull in investment."

"I know someone who is very rich."

When it comes to this point, Matthew no longer hides it. After all, he needs the assistance of experienced professionals like Helen Herman. "He once wanted to ask me to be the leading actor in a film."

Saying this, Helen Herman immediately remembered, "Are you talking about the person who invested in Lakeview Films' Underworld?"

"Yes." Matthew also leaned on the table, "Niebola, as far as my coach, once served as his boxing coach, he said that this man brought a lot of money to Los Angeles to invest in the film industry, and he wanted to Investing in big projects makes a lot of money, but currently only invested in one film, "Underworld"."

Helen Herman understood and said, "If you want to invest in the top six productions, you need a threshold."

Matthew nodded. After coming here for a few years, his knowledge has increased a lot. He waved banknotes and rushed into the investment field eagerly, but those who lacked money may not accept it.

"If I contact him..." Matthew knew that he was not qualified, "Can the company become the threshold?"

Helen Herman said calmly, "As long as "Pirates of the Caribbean" succeeds."

Walt Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer already have plans to launch a sequel, just waiting for the first week of "Pirates of the Caribbean" to sell at the box office. In this case, they must start a long-term relationship with Matthew and Angel Agency. Cooperation, investors introduced by angel brokerage companies, will definitely be considered.

Matthew knew what to do, "I'll get in touch with him first and see the specific situation."

"Okay." Helen Herman nodded first, and then added, "If he does have intentions and has enough funds in his hand, I will leave this matter to me to talk to him and Jerry Bruckheimer later. "

Matthew has no opinion on this. Helen Herman may be a bit selfish, but once the negotiation is concluded, the biggest beneficiary is still him, and there is an agent as a buffer. No matter what the outcome of the negotiation is, he and Jerry Bruckheimer will have a relationship. The relationship between them is fairly good, and it will not be too affected.

Then, he called Nebraska and asked Nebraska to pay attention to Fox Sherman.

"I'll go home first." Seeing that everything was fine, Matthew was about to leave, "I asked someone from Red Penguin to renovate the room."

"Huh?" Helen Herman wondered, "You want to renovate the rental house? The owner agreed?"

Matthew shook his head, "No, I'm going to make a room in my house to prepare for Keira Knightley's move in."

Helen Herman waved his hand to him and said nothing.

Matthew left Angel Agency and returned home. The people from Red Penguin arrived on time.

What this company does is Hollywood business, not only providing special services, but also a lot of normal business.

The three workers who came over tidy up a room that served as a utility room according to Matthew's request. Of course, Matthew didn't dismantle the door, and only took what Keira Knightley said as a joke.

After finishing the room, he went to a nearby furniture company to buy a bed and some furniture, but he couldn't get Keira Knightley to lay the floor.

If Keira Knightley wanted to, Matthew wouldn't mind the two of them squeezing together, but this kind of thing always needs your favor, it's meaningless to force it, he's a very poor man, and his moral standards are not good. Extremely limited, but also disdain to do things that force women.

On the third day after finishing Keira Knightley's room, Niebola called him and said that Fox Sherman had an appointment to go to the gym to practice boxing in the afternoon.

After lunch, Matthew also appeared in the fitness club. He was also familiar with Fox Sherman. After seeing him, he said he wanted to talk about something, and Fox Sherman followed him into the entertainment on the first floor. lounge.

"Fox, the last time you asked me, you said you wanted to invest in a movie." Matthew said straight to the point, "I have a project here with a production budget of more than $100 million, and the profit prospects are quite good."

He specially emphasized, "It's a big first-line project for the six major Hollywood companies!"

"Sounds great." Fox Sherman was instantly interested, but then frowned, "Before investing in Underworld ~www.readwn.com~ I also thought about investing in the six major companies, but they I would rather the project is short of money to get a loan from the bank than to accept my investment."

He smiled helplessly, "Investing in six major companies requires entry barriers."

Matthew said directly, "My agency can cooperate with you."

This is only the initial contact, and there will be a series of measures behind the cooperation.

Fox-Sherman thought for a moment and asked, "Matthew, is there a threshold for cooperation as you said?"

Matthew nodded, that's for sure, and if Fox Sherman didn't have the money, he wouldn't come here.

"How much money is needed? Give me a rough figure," Fox-Sherman asked.

"More than ten million dollars." Matthew replied as plainly as possible.

Fox Sherman's eyes widened instantly, and then his face showed more helplessness, "I can only say sorry, most of the funds in my hand are on "Underworld", and now I can't get such a big deal. The amount cannot be raised in a short period of time.”

He let out a long sigh, chatted with Matthew for a while, stood up, shook his head and walked away.

Matthew looked at Fox Sherman's back and scratched his head for a while, not saying anything that would be the result.

Sitting here alone for a while, Matthew quickly figured out that Fox Sherman's funds are not as much as estimated, maybe Fox Sherman's family is rich, but he can be mobilized There is definitely an upper limit.

The original plan was very good, but such an accident occurred, and Matthew could only helplessly smile.

However, he also understands that no matter how well planned, there will be accidents, and it is impossible for everything to develop according to his plans and ideas.

Afterwards, Matthew took out his mobile phone and called Helen Herman. Helen Herman meant to wait until "Pirates of the Caribbean" was released.
