Chapter 364: Rolex

Ask for monthly tickets and recommended tickets!

Hearing Helen Herman's words, Matthew immediately understood that this should not have been found by the manufacturer on his own initiative, and couldn't help asking, "You contacted."

"What do you think?" Helen Herman knew very well that Matthew was about to step into the front line. With this guy's temperament, if she couldn't meet her ability and someone was willing to pay liquidated damages, it was not impossible to switch jobs. Prepared a big move, deliberately left it at this time.

She said lightly, "You don't think I'll take your cut and do nothing but film negotiations, right?"

Matthew smiled, "I didn't think about it that way."

Helen Herman just said that it is a watch endorsement. With her strategy, it is definitely not a low-end brand. If measured by the standards on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, those high-end brand watches tend to be higher.

At that time, there was even a saying, "The poor play with the car and the rich play with the watch".

It must have taken a lot of effort for Helen Herman to contact him to endorse a watch brand.

"Which brand?" Matthew asked curiously.

"Rolex." Helen Herman went on to say in detail, "One of the global spokespersons of Rolex mechanical watches, it is estimated that someone from Rolex headquarters will come to Los Angeles next month to negotiate a contract with us."

Matthew asked again, "Isn't there an assessment like Mercedes-Benz?"

Helen Herman shook her head, "No!" Her voice was still calm and indifferent, "As long as you don't object, when the Rolex people come to Los Angeles, we can sign the contract directly."

Matthew shrugged. "Why should I object?" He added, "I thought it was Patek Philippe."

"Patek Philippe doesn't ask celebrities to be endorsements, they have always insisted that the watch is the spokesperson's marketing strategy." Knowing that Matthew didn't know much about it, Helen Herman explained, "Rolex is basically the ceiling of the watch endorsement that popular stars can get. Rolex is the king of brand building, the king of value and price stability, the king of channels, and Patek Philippe is the king of niche high-end.”

She thought about it and said more vividly, "Patek Philippe's positioning belongs to high-end luxury goods, while Rolex's positioning is mass luxury goods."

Matthew remembered that Helen Herman told him that top brands would rarely use celebrities as endorsements.

In fact, he also knows that Rolex is also a luxury brand, and getting such an endorsement will definitely help improve the quality. Helen Herman has never disclosed any news in this regard before, and it is estimated that he wants to let him see it. Her ability as an agent is no worse than that of a big company's ace agent.

Rolex's brand endorsement does not conflict with Mercedes-Benz. Since Rolex is interested, of course he will accept it.

Helen Herman said at this time, "Rolex's intention is to sign with you for five years..."

"They really know how to find a time point!" Matthew couldn't help interrupting Helen Herman. "With the two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean", I can be popular for at least five years."

"Rolex is not a charity organization." Helen Herman felt very normal, and added, "The five-year endorsement fee is 15 million US dollars, and Rolex will sponsor you a full range of high-end watches for daily and public use. It’s also a condition of an endorsement contract, and you have to wear a Rolex on high-profile occasions like premieres, award ceremonies and talk shows.”

"No problem." Matthew still has the spirit of a business contract, "I can save money on buying watches in the future."

He then wondered, "Is the endorsement fee a bit low?"

Helen Herman seems to know that Matthew has asked this question, and has already prepared the answer, "You are only one of the global spokespersons, there are many global spokespersons for Rolex, this time there are three new ones, in addition to you, also There are Swiss tennis star Roger Federer and supermodel Cindy Crawford, of which Roger Federer has the longest contract, and the contract may be 10 years and $20 million. Cindy Crawford is the same as yours. It's a three-year contract, but she's a woman, so the endorsement fee should be lower than yours."

"You can do it if you think it's appropriate." Matthew is relatively reassured about this aspect, after all, how much he earns is directly related to Helen Herman's commission, and then asked curiously, "Rolex is still looking for tennis stars as endorsements? "

"You don't usually watch tennis events, so you shouldn't know." Helen Herman explained casually, "Rolex has sponsored several top tennis events, Roger Federer is still Swiss, and the endorsements of tennis stars are generally more High end."

She thought about it for a while, and then said, "The specific details will have to wait until someone from Rolex arrives."

Matthew nodded and said, "Okay, remember to notify me when they arrive."

If he can successfully sign the Rolex contract, he will earn seven or eight million dollars a year from endorsements alone. As long as he can continue to be popular, he will definitely receive more endorsement advertisements.

Helen Herman apparently thought about it with him, saying, "In my plan, you can get no less than five endorsement contracts, Mercedes-Benz and Rolex are just the beginning."

"Don't worry." Matthew knew Helen Herman and understood the subtext behind those words, "We are so happy to work together, I won't change jobs."

Unless other companies can come up with conditions that he can't refuse at all, staying in the Angel Agency is the wisest choice now. He is the number one star of the Angel Agency. The resources of the company and Helen Herman will be given priority. In him, even in the hype around him and Charlize Theron, all the power will be concentrated.

If you switch to another brokerage company, you won't have this kind of treatment.

More importantly, the route planned by Helen Herman is largely in line with what he hoped.

"Is there anything else?" Matthew glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "If I have nothing to do, I'll go first."

"Well, I need your help with something." Helen Herman was not polite to Matthew, and said directly, "I just signed Eva Green, the first film in Hollywood failed, and the following development Very problematic, there are a number of supporting roles auditioning for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew, and one of them is the role of a witch, I think her appearance and temperament are very suitable, if you have a chance, please help."

Matthew thought for a while, it shouldn't be too difficult, and said, "I'll deal with it according to the situation."

Leaving Helen Herman's office, before going downstairs, his cell phone rang. Matthew took it out and took a look. It was Michael Fassbender who called and asked him to go to a bar for a drink at night. James McAvoy will go too.

After the call, he simply didn’t leave, sent a text message to Charlize Theron, and then went to Helen Herman to ask for the script for the two sequels of “Pirates of the Caribbean” and read it.

More than a month ago, Matthew received the script for the last two sequels specially sent by Disney Pictures, and he has studied it many times, but the script has not been fully finalized even now, which is very in line with Jerry Brook. Consistent style of projects produced by Heimer.

Of course, the main plot should not change.

The scripts for the two sequels, although still in a three-lead structure, include the roles of Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan based on the popularity of the characters in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. , Compared with the appearance in his impression, there have been obvious adjustments.

The most notable is that Will Turner continues to be strengthened. Although the role is still not as good as that of Jack Sparrow, he can still be called the hero, and together with Jack Sparrow, he supports the whole story.

The length and volume of a film are limited. As the most popular character of Jack Sparrow, it is impossible to reduce the role of Will Turner. Naturally, it is Elizabeth Swan who sacrifices.

If Elizabeth Swan is like a supporting actress in "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl", from the perspective of these two scripts, Elizabeth Swan is really going to become a worthy of the name in these two sequels. supporting actress.

I just don't know if Keira Knightley will have any opinion on this. She was also present at the engagement ceremony that day, but Matthew only spoke to her briefly, and did not mention the script and characters.

In any case, Keira Knightley will still hang the title of the heroine~www.readwn.com~ and her play path is also changing, Matthew heard Helen Herman mentioned, in the "King Arthur" fiasco After that, in addition to the two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Keira Knightley is not going to take on commercial entertainment films and will focus on independent literary and artistic genres. This year, a "Pride and Prejudice" starring her will be released.

Matthew estimates that it will be difficult to see Keira Knightley in commercial films other than "Pirates of the Caribbean" in the future. This is not only her own choice, but also the negative effect of the defeat of "King Arthur".

At the end of this month, two sequels to "Pirates of the Caribbean" will begin filming.

After flipping through the two scripts, Matthew saw that it was close to the end of get off work, left the Angels Agency, and drove to the bar that he had an appointment with Michael Fassbender. He was the earliest, Michael Fassbender and James- McAvoy also went to the bar in the next ten minutes.

The three of them drank happily and chatted while drinking, from Hollywood lace to which female star they wanted to soak in to their respective jobs.

Matthew learned from it that Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy are not going to return to London for development, but will stay in Los Angeles to work hard. The competition in the UK is indeed smaller, but the opportunities are also much less than Los Angeles.

This is undoubtedly good news for Matthew.

"I have a project on my side, and I'm one of the planners, and I'll be the male lead." Of course Matthew wanted to help Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy, "according to the graphic novel "St. The film adapted from "Bada Three Hundred Warriors" has a war theme and has several outstanding supporting roles."

He added, "It's probably going to take a lot of exercise before filming starts."

Matthew didn't say much. It was up to them to choose whether to go or not. )!!
