Chatty Hollywood

Anthony Westwood didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.

I laughed because the internal screening of "Happy Death" was very successful.

This can be seen from the audience’s live reactions without even looking at the questionnaires and statistical reports filled out by each audience.

After all, the laughter and the air-conditioning with the startle again and again, but can't deceive people.

Mr. Westwood believes in the direct reactions of the audience more than the stinky and long tirades of film critics.

Now, the immediate reaction of the audience tells him that the movie is finished!

Isn't this something worthy of a laugh from his producer?

Especially, after watching it in person, Mr. Westwood found that "Happy Death" can be said to have no urine points throughout the course. In fact, looking at the audience, he found that only two people left in the middle of the game——

Director and deputy director!

——You two goods, are your hearts too big or your bladder too small! ! ?

The producer despised his two partners and touched his pockets by the way.

Fortunately, take medicine!

As for wanting to cry, to be precise, it was Mr. Westwood's dumbfounding, and it was also the success of the internal screening of "Happy Death Day".

Mr. Westwood had known for a long time that the senior members of Lao Gun and their "Deadly Bend" crew had replaced the investment in "Happy Death" with the unreceived share.

For him, it's nothing.

In fact, the news that New Line Company intends to owe "Fatal Corner" share is secretly revealed to Charlotte.

Although he dared not call himself a good person, Mr. Westwood would sometimes act on his conscience.

Especially at that time he also decided to retire.

Therefore, he decided to be a good person for the new line.

However--

"The impulse is the devil!"

Now he regrets a bit.

No way, because he wanted to retire and was unable to live his conscience, he revealed the news to Charlotte on impulse;

It was also because the box office results of "Fatal Corner" were so good that he raised his eyebrows for a long time, and as a result he gave up his retirement plan on impulse.

As a result, "Fatal Corner" was divided into problems and caused trouble. After a round trip, it fell on Mr. Westwood who continued to work with Charlotte and the others on "Happy Death Day".

"Do it yourself!"

Mr. Westwood regretfully wanted to hit the wall.

"No wonder in the movie, once the villain characters are washed out, the eight achievements will be dead-washed out and weak in three points! I have been in the movie circle for so long, how can I forget this truth!?"

It is a pity that although Mr. Westwood carries medicine with him, it will not be regret medicine.

Seeing that as soon as the internal screening was over, the audience and film critics were completely ignored, so I went straight to Judy Foster and Cesares Parton-the latter is the Orion company responsible for the follow-up of "Happy Death" "Mr. Westwood knew that the trouble was coming...

*********

Seeing Mr. Westwood, Judy Foster, and Orion's Cesares Parton rushing out aggressively from the screening room to find them, both Charlotte and Old Gun were a bit daunted.

But they didn't ask what was going on.

Not only did they quickly introduce the situation to the people opposite, but also because it was a situation they had planned a long time ago and rehearsed many times in their hearts.

——This is almost the most powerful situation!

In fact, everyone knows the bottom line.

Whether Mr. Westwood, Judy Foster, or Cesares Parton, they all know the purpose of investing in the small amount of "Happy Death" project in their hands.

This is a bet!

The bet is on Charlotte Booth's level of directing and the prospect of "Happy Death"!

Now that they have won the bet, the filmmakers have confessed to the bet very bachelorly...

Because of the trouble in the "egg" production company of Judy Foster, Mr. Westwood did not reach a private agreement on behalf of the new line and the Orion company represented by Cesares. Therefore, the old guns finally got the opportunity to cash out. .

In the end, it was Mr. Westwood who bought part of the investment or equity in the hands of Old Gun on behalf of New Line.

This part of the money is already 40% more than the previous "Fatal Turn" should be divided.

"The money must be given sooner or later!"

Mr. Westwood shook his head.

To be precise, Lao Gun and them actually used the possible future revenue sharing of "Happy Death" in exchange for cash, so that they can withdraw from the capital game ahead of time.

Therefore, it is difficult to say whether they have made a profit or a loss, but if they only compare the share of the previous "Fatal Corner", they have indeed made a lot of money.

After all, they have been divided into problem pits once in "Fatal Turn". It is a very realistic choice to choose to learn from the lesson now, and to take care of the present.

As for the new line companies, they actually did not lose money.

Although they have paid more money, if "Happy Death Day" can be sold as scheduled, they will still be able to make a lot of money if they have won the lead in the distribution.

This is the fundamental reason why Mr. Westwood is willing to spend money to buy the little equity in their hands.

Of course, at the same time, it was also to make good friends with Charlotte and Lao Qiang.

After all, it seems that Charlotte is very promising as a director.

Such a cutting-edge director is something that every film company and producer is happy to make friends with.

Looking at what the old guns mean, 80% of them will become a member of Charlotte's director's studio!

"Just go back, the big boss will have to pay a little bit of saliva!"

Thinking of the stingy character of his own company boss, Mr. Westwood also had a headache.

This is actually a very normal thing. After all, what kind of boss will create what kind of company~www.readwn.com~The boss of a company like Xinxian who likes to repay, how can it be a generous person?

"If you don't take advantage, you will suffer. How can you tell that Grandet?"

Mr. Westwood scratched his head and suddenly remembered that he had a big killer.

"Big deal if he talks nonsense, I will pretend to have a heart attack."

...It can only be said that model employees working with illness cannot afford to hurt them.

********

Charlotte and the others didn't know about the fighting within the new line company.

According to the post-event survey of the audience at the internal preview, "Happy Death Day" can indeed be said to be a great success.

People generally gave good ratings and expressed their willingness to recommend to their friends.

This kind of word-of-mouth communication ability is what all filmmakers are willing to see.

As for the film critics--

It is more difficult for these professional sprayers to sing hymns collectively, but overall, the praise rate of film critics has exceeded 80%, which is a very good level.

In particular, several of the more heavyweights, such as Kenneth Turan and Richard Manson, are optimistic about the prospects of "Happy Death".

Although limited to confidentiality requirements, they are not yet able to publish film reviews, but their optimistic attitude has given confidence to the two companies, Xinxian and Orion.

The publicity and pre-sales of "Happy Death" are all in full swing. The schedule was also selected for the Christmas schedule in 1994 as Mr. Westwood had expected.

December 23.

Seeing that another Christmas has come.

PS: "Escape the Golden Cicada" is a 2013 film, the focus is on the leading roles, Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger, Charlize in the book must like this movie;
