Ace Hollywood

Chapter 182: Everything that is in demand

???

"Is the filming of "God" going well? You seem to be in a good mood.. Lewen Mobile Network"

"Yeah, Seth's a little bit off-key, but he's doing a decent job."

Kusa nodded, "This is your resume. Before you join "Pirates of the Caribbean", a new assistant must be in place, otherwise no one will accompany you to the Caribbean, and Andy will not be able to leave Los Angeles."

"At the beginning, I shot in Los Angeles and the South Bay, and then I went to the Caribbean."

"But you didn't have time at that time, didn't you? Are you going to come back to recruit candidates during the filming of "Pirates", and then immediately take them to Central America?"

Cusa's frown fully showed his disapproval. It has been a long time since this matter was mentioned, but everyone was indeed very busy before. For the release of "Greek Wedding" and the preparations for "Pirates of the Caribbean", there was almost no People opened their hands up.

Now that "Greek Wedding" has achieved miraculous results, and the pre-shooting preparations for "Pirates of the Caribbean" have come to an end, everyone is finally free to return to their respective positions.

Speaking of this, the members of the "Greek Wedding" release team were indeed poached by major companies with high salaries, but unexpectedly, there were more people left than expected, only one from Shanying Company The employees and two employees of the DD headquarters were hired by Paramount and Miramax, and the rest of the employees chose to stay in the original company.

The reasons are fairly consistent.

According to the incentives announced by Daniel, every ordinary employee in this ticket can get a bonus of more than 100,000 US dollars, which has helped many people resist the sugar-coated bullets from outside. At this time, consider it from the perspective of career development. All three of their respective companies have unquestionably great potential. And as participants in this plan, they have naturally become the people with the most potential for improvement in the company. Rather than leave here. Go to those so-called big companies and start over. It's better to seize the opportunity and fight for it. If the company grows bigger, of course, the rewards will be more impressive.

The future of several companies is not their own guess.

In fact, after this wave, major companies inside and outside Hollywood acted more decisively than Daniel and others imagined.

Everyone in the publishing team of "Greek Wedding" got several offers. None of the key players was missed. Cusa Damon was fired from the executive position of the production department by the well-cooperated Universal. If it wasn't for his lack of ambition, otherwise Daniel would really not be sure that he would be able to keep him.

And DD Films, Shanying Company, and MB have all obtained large-scale acquisition negotiation applications.

MB company, which was valued at only 750 million US dollars a few months ago,

This time, some buyers directly opened up to 1 billion yuan, and there is no lack of offers of 500 million yuan. in exchange for half of the shares. Of course, MB will not accept it. They are now facing the best profit moment since the company was founded. The cooperation model between MB and offline merchants has been proved by the effect. Now there are so many requests for cooperation that it has forced MB to expand itself. The size of the team working on this area. In addition, as Daniel expected, no matter the size of the film studio, in just one month. MB has been approached by dozens of partnerships ranging from tens of thousands of dollars to millions of dollars.

MB's development model has almost become a model for similar companies - because any technology company has to seek round after round of financing in exchange for development funds, and the founder's stock ratio has become more and more difficult under the premise of continuously decreasing Valuable - but many people will eventually have to leave the company they founded, because investors may express dissatisfaction with your decision at any time, and then use their shares to drive you out of their company. This is not necessary for MB. It has relatively sufficient development funds in the early stage, and it relies on a mature profit model from the beginning to support its own development. When it was considered that it had to seek financing under the rapid development, "Greek Wedding" opened up a terrible profit point for it-the cooperation between merchants and movies, TV dramas, and Internet promotion is expected to bring MB several dollars a year. tens of millions of income.

In addition, MB has always been at the forefront in the development of unique profit points. MB is an open platform. Programmers can create various web applications and mount them on MB. If users consume If used, MB can obtain a large proportion of shares. In addition, the pleasant cooperation with the payment company PayPal also allows MB to try to build its own e-commerce platform, not just promotion. At present, it is still focusing on products such as virtual game props, but MB's attempt in this area is one step ahead.

With a large number of active users, the future of MB has always been optimistic. There are countless funds, investment banks, and companies that want to take a share of the crowd, but for now, they still have to wait for the opportunity. The size is getting bigger and bigger, and the possibility of these forces wanting to make huge profits is infinitely reduced.

Goldman Sachs, including Wall Street, has been lobbying MB to go public. Under the premise that technology stocks are still in the doldrums, this proposal has full confidence in MB.

MB is still classified as the Google system, and the three companies in the Google system, Google itself, and MB, are all extremely high-quality assets, and they are also fat in the eyes of Wall Street. In the end, who can swallow it and not be choked depends on their own magical powers, and of course the Google system is also embracing to resist the promotion that is not in their own interests.

The quotations for MB have been available for many years, so these people do not offer too much hope. DD Films, as everyone imagines, has abundant cash flow, and may not be willing to sell the company at this time. What's more, DD's core competitiveness is not strong. As a film studio, it has nothing in hand. Big hit series. Its greatest competitiveness lies in Daniel, and this person cannot be obtained by purchasing DD Films, so DD Films received the least offer on the contrary.

Shanying Company is the champion among the three companies.

It has extremely advanced market analysis theories, highly practical algorithms, personnel and technical foundations for operating network marketing, and an intricate customer system and partners in the industry. These are Shanying's competitiveness.

However, investors are doomed to be disappointed.

Daniel has no plans to sell the companies. This is the fundamental reason. And the potential acquirer doesn't even know who is making the decisions.

In any case, it is doomed that the three companies cannot avoid such "harassment" for a period of time.

...

The assistant candidates selected by Kusa, Melissa, Andy and others for Daniel are all very good. After all, in terms of the salary that Daniel offers, it is enough to hire the top group of people in various industries.

Miller Stone, male. 34 years old. A former Marine with special training who has worked as a security guard for some billionaires.

Sally Cuoco, female. 31 years old, an administrator of a Fortune 500 company, has strong organizational and communication skills.

Dishaer Theron, female, 29 years old, is a single mother, but has qualifications for five professions, including chef, housekeeper, tour guide and psychological counselor.

Daniel was flipping through the resumes of the three, while Kusa was watching with burning eyes. If he doesn't give the result today, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

"Miller, he looks good, not so exaggerated muscles, not too fierce. How's his temper? He won't pick up my fans and throw them out in a fit of anger, will he?"

"Relax, he has enough professional ethics."

"Well, that's fine. Sally, wow, the world's top 500, she is tired of serving the bald boss, so she wants to find a handsome star for a change?"

"She's an ascetic." Kusa's expression was a little strange, "You have to think about this. Her performance is very suitable for this identity. She is almost immune to masculinity and is very persistent in her work. The reason why she left that house The company simply submitted a resignation application because they wanted to send her to Europe, but she didn't want to."

"Tsk tsk."

Daniel took another look at Sally's resume, an alumnus of Coosa and a top student of Brown.

"Will it be a little overkill?"

"Perhaps she is not willing to take on such a heavy task."

Daniel tilted his head, "Then I have no objection. In the end it's Desaer..."

"Kusa, I have to say, you guys are really good. None of these people are ordinary, with five professional qualification certifications, and psychological counselors? Didn't you really add an extra 0 to our salary? ?”

"In fact, the news that you need to recruit assistants has spread, causing a wave of enthusiasm in the headhunting market. It is widely rumored that your big manager, that is, me, earns five million dollars a year easily, and you Melissa, the investment manager of your company, earns no less than two million. Your publicist is the most profitable PR person in the public relations industry. It's all because Triver just bought a big house. As for your former assistant, Andy , Her annual salary of one million is already known to everyone, isn't it? Look, you are surrounded by millionaires, who cares about salary."

Daniel's eyes were about to pop out.

Cusa was split, about $5 million for his film work**. Melissa doesn't have an income of 2 million. After all, she only gets a fixed annual salary. Last year, Daniel gave her 600,000, and then there will be a part of the bonus equivalent to a share in Daniel's business activities. The annual income is probably in the millions. As for Andy, the salary Daniel gave her is indeed a bit outrageous, but under the premise that she can use it as three or four by herself, a salary close to one million is not particularly unacceptable. After all, many of Andy's jobs are no longer in the category of assistants. . Andy's annual salary has dropped to about 400,000 after adjusting his job.

Those who hold shares like Fred are now real multi-millionaires.

Thinking about it this way, Daniel is indeed a bit too generous to his team members.

"Did I make so much money in movies? Shouldn't it all be split up by you?"

Cusa glanced at him to make sure he was joking or something.

"You got more than 10 million for "Pretty Woman", 1 million for "Gladiator", and 1 million for the post-shooting of "Lord of the Rings". You also received 500,000 for extra work on some peripheral products. Bourne Shadow is 7 million, and the package contract of "Bourne Shadow 2 and 3" is 40 million basic salary, "Greek Wedding", "Fake God", "Pirates of the Caribbean", and a small "The Pianist". In addition, your quotation for commercial activities has been reported for more than 500,000 yuan for a single game very early, and now it has already risen to more than 1 million. To be honest, Daniel, you are really unique in this regard. You must know that other Hollywood stars But there is no such opportunity, no matter who you are. Do you know how much money you have earned in the past two years? Of course, this is only in movies and commercial activities, excluding your other aspects, which do not need to be shared with us huge investment income."

"Didn't I get some of them yet? Besides, I also spent a lot—" Daniel almost admired himself. The increase in this salary was faster than robbing a bank. Of course, this can also reflect the past two years. How busy. .

Kusa no longer wanted to speak anymore, so Daniel could only shut up wisely.

"Okay, I don't have any objections. Call people over for a meeting. If there's no problem, let them get ready for work."

Taking back the resume, Kusa stood up and nodded.

"Oh, wait, Kusa, then I'm going to be on those rankings? Forbes, or people or something."

"By the way, Trevor was supposed to inform you of this job, since you've asked. It's the same for me to inform you. People magazine invited you to shoot their New Year's cover. The theme seems to be 'Hollywood's new Billionaire'. You know, since you appeared on the unprecedented solo cover of "News", the magazines that want to ask you to shoot the cover have already been ranked from Los Angeles to Beijing. Maybe, you should try to choose A few letters, many magazines agreed to go to the set to shoot."

"Let me think about it, I'm afraid it's not good to do other things on the set." Daniel had a headache, and when he thought of being crowned a billionaire, he felt his scalp tighten, "Maybe I should ask Miller , Does he have a comrade in arms who is looking for a job, a security guard may not be enough for me."

"It's worth considering."

Daniel's private phone rang suddenly, Kusa gestured, turned and left.

"Triver? If you're going to tell me about the People cover shoot, I have to tell you that Koosa just stole your job."

"No? . . . what? My God, is he crazy?"

Daniel's face suddenly became serious and ugly. Trevor obviously sent a very bad message. After the "Greek Wedding" carnival, there is always some unhappiness coming to the door (to be continued. (LX. ))
