The next day.
Zac Braff, a young man with a dream of directing, stayed up all night excited and watched the time many times. Until 9 am, his eyes were scarlet, but he couldn't stop being excited. Finally, he dialed Kevin Fitch.
"Hello, I'm Zach Braff. Are you Mr. Kevin Fitch, President of Wald pictures?"
Braff said to the phone, nervous.
"Yes, I'm Kevin Fitch. Well, are you Zach Braff? " There was a voice on the phone, and it was Kevin Fitch.
Braff was very excited: "you know me?"
Kevin Fitch on the other end of the line nodded, "yes. Last night, I received an email from Mr. ward, saying that your screenplay "love for New Jersey" is not bad. If you can, you can send the script to my email. After that, we can make an appointment to meet and talk about it, OK? "
"OK, OK, thank you very much." Braff nodded like garlic.
In principle, there are fixed procedures and principles for script submission.
Kevin Fitch, as the president of Wald pictures, is a rare first-hand script.
The company's production department, screenwriter department, external public relations department... Departments with certain functions audit foreign scripts first. After many times of audit, layers of audit, and several discussions, they were able to go to Kevin Fitch's desk.
When you get to Kevin Fitch's desk, is that ok?
no
Every day, the script submitted to Kevin Fitch's desk has more than 95% probability of being thrown into the warehouse to eat ashes.
Only a very few, very few, very few lucky people write scripts that have a very small probability of being favored by Wald pictures;
At the same time, in this small part of the script, there are and only a few scripts will be shot into a film!
Is it cumbersome?
It's really complicated and cruel!
But it can't be done without layer upon layer deletion and selection!
As one of the six largest Hollywood companies, Wald pictures receives dozens of foreign scripts every day, sometimes hundreds of scripts in a day.
Quality can be said to be uneven!
Moreover, the vast majority of scripts, there is no possibility of shooting into a film, and also consider the issue of profitability.
Come on, Wald pictures is a business, not a charity!
"Great
"I can only do what I can!"
"Wald pictures receives so many scripts every day, and many screenwriters are desperate just because of the review time. It's wonderful that I can get the favor of Mr. Wald!"
Braff has reason to be excited. Just by being able to contact Kevin Fitch directly, Braff has been able to make countless screenwriters envy and hate him.
........
Baltimore.
It is the largest city in Maryland and an important seaport city on the Atlantic coast. It is only more than 60 kilometers away from Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States. At the same time, it is also the birthplace of the National Anthem of the United States.
At the moment, a huge Boeing 767 plane landed here at Baltimore International Airport, attracting many people's attention.
"Gee, this is a private plane!"
A new ground crew member exclaimed.
"Lope, don't shout. You are still too young to know that this is the famous "Lola" private plane, which is the aerial vehicle of Mr. Zucker Wald, a well-known American tycoon. " A senior ground crew laughs.
As early as a few days ago, he knew that Zhuke's private plane would land at Baltimore International Airport today.
"Lola" is the air vehicle of Zucker, whose name comes from the film "Lola Run".
The name "Lola", the first film made by Zhuke after he entered Hollywood, represents the start of Zhuke's entertainment industry and has a very important commemorative significance.
"Boss, your trip today is to visit andema sporting goods company. Well, to be exact, you're going to stay in Baltimore for three days One of the members of the think tank, little Baggio Lister, said.
The voice just dropped.
Before Zucker's response, Alexander, the chief assistant who arrived in Baltimore overnight, immediately said, "boss, you can only stay in Baltimore for three days at most. After all, you still have many companies to inspect."
Gale capital, roskey real estate, Standard Bank of California
These enterprises are independent of the Golden Dawn entertainment group. As the chief executive officer and chief assistant of the chairman of the Golden Dawn entertainment group, Alexander naturally has no right to interfere.
But!
If the mention of andema sporting goods company, then as the chief assistant of Zhuke, he is duty bound.
So he flew to Baltimore overnight!
.......
"Hi, Chuck!"
"Hi, Kevin!"
As soon as he arrived at andrma sporting goods, Kevin Planck, the founder and President of andrma, gave him a big hug.
"Mr. Planck, the conference room is ready." The Secretary reminded me.
Planck nodded, looked at Zucker and said, "Zucker, since the conference room is ready, let's talk about work first?"
"Yes, work is important! I'm here to witness the development of andema company! " Zucker waved his hand.
Not long.
Everyone was divided in the conference room. Alexander was in charge of the minutes.
Andrma sporting goods company, founded by former football star Kevin Planck in 1996, is committed to building a better and more advanced sporting goods company. It will also become an influential sports brand in the future.
In 1998, Zucker won more than 70% of andromer for $4.5 million.
In 1999 and 2000, for two consecutive years, Zhuke made several additional investments, and owned 91% of the equity of Adema company at one stroke, turning it into a subsidiary of Golden Dawn entertainment group.
Kevin Planck, the founder, is very satisfied with his single digit stake in Andromeda.
With the support of Zhuke, andema sporting goods company has been booming in recent years.
"So far, magazines such as fortune and finance, as well as professional investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan, have given us an estimated value of $100 million."
"In just a few years, we are proud to have reached this stage of development."
"At the same time, on the basis of developing Rugby supplies, we have officially started the sports products of basketball, football and other sports in the middle of 2000. In the future, we have not yet relied on the advantages of sports brands to build sanitary clothes, ordinary T-shirts, sports pants
"Baltimore, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Salt Lake City and other major cities, since the end of 1999, we have also started to build direct stores. It is estimated that by the end of 2001, the number of Direct stores alone will reach 30; The number of franchise stores will reach 100. "
........
Hearing these data, Zhuke couldn't help laughing.
Andrma sporting goods company, from a pure Rugby supplies provider, has become a designer and supplier of rugby, football, basketball, tennis and other sports products, which is definitely a huge progress.
Sweater, ordinary T-shirt, sports pants, shoes
These common clothes are the growth point of andema's future profits!
Zucker looked at Planck and asked, "Kevin, in football, I have a Manchester City Club in England. If I buy an NBA basketball team, will it bring better benefits to the company?"
"Buy an NBA basketball team?"
Planck looked at Zhuke in horror and swallowed his breath. "Man, you're not kidding me, are you?"
It's unbelievable!
"Kevin, I just made $1.3 billion in Japan's financial market a few days ago, don't you know? It's easy to buy an NBA basketball team
Planck: "the..."
I don't know!
Yesterday, he was still in hospital. I can't help it. It's an old problem he left behind when he was an athlete.
Zhu Ke's Fengfeng capital takes $1.3 billion a day. He really doesn't know!
"NIMA, are rich people so wild?"
The second watch is on.
