Chapter 109

Name:Chicago 1990 Author:齐可休
After a night's rest in Los Angeles, Sonya returned to Chicago. The Los Angeles police were relieved. They were afraid of another accident at this time.

“M-FXXK!”

Back at the office of a + records, he inquired about the two Hollywood films he had invested in, but he didn't expect to get bad news. The actor who was so optimistic about Xiao Li, who appeared in the only episode of the Apocalypse movie, expected that all the two films released this year would hit the Street, with a total investment of $50000, even no splash.

Heartache!

Song asheng, who came back from San Francisco, shivered in his anger. The old man helped his monocular. "Boss, don't blame me. It was Nong's idea. Besides, it's normal to invest in Hollywood for nothing."

"No money back?" Song Ya stares at him and asks Goodman.

Goodman rummaged through the contract he had signed. "The first film," the devil three, "was abandoned by the producers and transferred directly to the video market. Because your investment agreement signed a box office profit share, the video income has nothing to do with you. So, yes, the profit of this movie is: zero. In the second film, the producer announced bankruptcy after half of the shooting. Now the office is empty, and the company's boss has run away... "

"What the hell..." Song Ya speechless, Tianqi plug-in, you pit Laozi again!

"Moreover, even if the first film can enter the cinema market and be released successfully, your investment rate will probably not be recovered. The distribution company has 10000 ways to lose the producer's share, and the producer has 10000 ways to make even accounts. As long as there is no profit in the book, you are a small investor who simply gives money to think that he can be at ease by signing a contract, and can't get back a cent at all. ”

Hayden has the meaning of seeing song Ya's joke, "I warned you earlier. Hollywood is so dark that you can't see five fingers, you..."

Hayden said and found that song Ya was staring at him coldly and stopped nagging.

Song ya did not intend to let him go, "go on."

He zipped his mouth with his hand.

"Hum, is that how you, William Morris, serve our customers?" Song Ya beat him.

"This time, you're not trapped. The producers have lost money. It's bad luck to lose money together. The brokerage company is not a prophet. If we can know which movie will sell well, it would be great."

Hayden still opened his mouth. "Even if you know, Hollywood money is not so easy to earn. It's very complicated. It's too difficult for a small investor like you who doesn't have any contacts. You can't even see the real accounts of the producers, distributors and cinemas. How can you get money out of their mouths?"

With his detailed introduction, song Ya understood that, first of all, film investment is a gamble. No one will know the taste and preference of the audience in advance. Even the seven major film companies often make big productions with huge losses, let alone know nothing about the film industry itself.

Then Hollywood's favorite pit is its own investors. You take the money to sign a standard contract, and then sit and wait for the film to make money? How can there be such a good thing in the world? They can play you to death if they do the accounting at will. For example, when you audit, you find that the setting cost one million yuan, and ask what has been done? Built a church for the background. What about the church? After shooting the movie, I'll tear it down.

Then you go to check the accounts of the construction company that contracted the construction of the church. You find that they subcontract the project to a company registered on a small island abroad. Even if you are really good and the accountants employed are competent, you can check the accounts on the island and find that the project has been transferred back to a company in America.

If you check again, the truth is that the company has recovered losses through litigation in the name of an executive of the producer. It is estimated that the money you have recovered will not be enough to hire accountants and lawyers at that time. In addition, you should also be on guard against the other party's eagerness to ask you to be shot.

This is still a little bit of a trick of the producers. The distributors are more black, but the cinemas are cleaner. That's because in the past, the production distribution and the cinema were all one company, which was too black and was forced to separate by the US government's legislation. But that was just once. In the 1980s, through a series of legal and political attacks and defenses, big film companies have now returned to the cinema market, bought shares of many film companies, and gradually regained their influence. It's just a lesson from the past. Now they don't dare to go too far in this field.

Therefore, the common practice of small investors now is to gather together and purchase the guarantee services of large insurance companies that are proficient in Hollywood routines, so as to ensure that their investment can get back some profits. However, that kind of service will lead to the increase of capital cost, and the rate of return on investment is still very difficult to see. Or you can invest in small company's low-cost movies, such as song Ya's low-cost production. Since it's a gambling type, the income is more unstable. If a small company goes bankrupt, it will go bankrupt. If you can't put it on the cinema, you can't do anything about it. Moreover, this kind of investment requires people who are proficient in the internal rules of Hollywood.

"Can I invest in Xiao Li, and the money will follow him?" Song Ya asked.

"Actors bring money into the group? Only superstars have the confidence to talk to the producers about this. Li is not qualified yet. " "You don't want to invest in him, do you?" Hayden said"Alas Song Ya sighed, "forget it, forget it, or forget it before you understand Hollywood."

"At least you have to build a network. Besides, you can't get money into Hollywood without a reliable and capable person to lead the way." "It's better to be Jewish," Hayden suggests

"I see." Song Ya was taught, and the influence of Jewish people in Hollywood is well known.

The Hollywood dream has been suspended for a while. Naturally, Hally's side can't help. When Hayden and Hayden leave, song Ya calls and tells us about the next two films, saying that she can't help.

Naturally, Hally was disappointed, but song Ya knew that with her intelligence, she would not hang herself from one of her own trees.

"May I come in?" Hang up the phone. Fergie is outside knocking on the door.

"Come in. What's up?"

Fergie pushed the door in. Today, she put on the polka dot butterfly sleeve. Song Ya hated this kind of dress style which perfectly covered her beautiful figure. "Didn't Hayden tell you the schedule? Don't you come to the company when you use the recording room time. Is dance class and vocal music class not enough for you? " He stiffened his face and continued to press.

"I'm sorry."

Feiji apologized in a soft voice, "I just want to ask if there are any new songs I can practice..."

"I'll arrange this later. We have to train new people step by step." Good girl route? Sonya thought of Cassidy again.

"But I'm no longer a newcomer. On the children's company..." She protested in a whisper.

"Pa!"

Song Ya threw the document in his hand on the table, "in my eyes, you are a new man! I lost money in Hollywood today. I'm in a bad mood. Don't bargain with me

"I'm sorry..." Fergie stuck out her tongue and lowered her head.

"Sit down."

Song Ya motioned her to sit on the chair in front of the boss's desk. Then she took out a piece of rubbish lyrics and music that she didn't know to throw from the drawer. She went to her, put her buttocks on the boss's table, so that her crotch was right in front of her line of sight. "Here is a new song. Do you want to try it?" He used the trick Eric taught him and began to seduce him.

"Yes Feiji raised her head and was shocked to see song Ya's posture. However, she quickly responded, "boss, are you harassing me?" She asked, smiling and staring into Sonya's eyes.

"Well? Cough, don't talk nonsense Song ya did not expect that the other side would directly expose himself, "do you know what harassment is?"

"Of course, I've been trained by the actors' Union to prevent harassment. I told you I'm not a newcomer." Fergie's smile grew stronger.

This smart girl!

Song Ya is a little uncertain. If she didn't think this kind of girl was good at sneaking, why did he sign her? "You are mistaken. Let's talk about the new song." He handed the score in his hand.

"What a rubbish song Feiji's musical accomplishment is no worse than song ya, otherwise she would not have been starred in children's music program at a young age.

"Easy first, then difficult. Again, don't bargain with me." Song Ya's face was stiff again.

"All right." Fergie puckered up and stopped talking.

They were silent for a moment. "What else can I do for you?" Song Ya asked.

"Boss, you promised, clothes..."

Feiji touches her butterfly sleeve.

Song Ya then remembered that he said to her sister that he would buy some clothes for her.

Feelings you wear this dress to come to me on purpose today!?
