Chapter 1693： important attitude

Today's fifth update, please recommend, please subscribe!

In short, the Writers Guild and the Producers Guild of America on both sides of the strait are different. In the dispute of interests between film companies, in fact, Evan Bell has no say as an individual. Although he has a good appeal in the four and trade unions, his age in his early twenties is doomed to him not. Possibly an important position, not to mention his thorny personality, so he has no right to negotiate as a representative in the process, at most only expressing his opinion as a member.

Then, as a member, Evan Bell is both a screenwriter and a producer, which is a dilemma.

If we discuss further, the position of Eleven Studio in this process is not so simple. Even if Evan-Bell agrees to the requirements of the Screenwriters Guild, Eleven Studio and the Screenwriters Guild will re-negotiate the ratio of dividends, but this is only It's just the position of Eleven Studios. It can't be regarded as the position of other film companies. Instead, it will become the public enemy of other film companies.

Looking at the problem from the perspective of the film company, the screenwriter requires an increase in wages, which is accompanied by an increase in the cost of film shooting, distribution and other links, and can even cause all-round cost fluctuations. This is the core interest of the film company. Influence, the entire radiation surface can even spread to every corner of the film, TV production, publicity and distribution. Therefore, it is impossible for the film company to agree, or they are unwilling to agree. A change in interest will lead to a change in the entire chain of interests. The film company is bound to hold together and fight the screenwriters union to the end.

In addition, in terms of utube's dividends, Eleven Studios also signed agreements with other film companies, and they have no right to decide for those companies how much dividends should be distributed to screenwriters. In other words, even if Evan-Bell agrees with utube's It is also invalid to distribute an extra part of the dividend to the screenwriter, unless this part of the dividend is paid by Eleven Studio itself. Even if Studio Eleven is willing, other film companies are unwilling. After all, in the process, Studio Eleven belongs to the ranks of film companies. This is a battle of interests between the two groups, and no one can be alone.

"I think the salaries of screenwriters should indeed increase." Patrick Valron wanted to say a few more words, but when he heard Evan Bell's answer, he was completely stunned. He really didn't expect that, Evan Bell's answer was so straightforward that he didn't even need to waste his words too much. He just heard this issue and gave the answer he wanted most.

Evan Bell's understanding of this matter is actually slightly different. At first, he knew that this was actually a question of historical trends. Even in a slave society, it was impossible for slave owners to completely squeeze the labor force of slaves, otherwise there would be resistance, not to mention the current screenwriters union and producers. The relationship between the labor unions is not just an employment relationship, but can also be regarded as a cooperative relationship. The income of the producer union has increased, and it is normal for the screenwriters union to ask for better treatment. If the producer union is always tough, in the end It's the major film companies that suffer.

Second, Eleven Studio is a small company, and the increase in the treatment of screenwriters is not so serious. Even the new online media forces represented by utube and ne, Fang Zai, after the screenwriters increase the dividend ratio, will affect Eleven Studios. impact is also limited. Of course, it is undeniable that Evan Bell is not a businessman in essence, and he places far less emphasis on interests than those big companies, which is also one of the reasons.

The last and most important point is that the Screenwriters Guild is only asking for an increase in wages. As for how much to increase the percentage of dividends, it is a negotiation process. This is a business negotiation, and the Screenwriters Guild now has a big weapon: if the screenwriters are smashed, almost the entire production process of Hollywood movies and TV will be stopped. This is the most powerful weapon. Therefore, even if the screenwriters lose their jobs and have no income in the short term, they all know that the short-term difficulties are for long-term benefits, so they will not give up. Then, in the tug-of-war between screenwriters and film companies, the screenwriters union still has the upper hand, so it is imperative to raise wages in the end.

Another point is that Evan-Bell is the head of Studio Eleven, but don’t forget that he is an independent singer and an independent actor. In addition to the work of screenwriting and soundtracking, Evan-Bell has a lot of behind-the-scenes work. The hardships are very experienced. In Evan Bell, the color of film workers is still more intense than the interests of film companies. Therefore, Evan-Bell is more willing to think from the perspective of the screenwriter.

Interests, there will always be new interests. In a popular way, it means "money can't be earned." Evan-Bell is not a capitalist, so he does not have the concept of depriving laborers, and he doesn't pay much attention to money. . Therefore, Evan-Bell agreed very readily.

In Evan Bell's view, this is a matter of course; but in Patrick Varron's view, it is a significant improvement! I think it still needs to be negotiated if you don't ask for the specific salary increase. No matter if you must stand in the position of Eleven Studio, or the major companies involved in utube, or the entire Hollywood Producers Union, I can't do it. decided. "Evan Bell added.

Patrick-Varon was awake at this time, and he repeatedly said, "Of course, of course, of course." His excitement was a little gaffe, because the progress of things today was a little too smooth, but it made him a little bit. Not quite used to it.

In fact, everyone knows that this is a entanglement of interests between the two groups, and the strength of the individual is too small. In this contest, Evan-Bell does not represent an individual, but a group. In the Writers Guild of America, Evan Bell represents the support of high-income screenwriters for the entire Writers Guild; in the Producers Guild of America, Evan Bell represents the interest groups related to Eleven Studios.

Patrick Valron knows that Evan Bell has no right to decide, but Evan Bell's attitude is crucial. On the one hand, the support of Evan-Bell can boost the morale of the screenwriters' union. On the other hand, Evan-Bell can also become a breakthrough for the producer's union. In a critical moment, it may not be of interest to be able to give some support to the screenwriters' union. Concession, but at least a willingness to increase the screenwriter's dividend ratio, this little pour is enough to make Patrick-Varron confident.

Therefore, Patrick-Varon came to Evan-Bell today, not for profit distribution, nor for Eleven Studio and utube to directly increase the screenwriters' dividend ratio, but for Evan-Bell's attitude . Either neutral, support, or opposition is such an attitude, and then the Screenwriters Guild will be able to have a bottom line, and can formulate corresponding strategies in the course of future battles.

Now, Patrick-Varron has got a result that he is most satisfied with: Evan-Bell gave the Writers Guild of America support without hesitation, which is really good.

"We're going to have a verdict with the producers next week, but you know, we have to know your attitude." Patrick Iwaron said, without concealing his purpose, because he knew, Evan Bell is well aware of this.

Not long ago, there were fluctuations within the opposing alliance, around the world. It can be seen that Eleven Studio has quietly affected the interest structure of major Hollywood film companies; this time The same is true, the Writers Guild of America has to look at the attitude of Eleven Studios. In the process of competing for interests, Eleven Studios may not be decisive, but at least it is a heavyweight foundation.

Evan Yibel smiled and didn't say anything more, just expressed his joy again. Point, "I express my absolute support for the screenwriters union! I hope to contribute to the union."

Although it was two o'clock in the middle of the night, Patrick Varon was in high spirits. It took less than ten minutes after the three of them sat down to talk, and he completed his goal. This was definitely something he didn't expect before he set off. . Soon, Patrick-Varone left, and he did not intend to continue to occupy Evan-Bell's rest time.

After Patrick Varon left, Ehuo Bell briefly told Teddy Bell about the matter. In fact, about the entanglement between various interest groupsTeddy Bell is more clear, because this It was his specialty, and he quickly understood what his younger brother meant. Teddy Bell also knew that video sites such as utube and Hulu.com would usher in some turbulence in the next period of time, and because of the special location of Eleven Studio, he must not take it lightly.

Sure enough, Hollywood was quite nervous about the storm coming. The East and West Coast Writers Guild and the American Producers Association held intensive negotiations. It was announced that they had gone through a negotiation. There are two negotiations and one formal negotiation. The attitudes of both sides are very strong.

The Writers Guild of America said in a statement, "We have no choice but to **. The Producers Guild would rather close the town and refer to Hollywood than negotiate fairly and reasonably."

Nicholas Conte, president of the Producers Guild of America, disagrees, saying the producers have been innocently calculated, "their demands are almost unreasonable. Last year we have added $56 million to the Dividends from DVD sales, which is already a heavy burden for us, still can't satisfy their appetite. Also, the writers' union negotiates insincerely, and when we really negotiate with them, they are in full swing* * details. We will not compromise on their terms because of their *."

So, **!
