"Where are you sobering up?"

In the living room of the villa at home, Zucker woke up from yesterday's carnival in the morning and was having breakfast at this moment.

Joaquin Phoenix, who was sleepy and drowsy, came down from the stairs and picked up a glass of milk and drank it all without being polite to Juke.

"Wow~ It seems that I really drank too much yesterday. Well, let's say that, I don't know how I will appear in your home now?"

Joaquin held his forehead, revealing a hint of sadness.

Upon hearing this, Zhuke smiled and said, "Hahaha, it seems that you really drank high yesterday and forgot everything. Yesterday was in a nightclub. Whether it was you, Charlize, Keanu Reeves, John Niedep, they all drank too much, only Limak and I were still a little bit."

"Oh? Then now...whether they are?" Joaquin asked.

"Last night, when we were leaving the nightclub market, Keanu was picked up by his girlfriend; Charlize was sent home by her two agents; as for Depp, he is still sleeping in the guest room, and he drank the most yesterday, and probably won't wake up until noon." Juke explained.

"That's it, did you do some good things with Lima last night~"

Suddenly, Joaquin showed a smirk.

A good thing?

But go to yours!

Zhuke scolded angrily: "The Lima family is a devout Christian and refuses premarital sex. What are you thinking all day long?!"

"No!" Joaquin was immediately surprised.

He knew that Zhuke had been dating Lima for several years.

After a pause, he smiled wickedly again: "I said why did you get up so early? It turned out to be...hehe..."

Zhu Ke is so hard!

Although Zhuke has not turned on the red sofa and unspoken rules much, he has at least slept with a few female stars, which is considered a blessing for everyone. However, as his real girlfriend Lima, Zhuke is very tolerant and has not successfully entered the base so far...

In the following time, Zhuke and Joaquin had a chat.

As a member of Hollywood, its chat content naturally includes movies.

"When will we work together?" Joaquin was very happy to star in Wald Pictures' movie.

"Oh~"

Zhuke sighed: "There are new films to be filmed this year, but they are all low-cost movies. You know, just "Harry Potter" and "Spider-Man" have drawn up a lot of manpower and material resources from our company. Until they are over, we can no longer produce high-cost movies."

The lack of various talents seriously restricts the development of Wald Pictures!

Even if Wald Pictures is not short of money at the moment, senior workers and talents will definitely not be solved in a short time.

"Can't agency companies such as caa, icm, uta, wmee provide packaging services? They are not short of talents in photographers, lighting engineers, props, etc." Joaquin said in surprise.

Packaging service?

hehe!

Zhu Ke said disdainfully: "If I had been a few years ago, even if I was unhappy with the one-stop package service of the agency, I would have accepted it in order to shoot movies, but...they can provide the talents they can provide now are really average."

The so-called American entertainment industry package service was first created by a caa brokerage company.

Film companies offer projects and funds;

When an agency plays an actor, remember that it is not an actor, but all actors can provide it, eliminating the selection process of the production company, and even the crew of directors, producers, props, makeup, art, etc., it also serves one-stop.

There is no doubt that the packaged service projects launched by the agency have saved many film companies a lot of preparation time, and the choice of actors is no longer a problem.

It rose in the 1980s and peaked in the 1990s.

But... it's better to spend a hundred days, and no one will be young anymore. The packaging service provided by the agency is too high, which makes it difficult for many production companies to bear. It's okay to make money, but it will be bad once you lose money. Even the pay of Hollywood actors soared rapidly, which is also a factor in packaging service.

This made countless production companies hate it.

In addition, there are many agents from brokerage companies who rushed into the film company's president's office without asking for instructions, slapping the desktop, being arrogant and domineering!

Among them, even the six major Hollywood players were not spared!

For example: In the early 1990s, when filming the "Jurassic Park" movie, a small agent dared to rush into the office of the president of Universal Pictures, one of the six major Hollywood stars, and make a big noise.

What is this to do?

Do agency rebels? Do they overtake production companies?

Therefore, the once famous package service in the American entertainment industry was no longer a hit in the late 1990s. Even though its package service still exists, there are very few professional behind-the-scenes talents that can be provided. The key is that the charges are quite expensive and have become a completely useless existence.

"Talents need to be recruited and trained by themselves, but I'm not at ease with others."

"Besides, I'm not short of money. I'd rather spend more money on my own family than give the agency one more cent!"

Zhuke's words seemed very firm.

"Okay, I get it." Joaquin was very disappointed.

He is very willing to cooperate with Wald Pictures, but the current conditions do not allow it!

Wald Pictures lacks manpower and cannot run several movies at the same time. And now it will only be a small-cost movie.

.........

A few days later.

November 8.

Wald Pictures.

The movie "Death is Coming" has been released on October 29 for a full 10 days, achieving a box office of more than 57 million US dollars, ranking first in all movies during the Halloween period.

Put Warner's movie "Hazed House" behind him.

"Boss, as long as we fight the next battle, the North American box office of the movie "The God of Death" will definitely not be less than $80 million." Kevin Feige reported.

"Next?"

Zucker frowned and said, "Are you referring to Paramount Pictures' new work "Headless Valley" tomorrow?"

"Yes!"

Kevin Feige said in a deep voice: "I was invited to the premiere of "Headless Valley". It is a good movie. The marketing department has given the film good reviews and is expected to have a very outstanding box office performance."

Zhu Ke knew it very well.

The movie "Headless Valley" is indeed an excellent horror/thriller-themed movie. It has achieved a box office of over 100 million in North America in its original time and space, and is a rare fine product among horror movies.

In terms of view, whether it is "The God of Death 1" or Warner's "The Haunted House", they are not as good as Paramount's new work "The Deadhead Valley".

"Once "The Deadhead Valley" takes off, our movie box office will inevitably be affected," said Kevin Feige.

Zhuke pondered: "What else should I think about? Although I will cooperate with Paramount next, it will not prevent us from attacking it."

This is what Zhuke thought, and so did Warner thought.

Competition is everywhere in Hollywood.
