American Fame and Fortune Chapter 775

 Chapter 775 The Selection Plan of the Saints' Heavenly Group

  In the reception room of the crew, the petite Alexandrovich could not hide his fatigue after the long journey, but he still kept his spirits up when facing the sponsors and the bosses behind the scenes.

"Boss, we have gained a lot after returning to Ukraine this time." He reported to Martin like a loyal subordinate: "Marius and I re-dubbed "Napoleon's Beauty" and then released it in Ukraine. The film was released last month At the same time, it received US$8.94 million in box office in Ukraine and Russia. We then handed it over to TV Station 6 for broadcast, and received another US$1 million in TV rights.”

Martin was not shy about his praise: "You did a very good job and really opened up the Ukrainian and Russian markets. I have always believed in your ability, and you really did not disappoint me."

Alexandrovich added about the new project: "The filming of "Servant of the People" has been completed and is in post-production. We have signed a premiere agreement with the Ukrainian 1+1 TV station and are currently negotiating with Russian and Belarusian TV stations."

ˆ Relevant income and financial details have long been transferred from Ukraine to Davis Studio.

 Martin sent a Russian-born financial supervisor in the past who also had an independent report.

 Hence, he is basically satisfied with Alexandrovich at this stage.

 Of course it will be difficult to say in the future.

Although the majority of the film's income went to Davis Studio, Alexandrovich earned more from this film than from his years in the industry combined.

He finally hugged this big thick leg. He wanted to hold it for a few more years and quickly show his new value: "Boss, Ukraine's number one girl group Saints has collapsed again. The three members not only have a relationship with their manager There are many conflicts in the company, and we are even at odds with each other to the point where there is no one for me.”

 Especially the tenth generation, which was the most stable, he couldn't remember clearly, but related performance videos were widely circulated on the Internet in his previous life.

In the eyes of Alexandrovich, Martin, the Hollywood boss, is his real confidence.

It is not difficult for Martin to think: "Like the model of "American Idol"?"

 Money, the little money he thought he could earn, would hardly make the boss smile.

He emphasized: "The audience will also understand that the Saints' group has gone through 16 generations since its formation in 2000, and each generation is synonymous with sexiness and beauty!"

 The other one is the Holy Maiden Group, and the reason is well known to everyone.

 Martin also knows that the key to the Saints' success is not their singing.

It was definitely not the three people Alexandrovich was talking about, because Martin had met two of the members when Leonardo was partying in Paris.

 Martin asked: “Is this profitable?”

At this point, he glanced at Martin secretly.

 This is absolutely unmistakable.

Status and fame are even more different, and Alexandrovich does not think he can make much contribution to these.

What Alexandrovich has done is not only to buy the Saints' Angels and reorganize the Saints' Angels, but also to select the three people who best meet the requirements: "I plan to adopt a selection model like American Idol plus Miss Universe. , national participation, live broadcast, singing competition, and the most important, live beauty pageant.”

 Of course, it is important to have certain singing skills, but the fiery performance during singing is more eye-catching.

 As a man, Alexandrovich is very sure that beautiful women are also the pursuit of big men.

Martin thought for a while and said: "You write a detailed plan, and the Ukrainian company you established will operate the studio throughout the entire process."

 The person Martin knows best about the Ukrainian entertainment industry is Alexandrovich, and the reason is well known.

Alexandrovich said: "It goes even further, because members of the Holy Maiden Group must not only sing well, but also be beautiful enough and have a hot figure."

Alexandrovich had a complete plan before he came to find Martin: "The current 16th-generation Saints' Order has collapsed. I plan to form a 17th-generation Saints' Order. The three members will be adopted in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus." The selection will be carried out through a large-scale draft in other places, and the reputation of the Holy Maiden Group will definitely attract countless people to participate.”

He got to know Martin because of the carnival parties attended by many Ukrainian and Russian models and actresses. He had seen and heard many stories about Martin in Hollywood.

Alexandrovich looked at Martin and continued: "Their agency is involved in the corruption case in Kiev politics and may not be able to survive. I want to buy all the commercial ownership and song copyrights of the Saints and form a new organization. A new generation of saints."

"I brought the plan." Alexandrovich handed the plan and preliminary plan to Martin, and said: "I have become somewhat famous in Ukraine now. The pilot of "Servant of the People" has been very good. If this If the series is successful, I will become more famous in Ukraine and Russia, and I will serve as the host of the main venue."

 Martin nodded: "You have to take charge of this aspect yourself."

Seeing that Martin agreed, Alexandrovich quickly said: "Boss, if the time is right, can you serve as a judge for the finals?"

Martin said vaguely: "I can't be sure right now. We'll talk about it after we finalize the time."

“Okay.” After Alexandrovich finished speaking the business, he couldn't help but yawned: “Boss, I will return to Ukraine as soon as possible to run this new project.”

 Martin glanced at his watch: "Let's get some jet lag and rest."

 Alexandrovitch scratched his head: "Boss, I'll go to the hotel first."

 The door to the reception room is closed.

Bruce, who was sitting in the corner, said: "No wonder you admire this little Ukrainian guy so much. What he does is really to your liking."

 Martin seemed not to understand what he meant: "He is a person with many ideas. I hope we can get enough benefits from him."

Bruce didn't understand this time: "Even if a movie or a TV series is a hit in Ukraine, the income will be limited. The markets in Ukraine and Russia are not big." Martin shrugged: "Don't underestimate the Russian-speaking market. If this Saint Maiden Team Selection Competition is successfully implemented, it will make tens of millions of dollars in profit.”

For some reason, Bruce felt that a profit of tens of millions of dollars was not much.

 But then he slapped his head, as Martin was used to seeing profits of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars for a single project, so it was inevitable that he would have this kind of idea.

 Bruce knows very well that it is very rare for a company to make net profits of tens of millions of dollars every year.

 Martin packed his things, got up and went out.

Bruce followed from behind and said, "I heard that there are many women over there who have delicate faces and **** figures when they are young?"

Martin said: "It seems to be quite a lot."

 Bruce asked: "Where's the one with a body like Kim or Khloe?"

“You mean the one with a big butt, right?” Martin understood the bad guy like Old Bu's usual aesthetics: “Or bigger?”

Bruce responded: "Pretty much."

 Martin said seriously: "A lot, a lot."

  Russian aunts who appear to be in their decades, many are older than Kim Kardashian.

 Martin felt that it suited Lao Bu's appetite. After all, sitting down could squeeze out Lao Bu's overnight meal.

If you have the chance, you must help Bruce find a few more.

 Martin has always been a good brother to Bruce.

 The two came out of the "La La Land" studio and met Saoirse Ronan.

 She was just across the road, talking to a tall blonde woman.

This person has broad shoulders, a thick waist, and strong legs, comparable to Katherine Bigelow.

Saoirse also saw Martin and waved from across the road: "Teacher, I'm over here!"

 Martin passed the four-seater battery car, crossed the main road of the studio, and came to the opposite side.

The strong woman took the initiative to say hello: "Good afternoon, Martin, I am Greta Gerwig."

Saoirse added: "In addition to being an actress, Greta is also a screenwriter. She accepted the invitation from Disney Pictures to serve as the screenwriter of "Beauty and the Beast."

 Martin remembered that Alan Horn had chatted with him and said politely: "I've heard Alan mention you a long time ago, and he praised you very much."

Greta understood the investors behind the project and smiled: "You are all my boss."

 Because the time was close, Martin gradually remembered more things about her and said: "When the script is completed, remember to give me a copy."

Greta said: "This is my duty."

 She did not stay long, said goodbye to Martin and Saoirse, and left the studio.

 Martin asked Saoirse: "Have you known her for a long time?"

"It's been almost a month." Saoirse said simply: "She is friends with our choreographer Mandy Moore. After accepting the employment of Disney Pictures, she would sometimes come to the studio to ask Mandy Moore for advice on singing and dancing. , I have been rehearsing with Mandy Moore a few days ago, and I got to know her.”

 She asked: "Teacher, does Greta have a problem?"

 Martin shook his head and said half-truthfully: "I have heard many people talk about her. She is averagely talented as an actress, but she is very talented in script writing. She seems to have directed movies."

Saoirse said: "Yes, five of the scripts signed by Greta have been made into movies so far. In "40 Daydreams" released last year, she is both the screenwriter and the heroine."

  Martin understands the rules of the Screenwriters Guild and the Producers Union. Only two people can be signed in the screenwriter column of theatrical films. Being able to be signed as a screenwriter means that they must be one of the main creators of the script.

Saoirse added: "She directed a film alone in 2008."

 In Martin's memory, there is this female director and Saoirse Ronan. His appearance undoubtedly greatly affected the trajectory of Saoirse Ronan's life.

After thinking for a while, Martin said: "Since you are very familiar with her, if you build a good relationship with her in the future, someone like her who has served as a screenwriter and directed a feature film alone will definitely become a director in the future."

"Actors need to work with a good director!" Saoirse said: "Teacher, I listen to you and will definitely take care of the relationship with Greta."

She further said: "If Greta is an excellent director and has a good project, I will bring her to your studio."

 Martin couldn't help laughing: "You are the only one with many ideas."
