After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood

Chapter 12:

To put it bluntly, a few million dollars is not enough for him to directly give up the talented director Kevin. He also hopes that the two sides will continue to cooperate.

And Shay’s answer made Kevin very satisfied.

As the boss of a large and medium-sized film company in Hollywood, he doesn’t have the general short-sightedness of Huayi Brothers towards Director Zhou.

The party was full of handsome men and women that Kevin knew or didn’t know. Of course, there were also some middle-aged and elderly white elite men.

Their identities can be seen from their appearance.

99% of handsome men and beautiful women are star actors, while middle-aged and elderly white men are either executives of film companies, executives of those funds, or directors.

These people constitute a series of cycles of investors, directors, actors and distribution, that is to say, they are the upper echelons of Hollywood.

Some can keep appearing in such parties, while others can only participate in this one time.

Kevin looked at the delicious food and wine on the table, and his appetite suddenly increased. He found a tray, picked a few steaks that seemed to be very meaty, and took a glass of juice and tasted it.

…

“Look at that person, come here as if he’s never eaten anything, look at his food?”

The two models made fun of Kevin.

In this party, the lowest status are those beautiful models.

In the modeling industry, the middle class is actually the most beautiful. Once you reach the top, you have very special and demanding requirements for your body appearance.

All in all, it definitely does not belong to the industry of big beauties in the eyes of ordinary people.

Therefore, these middle-class models, the best industry switch, is to become a member of Hollywood, and they most want to be a member of Hollywood stars with beauty.

And this kind of party, the reception is their best chance.

The organizer of the party will also deliberately let some beautiful models in each party to liven up the atmosphere. After all, Hollywood female stars are far from enough to meet the needs of the men who come to this party.

Chapter 19 The Active Angelina Jolie

Of course, this is a kind of exchange of what you need.

Models give their bodies, and they give their resources.

Hearing the mocking words of the two model friends beside her, Angelina Jolie beside her saw something different.

It’s not so easy for male stars to get into this party.

Throughout the venue, in addition to Kevin, there are more or less handsome male stars, she has a little impression, all of them have the existence of famous works.

And Kevin is so unfamiliar.

And the clothes on Kevin are not too expensive.

All this made Kevin a very special existence. Angelina Jolie, who had the idea that Kevin might be a special existence, ignored the two friends who were laughing at him.

Julie adjusted her smile and stepped closer to Kevin.

“Bah, this little bitch, Bi Chi, wants to get a bargain again?”

“Hmph, I don’t even think about being here. At this age, I’m not a big star, so I can have any resources.”

The two female models just smiled disdainfully and continued to look for prey who were interested in their bodies in the party.

…..

“Hello, I’m Angelina Jolie, I’m a little curious to see you eating… steak here alone.”

Angelina Jolie generously used curiosity as an excuse and leaned over.

Angelina Jolie?

In Kevin’s mind, countless of her future achievements suddenly appeared in her mind, but it seems that she is still just a model at this time?

“Hi, my name is Steve Kevin.”

Angelina Jolie immediately made a dissatisfied expression, as if to express her dissatisfaction with Kevin for not revealing his specific identity.

At the age of twenty-five, at the peak of her life, she made this expression not only without dissatisfaction.

Instead, she felt like she was acting like a spoiled child.

Kevin then said slowly:

“I’m a director, and the recently released Chainsaw is exactly what I do.”

Angelina Jolie’s eyes lit up, and Chainsaw was the most shining movie at this time. The production cost of 1.3 million yuan created a good result of over 40 million US dollars at the box office in the first week.

Its director is actually the handsome guy in front of him.

Has she caught a big fish this time?

“So you are the director of Chainsaw Horror!”

“I have seen it. The movie is really wonderful. I don’t know if I have that luck. I will talk with you carefully in the hotel about how it was made in your hands.”

Kevin raised his eyebrows, quite direct.

Just like what Ovitz said, he just revealed that he is the director of a movie with a good box office, and someone came to the door so directly.

If he were a normal model, he would definitely not accept it.

But this is Angelina Jolie, and she is still at the peak of her beauty…

As if feeling that Kevin was looking at herself, Angelina Jolie flipped her long hair and put on the most attractive angle that she had practiced a thousand times in front of the mirror.

In Kevin’s eyes, it was Angelina Jolie who put on a very seductive angle.

This instantly moved him.

Especially Angelina Jolie has the bonus of future big star status, which makes him feel more exciting.

Feeling his own mind, Kevin immediately responded:

“Of course, that’s my pleasure.”

….

Harvey Weinstein, one of the most successful independent filmmakers in Hollywood in the future, one of the two founders of Miramax Films.

From this point of view, he is undoubtedly very successful.

Of course, his other reputation is even more eloquent, the biggest criminal in Hollywood.

In 2017, as many as eight Hollywood actresses accused him of being strong.

He ended up being jailed for 23 years.

Of course, in the eyes of insiders, Harvey Weinstein was not rape, but coercion.

But the biggest problem is that he didn’t deliver on his promises.

In other words, he was a man who didn’t keep his promises.

This led to the occurrence of the things that were accused of being strong.

This kind of thing is definitely not an isolated case in Hollywood, it’s just that most people get what they want, so it doesn’t happen.

Those who dare to break such rules in this way will naturally have no good results in the end.

Harvey Weinstein looked up and looked at the two little models beside him talking about others.

Then suddenly he said:

“He’s not a nobody, he’s the director of Chainsaw!”

After all, Harvey Weinstein got rid of the two little models and leaned towards Kevin.

There is no shortage of people in Hollywood who want to find Kevin. Unexpectedly, Kevin appeared alone at this party.

As a greedy predator, he is always very interested in directing this kind of prey.

Taking the benefits from their hands makes him more happy than sleeping with actresses.

“Hello Director Kevin, I’m Harvey Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein of Miramax Pictures.”

With a sense of pride, Harvey Weinstein approached Kevin and introduced himself forcefully.

There was a sense of confidence in his tone that no one didn’t know him.

Kevin frowned. He and Angelina Jolie were having a good time talking, and had made an appointment to talk about the luminous script of Chainsaw in the quilt in the hotel for a while.

Just being interrupted so strongly by this person made Kevin, who had been smooth sailing recently, somewhat unhappy.

“Have not heard!”

Kevin answered bluntly.

Of course he knows Harvey Weinstein. As a director, he still knows some big international figures.

But it was against him that he did not keep his promises, liked to lower prices, and used some despicable means to buy out foreign films.

Kevin didn’t like him instinctively.

To put it bluntly, Kevin is orderly and abiding by the rules, and doesn’t like to communicate with people who break the rules.

As for being afraid of him, that’s even more nonsense.

As a director who has never failed, even the five major Hollywood film companies and the six major film companies in the future may not be able to treat him well.

As long as he can make money for others, he will always be at the top of the Hollywood food chain.

He doesn’t have to care about anyone’s face, he can do whatever he wants.

Harvey Weinstein froze.

In a split second he found an excuse for Kevin not knowing he was.

That’s Steve Kevin, a rookie director who is dedicated to making movies and doesn’t even know big names in Hollywood.

If you think about it, it makes sense.

With this in mind, Harvey Weinstein continued:

“Miramax Films is a film company specializing in distributing unpopular art films for the Hollywood Oscars.”

“Do you want your next movie to win an Oscar?”

Harvey Weinstein looked bright.

Chapter 20 Revealing the news, Kevin ready to make a fortune

The Oscars have a great allure for every director and every actor.

Every time Harvey Weinstein came up with these words, no director could refuse his words, and finally put his movie contract in his hands.

For the award, Harvey Weinstein has a lot of experience.

Unlike other directors who attach great importance to Oscar, he regards Chong Ao as a public relations art.

If you want to get an Oscar, there is a certain guarantee of quality, that is, if the movie is not completely exploded by the same period of time.

He needs to conquer the hundreds of Oscar judges as much as possible.

He has plenty of experience in this regard.

With these experiences, he can always let those directors sell their films to him at the lowest price, or reach a cooperation with him at a very low price.

It is also impossible for the young man in front of him to refuse this temptation.

“Okay, I get it now.”

Kevin just looked calm.

The calm expression made Harvey Weinstein feel that his eloquent words had failed.

Harvey Weinstein once again affirmed:

“Don’t you want to win the Oscar for Best Director? Don’t you want to be the youngest Oscar director?”

“In no mood.”

Another sentence from Kevin directly interrupted all Harvey Weinstein’s words.

“Okay, you’re fine.”

Harvey Weinstein glanced at Kevin and Angelina Jolie next to him, as if he wanted to keep these two people firmly in his eyes.
