The next day was a weekend, and Matthew did not leave the manor. In the morning, he followed Liszt to check the trees replanted in the vestile woods, and welcomed a visitor in the afternoon.

"You updated your blog this morning and said you were going to hide at home and be lazy." Elena Poyal took the coffee handed over by the servant, thanked him first, and said to Matthew, "So I'll come here to see you."

Matthew asked, sitting on the wide sofa, "Is it really just coming to see me?"

Ilena Poyal didn't blush at all and said directly, "By the way, I'll ask if there is any exciting news."

"Didn't you publish the most exciting news during this period?" Matthew adjusted a more comfortable sitting posture, "a epoch-making boxing match, the worst director on the planet, the angry little treasure."

"I heard that he sent you an invitation letter? Are you going?" Ilena Poyal nodded when he saw Matthew nodding and asked, "Can you take me with you then?"

The invitation letter said that he could bring a female companion, and Matthew responded directly, "Yes." He then asked, "Wuwei Ball's directorial level is really as bad as you wrote?"

"Well... let's say that." Ilena Poyal pondered for a moment and said, "A reporter under my command once visited the set of Uvi Ball. He took the time to visit several staff members on the set and asked them that the things they had worked hard to make were big and bad movies. Don't you feel uneasy? Do you know how the crew members answered?"

Before Matthew could speak, she gave the answer herself, "They said no, because they would never see the movies they made."

Matthew was speechless for a moment. He really had the same director and crew as the same crew.

Ilena Poyal said again, "I got the news two days ago that Uvi Ball is in contact with Blizzard and is said to want to get the movie adaptation rights of the popular game "Warcraft" from Blizzard."

Matthew, the famous name of Warcraft, still knew it, shrugged and said, "Maybe Uvi Ball can make a different game adaptation movie."

Ilena Poyal took the lead in changing the topic and asked, "How is your negotiation with the crew of "I Am Legend"? When will the contract be officially signed?"

Matthew replied directly, "Helen is still talking to them, and it will probably take some time to reach an agreement."

"Then Helen and you should be more careful and be vigilant, and don't be stolen." Ilena Poyal reminded, "The news I got from Caa that Francis Lawrence, the director of "I am a Legend" has just fired his agent and will sign a formal brokerage contract with Caa recently."

"Really?" Matthew immediately became alert, "The news is right?"

Ilena Poyal has known Matthew for a year or two. They have been helping each other and benefiting each other, saying, "TMZ can get some news occasionally." She thought for a while, without touching on her own work secrets, and said, "Francis Lawrence and Caa have been hooked up for a while."

Matthew frowned. Will Smith is Caa's client. He and his agent had contacted Frances Lawrence some time ago.

"Thank you for the news, Elaine." Matthew said seriously.

"We are old friends." Elena Poyal smiled, "Don't be so polite."

Matthew nodded slightly and said, "I'll call Helen Hermann."

Ilena Boyal waved his hand casually, "You go, I'll take a look at your house. I haven't appreciated such a luxurious residence."

Matthew went to the reception room next to him and called Helen Hermann. It was the day before yesterday that Francis Lawrence fired the agent. She had just received the news, but she didn't know that Francis Lawrence had transferred to Caa's.

After a few minutes of talking, Matthew hung up the phone, called Elena Boyal, and rushed to the Angel Brokerage Company to discuss countermeasures with Helen Hermann.

In a conference room in the office building where Caa is located, Francis Lawrence sat next to the lawyer, listening to the lawyer answering several seemingly questionable terms in the contract. On the other side of him, two representatives of the director's union were sitting there, opposite Kevin Huo Weien, who was waiting patiently.

Soon, he will sign a formal brokerage contract with Caa under the witness and supervision of lawyers and director union representatives.

Caa's reputation and strength are well-known in Hollywood. With the support of Caa, many media have portrayed Caa into an omnipotent star-making machine. Whether it is an actor or a director, as long as you enter Caa, it seems that you will definitely succeed.

This has affected the choices of many people. Not to mention Francis Lawrence, even Matthew believes that Caa's strength in the Hollywood circle and the resources it can provide are difficult for other brokerage companies to match.

Even the veteran brokerage firm William Morris is slightly worse.

Moreover, Caa also has a series of big stars and big directors as signs. It is difficult for people who have ambitions in the circle and want greater room for development.

Since Will Smith and Kevin Van Horn have been in contact with him, Francis Lawrence has seriously considered their proposals and his future.

He used his previous agent from an advertising director to a Hollywood film industry. The agent was affiliated with a medium-sized agency. It was indeed enough to deal with advertising and MV directors, but in the film industry, he seemed to be incompetent.

In comparison, caa is much better.

Francis Lawrence believes that after joining Caa, he can gain more opportunities and better development.

"No problem." The lawyer's words rang in his ears, "You can sign a contract."

Hearing this, Francis Lawrence looked at the two representatives of the director's union, and nodded slightly taller, saying, "The contract is fully in line with the requirements of the union."

The lawyer and the union conducted cross-examination, and Francis Lawrence was relieved, took the signing pen, and signed his name on a triple contract.

After signing the contract, he handed one to his lawyer, the director's union took one as a record, and then Kevin Van Horn came over and shook his hands.

"Welcome to Caa," Kevin Huo Weien said enthusiastically to Francis Lawrence. "From today, Caa will provide you with the best and best brokerage services in the world."

Francis Lawrence smiled and said, "Happy cooperation."

The two of them politely said, Kevin Huo Weien sent the others away, and after only he and Francis Lawrence were left in the conference room, he said, "You should rest assured now, right?"

He actually knew very well that Frances Lawrence had never been willing to speak out on the crew about Will Smith's battle for the male lead, for this agency contract.

"I have always believed in you." Francis Lawrence seemed to be saying the truth, "The reason why it has been delayed until now is to prepare and wait for the right opportunity."

Will Smith and Kevin Huo Weien spoke beautifully at the time, but the short promises were the most unreliable. Only fools would believe in empty words. Caa is not a thing that has not done anything wrong.

Since Kevin Huo Weien put forward the conditions, he was waiting for Will Smith and Caa's sincerity.

Hollywood emphasizes transactions of hard work and rewards. Although Francis Lawrence believes that the whole of America and the entire Western world owe black people and is very interested in beautiful women among black people, he lacks interest in male black people like Will Smith and wants other substantial benefits.

Of course, he also knew very well that even if he was interested in Will Smith, he could not do anything. Compared with Will Smith, he was just a small director.

Kevin Huo Weien said, "Helen Herman is still negotiating with Aziva Gossman, and the progress between both sides is slow." He reminded, "I have also had contact with Aziva Gossman several times, and he is preparing to audition for Will."

"I know." Francis Lawrence carefully considered it, then said, "I, David Heyman and Aziva Gossman will all participate in this audition. I have a certain say. As long as Will performs well, your price is appropriate. In addition, I am on the crew, and I still have a considerable chance of winning the leading actor."

Kevin Huo Weien discovered it. Francis Lawrence had always emphasized the search for opportunities and difficulties. Now, once the agency contract was signed, it seemed like he had become a different person and seemed particularly confident.

He still believes that Francis Lawrence can influence the crew's choice to a certain extent. In most cases, the director's influence on a film is much greater than that of the actors. And according to the news he received, even if Matthew Horner reached an agreement with the crew, he was only the male lead, and Aziva Gossman did not intend to let him join the producer's team.

In this way, the director's innate professional advantages are easier to reflect.

"There is another point, I want to say hello to you in advance." Francis Lawrence's appetite is much bigger than Kevin Huo Weien imagined. "In this project, there is an important female supporting role. Will win the male lead, and I hope he can support me in choosing Paula Patton in this role."

This is a familiar name. Kevin Huo Weien quickly remembered that this is a black actress. In "The Enemy of the People" starring Will Smith, she played a small supporting role.

Then, he remembered what Beyoncé said before, and it seemed that Francis Lawrence was really a white-skinned person.

Francis Lawrence's words were not finished yet, and he said, "I can't guarantee that Will will win the leading role 100%."

"I understand." Kevin Huo Weien nodded.

No one can fully guarantee this kind of thing. Various unexpected situations in the circle often happen, otherwise they would not have come to compete for the male lead.
