Chapter 25: Hollywood, Hollywood

Having arranged the homework of this group of guys, William White intends to continue his journey.

In this era, there are very limited industries to choose from, and traditional industries are simply impossible. Apart from Silicon Valley, Hollywood is also a good choice.

There are not only a few giants here, but also countless independent producers. Some companies are directly affiliated to the giants, and some adopt a cooperative distribution model. There are not many such companies, unless you have the level of Lucas , the film company has no temper.

Apart from these, I’m afraid it’s special action movies. This market is also very large. The United States is like this. There are audiences for any type of movie. As long as your movie is good, art movies and horror movies can also make money.

William White obviously does not have these resources. If he enters Hollywood, he must start small and slowly accumulate popularity and resources.

No one dares to think about the Titanic as soon as they come up. You can't play this kind of big production at all, and it's impossible even if you have money.

For a newcomer to set foot in this field, it is very good to have a production fee of one or two million US dollars. These are all talented people, so don't worry about ordinary directors. Let's start with some commercials and documentaries. It may take many years to get a chance.

William White didn't need to wait. His software company had more than two million yuan in his account, and the next batch of money was about to come. He didn't care about the two or three million yuan.

Making movies has always been the dream of my young master. For this matter, William White quarreled with his father many times. In the end, he studied two majors at the same time at USC, which was also the result of a compromise between father and son.

The young master is now saying that he wants to make a movie, but it is only a small-budget movie, and Uncle Forbe will not stop it. At most, he will lose a few million. It might be a heartache a month ago, but he doesn't care too much now.

The speed at which White's software makes money is like printing beautiful knives, but Forber knows very well that the cost of software is really very limited.

According to this state and then sell for a period of time, those taxes will be no problem, and there may be a lot of surplus.

Besides, the young master's movie may not lose money, even if it loses a little money, it's no big deal, and it will get back part of it.

Movies can be shot in Hollywood, but the company cannot be registered in Hollywood. There are several tax-free states in the United States. Of course, it is better to hide.

But he doesn't need to take care of these things, the lawyer will help him handle everything, and in this way, everything is ready to test the waters of Hollywood.

There are so many such companies in Hollywood that no one pays attention to them. Every day such companies are established and every day such companies close down.

"Jason, I plan to go to Los Angeles in two days."

"Boss, you are planning to go back to school."

"No, I'm going to take a break from school, and this time I'm going to Los Angeles to make a movie."

"Boss, are you really fake? Do you still lack a male pig's foot? I am quite suitable. At most, I will not receive a salary."

"Most extras, like to do it or not, two lines."

"Do it, why not, this is my dream."

"You are from the director department. Is it interesting to be an actor? I really admire you."

"No one wants a little director, I will make commercials first in the future."

"Whatever you want, I'll contact you when you arrive."

"Okay, come back quickly!"

"Um"

Jason Gao in his previous life later started an advertising company. It seems that no one asked him to make a movie.

It is difficult for Chinese directors to mix in the United States. Unless you grew up in the United States, you really don’t understand what their cool points are. Although Lao Mei’s jokes are relatively low, there are too many sources of these memes. You are not in the local area. Growing up, I don't know, so it's normal.

This is the case with talk shows and sitcoms. Lao Mei is very happy to watch, but the crooked nuts don’t know why, just watching a group of fools go crazy.

The mansion in Beverly was only rented, and now William doesn't have any spare dollars, so careful budgeting is still very important.

The sky here is always so blue, which makes people feel very good. It doesn’t matter how good the air is, there is also smog here. It rarely rains in Los Angeles, and the sky is clear almost every day.

The weather is fine today. This is a standard nonsense in Los Angeles. If you greet someone like this, you will definitely be despised.

Film companies gather here, and the weather is also the main reason. What kind of Hollywood are you going to do in London. It is estimated that I can only rest for half a year. The things that are photographed are generally gray.

Hollywood's studio system is still very good so far, and it is very commercialized. It seems that anyone with any capital can enter.

You have to look at the surface, all this seems very beautiful, people with dreams will always succeed, as long as you work hard, you will always be recognized.

But this is not the case. Monopoly is ubiquitous here. It is easy for foreign capital to come in. It is just a dream to get out of it.

Just like the financial field, this place also pays attention to inheritance. The Jewish consortium controls the entire Hollywood. If you want to avoid being targeted, it is best to choose cooperation.

William White didn't want to join forces with them, but he also didn't want to be hostile to them, so keeping a low profile became the only choice.

"Forbe, let someone take it to the Screenwriters Guild for the record, and we will start recruiting."

"Okay, master."

In this way, William White began to build his grass-roots team. There are too many such stupid and bold big dogs in Hollywood, and they have not attracted any attention at all.

There are dozens of such movies every year, many of which cannot be released at all, and the money invested is naturally lost.

It would be wrong to say that no one paid attention at all. As soon as his script was filed, it immediately attracted the attention of the Screenwriters Guild.

Those who engage in screenwriting are usually young men, and reading skills are naturally indispensable. If you haven't read Forrest Gump, you are obviously not suitable for the job of screenwriting.

The adaptation of this book into a movie does not require much modification, and the ability to control the text is very strong. Even if some people disagree, it is not a big problem to refer to it.

It was widely rumored that a film company planned to spend millions of dollars to purchase the adaptation rights. Although it was not known whether it was true or not, the news was shocking enough.

The purchasing power of millions of dollars now is very high, and the luxury villa that William White rents is only around a million dollars.

It is hard to say how much the film company bid. It is well known that William White refused, but what is going on with the script here today? Same name?

What the hell is White Films?

I have never heard of such a telecommunications company.

The two guys who came to file the case were obviously not William White himself. Judging by their slick appearance, 99% of them were lawyers.

A movie company as big as Sesame Mung Bean, where there is money to hire legal consultants, when they sign a contract, they usually hire a lawyer temporarily, and it is often the cheapest one.

What's the situation now, it's just a simple filing, just send your assistant and secretary, there's no need to find a lawyer!

This William White might really be that writer, no wonder he didn't sell the adaptation rights, he planned to get involved in the film industry himself.
