Bill McNick frowned slightly and said displeased: "Jamie, calm down! What did you do as the director of "Titanic", don't you know it yourself?"
Cameron knew that Fox Pictures now So Bill McNick was grateful and prepared to leave at any time, but what he couldn't bear was letting an 18-year-old kid with no experience in directing take his place!
"Bill, I know you have taken a lot of pressure for me. I am grateful and agreed to quit the director job. But...but we can't ruin this movie!"
Cameron spent money on this movie. With painstaking effort, I started writing scripts in 1991, and started project preparations in 1994. It took two years to formally start shooting.
He loves this project more than anyone else, and he doesn't want his years of hard work to be lost.
Bill McNick made a few more pressing gestures and sighed, "Calm down, Jamie, calm down. Little Dunn is indeed a little younger, but I believe he can do the job."
Dunn saw the needle. Loudly said: "Of course! "Titanic" is a great project, I will do my best to write a great legend for this great project!"
Grant Hillzan said: "Little Dunn, said Good!"
Bill McNick also laughed: "Young man, you have a gift for speeches."
Cameron sneered, "Even if it is eloquent, it can't hide his mediocrity and incompetence in director talent!"
Dunn said to the card. Mellon has always respected, but he couldn't stand his continuous provocations. He endured his anger and said: "Mr. Cameron, you say I am mediocre and incompetent, then tell me, if you continue to direct you, you can guarantee the success of the project. Is it?"
Movies are a high-yield, high-risk industry. Who can guarantee stable profits without loss?
"You can't guarantee, but I can!" Dunn patted his chest and said vowedly.
Cameron sarcastically said: "You guarantee? What guarantee do you have? How big is your investment in directing this project? To recover the cost, the global box office will cost at least 500 million US dollars!"
Now Cameron is only a quasi-first-line director. "The Lie" has a box office of more than 300 million, and 500 million US dollars is still an astronomical figure for him.
"500 million dollars? Haha!" Dunn laughed disdainfully, and said coldly, "A mere 500 million dollars, what is it?"
"Boy, arrogant!" Cameron exclaimed.
Bill McNick glanced at him displeasedly, and said earnestly: "Young man, confidence is a good thing, but don't speak big words, it is very bad for you."
Dunn doesn't care. Brother is a rebirth, even this point of bragging. Don't you have the capital to pretend to be?
"Mr. McNick, you are misunderstood. The $500 million box office...In my opinion, it is just a conservative estimate of the North American box office!" Dunn raised his head and instantly became the focus of the office.
"The North American box office of 500 million US dollars? What are you talking about?" Cameron grinned, "Who do you think you are? Spielberg? Even Spielberg can't reach this number!"
"Steve?" Dunn shook his head calmly, "So, Mr. Cameron, you are too small! Is Mr. Spielberg a god? Can't it be surpassed?"
"Bill , Do you really think that this unaware brat can make "Titanic" well?" Cameron asked angrily.
Bill McNick furrowed his brows, squinted his eyes, and stared at Dunn carefully. After a long silence, he asked in a deep voice, "You said that the North American box office can reach 500 million U.S. dollars. In your opinion, the global box office has How much can it be achieved?"
"1.5 billion is the bottom line, 2 billion is the goal!"
Dunn's words sounded like thunder!
"Okay!" Bill McNick praised, "I haven't seen an ambitious young man like you in many years. I remember the last time I met... it was Steve Spielberg before shooting ET."
Cameron's face sank with an ominous premonition.
"Grant, prepare the contract. It should not be too late. Let's sign with Mr. Dunn Walker!"
"Bill..."
"Enough!" Bill McNick waved his hand, "Jamie, this is my decision!"
The decision of the top leader is beyond doubt!
Dunn smacked of sweat secretly, sighed with relief, with a satisfied smile on his face.
It succeeded!
It really succeeded!
Magic sunglasses, cheating Hollywood!
This is awesome!
According to the California Talent Act, actors must have an agent present when signing a contract.The director is not included here because he will also be a producer.
What Dunn stole was James Cameron's director contract, and the contract salary naturally followed Cameron's standards.
A base salary of US$5 million, plus a 10% global box office share!
"Titanic, hello."
"Hollywood, I'm coming!"
Dunn wrote his name on the contract crookedly, shouting and energetic.
