Chapter 885 (1/2)

At this year's Sundance Film Festival, although a large group of famous filmmakers in memory fell into Simon's eyes, Simon did not have much contact with other people except for attending several premieres and chatting with the wodrowski brothers at a theme party of the festival in the evening.

Whether it's Christopher Nolan or Doug Riemann, they're still rookies.

The result is not always good.

For example, Jon feru, a grassroots filmmaker from the bottom of Hollywood, has become one of the core creators of Marvel's film universe. One of the most important reasons is that he has been in this circle for more than ten years and has accumulated profound film skills for a long time. His abundant experience has made him a director, actor, screenwriter and producer I'm good at everything.

Not only Jon Farrow, but also Christopher Nolan, Doug Riemann, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, who are familiar with all aspects of film making, have a solid foundation and can go on for a long time in the film industry.

The wodrowski brothers are a counterexample.

Once upon a time, after the wodrowski brothers finished their first work ”crazy flowers”, grace NOW deserves it.

Backed by the support of Westeros system, grace not only grasped the top customers of elite, such as Cindy Crawford, Linda Ivan gelinsta, Claudia Schiffer, etc., but also successfully reformed the structure of elite. Even those who are not familiar with the modeling agency industry clearly want to innovate a company that can't afford to lose What a difficult thing it is.

Grace managed to do it.

Now elite is similar to Hollywood CAA.

This is also the result of Simon's personal promotion.

In order to help grace carry out structural reform, Simon also introduced Michael owitz to each other. In Simon's face, owitz spared no effort in guiding grace, and the two companies also established some cooperative relations.

As a result, with continuous operation, elite now, because the contracts of all customers have been transferred from a single agent to the company, no matter who leaves in the future, even grace herself, can no longer take away a large number of customers like other modeling agencies.

It seems that the power is decentralized, but in fact, as long as grace does not leave elite, she is the queen of the modeling giant.

As the president of elite, she has absolute power, including the decision to hire or fire any agent or model under elite. If other agents want to do so, they need Grace's approval, which is more reliable than Grace's holding a large number of model contracts in her own hands when she first started to take over power, and it will not cause the company's concern Strong rebound from other brokers.

The new contract adds a lot of restrictive clauses, increases the amount of default, and makes it more difficult for those models to change jobs. As like as two peas in the Hollywood, Grace's position in the model brokerage industry is exactly the same as Michael Ovitz, who is the first person in the power list of Hollywood for many years.

Unfortunately, once Michael owitz made a wrong choice. He voluntarily gave up his power and wanted to go further, but he lost everything. Later, he wanted to return to the brokerage industry and found that even he could not shake the status of CAA, so he had to retire.

Even two years ago, grace never thought that she could have everything she has now. Women also know why she can get these things. Without Simon's strong support, the reform of elite would not have been successful at all. In addition, she has feelings for a little man in private, so she has no ambition like owitz. She only plans to stick to the leadership of elite He helped Simon manage the company well.

Because of this change in elite, the elite European team, which used to be almost independent in Europe, is completely controlled by grace.

The advent of the information age makes this remote control very convenient.

After the reform, elite's customers want to get more jobs, so it is inevitable to have a good relationship with a female boss.

On the other hand, Simon is the only one who can suppress grace, even Apollo management, which nominally holds elite shares, does not have such power.

So Carla Bruni was right when she said she wanted to flatter Simon.

As long as she gets the support of this man, she will be able to get more resources than elite.
