Ace Hollywood

Chapter 167: Division of Labor (Part 1)

phone-reading

When Ferguson hurried in, Daniel's team, except for Fred, who was now basically on his own, was there.

Because Daniel is developing too fast, although this team also has a simple division of labor, it is not clear enough. Daniel himself is used to doing many things himself, but now his energy does not allow Daniel to do so, so let's re-divide everyone's responsibilities, yes Imminent things.

Just now in the Kusa car, Daniel closed his eyes and thought about it. In fact, he had been thinking about these things all the time, but he just didn't take the time to do it.

Looking at these partners as he became the top part of Hollywood's various industries, Daniel felt a lot of emotion.

The hourly salary of Hollywood star assistants is about 10 US dollars, and the working hours are increased, and the weekly salary is only less than 1,000 US dollars, and the monthly salary is about 5,000. But Andy's adjusted monthly salary has approached 80,000 US dollars. This price is definitely higher than others in the same industry. Even some assistants who have cooperated with some veteran stars for 20 to 30 years do not have this price. And Cusa and Melissa have long been the leading agents in CAA. If Melissa is still to grow up, then Cusa is definitely worth talking to the heads of the production departments of major studios. Big broker; Triver is also enviable in the PR industry, where client resources are highly valued, both in terms of income and power. Even Ferguson, who has just joined, has been completely different since he became the producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean". Friends of the same level at the time are now standing out from the crowd.

There is an old Chinese saying, "When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven." This is not all irony. Indeed, the success of one person can often lead to the success of a group of people. The most notable examples are those Silicon Valley companies, which, once listed, often create dozens or hundreds of millionaires.

However, not every one of these people is qualified for the current job, or suitable for the current division of labor.

Like Cusa and Fred. People who can continue to adapt to rising levels of communication and deal with more and more complex matters, finding two in this initial team is pretty good.

In addition, Andy, the cousin of Cusa, is actually very capable, but lacks a little flexibility and organization in the schedule. Daniel's busyness during this time has something to do with the lack of scheduling ability of himself and his assistants. And Melissa is dealing with external things. For example, in event engagement, endorsement negotiations, and some follow-up work, they also showed inconsistent abilities. This girl who grew up under the wing of old Drake is actually not so suitable for dealing with people who specialize in negotiation and communication. .

Aside from the two ladies, Cusa was free to consider bringing in new clients—even though the money he made from Daniel was more than ten like Scarlett. And Triver also began to stagnate in the process of integrating into the team. This has nothing to do with his own wishes, just because his division of labor in Daniel's team is too narrow, and only for that. will remember him.

This kind of team is not coordinated, with more and more tasks, higher and higher levels, tens of millions of contracts at every turn, and dealings with first-class newspaper websites, it is inevitable that some problems will arise. Combined with a boss who likes to take care of things, it's not surprising that the team becomes unsustainable. Daniel realized early today. In fact, it is a very lucky thing, which can prevent some people from making mistakes, because at that time, there may be no way to turn a blind eye, and the feelings of cooperation for several years will all be empty.

The entire small hall was silent, and everyone realized that today was a matter of life. It's not just Daniel. There were other people on the team who were aware of the problem, but it was hidden in the rapid development and change, and no one brought it up.

"To call everyone together today, in fact, I hope to re-divide the labor. Some people need to add more burdens, and some people need to adjust their work. In addition, a few people need to be added. There are more and more things, and it is not enough to rely on a few of you. Use it." Daniel said bluntly, "After all, this is also a team with an annual output value of hundreds of millions."

Only Ferguson had a look of shock on his face, and everyone else, including Triver, knew more or less about Daniel's financial investments—that was a big investment. If he just wanted to pursue wealth, Daniel should put all his energy into that job.

"I still remember when I met Cusa at the coffee shop." Daniel looked at Cusa, his eyes dimmed, recalling the original scene, "I was just turned away by Tracy Jacobs. Also, I know, you're all curious about that rumor, yes, Melissa introduced me to Tracy when she was Tracy's assistant. But then because Johnny Depp blocked it, I I don't want to be restricted, so I just broke up. At this time, Cusa came to find me. I remember you met me at the audition site of a certain movie?"

""Death is Coming", Ellie Larter introduced it to you."

"Oh yes, "Death is Coming", Ellie, Ellie taught me a lot. Then I was convinced by Kusa, we became partners, how many people now say we are golden partners and achieve each other. But At that time, it was just a Hollywood rookie with a lost future and a small CAA agent with no money, both of whom had dreams and were determined to give everything to succeed."

Everyone looked at Daniel intently and listened to him tell the beginning of his legendary experience.

"The role of Legolas, you've heard that meme. I played a little trick with Cusa at the time. We were originally going to try another role—"

"Because Daniel insisted that Legolas was the more suitable role, obviously, he was right," Cusa took his words.

Daniel chuckled, "Yes, I'm right, at least hundreds of millions of people around the world call me the Elf Prince. Then came "Gladiator", this battle was very hard, if it wasn't for Melissa's father With Drake's help, I can't get the Commodius role anyway. Opposite is Philip, the agent of Matt Damon and Ben Afflac, who got the Oscar at the time, and Jay. Quinn Phoenix - River Phoenix's younger brother. We played a lot of tricks, some of which were insane. It wasn't until we finally convinced Ridley Scott that we became the second male lead in this work, I You all know what I got with it, a bunch of outpost awards, plus the Golden Globes and Oscars. You all know the next thing, I have received a lot of films, and they all performed well, so I am who I am today. Three Entering the 20 million club every year, the whole Hollywood has never had it, this is my legend, and it belongs to you."

Even Cusa Damon has a frenzied expression on his face at this moment, yes, Daniel has become a legend - three years, Oscar, A-list, 20 million club, every achievement The achievement of his achievement adds a brick to his path to legend.

"However, friends, now we need to make some changes. Everyone should do the work that is more suitable for them, and should not be the same." Daniel glanced at Kusa and nodded, "I'm initially sure I took a look at everyone's new division of labor, and Kusa told everyone about it, if you have different opinions, you can put it up."

Cusa coughed, drawing his attention.

"Ferguson—"

The newcomer whose name was called straightened his back. He knew that he had encountered the greatest luck in his life. If he could gain recognition and join the most eye-catching team in Hollywood, then his future, money, power and status would will no longer be a problem. He thought of the way his girlfriend Grey looked at Daniel when he saw Daniel in DD that day, as if looking at a hero.

It felt so good, no woman had ever looked at him like that.

Thinking of this, he looked at Cusa a lot more eagerly.

"In addition to your work as a producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean", you need to maintain a Daniel Investment Division in DD Films, which has no permanent staff except one or two civilian staff. If necessary, it is up to you to The studio and other departments of DD Films contacted, responsible for allocating staff and arranging work. Do you understand? Is there a problem?"

"I think no, yes, there would be no problem."

Kusa nodded to indicate that he understood, then looked at Melissa, "Merry, your next job will be in charge of Daniel's film investments, such as "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Hotel Rwanda" and "My Greek Wedding". People's work, Daniel will be deeply involved in the project "Greek Wedding", but in the future more Daniel's independent investment projects need you to follow up, and Ferguson is directly responsible for you. I think you are suitable for this role, you Have great transactional skills, attentive enough, and have complete industry knowledge and insight. … In addition to that, you'll need access to Daniel's legal and accounting staff. Finally, I'd like to congratulate you, you're getting a raise ."

Melissa was a little apprehensive~www.novelmt.com~ After all, this was a new job, but from Kusa's tone, there was no room for refusal. Besides, she is not a character who fears problems.

"Then do you need me to treat you?"

"Of course, when we finish the meeting."

"It's you now, Trevor, you've done a great job, solved a lot of trouble for Daniel, and made a lot of friends and relationships. So Daniel hopes that you can give up part of your outside work and get more involved with Daniel What is your opinion? You know you are free after all."

"It's like we've already sold our bodies, but I haven't received any money." Melissa muttered on the side, which caused everyone to laugh and relieved the slightly tense atmosphere.

After laughing, Triver nodded and agreed without much thought. He was actually in an awkward stage. Daniel had a lot of business, and he didn't have the energy to find another big client, while some small clients mostly pointed at him as Daniel. It came from the identity of public relations, which again violated his professional ethics. Being able to simply be part of Daniel's team now is a more satisfying arrangement anyway.
