Hollywood Drawing

Watching Naomi study the script, Wayne took out the prepared project plan. Tomorrow he will send it to 20th Century Fox together with the script and see how they react.

His first choice is definitely Fox. By cooperating with a Hollywood giant, there are very few chores to worry about. His main focus will be on the film. The only thing he needs to worry about is the right to participate in the post-production, but these can be resolved through negotiation.

In fact, in Hollywood, only a small number of directors have post-production rights. Having the right to make late-stage suggestions shows that the film company has great respect for the director. After all, this industry has always been a producer-centered system.

If most directors don't put on shackles, their attitude towards making films is definitely to wander around, and it's not uncommon for the final film to last 180 minutes. The biggest purpose of a film company in producing and distributing films is to make a profit, not to allow the director to make any personal films.

Therefore, producers will limit the director's desires. Most directors are just filming machines. After shooting all the shots, the work is over. Post-production and editing are issues that producers should worry about.

Early the next morning, under the leadership of his agent Jimmy, he walked into the Fox Building again and handed the project plan and script to Townsend Rothman. After getting the assurance from the other party that they would go to the meeting for review as soon as possible, Wayne came to the car dealership.

Yes, he felt that it was time to retire the pickup truck he had driven for four years. Now that he had the financial means, he was ready to change to a car he liked.

Under the salesman's promotion, he finally chose a Cadillac. This brand is simply a national brand for North America.

He has thought about choosing a sports car or a muscle car to realize his dream of being a diaosi in his previous life. The price of such a car here is impressively cheap. But now he is really not suitable for such a flamboyant car. In the end, after the salesman's introduction, he chose the mature and stable Cadillac.

Give Jimmy the keys to the pickup truck, and he will help hire someone to return to the farm. Wayne drives the new car and goes to Beverly to order a new suit. He wants to prepare for the graduation ceremony.

In mid-June 1991, Wayne put on new clothes and drove to USC. After parking the car, he strolled through this youthful environment. All he saw were peers wearing bachelor's uniforms and accompanied by their families.

And his mother Anna also promised him that she would come to his graduation ceremony. He also wanted to be a child who could show off his achievements to his parents. However, when he entered the campus again, he discovered that after more than half a year of social work practice, his mentality had changed. , and become less excited about small achievements.

When he walked to the classroom where he had been for several years, everyone had a smile on their face. He suddenly felt that he was so out of tune with everyone. Although he didn't have many friends before, now he seemed to be watching another group of people having a carnival.

"Hi Wayne, congratulations on the success of your video."

"Congratulations, Wayne, we all went to see your work and you did a great job!"

"Way Wayne, you're ahead of everyone."

Just as Wayne walked into the classroom, he received many blessings from people, which made him a little awkward. Responding to the enthusiasm of his classmates one by one, he sat in his seat and finally touched the chair he had sat on for more than three years.

"Oh my god, baby, why haven't you changed your clothes yet? Look, your classmates are already ready." Just as he was recalling his campus memories, Anna walked in, took her son's hand, and asked him to hurry up. Change into academic uniform.

"Oh, mom, don't worry, it's still early." Wayne reluctantly walked into the dressing room holding his clothes.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the graduation ceremony was held in the auditorium. With the blessing of his mother, Wayne received a degree certificate from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, School of Film and Television and the Arts, majoring in film and video.

He did not take photos with his classmates, which was not in line with his character. He just said goodbye to Professor Andreessen Horowitz and walked out of the campus with his mother.

"Mom, wait for me in the car. I forgot something and I have to go back." The car was already on fire, but he suddenly remembered something, said something to Anna, got out of the car and hurried away Back to the square.

Among a group of young people who kept taking photos with their families, Wayne accurately found Adam Goodman. Without any hesitation, he walked up to the other party.

His arrival surprised several people who were happily taking photos, but Adam knew why the other person came.

"Wayne, you are very lucky. I didn't expect you to be able to get out like this. But don't worry, I don't believe you can be so lucky every time." Before he could speak, Adam Goodman gave him a malicious look. Looking at this opponent, he opened his mouth and started taunting in a sinister manner.

But Wayne didn't care what he said, he just stared at a middle-aged white man behind Adam. "Mr. Phelan Goodman, I came here to tell you that my new project is about to start. You are welcome to continue to snipe me. Well, that's it."

After saying that, with the puzzled eyes of the other party, he looked at Adam and said directly in front of his parents: "Adam, you know, I have never regarded you as a rival. In my eyes, you are just a spoiled child. . But what you did is so disgusting. I came back here to tell you that if you do something wrong, you will pay the price!"

After saying that, with everyone looking at him in disbelief, he hit Adam in the face with a hard uppercut.

“oh my god!!!”

"Security, security!"

"Mother fxxker! What did you do!"

Wayne stood still, while Adam's mother held her son with a bloody nose and shouted for security. Phelan Goodman walked up to him and looked at him seriously.

"Boy, I don't know what the conflict is between you and Adam, but I promise you will pay the price." Fearon Goodman looked at Wayne, who was slightly taller than him, and tapped him with his hand, but his words were not Mood swings.

"Really? Do you need me to wait here for the police to come? This is just the beginning, Mr. Goodman, go and sue me. There are no secrets in this circle. My "Happy Death Day" sold for nearly 30 million U.S. dollars, and I am ready to give it all. I'll file a lawsuit with you.

Believe me! I'm going to find a dream team of lawyers and what do you think I'm going to do? I hope you are rich enough to play this game with me. "

Wayne was very sure that even if the other party was a Universal executive whose annual salary in this era was only a few hundred thousand dollars at most, he would definitely be able to drag him to death until he went bankrupt and liquidated. If you want to ask the best way for wealthy people in North America to seek revenge, it is undoubtedly to file a lawsuit.

He himself believes that he can spend tens of millions in cash to fight a lawsuit just to destroy a family. Such crazy behavior will definitely disgust the other party.

Fearon Goodman frowned, listening to the words of the child opposite, looking at the madness in his eyes, and then looking at Adam lying in his mother's arms, and suddenly felt relieved.

This child's threat is very immature, but it is indeed the correct method that all rich people have proven. Is he afraid of these threats? Yes, in terms of net worth, he also has tens of millions of dollars, but most of it is in real estate.

Who would prepare tens of millions of dollars just to fight a lawsuit and drag others to death? There were only madmen, rich madmen, and he wasn't sure whether the one across from him was a madman.

"Oh, I'm sorry, my mother is still waiting for me. If you call the police, you can ask the police to contact my lawyer." Wayne's expression was cold, with madness in his eyes. He threw down a business card belonging to lawyer Ryan and read it. After one glance at Adam, he turned around and left.

Is it cool? Really cool. He works hard to pursue success, and success can bring him a lot of wealth. In this 'free country' composed of capital and capitalists, large amounts of wealth mean everything. The role that money can play here is definitely far beyond the imagination of people on the other side of the Pacific.

Only with wealth can he feel the greatest sense of security. This is the biggest feeling he has gained after coming here for more than 20 years.

After wiping the blood on his hands, he returned to the car and started the car. His mother was still waiting to celebrate him, and Wayne didn't want his mother to worry.

"Mom, where are we going to eat?" He asked in a relaxed tone while driving the car, looking at his mother sitting in the passenger seat. All the depression and frustration during this period were vented in that punch.

"Let's go check out your apartment. It's too early. Your dad is at the farm and won't come out, otherwise we could celebrate your graduation as a family."

"It's okay, Mom. If I'm not busy for a while, I will go back and live for a while. By the way, I asked my agent to contact the real estate agent and prepare to change my place. Do you have any suggestions? Mom." Wayne drove the car, I started discussing with my mother about buying a house.

Anna looked at her handsome son in a suit, with pride shining in his eyes. "Just make your own decision. You have grown up, and you have to make your own decisions on everything in the future."

He shrugged, parked the car downstairs, and took his mother back to his room.

"Hi, Naomi, this is my mom, Anna, Anna Greenberg. Mom, this is my friend Naomi Watts." As soon as he opened the door, he saw Naomi doing her homework in front of the kitchen counter. He was holding something, and when he heard the door open, he put down his shovel and looked over.

This caught Wayne off guard a bit, so he had to bite the bullet and make the introduction. Naomi reacted first and greeted politely: "Hi, Anna, I'm making cheese and bolognese spaghetti to celebrate his graduation. Do you want to have some together?"

"Of course, thank you!"

Anna stared at Naomi, and she recognized it. This was the heroine in her son's movie. No one knows the virtues of a girl who comes to Hollywood to pursue her dreams better than herself, who has been a producer. She must ask her son clearly.

Not caring about Naomi's eyes, Anna pulled her son into the bedroom and closed the door. "Aha? Girlfriend?"

"No, mom, just ordinary friends!"

"Watch your private life, Wayne! I don't want to be on the farm and see your gossip in the media! Don't think I don't know what you do in school."

Wayne could only agree with a helpless smile.
