After seeing off David Geffen, Duka quickly ran to the bathroom on the second floor of the bar to wash his hands. Just now, that old snake skin from Geffen was joking with him and holding his hand, almost getting goosebumps all over his body.

When I came out, I met Julia Roberts in the aisle on the second floor. She and several filmmakers were walking and talking about new film projects. Julia looked like a strong woman when she wasn't smiling.

"Hey Duca, why are you here?"

Julia Roberts greeted a few people around her and walked towards him, her sexy red lips curved and she smiled brightly.

"David Geffen and I are downstairs talking about work."

Duka leaned on the railing and pointed to the noisy hall downstairs.

"Just you two?"

Julia Roberts blinked and smiled a little dirty.

"Please be pure in your thoughts, okay? What are you doing here? Got a new role?"

"Yes, Warner's new movie project, Gannet Assassination, a crime suspense movie."

Julia Roberts shrugged.

"Sounds great."

This movie seems to be one of Julia Roberts' masterpieces, and Duca secretly regrets that he didn't get the script in advance.

"When will we cooperate again? Otherwise we have known each other for so long in vain."

Duca said.

"Haha, what do you mean by this? What do you mean we have known each other for so long?"

Julia Roberts asked dissatisfiedly.

"Think about it, you are the famous movie star Ms. Julia Roberts, the most popular actress in Hollywood, and I am the boss of a film company, the most visionary film investor in Hollywood. We should not cooperate.

Once?"

Duka spread his hands and asked.

"Hmph, that's nice to say. I heard that Monica is in charge of all the work of Wanru Maiden Pictures. Monica is also the producer of those movies. It has nothing to do with you. You are an idle guy.

How can he claim to be the most discerning film investor in Hollywood?"

Julia pointed at him and smiled.

"Haha, at least Monica is my girl and I chose her to manage the company. How can you say she has nothing to do with me? At least I have a lot of vision."

"Hey~, you are eating soft food, do you understand, Mr. King of Guns!"

"I understand, so I came to you to cooperate and try to eat more soft rice."

Duca smiled.

"Haha, it's impossible to chat with a shameless guy like you. You said you want to cooperate, so bring me the script."

Julia asked, holding out her palm.

"Not yet. I want to make an appointment with you first. Wouldn't it be more polite?"

"Hmph, find the script first and then bother me."

Julia waved her fingers, turned around and walked into a private room.

Duka smiled, turned around and went out, leaving the bar.

Thinking of Julia's words, Duca came to the film company again and looked through the new script materials he had recently received in the office.

This year the company has invested in six films, "Immoral," "Innocence," "Black and White," "Escape from Las Vegas," and "Pulp Fiction." Next year, a small literary production of "Cowgirl Blues" is tentatively planned.

TBD to be directed by Rodriguez.

Next year we can invest in at least two to three film projects.

There are more than 3,000 scripts in the production department's script warehouse. When receiving these scripts, the staff in the production department will sort them out according to their type, such as drama, romance, comedy, suspense, horror, action, etc.

etc., and place them on various shelves in categories.

In addition, there are various information materials about the script on the computer.

Through the computer, he can look up the names of these scripts column by column. When he sees the names of familiar scripts, he will write them down. There are many familiar names, but there is no need to get too excited.

When these screenwriters submitted their scripts, they not only submitted them to LV, but other companies also received the scripts. Some were bought early, and some have already entered the filming period. This means that some people are quick and some are slow.

Moreover, when most scripts are filmed or released, their names will be changed according to market conditions. There are very few scripts with the original names, so finding scripts using this method is not very efficient.

After three days of browsing, he looked through the table of contents of the scripts and found 12 script names that were familiar or had similar translations.

He took the water glass to work in the script library again, and read the scripts hastily for a day. Among these 12 scripts, he only found two scripts with somewhat familiar plots, one was "The Years of Love" and the other was "The Mask".

"The Years of Love" is a literary film about a retired cavalry colonel and his three sons with distinct personalities. The plot of the film is very similar to the "Legends of the Autumn" he has watched.

The script was sent by a director named Edward Zwick in June.

There is also the movie "The Mask", which has a similar plot to "The Mask", 70% similar. The screenwriter is Michael Foran, who was sent to the screenwriter pool last year.

Since LV currently mainly produces gangster thrillers, ethical romance movies, and comedies, the production department directly rejected them.

Duca remembers that this movie was Jim Carrey's most famous movie. With this movie, Jim Carrey became a top comedy star, his salary increased dozens of times, and New Line also made a lot of money with this movie.

.

He called the production assistant and asked them to meet with director Edward Zwick and try to get the script adaptation rights from screenwriter Michael Foran.

After half a day, the assistant from the production department came back and said that "The Mask" has been acquired by New Line and the rights to adapt it have been signed for five years. Do you want to buy it from New Line?

Duca thought for a moment and forget it.

Everyone knows that he has a good investment vision. Now if he buys the script, New Line will definitely not sell it, even if it does, it will cost him a lot of money.

He secretly regretted that if he had not been addicted to games some time ago and spent more time on the script, he would not have missed 100 million. Games are really harmful to people.

"What did Director Edward Zwick say?"

Duka put away his self-blame and asked.

"Director Zwick still has a movie in hand. He will talk about the new movie after he is finished with the work at hand."

said production assistant Marshall Kowitz.

"Okay, let's wait until he's finished."

Duca waved his hand.

After Assistant Marshall left, he stood up and stretched. Looking back on his work these days, he found that he had not found any of the popular scripts. It was really difficult to make a fortune.

"Boss, I heard that you have been working very hard these days and read scripts in the office every day?"

Monica walked into the office with her arms crossed and a smile on her face.

"That's right. I've read dozens of scripts in the past few days and finally found a good project. If someone says I'm idle in the future, you must remember to refute it for me."

"Haha, no problem. I also received a love movie script today. It feels very good. Take a look."

Monica picked up a folder and put it on the table.

"good!"

I checked in and looked at the script, and it said "Sleepless ile".

Huh~

Sleepless nights in Seattle?

Monica's hands smell so good.
