The next morning, Simon and Janet flew to Utah together.

As the plane took off, Janet asked about yesterday's events: "So, how was your talk with Fox?"

Feeling that the plane was no longer turbulent, Simon unbuckled his seatbelt, flashing in his mind the series of rapidly changing expressions Peter Sanders had seen yesterday afternoon when he saw the age information on his driver's license, smiled and shook his head: "You know, I hope Signed a share contract, Sanders insisted on a buyout. So, it may have to wait until after Sundance, and hopefully things will turn around by then.”

Yesterday, although Simon explained to Peter Sanders in detail the distribution strategy of using the gimmick of his own age to promote the distribution strategy, Peter Sanders was obviously a little moved, but the other party did not agree in the end, and did not even give another one. New plus code.

Simon also realizes that this is most likely because Peter Sanders has insufficient authority.

The power structure of major Hollywood film companies is basically decided by the person at the helm. Although Peter Sanders is the vice president and has certain powers in charge, in terms of movies, the power to make decisions still rests with President Ronald. Sandberg hands.

Janet also obviously just asked casually, and when she heard Simon's answer, she was not discouraged at all, and said, "The big deal, let's do the distribution ourselves, maybe we can accumulate some experience."

Simon smiled and nodded in agreement.

Speaking of which, it's not impossible to do the distribution yourself, but it's a waste of time to do so.

It took Simon only four months to produce "Lola Run", but it is estimated that it will take one or two years to complete the distribution of the film in various channels. Moreover, the final profit may not be as good as selling the film directly to the film company, which is completely worth the loss.

After chatting a few words at random, Simon opened a copy of "The Hollywood Reporter" that he brought on the plane, and was about to read it when he suddenly remembered something, and asked Janet beside him, "Hey, I'm suddenly a little curious, these days, Why does Katherine always look so strange at me?"

Janet blinked innocently: "Huh?"

Noticing Janet's appearance, Simon was even more suspicious, stared at her and said, "Did you say something to Catherine?"

Janet's eyes flashed a few times again, and she was even more innocent: "What can I say, I'm too lazy to talk about you."

"This must be what was said," Simon looked at Janet's appearance at this time, and became more determined. He rolled up the newspaper in his hand and raised it: "Go ahead and say something bad about me?"

Seeing Simon raise the newspaper, Janet's small body shrank toward the seat, but she raised her slender neck again, as if she would rather die than yield, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "No!"

With this shout, all the passengers in the cabin looked over.

Feeling the gazes of everyone crusade against the domestic abuser, Simon had to sit down embarrassedly, reopen the newspaper, and pretend that nothing happened.

After a while, Janet came close again, and her little paw scratched on Simon's body a few times. Seeing that he didn't respond, she hesitated for a while, and then she leaned into the man's ear: "I, I just bullied you on Christmas Eve. Tell Kate what happened to me all night."

Simon looked puzzled: "How did you bully?"

Janet raised her beautiful little hand and shook it in front of Simon, and said slowly, "That's right, that's it, five times."

Simon's thoughts went around in his own brain circuit several times before he understood what "five times" meant. He suddenly leaned on the seat with a look of dejection, and had the urge to jump from the plane.

Ugh.

destroyed.

all ruined.

Unkind to people.

She must have become an overindulgent animal in Catherine's mind.

Although he has already identified the woman next to him, no one wants to become this image in the hearts of other women.

Why am I so miserable.

Seeing Simon's dejected appearance, Janet put a sticker on him again, and said gruffly: "Simon, don't worry, I've already told Kate, I don't mind."

Simon said weakly: "You didn't tell Kate that I suddenly caught a cold in the middle of the night that day, and I had a severe fever, and I was so upset that I refused to go to the hospital. You did your best to stay by my bedside for a day and a night. You are a model. girlfriend."

Janet blinked: "Hey, didn't I catch a cold?"

Simon raised his hand weakly towards the passing flight attendant: "Miss, can you change my seat? I need to calm down."

...

It had just snowed in Salt Lake City, and the plane landed on a runway surrounded by pure white. Simon and Janet then rented a car and drove east along the mountain road for nearly an hour before arriving at the Sundance Film Festival. Hosted in Park City.

The Sundance Film Festival originated as a film festival in Salt Lake City in the late 1970s, and later moved to Park City.

As the founder, Robert Redford's original intention to launch the Sundance Film Festival was not too simple. The Hollywood superstar bought a ski resort in Park City and built a resort, which turned out to be under-run. In order to change the status quo, Robert Redford decided to imitate the experience of Aspen, another ski town in the United States, by holding an art festival to stimulate the local tourism market while supporting the development of independent films.

After more than 20 years of development, the Sundance Film Festival has become more and more influential, and many Hollywood directors who were later famous in the world have emerged through the Sundance platform.

.

Of course, these are all later stories.

In 1987, Park City is still unknown, and the Sundance Film Festival is far less influential.

Utah is in the American Mountain Time Zone, an hour ahead of California.

Simon and Janet rushed to Park City, where it was past twelve noon.

Janet booked a place in advance at a resort. The location is east of Park City. There are more than a dozen exquisite wooden apartments scattered in the mountains and forests. They are connected by flat asphalt roads. Each house is beautiful and the transportation is very convenient.

Of course, it's certainly not cheap.

Simon is basically penniless now, and several credit cards are all overdrawn. Still, he had to pay for the resort apartment, just to put a fingerprint on Janet's IOU.

Occasionally I thought that if I couldn't make money as soon as possible, I might really have to use Xier Westeros to pay off the debt.

After settling down and having lunch, the two hurried to the Sundance Institute at the foot of the West Ski Resort in Park City to go through some necessary procedures for participating in the film festival, and also deliver the film copy of "Lola Run" to the organizer. square.

Speaking of which, today is January 15th, and Simon is definitely the last exhibitor to submit a copy of the film.

As early as December last year, the Sundance Film Festival announced the shortlists for the two major categories of feature films and documentaries. If it wasn't for the personal recommendation of Robert Redford, the chairman of the film festival, and the competition at Sundance was far less intense than it was later, "Lola Run" would definitely not be eligible to participate.

After completing the registration procedures, Simon had just left the gate of the institute when he happened to meet Robert Redford and his party walking from the parking lot.

"Hey, Simon, you're finally here. David asked about you just now."

Greeting Simon warmly, Robert Redford introduced to him and Janet a few people around him, all of whom were judges at the festival.

Simon has inquired in advance that Sundance currently has only two units of feature films and documentaries, and each unit has five judges, a total of ten people. There were only four people around Robert Redford, obviously incomplete.

And, listen to four names, David Anson, Randa Haynes, Kit Carson, Jane Benix.

These people should all be film and television practitioners.

However, Simon didn't know any of them.

Actually, this is not surprising. Even after more than ten years, the judges of the Sundance Film Festival are still biased towards the "unpopular", far from a series of big judges from several major film festivals.

Following the introduction of Robert Redford, Simon and Janet shook hands with several people one by one.

Hearing that the judge named David Anson had just mentioned himself, in the process of greeting, Simon deliberately looked at the other party and found that David Anson was also looking at him curiously.

"We are going to watch the shortlisted films. Since you sent the copy, you can just watch it first. Everyone is very curious about your film."

Having said that, after introducing each other, Robert Redford patted Simon on the shoulder again, warned him a few words, and walked into the institute with the other four people.
