I’m in Hollywood

Chapter 46: Annie's phone

After reading the script of "Wind Beauty", Jeffrey said with some doubts: "Eric, I still think that this story is perfect, just like a fairy tale of a prince and Cinderella. You think Will the audience like a fairy tale of a prostitute? Even if it is like the famous literary works such as "Yellow Ball" and "La Traviata", the ending is also a tragedy."

Eric said that what I want to write is a perfect fairy tale.

The original script of "Fengyue Beauty" is actually a black drama, named "3000", which reflects the survival status of Los Angeles prostitutes through a $3,000 **** transaction between male and female protagonists.

However, during the filming process, because the budget was sufficient, it was repeatedly revised by the director and producer, and finally turned into a romantic love comedy. The most surprising thing is that this changed unrecognizable movie actually got 170 million. The North American box office of the US dollar has made many male and female stars who refused to appear because of the black style of the original script. At the same time, it also achieved the glory of Julia Roberts.

The plot of the prostitute in the beginning of the film is left in accordance with the original script, so the previous audience watched the complete movie, and then recalled, it will find that the plot is out of place with the romantic style of the whole movie.

"Jeffrey, others don't mention it for a while, how do you feel the image of Vivian in the script?"

After all, it is just a text description, and it has not been expressed through the screen. Therefore, Jeffrey pondered for a while: "The character is real, cheerful, and somewhat rough but natural. Even if it is degraded, it still has its own little persistence..."

After listening to Jeffrey's long series of sentiments, Eric patiently said: "Jeffrey, maybe you didn't notice that when you just described Vivian, your mouth is upturned, indicating that you have a little heart. I don't hate this girl who has fallen into the dust, and even like her."

Jeffrey just subconsciously said the feeling of Vivian, and did not notice the details Eric said: "This... do I have it?"

Eric nodded affirmed: "Of course, so, since you don't hate Vivian, then the film will be filmed, and the audience will definitely like this girl."

Jeffrey nodded and quickly raised his eyebrows with dissatisfaction: "Whatever I don't even hate... Is it a very harsh person in your eyes?"

Eric quickly denied: "Of course not, you are just a little embarrassed."

"..."

Eric smiled and patted Jeffrey's shoulder: "Don't be depressed, people who are older will be a little embarrassed, so don't worry."

Jeffrey glanced at Eric with a sullen look: "Well, you are the boss, and the facts prove that your vision is much stronger than mine. Since you have already decided, when will we start preparations?"

"Of course, the sooner the better, it is best to complete the preparation and casting work before Christmas, and start the new year immediately. This movie is very suitable for release during the Valentine's Day."

Jeffrey bowed his head and counted the time: "The Love Story period is really suitable for this movie. However, Eric is not too busy. At that time, "Little Ghosts" has not even been down?"

Eric shook his head: "Jeffrey, you also saw the speed of making "Little Ghosts", so "Feng Yue Qiao Jia" is enough for more than a month, we can negotiate with Fox, post-production I started to promote the work."

"So, when did we start casting, do you have a plan?"

Eric said: "I decided to use Richard Gere. The first choice for the heroine is Sophie Marceau, Jeffrey. You need to help me find the contact information of Sophie Marceau. Then send her an invitation. If the other party does not agree, use Julia Roberts. As for the other supporting roles, wait for the acquisition of the brokerage company. Some supporting roles in the movie are still quite colorful, and can not be cheaper.

"Eric, Sophie Marceau, SophieMarceau, is it so hard? Is she the French actor?"

"Of course, that is the one who played "First Kiss". The image of Sophie Marceau is very compatible with Vivienne, but I don't know if the other party will accept the invitation. After all, you should have heard of some of her circumstances."

"Well, I will send out the invitation as soon as possible. If the other party refuses, Eric, I think, Meg Ryan is also good. As for Julia Roberts, that is the waiter who appeared in your house that night, long. A little... is it not appropriate?"

In memory, Meg Ryan belongs to Jennifer Aniston's previous generation of 'American Sweethearts', and Eric recalls some of his films, such as the famous "Sleepless Night in Seattle," and the other party's image is really good. However, since it has already decided to hold the red Julia Roberts, plus the factors of past lives, Eric will certainly not give the opportunity to others.

"Jeffrey, believe me, that's it. I chose Julia Roberts, I have my own considerations. Right, contact Kapoor Sid, the owner of this Sid brokerage company."

Jeffrey took a page from Eric and looked at it: "Eric, Kapoor Sid is really capable. I heard that several CA-level projects in the previous two years were his hands. Operation. It was only after he had a conflict with Michael Ovitz that he was driven out by CAA. CAA is now very powerful in the entertainment industry, and we should not deliberately anger Michael Owitz."

Eric sneered in his heart, and he has been a bit uncomfortable with the signing of Stewart Langkel so quickly. Although Michael Owitz has now been called the most powerful person in Hollywood by some media, CAA can only be used for five or six years. After the second half of the 1990s, CAA still monopolizes many star resources. However, in the face of the gradually formed media group, it is no longer as beautiful as before.

Moreover, compared with CAA, it is only a 'small shrimp', and it is not guilty. Although CAA monopolizes many superstars, Eric is confident that he can create superstars.

"Just decide it, Jeffrey, we are still just small shrimps, CAA is too lazy to pay attention to us."

Jeffrey shrugged helplessly: "Okay, as you wish."

......

Retaining Jeffrey for lunch, Eric is planning to go to the study to write "Resident Evil", and the phone in the living room suddenly rang.

"Hello, is this Williams home?" Eric picked up the phone, but placed the microphone a little farther away from the ear. He has received several harassing calls these days, and even a guy is connected. It was a madness, and the Eric ear mask was a little numb. Eric even thought about whether to change the number.

The other party was silent for a while, and Eric thought it was another harassing phone. When he was about to hang up, the voice came out of the microphone: "Hello, Eric."

Eric heard the familiar voice and excitedly held the phone against the sofa: "Hey, Anne, I always wanted to explain to you that morning. I have nothing with Drew. I drank that night. The drunk, purely Drew’s little girl is fooling around.”

"This...this has nothing to do with me, we...we have all broken up?"

In an apartment building in Manhattan, New York, Aniston listened to Eric's quick explanation, his voice stuttering, apparently a little struggle inside, and a little resentment against the dull guy opposite.

On the third day of her arrival in New York, Drew did not know the channel from which she found her contact information and explained to her the situation of the day.

The wicked guy opposite, it’s been so many days, he didn’t come to find himself or contact him. If it weren't for a particularly important thing today, Aniston vowed that he wouldn't take the initiative to contact the bastard.

If Eric knows what Aniston thinks, he will scream. Since that day, a series of things have come one after another, and Eric’s heart has been swayed. Until now, he dare not go out at will, and there are still Kung Fu handles this.
