Chapter 274: Bad Movie Reservation

On the way to the studio, Wang gradually kept thinking about what happened last night.

He let out a long sigh, "It turns out that the entertainment industry is also a father!"

Along with Spielberg, "The Godfather" director Francis Coppola made it a condition that the film would be fully supported by Italians.

If Sofia Coppola were to be the director, Robert De Niro, Nicolas Cage, and even Al Pacino would have made cameos.

"But..."Wang gradually took a sip of coffee, "What I want is a sense of existence, what does the strength of the cast and the quality of the box office have to do with me?"

If it weren't for Princess Diana's autobiography, Wang gradually would not be entangled at all.

"Use the Internet model to write Princess Diana's autobiography. He turned his head to look out the window, "That woman, won't kill me, will you?"

"King," Tom patted him on the shoulder, "here we are." ”

"Oh. Wang gradually agreed, cleaned up his mood, and went to see little Bronfman, the famous loser in Hollywood.

To Wang Yan's surprise, this rich third-generation is elegant and graceful.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang," Little Brown smiled and shook Wang's hand, "I just took over the media group and am getting familiar with the business, so I can't receive it in person." ”

"It doesn't matter. The smile on Wang Yan's face was more sincere than the other party.

Anyway, the copyright fee has been paid, and the news that I have the right to speak in the adaptation has been announced.

"That's good. Bronfman Jr. handed Wang a business card, "This is my personal phone number." ”

"Feel free to contact me if you have any comments. ”

"I hope that the first film after I take over will get a bumper harvest at the box office and word of mouth. ”

Wang gradually looked at the back of the other party leaving, and suddenly felt a little like laughing.

Just "I'm Too Rich", that broken script?

Write with the imagination of this rich third generation, maybe it can really sell on the website!

"Mr. Wang, I'm Ron Meyer. A middle-aged white man introduced himself: "The current president of Universal." ”

Of course, he is also the chief producer of "I'm Too Rich". ”

"Now that the script is being written, we should first decide on the director. ”

Wang gradually took over the list of director candidates and found that the first person in the list was Sophia Coppola, the second generation of directors.

He looked up a little confused, and saw Ron Meyer smiling strangely at him.

So, that super director has already got almost everyone, not just contacting himself?

Wang gradually did not express an opinion on this point.

Because he really didn't feel at ease that the film adaptation of his autobiography was filmed by women.

If it fails, it's nothing, and Hollywood has countless movies that fail every year.

But if you follow the female aesthetics, you can shoot it successfully...

The devil knows what kind of image he will be in the eyes of the public!

The king turned the page silently and did not speak.

"So, what is Mr. Wang's opinion on the lead actor?" asked Ron Meyer.

"Yellow-skinned, preferably Chinese. The king replied without thinking.

Since the other party wants to use autobiography as a gimmick to promote this movie.

Then, the issue of race and skin color must not be compromised.

Think of Michael Jackson!

Whatever the reason, his change will not please African-Americans, but will also be ridiculed by whites.

"Uh, Mr. Wang. Ron Meyer was a little embarrassed, "In Hollywood, there are very few Chinese Americans with box office appeal. ”

"The only suitable Zunlong has no schedule. ”

Wang gradually took the list handed over by the other party and looked at it carefully.

He was surprised to find that the most box office appeal, in addition to Jackiechan, was actually a woman named Lucy Liu.

Let Jackiechan play a writer, or is TM based on himself?

Wang gradually thought about that picture, and almost vomited blood.

He frowned and asked, "Can't you open the selection and enable some new people?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang. Ron Meyer shrugged, "With such a big investment, the protagonist must have starring experience in a movie." ”

"It's a Hollywood rule!"

"Or," he muttered, suggesting, "can we replace them with Japanese or Korean?"

Not to mention the racial perception, just the English pronunciation of these two ethnic groups, Wang gradually couldn't stand it.

Please, before I crossed over, was it better than their pronunciation standards?

The king groaned for a moment, and decided to make a compromise.

"And if I agree to use Miss Sofia Coppola as the director, will I be able to open the audition?"

Ron Meyer stared at the king for a moment, but shook his head.

He clapped his hands, motioned for everyone in the office to get out, and then looked serious.

"Nothing to do with this, Mr. Wang. ”

"For the sake of my career, I can't set this precedent!"

"To be honest, even if the film fails, it will have a limited impact on me. ”

"But if I break the unspoken rules, then I won't be able to stand in Hollywood anymore. ”

fuck!

So, the failure of this film has had a great impact on yourself?

Anyway, the licensing fee has already arrived, and the box office has nothing to do with itself.

If you fail because of your own participation, maybe it's still a good thing.

After all, many writers think that their aesthetics are different from those of the general public, and that will be more likely to gain the favor of some writers.

"So, you have to choose between Japanese and Korean, and Jackiechan?" asked Wang.

"Of course not. Ron Meyer shrugged, "And Miss Lucy Liu." ”

Hearing this, Wang gradually almost walked away.

Let a woman play herself?

Alas, no!

His fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, "The female director and the leading actor dressed as a man must be, definitely and definitely a big bad movie!"

Then, you don't have to worry about the female director using weird aesthetics to shoot classics that she can't understand.

As a condition for agreeing to Sofia Coppola as a director, he will also obtain authorization for Princess Diana's autobiography.

At present, from the perspective of the world, this lady is about to replace Audrey Hepburn as the world's new female idol.

So, how much is this authorization worth?

And he just exchanged little Bronfman's money for his own...

Pit the rich three generations, at most, only a little unpassable on conscience...

However, what is conscience and how much is it worth?

"Then..."Wang gradually calculated the income quickly in his heart, "Lucy Liu, right?"

"What?" said Ron Meyer, who didn't seem to hear clearly, asked aloud.

"I said, use Sofia Coppola as a director. ”

"Let Lucy Liu be the starring role!" Wang gradually replied.
