1256. Infighting
Nie Wei observed very carefully, on the one hand, he wanted to see if D'Addario had made progress, and on the other hand, he was also careful not to have any accidents and stop in time, although D'Addario himself said that it didn't matter, but Nie Wei couldn't joke about the actor's health.
To Nie Wei's surprise, Daddario had indeed undergone earth-shaking changes.
As soon as the preparation time of more than ten seconds came, she quickly entered the state of the role, and there was a hint of charm between her eyebrows, but she was not frivolous, and she had a natural feeling.
And when I auditioned before, the charm of Daddario's performance, and his gestures were full of deliberateness, and compared with now, the high and low are immediately clear.
In a week, Nie Wei is satisfied with such progress.
The point is that Daddario's performance method has become an experiential method, that is, to substitute herself into the character, and it is clear that, as Nie Wei has discovered, she is very suitable for this kind of performance.
If nothing else, before the movie starts, as long as she maintains the speed of progress, she is fully qualified for the role of the second female Queenie.
The only problem is D'Addario's wrist, injury is always a hidden danger, but Nie Wei has calculated the time, and it will probably be more than a month by the time the filming starts, and although D'Addario will not be able to completely heal the wrist injury, the basic action is still fine.
The key is that there is no scene in this movie that needs to fight, even if there is an airport that needs to be coerced, it is the heroine's business, and it has nothing to do with her.
At this moment, the two acted out a part of the script, the plot of Jacob shaking hands with Queenie, who they met for the first time.
With such a simple plot, there will definitely be no problems, Jonah Hill showed Jacob's infatuation at first sight very well, but the moment he stretched out his hand, Nie Wei frowned.
Because Jonah Hill was holding out his left hand, he turned out to be a left-hander.
When Nie Wei was about to stop, Daddario naturally stretched out his left hand and shook it gently, her expression did not show the slightest trace of pain in the process, and even when she turned around after the handshake, she looked at Jonahill with silky eyes, and the charm of that moment was really like the amorous Queenie in the story.
Of course, D'Addario is not as indifferent as he appears.
In fact, Nie Wei observed that she didn't need strength to raise her hand, but her weak and boneless appearance was very suitable for the role, adding a touch of charm.
Nie Wei couldn't help but applaud her performance in his heart, but on the surface, Nie Wei was silent, and others couldn't see any likes or dislikes for this scene from his face.
"That's it. Nie Wei shouted to stop and let Daddario and Jonah Hill return to their seats.
Daddario has been secretly observing Nie Wei's reaction since the end of the performance, but he didn't see anything, which made the little cow's heart beat violently, and the whole person was very nervous, always wondering if there was something that didn't satisfy the internal guard.
Next, Nie Wei didn't comment on the performance of the two people, as if he really wanted to watch a scene as he wanted.
For the remaining hour, everyone talked about the characters with each other, and Nie Wei didn't give any evaluation to Daddario, and the little cow was nervous the whole time.
At half past ten, Nie Wei announced the end of the reading, and this point in time was over, and Nie Wei was obviously not going to take care of everyone's lunch.
Everyone was very interested and ready to leave, but Nie Wei stopped Daddario.
"Call your agent to my office. After Nie Wei left this sentence, he left the conference room first, Daddario was stunned for a moment, and after coming back to his senses, his whole body seemed to be overpowered, and he trembled slightly with excitement.
She knew very well that if she didn't pass, Nie Wei only needed a word to send her, and she didn't need to find any agent at all, and what office she had to go to, and if he did this, it was equivalent to that he really kept this role and got the opportunity to sign a contract again.
After the excitement, Daddario's eyes moistened and she wanted to cry, but she knew that it was not time to cry, so she had to tell Winnie the news as soon as possible, and then sign the contract immediately.
"Winnie, where are you?" Daddario didn't find Winnie at the door of the conference room, and quickly took out his mobile phone to contact her.
"I'm in the café near Max Films, why, is it over so soon?" asked Winnie.
"It's over, there are not all people today, the main thing is to get acquainted with each other, and it will be a week before we officially start reading and discussing, no, now is not the time to say this, Winnie, you hurry up to the conference room, Nie Wei asked me to go to his office with you. With an excited heart and trembling hands, Daddario resisted his excitement and informed Vinnie.
Winnie, who was drinking coffee in the café, heard this, and like D'Addario, she was stunned for a moment, and when she turned around, the agent, who had always been cold-faced, yelled directly in the café excitedly.
Everyone in the café looked at Winnie, who seemed to be crazy, and even the elegant sound was interrupted, and the pianist who played the piano was stunned at the moment.
Winnie is very beautiful, especially that kind of cold temperament, which attracts the attention of many literary and artistic youth.
The same is true of the pianist, who has been playing the piano for half an hour since Winnie entered the café and sat there, and even shook his head more than usual, hoping to attract the lady's attention.
But what disappointed him was that the lady sat there like an ice queen unmoved, just looking out the window, which made the pianist very sad, thinking that this ice queen might be waiting for someone she liked, and that person was not worthy, how could such a woman let her waste her time waiting.
But just when the pianist felt sorry for himself and didn't even feel sorry for the man he made up in his brain, the Ice Queen answered a phone call, and he was directly dumbfounded in the next scene.
The image of the ice queen in her eyes gradually shattered, turning into a female madman, looking up to the sky and laughing What the hell is this?
But before the pianist could recover from this 'shocking' scene, Winnie had already run out of the café like a gust of wind, and she really wished that she would teleport, be able to appear in front of D'Addario immediately, take her and appear in Nie Wei's office in an instant, and then sign the contract in an instant.
Five minutes later, Winnie appeared in front of Daddario panting.
"Let's go to Nie Wei's office now. Winnie didn't have time to say hello to D'Addario, and immediately beckoned her to go to Nie Wei's office with her.
"Daddario, remember that you try not to say it for a while, and leave all the communication matters to me. ”
"Nie Wei will definitely let us sign a waiver, he won't let the crew take the risk of your health, but don't worry, I will persuade the agency to pay for Winnie to have a private doctor, you just have to focus on shooting. ”
"After the signing is completed, your activities have been temporarily suspended recently, concentrate on this role, make this movie, and you will find that your life will become completely different from what it is now. ”
While speaking, the two had arrived at the door of Nie Wei's office, Winnie breathed a long sigh of relief, and smiled at Daddario: "Daddario, you are great, your task has been completed, and it will be up to me next." ”
Daddario smiled and nodded.
Winnie went to the secretariat at the door to report, and soon the secretary received a call from Nie Wei and asked her to take the two of them in.
Walking into Nie Wei's office, Daddario and Winnie looked around curiously, which was completely different from the golden appearance that Daddario imagined, and it was not full of all kinds of black technology as Winnie thought, after all, Nie Wei was the boss of a world-renowned technology company.
It's a very ordinary office, only the area is very large, and the whole wall of books is very eye-catching, and it looks like there are at least a thousand books.
Daddario was very curious, and wanted to draw a copy to see if Nie Wei had read any of these books, of course, this idea just turned in her heart, and she didn't dare to put it into action.
"What to drink?" Nie Wei asked with a smile as he walked over from the other side of the book wall.
"White water is fine. Winnie replied with a smile.
Nie Wei asked the secretary who had not left to bring three glasses of white water, and then invited Winnie and D'Addario to sit down on the sofa.
"Let's talk about contracts. Nie was the only one who spoke, Winnie and D'Addario couldn't help but look at each other excitedly, their guess was really right, Nie Wei was really satisfied with D'Addario's performance.
If Daddario just begged Nie Wei, then she would definitely be hopeless, if Daddario's acting skills were good at the beginning, without this process of progress, it would be difficult for Nie Wei to be tempted.
On the contrary, Daddario's performance was not good at the beginning, but he made full progress after the injury, and he also had the perseverance to insist on acting despite the injury, and all kinds of situations were taken care of, which made Nie Wei appreciate her very much.
D'Addario fully interpreted a sentence, that is, 'the harder you work, the luckier you are', and through her own efforts, she finally 'lucky' to win Nie Wei's favor again.
"Director Nie Wei, please speak. At this moment, Winnie felt a little nervous.
"This film is currently going to be filmed two in a row, I hope Miss D'Addario can sign two contracts at a time, the salary has been written into the contract, you can take a look, and there are some other obligations that Miss D'Addario needs to fulfill, and I will also use a highlighter to help you highlight them, you have read the contract first. ”
Nie Wei handed the contract that had been prepared long ago to Winnie.
Winnie took out a pair of glasses, put them on and began to check the contract, as an agent, she also minored in law, for this kind of acting contract, she does not need to find a lawyer, she can check it herself.
About half an hour later, Winnie was also relieved after checking the contract.
Max Films doesn't have any difficulties with D'Addario, there are no so-called traps in the contract, and the key regulations marked are actually not difficult, they are all norms that some actors should abide by, D'Addario is a good child, she doesn't need to worry about anything.
As for the salary, Max Films is playing a cautious role.
For two movies, the total salary given to D'Addario for each movie is 1.5 million US dollars, and 750,000 for one play, which is also D'Addario's current normal value.
But Winnie knows that if she signs separately, Daddario will earn more, especially after the first movie is released, the value of the actors will definitely rise.
Obviously, Max Films has filmed two films in a row, just to save on actors' salaries, which is understandable.
Winnie didn't take this seriously, she thinks that other actors are the same, and they can see the trickiness in them, but aren't they all signed?
If you play tricks on yourself, but you annoy Nie Wei because of this, you may lose the contract you got again, and then it will be worth the loss.
And filming this drama, Winnie and D'Addario have a consensus, they are not going to make money at all, what they want is this opportunity.
"There is no problem with the contract, Director Nie Wei, if it is convenient, we can sign it now. Winnie put down the contract and said directly.
"Okay, I'll ask the secretary to take you to the legal department in a moment, and someone will get you the contract there. Nie Wei smiled and nodded, and then suddenly glanced at Winnie and D'Addario seriously.
"Are you interested in jumping ship to Max Films?"
"What?" Winnie was startled, and Daddario on the side was also full of surprise.
"Take it easy, don't confuse this with the contract, no matter what you decide, Daddario will be my Queenie, but I hope you will seriously consider my suggestion, Max Films has more resources than you think. Nie Wei didn't persuade anything, and then asked the secretary to take the two to sign the contract.
Twenty minutes later, the two sat back in the nanny's car, their faces not showing much joy, but a little confused.
Nie Wei's sudden solicitation was too sudden for the two.
"Winnie, do you say Nie Wei is serious?"
"Seriously, right?" replied Winnie after a moment's thought.
"Then do you say we're going to say yes?" Daddario asked again, which was also a question she had been thinking about, and even because of thinking about this, her joy at signing the contract was diluted.
"I ...... I don't know. For the first time, Winnie felt that she was unable to make a decision, and her whole heart was confused because of Nie Wei's words.
Nie Wei's solicitation was only temporary, there were too few actors in Max Films, and there were not many professional agents, and Winnie and Daddario both made Nie Wei admire them very much.
The key is that Nie Wei didn't seem to be happy with the two people in the original company, so he started to recruit talents.
Just when D'Addario and Winnie were entangled, the girls who had just debuted as a new group were suffering on the other side of the ocean.
Work continues, physical exhaustion is secondary, heart tiredness is really tired, in just one week, the fans of eleven girls have been on the hot search three times because of quarrels with each other, except for a certain juvenile group, the fans of this new group can pinch the most.
Among them, Yang Xiaoli suffered the most criticism, Zhou Duoduo couldn't look past it, so he said two words for her on the Internet, but he didn't expect that because of these words, Zhou Duoduo also got into trouble.
