717 Hollywood is very professional
Marion Cotillard was suffocating with nervousness.
Today, she got up early in the morning to find a hairstylist to do her hair, a makeup artist to do exquisite makeup, and a designer to wear today's clothes.
Even in the cold winter of January, she bravely put on a long dress.
Actresses, wearing skirts, never distinguish between spring, summer, autumn and winter.
She thought that Don En was suddenly interested in her, so she dressed up carefully and went to the new global headquarters to meet Don En.
Although she hadn't been to Done's office.
But the word has spread in the industry, in Don's office...... There is a red sofa!
The meaning is self-explanatory.
Marion Cotillard is a French actress, she is 29 years old this year, what scenes have she never seen? Those bastard directors in France are much more disgusting than Hollywood.
It's a blessing to have Donn's favor.
She was nervous, though.
Because the last time she was at the home of her agent, Hilda Querry, she and Don met.
At that time, she boldly seduced. Don said that it would be best to let her line up with another French actress, Eva Green.
However, Eva Green's family is too prominent, and in the French entertainment industry, it can definitely be regarded as a prestigious family, equivalent to the Coppola family in France.
If it weren't for this background, she wouldn't have made her debut, starring in "Dreaming of Paris" directed by Oscar-winning director Bernardo Bertolucci.
With Marion Cotillard's current status, he really didn't dare to provoke.
"Alright, don't think about it, it's not what you think!"
Seeing Marion Cotillard's troubled expression, Hilda Querry shook her head amusedly.
"Ah...... Huh?"
Marion Cotillard was stunned for a moment.
Hilda Querry said: "I came here today to talk about a movie, a very important movie, otherwise I wouldn't have come in person." ”
"Movies?"
Marion Cotillard was a little suspicious.
She hasn't given Don any favor before she can talk about movies?
Hilda Querry frowned and said, "Put away your messy thoughts." Even if Don is interested in you, a movie is a movie, and it has nothing to do with anything else. You don't question Hollywood's professionalism!"
"Oh. ”
Marion Cotillard is also a household name in France.
But in Hollywood, she's a complete newcomer.
In front of a top agent in the industry like Hilda Querrly, it is natural to listen to whatever you say.
"There may be some big people in a while, let you talk while you are talking, don't talk too much. Hilda Querry was afraid that the lazy and romantic temperament of the French in her would not be able to be restrained, so she admonished her earnestly.
"I know. Marion Cotillard smiled, blinked, and asked in a low voice, "Hilda, what kind of movie is it?"
"Confidentiality. ”
"Confidentiality?"
Marion Cotillard couldn't laugh or cry.
This has made her go to the office to talk about the role, at this time, and she still has to keep it secret?
Hilda Querrey said seriously: "As I said, Hollywood's professionalism is far better than that of the French film industry." After a while, if you pass the interview, it will naturally tell you what movie it is. If you don't pass, you're not qualified to know. The film project has not yet been established and is still in the stage of secrecy. ”
Marion Cotillard felt like she had gone back to when she was seventeen or eighteen years old, when she first started in the industry, and she didn't know anything.
Obediently followed Hilda Querry to Donne's office, and was introduced by her secretary, Ella Fisher, all the way to the reception room.
Marion Cotillard was shocked by Donne's lavish office and looked around with curiosity.
At the same time, they are also looking for.
The legendary red sofa...... Where the hell is it?
Then, she was stunned on the spot.
In the reception room, she saw three big people - Donn Walker, Ron Howard, and Tom Hanks.
She already knew that there would be an important person present, but she really didn't expect that it would be such a heavyweight.
Some are overwhelmed.
In the reception room at this time, Don was talking very speculatively with Ron Howard and Tom Hanks.
The three parties have no objection to putting the "Da Vinci Code" on the big screen.
As early as the 90s, Ron Howard collaborated with Tom Hanks to shoot "Apollo 13", which made a lot of success in the art and box office market.
Two years ago, Donn and Ron Howard teamed up for $100 million to launch the commercial film "National Treasure," which was released last year and grossed $170 million in North America and $350 million worldwide.
Donn and Tom Hanks have not yet worked together in a movie, and the two have only had a happy collaboration in the American drama "Band of Brothers".
Faced with this invitation to a big project like "The Da Vinci Code", Tom Hanks has no possibility of refusing.
In 2002, Tom Hanks starred in a movie "Road to Destruction", which did not do well at the box office. Although "Get Away with Impunity" was a box office hit later, it was with the aura of Leonardo DiCaprio.
So much so that for the whole of last year, he did not have a new film released.
In the recuperation period.
At this time, Tom Hanks is trying to prove his appeal in the box office market through the project "The Da Vinci Code".
Seeing Hilda Quarie and Marion Cotillard coming, Don casually pointed to the sofa on the side, and then continued the topic just now, and said casually: "Tom, that's it, in terms of salary...... No special requirements, right?"
Hearing this, Marion Cotillard's eyes widened and she was a little surprised.
What's going on?
Hilda Querrey just told her that Hollywood is very professional!
In this case, how can Don bypass the agent and directly negotiate with the actor about the salary?
It's not in order, right?
How did she know that at the level of Tom Hanks, she had long been out of the control of the agency. When he was not famous, the brokerage company was the uncle, and after he became famous, the brokerage company was his grandson.
Even if Tom Hanks wanted to participate for free, the agency didn't dare to say a "no".
Tom Hanks smiled and said very frankly: "Go normally, $20 million." If the budget is not enough...... You can reduce your salary and compensate with later dividends. ”
In 1998, he officially entered the "$20 million club" with "Electronic Love Letters".
The members of this club, as long as they are not shooting sequel films, or particularly niche literary films, are usually paid $20 million, which is not the same price.
For example, Will Smith's "Mechanical Public Enemy" and "Enemy of Love" are $20 million.
If the budget is not enough, the salary should be lowered, which requires a later dividend subsidy.
In his previous life, "The Da Vinci Code" lowered Tom Hanks' salary because of the lack of budget. Then, he got a salary of $18 million + 5% box office profit dividends, and the final total income exceeded $25 million.
Donne, of course, would not prescribe such idiotic conditions.
It's just an extra 2 million to increase the budget, and I gave it in advance!
"No problem! $20 million!"
Tang En didn't think about it, and agreed with a smile.
Ron Howard and Hilda Querrey both listened with smiles on their faces, looking in a good mood.
The actor is happy, the investor is atmospheric, and this project will be very easy to prepare.
Many Hollywood movies have to be done well for several years.
It is often very annoying to keep calculating for one or two million dollars.
In contrast, the project promoted by Don himself is too painful.
Crisp and clean!
"This project, we have to hurry up. Get the script out first and prepare the crew as soon as possible. Strive to start shooting in June and release it in the summer next year. ”
Once again, Donn showed his resolute side.
"Coming out next year?" Ron Howard was a little embarrassed, "Will it be too rushed? As...... Postponed to 2006?"
Don's expression was a little strange, he looked at him deeply, and said, "In the summer of 2006, "Daredevil 2" will be released. ”
Ron Howard was unimpressed.
With the box office appeal of "Daredevil 1", he doesn't think "Daredevil 2" can create obstacles for "The Da Vinci Code".
Tang En had no choice but to say: "In the second half of the year, I will direct a movie, "The Avengers", which will also be released in the summer of 2006." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ron Howard was stunned.
No matter how confident he is, it is impossible for him to compete with Donn's films.
This is the main god of the commercial market!
Tom Hanks smiled: "As long as it's not a special effects blockbuster, 18 months of filming and production time is enough." ”
Ron Howard nodded, "Okay. ”
At this time, Donn's eyes turned to the new French actress and beckoned to her, "Come here." ”
Marion Cotillard quickly got up, stepped gracefully, and slowly came to Donne, Ron Howard, and Tom Hanks, and stood up.
She was wearing a red pleated skirt, the waist was tightened, revealing her graceful figure, and the side of the skirt was slit, revealing the looming white legs, which looked particularly sexy.
She thought that she was here to accompany Tang Enhong sofa to audition today, and she deliberately wore a little charming.
The pair of very eye-catching, a little prominent, deer-like big eyes, enthusiastic and sensitive, showing full French style.
"French?"
Ron Howard saw something at a glance.
"Yes, director. Marion Cotillard smiled, a charming dimple on the corner of her mouth, "I'm from Paris, France, and my name is Marion Cotillard." ”
After speaking, he straightened his waist, gently supported his waist with his left hand, and raised the knee of his right leg slightly, revealing a small piece of white thigh skin.
Pose in a natural, voluptuous and sexy look.
Let the three men savor and admire.
"Sure enough, it's a French beauty, spicy and bold enough!"
Don had a little appreciation in his eyes, and he thought to himself.
