Chapter 5: Don Walker's Might

"Very good, this is over!"

This scene of Ruth and her fiancΓ©'s quarrel was only repeated three times, and Don waved his hand, "Rest for fifteen minutes and prepare for the next shot!"

"Stop!"

However, as soon as Donn's words fell, Cameron's angry voice came immediately, "Donn, what are you doing? Will you direct the scene? The scene just now does not meet the requirements, reshoot!"

Once again, the set fell into an icy embarrassment.

Don was very angry, this is not the first time Cameron has interfered with his directing, repeatedly intervening, are you the director, or am I the director?

Judging from Donne's current vision, of course he knows that in the scene just now, Kate Winslet's expression is slightly stiff, and her lines are slightly tense, with her strength, she can do better.

But is it necessary?

This is not a European literary film, "Titanic" is still a Hollywood commercial blockbuster in the final analysis, and the real selling point is the magnificent ship and shocking love.

This kind of short shot, which is only a few seconds after the film, no one cares at all!

What's more, now that the crew is short of funds, Don promised the senior management of Fox Films that he would catch up with next summer, and he really couldn't waste time and money on such side matters.

Don possessed Cameron's professional ability, not his paranoid and stubborn mental attributes, and said very unceremoniously at the moment: "Enough! James, it's not your job!"

Cameron didn't give up, glared and roared, "You know Kate's performance is not good enough, why don't you stop it?

Kate Winslet was also a little weak-hearted, and whispered nervously: "Mr. Director, or ...... I'll try again?"

Don said angrily, "Are you provoking me?"

Kate Winslet was only twenty-one years old, her face was pale with fright, and her body couldn't help but tremble.

"I'll say it again, this one is over, now go and rest!" Don pointed to the lounge and said coldly to Cameron, "Mr. Cameron, "Titanic" is not only your hard work, but also everyone's hope! I don't need you to point fingers, now please get out of the way!"

The actors, including Kate Winslet and Billy Zane, are powerless to fight such a big fight, neither to walk, nor to stop, and to be in a dilemma.

Jon Landau came over at the right time, frowned and said: "Little Don, you are still young, you may not know much about directing, listen to the advice of your predecessors, be modest, and ask for more advice, it will be good for you!"

Well, it's obviously relying on the old and selling the old, and the morality has kidnapped it.

It's just that Don doesn't eat this set at all!

"What the hell are you? A dog-legged person dares to point fingers in front of me, so you are also worthy of it, get out of me!"

Tang En said several dirty words in a row, which frightened everyone present, and everyone changed color.

That's too strong, isn't it?

Better than Cameron!

Cameron shouted to the actors at most, but Jon Landau was one of the main producers!

This young director does not seem to be as modest as he seems to be, and his fiery temper is no worse than James Cameron!

Jon Landau was dumbfounded, he couldn't even speak, he took a few steps back in a panic, and pointed at Donn, "You...... You...... What do you say?"

"I told you to get out!"

Don was furious, he had really had enough of Cameron's meddling and Jon Landau's scheming.

At this time, Grant Hill, the representative of Fox Films, came over with a frown, Cameron is the first producer of the movie, and it is not easy for him to lose face, but Jon Landau is different, and said in a deep voice: "Jon, what are you going to do? Don is the director approved by the board, are you questioning the decision of the board?"

Jon Landau's face was gloomy, he took a deep breath, lowered his posture, and said calmly: "No, I just made some small suggestions to Director Walker, and if there is any offense, I hope Director Walker will forgive me." ”

This guy is also quick enough, and immediately made a decision, abandon the car to protect the handsome, protect the face of Cameron, the first producer, and resist the contradiction on himself, first, he will not shake Cameron's authority, second, he will make him thank himself, and third, he can give everyone a good impression of maintaining the overall situation.

Grant Hill nodded, although he is only the third producer, he is the official face of Fox Films, and his power on the crew has skyrocketed after Cameron lost Bill McNick's favor.

"Okay, didn't Director Walker say it?

Grant didn't want to hit Cameron in the face and pointed the finger at the actors who were standing stupidly in place.

Everyone was relieved and relieved.

The fierce quarrel that broke out suddenly subsided, but as everyone knows, Director Walker won again.

Kate Winslet looked back at Don with a complicated expression, bitter in her heart. Even a big director like Cameron has to back down in the face of Donn Walker's anger, how can she, an actress, resist the authority of the director?

She regretted not being at the beginning!

……

Back in the lounge, Don shook his hand angrily, "Cameron went too far!"

Grant Hill smiled wryly, "Jamie, he's a little rough, but he's a good guy, he just wants the movie to be better." ”

"Humph!"

Of course, Don knew that Cameron was not targeting him as a person, but simply a disagreement on the filming, otherwise he would have spoken ill of each other a long time ago.

Just Jon Landau......

"Grant, fire Jon Landau, he will seriously affect our filming schedule!"

"Huh?"

Grant Hill was stunned for a long time. This Don Walker is too narrow-minded, isn't it just a quarrel? And Jon apologized.

"It's not easy, he's the second producer, there's no reason for us to sack an important person for no reason, he gave a lot in the pre-production of the film. ”

Grant shook his head, clearly disapproving of Done's idea.

"Why...... Don narrowed his eyes and groaned slightly, and went out to call his current assistant George, "How is the matter for you to investigate?"

George patted his chest and said: "It's clear, it's them who are jealous, and three assistants on the set have teamed up to design a frame." ”

Don was a little dissatisfied, "That's all?"

"Ah......h

George was stunned, a little overwhelmed, this is the truth.

Don said in a deep voice: "I suspect that Jon Landau is behind this, you can check it again!"

"Huh?"

George understood what Donn meant, was this to frame Jon Landau?

Grant Hill was also taken aback, this Don is really not going to stop if he doesn't achieve his goal! Quickly stopped, looked at Don, sighed, and said with a wry smile: "I'm really convinced of you! Forget it, anyway, the filming of Los Angeles is almost over, and the crew is going to Mexico to shoot a big ship, so I'll let Jon go to New York to set up." ”

Don finally smiled, "That's the best." ”

……

Kyle Winslet has seen Donn's domineering and is eager to communicate with her agent on the phone.

"What the hell am I going to do now?" he was like a devil when he was angry!" Kate's voice trembled.

"Calm down, Kate, calm down!" the agent was relieved, "Since he is the director, he will be responsible for the whole play, you are the heroine, he won't embarrass you too much." ”

"But......" Kate paused for a moment, and her heart was even more panicked, "But in the scene just now, I obviously felt that the acting was not good enough, but he directly let it pass, is he deliberately ugly me?"

"And this?"

The agent on the other end of the phone was a little surprised, "This is an investment of nearly 200 million, he dares to joke about this kind of thing?"

Kate smiled bitterly: "Robert, you don't know, he just had a big fight with Cameron, and he scolded Jon Landau as well, scolding...... It's hard to hear!"

"This ......" the agent was silent for a while, and said solemnly, "Kate, no matter what, you must find a way to ease relations with him immediately, which is likely to affect your future acting career." ”

"I just don't know how to ease relations with him, that's why I asked you......"

"You're a girl, a pretty girl!"

The agent accentuated the tone.

Kate fell silent.

She certainly understood what her agent meant, which is all too common in Hollywood.

"But...... I'm already engaged. ”

"The British director? Forget it! This is Hollywood, and Hollywood has Hollywood rules! Kate, you have to understand that this play is very important to you, far more important than the British director!"

Agents value profit over righteousness, in fact, this is a habit in Hollywood.

It's just that Kate is British.

The British are more conservative than the Americans, about marriage, about feelings, about friends, about culture......

"But ......"

"Kate, if you want to be bigger in Hollywood, you have to fit in. Don't say it's you, even Princess Kelly and Marilyn Monroe, aren't they all here like this?"

Kate Winslet sighed and nodded blankly, "Okay, I'll think about it." ”

The agent said in a deep voice: "Kate, you are going to Mexico City soon, it is the key to the whole show, you have to hurry up and solve this problem!"

Kate calmed down, "I see. ”
