Chapter 435: Where the Advantage Is (Asking for Subscription)

Ask for commuter passes and recommended tickets!

After a brief consultation, Aziva Gosman was the first to leave the audition room, followed by David Heyman, and the two seemed to have something to discuss, and after turning the corner of the hallway, they entered the same office.

In the audition room, Matthew didn't look at Francis Lawrence, he walked straight to the door, and was just about to open the door and go out, when Francis Lawrence happened to come over.

"I'm sorry, Matthew. Francis Lawrence said sorry in his mouth, and there was no apology on his face, but with a hint of imperceptible pride, "It is the acting that determines the outcome of the audition." ”

Matthew stopped, withdrew his hand, turned to look at Francis Lawrence, imitated Helen Herman's appearance and tone, and said lightly, "Really?"

This look of indifference made Francis Lawrence a little confused, but he still said, "Of course. ”

Matthew stood behind the door and looked at Francis Lawrence calmly, Francis Lawrence frowned slightly, and said, "Whether you admit it or not, the situation is obvious." ”

"What's obvious?" Matthew asked deliberately rhetorically.

Francis Lawrence's brow furrowed even tighter, Matthew Horner was obviously hard-mouthed, and these star actors were all desperate for face.

He took a deep breath, relaxed, and said, "Matthew, it's true that you are a big star, but the decision of this role is not in my hands, nor is it in your hands, and the person who really decides the ownership of the role is Aziva Gosman." ”

Matthew replied with a rare response, "That's true." ”

Francis Lawrence couldn't help but laugh, "Didn't you see Aziva Gossman's attitude just now?"

"I saw it. Matthew shrugged his shoulders and said casually, "The audition for the role of Annie is not over yet, and there is another actress audition to be held tomorrow, and it is too early to say this." ”

Hearing these words, Francis Lawrence couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Does this make sense, Matthew? I think you know as well as I do that tomorrow's audition is a formality, and the candidate for this role will definitely be between Paula Barton and Alexandra Daddario." ”

"No!" he quickly changed his words, "The role of Annie already belongs to Paula Barton." ”

"Even if Paula Patton gets the role. Matthew asked directly, "What about you?"

A trace of disdain appeared on his face, "You don't really think that competing for such a role means that you can get more power than me in the crew, right?"

Francis Lawrence laughed, "Of course not. ”

He walked past Matthew, opened the door to the audition room, and walked out first.

The crew is not only him, the director and Matthew, the actor, but also hundreds of members, and the audition for this role will soon spread throughout the crew, what will the rest of the crew think? Who will these people think is more authoritative in the crew?

True authority is built through such hands-on practice, not by a co-producer.

In this way, he can not only avenge the defeat of the male protagonist, but also give his girlfriend an explanation, and help the black actor group in his heart, which is simply too cost-effective.

The most important thing is that being able to overpower a popular A-list star in the crew, that kind of refreshing taste is even more enjoyable than having sex with three black women at the same time!

Walking out of the audition room and looking at the back of Francis Lawrence leaving, Matthew sighed softly, according to normal circumstances, Paula Barton, recommended by Francis Lawrence, would definitely be able to defeat Alexandra Daddario and get this supporting actress.

When he auditioned before, he felt very familiar when he saw Paula Patton, and after carefully recalling it, he remembered that he seemed to have seen this black actress in two films, one is the fourth or fifth part of Tom Cruise's "Mission Impossible", in which this black woman plays Ethan Hunter's partner, and the other is the game adaptation of the movie "Warcraft", Paula Patton seems to play a female orc.

Although he thinks Paula Barton is extremely ugly and does not conform to his aesthetics at all, Paula Barton seems to be the female beauty in the "Mission Impossible", and she must be a black pearl in the eyes of some hardcore people.

In this way, Alexandra D'Addario's appearance and figure will not have many advantages at all, coupled with her already average acting skills, it is strange to be able to beat Paula Barton.

However, it is not limited to auditions that determine the attribution of a role.

When Matthew first recommended Alexandra D'Addario to the crew, he took into account the various practical needs of the crew's shooting, as well as Alexandra D'Addario's own strengths and weaknesses, and the reason why he also recommended Alexandra D'Addario to the crew was of course due to his considerations.

And he has communicated with both Alexandra D'Addario and Amanda, and both have also called New York, so the advantages can be translated into practical operations.

Alexandra D'Addario has made two films before, and playing a simple vase-type role is not a problem, as long as her strengths can actually help the crew, Francis Lawrence and Paula Barton, on the other hand, have more than an eighty percent chance of being kicked out by Aziva Gosman.

If the crew chose Paula Barton, they just chose an actor, and Alexandra Daddario can bring far more than just an actor.

When Francis Lawrence's figure completely disappeared from the hallway, Matthew moved his steps and walked forward, and soon came to the front of an office and knocked softly on the door.

"Please come in. ”

Hearing Aziva Gosman's voice from the office, Matthew pushed open the door and walked inside.

"Matthew. Aziva Gosman saw Matthew and asked curiously, "Is there something wrong?"

Pulling out a chair and sitting down, Matthew greeted David before saying to Aziva Gosman, "I have some ideas about the cast for Annie as a supporting actress. ”

Aziva Gosman put aside what she was doing for a moment and said, "About Alexandra D'Addario?"

Matthew nodded, and was about to speak, when Aziva Gosman raised his hand to stop him, and said, "Matthew, we have a very pleasant cooperation, you are also the most critical member of the crew, as long as the crew and the film allow, we have always attached great importance to your opinions." ”

"Yes. Matthew doesn't deny it.

Although the negotiation between the two parties was fought against wits and courage before, it was a normal negotiation process, and after the formal contract was signed, it would not affect the cooperation between the two sides.

Aziva Gosman's words were obviously not finished, and after a pause, he added, "But in the selection of supporting actress Annie, the difference between Alessandra Daddario, whom you recommend, is obvious compared to Paula Barton. ”

The two sides will cooperate next, and Matthew is currently a box office star who is so popular that he is purple, even if he is a film producer, he must show appropriate respect, slow down as much as possible, and say, "Annie, the supporting actress, is the heaviest role in addition to the male lead, and in the case of more suitable actors, the crew cannot take unnecessary risks." ”

Matthew nodded, "I understand. ”

Hearing this, Aziva Gossman smiled and glanced at Matthew, whom he knew, as long as a cooperation agreement was reached, he would never be a problem for the crew.

"Aziva. Matthew suddenly changed the subject, "Is the location scene still planned to be filmed on location in New York?"

"Hmm. Aziva Gosman nodded, "Live shooting can create the sense of desolation, loneliness and realism of a city alone." ”

Matthew followed up with his words and asked, "It's very difficult to shoot in a city like New York. ”

Aziva Gossman shook his head and sighed, "It's not just difficult. "There were two scenes, one on the Brooklyn Bridge and one on Washington Square, and there was so much work to be done to clear the venue, and I've flown to New York, and I've talked to the New York City Hall twice, and I still haven't gotten permission to shoot, and I'm planning to bring in Warner Bros. people to go again next month, but it's ......."

Speaking of this, he shook his head again, the last time he was accompanied by someone from Warner Bros., but he still didn't negotiate with the New York City Hall.

Filming in an international metropolis like New York, if it is only a small area of location scenes, only a small section of road or building is blocked, it is not difficult to get a filming permit, but like those two scenes, to block the entire Brooklyn and Washington Square will inevitably bring a series of chain reactions, and New York City Hall has to be cautious.

Compared with these, the choice of actors for this supporting actress is a small problem at all.

Matthew had been quietly observing Aziva Gosman, and then suddenly turned the topic back again, "Aziva, there is a situation about Alexandra D'Addario, maybe you don't know about it. ”

"Oh?" said Aziva Gosman, looking at Matthew quizzically.

Even David pricked up his ears and looked over.

"Alexandra D'Addario's father is now the federal attorney in New York. Matthew stopped going around in circles and said directly, "It is said that in the second half of the year, he may also become the head of the counterterrorism department in the New York area, and he has a significant influence in New York politics." ”

How could Aziva Gosman not understand what Matthew meant, "You're saying he can help out on location in New York?"

Matthew didn't answer, just nodded slightly, and then added, "This kind of thing is all private. ”

Aziva Gosman immediately said, "I understand. ”

David then said, "It's not going to come out of this office. ”

Matthew stood up, "David, Aziva, then I'll take my leave." ”
