Chapter 252: Back to Hollywood
A few hours later, after a flight, Leila finally returned to Hollywood. 13579246810
I don't know if she has dreamed of this place since her previous life, but when she stepped on the realm of Hollywood, she had a strong sense of belonging. Even if it is her grandfather's house in New York, her sense of belonging is not as strong as here.
The fragrance of movie film seems to waft in the air all the time, and when she sits in the car, the scenery passing through the window is also like a movie playing, so that she can see the obsession so quietly.
"I'll go back first, and I don't know if this guy Abel has eaten well these days. Roy got off the plane and ran away with his luggage.
During his absence, Abel was entrusted to Louise's care. Although he knew that nothing would go wrong, he, who was an older brother, couldn't help but worry.
Theron also got out of the car on the road and left, and Claire had to go back to her mansion in Beverly Hills to tidy up her things, so the only one who followed Leila to the company was Demi, the blonde secretary.
These days have been like a dream to her, and when she closes her eyes, she can still hear the sound of waves in her ears, and the tip of her nose seems to have the smell of seawater. She loved the jelly beach, and she thought it would only be in fairy tales.
Leila is not a harsh boss, she originally wanted Demi to go back to rest and pack her luggage, but the secretary thinks that she has been "on vacation" for so many days, which is not tired at all, and she has to follow the boss to serve her no matter what. Persuasion was useless, so she left her behind.
When she entered the company, the employees who saw the boss coming greeted her one after another.
Leila grabbed a random person, "Do you know where Louise is?"
"She should be in the office now. ”
"Okay, I got it. Layla nodded at him and led Demi straight to Louise's office.
Louise knew that Leila was back before she entered the office, so by the time Leila came in, she had already ordered someone to bring her favorite tea.
"Why didn't you go back and rest first?"
Leila picked up the teacup: "I have something on my mind, and I won't be in the mood to rest if I don't finish it." ”
"Is something wrong?" Louise thought back to the company in the past few days, and couldn't think of any accidents that she could "worry" about.
"It's not the company's business. Leila soothed her for a moment, then asked, "Have you recruited enough actors?"
"That's enough, I've picked a few, and I'll wait for you to finally circle it. Louise got up and walked over to the table and pulled the actor's profile from the file bar. "This time, our film has received a lot of attention, so the standard of audition is very good. There are also some top actors who are interested in our lead role, but I've already told them that the lead is set. ”
"Who are they?" asked Lyra casually as she took the actor's information.
"Yes"
Louise mentioned a few names, but they were really first-line actors. It is not ruled out that some of them are outdated, but with their current value, they will still be interested in her movies, which still makes Lyla vain.
"I didn't expect our movie to be interested in so many people before it was promoted. Leila laughed, "That's a good sign." ”
Louise also laughed: "Of course it's a good sign, now our company is completely different from the original, and the new company that has washed away the stain of B-grade film companies may become the ninth largest in Hollywood in the future." ”
Nine?Lyra smiled meaningfully. Who would have imagined that one of the film companies at the top of the game would go bankrupt because of the failure of a film?
The list given by Louise generally has several choices, each of which has been hand-picked by her. This is something that Leila appreciates, and several collaborations have also allowed Leila to build a lot of trust in her vision. So after she ticked a few candidates on the list, she handed the list back to Louise.
"That's it, and you'll be in charge of picking the rest. ”
"Good. Louise nodded, carefully put the list away, and sent people to these people when the boss left.
Leila thought for a moment, "How's going on at the theme park?"
Billy said everything went smoothly and that it was no problem to finish before the scheduled time. Louise said, suddenly remembering something. "Regarding our cutting-edge cooperation plan, a new batch of scripts has come out, do you want to take a look?"
"Coming out?" This is a plan that Lyra cares about very much, and it can be said that a large part of the future films of Immortal Bird will be born from this plan. "What's there?"
"There are a few that I look really good at. Louise got up and found several scripts: "For example, this book with Eyes across the Mountain and the Human Skin Inn, I think they are both very potential works." In addition, two people came over two days ago with a work called Fatal Corner, which I thought was also good, so I included them in the new cooperation program. ”
"Fatal bend?" Layla froze. If she remembers correctly, the last time she went on a road trip, the director and screenwriter who took a fatal bend on the road gave her a ride and invited them to come to her after writing the script. Why did it come in without making a sound?
"Didn't they mention my name?"
Louise was also stunned for a moment: "Do you know them?"
"It was when I used to go on road trips. Leila told her about that experience in a few concise sentences, and then said: "When we broke up at that time, I also specially asked them to send it to me when the script was written, but I didn't expect it to be delivered, but they didn't tell me. ”
Louise nodded knowingly, "I see." I'm afraid they don't tell you that they want to verify their own strength, right? Or maybe they want to verify the strength of the company. ”
"Perhaps. Leila shrugged, she didn't have much more to say since they had chosen this path. If you are yourself, you should also hope to succeed with real skills, rather than relying on the back door. That's good and shows that they have a higher conviction and are worthy of investment.
"If the script is mature, pull the crew up, waste a day and lose a day, our company has too little revenue recently. ”
Although the movie she made was released at a peak in September, it was not released by her company after all, but only participated in dividends. In the time when she didn't shoot other films, the company's income could only rely on the D and peripheral hair of her previous films.
That's why she attaches so much importance to the cutting-edge plan, because she doesn't want the whole company to revolve around her, and a normal company must have other income to develop better.
