Chapter Twenty-Eight: Two Queens
"Behind me?" Arnhorne Milkan, who was rumored to be an "Israeli spy" in Hollywood circles, turned back strangely and saw a middle-aged man standing behind him, who was not Sid's bodyguard captain Rem!
“Boss。 Seeing a few people looking over, Rem, who had quietly moved behind Arnone Milkan, couldn't help but nod indifferently, and then turned to leave.
"Oh——! it looks like you've got a very good bodyguard too, Mr. Leon. Arnhorne Milkan said to Sid with a smile.
"It's over, I'm just suspicious of people, I don't doubt it. Sid replied with a smile.
"Then let's sit down and talk. Arnhorne Milkan said after shaking hands with Sid.
————————————————————
Arnhorne Milcan, although he is not as famous and arrogant as Jerry Bruckheimer or Harvey Weinstein, is a figure to be reckoned with in Hollywood.
Of course, for those who love urban legends, the name Arnhorne Milkan is always associated with "Israeli spy" or "Mossad".
As a low-key figure who is comfortable in Hollywood film circles, Arnhorne Milkan believes that "the best image is no image".
This is definitely an outlier in Hollywood, which likes to be in the limelight. Therefore, since he entered Hollywood in the late 70s, the mystery of his body has not weakened.
One of the most widespread is the rumor that Ali told Sid about "Israeli arms spies".
Even putting aside his mysterious espionage color, since entering Hollywood in the late 70s, Arnold Milkan has produced films such as "Pretty Woman", "Once Upon a Time in America", "Natural Born Killer", "Fight Club" and "L.A. Confidential" and other famous masterpieces in film history, and it was he who single-handedly pushed Xiao Lizi to the throne of Oscar.
And Sid's meeting with him today is, of course, not just to satisfy curiosity, and a Mossad spy does not need Sid to spend so much effort to meet.
Sid's real purpose today is "You want to hire me as the producer of The Departed?" asked Arnhorne Milkan curiously.
"Not bad. Sid nodded, "Because I heard from Mr. De Niro about your contributions to Once Upon a Time in America, I wanted to use your power on Once Upon a Time." ”
"Yes, sorry. I want to ask you why you want me to produce "The Departed"?" Arnhorne Milkan asked with some confusion, "I believe that with Mr. Leonhardt's current power, you can find any producer, and there are even many excellent producers within Fire Lion Pictures." ”
"And, as far as I know, Mr. Leon, your movies were all in charge of your company's insiders. Why are you looking for someone else this time?"
Arnone Milkan's words made Sid smile slightly, and he looked at the high-ranking Israeli agent who later revealed himself as a spy, and the rare demon eyes stared at Arnone Milkan with embarrassment, and the other party, an old fritter over fifty years old, also calmly accepted Sid's gaze.
The two looked at each other for only a moment, but they both
"Fresh blood. Sid smiled and said, "Fire Lion Pictures is really doing a good job at the moment, whether it is a low-budget or a large production, it is running very well, whether it is ordinary employees or Philheimer (CEO of Fire Lion Pictures) has played an important role. ”
"But if we want to move forward, we need to absorb new ideas, new ideas. Sid's words made Arnhorne Milkan think, "Moreover, compared to the stars in front of the stage, the heroes behind the scenes who can really create a good movie are the focus of my attention." ”
"It seems that the success of the Fire Lion is not accidental. Arnhorne Milkan looked at Sid, who was young, but showed the coercion of his superiors in his gestures, and couldn't help but sigh.
Sure enough, it was a hero from ancient times, and he couldn't help but think in his heart. An elitist through and through, Arnhorne Milkan has always favored geniuses who are out of the ordinary.
He has a close relationship with behind-the-scenes elites such as Spielberg and Martin Scorsese, as well as front-of-stage stars such as Robert De Niro and Xiao Lizi.
In fact, at the beginning, it was Robert De Niro who recommended Arnone Milkan to Sid after learning that he had not appointed a general producer for "The Departed".
In a short period of time, Arnhorne Milkan also realized that Sid was by no means an ordinary young Hollywood celebrity, and he had more of a strong aura as a founder and operator than a star.
"Whether it's an accident or not, we'll see you later. Sid smiled faintly, "Fire Lion can work with your company Regency Production to produce The Departed, just like with Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer's production companies." ”
"Of course, in the case of The Departed, you and your team don't just work as a producer. Sid smiled faintly.
"I know, you mean Ao, right? Arnhorne Milkan nodded incomprehensibly.
"Not bad. Sid nodded, "In the past, this work was all taken care of by Fire Lion's internal and Ali teams, but in the past two years, you probably know my film results." ”
Sid's "Earth Thunder" and "Juno" in the past two years, among which "Juno", which won the Best Original Screenplay Award in "history", even failed again, which made Sid and Fire Lion feel disgraced.
So in order to turn the situation around, Sid and Ali accepted the recommendation of Robert De Niro and wanted to meet Arnone Milkan.
As the man who made Xiao Li Ziyi's dream of being an actor come true in "history", Arnhorne Milkan has an eye for developing movies and has great courage. As it turned out, his skills during the awards season were no less than Harvey Weinstein's, the uncrowned king of the awards season for more than two decades.
And finding a strong producer who is easy to use is an indispensable need for any well-known director. Henry now has to focus on the expanding production business of Fire Lion Pictures, and on the other hand, he has to serve as the royal producer of Sid's commercial blockbusters.
Therefore, it has become essential to find a new film producer, or rather, a non-commercial film.
And now it seems that Arnhorne Milkan, who is not inferior to the Weinstein faction, has become the best choice.
