Chapter 81: An Unreliable Secretary

PS: There is something to do in the past two days, so let's just change it for the time being, and it will resume on Monday.

After getting Michael, Tang Feng picked up the second data card, but a wry smile appeared on his face.

"Now that I think about it, I'd better hide you for the time being, my brain was too big just now, and Michael probably won't be willing to make that film. ”

"I just don't know if it's a good thing to dig you out twenty years in advance. ”

Immediately, Tang Feng laughed again, and said to himself teasingly: "I didn't expect that you are also a fat girl now, haha." ”

"If it weren't for the fact that all the players who made the cut would need to add an official information card, I wouldn't have thought it would be you. ”

On the top of the information card, there is a color photo of a fat girl with a sweet smile, and the name column next to it reads: Melissa McCarthy.

Tang Feng couldn't figure out which group she was selected from, anyway, it was definitely not the comic buying group he was in, otherwise he wouldn't have no impression at all.

If he hadn't seen the photo, he really didn't expect that twenty years before her fire, she would appear in her own audition, and she would actually be promoted!

Originally, Tang Feng originally wanted to make that ghost-hunting comedy, with low cost and high return, which was in line with his current situation, but later dismissed this idea.

After calling Melissa, Tang Feng took out Quentin's script and read it carefully.

Overall, the story of "Deadly Romance" is still very good, and Quentin racked his brains to write it.

But Tang Feng was not very satisfied with the description of some details, and when he saw that it was still early, he called Quentin over.

During the filming of "Killer Tragedy", for the convenience of work, the crew rented temporary apartments for Quentin, Pete, Monica and Yanush, as well as Affleck, Damon and George.

Although the filming has been completed now, their apartment has been renewed, so they usually live there, close to the company, and can come over at any time.

Soon, Quentin rushed to Tang Feng's office, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked eagerly: "Sean, are you planning to prepare the crew now?"

Tang Feng pointed to the sofa next to him, motioned for him to sit down first, and then said, "It's not in a hurry now, the funds haven't been in place yet, but it won't be a long time coming, are you ready?"

Quentin nodded heavily, and said excitedly: "I have made all the preparations, as soon as the crew is established, filming will start immediately!"

Tang Feng applauded, and then said, "Okay, then let's talk about the script now." ”

"I've just read your script carefully, and I have a few questions that I need to discuss with you. ”

Before he could finish speaking, Quentin took out a small notebook from his bosom and put it on his lap like a schoolboy in class, ready to record what he said.

His actions stunned Tang Feng, "This is ......"

"This guy is so reserved, but it gives me a sense of accomplishment. ”

Although Tang Feng was a little unaccustomed to being treated like this, he finally let Quentin do it.

He thinks it's good that this way, the boss has to have the boss's style, and with him as an example, others may be a little more disciplined.

Looking at Quentin with approving, Tang Feng leaned back in the chair and said domineeringly: "First question, I don't like the setting of the background movie. ”

"In your script, there are three background movies, and the part of "The True Color of Heroes" is changed to a scene of Chow Yun Fat's original bandit's hole. ”

"Remove the samurai movie from the movie theater and replace it with Bruce Lee's movie clip. ”

"The level 4 film in the third paragraph will be changed to an action movie by Jackie Chan (Cheng Long)!"

"The plot and lines involved, you can revise it after you go back, and remember to match the environment at the time. ”

Quentin carefully took note of what he said, and then said, "I have written it down, and I will correct it as quickly as possible." ”

Tang Feng nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, I know you like samurai movies, but I want to tell you, it's not a pure kung fu movie, I will let you make a real kung fu movie when I have the opportunity in the future." ”

Although Quentin's expression was unnatural, he still said gratefully: "Sean, thank you for the importance you value me, I will definitely not let you down." ”

Tang Feng waved his hand and smiled at him kindly, "Quentin, you don't have to be so restrained, I am not only your boss, but also your friend." ”

"So, I want our communication to be that interactive and candid. ”

"You also have to know that I value your talent, and I believe that you will become a first-class director. ”

Just when Quentin was excited, Tang Feng changed his words and said solemnly: "But!"

"This movie must be made according to my advice!"

"This is your first film, and I value it very much, and I'm going to invest $5 million in it, and you're going to make sure to make me at least 60 million at the box office!"

"As long as this movie can reach the passing line, you can shoot any movie you want in the future, even if you lose everything, I will pay for you!"

Quentin didn't know what to say, just nodded vigorously and said vaguely, "Thank you, Sean, you're the best boss!"

Although Quentin didn't say it, Tang Feng also saw that Quentin was a little embarrassed, so he sat on the sofa with him and said seriously: "Quentin, it's not that I'm too domineering, I hope you can understand my distress." ”

"Our company has just been established and can't withstand any storms, so for the time being, the main purpose is to make a profit. ”

"Take this movie as an example, you told everyone a beautiful love story, but you mixed it with some of your personal subjective expressions. ”

"For example, if you shoot some violent scenes, if you shoot like this, it will definitely be R-rated when the film is reviewed, or it will be NG-17. ”

"Coupled with the 4-level film shots in it, as well as the unbridled passionate scenes, do you think such a rating will not be good for the box office?"

"I know what you're thinking, you want to show real fighting, and the brutality of reality. ”

"Although the investment is not very much, we should also shoot this story according to the setting of an A-grade film. ”

"Instead, define it as a romantic comedy with a happy ending, focusing on the conflict of the plot rather than relying on violence and passion to attract attention. ”

"I think in this case, the box office should be good. ”

After saying his thoughts in one breath, Tang Feng sat aside, waiting for Quentin to digest and understand.

At this moment, a girl's voice sounded outside, "Excuse me, is there anyone here?"

Tang Feng opened the door and saw a girl in a loose oversized dress, standing in the middle of an empty office and looking around timidly.

So, he sent Quentin away, waved his hand and beckoned the girl in, "Melissa, didn't you let you come tomorrow afternoon, why did you come now?"

Melissa smiled innocently, then rubbed her hands and replied, "I, I'm so happy, I can't wait for tomorrow, I put down the phone and rushed over." ”

Tang Feng shook his head with a smile, pointed to the wall clock on the wall, and said, "It seems that you are still an impatient, and it has been less than two hours since you called......

"How much did it cost, and when you went to the accountant for reimbursement after you joined the company, you said that I said it. ”

"By the way, you live far away, and when you come to work on Monday, ask William for a dormitory. ”

"And ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Melissa interrupted him and asked with a puzzled face, "Join?"

"You just called me, right?"

"Am I in the wrong place, isn't this a film company?"

Tang Feng poured her coffee, then returned to the boss's chair, leaned back comfortably, and said, "That's right, this is the office of Hurricane Pictures, and I am the boss Shaun here." ”

"After reading your information, I think you are still very talented, but considering the actual situation, it is better for you to be my secretary for the time being. ”

"First, I am familiar with the company's environment, and secondly, I also follow the crew to accumulate more experience. ”

Melissa didn't expect that she rushed here excitedly, but she was just a secretary, and asked unwillingly, "Is it just a secretary?"

Tang Feng was amused by her aggrieved appearance, "Yes, that's it, haha." ”

Then he said: "Don't worry, it's only temporary, once you have the opportunity, I will definitely not bury your talent." ”

"Maybe, you'll become a big star in the future, do a good job. ”

Obviously, Melissa didn't believe his words, frowned and glared at him and wanted to leave, but had already reached the door, but still stopped.

asked Tang Feng, "Are you really the boss of this company?"

"Yes, haven't you seen 'The Killer's Tragedy'? I'm still the director of that movie. ”

Melissa replied, "No, I don't usually have any friends, so I don't go to the theater to watch movies." ”

Tang Feng asked very strangely: "You don't watch movies, why did you go to the audition?"

Melissa showed her trademark giggle again, "Well, hehe, I often watch movies on TV, and when I hear people say you're holding auditions, I'm going to join in the fun." ”

Tang Feng patted his head helplessly, "Okay, so what do you think now?"

"Stay, or do you want to go home and watch your movie?"

Melissa shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile: "Since you are really the boss, of course I want to stay, isn't it just for you to be a secretary, as long as you don't forget to promise me something." ”

Tang Feng waved his hand, "Okay, now you can go back, remember to come to the onboarding procedures on Monday morning." ”

"Okay, then we'll see you on Monday. ”

After saying that, she turned around and left Tang Feng's office.

After a while, a howl came from the hallway, "Haha, I've finally got a job!"

Hearing this howl, Tang Feng suddenly felt a sudden burst in his heart: "What a crazy woman!"

"I'd better change the secretary, just send her to William, he should have a secretary too......"
