Chapter 141: High-Concept Movie

After a month and a half of high-intensity and intense shooting, especially in the later month of location shooting, the actors were a little better, but the dozens of staff members of the crew were already exhausted. Therefore, the celebration carnival after the closure of the mirror also became extraordinarily unrestrained because of the sudden relaxation under the pressure of a long time, and the hall was noisy, and from time to time someone would let out a few high-pitched ghost screams.

Eric just laughed at the situation, after all, everyone had been depressed for a month, and now it was understandable that he was a little out of shape. Most of the actors received the invitation of Pai duì, and several leading actors also came to Pai duì scene.

However, after seeing the chaotic scene, Cruise, who held his own identity, only stayed for less than twenty minutes before leaving, although he was born at the bottom, Cruise has now automatically classified himself as a group of people at the top of the pyramid, and of course it is impossible to frolic with this group of crew members. Some of the older crew members and actors have also left one after another. With Eric's mental age, it is true that he can't enjoy this kind of carnival, but as a director, he has to stay.

In the whole hall, Eric is the youngest, although when Eric scolds others on the set, he will look very oppressive, but in other cases he still looks like a harmless young man, plus the crew members are more familiar with Eric's personality and know that he is a person who can afford to joke, so it is logical that he has become the object of everyone's coaxing.

After being poured a few bottles of beer for various reasons, Eric broke away from the crowd under the pretext of urinating, and walked out of the banquet hall to the bathroom at the end of the corridor.

"Hey, Becky," Eric greeted with a smile, "Did you have a good time?"

Brooke Whisper smiled sweetly, "It's okay, it's a little noisy, though." As the prettiest woman on the pie, Brooke Rose naturally became the object of everyone's attention, and Brooke Rose enjoyed the feeling of being sought after, but Eric's attitude towards her was not salty.

After seeing Eric say hello and turning to leave, Brooke Smalls hurriedly stuffed the tissue in her hand into the trash can, followed in three or two steps, and reached out to pull Eric.

"Brooke, what's the matter?" said Erik turned.

Brooke Whisper hesitated for a moment before saying, "I just, just wanted to say thank you, Eric, for giving me the role of Yoyo." ”

This thank you has no polite meaning at all, since Brooke Smalls was revealed to have joined the heroine, although many media have talked about her being nominated for the Golden Sour Plum Award several times in a row, ironically saying that it is impossible for her to get this role with her strength, there must be some inside story in it, but Brooke Shield's popularity is also an indisputable fact again, the media's attention to her has increased rapidly, and paparazzi appeared around her again when she went out, this situation has not happened for many years, and the last time was when she was close to Michael Jackson a few years ago。 What's more, this attention can bring her real financial benefits, and she has received several advertising endorsement invitations during this time.

"It's nothing, Brooke, your appearance in Xiàn is still very good, I believe that after the movie is released, your character image will definitely leave a deep impression on the audience. ”

"So," Brooke Shields looked at Eric expectantly, hearing Eric's compliment, and asked, "Eric, will we ever have a chance to work together again in the future?"

"This ......" Eric hesitated for a moment, he didn't expect the girl to ask so bluntly, if he told the truth, then he would definitely not cooperate with you again, but this kind of hurtful words Eric would definitely not say it explicitly: "Brooke, you have to understand, this requires the right opportunity." ”

Brooke Silk's expression quickly dimmed, and any man's expression made it a little unbearable for any man to see it, this is simply a goblin.

Eric looked at the girl's expression, and even had a faint sense of guilt, thought about it, and then tentatively comforted: "Brooke, I think you should focus on independent movies next, and first choose a few better scripts to hone your acting skills." ”

Brooke Smalls has been acting in movies since she was twelve years old, until she got this role, she has basically been cruising in the independent film circle for more than ten years, she has long understood that circle, if you want to stand out from the independent film circle, the most important thing is to have outstanding acting skills, and win some important film awards with her acting skills, and then she can break into the mainstream film circle.

But this road is not going to work for her at all, because she is so beautiful, even if she has a little acting skills, she will be covered up by that face and devilish figure, not to mention that she does not have that kind of acting strength, even if she returns to the independent film circle, she can only play the role of a vase, so there is no future at all.

Of course, Brooke Whisper understands that even if she wants to play a vase, she should play a vase in a big movie, and even a supporting role in a big thing is more influential than the main character in a small movie.

It's a pity that although Brooke Smalls has some fame, she is only a beautiful star, which is not enough to arouse the interest of the mainstream Hollywood film circle, there are many actresses in this circle who have both beauty and acting skills, and few large-scale zuò movies dare to invite her, a vase that has been nominated several times by Jin Sour Plum, to take risks, and Eric can be regarded as the first director who dares to 'eat crabs' in recent years.

"Eric, I know what I'm capable of, and if I go back to the independent film industry, I'll never get ahead. You...... Do you have time tomorrow, maybe I can treat you to dinner and show my appreciation. ”

"No need, Brooke," Eric refused, noticing the girl's embarrassed look, and hurriedly added: "To be honest, after the release, I believe that with the influence of your role, you will definitely receive a lot of movie appointments, as long as you can carefully choose the script, even if it is a vase role in several movies, as long as the movie is a big hit, you will definitely be among the ranks of A-list actresses, so there is no need to pin your hopes on me." ”

Brooke Shields was originally very disappointed by Eric's refusal, but after hearing Eric's last words, it suddenly became clear that although the girl is not very smart, she can still figure out these things, if she makes herself popular, she really doesn't have to go back to make any small-budget movies.

"Thank you, then, Eric," Brooke Smalls thought about it, and finally looked satisfied, as if the series of expressions of loss had not yet appeared on her face. After the girl finished speaking, her beautiful eyes blinked twice, and she suddenly stepped forward to hold Eric's shoulder, and kissed him lightly on the corner of the mouth, seeing Eric's expression a little stunned because of his sudden sneak attack, the girl showed a bright smile and turned to walk towards the banquet hall.

Eric touched the corners of his mouth, shook his head and smiled as he walked towards the banquet hall.

"Eric, it's been so long, can't it be any glamorous encounter?" Seeing Eric appear, Tom Hanks walked up, handed Eric a glass of champagne, and teased Brooke Sinunu, who was chatting with someone not far away.

Eric took the champagne and took a sip of it, giving him a smile that you understand.

Hanks also showed a wicked smile, and the two frowned a few times in disgust, and Hanks only slightly retracted his expression, and was about to be misunderstood if he continued to joke: "Eric, do you have eyebrows for my next movie, I'm waiting." ”

As he spoke, Hanks also stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of Eric's eyes, as if to remind him not to forget the promise of the five movies that had a box office of over 100 million, and Eric did not count them in the five movies in the previous agreement.

"The script is already there," Eric said, "and after the dubbing is done, you can prepare." ”

Hanks is also a workaholic, especially in the past few years, he will receive two or three movies every year, which is definitely diligent in the actor circle, and when he heard Eric's words, Hanks also came to the spirit: "Tell me about the plot first, okay?"

"Let's go over there," Eric pointed to the couch in the corner, where a man and a woman had just left to walk to the dance floor, Hanks nodded, and the two walked over.

"It's also a romantic comedy, and it's called a script that I came up with when I went to New York. ”

"Romantic comedy?" Hanks hesitantly touched his face, a few years ago, Hanks was still a little handsome, and it was reasonable to appear in romantic comedies, but after the age of thirty, Hanks is basically not related to the word handsome now.

"Eric, do you think my image is appropriate for this kind of movie?"

"Don't worry, this isn't your average romantic comedy between young men and women," Eric explains, "and you're going to be playing a single father in a movie. ”

"Single father?"

"Okay, don't interrupt, Tom, will you listen to me finish the story?"

"OK!" Hanks raised his hand.

"The story goes that after his wife died unexpectedly, the infatuated Sam couldn't forget his wife for a long time, so he decided to leave the sad place of Chicago and moved to Seattle with his eight-year-old son, Jonah. A year later, on Christmas, his son Jonah called an emotional hotline to find a new wife for his father, who still hadn't come out of the shadow of bereavement. Coincidentally, this emotional call connects Sam's family with a woman named Annie who is far away in New York. Although Anne is already engaged, she is moved by Sam's infatuation and can't help but write a letter to Sam. The letter fell into the hands of Sam's son Jonah, who felt that Anne was a good match for his father, so he took it upon himself to reply to his father and agreed that the two would meet on the top floor of the Empire State Building in New York on Human Day. ”

After listening to Eric's narration, Hanks blurted out.

Eric nodded: "There will be a lot of scenes in this movie that will pay homage." ”

"Eric, based on what you said, will the story of this movie be a little simpler?"

Eric smiled and spread his hands: "Tom, I'm just telling you a story, this is a standard high-concept movie, the story is simple and clear, and even a little cliché is the main feature of high-concept movies." If a movie wants to be a big hit, it must first have a simple and clear story line, and the rest depends on the strength of the director and actors. ”
