Chapter 304: Both Swords Are Free
"The crew of "Magic Woman" invited you to be the heroine?"
Hearing the answer given by Charlize Theron, Murphy frowned slightly, which was not the same as what he learned from the CAA, in the information given by the CAA, Charlize Theron was in contact with the crew of "Northern Vice", which had been postponed for some reason, and wanted to fight for the heroine in it, and he also made preparations for this before he came.

This caught Murphy off guard, but his head spun quickly.
Charlize Theron tidied up her short blonde hair a little, looked at Murphy, and frankly speaking, the role of Amy is much more attractive than the heroine in "Magic Woman", that is, a standard vase role, and she does not need to work hard, and the role itself is hardly attractive.
The role is unattractive, but it doesn't mean that the crew is unattractive, the salary offered by the crew of "Magic Woman Warrior" is her highest so far, and it is also a number that cannot be refused, she ruined her image to play Erin Warnos like that, not only for the Oscar statuette, but also for the skyrocketing personal value after getting the statuette.
Her previous salary was only three million dollars, and the PR campaign of the last awards season cost a lot of money, not to mention anything else, just getting Roger Albert to shout that not awarding Best Actress to her would be the biggest scandal of the Oscars, and she spent a lot of money.
Winning the Best Actress Xiaojinren, these investments are worth it, but they also emptied her pockets, if she wants to put on the pomp of the Oscar actress, and wants to maintain a glamorous life, it takes a huge amount of money, so she has even borrowed a sum of money from the bank for emergency, and now she urgently needs to earn back the money invested in the Oscars, and she wants to earn more.
Charlize Theron was silent for a short time, and Murphy was silent for a while, as he pondered how he could convince the South African diamond.
Although the role of Amy is not indispensable, among the actors who can be found in a short period of time, Murphy believes that Charlize Theron is the most suitable, and her salary is relatively low.
Why would she prefer "Magical Warrior" over "Gone Girl"?
This is the question that Murphy is thinking about, judging from his previous works, Charlize Theron's vision for the selection of films is really not very good, if it weren't for his outstanding appearance and fashion presence, I'm afraid it would have been unknown to everyone a long time ago, but what is "Magic Woman"? It's a big bad movie, will she not notice it at all?
And Charlize Theron told him before that the director is still a woman, and Hollywood has developed until now, and there has never been a female director who has directed a commercial film that can be a super blockbuster.
Charlize Theron can't see any of this, and her agent doesn't know either?
Murphy knew enough before coming that Charlize Theron fired the first agent who brought her into Hollywood because she couldn't get rid of the image of a vase, and it was the current agent who tried to persuade her to star in the film "The Devil Woman", and then she had the glory of the Oscars.
Such an agent can't be a short-sighted person, Bill Rothes got the news that his agent was inclined to "Gone Girl", but Charlize Theron himself wanted to take "Magic Woman Warrior" more.
Murphy shook his head slightly, except for the absence of a household registration book, Charlize Theron is no worse than those top Hollywood actresses, but she has always been half popular and not purple, except for "The Female Devil", the past, present and future, there have been no representative works that can be done for a long time, which can only say one thing.
Her vision in choosing films is not proportional to her appearance at all.
Frankly, Charlize Theron made a very good impression on Murphy during this brief contact, a man who seemed very open-minded, with a force of nature, bright, beautiful, and intimidating.
With a body comparable to a supermodel and a sculptural face, it is not an exaggeration to call her "Hollywood's Venus", and it is no wonder that Stephen Hawking once said on a talk show that it is impossible for you to date Charlize Theron, even in an infinite parallel universe......
But these have nothing to do with the selection of films and the selection of characters.
It is no exaggeration to say that Charlize Theron is also a person who has been cursed by the Oscar, why is there such a thing as the Oscar curse? Regardless of the audience's factors, just look at the actors themselves, one of the important points is undoubtedly to win the Oscar, these actresses who have reached the peak of their careers, in order to get a lot of high salaries, often take on roles and scripts that they can't read before.
Just like Julia Roberts, who would go to a purely male movie and play a supporting role for a group of men, what is the most important reason that can impress her to do this?
The answer is obvious, and the analogy can be drawn to Charlize Theron.
In just a few tens of seconds, Murphy had a clear analysis and judgment.
"It's a shame not to be able to work with an actress as good as you." Murphy sighed, as if very, very regretful, "I was still thinking that we could work together once next year during the awards season, and Twentieth Century Fox would give me maximum support, and you have experience in this area......"
He shook his head, "That's a shame." ā
Charlize Theron's eyes kept flickering, but Murphy didn't stop, and said, "Bill recommended a lot of people to me before, Nicole Kidman, Julia Roberts, but I vetoed them all, and none of them are the type of actors I like." ā
Charlize Theron has heard of these things, and this is the reason why she has not agreed to participate in auditions, in order to participate in an audition, actors have to do a lot of preparation, but in the face of competition from actors of the level of Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman, these preparations are very likely to become useless......
Now it sounded as if Murphy had vetoed them.
"Sally, you talked about the Magic Woman before." Murphy continued, "The heroine in it must be a vase. ā
This was obvious, and Charlize Theron did not need to deny it, and nodded slightly, "That's true." ā
"How many years did it take you to get rid of the image of a vase?" Murphy stared at her, "Why take a turn and go back to the old way again?" ā
"I ......" Charlize Theron doesn't seem to know what to say.
In order to get rid of the vase, she did not hesitate to fire the first agent who was very good to her, if she turned back, is it worth it?
"You said earlier that the director of the film was a woman? Until now, no female director in Hollywood has been able to achieve results in the field of commercial films. Murphy is just telling the basic facts, "You can be at great risk, and the failure of the film will inevitably affect the lead actor." ā
Murphy pointed to himself, "My first five films were all successful, and they were both box office and word-of-mouth successes!" ā
Charlize Theron's face grew more and more thoughtful, and even if she didn't speak, Murphy could see that the South African diamond was more hesitant than before.
Murphy continued to increase the weight, "Sally, you won the Oscar for Best Actress, and the outside world has always questioned it, thinking that you are not a victory in acting, but a little clever trick, and the judges of the academy are favored." These doubts are ridiculous, but they are also hurtful, and if your next film fails, this kind of voice will be overwhelming, and you want to see that happen? Don't you want to use a character and a film that can fully show your acting skills to slap these people in the face? ā
Charlize Theron bit her lip slightly.
"It's true that the investment in the entire project of "Gone Girl" is limited, and it is impossible to offer you such a high salary as "Magic Woman". Murphy knew that his previous words could only shake Charlize Theron, and the real key was still here, "But Sally, please think about it, can you really only rely on your salary for your income?" ā
Without waiting for Charlize Theron to answer, Murphy said, "The successful films you starred in, the role has a huge impact, you will continue to consolidate and improve your status in Hollywood, and the more endorsement contracts you can get, the more lucrative the endorsement contracts you can get!" Sally, you're a movie star, and your work and character are the foundation of everything you do. ā
He smiled and said confidently, ""Magic Woman will boost your financial income in the short term, but Gone Girl will help you throughout your acting career!" ā
In a situation like Charlize Theron, even if there is a lack of money, it can't be as short as Nicolas Cage, right?
"Murphy, you have a point." Charlize Theron only felt a little upset, his brain was not enough, and he wanted to find a quiet place to think about it, "Can you wait for me for a few days, I need to think about it." ā
"Of course." Murphy reached for his and Bill Rothes' business cards and handed them to Charlize Theron, "You can call these two numbers at any time." ā
Charles Theron took the business card, solemnly put it in his bag, and then said goodbye and left.
Watching the South African diamond go away, Murphy thought for a moment, took out his mobile phone and dialed Bill Rosith's number, asking him to continue to contact Charlize Theron's agent and the people around him, multi-pronged is the best way.
Just hung up the phone with Bill Rothes, Murphy's phone suddenly rang, and when he saw the number on the caller ID, he frowned slightly, it was a call from Natalie Portman.
After hesitating for a moment, Murphy didn't answer and hung up directly.

In the Hilton Hotel not far from Century City, Natalie Portman put away her phone and hammered the sofa hard, from using her cleverness to get the role of Matilda, to getting George Lucas to become Queen Amidala, she has been invincible every time, and she has never been rejected like this.
"If you don't answer the phone, I can go to you!"
When it comes to her career and future, she doesn't give up so easily, "Words are not a woman's only weapon, there is one more between her legs, every woman should learn to use it, once learned, your own man will become a sword in your hand like a stupid medieval knight, both swords are free!" (To be continued.) )
