Chapter 51: I Must Get Him!

On Melrose Avenue in Hollywood, at the headquarters of Paramount Pictures, the company's president, Shirley, is chatting with friends who have come to visit.

Shirley took an elegant sip of coffee and asked Jerry Bruckheimer, who was sitting across from her, "Jerry, I heard that you guys are running another big production?" ”

Jerry replied, "It's almost ready now, and filming will start by November at the latest." ”

Shirley was a little surprised, she didn't expect them to move so quickly, but she still politely said to Jerry, "Wow, congratulations, if you need my help, you can just say it." ”

Jerry habitually shook his hair that wasn't too long, and smiled, "Of course, we've been friends for decades. ”

Shirley raised her beautiful coffee cup and touched it with him, and then couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is it still an action movie?" Like "Brave Island"? ”

When it comes to movies, Jerry's words box was immediately opened, and he said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Of course, you know mine, either you don't make it, or you must make the best movie." ”

Shirley nodded and said approvingly, "On this point, our philosophy is on the same page. ”

"Let me guess, is it still Sean in the lead?"

Jerry smiled and shook his head.

"Is that Nicholas?"

This time, Jerry nodded and said, "You know he's the best actor in Hollywood, and we've had a great time working together, and I thought of him when I first started working." ”

Hearing that Jerry chose the actor to be Cage, Shirley frowned and complained: "It's a shame, I have a film here, and I want to ask him to star in it." ”

Jerry shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression, "I just called him"

Unable to stand his sneering, Shirley sneered, "Hey, old friend, you're still so hateful. ”

Jerry laughed and said, "Haha, how come? ”

Then he explained: "Actually, I came here to ask you for help. ”

Shirley put down the coffee cup in her hand, "Tell me, what can I do for you?" ”

"Now this film still lacks a good action director, but I can't find a suitable one for a while."

Shirley was a little surprised, "Will you still not find an action director?" ”

Jerry said helplessly: "The one who was originally scheduled had a little trouble, and the others either couldn't open the schedule or didn't meet my requirements, but I didn't expect to be stumped by this matter." ”

Listening to his words, Shirley said thoughtfully: "This is really a big problem, if there is no suitable action director for an action movie, it is obviously not suitable." ”

"Don't worry Jerry, let me think."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Shirley opened the door and saw that it was Paul, and did not want to let him in, but stood at the door of the office and asked, "Paul, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Paul asked angrily, "I'm here to ask you why my application was denied?" ”

Shirley was a little unhappy, and said in a stern tone: "This is my decision, and I must be responsible for the company." ”

Paul became even more angry when he heard this, and exclaimed, "Just because of that damn movie? But this time is different from the last time, this time I can guarantee that I will make a beautiful comeback and surprise everyone! ”

She had heard this countless times, so she said impatiently, "Paul, would you please be professional?" Don't fool me with any more high-sounding words. ”

"What?"

"You say I'm lying?"

"Okay, then I'll show you!"

Paul was so irritated that he patted his chest angrily, then stomped his foot and turned away.

Shirley looked at his back and said with a cold face: "It's really inexplicable, it seems that I have to re-evaluate his professionalism." ”

Although Jerry didn't know what was going on, he still politely asked, "Shirley, did I disturb your work?" ”

Shirley hurriedly said, "No, it's just a self-righteous guy." ”

After saying that, he closed the office door with a "pop".

But not long after she sat down, and before she could say a word, she heard a knock at the door again.

After saying sorry to Jerry, Shirley opened the door again and saw that it was Paul again, still holding the laptop that the company had configured for him, and her face suddenly turned cold: "I won't approve your application, don't bother me again!" ”

This time, Paul said very calmly: "I only need a minute, and if you watch this video and are still indifferent, I will resign." ”

Shirley was taken aback, "Are you crazy?" ”

Even if Paul's investment in the last film failed, Shirley never thought of firing him, and there was no malice in rejecting his application this time, just normal work.

In fact, she still valued Paul very much, but she didn't expect him to resign for this, so she said angrily: "Okay, then I'll give you a minute, I hope you can remember what you said." ”

So, Paul walked into Shirley's office, said sorry to Jerry sitting on the couch, then turned the computer to Shirley and Jerry's side, and said, "Watch this video and you'll know what kind of bad decision you made!" ”

Shirley was really angry at Paul's rudeness, knowing that his good friend was watching, and she decided that if Paul couldn't satisfy her this time, she would definitely kick him out of the company without mercy.

Before clicking on the video, Shirley asked again, "Is one minute enough?" ”

Paul was really relieved, and he stiffened his neck and replied confidently, "I won't need half a minute!" ”

Shirley clicked on the video of the police besieging the drug dealers, and then stared at the screen expressionlessly, although Jerry sitting next to him didn't know what was going on, he also craned his neck curiously to watch the fun.

But when he saw it, he was immediately attracted by the scene in the video, and saw a modified Hummer SUV speeding down the street, followed by more than a dozen cars and pickup trucks.

As the camera pulled, dozens of police cars appeared in the next moment, and they were violently surrounding the Humvee team.

This is a set of high-altitude overhead shots, which makes people have the most intuitive understanding of the strength of the two parties at once, and at the same time full of anticipation for what is about to happen.

Just as the two convoys were about to collide, the leading modified Humvee suddenly increased its horsepower, rushed onto the sidewalk with a strange scream, and then rushed out of the police encirclement with the two cars that followed closely behind, and roared away.

Immediately after the camera turned, the car following the Hummer lost its backbone, and immediately ran away in a panic.

Shirley nodded her head while watching the video, but she regretted that she didn't see the collision between the two teams.

So, Shirley raised her head and said to Paul, "Paul, the shooting is very good, I approved your application." ”

"Hopefully, next time, I'll see the hot scene of the team's fierce collision."

Paul also calmed down his excitement at this time, and said with a smile: "My boss, I'll take a look at the other two clips." ”

Shirley's interest was also raised, and she opened the next video with some anticipation, she hoped to see a more popular and exciting scene!

When she saw the police car roaring into the air, Shirley's face finally showed a smile, and this was the wonderful scene she wanted to catch the audience's attention.

Immediately afterward, the camera slows down and a soothing piece of music plays.

"Huh?"

This way of dealing with it made Jerry feel very pleasantly surprised, and he looked forward to the rest of the content.

Later, when he saw that the police car had gracefully flipped twice in the air and accurately smashed into an empty car on the side of the road, it had turned from surprise to shock.

He was sure that this was definitely not made with special effects, because there was always a policeman in the car, and the reaction of this policeman at the moment when the two cars collided was absolutely real!

The video was still playing, and at this time, the camera perspective had shifted from the ground to the air, and I saw that the police car did not stop after falling, but turned in a very magical horizontal direction, and finally stopped completely when it was parallel to the car below.

"This, how is this possible?"

After watching the whole video, Jerry turned his head to look at Shirley in great surprise and exclaimed incredibly.

And Shirley was also looking at Jerry in shock, this is beyond her imagination and cognition, this is the most realistic original shot without any special effects!

In her memory, no one had ever been able to shoot such an effect without any special effects!

The two looked at each other, and then both looked at Paul, who was sitting across from him, hoping to get an answer from him.

Paul pointed to the computer on the table with a smug face, and reminded with a smile: "There is another video, don't you want to watch it?" ”

Their reaction was already expected by Paul, and it was exactly the same expression as when he first saw the videos.

"Haha, how's that? You're scared too, aren't you? ”

"Ace system zuΓ² man Jerry? I'm afraid you've never seen anything like this in your life, right? ”

"Ke boy, I took advantage of your majesty to raise my eyebrows today! Haha, it's a great feeling. ”

Shirley didn't bother to talk to Paul, but couldn't wait to open the last video.

After watching the video, Jerry couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart anymore, stood up violently, pointed to the computer on the table, and asked loudly, "Who is it?" ”

"Who made this?"

"Sue me sΓΉ who is he? I'm going to have to bring him to my crew! ”

Paul grimaced, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jerry, although you are the most famous ace producer in the industry, I can't tell you anything until I get permission." ”

Shirley was very pleased with Paul's expression, gave him an encouraging look, and then said to him, "It's nothing, even if you don't tell him, he will soon find out." ”

Then he explained: "And Jerry has been a friend of mine for many years, and he's worried about the action director right now, and I think you'd like to help him, right, Paul?" ”

Jerry glanced at Shirley gratefully, then grabbed Paul's hand and said excitedly, "Mr. Paul, please sue me, I must get him!" ”

"I've got to get him!"
