"Hello, Mr. Steinberg."

In the temporary reception room of Studio 3, Jessica Alba greeted Erica Steinberg, who had just come over, at the behest of her agent, and she was about to sit down when there were footsteps at the door, and the director, whom she had met several times, walked in.

I've met a few times before, and I'm an acquaintance, and Jessica Alba heard her agent mention that due to the successive successes of the first two films, Murphy Stanton has a heavyweight say in casting.

"Hi, Murphy." She smiled sweetly, "We meet again." ”

"Hello, Jesse." Murphy smiled and nodded at her, sitting next to Erica Steinberg across from her and the agent, "Nice to see you again." ”

Seeing Murphy's smile and hearing this familiar greeting, Jessica Alba smiled even sweeter.

The audition a few days ago was supposed to be very smooth, and Murphy Stanton, who hosted the audition, was also very satisfied with her image and performance.

She looked at Murphy, from the first time she met him, to the chat that night when she sent him, to the contact during the audition, the other party's attitude was very good, and she seemed to appreciate herself, and those excessive conditions in the negotiation should not be his idea.

Thinking of this, Jessica Alba turned her head and glanced at Erica Steinberg, these Jews always like to mess around, suppressing black and Latin actors.

Jessica Alba looked at Murphy again, thinking of the happy time they had together, "He should be his supporter, right?" ”

"We have no objection to the remuneration in the previous negotiations,"

The negotiations were undoubtedly handled by Erica Steinberg, who was the first to speak, "but the conditions for the independent dressing room, one-on-one makeup artist and special car transportation requested by Miss Alba were unacceptable to the crew's limited budget. ”

Hearing this, Jessica Alba gradually put away the smile on her face, but did not speak, this kind of negotiation itself is a place for agents to play, and these so-called conditions are also to increase the bargaining chips, and they are not necessary.

"The others can be cancelled," her agent began, "but Miss Alba is not good at driving, and the crew still has to provide a special car." ”

The other party made a concession, and Erica Steinberg hesitated and nodded, "We can rent a car for Miss Alba." ”

These are minor issues, and disagreements are easy to resolve, and after negotiating these corners, Erica Steinberg moved on to the issue of the scale of roles and actors' performances that were the most disagreeing between the two sides.

"The film adaptation will strictly follow the style and setting of the comics," Erica Steinberg said, "There are a lot of nude shots of Nancy in the comics, and the crew wanted to recreate these scenes." ”

"I'm sorry," the agent immediately refused, "Miss Alba won't play any roles with a potential dew point, which is also inconsistent with Miss Alba's own positioning." ”

Erica Steinberg glanced at Murphy and shook her head, "It seems that our negotiations are out of reach. ”

Hearing this, Jessica Alba suddenly interjected, "Can I say a few words." ”

Erica Steinberg nodded, and Murphy made a gesture of please.

"I've read the original comics and studied all the scenes related to Nancy," Jessica Alba said in a crisp voice that sounded quite pleasant and charming, "and those scenes were nudity for the sake of nudity, not a plot necessity." ”

She looked at Murphy deliberately, "Even if it's not nudity, it won't affect the plot, will it?" ”

Murphy smiled and spoke slowly, "It really won't affect the plot." ”

Jessica Alba gave Murphy an extremely sweet and charming smile, and it seemed that he was indeed supporting himself.

Seeing this unusually charming smile, Murphy said, "But it will affect the audience's interest in watching the movie." ”

No one can deny that in R-rated films, some well-set nude scenes of beautiful women can hook the nerves of male audiences.

Nancy is a ******** in the first place, and nudity is not nudity for the sake of nudity, which is completely consistent with the character's identity and setting.

He...... He even said that? Jessica Alba had no idea that such words would come out of Murphy's mouth.

She had always thought it was a request from the producer or Frank Miller, but now it doesn't seem to be that way at all.

In an instant, Jessica Alba understood that she had entered a misunderstanding, she only saw that the other party seemed to get along well with her, but ignored how Erica Steinberg would not let go of her mouth when negotiating without the director's insistence.

Sure enough, the young director on the other side said, "Miss Alba, I hope you can make a decision as much as possible." ”

Jessica Alba hesitated, but said, "I refuse to shoot any nudity. ”

Murphy spread his hands, no longer looking at her, and instead said to Erica Steinberg, "Try to get in touch with Sophia Vergara's agent." ”

With that, he stood up, left Jessica Alba and her agent alone, and turned and walked out of the makeshift meeting room.

If he could, Murphy would also like to use Jessica Alba, her appearance conditions are very good, but she can't accept ****, I can only say sorry, a beautiful woman is just the right ****, it is a good publicity point and hype point, especially the DVD released in the later stage, there is no super-large-scale scene, and it will also lack a selling point.

Although this is not a film he invests in, not to mention the sharing agreement signed, the higher the box office of the film in the future, the better the DVD sales, and the more beneficial it will be to him as a director.

With no hope of winning a major award in the short term, commercial success is the best way to improve your status in Hollywood.

As for Sophia Vergara he mentioned, she is less famous than Jessica Alba, she is also an actress with Latin blood, her appearance is not as sweet as Jessica Alba, but her body is equally sexy and hot, and the previous audition was also good.

If it weren't for the preconceived impression, Murphy might have liked her more.

Who exactly is used for this kind of character, as long as there is not much difference in appearance, there is not much difference, Nancy is a ******** in the comics, in addition to being a key figure in driving the plot, like other female characters, she is also attracted by Frank Miller with large-scale pictures.

Murphy has spoken to Frank Miller before, and he admits it, otherwise why are there so many sexy female characters in comics who wear s.m leather suits and hold ropes or leather whips?

As Murphy concluded, comics have some things in common with movies in some ways, such as the 'fist' representing violence and the 'pillow' representing a large scale, which are both selling points that can attract people to watch.

Of course, if Jessica Alba has super appeal or extremely good acting skills, Murphy can also consider it, but even Jessica Alba at her peak does not have these.

It seems that Jessica Alba wants to go all the way to the dark in Sister Sweet's style...... Murphy can easily guess why Jessica Alba insists on not acting in ****, which has nothing to do with morality or anything, but does not match her own and future positioning.

It is taboo to take the route of a sunny and pure sweet sister, and to appear in a large-scale ****.

To put it bluntly, her positioning for the present and future is a youth idol.

It's a pity that the limitations of such a line are too great, not to mention, the shelf life is still extremely short, even if it is a pure vase that can only be coquettish, it has a longer shelf life than that of youth idols.

Back in the office, Murphy was still secretly sighing, such an excellent vase, it won't take a few years for the road to get narrower and narrower, and finally go to some small zuò to make soy sauce.

It's a waste.

After watching Jessica Alba herself and the previous makeup audition, Murphy has to admit that the talent of this actress cannot be better, as long as the opportunity is right, there is no need for too good acting skills, and becoming popular is not a problem at all.

If it can appear in some mainstream commercial masterpieces, it is not impossible to replace Meghan Fox in the future and become the No. 1 vase in the universe.

But if you want to do that, you have to be like Megan Fox, you have to be a showman. Sao, as much as possible in the lens of the wind. Sao, I don't mind starring in some large-scale dramas.

Of course, this also requires a director or producer like Michael Bay who knows how to infinitely magnify all the advantages of a vase actress.

The phone rang suddenly, interrupting Murphy's thoughts, and he picked it up and looked at it, it was Paul Wilson, picked it up and pressed the answer button.

"Boss, Miss Alba wants to talk to you privately."

Have you changed your mind? Murphy thinks it may not be big, and now Jessica Alba's career is on the rise, and it is said that there is also the help of James Cameron, which is far from the point where she can't find a suitable role.

Murphy thought for a moment, "Let her come to my office." ”

Hung up the phone, and after waiting for a few minutes, there was a knock on the door, Murphy said please come in, and Jessica Alba pushed the door and walked in.

"Please be seated," Murphy gestured to the chair across from the desk, "Is there anything else, Jesse?" ”

He greeted him with a smile and familiarity, as if it was his friend.

But Jessica Alba doesn't see it that way anymore, and from the firm and resolute attitude of the other party in the meeting room negotiation, she faintly sees the shadow of James Cameron's words.

The difference is that James Cameron's face tells the people in the crew that I am a tyrant on the set; And the other party always has a sunny and warm smile similar to his own, and the other side is completely hidden underneath.

After the negotiations, she didn't leave immediately, but sent her agent away, wanting to talk to Murphy alone, from Max who won "The ******End of the World" in the hands of a competitor, to the heroine of "Love Night", as long as she fought again, the seemingly distant opportunity may turn around.

And this role is very beneficial to her transformation!

She did receive a certain amount of care from James Cameron, but she didn't rely on herself to get opportunities in the past? (To be continued.) )
