Chapter 391: Fight with the trailer

"**** can be varied and bizarre to create jokes."

"And his friends, all of whom came up with ideas that sounded good, but were actually terrible."

"All bad ideas start out like a good idea."

"Yes, yes, like...... The actor finally met a person he liked, but agreed to have a sexless relationship with the other party? ”

Seeing Apatou and Carell exchanging opinions with excitement on their faces, Sean, who was a little surprised, couldn't help but smile at this time, he just thought that Carell's idea had a chance to be made into a movie, but as they discussed, the more they heard, the more their intuition thought that the idea was promising.

"Alright, Judd, Steve, I'll admit it's an interesting idea, but if you can, please wait a little longer or find a chance to discuss it tomorrow, okay? It's party time! Sean said at this time.

The two people who were discussing enthusiastically finally stopped, and looked at everyone seated, all of whom were a little embarrassed.

Then, Apatou looked at Sean with something in mind, hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Okay, we'll talk about it tomorrow, Sean, if you're interested, how about talking together?" ”

I have to say that he is very good at seizing opportunities, after all, among the bunch of people here, only Sean has his own production company and has produced many good movies, if he can be pulled in, even a simple promise is a huge encouragement.

Sean also knew this, so he naturally planned to sell it well, but just as he was about to speak, his brows furrowed.

Apatu, who originally had an expectant look, couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he saw him like this. Speaking of which, he is more than ten years older than him, and he has seen the wind and waves, and his well-received TV series was cut, and he also put these praises in an envelope and sent them to the top management of the TV station, although the letter was intercepted by the agent, but this matter is still widely circulated in the circle, which shows what his character is.

But because of this move, he was suppressed, coupled with poor health, he didn't have good works for seven or eight consecutive years, and the only luck was that he met a good woman. Even so, it can't make his career improve significantly, if he wasn't lucky enough to participate in the production of "Ace Announcer" this time, I don't know what will happen to Lu Dao in the future, and this is all based on the high box office that "Ace Announcer" can get.

If it weren't for these experiences, how could Apatou care so much about a junior's opinion now? It's sad, but that's the reality.

"I'm sorry, Judd, but I've been running back and forth between two movies lately, and I'm a little pressed for time, so I probably won't be able to participate in your discussion." Sean said first.

Although Apatu was silent on the surface, he sighed in his heart, but before he could react, Sean's voice sounded again: "So, as long as the budget does not exceed 20 million, I can make a decision directly." ”

"It's okay, I understand...... What did you say?! Apatu, who was about to say a few polite words, reacted and his eyes widened involuntarily.

"I said, as long as the budget does not exceed 20 million, I can make a decision directly, and if it exceeds, I will take it to the company to discuss," Sean repeated, "It is not difficult for you to estimate an approximate budget, right?" ”

"Yes...... Yes, but the script hasn't been ...... yet" Apatou stammered a little, he had seen a lot of investors, but it was the first time he had seen such a bold one.

"So you guys have to write the script as soon as possible for me to see," Sean waved his hand, looking disapproving, "By the way, I still have conditions, I want you to direct, and then Steve starring, and give Seth a suitable role." ”

"I'm directing? Are you sure? Apatou took a deep breath, although he had also directed some TV series and movies before, but basically co-directed, and his main label was still screenwriter and producer. Now Sean asks him to direct by name, even if his qualifications in the circle are still a little shallow, but after all, he has seen so many movies, which is also an affirmation of his ability.

Carell and Seth also widened their eyes, and the latter didn't talk about it, both having a good relationship with Sean and being recommended to audition for a big production, it was normal to ask Apatou for a role. But the former is different, although each other's agents belong to Endeavour, they didn't have much intersection before today, and now they let him play a supporting role to play the leading role, there will definitely be a feeling of disbelief.

"Of course," Sean said with certainty, "since this story was your idea, of course you should direct, produce, and perform it, right?" ”

No matter when, the icing on the cake is not as good as charcoal in the snow, once you decide to sell well, to give the other party a favor, then simply sell the biggest.

Originally, Sean just wanted to encourage two sentences and wait for the script to come out, and then discuss it with Vladimir, but his intuition told him that if he did this, he would not get the best benefit.

It was a feeling that could not be described in words, and although countless fragments passed through my mind, I could not catch anything, and in the end all I left was the Chinese character "Apatu Party".

Sean didn't know what this meant, but it didn't prevent him from changing his mind from wooing Apatou to trying to woo Apatou as much as possible. Therefore, after a quick calculation in his heart, he first suppressed and then said the above words, wanting to impress people quickly, which is the best way to do it.

"Are you really going to give me trouble, so sure that movie, which doesn't even have a script, will be a big hit?" Vladimir asked with a sigh on the phone.

Indeed, although Sean used to do the same thing, which script he liked, he gave Vladimir a call, and the latter immediately went to get it done. Although it has become a model, this time it is really too exaggerated, and the script has not yet come out and is in a hurry to take it, and an investment of 20 million has been promised, which Vladimir can't accept for a while.

"If you're not interested, then let my Tang-style pictures take over, and then you need to help raise some funds and do a good job of distribution." Sean said lightly.

There was silence for a moment: "Okay, I know, but I have to read the script before making a decision." ”

"Whatever you want." Sean was very crisp.

To be honest, he didn't have much confidence in what it was, who knew what kind of changes the butterfly effect would be, such as his own performance was too much, and Apatu definitely couldn't live up to his trust, so he trembled and took out a mediocre step.

So Sean has always said in front of them before, don't care too much about other people's opinions, don't be restrained, just do what you think boldly.

I hope you don't let me down...... Sean can only say this in his heart, although it is acceptable to fail once in a while, no one can succeed every time, Sean has also looked away before, but it is still a bit too generous to take 20 million to fail.

But it's all come to this point, it's useless to think so much, or spend your energy on the role you want to play, and those pesky flies are here again.

This time it wasn't a scandal, but the trailer for "The Aviator" aired, which was two and a half minutes long and was first broadcast on ABC and WB television, including Hughes's flying rhapsody, two major relationships, and post-World War II hearings.

The rhythm is very good, the soundtrack is also very appropriate, and the tenderness and sweetness are warm and passionate, Scorsese should have put a lot of effort into it, but Kate has a little more shots...... Well, is it to play Catherine? Kate of Hepburn.

But the media didn't think it was that good.

"Maybe the image of a playboy fits, but something else...... Forget it. ”

"Jean Sean? Don plays one of the greatest aviators in American history? It was definitely a bad decision. ”

"Martin? Scorsese was too flippane, maybe he thought Sean? Don is good, but others don't, Leonardo? Is DiCaprio more suitable to play Howard than the young man who is only in his early 20s? Hughes. ”

Anyway, it's a few months ago that the news that Sean will be teaming up with Scorsese to play Hughes in his new film has already been reported once by the media.

The difference is that last time it was quickly covered up by Sean's scandal, and this time they have evidence - that is, the trailer that aired - so it is portrayed more exaggerated and attracts more eyes.

For example, someone analyzed the trailer frame by frame on the Internet to show that Sean is not suitable for the role of Hughes at all, although many people think that this guy is boring and completely looking for trouble, but more people find it very interesting.

Plus there are people who are fueling the fire, such as the guy mentioned above, someone who is more suitable for the role of Hughes than Sean. So starting in late June, the trailer of "The Aviator" proves that Sean can't play Howard at all? Hughes's remarks are very loud in public opinion.

"It's normal, just ignore it, anyway, when the movie is released at the end of the year, how will the audience naturally vote with the movie tickets in their hands." When asked on the set of "Time to Go to War", Sean was very open-minded.

As I said before, this kind of singing decline will appear before the release of every actor's work, but the degree is large and small, and when "Cold Mountain" and "Sniper Phone Booth" and even earlier "Genius Ripley", Sean has been treated like this, and he has long been immune. Anyway, as he says now, it will be clear exactly how the movie will be released, although the media will never learn the lesson.

"Looks like you're right with Howard? Hughes was quite persistent and actually moved Scorsese. Christopher then teased, of course, there was no malice or dissatisfaction, Sean's seriousness at the beginning had already shown that he liked that character very much, in this case, in the case of Christopher giving up the subject, it was reasonable for Sean to go to Scorsese, and there was no difference between the way he impressed the other party and the way he impressed Christopher.

"Yes, yes, I will take on the role of Batman, also because I think he is very close to the image of Hughes, his parents died early, he is smart, he has a lot of feelings, he is a playboy, etc., of course, there are some small differences, but don't care." Sean then said this, and was once again ridiculed by veteran comic book fans.
