After deciding on the director, Jenkins Films began to look for the right people to form a crew, this series has its peculiarities, and the main cast and crew of the future are very likely to live in London for a long time, so in addition to Chris? In addition to Columbus's team, British staff members will be preferred.

Ryan specifically got Michael from Warner Bros. Barnathan, as another producer, assists Chris? Columbus handled the crew's chores.

In addition, Jenkins Films has contacted the British media under News Corp., and will send out advertisements for audition actors after the New Year, with the hype power of these guys, the casting of Harry Potter will definitely become the most concerned thing in British life next year.

These are not in a hurry, Ryan is ready to spend more than half a year next year to complete the audition of actors, even if the Harry Potter series is famous in the world, especially in the Western world, because of his relationship, far more than in the previous life, hype and publicity are still an indispensable means.

At this stage, the focus is naturally "Desert Island", after the trailer was released, this movie became the most eye-catching focus of the Christmas file, who made it the screenwriter and starring Ryan.

Especially the character in the trailer that is completely different from the previous ones, which is considered by many media to be Ryan's breakthrough in inherent acting skills and transformation.

Although there are many movies released this year, and huge profits have been made at the box office and derivatives, in fact, the scale of Jenkins Film has not expanded much, and the increase in staff is extremely limited, and the three-story independent office building that originally belonged to Carlock Film is still spacious and empty.

Probably inspired by Pixar Studios, Julis? Stewart and Mario? Casa has converted a large warehouse on the first floor into a staff playground, with a small pastry shop and café, as well as an exhibition area for films produced by the company to store commemorative posters and props.

After finishing his work, Ryan didn't find Natalie and the others in the editing room. After a brief question, I found three girls sitting on rattan tables and chairs, sipping Black Forest cakes and pointing at the exhibition area in front of them.

"Do you see that necklace, it's the famous 'Heart of the Ocean'."

With Christine since childhood? Stewart is playing big here, and Taylor is very familiar with Jenkins Films, "It's a pity that such a beautiful necklace is James's beard." Chemically synthesized. ”

"And the sketch." Scarlett? Johnson gave Natalie a weird smile, "That's Ryan's nude sketch for Ruth......"

"Dear Scarlett, that's James? Cameron drew a picture of Miss Winslet in a bikini. Ryan picked up Taylor, regardless of the little one's objections, put her on the other side, and sat down next to Natalie, "Scarlett, if you talk bad about people behind your back, your nose will get longer." ”

"I didn't say anything." Scarlett playfully stuck out her tongue.

Out of sight of several people. Taylor? Miss Swift subconsciously touched her nose, as if she was worried about the sudden lengthening.

"Want something to eat? I'll help you out. Natalie stood up.

"Just like you."

After Natalie left, Ryan took Taylor's unopened juice and poured himself a full glass. In exchange for the little girl's dissatisfied muttering, "When did Ryan become a thief." ”

After Ryan habitually rubbed her curly hair, Natalie asked with concern as she held the black forest cake in front of him. "You're on a diet, is it okay to eat these?"

"It doesn't make a difference if you taste it a little." Ryan took a small bite, and the taste was very similar to that in Pixar's restaurant. It seems that the pastry chef here has gone there to study, "It tastes very good." ”

"It's better than what you and Nat cooked." Taylor wiped the corners of his mouth and asked curiously, "Isn't the filming of "Desert Island Aftermath" finished, why did you start dieting again?" ”

"Because his next role is a pianist who has been starving for a long time, and he could even starve to death at any time." Natalie pulled Taylor to her side and carefully wiped off the remaining food crumbs for her, "When he comes back from Europe next year, maybe the California sea breeze will blow to Nevada." ”

"Poor Ryan." Taylor looked at Scarlett with a sympathetic look, "Honey, you should learn more from Ryan. ”

"Shut up, Alison!" Scarlett gave her a pair of white eyeballs directly.

"Okay, okay."

Taylor jumped back into his seat, and rarely did not sneer at him, but sighed and said, "It seems that it is very painful to be an actor, and I will be a singer obediently in the future." ”

"Honey, what have you been doing lately? It's been a long time since I've been on the set to see me. Natalie looked at the little guy curiously, when she came to Los Angeles in the past, the other party would come to the crew almost every other day, but this time she visited the class significantly less.

"I'm practicing." Taylor said with great seriousness, "Being smart is a gift, not a privilege, so I'm going to work hard!" ”

Several people smiled encouragingly at the same time, and Ryan could feel that after returning from London, Taylor, although still very naughty and naughty, was much more restrained than before, and he came out to play a little less often.

Maybe it's because she's getting older and sensible, or maybe it's because the last conversation in London has played a role, and she's really working harder than before.

"Wait, Nat." Taylor jumped out of his chair and ran to the exhibit area, "I'll show you something interesting." ”

The little girl turned a corner, turned behind a support post, and soon ran back again, with an extra volleyball and a poster in her hand.

After Scarlett simply cleaned up the table, Taylor put the volleyball and the poster on it, "This is Ryan's only companion on the desert island, and the poster, you should have seen it, my dear brother Ryan, he has become Uncle Ryan." ”

"Still a weird uncle." Scarlett? Johnson covered his mouth and snickered, "I hope your fans won't be upset by this." ”

"I'm sure they'll get used to it quickly." Ryan grabbed the volleyball and looked at the red face made with his hand as a prop on it, "I can't always play Frank Jr. and Jack?" A character like Dawson. ”

"It's a smart choice." Natalie's eyes clearly mean that you are finally on the right path.

"It's a change you have to make if you want to win the Oscar for Best Actor." Ryan's words made Natalie roll her eyes unconsciously, pursed her lips and said, "Okay, Ryan, in your eyes, art is always for money and personal service, right?" ”

"Stop, Nat!" Ryan directly stuffed the volleyball 'Wilson' to Natalie, "If we really want to debate, we won't have a result until today next year." ”

"Okay." Natalie shrugged her shoulders and gestured her little hand over the volleyball's red face, "This is the original prop?" ”

"Uh-huh~"

Without waiting for Ryan to answer, Taylor nodded and explained the gossip she had heard to Natalie, "'Wilson' face is made of red dye on Ryan's palm, this is the original prop, it is said that Wilson paid three million dollars to get the rights to this volleyball, and the movie will be released after it is released." ”

"Honey, maybe I should have chosen you to run the company." Ryan rubbed his forehead, this little guy was a little too concerned about things, "Where did you get all this news?" ”

"I'm not going to tell you." Taylor wrinkled his nose and moved closer to Natalie, "I'll tell you a secret, Nat, "Desert Island Afterlife" has not been released yet, and half of the cost has been recovered. ”

When it comes to making money from movies, Natalie knows that there are few people in Hollywood who can compare to their boyfriends.

"Will Nicole come back at the premiere?"

Shortly after the North Hollywood incident in '97, Natalie confirmed that Nicole? Kidman was disgusted with her, and because of Ryan's affection, she couldn't say anything, so she simply reduced the number of meetings between the two parties as much as possible to avoid unpleasantness.

In her opinion, Ryan is already independent, and the possibility of intersecting with each other in the future is infinitely reduced.

"Nope." Ryan shook his head, "The Matrix is almost over, Nicole doesn't have time, and she'll be spending Christmas with Annie in Sydney." ”

"Annie?"

"Nicole's sister." Taylor preemptively explained.

The four of them chatted for a while, preparing to leave the company and return to Beverly Hills, and when Taylor returned the volleyball and poster, he asked with a blank eye, "Ryan, can I take Mr. Wilson with me?" ”

"When I go out, I'll have someone bring you one."

Hearing Ryan's words, the little girl was not happy, but followed him with her head drooping, muttering something that she didn't know what she was talking about.

"What's wrong, Taylor?" Natalie walked over, took the little girl's hand and asked, "You...... What's being calculated? ”

"I'm counting how much pocket money I have."

"Pocket money?"

"yes, Nat." The little guy wrinkled his nose, "I heard Aunt Julis say that the original Mr. Wells will be sent to a charity auction after the New Year, and this is a one-of-a-kind volleyball, and I want to buy it." ”

Hearing her words, Ryan and Natalie laughed, Taylor did restrain a lot, if it was before, he would definitely hold it and leave, where would there be such a performance.

This performance was also shown exclusively to Ryan and Natalie, and Ryan took her other hand, "I promise, dear, Mr. 'Wilson' will be your New Year's present." ”

With the release of "Desert Island" imminent, as in the past, Ryan handed over the publicity work to the professionals of Jenkins Films, and his agency and public relations teams were once again active, and their shadows could be seen behind both traditional media and emerging websites.

In addition to this, Ryan also personally invited a large number of members of the film school to attend the premiere of the film. (To be continued......)
