Chapter 166: There are always twists and turns

The audition was a success, at least that's what Frederick said, as soon as the crew of "Sniper Phone Booth" finished the interview, he began to inquire about the news, and he was indeed a qualified agent.

'Schumacher was surprised, I didn't expect you to do so well and he was satisfied. Zach didn't say anything, but looking at his appearance, he should think about it seriously, and it depends on how you perform in the interview, Sean. That's what he said.

This made Sean breathe a sigh of relief, although he heard the applause after his audition, he didn't know what Zach and Schumacher really thought. Frederick's speech may have been exaggerated, but he certainly wasn't untargeted, and his meticulous performance was recognized.

However, what is surprising is that the interview should have been done soon, the audition has ended, of course, the role should be decided as soon as possible, but after three or four days there was no movement, and counting the original audition time, it would be a week to drag on.

At this time, Frederick, who had been inquiring about the news before, came to the door and asked, "Have you been in contact with the rest of the crew?!" ”

"Any questions?" Sanders instinctively asked unceremoniously.

But Sean immediately picked up: "We and Larry? Cohen, the screenwriter of "Sniper Phone Booth", had a certain amount of communication and had a discussion around the ending. ”

The agent's face was very ugly, and he looked very bad, as if something important had happened, so Sean spoke before Sanders stimulated him.

"Hell!" As soon as he heard this, Frederick immediately exclaimed, "I know, I know!" Weishenme: You can't stay at home quietly! weishenme: You always like to make your own decisions! Forget it on your own, weishenme didn't tell me if she did it! ”

He cried out through gritted teeth, tugging at his hair as if he wanted to slam something to the ground.

"Alright, Fred, let's talk about what happened." Sean said soothingly.

After venting, the agent finally came back to his senses, sighed and said simply: "Originally, Zach and Schumacher had reached a consensus to a certain extent, and they both thought that you could try it, but the final confirmation needs to be after the interview." But at this time, that screenwriter, Larry? Cohen, but he came over and said he wanted to revise the script! Damn, that guy weishenme doesn't look for another time! Schumacher thought it was negotiable after discussing it with him, but Zach strongly opposed it after hearing about it, and then heard from Cohen that it was you who inspired him, and Zuihou said that if so, then no longer consider you as the leading actor! ”

"How so?" Sanders couldn't help but cry out.

"Why, of course you didn't think about this kind of consequence when you instigated Sean to contact Cohen?!" Frederick opened his eyes and asked unceremoniously and loudly, "Don't think I don't know, only you would give Sean such a stupid idea!" ”

Sanders's face turned red at once, but he couldn't say anything for a while, but his lips tightened.

"Isn't it time to discuss this, Fred, Zach Weishenme has that kind of violent reaction?" It was Sean who came out to play the round.

"How do I know," Frederick said depressedly, "I'm not God, I can only ask about this, maybe he thinks it's offensive for you to bypass him and make direct contact with the writer, maybe he thinks his authority on the set is being challenged, it's all possible." ”

Sean frowned, but he was not in a hurry, he had already experienced so many things, and now he was able to achieve a certain degree of pampering without being shocked.

"What's the situation now?" He asked.

"It's still a stalemate," Frederick sighed, "I don't know whether to say you're lucky or bad, as a director, Schumacher and Cohen are old acquaintances, so this time I'm on his side, although I haven't made it clear that I must use you as the protagonist, but if Cohen supports you, it shouldn't be a problem." ”

"And ......," Sean pinched his chin, "what about Fawkes?" ”

"It's just a small production company owned by 20th Century Fox that makes the movie, and as long as the two sides don't get into trouble or even make the conflict public, they won't be interested in caring about it!" The agent shook his head.

"Then you're still taking me to various parties and drinking parties?" Sean rolled his eyes.

"It's better to know them than not to know them, and just because you don't have help today doesn't mean you won't help tomorrow." Frederick spread his hands.

"So what now?" The problem went back to the beginning, but for a while no one could do anything better, Sanders, who was hit, definitely couldn't think of anything now, and Frederick and Sean were constrained by insufficient intelligence and couldn't make a judgment for the time being, and then Galen, who had been silent, finally stood up.

"Can you tell them to have an interview with Sean?" He asked.

"Interviews? Right now? Unlikely. Frederick was a little surprised, "And Weishenme is going to be interviewed." ”

"You're cut off for a while, aren't you? So we don't know exactly what kind of relationship they are in, and if we want to reverse the current situation, we must communicate with them, so we find a way to arrange a meeting, whether it is pretending to be accidental or going straight to the door, whether it is in a public place or a private house, as long as we can sit down and talk together. Galen quickly explained, "Only communication can solve problems." ”

Sean and Frederick pondered in unison, and then Galen added: "Of course, this is a gamble, if Sean can straighten out and eliminate their conflicts through communication, then there is no need to say much about the rest of the matter, but if not, I'm afraid there will be no next time." ”

"It's okay, you can try." Sean quickly made up his mind and looked at Frederick.

"Okay, I'll figure it out." The agent nodded.

The matter was relatively simple, and Schumacher certainly didn't want Zach and Cohen to fall out, so when Frederick easily seized the opportunity to meet him and talked about it, Schumacher agreed to lend out the house and called Zach to ask him out to talk. The difficulty is how to make Zach not evoke unpleasant memories after meeting Sean, so as to lose his temper or something, which leads to the failure of the interview.

However, Cohen solved the problem, and after the three of them met, Frederick was supposed to pretend to come to the door by chance to take the lead, first testing Zack's attitude, and then Sean adjusted his strategy according to this and came over in the same way. Unexpectedly, out of confidentiality, Cohen, who was not informed of the specific situation, immediately proposed to call Sean over to chat after knowing that Frederick was Sean's agent, although Zach frowned and put on a very unhappy expression, but did not object directly, Frederick immediately and Schumacher together, let him agree.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Zach, Mr. Schumacher, and Mr. Cohen." Sean politely greeted them.

Both Schumacher and Cohen responded, but Zach only snorted and nodded slightly after a while, his face still gloomy.

"You know Weishenme asked you to come over?" As soon as Sean sat down, he was the first to ask.

Although he was a little polite, Sean only raised his eyebrows: "Yes, I know, so I want to ask, Mr. Zack, do you think the script can't be changed?" ”

"All our preparations were carried out according to the original script, and now we suddenly say that we want to change, so what about our previous preparations?" Zach had a bad complexion.

Sean suddenly chuckled: "Then according to what you say, Mr. Zach, all the scripts can't be changed during filming?" ”

"The changes at the time of shooting are the changes at the time of shooting, and the changes at the time of preparation are the changes at the time of preparation." Zach frowned, but still acted as if nothing had happened.

Looking at Schumacher and Cohen again, they both smiled slightly wryly, it seems that this is not the first time. Well, it's really a matter of power, Frederick is right, Cohen proposed to change the script, and because of the discussion with Sean, let David, as a producer? Zach felt offended.

Is power so important? Yes, power is so important, so ...... What to do?

"Can I know that I can't change a single line?" Sean then asked, and Zach opened his mouth but didn't speak, and then watched Sean's expression become even more uneasy.

It's undoubtedly a trap, and once Zach admits it, it will be tantamount to tearing up his face with Cohen, and Schumacher will certainly be on Cohen's side in this situation. Although the power of the director and screenwriter is not as good as that of him as a producer, and there are directors in Hollywood, Schumacher is an old qualified director after all, and his connections are not comparable to ordinary people. If it is because of this reason that he tears his face and replaces, he will make trouble with 20th Century Fox, and even if he wins, it will inevitably cause a huge storm.

So Zack, who had an ugly face, looked at Sean with very dissatisfied eyes, and at the same time, Schumacher and Cohen also showed surprised looks, they obviously didn't expect that Sean would have a complete showdown as soon as he came.

"Well, then I'll talk about me first," Sean said with a calm expression at this time, "I want to say to you and Mr. Schumacher Daoqian, very serious and sincere Daoqian, I shouldn't have talked about this with Mr. Cohen when I need to keep it secret, although we met by chance in a bar." However, I like the character very much, I want to get him, I want to give my opinion, it's my fault, I'm very sorry. ”

As soon as these words came out, the three people in the room were surprised again, and looked at each other, completely unsure of what he wanted to do.

"That said, I would like to say that the ending of the script should still be revised to a certain extent. Even though I'm just a young actor and don't necessarily get the role yet, I still want to say my opinion because it's a great story. Sean then said it again, in a rather sincere tone.

Then he looked at Zach: "So, I want to ask, Mr. Zack, in your opinion, how are we going to change it, what should we pay attention to?" ”

All three of them began to look a little strange, Cohen was delighted, Schumacher was appreciative, and Zach was surprised.

Then, after a long silence, the producer finally spoke: "We have to take the sequel into account. ”
