Chapter 4 Brokers
Kensington is a well-known affluent district in London, and the most famous building is Kensington Palace, the residence of Princess Diana, but now it has just entered the summer of 1989, and this palace representing the majesty of the royal family is a must-visit for most people.
About a street away from Kensington Palace is Ryan and Nicole's detached cottage, where two women and a man sit around a small white table in the living room, talking.
"What? Are you going to be my broker? Ryan's interrogator was a white woman in her thirties, with a shrewd and capable face.
The woman looked closely at the boy opposite, about ten years old, the small dark blue dress that fit made him look a little thin, the soft light brown short hair was glowing with gold, and the sky blue eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, and there were occasional flashes of cunning and maturity.
Ryan was a little confused and looked at the sexy and tall Nicole? Kidman sat next to him, staring at him with doting eyes in his eyes.
She straightened her somewhat disheveled blonde curls before she spoke, "Ryan, is this pie?" Ms. Kinsley, the agent I signed with some time ago, Pat, is this Ryan? Jenkins too. ”
"Nicole ......"
Ryan wanted to speak and stopped, his little hand quietly held the girl's hand, and no one saw the strange look that flashed on his face, it seemed to be intentional or unintentional, he asked the female agent a few words, and he was ninety percent sure in his heart.
Well, since he can be reborn, a certain god will Nicole again? Kidman was sent to him and became his guardian, so it's normal for Nicole to meet her agent in her previous life in advance, isn't it?
That's right, Ryan is very sure, the opposite pie? Kingsley, is that Tom in her previous life? Cruise and Nicole? Kidman's agent, remember that she only signed with Nicole and Tom in 90, and now she actually appeared in London?
Sure enough, the wings of his little butterfly still fanned the trajectory of some people.
"You're wandering again." Nicole gently pinched the boy's ear, the two had lived together for almost three years, and his frequent distraction was the most headache for her.
Ryan smiled sheepishly, having lived in London for two years and being taught by a etiquette teacher, he showed good manners and upbringing in his every move.
"Ryan, I actually came to London with Nicole just for you!" Kingsley's words made the boy gradually come to his senses, and he roughly guessed something, but deliberately asked, "Me? weishenme? ”
Instead of answering, Kingsley took her handbag and took out three books from it, one for Jurassic Park, one for Ryan Stories, and one for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
It's the three books Ryan has already published on the market!
By now, Ryan would be a fool if he didn't understand that the other party knew that he was the author of these three books, and his first reaction was to look at Nicole, but the Australian girl shook her head at him, indicating that she didn't leak the news.
Ryan could only sigh, and his thoughts turned, and he guessed the reason why Jinsilly was here.
Obviously, the other party has his own information channels and a certain skill, I don't know where I learned that I am the author of these three books, and I know that dealing with a child is not an easy task, so I simply used a roundabout tactic to find Nicole, who has the closest relationship with him? Kidman also gained her trust and became her full-time agent, and then he came all the way to London.
In her previous life, she was able to mix well in Hollywood, and Zuihou will also Tom? Cruise is a disgraced person, and he is really a man with vision and skill, who can find out who is the most suitable investment object when others have not noticed.
Ryan is not surprised that Jin Sili will take the initiative to come to the door, in his previous life, he knew a little bit about the broker industry, and knew that many brokers often take the initiative after discovering a target worth investing in, and he will be targeted by this female agent, which is normal.
If nothing else, just look at the three books on the table.
Jurassic Park topped the national bestseller list in 1987 and has since held the spot for more than three decades, selling millions of copies in the United Kingdom and the United States alone, making it the preferred children's book for many.
Although "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is tepid, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is only the beginning of a whole series, and since its release last year, it has unknowingly sold more than 100,000 copies.
As for "The Collected Stories of Ryan," it is a collection of short and medium-length stories published by boys, and although it has only been published for a few months, it has unwittingly climbed the bestseller list in the United States.
The most important thing is that anyone who knows a little about the film industry will understand that the stories he wrote are very suitable for film adaptation, and the benefits he can get by then can be imagined, not to mention, now that he is only nine years old, who knows if he will become the next Stephen? Kim or Michael? Clayton.
Fat sheep delivered to the door? Ryan pinched his chin and thought about it.
"Ryan, do you want to go back to Los Angeles?" Nicole? Kidman asked suddenly.
"Back to the United States?" Ryan frowned, even though he had lived in Los Angeles for seven years, it was still a strange city.
"That's right, I'm going to Los Angeles in a few days to audition for a movie, why don't we go back together?"
Nicole explained, Ryan gradually understood, with the release of "Flying Over the Horizon", she must have attracted a lot of attention.
"What movie?" In Ryan's heart, he kept saying, don't be that, don't be that......
""Thunder Ambition", if you pass the audition, can you talk to Tom? Cruise Cooperation! ”
This sentence is no less than a thunderbolt for Ryan, Nicole is one of his favorite movie stars in his previous life, what will happen when he participates in "Thunder and Ambition", this shijie no one knows better than him.
She will fall in love with Tom and get married after the movie is released, and soon after there will be irreconcilable contradictions, Zuihou was injured and incomplete, and when she divorced, she was taken by the notorious Italian hired by Liangtang, and had to sign the divorce agreement in humiliation.
Is the inertia of the wheel of history so great? It's only been two years to pull Nicole's deviated life trajectory back to the original path? This is definitely not the result he wants to see, after more than two years of dependence, he and her have long had a deep friendship, and he will never allow the person he likes and loves to be hurt in any way, not even the slightest!
"Don't you want to go back to Los Angeles?" Nicole was a little weird, it was his hometown.
"Oh, no, I just remembered something else." Ryan changed the topic without a trace, looked at the female agent, and asked very directly, "Pat, are you Mr. Cruise's agent?" ”
"Of course not."
Although it was a little strange, Kinsley denied it without any hesitation, "Actually, I only have Nicole in my name. ”
Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, Nicole's yearning for Hollywood, he couldn't be clearer, since that's the case, let's go back to Los Angeles, I've been preparing for years, Jihua...... Let's get started!
He still doesn't believe it, if he strongly opposes it, with such a long relationship and relationship, it is not as good as a cream student.
What's more, if he has mental calculations or not, he will naturally use some means to make Tom? Mr. Cruise retreated.
To enter that Vanity Fair, a skilled agent was a must, and Ryan quickly reached a verbal agreement with Kingsley that a formal contract would not be signed until he returned to Los Angeles and reviewed by his full-time lawyer, Mr. Wilson.
Since he is leaving London, there will be a series of things to deal with next, Ryan visited the tutors who taught him one by one, especially the masters of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, although they were hired by Nicole with a lot of money, but without their careful teaching, Ryan would not have the musical literacy he has today, you know, he can now make some pieces that are not too complicated, and the piano and guitar are also of a professional level.
After going to school with Nicole to go through the withdrawal procedures, all that's left is to pack your bags.
He doesn't have many things, the instruments he usually uses to practice are just ordinary brands, which can be repurchased after returning to Los Angeles, and the most precious thing is a whole suitcase full of manuscripts, if a friend from a previous life reads it, he will definitely smash his jaw on the floor, look at the names on these manuscripts - "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", "The Sixth Sense", "Titanic" and so on.
Ryan thought about it for a moment and took out the script "The Sixth Sense" and the novel "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", which should be something that will be used immediately after returning home.
Of course, they are all copies, and he will not give the original manuscript to anyone casually, otherwise, what if someone sells it?
"Ryan, do you need my help?" Send? Jin Sili knocked on the door and walked in, and saw the suitcase full of letters, and couldn't stop feeling dizzy.
"Pat, this is the second episode of Harry Potter, and when I go back, I will hand it over to the "Alien" publishing house, this is "The Sixth Sense", the movie script, you can read it first, if you can, copy a few more copies, and throw it to major film companies." He directly handed over the two manuscripts, it is difficult for Hollywood newcomers to get ahead, so he will bombard himself with a sea of scripts, and now that he has an agent, these errands and miscellaneous work will be handed over to her.
"Drama...... Screenplay? Jin Sili was a little surprised, she quickly flipped through it, the more she looked at it, the brighter her eyes became, and gradually realized that she might have opened up a gold mine, "Leave it to me, in fact, I have some relationship with the major film companies." ”
It turns out that God still treats me well! The corners of Ryan's mouth twitched, it's better to have a relationship than to invest indiscriminately, you really can't underestimate Pie? Kinsley.
When she went out, Jin Sili glanced at the suitcase again, and the corners of her mouth couldn't stop shaking, could it be all manuscripts of this level?
