Chapter 332: Deviation, Principles, Film Festival

After Hurricane Brett, the three returned to Los Angeles on a private jet borrowed by Roland.

In three months, Disney, who wanted to make money, organized the project of "Hot Mom and Hot Girl".

Although there is still some time before filming starts, the actors read the script in advance, analyze the characters, and find the feeling, which is also something that the producer is happy to see, so the day after the vacation, the Olsen sisters entered the state of work.

And the youngest Elizabeth, of course, is to go back to school and continue to attend classes~

Perhaps it was because of Roland's intervention that the Olsons did not divorce, or it may be because of Roland's appearance, which allowed Elizabeth to see too much of the world, so in this life, her life trajectory and Roland's memory deviated.

The little guy who has been studying hard and has excellent grades has not developed much interest in acting.

Not only that, when playing in the UK, whenever someone asks her what she wants to do when she grows up, this little Lala Fat will always raise her fleshy baby fat round face and tell each other seriously that she wants to play finance when she grows up.

Although the innocent and romantic decision was a bit childlike, David was still very happy when he learned about it.

With James Olsen's crooked tuba in front, Elizabeth, it's really a sweet little padded jacket.

And for Roland, if Elizabeth really doesn't set foot in Hollywood, it is indeed a loss, because she played the Scarlet Witch really well, but this kind of loss is actually harmless in Roland's opinion.

If it was an outsider, then Roland would definitely be trying to coax and squeeze it, and it would be the turn of this little girl who grew up watching herself...... She can do whatever she likes, and if she doesn't want to act, she won't act!

Who made him ...... Did you like it in your previous life?

…………

Since the three returned home alone on a private jet, their departure did not have any impact on Roland's itinerary, and while saying goodbye to the three little Lalafat, Roland and Kate, who stayed in the UK, also welcomed Catherine Kennedy.

After the success of "The Sixth Sense", the film's producer, Catherine Kennedy, felt a big rock in her chest and finally landed.

Because this is the fifth film she has made independently, and the only one that has been a big hit.

Since she followed Steven Spielberg in '79, Katherine Kennedy has given her peers the impression that she is a guy who has taken shit luck and hugged the thighs of the big guy.

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, she and her husband followed the old man to become the second producer of Hollywood, and they can drown people with a lot of water!

It is precisely because of the doubts she has encountered in the past ten years that in 92, when the old man left the world, she took this opportunity to form the Kennedy/Marshall Film Production Company with her husband, wanting to prove her ability.

It's a pity that after the establishment of the company, the first project produced, the movie "The Aftermath" directed by her husband, suffered a big loss, the second "Pretty Woman" collapsed at the box office, the third part of "Little Wonder Soldier of the Magic Cabinet" continued to pull the crotch, and the fourth part of "Congo Horror" can be recouped...... In this case, the ridicule in the circle is very loud.

Everyone thinks that this is the true level of Katherine Kennedy!

And various film companies have also questioned her ability because of repeated losses.

In this case, making "The Sixth Sense" is the equivalent of fighting against the water.

It's done, it's a shame before the snow, if you lose, you will never be able to turn over.

That's why Katherine Kennedy paid a fortune to bring in Bruce Willis.

Although the actor cannot be the core criterion for judging the quality of a movie, this decision is obviously correct, and the high box office has brought the doubts that have existed for many years to an abrupt end, and also made Catherine Kennedy, who has been aggrieved for many years, raise her eyebrows.

So much so that when Roland saw her, his radiant face was like wax.

"Long time no see~Roland~" Catherine Kennedy took the initiative to reach out.

"yes~ Catherine."

"Oh~Kate~ For a long time in the future, I will be filming at your house~" The human spirit gave a hug.

"That's an exaggeration." Kate denied with a smile, "You haven't decided on a hotel, right?" So go to my house tonight? ā€

"Okay~" got this invitation, Catherine Kennedy directly agreed, "It's much more comfortable to live at home than to stay in a hotel." ā€

"Well, I can also see what Steven said you might be staying in the UK for a long time in the future."

Kate's ridiculous words made Kate laugh, and while leading the way, she also said in a regretful tone: "Oh, it's a pity, because our house hasn't settled yet~"

"What? You've been in the UK for a long time, haven't you? Why hasn't this even been finalized? ā€

Katherine Kennedy was shocked.

However, just when she thought that the couple had their own choice difficulties, Kate said joking words in a serious tone, "The main thing is that there are some differences in our ideas, so we have lost a lot of time." ā€

"I want to live in the suburbs, so clean, and Roland wants to live in the city, saying it's easy to get around."

"That's it?" Katherine Kennedy was full of black lines, "You're dragging it out for this?" ā€

"And then it can't be solved until now?"

"yes!" Kate nodded, acknowledging the conflict between the two sides, but in the face of the second question, she denied it: "But this problem, we have solved it now......"

"There is a set in both the city and the suburbs, so you can live wherever you want......

The "......" local tyrant's approach left Catherine Kennedy speechless.

But even so, after a few seconds, she still asked curiously: "Then where are all your properties?" ā€

Roland can give an accurate answer to this question, "She has set her sights on a two-hundred-acre plot of land in Buckinghamshire, right on the banks of the River Thames, and I have chosen Kensington Palace Gardens in London." ā€

"Two hundred acres of land can be built on her own estate, and she can go there if she wants to go on vacation, and if she wants her children to go to school in England, then we will live in Kensington Palace Gardens during the school year, because it is more convenient for ......"

Get!

Katherine Kennedy stopped talking.

She doesn't understand the world of the super-rich, the nine-figure real estate can be bought without blinking, this kind of behavior is easier than eating sugar, so she suddenly feels that the "Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" she made up is not fragrant.

Of course, the reason why Roland and Kate did not leave the UK, but stayed here to wait for Catherine Kennedy, it was not to pretend to beep in front of her, and besides, the two did not think that buying two properties was a beep, and the purpose of their stay for a few more days was actually for the "Harry Potter" project, or rather, for the actor's contract.

The decision to kidnap Charlize Theron reminds Roland of the inflated asking price of the Harry Potter trio when they renewed their contracts in a previous life, and while these things can be avoided by making profits, wouldn't it be better if they could solve the problem at the source?

So when Roland learned that Catherine Kennedy would fly directly to the UK to fully promote the preparation for the filming of "Harry Potter" when she solved the work of "The Sixth Sense", Roland, who wanted to leave with her child, chose to wait patiently.

And after meeting with Catherine Kennedy and giving him a brief reception, he didn't want to hide the truth, so he directly said what he thought, and was eager to get an accurate answer.

"You want to sign a long-term contract with them?" Catherine Kennedy held the glass of water with a serious face.

"Yes, what's the problem?" Leaning on the sofa, Roland Tantan swayed, "This will be a series that spans several years, and I don't want to have a situation where the actors will be replaced due to salary during the filming process." ā€

Although Roland told the truth, the impersonal cold-blooded words made Catherine Kennedy sigh.

Because Roland's style at the moment is very similar to Spielberg, who left the world and created his own portal.

In the eyes of this secretary, who has followed the old man for 20 years, the old man's most powerful ability is not to create one blockbuster movie after another, but to pick up the guide tube and say creation, and put down the guide tube stranger.

When a person can continuously grasp the preferences of the audience, then he can only be regarded as a family;

When a person can control costs and streamline expenses, then he can only be regarded as a businessman;

And when a person can not only create art, but also streamline expenses and pay close attention to costs, then he is a capitalist.

The principle of capital is that there is only interest and no principle.

And grasping the preference and paying close attention to the cost, isn't it perfectly in line with the principle of capital?

Because both of these means are in pursuit of profit.

"No wonder he would say you're the student who is most like him." Catherine Kennedy was filled with emotion.

"But I definitely can't catch up with him in terms of artistic creation." Roland, who had a beep count, responded with a smile.

Without dwelling too much on the topic, Katherine Kennedy gave Roland the answer he wanted.

"Of course, we can sign a long-term contract, but we have to control the degree."

"Because we can only sign with those minors, those actors who have become famous, will not accept such contracts."

"However, signing a long-term contract with a minor actually has a certain risk, because they themselves can't make decisions for themselves, all contracts are signed on behalf of them, and in this case, even if we sign a long-term contract with them, they can also go to court with us because of the remuneration issue, as long as they sue their guardians together, saying that their guardians have joined us and defrauded the interests that should belong to them, the court will focus on the investigation."

"And once that happens, the likelihood of us losing the case becomes very high."

"Because their guardians may have certain deals with them personally."

"Oh!"

Roland understood.

"That is, parents take the initiative to take the blame and seek greater benefits for their children?"

"Yes." Katherine Kennedy nodded.

"Is there a way to fix that?" Roland asked.

"Yes."

"How to fix it?"

"First of all, the salary can't be pressed too hard, if the price of each part is 500,000, then we will definitely lose the lawsuit; The second is that our Harry Potter crew needs to bring greater benefits to the local area like the Lord of the Rings crew......"

It's actually very simple to lower the price, just don't give people a reason to win the lawsuit!

And how to block the reason for winning the lawsuit?

That, of course, is that the judge can get by with face! Local interests get by!

The so-called judge's face is passable, so naturally don't make those contracts that insult people's IQ - in. Before Rowling finished writing, you made eight film contracts, each with 500,000 yuan, isn't this the most obvious flaw?

And if the contract first stipulates a contract of three to five films, and adds a follow-up participation clause, and appropriately mentions the salary, then after reading it, the judge can at least understand that this is indeed a low-cost contract made by the producer in advance in order to reduce costs, rather than a squeeze contract planned from the beginning.

As for the local interests, it will naturally help the filming location generate income.

Leave some crew photos for the filming location, donate some costumes and props for filming, and then write some shooting tidbits and behind-the-scenes stories for the crew in the name of the crew, so that the local area can turn it into a tourist attraction, which is enough.

As long as the local government can continuously earn tourism income from the filming location, they will also help testify in the event of an accident, showing that this is indeed not a squeeze, but a legal contract agreed in advance, and during the filming process, the crew actively cooperated with the inspection, legally employed people, and filmed in compliance with the law, there was no problem.

Of course, these two points are easy to say, but they are troublesome to run.

However, with the old fritter of Catherine Kennedy, Roland is still very relieved.

…………

After entrusting the contract to Catherine Kennedy, Roland and Kate finally left England and headed east.

For Roland, it doesn't really matter where to play, it's all up to his daughter-in-law to decide, but for Kate, this is actually the best decentralization, because after "Titanic" was closed, Roland's decision was her choice.

Whether it's a vacation or a trip, Roland says she will follow wherever she goes.

Whether it is work or socializing, Roland says that wherever she lives, her home is there.

Although Kate has always accommodated Roland and has not bothered too much about such small things, she is still very happy when she really makes a new choice, not to mention that Roland is still sitting on the side and not talking, letting her pick slowly.

At first, Kate, who was slowly looking for the map, was quite happy, but when she found out that her man was leaning on the sofa and tilting his head to look at her, not caring about the time at all, she immediately abandoned this kind of brain-based work.

When Roland patted her ass and told her that she had retired, for the rest of her life, that was when she was making a decision, since the choice was in her own hands, then she didn't care whether she chose it or not, she directly plotted the numbers in various areas of the map, and then used the dice to decide where to go, and when they received God's will, the next thing to do was not to be reckless?

Decide where to go?

Is it necessary?

As long as you're with each other, you're playing wherever you go, so that's—

The accompanying bodyguard assistants all felt that they had beeped the dog!

On the 23rd, they also received Catherine Kennedy in London;

On the 24th, the task of punching in the Berlin Wall has been completed;

On the 25th, I took a day off and strolled down the street with crispy pork knuckle;

On the 26th, two sand sculptures were shaking in Greenland with Danish beer;

On the 28th, I went to Barcelona to see the bullfight;

On the 30th, nesting next to the Church of Our Lady in Luxembourg, Kate acted as a model, and Roland held a drawing board and painted all day;

At the beginning of September, they went to Italy and participated in the Venice Film Festival as tourists......

In the past, Roland was of course very interested in the film festival, because it was a good platform for direct communication with creative people from all walks of life, but now, it doesn't matter to him whether he participates or not, Kate is interested.

Before I went, I thought about it, but after I went, Roland found out, ...... It turns out that they are all old acquaintances!

There are many films in the competition, and the most familiar one for Roland is a film about education - "No One is Missing".

And the second familiar one is "Eyes Open" played by Ah Tang and his wife.

The third familiar is "The Cider House Rule" by Tobey Maguire and Charlize Theron.

Although Roland has seen all these movies, but high-definition resources and live viewing, can it be the same?

Take "Eyes Wide Open" as an example, the abridged version and the uncut version are two different concepts, especially when the masked girls in the church reveal their black robes......

Huh! At that moment, Roland's eyes widened.

And when Nicole Kidman wears glasses and heels and runs freely around the hotel......

Hiss......

While Roland is licking a contribution to global warming, he also envies Xu Qi'an, who can listen to the hook every day.

"Is it pretty?" Hearing the movement, Kate immediately pestled her own man.

"It's not pretty!" Roland, who had learned his lesson, hurriedly shook his head.

"Then why are your eyes so wide?" Kate sneered.

"Criticism! Criticism! Roland was righteous.

"Hmph~" Kate rolled her eyes.

The advantage of watching a film at a film festival is that you can truly understand the director's intentions.

If you are lucky enough to find some friends with similar views, then maybe after a few days of development, everyone may be able to communicate and become like-minded people.

Of course, these open benefits have nothing to do with Roland, and just when he was happily busy on vacation, a curly-haired guy in New York was a little anxious, because his new work was going to be cut by Fox.
