"Maybe we can relax now. Charlize Theron bit her lip and looked at Ryan.

Ryan looked at the delicate face, slender body, and smooth skin that was close at hand, and finally shook his head, "Finally, I can't agree to your request." ”

Charlize Theron was stunned for a moment, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, the person in front of her was indifferent to her, could it be that she was a homosexual?

No, it seems that he has a very unusual relationship with Monica Bellucci, who starred in two "Saw Horrors" in succession.

Ryan's eyes fell on Charlize Theron again, hesitated slightly, and said, "I worked with Touchstone once in May, and maybe there will be a role for you." ”

"I can leave you my phone number and I'll send you an audition invitation when the time comes. ”

He is not a saint after all, let alone a gentleman, and in the face of the temptation of young Charlize Theron, he still can't resist it, and finally says a deal.

It's not "Invasion of Evil Spirits", but a film "Truman's World" with Touchstone in May.

Charlize Theron's expression is a little unconvertible, the collaboration with Touchstone in May?

Naturally, she had heard the name of Touchstone, one of Disney's film distribution companies and a leader among Hollywood's second-tier film distribution companies.

"Can I ask the name of the film?" The attitude change was a bit quick, leaving Charlize Theron a little incredulous.

Really, Ryan's change was so sudden that she wasn't prepared for it.

"Truman's World, with an initial investment budget of $35 million, allows you to audition for the wife of the male protagonist in the film. Ryan said very frankly.

The wife in "Invasion of Evil Spirits" is the mother of a teenage girl, and the female teacher also needs a certain age limit, which is obviously not suitable for Charlize Theron in front of her.

The wife of the actor in "Truman's World" is set very young, and at Charlize Theron's age, as long as she looks a little more mature when she wears makeup, there should be no problem in wanting to play it.

The actress who played this role in her previous life was only in her early twenties, not a few years older than Charlize Theron.

"Truman's World"!

$35 million investment budget!

Charlize Theron didn't know what to say, and the whole person became incoherent, "Thank you, Mr. Ryan." ”

"I'm, I mean, I'm ready to be on call tonight. ”

Ryan said in a very flat tone, "It's just an invitation to audition, Miss Charlie, you don't have to be like this, the rest will wait until you pass the first round of auditions." ”

He agreed to the trade on the condition that Charlize Theron must pass the first round of auditions, or Ryan would not hesitate to turn it down, even if she is very attractive.

No one can joke about a $35 million film.

"I see. Charlize Selen sat down as if he understood what he meant.

Obviously, the man in front of him seems to have his own rules.

Even if it's a trade, it needs to pass the first round of auditions.

Next, Charlize Theron didn't stay long, leaving his personal phone number, and at the same time put Ryan's phone number away, and got up to leave.

Seeing Charlize Theron get up and leave and close the office door, Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, "Looks like I need to make a trip to England." ”

It's hilarious to say that "Leaving Las Vegas" is a film about the United States, but it was going to be filmed in the United Kingdom.

In fact, the reason is very simple, British films have a tax rebate policy, which can save a lot of money.

Of course, some of the shots in the film need to be filmed in Las Vegas.

As for the deal with Charlize Theron!

Ryan had a rule in his previous life that he should never underestimate an actress's vindictiveness, so when trading with her, she must let the other party get what she wants, not a deception.

This saves a lot of trouble.

Although some things are very common in Hollywood circles, actors who have suffered losses do not dare to say anything, but some young actors have to continue to be called.

For example, Harvey Weinstein is a typical figure among them, not to mention that he can't get anything in return, he has done it more than once.

But there are some things that don't mean someone else can do it, and you can do the same.

Ryan knew that he didn't have that qualification, and that some people were already eyeing him, waiting for him to make a mistake.

For example, Michael Ovitz, who was warned by Twentieth Century Fox, only restrained himself for a few days, and began to show his ugly face in public again, and almost unabashedly suppressed it publicly.

It won't be long before Michael Ovitz becomes Disney's CEO, and even Twentieth Century Fox's warnings will be useless.

The only thing that reassures him a little is that Michael Ovitz has been at the helm of Disney for a short time, and there are many people in Disney who oppose his ideas, such as the head of the touchstone.

There is also the expanding CAA, don't underestimate the energy of CAA, "Interview with the Vampire" released in November last year, starring Tom Cruise, the whole film is one of CAA's packaging plans.

The North American box office earned $105 million, and the global box office reached a whopping $223 million, almost sweeping away the negative impact of being rejected by Steven Spielberg.

When Universal Pictures began preparing to shoot "Jurassic Park", it had already agreed to cooperate with CAA as a packaged project.

No, the film's director, Steven Spielberg, strongly refused, and even persuaded Universal Pictures to cancel the cooperation with CAA.

Let CAA miss out on "Jurassic Park", such a film that can go down in Hollywood history.

However, with Steven Spielberg's influence in Hollywood and the Jewish circle, even the CAA does not dare to make some small moves.

However, with the success of the packaging service of "Interview with the Vampire" and the imminent reins of Michael Ovitz at the helm of Disney, CAA is bound to show its sharp minions.

Maybe he's CAA's next prey.

He doesn't have Steven Spielberg's connections and influence, so it's better to be cautious.

When she returned to the apartment, Charlize Theron, who still felt a little unreal, easily got an audition invitation.

Even if she only passes the first audition, she can get the real deal and even play a role in the film.

But for her, it's still very rare.

Charlize Theron had just returned to the apartment when a male agent greeted him and asked, "How's it going!"

"Ryan Gosling, did he say yes?"

The relationship between the agent and Charlize Theron is very close, and it is even said that their encounter is full of drama.

At one point, Charlize Theron was in dire need of money to pay her rent, but all she had was a check her mom had given her. The bank clerk told her that people who did not open a bank account could not cash the check.

While she was arguing with the bank clerk, a man who had been standing behind her came up and helped her negotiate with the bank.

Before leaving, the man gave Charlize Theron a business card and subsequently became her agent.

A legendary encounter scene.

"It's a bit complicated. ”

Charlize Theron sat down and told what had happened, without reservation.

"Although I didn't get an audition invitation for "Invasion of Evil Spirits" this time, I had another gain. ”

"He asked me to audition for the crew of "Truman's World" in May, and as long as I passed the first round of auditions, I would have the opportunity to play the role of the actor's wife in the film. ”

"Truman's World"!

The agent showed a hint of thought and said, "Is it a cooperation with Touchstone Pictures?"

It seems that some time ago, the topic of "Truman's World" was spreading, and unexpectedly, in the end, I did not choose to cooperate with Twentieth Century Fox, but chose Disney's Touchstone Pictures. ”

Charlize Theron showed a hint of surprise, he didn't expect the agent to know about "Truman's World", and it seemed that he was going to work with Twentieth Century Fox at the earliest.

"A great script?" she obviously didn't know what was going on, only that the film had an investment of $35 million.

"Yes, it's a great script. ”

The agent said very seriously: "Many studios wanted to buy the script, including Twentieth Century Fox, but Ryan Gosling didn't seem to agree, but chose to work with Touchstone and direct the film himself." ”

And, as you said, the film investment will be as high as $35 million. ”

"Take my words to heart and take advantage of this opportunity. The agent said meaningfully: "Ryan Gosling is obviously a person with a discipline, and trading with this kind of person is also a rare opportunity for you." ”

He'd seen a lot of people of all shapes, and Ryan wasn't unusual.

Charlize Theron nodded vigorously and said, "Next, what should I do?"

"Ask him out for dinner in a few days!"

"No, you don't do anything. The agent rejected her proposal and said, "I will find a way to help you get the script of "Truman's World". Next, your focus is on figuring out the characters in the script rather than doing anything else. ”

He saw very well that if Charlize Theron couldn't pass the first audition, then Ryan Gosling would definitely not promise anything.

This is a very principled person.
