The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 177 Recommend a Director

Seemingly thinking about the situation that day again, Amanda Seyfried said in a low voice: "I never thought that the villain is so close to me, and a respected producer is such a shameless person! "

Ronan touched his nose subconsciously, and said, "Many people can't just look at the surface."

"Yeah." Amanda kept nodding: "Ronan, I can see that not every producer is as good as you."

Who is Ronan? He didn't feel ashamed at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "Stay away from such a person. Amanda, protect yourself."

Amanda finally had a natural smile: "After I refused that day, I quickly ran away."

Ronan knew that, in fact, this was the best choice. The police could not solve the problem at all. The other party just invited Amanda Seyfried as a guest.

The society has developed to the present, and the speed of information dissemination is extremely fast. As long as some things are hinted a little, each other will understand what it means.

"Later, I always failed the audition." Amanda said again: "Could it be related to this person?"

Ronan thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say, it might be related."

Some producers have a very wide network of contacts, but the possibility of a relationship is relatively small. This kind of thing generally pays attention to your love and my willingness. If you refuse, no one will stick to it.

"Don't think too much, it's fine." Ronan comforted: "A TV producer, even if he has influence, can't influence me."

Amanda Seyfried nodded: "Well, I'll listen to you." She pointed to the outside of the living room: "I didn't tell my mother about this, I was afraid she would worry, so don't tell her, okay?"

Ronan promised: "Okay. This is a secret between the two of us."

Amanda Seyfried prepares to say goodbye: "I'm leaving."

Ronan warned: "If there are any problems that cannot be solved, just come to me."

Sending Amanda Seyfried to the front desk, Ronan said to Mrs. Seyfried again: "When the crew selects actors, I will let you know, and the audition process will also go through."

Mrs. Seyfried thanked in a hurry: "Mr. Anderson, thank you for giving Amanda a chance."

Amanda Seyfried just kept staring at Ronan,

Think about the shameless producer before, and look at Ronan again, the gap is too big.

The two quickly said their goodbyes and left. Ronan went back to the reception room to get the handbag and handed it to Eva at the front desk, asking her to share the cake.

Afterwards, Ronan returned to the office, finished the work at hand, and began to carefully read the first draft of "Twilight" written by Lindsay Beer. Since he had never seen the original version in his previous life, and the movie was greatly adapted, he did not know What are the specific changes.

After spending three days, Ronan read the first draft intermittently, and didn't think there was anything that could be changed.

There are too many such slots, and the Mary Sue theme alone is not very popular with men.

Through the company's channels, Ronan contacted an editor from Random House, and recommended them to the past. Those commercial editors may not be able to write books, but they have a deep understanding of the book market, and they will put forward professional revision opinions. , far better than outsiders like Ronan.

There will be a review period at the publishing house, and it will take a while to get specific news.

On the workstation, there was a stack of books next to Lindsay Bill. When Ronan passed by, she was holding a copy of "1984" to read.

Ronan has never read this book, but he has heard of it. Together with "American New World" and "Us", it is also known as the three masterpieces of dystopia.

Lindsay Bill saw Ronan pull away the chair next to him and sit down, and said with a smile, "Boss."

"Is this in preparation for The Hunger Games?" Ronan asked.

"I have nothing else to do now. I took a few days off and collected some dystopian books." Lindsay Bill put a bookmark in the book and said, "I think "The Hunger Games" is better than "Twilight" Difficult to write, and it also touches on totalitarian rule and politics, which I'm lacking in."

It is always good to make more preparations, and Ronan agreed: "I will let Connie send someone to assist you in collecting information."

Lindsay Bill certainly wouldn't refuse: "I'll be able to start work soon with some assistance." She glanced at Ronan and said tentatively, "The sooner you start writing, the sooner you can finish it."

Ronan was a little surprised because he was paid by the week.

Lindsay Beal's voice was much softer: "I want to be a screenwriter early."

Ronan immediately understood what she meant, and said, "Don't worry, finish these three parts. As long as you are willing, you are welcome to join the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment."

Valuable people deserve recognition.

After chatting with Lindsay Bill about the main plot and character setting of "The Hunger Games", Ronan left the company and rushed to Warner Studios, where the crew of "The Purge 2" has already settled here.

Any film producer with some experience will follow the successful experience and template. Warner Studios can be called the blessed land of Shahai Entertainment. Several films shot here, even "Kingsman", which failed at the box office, won the company a lot of money. Big income.

Warner Studios is already run-down now, and the rental fee is not as high as it was back then. There is also an independent office area and a suitable post-production studio inside, which can provide a lot of convenience for the crew.

Due to an appointment with Tom Cruise, Ronan soon arrived at Warner Studios.

Unexpectedly, Tom Cruise arrived earlier than him.

When Ronan arrived, Tom Cruise was talking to Andrew about the general situation of the crew.

"Hi, Tom." Ronan greeted proactively.

Tom Cruise shook his hand and joked, "You're late."

In the past few exchanges, plus the current cooperation, Ronan was not polite to him, saying: "You came early."

Tom Cruise smiled brightly: "I just came here too."

Ronan looked at him slightly. Tom Cruise looked normal and didn't seem to be affected by the media too much.

Recently, there have been more and more rumors about Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, and the media has also fueled the flames. It is said that the couple has separated, and the divorce battle is imminent.

Compared with Tom Cruise's silence, Nicole Kidman gave full play to the advantages of women, cried and complained about the misfortune of marriage in several interviews, and mentioned several times that Tom Cruise had signed a prenuptial agreement with her , as if she were a miserable victim and Tom Cruise was going to let her go.

If a man complains publicly about this kind of thing, he will definitely be scolded, and the hats of being unmannered and miserly will never be taken off his head.

And what about women? It's easy to win sympathy.

As for true or false? Nobody cares.

What the media needs is eye-catching news, and the audience only believes what they can see.

In his previous life, when Ronan first saw the report of the divorce case of the century, he had infinite sympathy for Nicole Kidman and hated Tom Cruise, but things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

"How is the crew?" Tom Cruise didn't seem to be affected too much: "How's the progress?"

Andrew said: "It is planned to start shooting in mid-April, and the shooting will be completed in early June at the latest. All post-production will be completed in September, and it will be released on Halloween this year."

Tom Cruise turned to look at Ronan: "Distributed by your distribution company?"

Ronan confirmed: "Embassy Pictures is responsible for North American and overseas distribution."

Tom Cruise has some doubts: "Is there no problem overseas?"

He knew that Ronan had established an overseas distribution channel for the embassy film industry, and he had also contributed to it, otherwise there would be no investment opportunities for "Human Purge 2".

Ronan said: "Embassy Pictures has almost taken over the distribution department of Polygram Pictures, and most of the distribution offices around the world have been completed. Alan Albert is a talent, and he is working on several films for Sandsea Entertainment Overseas distribution plan."

"Speaking of which, I really admire you." Tom Cruise didn't seem to be lying: "In just one year, you have established extremely critical North American distribution channels and overseas distribution channels, which DreamWorks has not done. arrive."

Ronan smiled: "Good luck. Really, good luck. Such an opportunity is rare."

In the next ten years, there will never be such a good opportunity again. DreamWorks has been falling apart, neither established nor bought overseas distribution channels, and can only withdraw under the pressure of the six major companies.

Tom Cruise's tone was not without envy: "Except for the Big Six, there are very few such companies in Hollywood that can independently produce and distribute films."

Ronan knew he was telling the truth. There were many Hollywood companies that could distribute films in North America, but very few had the ability to distribute them overseas.

"Tom." Ronan said suddenly: "You and your friends' company, if there is a film to be released, you can contact my Embassy Films."

"I'll find you if I need you," Tom Cruise said.

He has participated in the investment of many films, and even owns part of the copyright of the "Mission: Impossible" series, but he has no consideration in this regard for the time being.

Until Embassy Pictures proves its ability to distribute overseas, it certainly cannot take risks.

Andrew has work to do, Ronan took Tom Cruise around the studio, director James Huang went to Long Beach to inspect the location, and the entire director team is not here for the time being.

Turning around, when he came to the entrance of the studio, Ronan suddenly thought that Tom Cruise had worked hard in Hollywood for nearly 20 years and became a first-line star for more than 10 years. He has a wide network of contacts, and maybe he can recommend a suitable Candidates.

"Fatal Turn" has not found a suitable director.

"By the way, Tom." Since Ronan has made friends with Tom Cruise, he is not polite at this time: "You have a lot of contacts in Hollywood and know a lot of people. Can you recommend a director for me?"

Tom Cruise asked: "Do you have a movie project?"

Ronan said naturally: "An original horror film."

Hearing about the original, Tom Cruise lost interest instantly. For the sequel, he can still try to see if Ronan is willing to accept investment, and forget about the original movie.
