The next day, Song Ya, Yeremov and others came out of New Line Films with gloomy faces. The other party did not ask for a private meeting like Harvey Weinstein, but the talk was even more unsatisfactory.

"It's a pity, his family's self-publishing ability is very good, and the theaters with good relations are all around the school where young people gather..."

Yeremov said regretfully, "Their release of Dancing Out of My Life is one of the best choices. The film selection routes and target groups overlap."

"They seem to be betting on Jim Carrey next year?" Hayden asked.

"Yes, Warner Bros. has two Jim Carrey movies to be released next year, Jack in the Masquerade and The Masquerade." Yeremov replied, "New Line is in charge of The Masquerade."

"Is Jim Carrey so worthy of Warner's praise? His acting style..." Hayden asked.

"Who knows, but there is always a market for comedy films, and most of the audience go to the cinema to watch it for fun." Yeremov replied.

"Give it up. The three hearts I watched yesterday were also produced and released by New Line. They had a lot of complaints about Xue Linfen not cooperating with the show. It is impossible for this second-tier Hollywood company not to know that I helped Xue Linfen in Modern Stone. The family has been looking for a role, and then Three Hearts failed miserably at the box office. So the attitude towards me...you have also seen it just now."

Song Ya can't help it, "And last year, David Lynch's Shuangfeng Town movie version was also produced and released by his family. They have a good relationship with David Lynch. I happened to have a holiday with Lynch's daughter. I cooperated with them myself You can’t be completely reassured.”

"The negative effect of offending the second generation of the leader has begun to appear."

Yeremov said: "David Lynch is the noble man of Nicolas Cage. His wild heart helped Cage get the Palme d'Or to completely complete the transformation of acting school, and he broke away from the film industry based solely on the relationship of the Coppola family. It’s a stereotype. Johnny Depp was recommended by Nicolas Cage to enter the film industry. Johnny Depp is also Tim Burton’s favorite. He and River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves are three popular niches. They hang out all day long."

"It's far away."

If Hollywood is so united, there won't be so much confrontation and struggle, Song Ya said: "But let's try to avoid that group of people as much as possible, just to be on the safe side."

"By the way, Johnny Depp will release a movie called A Different Sky at the end of the year. Does anyone know about the lead actor?" Hayden wheezed again.

"who?"

"Little Lizi, I used to be very optimistic about him, haha." Hayden should have remembered the time when he invested in two Xiaolizi movies before.

"Remind me to watch that movie at that time." Xiao Lizi will definitely become popular, but Song Ya will not foolishly invest money to make Hollywood fool him.

"By the way, Xiao Lizi is very suitable for the role of the heroine's boyfriend, right?" Yeremov also knew Xiao Lizi, "Isn't he just a little boy? He's white, and his age is just right."

"Will he be willing to play the villain?" Hayden asked. In movies, the man who is robbed of his girlfriend by the hero is usually a villain, and the audience will not feel the slightest sympathy.

"Just ask, if it's not the same Sky Box Office hit the street, it should not be difficult to invite." Yeremov said.

"Okay, write it down." Song Ya closed her eyes and thought for a while, and the shape was indeed suitable.

Two days on the weekend, I ended my trip to Hollywood and communicated with a series of potential partners. The production company that danced my life is still unclear, but the news that AP will spend 8 million to enter Hollywood spread quickly, and many small companies even sent People who came to Chicago took the initiative to recommend themselves. As for the motivation, it is hard to say. After all, it is the consensus of Hollywood that singers are rich in money.

"We don't consider those small companies anymore. Even if my first film does not sell well, it must ensure quality."

Song Ya directly drew a line, "Looking for partners at the level of the companies we talked about before, who else has no contact? Touchstone Films?"

"I will contact you one by one." Yeremov reminded: "This can't be delayed, think about it, set up a production team, get the director and dancer candidates,

The scene script is produced, the detailed budget is formulated, and then the actors are selected. After the selection, the two protagonists have to practice dancing, and the other dancers have to rehearse and adjust the group dance. According to the plan, I have to join the group at the beginning of next year, so there is only half a year, and it will pass in a flash. "

"Um……"

Song Ya walked to her honor corner, saw the platinum record certification on the wall from those various trophies, and was slightly dazed for a while, "Hayden...do you remember the fight between me and Motura?"

"How could I not remember, I still have lingering fears." Hayden replied.

"Isn't the situation at that time similar to this time? I whimsically mentioned the condition that there must be loopholes to exploit, and asked to talk to various companies. As a result, Motura chose to match this condition, but that was because he had already had a ulterior motive. It’s a plan, but SBK and Atlantic Records, whose prices are not as good as I like, are companies that really have no bad intentions.”

Song Ya said: "So I've been thinking about it for the past two days. If you look at it the other way around, it's the best choice to cooperate with Amblin Entertainment."

"This is also the reason." Hayden said: "But what about the price? The bargaining power in front of Spielberg is too weak."

"Let's talk again. In fact, I don't have many choices. The partner must be a big production company. Besides avoiding some potential threats, it is best to have a good high-level relationship. Then there are only Amblin Entertainment and Geffen Films. The Universal series, and Miramax and Touchstone Pictures’ Disney series.” Song Ya said: “After all, I only know three big Hollywood figures, Spielberg, David Geffen, and Katzenberg. "

"Katenberg is under the rank of Mike Eisner at Disney, and above ten thousand people. In this regard, the Disney series has a greater advantage than the Universal series." Eremov said.

"But my relationship with Katzenberg is the shallowest, and he has the least shares in DTS." Song Ya hesitated.

"Well, Disney CEO Mike Eisner and CAA President Michael Ovitz have a very good relationship. They have known each other since they were children, and they have played together since childhood..." Hayden added hesitantly, "And Harvey Weinstein us But it can't be done."

Song Ya rolled his eyes. It was still the old problem of William Morris' lack of strength. He didn't hold Hayden responsible for exposing this point now. Anyway, he planned to toss them when he renewed his contract for the second time in 1994. "Then only Universal... Actually, I would have preferred to work with Geffen Films, if only he hadn't put so much effort into Interview with the Vampire."

"Decided?" Yeremov and Hayden looked at each other and asked.

"I've decided, just the two of them, let's talk again. I can make some concessions to Amblin Entertainment, such as raising the budget by one or two million."

Song Ya sent them back to Los Angeles, back to Highland Park.

"Hey Charis, how are you doing?"

Amy Adams was pressing her legs while talking on the phone while watching the dance teaching on TV, but she didn't find herself.

When Song Ya heard the name of Charlize Theron in her mouth, her heart moved, and she stopped and eavesdropped quietly.

"AP is making a movie? I don't know. He never talks to me about business."

"I really don't know at all, what's going on in Hollywood?"

"Dancing movies? What else have you heard?"

"Him? Didn't mention dancing practice to me. He didn't practice it himself, did he? He usually goes home from school, goes home from school, and occasionally goes on business trips and record companies. But he has been insisting on exercising, um."

"Why do you keep asking these questions? What's the matter?"

"Okay, okay, I'll ask him... Who knows, he can dance hip-hop, yes, that kind of random stuff."

"Well, I'll call him after I ask."

"bye……"

"Bichi." She threw the phone casually on the sofa, switched legs, and continued pressing.

"Amy, I'm finally growing up..." Song Ya lowered her head and smiled, and returned to the study without disturbing her.

"You haven't finished your homework yet." Taraji had already spread the book to the page of the study progress and made a glass of milk.

Song Ya sat down and started to deal with her studies. The philosophy class at the University of Chicago started with Greek classical philosophy, and the reference books were all difficult and obscure tomes, which was very difficult to read.

"Okay, okay, don't be like this..." Song Ya stopped the little assistant who wanted to rub his shoulders diligently, "Have time to hone your acting skills, has the acting teacher been here?"

"Two days on the weekend, teach me and Amy..."

Taraji replied, when the landline rang, "Okay!" She hurried over to answer it excitedly, "Mr. Schneider? Uh, AP is studying, can you make an appointment to..."

"give it to me."

Song Ya asked the microphone to come over, "Zach, I heard about it too? Hollywood knows it, right? Haha, yes, I first found John Singleton, Spike Lee, etc..."

"I..." Zack Schneider hesitated to speak.

"Zach, I know what I want, but it's hard to say now, let's... sure, I won't forget." He hung up the phone, "Hollywood knows, let old Mike connect the landline and the bedroom line Turn them all out..."

Just as he was giving orders, Taragina's cell phone rang again. She glanced at the number, didn't answer it, and handed it over directly. .

"Hi, Mi..." It was Mariah Carey.

"Got it too? What? Mistress? Don't...don't make trouble, my dear."
