Chapter 806?

Claire..."

The lyrics of many songs in the second album were a bit colorful, and the stadium could not sing. When Song Ya played Young Dumb in the curtain call, the audience cheered more than Underwood. Appear.

Sloan, who stayed in the box to socialize, received a call, "Mr. Underwood, I'm sorry, APLUS has urgent matters, and he must rush to Hollywood immediately."

"Can you tell us?"

Underwood and his wife looked at each other.

"Nothing, it's Hollywood trouble..." Sloan explained: "The director of his movie project just made a negative comment."

The Thanksgiving schedule is approaching, the cat and mouse game has launched the last round of screenings, and the ban on film reviews has been lifted. The biographies, the themes of the 1960s, and the mainstream commercial dramas are added. Disney has won a lot of publicity resources, and the professional response is naturally very good.

The project is expected to sell well, and it is frequently reported that it will be shortlisted for various film awards from the end of this year to the beginning of next year.

The prototype of the protagonist, Abagnale, is the most active. He is full of energy to attend events and variety shows, give speeches, talk about the upcoming cat-and-mouse game everywhere, and promote his new book published along with the trend: "The Art of Stealing".

Followed by Jared Leto, the blond actor has a very good appeal among young people, especially the American girl group who fell in love with him from my so-called life dramas, lace scandals, clothing, drama, and character Waiting for various press releases to win a lot of exposure.

Handsome, loves to play rock music, quiet, infatuated, talented in life...

His agent began to help create various labels, and he himself was very competitive, basically insulated from negative news. During the announcement stage, he always appeared in a suit or punk style, with long hair parted in the middle and a soft short beard. The character design is a bit between Johnny Depp and Xiao Lizi, but he is more obedient and doesn't play around.

"Seriously, does he look a bit like Jesus on the cross when he wears this hairstyle? The face shape and appearance are similar, with deep-set eye sockets, beautiful double eyelids and long eyelashes, and the loneliness and melancholy that always appear... ..."

After boarding the plane in a hurry, Song Ya put down the gossip magazine in her hand and smiled.

"Well, he doesn't matter, and now director Ridley Scott is publicly accusing Disney of editing his film completely out of context..." Dr. May reminded.

"I know, I'll talk about it when I see them.

"

Director Ridley Scott has been throwing temper tantrums since the first screening. In his opinion, the work that he put his heart and soul into was cut to pieces by the distribution company, and even ridiculed by film critics. Imitating Spielberg, he and Spielberg are basically contemporaries. He is ten years older and lags behind in commercial achievements, but he does not lose in artistic achievements, at least he is unwilling to admit defeat.

Now the outside world is saying that he can't get a job because he rushed to the street, so he had to learn from the successful man, Spielberg, who has the highest box office in film history, and imitated the other's film rhythm and began to shoot mainstream commercial films.

Artists of Ridley Scott's level are, without exception, very arrogant. They are always said to be trend-following imitators. It's not that he doesn't want to bear it. Zeng Gao, after being asked relevant questions again and again, finally couldn't hold back, and suddenly broke out, complaining in front of the camera about how much his movie was cut and how much was cut, and directly pointed the finger at The two companies under Disney, Hollywood Pictures, which is responsible for the production, and Bo Wei Pictures, which is responsible for the distribution.

"He has a criminal record. After Blade Runner failed at the box office, he incited fans to attack Warner for ten years. When Warner released the director's cut version last time, he still insisted that it was not the real director's cut version. Disgraced. We Disney are not used to his bad temper..."

In the conference room of Hollywood Pictures, the executive president of Bowei Pictures was holding a cigar, very unhappy, "Linton, let me just say it, if you can't handle what he said, you don't even want to get good resources, Pixar The Toy Story screening in the schedule is better, and we are more optimistic about the family carnival animation."

"Wouldn't it be worse? If the cat and mouse game was like Blade Runner, which failed at the box office at the time but gradually gained word of mouth over time, we would all be blamed in the end." Linton didn't want to see the cat and mouse game hit the street, Hastily persuaded.

"I just said that he shouldn't be hired as a director." The executive president of Bowei Films let go of the aftermath, "Is it all right now? Then what do you think we should do?"

These two senior managers consider issues not from the perspective of the company, but from the perspective of individuals. For them, the success of the project is the second priority. Naturally, the first priority is not to let their careers be blamed, such as The movie Blade Runner had no box office, and the Warner executives who made the decision at the time had to be chased and scolded by the aggrieved Ridley Scott and fans for ten years, who can stand it.

Although Blade Runner finally made a lot of money in the video market by relying on its super high reputation, professional managers can't wait that long, maybe before they get back, they will be picked up by the boss who became angry and fired. Who makes sense?

"So the cat-and-mouse game project cannot fail, and today we'd better persuade that stubborn old man." Linton said.

"Hmph, anyway, I didn't cut it."

The executive president of Bowei Films glanced at Song Ya and Yeremov who were listening from one left and one right, and sneered to pave the way for himself.

"Uh, anyway, let's try to persuade him later."

Song Ya looked at Yeremov.

"Boss...can we go out and talk? Go out and talk..."

Yeremov was very aggrieved, nodded and bowed to the bosses and invited Song Ya out of the meeting room, "The old man is very emotional now, we can't deal with him, the best result now is the success of the cat and mouse game at the box office, everyone will take two shots in the future No matter what he says, it won't have a big impact on us."

"Do you want to persuade me to turn back?"

"I can't persuade you to turn back, even Warner can't do anything to him, we..."

Yeremov grumbled under his breath, "Maybe we shouldn't cut too many."

"Is it my fault?"

Song Ya is upset, I made it according to the original version!

Of course, this is nothing to say to the outside world, "In short, success at the box office is no big deal, right?"

"That's right," Eremov replied.

"Um."

Ridley Scott hadn't come yet, and the two didn't bother to go back to the oppressive conference room, so they simply hid outside and chatted, "My forest... no, how are Amy and the others' careers going?"

"Which Amy? Oh, Amy Adams has entered the penultimate round of auditions for the modern remake of Romeo and Juliet, and he has a strong opponent, with 'what the fuck' heroine Reese Witherspoon, the Addams family And Ghost Horse Fairy heroine Christina Ricci, the killer is not too cold heroine Natalie Portman. Sense and Sensibility female partner Kate Winslet, Kate also got the heroine of the Titanic, the same as the little Li Zi plays a couple. And my so-called life heroine Claire Danes, he, like Leto, also became popular through that drama, and the role is even more important..."

"Hayden and William Morris were fighting for the part of Amy, and the competition was fierce," Yeremov said.

"Wow, are they all young actresses with both strength and connections?" Song Ya gasped, "Amy doesn't have an advantage in any aspect."

Both Christina Ricci and Natalie Portman showed their amazing acting skills at a very young age. He knows that Amy should not be as good as them now. Kate Winslet is from a British academy, and Hollywood recognizes them there Drama school and West End qualifications.

In terms of appearance... Amy doesn't have any advantages, everyone is beautiful, but they have different styles, "No, I have to ask Xiao Lizi to help, he is the hero, right?"

"Yes, he beat Christian Bale early on in the casting fight, but... you beat him."

"I'm stupid, I personally asked for a role, Emmm..."

Song Ya looked at the ceiling and recalled, "Xiao Lizi seems to be quite afraid of David. He asked Hayden to ask David Geffen for help. I will also call him. He likes me very much now."

Yeremov continued to report.

Harley recited words this year, and the producer of the King Solomon and Sheba project was played hard by the producer, and the war between the biological mother and the adoptive mother filmed before director Stephen Glenhall, the sequel of my life, also made a big splash, 1700 Wan's production cost was more than 7 million yuan at the box office, but the film's artistic reputation was very good. Before the awards season, she finally turned around and won praise from many acting critics. Recently, she is filming the action blockbuster Highest Crisis.

Charlize Theron got a lot of good opportunities from herself and through her agent. Since Spike Lee's No. 6 call girl was filmed in New York, and the other auditions were basically in Hollywood, she has been busy with two jobs recently. run around.

Ellen Pompeo is also content to join the cast of Jurassic Park screenwriter David Kemp's debut feature 'Mutant'.

"Well, well." Song Yazheng nodded to express his satisfaction. There was a sudden quarrel in the office, and Ridley Scott should have arrived.

The old man brought a lot of battles this time. The lawyer, agent, his brother, Anthony Scott, who is also the director, and the top management of the "free film studio" seemed really pissed off.

"I know it's you, it's you Linton."

Song Ya and Yeremov sneaked in, and Ridley Scott had already fired at Linton, "During the shooting, you have been over budget for this scene, and there is no need for that scene to interfere with my director Authoritative and normal work, I have endured you for a long time, I never thought you would not give up, and cut my movie to look like this privately!"

"In any case, it is irresponsible for you to spread that kind of remarks before the movie is released. Ridley, what will the film critics and the major award judges think of the cat and mouse game when you make such remarks? You are a veteran in the industry , you know that doing so will be very detrimental to the film's award..."

The executive president of Bowei Films came to the rescue for Linton, "This is a major blow to our long-term screening plan."

"So I brought the lawyer. I know that I violated the director's contract, and I am willing to pay compensation." The old man said stiffly.

"It's not about the money Mr Scott, you can't make those comments anymore, it's not good for us."

Linton was also sulking, and Song Ya knew it was time to speak up, "You know the situation of A+ Films and Hollywood Films, we can't afford to lose..."

"Then he shouldn't have cut my movie!"

Ridley Scott stared at Linton and said, "I don't want to challenge Disney's final editing rights, but Linton has cut too much, and the released version has caused a very big blow to my personal reputation. I'm not saying I hate Spielberg, I have a great personal relationship with him, but I can't stand people thinking I'm copying him!"

"What's the matter with you, Ridley, it's all my fault?"

Linton couldn't take it anymore, "APLUS and I prepared a complete script for you, and the final editing also followed the script, you insisted on shooting those extra shots... And, and you are the one to blame for this matter Isn’t it APLUS? He insisted on cutting it like that, not me!”

"Linton, you... M-fxxk..."

Song Ya didn't expect that he would sell his teammates decisively. The eyes of Ridley Scott's group had all been betting on them. They could only squeeze out a smile and said bravely: "Mr. Scott, I think so ..."

"You are so shameless, Linton, to shirk responsibility on the 21-year-old child? Why? Think I won't be ashamed to lose my temper with APLUS?"

Unexpectedly, Ridley Scott didn't believe it at all, turned his head and continued to scold Linton, "I know it's you, it's you, only you can do it!"

Song Ya immediately shrank her neck when she heard this, and lowered her body down along the seat.
