Chapter 518: Cumbersome

The battery car sent the two people to the entrance of the studio. Just out of the studio, Charlize Theron could not wait to ask: "Michelle, is there a result?"
Michelle Simmons nodded. "Let's talk to the car."
Seeing the action of Michelle Simmons, Charlize Theron finally settled down. After a burst of excitement, there was a faint loss. For this meeting, she prepared for so long and owed the broker. People did not care about the debt, I did not expect that the whole process, Eric Williams just told her some kind of nutritious words, and even the eyes did not fall too much on her.
People's minds are always like this. Although Charlize Theron has apparently listened to the arrangements of the brokers, he still has some small abacus in his own private, but these careful machines have not even had any chance to implement during the whole meeting.
The two got on the bus, and Michelle Simmons was thinking about her own things, until the car drove out Santa Monica, she realized that Charlize Theron had not spoken for a while.
"Is it a little lost?" Michelle Simmons glanced at Charlize Theron on the co-pilot.
Charlize Theron was subconsciously trying to deny, but when he saw the smile of the agent, he nodded slightly.
"I just didn't make it clear, it was like this," organized the language, Michelle Simmons said: "Mr. Williams said that he has seen your performance in the "Buffy" audition, it is not bad, so You have successfully got the character, but there are three heroines in the movie, you are just one of them."
Charlize Theron showed a happy expression to the agent. However, Michelle Simmons still saw the loss of the girl next to her, explaining: "This is a movie that is absolutely dominated by the heroine. The scale of the investment is comparable to that of the "Smiths" and it is still Eric. Williams personally dominates. So, you should be thankful for your luck. If the film publicly recruits the heroine, it will be enough to make the entire Hollywood age-old actress crazy, in that case, you will not have any chance."
"That..." Charlize Theron thought for a moment. Asked: "From today's point of view, since... Since he is not interested in me, why can I still get this role?"
"Who knows, it may be that you meet it," Michelle Simmons thought of this question at this time. Although there are some doubts, but there is no deeper meaning, it is estimated that in addition to Eric Williams himself, no one knows why. As for what the other party thinks, she did not have the intention to ask in person.
As he spoke, Michelle Simmons saw a large-scale BesTV videotape rental store on the side of the road, parked the car on the side of the road and walked in with Charlize Theron.
Looking for a while. Michelle Simmons found a complete video of the "Charlie's Angel" TV series. She did not choose to rent, but bought it directly. Although I have seen this TV series. But that was already more than a decade ago. Since taking over the task of picking the heroine, Michelle Simmons plans to take a look at the TV series and do some work carefully.
Charlize Theron saw the figure of the three hot girls on the video cassette, and realized that she was going to star in the movie version of the TV series. "Charlie's Angel" was a TV series that was aired in 1976, when Charlize Theron was just born. It is also far from living in a small farm in South Africa, and it is impossible to reach them.
The two returned to the car with a bag full of videotapes. Michelle Simmons drove the car and continued the original topic: "You are getting this role anyway. So there is no need to investigate why you got it. After all, there is nothing else you can do." If Rick Williams doesn't have a picture of you, there is no need to take such a circle, so do what you should do."
Charlize Theron held a video cassette in his hand and looked at the text on the back of the video. He heard the agent say, "What do I do next?"
Michelle Simmons thought for a moment and said, "I remember that you don't seem to have a driver's license yet? In the last two months, you first learn to drive and take the driver's license. This is an action movie. You must be exposed to driving. The scene. And I also need to leave Los Angeles for a while, two months later, your schedule will be arranged by the film company, Williams said, to train you for three months." Speaking of here, Michel Simmons added Eric’s original words:
He said that the training for the three months will be very difficult and strict. If you can’t eat it, it’s best to quit beforehand.

Charlize Theron is certainly not likely to quit, but she has caught the other meaning of the agent: "You just said ‘we’?

Michelle Simmons didn't expect Charlize Theron to be so sensitive. "Yeah, you, besides you, I have to look for two other girls. According to Williams' request, I need to go to one. In Europe, if it goes well, it should be very fast, and the longest time will not exceed two months. This is the deadline he gave."
"What do I do?" Charlize Theron has not had time to think about the other two competitors in the future. If the agent leaves, she will definitely not be able to stay in Kapoor Sid's mansion in Beverly Hills. It’s gone, and her money in Cary is not enough to live in Los Angeles for two months.
Michelle Simmons also understood the meaning of Charlize Theron and said: "I will arrange it for you. The cost will be deducted from your pay in the future. Before leaving, I will send you with the fireflies. The contract is signed first, so you have a formal contract."
From the signing of Michelle Simmons last fall, Charlize Theron was the first to hear the word paying with her, this time she was really excited: "Michelle, I What is the approximate salary?"
Michelle Simmons fingered on the steering wheel and thought about it for a moment, saying: "This kind of big-production movie, even if it is a newcomer, should not be too small. But the actress's pay is often lower than the male star. Intercept, not to mention "Charlie's Angel" has three heroines, so I need to know the specific pay, I guess you should pay between 100,000 and 200,000. Of course, if the future film If you sell it, the producer will definitely give you some extra rewards."
One more thing, Michelle Simmons did not say that Charlie Theron’s pay should be the lowest among the three female protagonists in the plan, while the other two heroines intend to use the actress who has emerged in Europe. So, in time they have little influence in North America. The pay is also correspondingly higher.
Although this number is far from the number of superstars that have been seen in magazines, but Charlie Theron is very satisfied, at least it is a good start, she is not the kind of high-profile people, and . This money should also be enough for her for a long time without having to worry about trivial matters such as livelihood, and can concentrate on preparing for the film.
A few days later, Michelle Simmons signed the film "Charlie's Angel" on behalf of Charlize Theron and Firefly, although the strange production company of Flower Film made her and Charlize Theron somewhat confused. The $200,000 payoff is still a bit of a surprise for both. Although this figure is not a big deal relative to the cost of production that is destined to exceed $50 million, it is the best of Michelle’s expectations, but . Perhaps because of this comparison of the 'excellent' pay, there is also an option contract attached to the contract, after Charlize Theron appeared in the first part of "Charlie's Baby". There must be two more sequels in the next five years.
......
At the beginning of March, after the last period of intense and busy, Eric successfully completed all the post-production work of Jurassic Park.
After watching the film, Eric was also full of confidence in the box office prospects of the film, in addition to the same ups and downs in the memory version. This edition of Jurassic Park is even better than the original in terms of special effects, after all. The film in the original time and space was Spielberg's work after the defeat of Captain Hawke, although it was a great success. However, in the production process, the film company does not have 100% confidence, so the budget is also tight, and many details can not be 100% perfect. However, this version made by Eric burned only $75 million in the budget of the project. In order to provide special technical support for the series, the digital field has just started. The corresponding technology research and development has been carried out, and this process has also cost a lot of money.
After the completion of Jurassic Park, the marketing plan around the film was launched quickly. A week later, Firefly released the first poster of Jurassic Park, and the theme store of Disney began to The surrounding products of Ji Park are arranged. With Disney's hundreds of surrounding stores all over North America and Europe, as long as the film has achieved the expected success, Firefly Film will be profitable in the shortest period of time with the sale of peripheral products.
There are three films in the summer of Firefly, Jurassic Park, The Great World and the Bugs Crisis. Eric is very clear about the box office power of Jurassic Park, in order not to affect the latter two. At the box office of the movie, Eric set the Jurassic Park schedule on June 4th, followed by a three-week interval on June 25th, which is completely different from the Jurassic Park type. "It was released again, and the "World and Earth Clash", which belongs to the special effects theme, was placed on July 2nd. Although the box office of Jurassic Park is still in this period, it will not be a big collision. 》 caused too much impact.
The films released by fireflies in recent years have become the focus of other film companies. Many people discovered the unusualities after the fireflies were released.
Firefly's previous release schedule in the hot period has been to launch different films in two weeks.
But if you don't consider the 3D cartoon released by Firefly's Disney in the "Bug Crisis", the two films released by the summer fireflies will be a whole month apart. The keen people almost immediately realized that the fireflies must not be optimistic about Jurassic Park. Last year's "Tornado" global nearly $700 million in the box office still made many people in Hollywood remember, and the fireflies were Jurassic Park’s emphasis is clearly beyond the Tornado.
For various reasons, some second- and third-line movie companies with relatively flexible operating mechanisms have chosen to delay the summer movie in order to avoid the "Jurassic Park". In the big movie company, Michael Eisner also topped it. With the pressure from the top of the world, the "Desperate End of the World", which was originally intended to be released at the end of June, was postponed to mid-July, and was reversed with a mid-cost romance film of the same period.
Although many people publicly accuse Michael Eisner of being too cautious, Michael Eisner insisted on not explaining too much to others. However, Eric, who heard the news, sighed a little about Michael Eisner’s enthusiasm. If Michael Eisner insisted on losing the face and insisted on the original schedule of "Desperate", then there is a good show. It is.
Some people take the initiative to withdraw, of course, some people do not believe in evil. There are even two movies that have the idea of ​​'sniping' Jurassic Park. These two films are Stallone’s "The Great Wind" and Schwarzenegger’s new film "The Last Action Hero". The films were produced by the German-owned Karlock Films, one in the week before Jurassic Park and one in the Jurassic Park one week after the release.
Eric has long noticed the two big films, so the production department temporarily stranded the negotiation with Arnold Schwarzenegger in "The Real Lies." I didn't expect the two films to hit the muzzle of Jurassic Park.
After completing the late Jurassic Park, Eric did not relax, and a series of cumbersome things required him to handle it himself.
Under the recommendation of David Geffen, the actor of "Vietnamese Vampire" is still determined to be Tom Cruise, the second actor is sent. An Australian actor under Kingsley takes it, Eric Memory There is no information about the actor named Jack Slater, which is estimated to be the result of the butterfly effect. On the actor side, Eric’s only intervention was to re-find Kirsten Dunst, who is said to have a 35-year-old soul. The little girl was just eleven years old, and the audition effect gave the director Neil. Several of the main creatives including Jordan are satisfied. (To be continued)
