"Two people, please sit here for a while."
In the Relativity Entertainment Company, Connie brought Wen Ziren and another white man of his age to the reception room and said: "You are too early. Ronan usually takes 8:30 to get to the company."
Connie did not know the white man, but knew Wen Ziren. She was also at the banquet hall last night, knowing that Ronan had a long conversation with this person.
However, Ronan has been stuck in the company during this period of time, and rarely comes in advance.
As Ronan's number one assistant, Connie knew very well that Ronan had been fighting with Anne Hathaway recently, and Anne Hathaway had moved into Ronan's manor.
Does Relativity Entertainment really need one more celebrity boss?
Connie sent two cups of coffee to the reception room, and then denied the idea.
Anne Hathaway is indeed very beautiful and she has face when she takes it out. She has a more cheerful personality and is very likable, but it is obviously unrealistic to expect a powerful figure who faces countless Hollywood actresses to settle down because of her.
As for men, when the fight is hot, they love each other, the freshness passes, and they will soon shift their goals.
Connie opened the makeup mirror and took a look. Fortunately, she was so average and gained Ronan's trust by virtue of her ability, so she didn't have to worry about the mess of Hollywood.
In the reception room, Wen Ziren looked at his watch from time to time. His face was drowsy that could not be concealed. Obviously, he did not rest well last night.
The white man next to him furrowed his brows into the word "Chuan", flipping the script in his hand slightly nervously, yawning from time to time, not much better than Wen Ziren.
"Wen, is there really hope?" Ray Warner couldn't help but confirm again: "It won't be the same as before, right?"
Wen Ziren yawned, shook his head vigorously, raised his mind, and said, "He didn't read the script, and just listened to me to tell the story. I don't know if I can impress him, but this is always an opportunity."
He also emphasized: "Ronan Anderson is not at least like the producers we met before, and he won't even give him a chance."
Ray Warner thought of hitting the wall one after another before, and instantly he didn't know where he flew to. He was a little bit decadent, and said: "This first time is too difficult, not the same as I thought. Before coming to Los Angeles, I I feel that with our two talents and abilities, with the script in hand, even if it is difficult to get investment in a film company, it will not be too difficult. Who knows..."
Wen Ziren shook his head: "We underestimated the difficulty, so there is such a dilemma." He seems to understand a lot of things: "The film talents of the world are concentrated in Hollywood, and countless people are looking for opportunities, but Hollywood studios invest every year. Limited, those who can get the investment are all famous people, leaving too few opportunities for newcomers."
After coming to Los Angeles from Australia for a few months, I have a general understanding of some situations. Of those new Hollywood directors, how many are the real new directors? Before becoming a film director, most people worked in the advertising industry or the v industry for a long time.
Few people have no practical experience like him and Ray Warner.
The reception room door knocked and someone pushed in. Wen Ziren looked up and quickly stood up and said, "Good morning, Mr. Anderson."
Ronan shook hands with him: "Good morning, Wen."
He turned his head to look at the white man. Because "Saw Cry" had a profound influence, he quickly recognized that this was one of the two leading male characters in the film.
Wen Ziren hurriedly introduced: "This is my friend, and Ray Warner, who worked with me to create the script."
Ronan shook hands with Ray Warner again, and a few words of greeting quickly came to the point.
"Wen, you said the outline of the story yesterday." Ronan asked directly: "Did you bring the script?"
"Bring it." Ray Wernar quickly handed the script to Ronan.
Ronan glanced at the script, the three letters "sa" on the cover were very eye-catching.
This is the English name of "Chain Saw".
Ronan asked: "This is the script based on your childhood nightmare?"
Wen Ziren nodded, and Ray Warner took the words: "Darkness, death, surprise, blood, these have always been things that Wen and I have been very interested in since childhood. We have liked watching horror movies since we were young, and we like "The Exorcist "The Shining" and "Ghost Driven" are the classic horror films of the 1970s and 1980s."
He smiled and said: "These films have caused a lot of terrifying dreams. Many details of this script are drawn from our unforgettable nightmares and childhood experiences."
Obviously, Ray Warner tried his best to tell the hard-won of the script, and wanted to get Ronan's attention.
Ronan nodded and opened the script to read it seriously. The script is not thick, only about 80 pages.
After a quick glance, Ronan quickly summarized the theme of the film. The protagonist has a high IQ and a successful career, but one day he was diagnosed with cancer, and time is running out. And he saw that there were too many people around him who originally had healthy bodies but squandered their lives, so he set up puzzles so that the lambs in his eyes could understand the meaning of life instead of wasting time. .
This is a madman who pretends to be a god: human beings are desperately sacrificing part of the self and dedicated to wasting time, so the jigsaw tortured the bodies of these people to make them understand the importance of life.
Although the script is still relatively rough, and many of them have flaws, this is undoubtedly "Chain Saw.
Ronan closed the script and asked, "Is there a project plan?"
Ray Warner was taken aback for a moment, Wen Ziren shook his head slightly: "We...we don't have one yet."
Ronan asked again: "Wen, do you want to sell the script copyright?"
"No, no, no!" Wen Ziren said quickly: "Ronan, we don't want to sell the copyright of the script."
He glanced at Ronan and knew that the next words were a bit outrageous, but he still summoned the courage to say: "I want to direct this project. I know that such a request is a bit excessive. Neither Lei nor I have experience in directing formal feature films, but no one Know your script better than we do."
Ronan seemed unmoved, Wen Ziren could undoubtedly be classified as a genius, but he could not pay a price that was inconsistent with the present because of the future, so he considered how to make Wen Ziren stay in the theory of relativity for a long time. Entertainment on this ship.
Wen Ziren thought that Ronan would give up after hearing the request to be a director, just like the producers he had contacted before. He added: "After graduating from film school, I was troubled by basic survival issues. Like many people, I am engaged in myself. Work without the slightest enthusiasm."
He continued: "I am unknown and poor. Although Lei and I want to make a movie, and there are many crazy ideas in our minds that have yet to be realized, we have no money to pour these ideas into real works. We continue to work on it. Work that I don’t like, but at the same time we work hard to save money and gather together to save simple but exciting ideas."
Ray Warner also had a bad feeling.
Wen Ziren tried his best to fight for: "We only need a very small budget to shoot a movie that scares the five big and three strong men!"
"You are passionate about movies, and I can feel this." Ronan put down the script and seemed to make a decision: "Wen, and Lei, although your script is not refined and flawed, but I am willing to share your passion And passionate investment."
"Uh..." Ray Warner was stunned.
Wen Ziren reacted and asked incredulously, "This...is this true?"
Ronan smiled and said, "I would like to invest in your project, "Chain Saw".
Ray Warner finally reacted and hugged Wen Ziren tightly and said incoherently: "Wen, did you hear that? We succeeded? We succeeded!"
Wen Ziren was also very excited, perhaps because of his family from the East. His emotions were not as exasperating as Ray Warnard. He tried his best to control the boiling mood and said, "Thank you, Mr. Anderson. Thank you for giving us a chance. ."
Ronan said, "Don't be too busy to thank me. There are some things that we need to say first. After all, I am a film investor and must be responsible for the entire company."
"Of course." Wen Ziren and Ray Warner said unanimously: "We understand that ~EbookFREE.me~ Ronan doesn't go in circles, he said directly: "You need to sell the script to Shahai Entertainment, and Shahai Entertainment owns the script and the movie. All copyrights of. Your script is very interesting, but it is only a niche type, the investment will not be high, and it needs to be controlled within 1.5 million US dollars. Wen, and Lei, if the film is successful, I hope to make it into a series of movies like "Death is Coming", so you need to sign a long-term contract with Shahai Entertainment. In addition, the two are newcomers, and your script copyright and remuneration are limited..."
Wen Ziren and Ray Warner looked at each other and said, "We sell the script to Shahai Entertainment for $1. I don't need the director's pay..."
Ronan is a bit strange. In order to earn this directorship, does Wen Ziren really have to fight for it?
Before he could speak, Wen Ziren said: "Mr. Anderson, I know that excessive investment will bring huge risks to the production company. We can give up the basic director's remuneration. Our remuneration will be paid in the form of later profit dividends. Can not bring profit, we give up all compensation."
Ronan did not change his face, but he was vigilant in his heart, but thinking that Wen Ziren and Ray Warnall are out-and-out newcomers, he shouldn't do it deliberately, but want to reduce the investors' doubts in this way to ensure that they can get The most important directorship.
If you are someone else, you might agree to Wen Ziren's terms. After all, the risk of a newcomer movie is too great.
But how could Ronan agree?
"No need. Wen, you also need to live, and you have to get the rewards you deserve." Ronan said pretty beautifully: "This little risk, Shahai Entertainment and I can still bear. If you want To reduce the pressure on the producer, I will do my best to complete this movie."
