Legendary Hollywood Director

During this period of time, Wen Ziren took some of the main creators of Dead Silence to promote it among European countries in batches.

On the other hand, Nolan also came back from the UK and discussed the script of Deadly Magic with his younger brother Jonathan all day long, deleting and revising it.

After that, the top was busy with Pan's Labyrinth, and Johnson and Eva had also made an appointment with Lauren Weisberg, the author of The Devil Wears Prada, and bought the copyright back from Fox. Among them After spending $5 million, Fox made another $3 million.

Of course, maybe Fox will regret it after the movie is released.

But movies are also a business. You can celebrate if you make money, and you have to accept your fate if you are cheated. Anyway, Fox has been slow to develop projects, and it is completely unnecessary to discuss the ownership of copyright later.

After the copyright of Prada is taken back, Greene Pictures will re-sign an adaptation contract with Lauren.

With Eva's current strength, of course, it is impossible to cast the project. First, there is no one; secondly, there is no way. Of course, Firefly Pictures and Green Pictures are required to jointly produce, which serves the purpose of diverting attention.

And in this way, it can be regarded as a virtual weakening of the strength of Fox Films.

After all, according to the benign development of Mann Media, sooner or later, it will have to face the competition of the Big Six, so Fox, who has never exchanged interests, is obviously the enemy of the group.

Hi, Lyman, let me introduce to you, this is Ms. Lauren, the author of the novel, and this is her lawyer and agent Nordley.

Johnson was the first to introduce the two sides.

Hello, Lauren. Lyman greeted with his hand out.

Lauren Weisberg stood up nervously, shook hands with Lehmann, and saw the big director smiling in front of him, the whole person was so excited that he almost fainted.

In fact, she really realized at this moment that the joint action with Johnson in the past few days is really going to be made into a movie - my book is going to Hollywood.

Lehmann-Last, one of the most famous directors today, the pride of the French, and he actually took a fancy to my novel. That's what Lauren thinks.

And this one is not as simple as the surface, there may be excitement, but he still values ​​his own interests more.

You know, this lady has blocked Fox's casting. At that time, the director was not ready, but when the script of Prada was handed to Natalie Portman, she clearly expressed her disapproval, thinking that her The image is not enough to play self - the whole book is made from the author's perspective.

But in fact, Lauren herself is not good-looking, not to mention comparing with Natalie, maybe it is not this book, she will not even have the chance to enter Hollywood.

But it's also enough to reflect her nitpicking and possible trouble with production - Lehmann hates non-professional blind bb's interference in production.

After a few chats, Lyman politely stated that he liked the novel very much, but in fact, if it was not for the negotiation, he could not read it completely.

Because after collecting this person's information, Lyman can be considered to understand why Peter Hedges will withdraw from the adaptation and refuse to take over the project.

Combined with the description in the book, the heroine is innocent in her youth, but she is not arrogant after graduating from a famous school, full of sense of responsibility, and works hard - but Lauren herself has a very small mind.

It is true that she graduated from a famous school, and she did enter the most influential magazine vogue in the fashion circle as soon as she left the school.

But she was not as positive as the book portrayed. On the contrary, because she could not stand the pressure of the work intensity and the career itself, she took the initiative to jump to another magazine. Looking back, she felt disgusted by her boss - the devil in this book is In reality, Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of vogue, is smeared everywhere and has a rhythm.

Let Lehman say it, it's enough to complain about the boss behind his back, and he also wrote a novel about Mary Sue's bloody plot, selling other people's privacy to vent his anger, adding how silly and sweet he is everywhere, alluding to his boss, consumption The boss is a tyrant.

In addition to disgusting the other party, the real purpose is to make money accidentally, what is the deeper purpose?

Whether it is in the East or the West, this kind of backhanding and profiting from the privacy of others will not make people feel good.

After learning everything, Lyman was also defeated by Lauren's shamelessness. No wonder you look down on Natalie. It turns out that you are an unclean person.

But things have come this far, and Lyman just wants to get rid of this stuff quickly and shoot the original version, so that Anna Wintour's character becomes a career-type strong woman, that is, a queen, not a person who can't A devil who tolerates people and treats his subordinates harshly.

Fortunately, the screenwriters and directors of the original film still have IQs. If the characters in the book are set up as they are, and the author's personal goods and evil thoughts are mixed everywhere, it is estimated that this film will not be so popular.

Back to the topic, after Lyman indicated that he would fulfill the contract and make a movie, Lauren was obviously more convinced.

Especially after comparing Fox's procrastination and perfunctory.

But obviously, her agent is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and immediately began to strive for better conditions for her employer.

Everyone, in order to ensure the interests of Ms. Lauren, I have already told Mr. Johnson that the copyright proceeds must have a share of the original author, and it is impossible to sell it.

Lehman smiled and said, Of course, since it's a partnership, I naturally won't embezzle the author's part.

Lauren chimed in: Can I be on camera? Fox promised me a faceless role.

Lyman smiled and said, Do you have to show your face? It's actually unnecessary.

No, it is necessary, I have never been involved in filmmaking. Lauren said firmly: I can not pay.

Oh, is this a matter of pay?

You are an incompetent newcomer, and you will die if you give thousands of dollars, but after knowing what this guy is like, Lehman doesn't want to give her the right to participate - just to satisfy a little vanity, it may affect tens of millions of dollars project, who do you think you are? Tom Cruise wouldn't dare to give a character casually, okay?

Let's talk about it. Lyman frowned slightly and said perfunctorily.

The agent Nordley took out the first draft of the contract and continued: Then, there are still some details to discuss, such as the selection of the role to be confirmed by Ms. Lauren, and...

Is this what you mean by yourself? Lyman still had a smile on his face, but he was obviously impatient.

What the heck, you are obviously a writer of Mary Sue novels, why do you want to interfere in film and television production so much?

Do you know how to write screenplays? Do you understand audience market analysis? Do you understand budgeting? Do you know what it means to give up?

You don't understand anything, you are a layman, but you want to have such a big say. It's no wonder that Director Peter is disgusted, and it's no wonder that Fox let it go.

This guy is really nosy!
