Chapter 300

On hearing what Murphy said, David Ellison didn't respond immediately. Instead, he raised his chin and fell into thinking.

He has a huge sum of money in his hand. It's really easy to get the money, but it doesn't mean that he can spend it without restriction. His father took out the money in the hope that he can start a career. If he invests recklessly, especially if he falls into a ridiculous investment trap, I'm afraid that he will lose not only the money, but also the trust from his father. I'm not sure he will even be a regular person Any good plan for Hollywood will be affected.

To do anything, the first step is the most difficult. David Ellison knows this very well and knows that he must take the first step well.

If you can invest in a film that is likely to make a profit and make a difference in the award season, it will surely make many people who laugh at him shut up and make his father look at him differently.

At present, among all the projects he can contact, Bill rosis, Murphy Stanton and the lost lover are the most reliable and most likely to succeed.

Murphy Stanton, in particular, has made some understanding before he came here. From entering Hollywood to becoming a director, he has directed five films, including fruit candy, electric saw, horror planet, crime city and death watch, which have not only achieved great success, but also achieved both box office and word-of-mouth success.

this is undoubtedly a very good first step.

"Murphy, bill." David Ellison pondered for a second and said, "I need time to think about it."

"I hope to hear your good news." Murphy knew that it was impossible to make a decision immediately, and said, "but as soon as possible, my project is progressing smoothly. It has been confirmed that AIA will be the completion guarantee, and the project will be officially approved soon. I can't wait too long."

"Three days." David Ellison said quickly, "I'll give you a definite answer in three days."

Murphy thought, "well, that's it."

David Ellison stands up, shakes hands with Murphy and bill rosis one by one, and leaves. Murphy and bill rosis send him out of the reception room.

Watching David Ellison turn into the elevator, Murphy turns and walks back to the meeting room. David Ellison is obviously thinking about his words. He doesn't refuse directly. Undoubtedly, there is a great possibility that he will agree.

It's worth waiting for a period of time to get an investment that doesn't participate in the film's revenue sharing but only calculates the loan interest.

Even, Murphy is considering whether it is possible to appropriately add a few scenes with airplanes in the film.

"A friend of mine got the news," bill rosis closed the door and followed. "David Ellison got a lot of money from his father, Larry Ellison. He dropped out of USC film school to start a career in Hollywood. I think he might agree." Uu1;

"it's the best money to get him." Murphy took a sip of cold coffee. "And don't give up contact with other people. We can't put hope on one person."

Bill rosis nodded. "I'll keep in touch with them."

"Now the work is going smoothly, and the team will soon sign a work contract." Murphy put down the empty coffee cup, "I plan to officially set up the project in October and start shooting around the new year of 2005."

"There should be no problem." Bill rosis thought for a moment and asked, "if the actors want to make an impact on the award season, their acting skills must be guaranteed, and this time the heroine is very complicated, and Jessica Alba is not suitable."

"I didn't want her to play Amy either." If Murphy's head goes wrong, she will think about Jessica Alba. "I'm going to let James Franco be the leading actor, and his schedule is appropriate, but now it's not completely sure. Jim is reading the script, and I need him to try on his make-up."

He stood up and walked around. "I need an actress with a very strong aura to be the heroine. It's better to be a famous actor with guaranteed acting skills, and it's better not to be a newcomer, unless the audition effect is excellent."

"Any specific requirements?" asked Bill rosis.

He needs to consider the candidates, and then contact the other party. If there is no specific requirement, it must be very hard to do.

"Be good at acting." This is a prerequisite, Murphy also has a requirement for appearance, "height must be more than five feet seven inches, to have a delicate and noble appearance and ethereal unique voice."

Hearing this, Bill rosis frowned slightly. Hollywood actresses are not very good in appearance. If they are too good in appearance, even if their acting skills are not bad, they will be ranked among the vases by the Academy's old men.

Murphy walked up to the French window, walked up and down a few steps, and said, "after the project was approved, you invited some people to audition on my behalf."

After some deliberation, he said, "Nicole Kidman, Charlize Theron, Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway and Jessica chastan."

Apart from Jessica chastan and Anne Hathaway, all the other actresses are famous in the circle.

"Three Oscar winners" bill rosis shakes his head unconsciously.

"That's all I think about for a while." Murphy looked back and said, "if you have the right person, you can also send out an audition invitation." uu2;He had been in a relationship with kalafes before, and would try his best to hire a top actress who could hold the role.

Compared with actresses, Murphy is a little worried about James Franco. Ten years later, with the strength of James Franco as a super freak, he may not be inferior to any actresses. But now, Fulan is still a little young.

But Murphy chose to believe him, and in the future films, the hero should look weaker than the heroine, so as to meet the needs of the role setting and plot.

After explaining some other things, Murphy left the Death Star building where CAA was, went to 20th century fox in Century City, and met kalafes.

"It seems that everything is going well."

Murphy ignored karafes's words from behind her desk. She found a glass for herself, took a glass of water for herself, sat down on the chair in front of her desk, and said, "OK, just wait for the news from 20th century fox."

Karafis showed his head from the back of the computer, "the matter of capital has something to look forward to"

"today I met a rich second generation eager to enter Hollywood." Murphy cocked his legs, said the specific investment conditions, and then said, "he wants to succeed as quickly as possible, and get the recognition of his elders. I should have talked him into it."

"Who is it?" kalafes wondered.

"David Ellison." Seeing carrafes' puzzled face, Murphy explained, "the son of Larry Ellison, the founder of Oracle."

"It's really a super rich second generation." Carafes nodded. "Fifteen million dollars should be nothing to him. It's not a problem for them to exchange such a sum of money with a sum of interest for the reputation of a very likely successful investment."

Murphy asked casually, "you've dealt with people like this"

David Ellison is one of the top rich second generation in the world.

"Rupert Murdoch's youngest son and I used to be classmates." Kalafes shrugged. "I've seen them pay money we can't imagine for the first step."

"I wish David Ellison would do the same." In this respect, no one can guarantee, Murphy then changed the topic, "I heard bill say that twentieth century fox can buy film at a relatively low price"

kalafes nodded, "fox is one of Kodak's biggest customers."

"Buy me some." Murphy thought, "no less than 1000 discs. I'm going to use film this time."

"How to change the film?" carafes didn't quite understand. "Digital technology is the trend of the future."

"Don't forget, we're not just targeting the market." Murphy reminded carafes, "there's also the awards season. Academy Awards, film film will have a congenital advantage, several large awards above, the judges are not very popular with digital technology

"Well," kalafes understood, "it seems so."

As a matter of fact, apart from the Golden Globe Awards and the Film Critics Association Awards, which boast themselves as the wind vane of the Oscars, the most important trade union awards and the Oscars are all determined by a group of aging old men.

It's a general rule that people will naturally be conservative and nostalgic when they are old. Those judges who have been shooting and watching film movies are full of feelings for film movies. In addition, with the rapid development of digital technology, it seems that film technology will be kicked into the pile of history at any time. They will certainly not see the data technology flourishing after the new century It can also be said that film is an open secret.

Let alone now, even in the years to come, there are very few digital films that have won the most important award nominations. More than 90% of them are film films.

If you want to make a difference in the award season, at least get a few nominations of heavyweight awards, Murphy must not let the film appear huge defects in the first day.

Just like filming with film, Murphy's preparations were completed one by one, and David Ellison replied in two days. His sky Film Foundation invested $15 million in the lost lover.

To be exact, it is a loan of 15 million dollars to the lost lover at a slightly higher interest rate than the bank.

At the same time, as part of the reward and agreement, Murphy also agreed to let David Ellison be one of the producers, but he doesn't have much real power compared with carafes.

Everything is ready. After entering October, the disappeared lover officially set up the project. It's not finished yet. WeChat campus Belle, the real beauty of the children. Please take a look at WeChat official account. Look at beauty beauty Island search einvao123, hold 3 seconds to copy
