Chapter 29

Two days later.

"Juno, it's an interesting movie. It's to my taste." Said Richard linklet, holding the script in his hand.

Smell speech, Zhu Ke not from the heart happy way: "you mean to say, accept our invitation."

"Yes, I did." Richard linklet smiles.

This is not a nobody.

He's not new to Hollywood.

As early as 1995, Richard linklet was crowned the best director of the 45th Berlin Film Festival. In the 21st century, he is known as the most successful independent filmmaker in the American film world.

He is a classic case of self-taught talent. He has no college background, is not an acting family, and is even more admirable.

Although his films are relatively small, such as "city ronin", "young frivolous", "Youth" and so on, Zhuke has never seen one.

But Zucker knows his coaching style.

He is the kind of young man who is especially good at focusing on rebellion. By using humor, vivid language, poetic lens and ethereal music, he shows people's feelings and thinking about love in the process of growing up, and gives them rare sympathy and understanding.

Juno, a campus comedy about underage women's unmarried pregnancies, is not exactly what Richard linklet is good at.

Of course, his director's pay is also relatively high. In order not to let him get involved in the box office share, Zhuke painstakingly paid $1.2 million for his director's pay. Well, he's worth the price.

In this regard, "fatal bend 1", "fruit candy" and "Juno" are all in the preparation period.

Instead of directing, Zucker chose to be the producer of the three films.

.......

A few days have passed.

Zhuke came to Wald pictures again, and talked about the idea of copycat popular movies with CEO victor.

But.

But Victor retorted: "boss, your idea is very good, but have you ever considered a problem?"

"What's the problem?" Zhuke is curious.

Isn't it good to make money?

"Boss, if you just want to make money through Wald film, there will be no problem in making fake films, and the result will be as good as you think. However, this move is bound to cause a huge blow to the company, that is, the loss of original ability and creativity! "

"In addition, the company will lose a large number of young people with ambition to develop in Hollywood. Under the last vicious cycle, Wald film will always be the bottom group of Hollywood companies. "

"What's more, even if we can make money, we will certainly offend a large number of people, especially big companies!"

With that, Viktor was as deep as water, and could not speak any more.

"Er..."

For a moment, Zhuke was dumb.

what the fuck!

I almost did such a stupid thing!

Making fake movies is disgusting to big companies. In this regard, Zhuke is not afraid at all. As long as he can make money, he doesn't care about the bottom line at all.

It's hard work!

After a few years, I'll be rich, but I don't know who is harder.

However, Victor is right. The company is not made up of one person. The aspiring young people in Hollywood are not willing to stay in a small company specializing in making fake films. There is no room for improvement at all! In this way, Wald film will lose the momentum to move forward and will always be the kind of film company at the bottom of Hollywood.

No talent, no shit!

On one point, Zucker is totally unacceptable.

"Well, Victor, I apologize."

Zucker sincerely apologized to victor, and expressed his gratitude for his reminder on the spot. He also said that he would not mention any fake movies in the future.

"Fake movies don't work, but I'm a passer-by! It's always OK to steal the movies they haven't made yet and take the most popular copyrights of Hollywood in the future. "

I have to say that Zucker is a chicken thief.

........

A few days later.

Zhuke put aside the trivia at hand and devoted himself to the preparation of the three films.

Among the three films, "fatal bend" needs to investigate the shooting location, and also needs to prepare a lot of killing props《 Juno is the most expensive film to shoot, and the director Richard Linklater is demanding. Now even the script has not been finalized.

Therefore, Zhuke's main work at present is fruit hard candy.

Today is the cast choice for the hard candy. Jack, CEO Victor, and director Zach Schneider form the casting director group to be responsible for today's casting.

And it's also the choice of actors and actresses.

"Introduce yourself." Said Victor, looking at a girl in front of him.

"Yes, sir."

The first little girl to interview the heroine was only 16 years old, but she was a little nervous, and her performance could be described as miserable. She was rejected by Zhu Ke on the spot.

The first interviewer, failed;

Then, more than a dozen young actors who interviewed the heroine were rejected.

"I'm sorry, I can't see any aura in you."

"You're a little older, too mature."

"Sorry, you don't meet our requirements."

"Oh, boy, you are too young. Will you come back in a few years?"

........

Continuous interview failure, can not help but let Zhuke three people, some upset.

"Fruit candy" tells the story of Little Red Riding Hood's fight against the abnormal wolf. There are too few actresses who should not be more than 16 years old, but also full of aura. " Zach Schneider sighed.

In fact, there are many actresses like this.

However, they all came out very early to shoot advertisements, TV dramas and movies. The price is too high, which does not conform to the concept of low cost of hard candy.

Zach was the first film director and had a high demand for the actors and actresses. Because once the film failed, he had to go back to shoot the song MV.

"Next!" Said Victor.

Next came a little girl, blonde and beautiful.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Jessica Alba. I'm 15 years old. I've played in many films, such as crazy summer camp, Venus uprising, and so on, and

However, before she finished, Victor interrupted: "we all have information about your resume."

"Why?"

Originally still feeling bored, Zhuke suddenly saw a familiar face and lost interest.

"Jessica Alba is the one who will play the invisible Susan in the magic four." Zhuke could not help but feel a movement in his heart.

For a moment, Zucker was looking forward to it.

But.

In her next performance, she let Zhuke down completely.

Haili, the heroine in hard candy, is a little girl who looks harmless and delicious. However, in the process of castrating the wolf, her simple appearance can make people feel chilly.

Obviously, Jessica Alba does not meet the requirements of a female role. She is a silly white sweet image, how to play high IQ Haley.

No!

No accidents!

You can't make money for juke, not even Audrey Hepburn!

........

At the beginning of the casting, although there were a lot of problems, but at the end of the day, we still got a satisfied candidate.

Heroine Haley: played by Scarlett Johnson;

Hero Jeff: played by mark rufaro.

"That's interesting."

Seeing the final list, Zucker couldn't help laughing.

And the strangeness of fate.

Scarlett Johnson, 13, is not the widow of Marvel black; Meanwhile, mark rufaro, who plays the leading actor Jeff, will also play the role of Hulk in the Avengers series.

The minister has not written a book at the starting point for a long time. Today, he learned that there is "investment recommendation" on the starting point app. The minister has the courage to ask for support. Thank you!
