"... I think you can record the whole soundtrack, absolutely no problem! I'm thinking about inviting a singer to a guest show. Do you have any special recommendation? Jazz, I hope it's a jazz style singer. Maybe he works in a jazz bar. That's good. "
"I even have a good idea of your clothes. Ha ha, Justin and I passed by the upper east side that day, and then we saw a tailor's shop with hand-made suits. We discussed that you are very suitable for suits. In this movie, you can perfectly show your charm and feel like a gentry."
"I've made it for you. After the shooting of the last work, I watched the performances of several of the plays over and over again, and I still can't forget your eyes. I think maybe our shooting this time can converge and produce better results. "
Damien chazere talks about his ideas and ideas about "the city of love and music" endlessly and with dancing hands. His exultation and excitement can be felt from every corner of his face. He is ready to devote himself to the new work, and his enthusiasm and excitement are overflowing.
Lanli was a little envious, and he missed himself - and, watching Damien like this, he jumped with joy.
"What's the matter?" Damien could detect the temperature in Langley's eyes. He stopped and asked curiously.
Lan Li chuckled. "I just remember the meeting opposite the Sunset Tower Hotel. No matter at that time or now, you still keep this enthusiasm. I believe that as long as you open your mouth, there should be more than a few companies willing to take over this project; Haven't you made other considerations? "
"Why should I do other things?" Damien came back with a question mark. "At Sisyphus, you are willing to provide funds, listen to my ideas, and actively participate in the creation of works, not to mention you. Why should I make other choices?"
Indeed, after the pop drummer became famous, Damien undoubtedly became a Hollywood upstart. As Langley said, as long as Damien opens his mouth and is willing to take over Damien's new works, there are not a few film companies. Damien can "get the highest price" and win a bright future for himself.
But Damien didn't.
Damien not only didn't look for other film companies, but also kept waiting patiently. Even though Langley had a busy schedule and never asked about the preparation progress of "Elysia city", he still waited silently, ignoring the invitation of those film companies and concentrating on the film.
It's a special job.
Perhaps, it has something to do with Damien's experience of looking for "pop drummer" investors like a headless fly.
Damien's rhetorical question made Langley smile, nodded in agreement, and then took the initiative in the conversation, "Sisyphus is willing to make this work, have you discussed it with the company? How much does it cost? "
"I'm not sure for the moment, but my estimate is 30 million." Damien is a little shy, because the production cost is ten times higher than that of "pop drummer", and his eyes slightly Dodge, "mainly the special effects, I hope to present the golden age of Los Angeles like 'midnight Paris', but it happens in the current Los Angeles, so the cost may be..."
"Oh. No problem. " "I'll tell them that there's no problem with the budget. After all, I'll get a big check soon."
This is about "Jurassic world.".
Because the film is still being released, and the large film companies need to go through the process to settle the film payment, the film payment of lanli has not yet arrived. But as Langley said, judging from the current box office trend, we can now ensure that it is a big check.
Damien was also amused by the jokes that Langley had come up with.
"Damien, you should know how much I'm looking forward to this work. At the beginning, after the shooting of" pop drummer ", you mentioned the outline of this project to me, and I expressed my positive attitude; But unfortunately, I can't get involved in this project. "
When lanli's words were only half finished, Damien was in a hurry. He couldn't hide his anxiety. "But... Haven't we already agreed?"
"Damien." Langley tried to explain.
But Damien was really scared. He had nowhere to put his hands. He didn't even know what to do. "I'm serious, lanli. This is a character that is completely tailored for you. You know what? Sebastian, the name comes from your middle name, as well as piano and jazz, all of which are based on your settings. Even the final 'Casablanca' ending is written by imitating your image in my mind.... "
"Damien, I believe in everything you say. It's not your problem, it's mine." Lanli's tone was still mild, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, but obviously Damien didn't believe it. His eyes were full of despair and heartbreak, just like the poodle abandoned by lanli. His wet eyes were clearly full of sadness, which made lanli cry and smile. He had no choice but to raise a smile.
Originally, lanli didn't intend to explain to Damien, because it's not his style. He would share his private affairs with others. But now, lanli calms down. "Damien, after the shooting of 'Grand Theft one', I fell into a period of low ebb."
Damien was slightly stunned.
"I don't like acting, and I'm not used to acting. Once acting could be very pure, just me and my role, but now my life is... Complicated." Langley did not further explain, but a "complex", but contains too much, which makes Damien gradually quiet down.
Although Damien didn't reach the height of Langley, he could also feel the "noise" -- after the Oscar, his life with Justin hewitz became noisy, and the ghosts and goblins began to approach him. He didn't like the feeling of chaos.
"I had hoped to have a rest for half a year or a year to really keep myself away from all the distractions, clear my mind, and then rethink my future." Speaking of this, lenley cast a glance at Damien. "So, I just felt your enthusiasm. I envy it."
A word of "admiration" hides a little loneliness and loss. Even without too much explanation, it makes Damien feel the same.
"I'm not sure what I'm in now. This TV series is an accident, Andy..." Langley was silent and thought about it seriously for a moment. "Andy hopes I can cheer up and find my passion again. Even if I can't go back to the past, I can at least enjoy the performance again. Andy and David have convinced me that I am trying to revive the source of enthusiasm through a long running in process
"I... I've recovered a little now, but I'm not sure how much time it will take, maybe tomorrow, maybe next year, I don't know." Lan Li said sincerely, "but I don't want you to delay for me..."
"I don't mind." Damien said bluntly, "Langley, I'm serious. I don't mind. If we have to wait for a year, then we have to wait for a year."
"But Sisyphus can't wait a year." Lanli made a joke again, but Damien didn't smile, which made lanli smile softly. "Damien, I believe you are serious. I also believe that Sebastian's role is really made for me, but I sincerely hope to see this work as soon as possible. You should continue to follow the original pace and miss me, Hollywood still has a lot of good actors. "
Damien's eyes showed despair. Although he could understand Langley, the disappointment was still hard to hide. He hugged his head in chagrin.
"Ha, Damien, it's a great honor for me to know that you are an irreplaceable actor, not... Not one of the countless actors in Hollywood. That's the best affirmation of actors." Blue show showed a big smile.
Damien immediately looked up. "Of course, you are the best. You are irreplaceable. Lenley, believe me, no actor can take your place. "
"Indeed, that's the truth." Lanli also rarely shows off once, but Damien is still serious. Lanli can only reluctantly continue to say, "choosing other actors is not to replace my position, but to seek different positioning, so as to make the role of Sebastian a new image."
Lenley doesn't want Ryan to think he's a substitute, and he doesn't think he's a substitute.
"Damien, listen to me carefully. I think Ryan Gosling is a very suitable choice. His melancholy and natural style can give Sebastian different characteristics; And, believe me, on the road of actor's dream, Ryan is more difficult than me. I can be regarded as a lucky one. " With that, Lan Li began to laugh. The advantage of being a man of two generations is the key point that Ryan can't match.
"Do you know? Ryan was interrupted by a sandwich takeout during an audition, and his performance couldn't go on at all, just like a fool Lanli tells the anecdote of Ryan's chatting, "Ryan's biggest dream was to successfully complete an audition without interruption."
It's not even a successful audition, it's a successful audition.
Damien's attention was drawn and slightly lost.
"Ryan and I are both dreamers. I'm more persistent, and Ryan is more bumpy. I think Ryan can interpret different Sebastian. From a certain point of view, Ryan may be more suitable than me." Lanli's words opened the door to another world for Damien.
Sebastian chose to compromise in the face of reality, and even was forced to give up his dream.
It's Ryan's pain, but it's not Langley's.
As Langley said, he and Ryan are two different actors, and their interpretation of Sebastian will be two different roles. Perhaps, Ryan is more in line with Damien's perception and understanding of Sebastian.
