Chapter 384： Talk to Taylor

Chapter 384 A heart-to-heart talk with Taylor

The meeting with Harvey lasted about half an hour. From the meeting to the parting, the atmosphere was better than Link imagined, which made him even more confused about Harvey's plans.

He could only tell Producer Bent to be more careful when calculating the cost of the film. He also mentioned that he and Harvey had a little trouble and the relationship was not as harmonious as it appeared.

Bente Producer expressed his understanding.

 After three days of statistics and consultation, the project budget for "Silver Linings Playbook" is US$22 million, which is nearly half less than the 40 million originally mentioned by Harvey. The two companies jointly produced it, each investing US$11 million.

Since this movie was discovered and dominated by Weinstein Pictures, Weinstein Pictures has the right to get an additional 5% share of the North American box office and overseas box office.

After discussing with Catherine, Bent Producer, Herrick Producer and others, Link had no objections. However, in order to share the risk, he took the initiative to contact David Ellison and asked him if he was interested in this project. ?

David Ellison read the script, thought it was good, and expressed great interest in it.

 Link and David Ellison discussed and split their 11 million investment share into two parts, with Palm Beach Pictures occupying 60% and Skydance 40%. Both parties will jointly invest, and the box office and risks will also be shared.

Since this part of the change is an internal transaction of Palm Beach Pictures and has nothing to do with Weinstein Pictures, no matter how many shares he splits his investment share into, it will not affect the operation of the entire project, so the cooperation was reached smoothly.

After finalizing "Silver Linings Playbook", Link has also completed a job and can peacefully work on the set to film movies and train boxing.

After coming to Los Angeles, he went to the Beverly Hills villa to visit Taylor many times. The first few times he was rejected, but he only met Taylor after Mrs. Andrea's persuasion.

Taylor didn’t give him a good look after meeting him. He often turned his back to him and said nothing.

Link didn’t care either. When he had time, he would chat with Taylor in the sunny yard and talk about his recent work.

He also mentioned that he had recently written a new song "Say Something", which he planned to put on his fourth album, and asked her if she wanted to listen to it.

Tyler snorted softly, looked down at the magazine, and ignored him.

Link smiled and sat on the balcony holding his guitar, playing and singing to himself.

This song was released by the band Big World in 2014. It became popular due to the attention of Queen Christina Aguilera. It has been on the top ten of the US Billboard, and has topped the list in the UK, Belgium, Canada and other countries.

is a very nice sad song, which was later covered in Chinese by singer Zhang Shaohan.

I am getting smaller and smaller in your world

Hearing Link's melancholy and sad singing, Taylor couldn't help but raise his head and look at him. His curved eyelashes blinked again and again, and his expression became more and more surprised. After the surprise, there was a bit of anger on his face, and his snow-white fists Holding each other tightly again.

Every song written by this **** is so soulful, and he seems to be a great love saint, but in fact, he cheats on his wife, has girlfriends everywhere, and is recognized by the world as a scumbag.

It would be an absolute waste to sing this song to him.

But he sang so well, so affectionately, devotedly, and contagiously.

Tyler heard helpless and powerless, as if he was facing a murderer but couldn't catch him and send him to prison.

Link sang it once, looked at Taylor and smiled: "How do you feel?"

"generally!"

Tyler continued to look down at the magazine.

“This song is suitable for male and female duets. I am not very expressive when singing it alone. Are you interested in us collaborating? The two of us will sing it, and the effect will definitely be great.”

“If you don’t come, don’t disturb me from reading.”

Taylor brushed his long hair around his ears and said.

Link shrugged his shoulders and didn't force it. He sat on the balcony filled with sunshine, put his feet on the wrought iron railing, and turned his head to look at Taylor, who had a rosy face and a voluptuous figure. She seemed to be more beautiful after being pregnant. Some.

"How have you been lately? It should be good, right? I heard from Selena that you guys party every day, hang out with a few little sisters, and go shopping. I heard that you went to the ranch for vacation last time, which is really enviable."

Link said.

Tyler blinked and ignored him.

"But I'm having a bad life. I'm in a mess both at work and in life. It seems that after I broke up with you, things took a turn for the worse. I'm like a train that has deviated from its original track. Racing wildly in the wilderness, not knowing where the road is or where the end point is. Link rested his arms and looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the Beverly Hills. Occasionally, a few birds flew by, and he suddenly felt a little tired.

Taylor glanced at him and saw his handsome side face, with melancholy and melancholy between his eyebrows. Her heart seemed to be pulled by something, itching and hurting. She took a deep breath, picked up the magazine and threw it at him. on the body.

"Don't say it to me if you feel bad. I'm not a trash can for negative emotions. Besides, didn't you choose this kind of life for yourself? You attend high-society parties every day, and the people you associate with are billionaires from all walks of life. Elite tycoon.

 And now that you are rich, you can raise women all over the world. You can have **** with whomever you want, and no one will care about you. Doesn’t this just suit your wishes? Everything is your choice. Why are you pouring bitter words on me here? "

Taylor sneered.

Link shook his head and looked at the sky and the ivy hanging down from the balcony on the second floor. The sunlight was dappled.

"Andrea said that you liked to eat desserts when you were a child. She was worried that you would get cavities and become a chubby girl, so she wouldn't let you. She would secretly eat them if you couldn't eat them. Later, you made money and realized the freedom of desserts. You eat as much as you want, but at this moment you suddenly don’t want to eat anymore.

I'm the same as you. I used to be under your control, and I always felt that the women outside were delicious and couldn't help but want to taste them. Now that no one is in charge and I have free snacks, I realize that everything is not as good as I imagined. But this time I We have deviated too far from the correct course and cannot look back. We can only close our eyes and rush forward blindly. "

Link pointed at the plane flying across the horizon, turned around and smiled, "But one thing is strange. No matter how bored and confused I am, every time I sit next to you, I feel like I'm back on the original track. , very relaxed and comfortable, isn’t it strange?”

Taylor blinked her blue eyes, flipped through the magazine and said, "You should tell Ivaca this kind of thing, she is your girlfriend."

Link said: "My biggest confusion about life comes from her. She is so smart that I don't understand her at all. I don't know what she is thinking, what she wants to do, how she feels about me, and whether she really likes me." Me? She's nice to me, but I'm not sure there's an element of love here.

And I once said that we come from different backgrounds, have very different living habits, and have very different thoughts and concepts. She likes to ask chefs to cook, but likes to cook herself. She likes to live in a luxury apartment hundreds of meters high. inside.

I like to keep my feet on the ground, put my feet in the beach, feel the temperature of the sand, and other things. These differences make me very uncomfortable with my current life, and I feel like I am floating in the air all day long. "

“You asked for it, no one forced you to be with her.”

Taylor said.

"It sounds like this, but during the time we were dating, she didn't do anything wrong. Everything was centered on me, like my partner and comrade in life and career. If I break up with her, I will be hurt more. A person, a good woman, okay, I am too greedy, this is still my problem. "

Link stood up and stretched, stood on the balcony and looked at the sky, the blue sea in the distance, and the bustling urban area of ​​Los Angeles.

Seeing the sun setting in the west, he could no longer disturb Taylor and Mrs. Andrea, so he took the initiative to say goodbye.

Looking at his car and villa, Taylor returned to the house and saw the guitar he had placed on the balcony. He was silent, plucked the strings with his delicate fingers, and sang softly the song he had just sung.

SaysomethingI'mgivinguponyou

Aren’t you going to keep me? I'm on a separate road from you

I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you

I'm sorry, I still can't stop your flowing eyes

Although, I have always been by your side

At this moment, I swallow my anger

But he said goodbye

While Taylor was singing, Mrs. Andrea came over with a stack of documents and stood at the door for a while. After seeing Taylor finish singing, she asked: "Is this a new song you wrote? It sounds very good."

“No, it was written by that **** Link.”

Tyler said angrily.

“Speak nicely, why are you scolding him?”

Mrs. Andrea persuaded.

"He deserves to be scolded. Even after we broke up, he still refuses to let me go. He comes to me every day to pretend to be a lover. He wants to use this method to continue to dominate me. Huh, don't let him come next time. I feel very angry when I see him now. bother."

Taylor smoothed his hair and went upstairs with his guitar.

Mrs. Andrea shook her head. She still felt that the two of them were the best match. Although Link was a little flirtatious, he was still young and was not hopeless. As long as he worked patiently, he might not be unable to gain a perfect relationship.

Suddenly she remembered the document in her hand and shouted to Taylor, "The document sent from Nashville Hospital requires your signature. Are you sure you want to do this?"

"yes!"

Taylor said firmly.
