Chapter 272： closed door diving

Of the ten major adult roles in "Deadly Identity", Evan Bell solved four of them with less than $50,000, which is definitely a qualitative leap in cost savings for the crew.

Joseph-Gordon-Levitt, Ryan-Gosling, and Nata-Lì-Bōterman, each of them only paid Evan-Bell $10,000 in a symbolic way, and Evan-Bell decided by himself. I won't discuss the remuneration for the time being. After all, he is a producer himself, and Studio Eleven is a production company. His remuneration is entirely by putting the money in his left pocket into his right pocket.

So, to be precise, these four actors only paid 30,000 US dollars for the 11th studio, which is not a little bit less than the originally expected 3 million US dollars. If you add James-Mangold's "fatal status" who is willing to cut prices, the budget will be much easier.

As for the choice of other actors, James Mangold and David Greenblatt are busy in Los Angeles, and Evan Bell finally has time to return to school.

The day after returning to Harvard, which happened to be Monday, Evan Bell first went to see Mueller-Lance. The eighth draft of the graduation thesis has been revised. Fortunately, this time, Muller-Lance finally nodded and passed. Next, Evan Bell only needs to confirm the format again, and then he can create a **** and prepare for graduation. At the same time, Muller-Lance will also submit this manuscript to the "Journal of Personal and Social Psychology", the core journal of psychology in the United States. As long as it is published, the manuscript fee is second, but even if Evan Bell's master's graduation requirements are met, this is the important thing.

Compared to Muller-Lance, Evan-Bell was scolded with blood when he met Richard-Wendy on Monday afternoon: "If the first bid hadn't been delayed for a month for some reason, you'd have to. You missed it! Do you understand the seriousness of the matter!" Richard Wendy is usually a mild-mannered child, but if he really gets angry, it will be absolutely terrifying. The old man was neither big nor small, but as long as he realized that Richard Wendy was really angry, all the students in the entire teaching building would even walk lightly.

Honest people don't usually get angry, and when they get angry, it is definitely a volcanic explosion, as is the case with Wendy. At this time, the volcano erupted.

"I don't care what kind of music or movie you make. Where's the design? Where's your design? Do you know the importance of this opportunity?" I didn't let Evan-Bell speak successfully. Later, Evan-Bell gave up and listened to his mentor roaring like a runaway dinosaur in the office, "The original bid should be in March, so your What about the blueprints? Your blueprints don’t even have a first draft. If you want to give up, tell me directly, don’t drag it around there…” Barabara…Evan-Bell didn’t dare to touch it at this time. Richard Wendy's anger can only be obediently sitting in his seat and listening.

According to the original plan..., the bidding for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center building will be held in late March, but later due to the huge clean-up project of the Twin Towers and some problems within the New York City government, the bidding will be postponed to mid-April . Evan Bell has been so busy this year, he is busy on and off, and if it weren't for the delay in the bid, he would have really missed it.

After being dizzy for about seven or eight minutes, Evan-Bell only heard Richard-Wendy's round eyes, "I ask you, how is your design progress now?" Evan-Bell Only then did Bell realize that Richard-Wendy had finished reprimanding, and quickly replied, "Actually, the first draft has been drawn, but then I overturned my design and decided to redraw it. The idea is now complete." Richard Wendy didn't answer Wen Yibel's words, he just stared at Evan Yibel, and after a while he said, "You haven't started writing the first draft of Xinyin yet, have you?" Evan Yibel hehe He smiled twice, "One third of the drawing. ... Still a little guilty. Evan Bell knew that Richard Wendy was optimistic about his own future, so he informed himself of the bidding meeting for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center. Evan-Bell also knew that this opportunity was rare. He also promised Richard-Wendy at the beginning, but unfortunately he could not complete it because of his busyness. Evan-Bell also knew that he was wrong. Of course, being busy is a reason, but Evan Bell knew that the reason was also an excuse, so he didn't have too many excuses.

Richard Wendy was enraged by Evan Bell's words, and he only drew a third of the drawing, but thinking about it, it's better than not even starting, so he feels a little more comfortable. After thinking about it carefully, Richard and Wendy also knew that his disciple wanted to be diligent, otherwise he would not have won his favor before graduating from his undergraduate degree.

This kind of thing had never happened before. Richard and Wendy knew that his disciples had a lot of success in music and movies, and it was very rare for him to remember the blueprints firmly. But he is an architectural designer, and he knows how important this opportunity to rebuild the World Trade Center is, so he is inevitably a little emotional.

Thinking about it again, since coming in until now, the disciple has never refuted a sophistry, and his attitude could not be more sincere.

Wendy also completely calmed down.

"Ten days, I'll give you ten days to drive out the design drawings." Richard Wendy's tone was still a little harsh, but he has basically returned to his usual gentleness. "But to ensure the quality, if there is no quality, I will tear up the drawings. "Richard Wendy looked at the smile on Evan Bell's face, and his heart softened. Thinking of the disciple's recent busy schedule, he still exhorted, "Pay attention to your body." The bidding meeting for the reconstruction design of the World Trade Center has been postponed. It was held on April 20th, and it was less than a month away from now. Evan-Bell finished drawing the design, and after two revisions, the time was up, and it was very urgent. The only thing that is fortunate is that this is modified on the basis of Evan-Bell's graduation project, and Evan-Bell already has a draft, so the speed of modification will not be too slow.

In any case, after saying goodbye to Richard Wendy, Evan Bell entered the retreat.

Fortunately, there are people preparing for the "Deadly Identity", and the Eleven Design also has the help of Frank James, but the publicity of "Hello, Cold World" makes Claire Deston feel powerless, because after Evan Bell retreated, The phone and email didn't reply, and even if I called Teddy Bell, I was directly rejected.

After devoting himself to the drawing of the design drawings, without being distracted by other affairs, Evan-Bell's progress suddenly accelerated.

Regarding the design proposal for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center, Evan-Bell intends to abandon the original idea of ​​the twin towers and build a main tower instead, and then build auxiliary buildings in several adjacent blocks.

In this way, first of all, it can create a **** to solve the wind tunnel problem that has plagued New York for many years because of the passage between the twin towers; secondly, it can also create a **** to avoid the memory of New York citizens for the twin towers - after all, even if another twin tower is built, it cannot replace the original one. The position of the Twin Towers in everyone's heart, and it will always remind everyone of the disaster of September 11: once again, it is also a fast way to meet the multi-functional building.

Of course, the most important thing is that Evan Bell's original graduation project was a building, and then there are auxiliary buildings next to it. Now only need to make changes on the original design drawings, no need to make thorough revisions, and then separate the surrounding buildings. Auxiliary buildings can be modified to create gods, which is also a good way to reduce the size of the project.

This time, Evan-Bell mainly made changes to the protective system and height of the building. After all, Evan-Bell is already very satisfied with the appearance of the building, which is also the crystallization of his four-year university creativity. The original graduation project was only 650 feet. Now Evan-Bell plans to build it to about 1,700 feet. It is not just a pursuit of height, but only a symbolic meaning is enough.

So, although Evan Bell only drew one-third of the design drawings, ten days were enough for him to revise the remaining two-thirds.

It's just that I don't know how many new design drawings are feasible. After all, considering the practicality of the protection system—especially after September 11, safety issues will definitely become the absolute focus of attention at the bidding meeting. This is the most important issue for Evan Bell to consider.

During Evan Bell's retreat, several major events happened in the entertainment industry. Among them, the news that "American Idol" entered the audition in July was undoubtedly the most shocking.

The slogan "I am the next American Idol" immediately elevates the idea of ​​the show. "American Idol" not only symbolizes the spirit of diligence and struggle in the United States, but also symbolizes the "American Dream" of everyone in the past century. It also symbolizes young people. The pursuit of dreams This simple slogan has a profound meaning, which has made the talent show suddenly rise on the North American continent.

The success of "Pop Idol" has made the world see the possibility of selecting rising stars in the talent show. The slogan of "American Idol" has all the teenagers who dream of stardom join the ranks.

The first season of "American Idol" in the previous life can only be regarded as simple. No matter from the number of applicants to the scale of the program, it was still in its infancy, and it was not until the second season of the talent show that the power of the talent show fully erupted. The present world inevitably conforms to the historical trajectory. After all, even if Apple's publicity is overwhelming, the majority of people are still holding a wait-and-see attitude. The show can make a **** and survive in the UK, but it will take time to test if it can take root in the United States. Therefore, it can be foreseen that the game in the first season is slightly deserted.

However, under the call of Eleven Studio and Evan Bell's reputation, the first season of "American Idol" still glowed with more vitality than its previous life, which is also considered an improvement.

Just a few days after the "American Idol" Evan Bell began to retreat, Warner Records followed the plan... Officially released the single "Better than Hallelujah", which opened the prelude to Evan Bell's second album . ! .
