Chapter 857： Can you imagine

Eric was really curious, and asked the girl: "How do you bring her over?"

Drew smiled and said: "Ricker was crazy at the moment. I used to come to you. Until the beginning of this year, we are still looking for candidates for the beginning. After the box office broke out, "Titanic" broke out. I called Rachel, she was very interested, and then she was sure."

Eric also remembered the funny story of Carolyn's once said that Rachel Vichy, such a girl who likes to open a large displacement Jaguar king, will never be as beautiful as a girl.

Suddenly remembered something, Eric said again: "Ritchell agreed, her agent must be mad?"

Rachel had just promoted the first-line actress with Titanic. He hadn’t had time to go further. He suddenly ran a guest horror movie, not to mention the price problem. The slight contrast in this image may affect the popularity. .

"Yeah, they are all mad, and even Kapoor calls me, so I don't want to mess around."

"Is the result still taken?"

"Well, Rachel is also very angry. She said that she didn't want to be a puppet at the mercy of the agent, and then she took it."

Eric smiled and didn't care too much.

This is just a wayward guest appearance. The "Screaming 2" crew will certainly not overturn Rachel's image. Apart from a gimmick, the possibility of any negative impact will not be too great.

A few simple things to talk about, Eric turned to Madonna sitting next to him, the other party is a guest after all, can not seem too cold: "Maggie, you, what are you doing recently?"

Madonna leaned back on the single sofa and held the coffee cup. He seemed to listen to the conversation between Eric and Drew with great interest. He replied: "I am, I am very leisurely, so, Irene Ke, do you think Fireflies have a movie that suits me?"

Madonna is definitely one of the favorite people in the singer's circle to join in Hollywood. Not only has it been defeated in battles, but even in the rotten films that even the cinemas can't enter, it is often smashed by Hollywood filmmakers.

Last year's "Mrs. Belon" can be said to be the best movie of Madonna. At the time, the project was almost in the hands of Fireflies. Just considering the quality of Madonna's previous works, the production department rejected the budget of the main team of $55 million. In the end, I failed to reach a cooperation. Later, it also proved the correctness of this decision. Although Mrs. Belon had won both the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar, its North American box office was only 50 million. The Warner Bros. who took over the project still lost a small amount. .

Eric remembered the series of golden plums on Madonna, and immediately shook his head in a bit of awkwardness: "I think it's better to focus on singing."

"Eric, you can be really hurtful," Madonna squinted at Eric. The tone was not really angry. She seemed arrogant and even narcissistic in the eyes of outsiders, but it was definitely not true. The kind of person who has no self-knowledge.

After chatting for a while, Madonna really mentioned the thing of writing songs.

Eric got up and said: "In fact, I wrote it when I was in New York. Come with me."

Madonna’s expression stood up with excitement at once, but the girl didn’t follow her. She waved at Eric. The whole person lazily squatted on the sofa and picked up the remote control to open the wall-mounted TV not far away.

Eric took Madonna to the door of the lower study, hesitating, remembering that there was nothing in the study board that needed to be kept secret, which opened the door.

Followed by Eric and walked up the stairs to the study, Madonna, like many visitors who came in for the first time, was amazed at the huge tablet that occupies the entire wall.

At this time, a lot of sheets of Iron Man's armor drawings were attached to the board with magnets, along with some notes written by Eric.

Madonna couldn't help but walk to the front of the board and browse through the iron man drawings that have been color-rendered with metal texture. I would like to admire: "These are all Iron Man, it's so cool."

Iron Man's comic image is actually very rough, so even those who often read comics, at this time see these realistic drawings, will inevitably give birth to a sense of surprise.

Eric walked over to Madonna, looking at the drawings stuck on the tablet, and nodded, "Yeah, when the film is made, the effect will be even cooler."

"I really look forward to seeing this in the movie, Eric, will you be the director himself this time?"

"No, but I will be responsible for the production."

Madonna browsed more than a dozen drawings with great interest, and curiously asked Dong to ask the West, and then came to the piano in the corner with Eric.

Eric sat down on the chair and handed over the written scores and lyrics: "Hey, look at it first."

Madonna didn't sit down next to it, took the folder that Eric handed over, and leaned against the piano and couldn't wait to open it.

""hen-e-e-alive", look at the name is a bit of rock and roll taste," just look at the name of the song, Madonna will subconsciously comment.

This was originally an electronic rock. Eric also listened to Madonna’s main lyrics, ray-o-light, which had a strong rock style. I remembered this song and took it out after a slight modification. . In the future, after the post-arrangement, the style of the whole song will definitely be more suitable for Madonna's new album, but these are not things that Eric needs to worry about. The most important thing in Madonna's hands is the professional team.

Nodded, Eric replied: "Yeah, connected with the "Brightness" that you are going to be the main character, is..."

"When we are alive, we are shining."

Madonna immediately picked it up, and there was a little more excitement in her expression. "This is really ambitious, but I like it."

However, watching the complete song, and sang it again, Madonna looked up straight to Eric and said: "Eric, this song is great, but it seems that you are not amazing in the past? ”

Eric doesn't mind Madonna's direct, spread hands, explains: "Maggie, this is the limit of your album's own style, I can't always make a round cookie in a square mold."

The album that Madonna is creating is completely different from the style of her previous pop music. It is full of strong electronic music elements, and combines classical, rock, bass and other styles. To speak white, it is actually an experimental mix and match. Album. When Eric listened to the sample that Madonna sent, it did not produce much feeling, and it was even more impossible to find amazing works of similar style from memory.

To put it bluntly, Eric feels that the entire album is quite mediocre.

However, he just remembers that the album "Glorious" was once rated as one of the best albums in Madonna's personal music career in the original time, which may be like a top Cantonese cuisine chef suddenly making a table of Sichuan cuisine is inevitable The reason why people are fresh.

Whether it's an actor or a singer, it's often a good idea to change the style suddenly after a long period of time.

Due to the sudden change of the previous style, Madonna actually did not expect any expectations for this album, but her original road has come to a dead end, and this has to be changed.

Listening to Eric said that Madonna thought he was not too optimistic about the album.

However, Madonna still asked with a hint of hope: "Eric, what do you think of this album?"

Eric laughed: "Do you want to hear the truth?"

Madonna gave him a white look: "Forget it, you can make me happy if you say something false."

"Well, no kidding," Eric said. "Although your album doesn't fit my personal taste at all, the chances of success are still great. Even, this may be your musical career. Another peak."

Madonna was excited and looked forward to picking her eyebrows: "Are you serious?"

"Of course," Eric nodded. "First of all, the popularity you have accumulated over the years is still very strong. This is the biggest foundation for the success of this album. Secondly, people are always full of freshness, this album happens to be I cater to the public's preference. Finally, plus the song I gave you, I think you will definitely not let such a publicity gimmick, right? So, I bet, this album is globally sold. At least 15 million can be reached. As for whether it can impact 20 million, it depends on your luck."

15 million, 20 million, really, these are very distant things for Madonna.

Her previous album with a global sales volume of over 10 million has been seven years ago. In recent years, the album sales have been only a few million, although such figures are still unpredictable for those second and third-line singers. But for her, it can only be described as failure.

If the words were just made by others, Madonna might just be happy as a compliment. But by Eric, she almost immediately believed a few points, so the whole person seemed a little excited. As an ambitious woman, she was never willing to be so quiet.

Excited, Madonna’s ‘nature’ was revealed, and he put his hands on Eric’s shoulders and began to be strong: “That, Eric, what do you want to bet?”

Eric took a swivel chair and moved backwards, avoiding the body that Madonna wanted to straddle on his lap and shook his head. "Stop, Maggie, I don't want to gamble anything."

"Then I will admit defeat," Madonna said, getting closer, and his hands slipping from Eric's shoulder to his chest, as if he wanted to unlock the button on his shirt.

Eric saw the words couldn't hold the leprechaun, reached for the other's two wrists, and the body retreated a little. Madonna's hands were restrained by Eric, and the body lost support and suddenly fell in front of Eric.

Leaving Madonna's hands, Eric held down the woman who was struggling to get up, pinched the well-maintained face, and the tone was very cold and disgusted: "In this case, you use your mouth, I can barely accept ""

Madonna looked up and saw Eric's condescending gaze, feeling the strength of the big hands on her cheeks. The humiliation in the other's words not only did not raise her anger, but she felt soft and almost trembled and whispered: " Oh, Eric Williams, you are a big ball."

......

After more than a month of busyness, the Titanic model originally located in Rosarito, Mexico, has been completely shipped back and built in Firefly Studios.

Because Cameron spent a lot of money to copy the Titanic's large amount of furniture, carpets, curtains and even tableware, it was very quick to re-arrange. At this time, the first class ballroom in the Titanic model has been renovated. The "Titanic" global box office broke through the $1.8 billion celebration feast in the banquet hall of the big ship.

The time is already in the evening, and the guests attending the celebration party are coming.

Eric and Cameron and Kasenberg are standing side by side on the lookout deck outside the big boat, which is where the captain Titanic once occupied.

The big ship is just east-west, facing Marian Del Bay, not far away, occupying a large area in the northeast corner of the studio, which is naturally the result of Cameron’s insistence, otherwise the hull must definitely follow the shadow of the studio as a whole. Rectangular pattern.

However, it is precisely this kind of persistence. At this time, it is the moment when the sky is burning over the sky. The vision of the far-sighted view is extremely magnificent. The three-meter wall of the cinema and the low-rise buildings in the outer area can’t block the deck. At a glance, you can see the dense yachts of Marina del Rey and the sparkling sea level further afield.

“Eric, look, I’m going to say that it’s the best way to build a vision,” Cameron said with a bit of enthusiasm, holding the railings and looking at the guests on the bow deck below that mimicked Jack and Rose’s classic poses. Road: "I also plan to build a boiler room in the exhibition area, it is best to copy the huge drive shaft, only need to invest another 2 million US dollars, you know, we also keep the original props. However, Jeffery hopes that the interior of the cabin can be converted into a warehouse. Oh, you can imagine, the Titanic turned into a warehouse."

Eric smiled and looked at Kasenberg, and said: "Jeffrey also hopes that this model can be used as much as possible. Jim, you have to know, if there is no practicality, maybe, After a few years, we had to tear down the model, which after all took up a large area."

Cameron saw that Eric did not face himself this time, so he retorted: "Isn't it enough for restaurants, banquet halls and souvenir shops?"

"These are of course enough, but the boiler room is not, Jim, people will not be interested in these."

Cameron is still reluctant, saying: "Before this film was released, many people also felt that people would not be interested in such a movie."

"..."

The two sides bargained a bit, and Eric finally promised that Cameron could build a small exhibition hall, but most of the bottom area would still be used as a storage warehouse in the studio.

After all, the huge hull of more than 270 meters is almost equivalent to the length of the four studios in the studio. If it is not used, it is really like Eric said that it will probably have to be dismantled in the future. (To be continued.)
