As a director from Mexico, Alessandro Gonzalez Inarrido has always worked hard in the independent film circle. Up to now, although he has only directed an independent small production of "Love Is a Bitch", but He was well received by film critics. When the film was released last year, many film critics gave his debut female work a high score of over nine.
This also made Alessandro Gonzalez Inarido full of confidence in his future and decided to continue on the road of literature and art, shooting and producing a more costly independent film.
His requirements are not high, only an investment of about 10 million US dollars is enough.
However, ideals are full and reality is cruel.
"Love is a bitch" despite being buzzed by film critics, it can't change the fact that the world's box office is only more than 5 million US dollars. Inarido took his new script and traveled all over Hollywood with the ability to vote for tens of millions of dollars. Companies, let alone no company is willing to invest, or even see the senior executives of those companies.
His script is not unappreciated, but when it comes to investment, people who have read the script immediately shook their heads. In these people's minds, such a script full of literary flavor is definitely not worth a $10 million investment.
Especially in Sony Columbia, 2∏, 10th Century Fox, and Warner Bros. Inarido suffered countless eyes. Only recently has he figured out why this is the case. These three companies have heavyweight superhero movies, and his The script is about the devastating blow of superhero characters to actors...
However, Inarito met a very like-minded person in Warner-the first generation of Batman Michael Keaton.
It was because of the other party's introduction and help that he knew that there was such a party in Malibu and got the invitation letter.
Inarito also learned about it. Not only were the top executives of several Hollywood film companies present at the party, but also big-name producers such as Charles Rowan, Jon Landau, and Catherine Kennedy. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for him to sell himself.
The question is, with so many celebrities attending the party, how can he attract the attention of those big names?
This radio dj-born young director is a character, and has been immersed in the independent film circle for many years. He is inevitably contaminated with a lot of literary and artistic atmosphere. In addition, he has been affected by the popular neurosis, autism, schizophrenia and other roles of the independent film circle. influences. He chose a special literary way, wanting to win everyone's attention at the party, and then promote his script by selling himself.
The fact is just as Inarido imagined, since entering the huge banquet hall of the eye-shaped villa, all those who saw him were dumbfounded, as if they had seen something incredible.
This director who is full of literary and artistic style really attracted the attention of a lot of people in an instant.
Inarido's long black hair curled slightly behind his head. I haven't washed it for many days. Not only is it shiny, but there are many sticks together, turning into strands.
In particular, in contrast to the formal dresses of other people in the banquet hall, Inarido wore worn-out denim clothes that were washed white. The trousers were as good as his directing career, and there were several holes in the trousers full of literary atmosphere.
Such a dress. In the banquet hall, there is definitely a crowd of people, it is difficult to not attract people.
but. Inarido knows very well that this is not enough. It does not fully highlight his personality and make himself unique. He has already planned how to make himself stand out from the vulgar group of Hollywood. Above people.
In Inarido's opinion. The representative of his personality is the literary and artistic atmosphere, and the literary and artistic atmosphere is the outstanding talent, and talent should be appreciated.
He went straight through the banquet hall and walked towards the place where the dining table was placed, anyone blocking his way or on either side. All of them concealed their noses and retreated, so Inari had a feeling of the king's arrival.
"How long has this person not taken a bath?"
"What's that smell? How could Duke invite such a person?"
All the discussions from both sides were automatically ignored by Inarido. He walked to the table and took a large tray, and put the roast lamb shank, tender veal steak, and cheesecake on the tray one by one. , Even deliberately took the largest Alaskan king crab......
Carrying food and drinks, Inarido found a table closest to the crowd. After sitting down, he began to eat and drink. His eating and drinking sounds were very loud, especially the crisp clicking sound of prying open the king crab shell, which attracted the surroundings. People are eyeing.
Inarido didn't notice it. In what he thought was the most literary style, the most distinctive way, sitting here eating Hesai...
Emma is the steward of the Duke’s Manor. Although the party is handed over to a special company, she personally supervises the internal coordination.
As soon as Inarido walked in, she noticed, and then kept staring at him until the other person sat at the table and ate and drank.
Wearing such clothes and appearing in public with such behavior, no one can say anything. After all, this is personal freedom, but it is a great disrespect for the host to go to another person’s house to be a guest or to participate in such a high-end party. !
Disrespectful, lack of education...
This is the first impression Inarido made to Emma. Not to mention that this is a formal birthday party. Even if it is the most sought-after party, the other party is also very rude.
The other person may have a problem with his head, he may be a dangerous person...
This is what Emma thought about next. After all, as long as people with normal heads, who would do such outrageous behavior?
The sound of the man breaking the legs of the Alaska king crab even reached Emma's ears, and she gradually became convinced that the other party's spirit should be abnormal.
Emma raised the skirt corner of the black dress, turned around and walked towards the place where Tina Fei was. It is said that there is a circle in Hollywood that always focuses on making neurotic movies. Many directors and actors who enter the play sometimes also Make yourself nervous, maybe this is one of them.
She wants to ask Tina Fei, so as not to make a mistake, what if the other party is a guest invited by Duke, who happens to be an experiential actor in a neurotic role?
"Did you see that person?" She walked to Tina Fei and asked in a low voice.
Tina Fei nodded, "I have been paying attention to him for a long time."
"Is this an invited guest?" Emma asked again.
Tina Fei shook her head and said very confirmingly, "No, do you think the guests disrespect the host and themselves so much?"
This behavior is not only rude to the owner, but also disrespectful to oneself.
Emma looked back, "He may be a factor of instability."
Tina Fei glanced at Duke who was still talking to Jobs, and then made a decision, "Let Charlie and Brue in and take him out quietly."
She understands Duke's habits, this behavior is absolutely unbearable by her boss.
Inarido threw away the crab legs, took a big sip from the wine glass, picked up the napkin casually, wiped it back and forth several times on his mouth, and threw it in the tray, unabashedly burped, and was about to stand. When he got up, looking for the right person to promote himself and the script from the eyes of him, two white men in black formal dresses walked over.
The two stood behind him, one on the left and the other, and the older one smiled and said, "This gentleman, Miss Tina Fei wants to talk to you."
Hearing the name Tina Fei, Inarido's eyes lit up. The other party was not well-known, but was an executive from the Duke's studio and Duke Rosenberg's deputy. What did she find herself doing?
Although the whole thought is very literary, Inarido would not think that the other party was attracted to him...
Turning his head for a moment, he couldn't help but think of a possibility. Could it be that his extraordinary behavior caused Duke Rosenberg's attention? The other party is not only the top director in the circle, but also a billionaire. The investment of 10 million US dollars is nothing at all?
Duke Rosenberg has an in-depth cooperation with Warner Bros., and he went to Warner to deliver the script. Maybe he has already seen the script...
Thinking of this, Inariduo nodded and stood up, and followed the two of them to the outside of the banquet hall. His heads were still turning. The technique of seeing through to the end by himself was a literary and artistic film technique that could alarm God and Satan. It's normal for people to appreciate it.
Just walking out of the banquet hall, Inarido suddenly found something unusual. Two people sandwiched him and walked toward the parking lot. They couldn't help asking, "Where are we going?"
"Sorry, sir."
As a professional bodyguard, Blue did not give the other party any opportunity, "Please leave here, your clothes and behavior are too rude."
"Do not……"
"Sir, please don't make a loud noise,"
Tina Fei stepped out from the shadows on the roadside, "Now I solemnly ask you to leave, and give you a piece of advice, suitable clothes and basic etiquette are both respect for the host and for yourself. "
Inarito turned a blind eye to it, but said to himself, "Miss, I have a script and project and I want to find director Rosenberg for investment..."
Hearing this, Tina Fei frowned slightly.
Before she could say anything, Inarido took another sentence, "I will use a one-shot method for this project!"
Originally, Tina Fei still hesitated a little bit. After hearing about such a literary film technique, he waved to Bru and Charlie and asked two bodyguards to **** the very artistic director away from the manor.
In the past, she and Duke discussed this approach to the end. Her boss lacked the slightest interest in this literary and artistic film approach.
Inarido drove out of the park manor and glanced back at the behemoth, with a bit of resentment in his eyes. He just wanted to show his personality, but the other party thought he was rude and kicked him out... (to be continued) to be continued..)
