Chapter 472： The best overseas science fiction film

This screenwriter named Mark Morik has entered Hollywood since the early 1970s. According to time calculations, he can be said to be a senior screenwriter. He has participated in the script writing of films such as Robocop and Lethal Weapon. , Although not qualified to sign in the screenwriter column, but it can be regarded as a small name in the industry.

Not only did he come up with an old script, he also found a few friends who had read the script back then. As for these "friends", they are complete strangers to Hollywood.

Is it really a crash?

Ryan doesn't think so. The other party has been a member of the Screenwriters Guild since the 1970s. If he really wrote a script like "Gladiator", how could he forget to file with the Screenwriters Guild?

Besides, he remembers clearly that in his previous life, the creative source of "Gladiator" was indeed that painting, but the person who came up with this idea was the production manager of DreamWorks, David Franzoni.

In the first two years, David Geffen was very interested in his novel of the same name. He once wanted to buy the film adaptation rights, and the recommender was David Franzoni.

Take out an old script, pull up a few friends, and then you can jump out and correct him for plagiarism?

Ryan believes that things will never be that simple.

After Mark Morik was interviewed by the TV station, some media began to hype.

"Ryan Jenkins is suspected of plagiarizing Hollywood veteran screenwriters and has yet to respond..."

"The "Gladiator" movie may be postponed, and once the plagiarism is confirmed, it may never even appear on the big screen."

"Genius will also copy? Ryan Jenkins inspiration has dried up..."

"In order to maintain the order of the industry, Mark Morik should prosecute the persons suspected of plagiarism, and Hollywood must put an end to such unhealthy practices in the future!"

In the mouth of these media, it seems that there is no need for verification. He pressed the plagiarized name firmly on Ryan's head.

If it was David Franzoni or Ridley Scott who jumped out and corrected him for plagiarism, Ryan might feel wrong, but who is Mark Morik? Please. What works have you **completed?

Most media still stand on a neutral stand. Before the results come out, you will not favor any side easily. Ryan also didn't use the relationship with the media, just watched the changes in the situation.

Some media reports seem to have inspired Mark Morik. He sued Ryan and Jenkins Pictures in the federal court in Cheyenne, Wyoming in mid-November. His lawyer asked the court to issue a preliminary injunction order prohibiting any film company from releasing the film before the lawsuit is over.

"Gladiator" has not yet entered the theater, it is in danger of being banned from showing.

"Don't bother with this lawsuit. Whether it's publicity or screening, everything will be implemented according to the original plan."

During this period of time, there was a lot of noise in the media, but Ryan hid in Jenkins Manor with peace of mind, learning about the development of the situation through the Internet and telephone. "Juris, the litigation matters can be handled by Lawyer Wilson."

The old lawyer at that time has retired and is succeeded by his son Mr. Wilson Jr. This younger lawyer is equally extraordinary and more enterprising. With Ryan's funding, Wilson Law Firm has developed into one of the best law firms in California.

Resting on Charlize's long legs, Ryan hung up the phone and threw it on the sofa below him. Turning his head, his entire face was buried in the flat belly of the South African diamond, and he took a deep breath.

Charlize, who was looking at the information, couldn't help lowering his head, pulled Ryan's face away, and pressed **** his lips.

"Could it be possible to win this lawsuit by relying on an old script and the testimony of a few inexplicable people?" She always started from Ryan's standpoint, and seemed aggrieved at the moment.

"They don't need to win." Ryan continued in a more comfortable position. "They just need to drag the lawsuit down so that "Gladiator" cannot be released or delayed."

"The question is what are they good for?" Charlize suddenly complained, "My dear, my legs are numb."

"Oh, sorry, Charlie." Ryan hurriedly sat up, took the beautiful diamond into his arms, and continued with the blond hair entwining her. "The movie cannot be released. It will definitely lose money, even if it is delayed. , Jenkins Pictures invested huge publicity expenses in advance, and it was in vain."

"Up to now, "Gladiator" has spent nearly 50 million US dollars in publicity expenses." He added, "Even for Jenkins Pictures, this is a huge sum of money."

"Seeing you are not in a hurry..." Charlize slipped away from Ryan's arms and slept on his lap. "Is there a way to deal with it?"

"This is just a small trouble." Ryan followed the two straight beautiful legs and touched upwards. "The real trouble is behind."

If there is an uproar in the media, the Academy of Algorithms will finally rule that this is not plagiarism, and it will definitely affect the judges of the Academy of Film to a certain extent, and will subconsciously ignore the film when voting.

This is also the reason why he dealt with it coldly. If the media that he had good relations with defended him, the two sides will have disputes between you and me. This topic will be completely detonated, and it will only be him who loses more than the gain.

Now, even TV stations and some media affected by Disney are still making a big fuss about this matter, but because of lack of response, they cannot make a bigger wave.

"So this is also a poor woman."

Charlize, who was lying down and flipping through the script, suddenly sighed, "If someone in the middle is willing to stretch out and pull her, Irene Warnos may not be on this path."

"Have you seen her picture?" Ryan motioned to her to turn to the end. After Charlize saw the picture, he reminded him, "If you are in this movie, you will become like this."

"Uh..." Charlize hesitated obviously, "It's only temporary, isn't it?"

"Okay, dear." Ryan pinched her towering nose comfortingly, "I will finish the script as soon as possible."

Now this diamond is his own woman, and certain untimely plots must be eliminated.

Grabbing the hand holding his nose, Charlize put it to his mouth, two rows of silver teeth gnawed a few times on it, leaving a shallow tooth mark, suddenly turned his head, and deliberately rubbed his delicate cheek. After rubbing a certain sensitive position, after feeling the obvious change, he suddenly stood up with a smile, and jumped into the distance without waiting for Ryan to make any response.

"and many more!"

Seeing Ryan who was about to catch up, she raised her index finger, "Honey, we should change our clothes. Don't forget to go to the premiere for a while."

"Charlie, there is no evening dress for you here." Ryan raised his eyebrows.

"I think since you called me over, you must be prepared, didn't you?"

When Charlize looked at the stairs leading to the second floor, Ryan went over and took her to the dressing room upstairs, "I have already ordered the evening gown."

When he went upstairs, seeing Charlize's gaze sweeping from the door of a bedroom, Ryan said, "You can choose any room."

"Then..." Charlize hesitated and pointed to the master bedroom on the second floor. "Is this okay?"

"Change to another room."

After taking a look at Ryan, Charlize understood whose room this was, nodded and said, "Is it okay to choose the third floor?"

She knew that Ryan's room was on the third floor.

The two went to attend the premiere of "Monsters Electric Company". The movie was specially selected to premiere on the weekend before Thanksgiving. Although the name and the role of the movie are full of monsters, in fact This is still a family movie.

After getting out of the RV, Ryan was not interested in staying on the red carpet, and ignored all the questions asked by the reporter, and walked directly into the Chandler Hall. Charlize was so careful that he could roughly guess his thoughts and held him. His arms followed closely, even if there were hundreds of female fans on both sides swearing and attacking, she still cleverly remained silent, just showing her most beautiful and elegant temperament in front of everyone.

"Don't care too much." Walking into the hall of the theater, Ryan patted her hand comfortingly, and laughed at herself, "There are not a few people who trust your **** scolding me."

"I never went to my house to protest so exaggerated." She complained just right, and then reminded, "Mr. Weinstein is here."

"Hello, Miss Theron."

Hearing a polite greeting from Harvey Weinstein who just greeted Ryan casually, Charlize said quickly, "Just call me Charlie."

"Okay, Charlie." Harvey Weinstein is an old fox, and he naturally knows what to say at this time. "Ryan is not wrong at all in describing you. Your beauty is like the most precious diamond from South Africa. ."

"Thank you, Harvey." Charlize covered his mouth and smiled lightly.

"Good job, Harvey."

When the big fat guy finished his greeting with Charlize, Ryan gave him a thumbs up, "How to operate a foreign language movie, no one in Hollywood is better than you."

"That's because the quality of the movie is guaranteed." Harvey Weinstein suddenly looked at the South African diamond and deliberately put on an exaggerated tone. "You know, Charlie, just seven or eight years ago, Ryan only used The film adaptation rights for a Chinese-language novel was obtained for 100,000 US dollars. Now this movie has not only won Palme d’Or, but also hopes to get more than 100 million US dollars in the box office."

"You mean "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", right?"

To stay by his side, Charlize knows that his horizons must be broadened. If he can't keep up, someone will take his place sooner or later. "It is said that many media are praising this as the best overseas science fiction film in recent years. "

Hearing the term sci-fi movie, Ryan's mouth trembled. In the eyes of North American media, kung fu movies are represented by Jack Chen or Jeter Lee, which violate the laws of physics and fly in the sky. The film I went to was a science fiction film similar to a superhero. ()
