American fame and fortune

"I think Aniston can!"

At the regular meeting of the crew, director Danny Boyle agreed: "I discussed the heroine with screenwriter Bradt. The role itself does not require a particularly complicated performance, and Aniston's experience is enough to deal with it."

The director also likes to use experienced actors, which saves worry and effort on set. Who would take the trouble to teach new actors who have no leading experience.

Kelly considers more realistic questions: "What about the pay? She's not asking for $20 million, is she?"

Martin replied: "20 million+ is Aniston's salary for one season of Friends, and her salary in the movie is not so high."

Jessica was in charge of contacting CAA, and said, "I tried to ask, and their bottom line is around $5 million."

Kelly asked: "She starred in 'Desperate' at the box office, and it seemed to be doing okay."

Louise turned to look at Martin: "If Rachel's fame and charisma work properly, it will help the film."

Martin thought for a while and said, "In my opinion, let her go directly to the third round of auditions. This is what a star of her level should be treated. It depends on the audition results."

Boyle was the first to agree: "It's best that way."

Louise said, "Then deal with it like this."

The short meeting is over, and Martin is going to the studio to meet the action director Chad, who intends to borrow some of Bruce Lee's action routines in the action design of this film.

After the male protagonist takes the smart medicine, he doesn't need to learn fighting at all, as long as he uses the moves he has seen in movies.

Louise followed, walking with Martin on the sidewalk of Warner Studios.

Martin asked directly: "Is there something?"

Like a lover, Louise reached out to hold his arm: "You haven't given me the formula for a long time."

Martin randomly found an excuse: "I've been busy with work recently, so I don't have time to experiment with new recipes. Didn't I give you a notebook last time?"

"It's almost running out." Louise reminded, "Party, pick up girls, you have plenty of time."

What a thick-skinned Martin, not only was he not ashamed, but plausible: "It's all for work, I don't go to Leonardo's party, how can I invite Danny to be the director? I'm not busy with work, Pacific Pictures can do it so quickly To regain momentum?"

Louise smiled and shook her head: "Black will have an opinion."

Martin can take it easy: "Idol halo will always be shattered."

At the fork in the road, Louise was going to Warner Pictures and said, "Don't forget about the new recipe. I'm going to participate in the World Sommelier Conference during the New Year. The master must have a good work."

"I take the time to experiment with new recipes," says Martin.

The two separated from the intersection and went to different places.

Louise came all the way to the big conference room of Warner Pictures, and met Barry Meyer and Alan Horn, the current heads of Warner Bros.

Those in charge of today's meeting were also relevant leaders of DC Comics and Legendary Pictures, as well as Warner's gold medal producer Charles Rowan.

The latter knew Louise well, and asked, "Has Pacific Pictures recovered?"

Louise smiled: "I have Martin Davis, the treasure boy. His two projects, Eyes in the Mountain and Wanted Order, not only allow me to make up for the deficit of Alexander the Great, but also get a lot of money. The most important thing is Yes, investors have regained confidence in Pacific Pictures."

Barry Meyer next to him couldn't help admiring: "You have indeed developed a treasure from Atlanta. Starting from the Wax Museum last year, Martin Davis surprised me time and time again."

Louise is very clear that Warner Bros. is at the top of their industry chain, and Warner Bros. has benefited the most from all these projects.

Allen Horn asked: "How much longer do you think he'll be popular?"

These words seemed to be squeezed by a big man, and Louise didn't feel comfortable listening, and said specifically: "As far as I know, Coca-Cola wants to take the initiative to extend the endorsement contract with Martin and sponsor all the movies he starred in with suitable backgrounds. "

Group companies like Coca-Cola are powerless to change the status of the film industry, but resources are used on a single star, and the effect is not so great.

Alan Horn immediately changed his words: "Warner Pictures has always been very optimistic about Martin's future, and I hope his new films will continue to be successful."

Barry Meyer saw that everyone was here, and tapped his fingers on the table lightly: "Now we have a meeting. There is only one topic for today's meeting. British director Nolan submitted his idea for a sequel to the new Batman movie, with an expected investment of more than 1.5 million dollars." One hundred million U.S. dollars……"

Such a high investment, such a big risk, Warner Bros. is unwilling to bear alone.

Therefore, long-term partners such as Legendary Pictures and Pacific Pictures were invited by Warner to participate in the discussion meeting.

…………

Century City, in a business club.

Brad Pitt waited for Aniston's agent Steve, and complained: "She changed all the contact information, and she didn't tell me the address when she moved. I couldn't contact her even if I wanted to."

Steve knew very well that Aniston would be very upset if he found out that he came to see Pete, but the agent needed to be discreet, so he asked directly, "What are you looking for with Jen? You know she doesn't want to see you again."

Of course, Pitt would not tell an agent that he wanted to get back together, and said in a tone that was for Aniston's sake: "The response of "Derailed Chase" was mediocre, and I helped her find a new project, a biopic type, that can break through. prize!"

Steve attaches great importance to Aniston's career, and he is the last person who wants Aniston to lie down: "What project?"

Pete opened the bag and took out a large stack of materials to him: "Look, the biopic of Ms. Potter, the author of "Peter Rabbit."

What Steve saw at a glance was the name of the film company marked on it—Weinstein Films!

The words Aniston had emphasized were still in his ears.

Steve knows Peter and Weinstein very well, if he recommends it again, he will definitely seek death.

Even Aniston will ask CAA to change agents.

Steve didn't want to offend Pete, so he told the truth: "Jen refused to do any more cooperation with Weinstein." He didn't touch the script Pete brought at all: "I have something to do, I'm going first."

Pete could only put away the materials. When he went out, he passed by the newspaper shelf and suddenly saw the picture of Aniston.

He quickly took a copy, sat down in a nearby resting place and looked at it carefully.

"Aniston's new relationship? The man is suspected to be Martin Davis!"

Below the title is the picture, in which Aniston and Martin are talking passionately, and the safe distance between men and women has definitely been crossed between the two.

Of course, it may also be related to the shooting.

But Pete was too lazy to distinguish, and didn't want to distinguish. He touched his head unconsciously, feeling a little heavy in his head.

There is also a picture at the back, Martin and Aniston walk towards the gate of the villa together under the night, as if they are going to enter the same house.

The photos selected by the gossip media are very good, and it is easy for people to associate them.

Pete tossed the newspaper aside, only the name Martin Davis was on his mind!

"Fuck!" Pete could confirm, as Martin wrestled Julie from him.

This is not enough, but also to engage in Aniston!

How can people be so shameless?

Pete was covered in fire, he left the club, got in the car and asked the driver to go home first, and called the housekeeper on the way: "Come to my place right away, now!"

Go back to vent the fire first, and then think of a way!

Not far from here, in the offices of Weinstein Films.

It's rare for the Weinstein brothers to get together.

The younger brother Bob asked: "Miss Potter's project, have you confirmed the cast? Renee Zellweger called me and is very interested in this play."

"Let her wait first." Brother Harvey is the real decision maker: "I found a more suitable actor, with Aniston and Pitt playing the leading roles."

Although Bob is not actually involved in the film business, he has gained a lot of experience over the years, and he understands it as soon as he hears it: "Learn from Mr. and Mrs. Smith's publicity and hype to create heat for the film?"

Harvey is ambitious: "We are good at winning awards, coupled with publicity and hype, I am confident that the film will be profitable based on the North American box office alone."

Not many of Weinstein's films can make a profit just by relying on the box office, including Quentin's films, none of them are good at the box office.

The phone rang suddenly, but it was Pete's call.

Harvey connected and said a few words, his face was a little ugly, and he pressed the intercom on the desk, and the secretary quickly sent in several newspapers.

One of the newspapers officially disclosed that Martin Davis has teamed up with several producers and is preparing a movie based on the novel "Dark Field", and the heroine in it is very likely to be Aniston!

Harvey slapped the newspaper on the desk and cursed directly: "Bichi!"

Bob asked, "What happened? Was there an accident?"

Harvey roughly said: "Aniston refused to cooperate with us and chose Martin Davis' new project "Never Ending", intending to play the female lead in it."

Bob recalled, "I remember this Martin taking Craven's project? And Damon taking a role?"

"That's right, it's him." Harvey nodded slightly.

Bob said in the most accustomed way: "Find a way to get him down?"

But Harvey said: "If it was easy to do, I would have done him a long time ago, and will I stay until now?"

His tone was quite helpless: "Martin is now the spokesperson of Coca-Cola, and he has been involved in improper ways. Do you think those capital bosses will let it go? They don't need to do anything special, they just need to find an opportunity to put their fingers on our heads How do we bear it?"

"He has been cooperating with Pacific Pictures and Warner Bros. The former is okay. We can scold Warner Bros., but when it comes to their investment and distribution income, do you think they will treat us as if we don't exist?"

"Also, he is deeply entangled with local forces in Zuozhou!" Harvey thought of the female King Kong, and subconsciously clamped his legs: "If their interests are affected, it may be a life-and-death struggle."

Hearing this, Bob couldn't help but said, "What on earth is this man thinking? Thinking of himself as a turtle? He dragged so many shells to wrap himself up!"

Harvey shook his head: "So it's difficult to deal with, we either don't move, or we find the key..."
