"It's all over now, it must be the bum who took it, and he's going to fly to Florida or Hawaii, or Canada, Panama, Bermuda, and get away with it."

"Where's Lonnie?"

"He's going to kill me, Laura."

"You have to tell him."

"Come on, he doesn't believe a word."

"why?"

"Once I stole a box of cigarettes and he found out right away. He didn't believe anyone. This transaction is a test to see if I can trust it."

"How much money is in the bag?"

"100,000."

"what!"

"$100,000, one test."

"Oh, hell."

Audition room.

Simon listened attentively to Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves auditioning this dialogue, and made a stop gesture: "Okay, it's all right here."

Both stopped.

Simon waited for Keanu Reeves to stand up again and said, "So, Keanu, can you tell me why you are interested in this movie?"

"I think this is a very special movie," Keanu Reeves raised his head slightly, thought about it, and said, "A special mode, a special story, if you can participate, I believe this will be a very special time. experience.”

Simon smiled and said: "Then, you must also understand that this is an absolute heroine movie, and it will not have much effect on your career."

Keanu Reeves also smiled and said, "I want to try something interesting more than a career."

"Okay," Simon nodded and said: "The last question, the male lead's hair must not be longer than the female lead's hair, so if you want to participate in this movie, you need to cut your hair, is there a problem? ?"

Keanu Reeves shook his head: "No problem."

Simon said with satisfaction: "Then, thank you for coming over today, Keanu, we will inform you of the result as soon as possible."

When Keanu Reeves left, Sandra said, "Simon, you seem to be very interested in this actor."

Simon glanced at Sandra and asked with a smile, "Don't you know Keanu? He's also from wma."

Sandra rolled her eyes gently and said, "Wma has more than 3,000 customers, how could I know them all."

Simon nodded suddenly.

In my memory, Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves have been good friends since they worked together in "Speed ​​of Life", but they are still in a strange state. However, now that I think about it, it is not a coincidence that the two can cooperate. They both belong to wma. In the 1990s, the project packaging model should have been the mainstream operation model of several Hollywood brokerage companies.

Thinking of this, Simon glanced at Ron Macmillan on the other side: "Ron, what do you think of him?"

"This," Ron smiled and said, "Simon, this time it's up to you to judge for yourself."

Simon felt that Ron's expression was a little strange, and said, "What's wrong?"

Ron shrugged and said, "I happen to know Keanu's stepfather Paul Aaron, and Paul just called me this morning."

Simon was a little puzzled: "Paul Aaron?"

Ron explained: "He's a director, but most of the time, he's making TV movies for several major TV stations. We've worked together a few times and are fairly familiar."

All right.

Simon groaned slightly in his heart.

Doesn't it mean that Keanu Reeves almost starved to death when he experienced the most difficult time in Hollywood alone?

How in the blink of an eye became the second generation of Hollywood.

Shaking his head gently, Simon put aside these messy thoughts and simply relied on Keanu Reeves' performance just now to evaluate him,

This year's Keanu Reeves is just 22 years old. Although he has a beard, he can't hide his youthfulness. The whole person is far from the gloomy and cold temperament of many years later. Although he is too handsome to play a gangster A little bit, but nothing too wrong.

In fact, the first Hollywood movie "River's Edge" starred by Keanu Reeves in the original time and space played the role of a troubled teenager. In the following years, Keanu Reeves also tried the comedy route.

It was not until "The Matrix" that Keanu Reeves' screen image was finalized, and it was difficult to get rid of Neo's trench coat and Black Mirror savior.

After thinking about it for a moment, Simon quickly made up his mind.

After flipping through the rest of the information, there were still four copies left. Simon didn't stop directly, and signaled the staff to call the next auditioner to come in.

The day after the audition ended, the cast of "Lola Run" officially confirmed Keanu Reeves as the male lead.

As a rookie entering Hollywood, although he has some experience in participating in TV series, the remuneration offered by the crew for Keanu Reeves is still not high, only $2,000.

In addition to the male protagonist, in the following days, other roles in "Lola Run" were also quickly finalized.

On the other hand, "Butterfly Effect" also completed the casting of supporting roles and preliminary preparations. During this period, Simon also attended several auditions for this film and provided some suggestions for the selection of roles.

At the end of September, according to the

Cox signed the contract, Simon also retreated again and began to make final revisions to the script of "The Butterfly Effect".

In contrast, "Lola Run" does not have such a rigorous production process.

However, there is really no comparison between a low-cost production that costs $650,000 and a big production that costs $10 million.

Peter Sanders, Fox's vice president in charge of "The Butterfly Effect", learned that Simon was the screenwriter of "The Butterfly Effect" and was also taking care of "Lola Run", and even deliberately expressed his 'not doing business' to Simon. dissatisfied.

Both David Giller and Brian De Palma just offered Peter Sanders as a Buddha statue, and Simon didn't pay much attention to each other.

September 26.

Friday.

Today was the last day of script revision, and Simon rushed to Fox Studios early in the morning for a full day of meetings with creators like David Giller and Brian De Palma.

Simon didn't get home from get off work until five in the afternoon in a black Chevrolet SUV.

This is a car that Simon just bought recently. Compared with the boxy 'Santana' shape of sedans in this era, the same angular SUV barely meets Simon's aesthetics, and the price is not expensive. All kinds of taxes and fees are only more than 32,000 US dollars.

Simon couldn't come up with the money now, so he took three-year installments and paid a mortgage of less than $1,000 a month.

As soon as she returned to her residence in Montana, Simon received a call from Janet. She said directly that she would have dinner together at night. Simon invited her. She had already booked a restaurant, and she reluctantly said that Catherine would also come with her. .
