Rebirth In Hollywood

Chapter 472 The best overseas sci-fi film

This screenwriter, Mark Morick, has been in Hollywood since the early 1970s. According to the time, he can be said to be a senior screenwriter. He has participated in the scriptwriting of films such as "Robocop" and "Lethal Weapon". , Although he is not qualified to be signed in the screenwriter column, he is considered a little famous in the industry. watermark ad test watermark ad test

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

Did it really hit the car?

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

Besides, he remembered very clearly that in a previous life, the inspiration for "Gladiator" was indeed the painting, but the person who came up with the idea was David Franzoni, the production manager of DreamWorks.

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

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

Ryan believes that things will never be so simple.

From Mark? Morick accepted a TV interview, some media have started to hype.

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

"The 'Gladiator' movie may be delayed, and once plagiarism is determined, it may never even make it to the big screen."

"Genius can also plagiarize? Ryan Jenkins has exhausted his inspiration..."

"In order to maintain the order of the industry, Mark Morik should sue those suspected of plagiarism, and Hollywood must put an end to this unhealthy trend in the future!"

In the mouths of these media, it seems that even verification is not needed. Put the name of plagiarism firmly on Ryan's head.

If it was David Franzoni or Ridley Scott who jumped out and pointed him out for plagiarism, Ryan might feel wronged, but who is Mark Morik? please. What work have you done?

Most of the media are still on a neutral stance. It is not easy to favor either side until the results come out. Ryan also did not use the relationship in the media, just wait and see how things change.

some media reports,

Appears to have inspired Mark Morick, who sued Ryan and Jenkins in federal court in Cheyenne, Wyoming, in mid-November. His lawyers are asking the court to issue a preliminary injunction barring any studio from releasing the film until the lawsuit is over.

"Gladiator" is in danger of being banned before it hits theaters.

"Don't pay attention to this lawsuit, whether it is publicity or release, everything will be implemented according to the original plan."

During this time, there was a lot of uproar in the media, but Ryan hid in the Jenkins manor with peace of mind, and kept abreast of the development of the situation through the Internet and telephone. "Juris, the litigation matters, just leave it to Wilson's lawyer."

The old lawyer had retired, and his son, Mr. Wilson Jr., took over. The younger lawyer is equally astute and more enterprising, and with Ryan's funding, has grown Wilson LLP into one of California's preeminent law firms.

Pillowing on Charlize's long legs, Ryan hung up the phone, threw it onto the sofa under him, turned his head, buried his entire face in the flat belly of the South African diamond, and took a deep breath.

Charlize, who was looking at the documents, couldn't help lowering his head, turned over Ryan's face, and pressed hard on his lips.

"Could it be possible to win this lawsuit with an old script and the testimony of a few inexplicable people?" She was always taking Ryan's position, and she seemed indignant at the moment.

"They don't need to win," Ryan continued, in a more comfortable position. "They just need to drag this lawsuit down so that Gladiator doesn't come out or comes out later."

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

"Oh, sorry, Charlie." Ryan sat up quickly, took the diamond into his arms, wrapped around her blonde hair and continued, "If the movie can't be released, it will definitely lose money, even if it is delayed. , the huge publicity expenses invested by Jenkins Films in the early stage have been lost."

"Gladiator has spent close to $50 million on promotions so far," he added. "Even for Jenkins, that's a lot of money."

"Look, you're not in a hurry..." Charlize slipped down from Ryan's arms and put her pillow on his lap, "Is there a way to deal with it?"

"It's just a little trouble." Ryan touched the two straight legs up, "the real trouble is behind."

If there is a lot of uproar in the media, even if the court finally rules that this is not plagiarism, it will definitely have a certain impact on the judges of the film school, and they will subconsciously ignore this film when voting.

This is also the reason why he treated it coldly. If the media that he befriended defended him, the two sides would have a dispute between you and me. This topic would be completely detonated, and the only person who would lose more than the gain would be himself.

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

"It turns out that this is also a poor woman."

Charlize, who was lying down and reading the script, suddenly sighed, "If someone in the middle is willing to stretch out a hand to pull her, Irene Warnos may not go down this road."

"Have you seen her picture?" Ryan motioned her to turn to the end, and when Charlize saw the picture, he reminded, "If you were to appear in this movie, you would be like this."

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

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

Now this diamond is her own woman, and some inappropriate plots must be eliminated.

Grabbing the hand holding his nose, Charlize put it to his mouth, and the two rows of silver teeth gently gnawed on it a few times, leaving a shallow tooth mark, then suddenly turned his head and deliberately rubbed his delicate face. He rubbed against a sensitive position, and after feeling obvious changes, he suddenly stood up with a smile, and jumped into the distance without waiting for Ryan to react.

"and many more!"

Looking at 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 in a while."

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

"I think since you called me over, you must be prepared, right?"

When Charlize looked at the stairs leading to the second floor, Ryan took her to the locker room upstairs, "I've already ordered evening dresses."

When he went upstairs, seeing Charlize's eyes swept across the door of one of the bedrooms, Ryan said, "You can choose any room."

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

"Change one."

Looking at Ryan, Charlize understood whose room this was, nodded and said, "Can you choose the third floor?"

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

Naturally, the two of them went to the premiere of "Monster Electric Company", which was deliberately selected to premiere on the weekend before Thanksgiving. Although both the name and the role of the film were full of the feeling of monsters, in fact, It's also a family-friendly movie.

After getting out of the RV, Ryan had no interest in spending much time on the red carpet. He ignored all the questions asked by the reporter and walked directly into the Chandler Hall. Charlize was very thoughtful and could roughly guess what he was thinking, holding him in his arms. His arms followed closely, even if there were hundreds of female fans on both sides swearing and attacking, he still wisely kept silent, just showing his most beautiful and elegant side in front of everyone.

"Don't worry too much." Walking into the hall of the theater, Ryan patted her hand comfortingly and laughed at himself, "There are not a few people who believe that your hardcore scolds me."

"I never ran to the door to protest such an exaggeration." She complained just right, and then reminded, "Mr. Weinstein is here."

"Hello, Miss Theron."

Hearing the 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 naturally knows what to say at this time, "Ryan's description of you is not wrong at all, your beauty is like the most precious diamond from South Africa ."

"Thank you, Harvey." Charlize covered her mouth and smiled softly.

"Nice job, Harvey."

After the big fat man finished chatting 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 For $100,000, I got the film adaptation rights of a novel in Chinese, and now this film has not only won the Palme d’Or, but also hopes to earn more than $100 million at the box office.”

"You're talking about Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, right?"

If he wants to stay by his side, Charlize knows that his vision must be broadened. If he can't keep up with his pace, someone will take his place sooner or later. "It is said that many media are praising this as the best overseas sci-fi film in recent years. "

Hearing the word "Sci-Fi", Ryan's mouth trembled. In the eyes of the North American media, kung fu movies are those represented by Jack Chen or Jet Li, which violate the laws of physics and fly in the sky. The movie I went to is a sci-fi movie similar to a superhero. ()
