Chapter 1219 The speed is too fast(2/2)
Lina thought for a moment and had no way to refute it, and asked with a smile: "Even if that's the case, what do you want to do then? Launch the feminist movement and expel more men from Hollywood?"
"I haven't thought so far yet."
"Then don't think about it. "Blair the Witch" will start filming in a week. I'd better think about how to do this project well."
Annika did not object, and sorted out the morning meeting with Lena, and then said after a moment: "I have recently quietly studied the case of "Ghost Records", which can only be said to be a miracle. Lena, how much box office will be in "The Witch Blair" next?"
"Since it is still the idea provided by Simon himself, the box office of 50 million US dollars is the bottom line that Daenerys can accept. I don't think the problem is big. No matter how low it is, it is our failure. And if it can break 100 million, I can gain a foothold in Simon."
Annika looked disappointed: "So you haven't stood firm yet?"
"Yes, it would be naive if you think you can please Simon with just one face."
Annika raised a slender hand and gestured slightly, smiling a little badly: "Actually, I want to ask, can you sit firmly?"
Lina: “…”
Annie Truck was too fast, and Lena was thrown into the ditch by a big bend before she could react. Then she threw away the folder in her hand, pressed Annie Truck on her seat, and cleaned up hard.
Lina's physical fitness was obviously better than Annika after exercising every day. In the end, Annika had to beg for mercy before she was let go.
Everyone's time is precious.
Since he was unable to stay overnight by a man and returned to downtown Boston, Lena boarded the plane and flew back to Los Angeles with the others to prepare for the final filming of "The Witch Blair".
Back in Los Angeles, the team immediately began to make final modifications to the script according to the results of everyone's discussion at the meeting, and to find a suitable photographer. In fact, Paul Greengrass has already looked for it in advance, but compared with the project "Blair the Witch", it is a bit expensive. After Simon's permission, the team officially signed a contract with the other party.
Simon had no objection to this either.
Because the photographer's name is Oliver Wood.
The photographer and Paul Greengrass are both British. They are both middle-aged and met very early and have had some cooperation in their early years.
In the 1980s, Oliver Wood was the first to develop in Hollywood and successfully joined the ranks of first-tier photographers. He has filmed films such as "Die Hard 2". The most recent big production is John Wu's "Face Change". However, although it is a first-tier one, because he has been filming TV series or commercial films for more than 20 years of debut, Oliver Wood has not won an Oscar nomination.
This also keeps the other party's value within the budget acceptable range of "Blair the Witch".
Moreover, there is another reason why Simon has no objection.
Oliver Wood is the original photographer of the "Spy Shadows" trilogy in the original time and space.
Now it seems that this is obviously because Wood and Greengrass have known each other for a long time, and it also proves that the two are quite perfect partners.
Therefore, Simon understood that he would not need to deliberately push anything next. This time, "Blair the Witch" was adjusted, and the subsequent "Public Enemy" was directed by Paul Greengrass, and the photographer's position will naturally fall into Oliver Wood's hands, just right.
Because of the inviting guests, Simon spent the weekend in Boston and flew back to Los Angeles on Monday morning.
The recent Daenerys Entertainment is not just the new year financial report that has just been released. As a series of large and small film projects such as "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "The Matrix", "Public Enemy", "The Witch", "Youth Dance", "Celebrity", "Elizabeth" and other film projects are being intensively promoted, and people from all walks of life in the circle are also taking frequent actions.
Simon left for a week and returned to Hollywood, and immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
Malibu, Daenerys Cinema.
It's Monday afternoon on October 17, on the West Coast.
An audition is being held in an office building in the cinema administrative district. The heroine of "Singing and Dance" is full of young girls.
The two original heroines, Christina Aguilera, have signed the contract, while Britney Spears has been replaced.
Not only "Singing and Dance Youth", a girl's father was involved in a very serious case of rape of a 13-year-old girl. The evidence was conclusive and he was caught by the police on the spot. In addition, the crimes of assaulting the police, for the sake of the reputation of the project, even if the matter has nothing to do with the girl, Daenerys Entertainment could not train the other party anymore. Therefore, Daenerys Records also terminated the contract with the girl, and there will be no more singles or records.
Lynn Spears, who had been worried about doing something for a long time, faced with the incident, and could easily guess the inside story. The poor woman was called to the police station that night and saw the deep bite marks on the rescued underage girl and the black policeman's arms. After a night, her tense nerves relaxed.
It's like some kind of liberation.
The day after the incident, George Norman came to the door and did not mention the previous night at all, but signed a secret agreement with the Spears family.
There is definitely not 200 million, but a compensation worth $2 million is still given here, which is divided into 30 years of payment in the form of a secret trust. The beneficiary is Lynn Spears, who can receive about $5,000 per month, which is enough for the family to live a good life.
Then, the Spears family needed to promise to leave Los Angeles and move to anywhere else, just as if nothing had happened. George Norman also directly showed Lynn Spears the original recording evidence here, saying that it would be fine if the other party continued to make trouble. Not only could it be impossible to get anything, but she herself would enter prison for extortion.
Lynn Spears did not struggle at all and decisively signed the agreement.
Then, a stranger came to the door and sent another divorce agreement. Lynn Spears continued to sign it, and was reminded by the other party, just as he never remembered Jamie Spears. As for other relatives of Jamie Spears, he would be responsible for notifying him.
The powerful strangers also helped the Spears family change their brand new identity surnames. Lynn Spears chose a little on an American map. Three days later, the family of six moved to a small town in northern Florida. Lynn Spears also got a job as a music teacher at a local school.
Then there is nothing and then.
The other children were nothing, and Britney was obviously unacceptable to this sudden change. After crying, the little girl even guessed some of the inside story and had a big fight with her mother, which was useless in the end. Even if she came out of that small town in the future, the North American entertainment circle would not have her place.
For the whole thing, Simon listened to Neil Bennett's verbal report and followed up. He only said one more time and knew it, so he ignored it.
Sometimes I just think of it.
The former Britney Spears was firmly imprisoned by her father as a mental illness for more than ten years. This time, she may lose her fame, but she is ordinary and will at least have a different life from her former life.
Of course, Simon didn't mean to excuse himself if he thought so.
Good people need psychological comfort.
Even if the final outcome of a little girl on the new timeline will be even worse, he will not pay attention to it. Where Simon is standing at this time, the whole thing is just a very inconspicuous little ripple in his life.
As for the lack of a little Tiantian in the history of North American music, it also doesn't matter.
This world is fine without anyone else.
Some of the other follow-ups of the matter were an unknown rumor in the circle. Someone wanted to blackmail a Hollywood boss with his daughter's affairs. In the end, not only did he end up miserably, but he also implicated his daughter and was completely expelled from Hollywood, and he had no chance to turn things around.
The spread of things is not widespread, and all kinds of vagueness are vague, but for people in the game, it is easy to get the role of the person, so some unknown vigilance and introspection are inevitable.
Busy audition scene.
Simon's official casting director Linda Waggs personally watched here for an hour and then had to leave. She didn't have so much time to follow up the whole process, and she had to report some project to her boss later.
The reason why it appears here was Simon's order.
According to Simon's requirements, projects involving similar subjects must be personally responsible for Linda Waggs in the future, including the final decision-making of the role.
The main purpose is to avoid certain uncontrollable situations to the greatest extent.
