Chicago 1990

Chapter 814: It's Me

"Damn..."

The film ends with the introduction of Abagnell's life picture and subtitles in reality. The two applauded with everyone, and after a brief chat with their colleagues, they left.

Hayden accompanied Amy to New York, and Donovan, who was in Los Angeles, recognized them. He knew that Bergman’s Phantom Project and Dance Out had a less intense competition in my life. One of Amy's co-agents, he realized that it was not a good thing for this guy to appear next to the boss of the Romeo and Juliet project, Baz Luhmann.

"Mr. Ruchmann, won't you attend the dinner later?"

He hurried to remedy the situation and sent his subordinates to stare at the two Hollywood bosses in the parking lot. After saying goodbye, he ran over to make a chance encounter with Bazlukhman and talked alone.

"My crew has something else."

Baz Luhman knew that the other party was one of William Morris’ top agents. He may have been short of breath before, but... who told him to take APLUS early, "Just call me Baz." A little confused, "I Remember that the cat and mouse game project is a packaging service provided by CAA?"

"Yes, but not all. We also have artists under our banner, such as Amy." Donovan asked, "Do you like her performance in this movie?"

"I like it very much."

"that……"

"I know what you mean, but I still need to think about it."

There are also many top agents who like to use the tactics of brown sugar. Bazlukhman has just moved to Hollywood and is in the stage of adaptation. At the same time, he likes to play multiple roles and has a strong desire to control projects. Pressure comes from all directions. Don't want to entangle with unfamiliar agents rashly, "Let's talk in detail later, there are about ten days before the final decision."

I think I want to wait for the first week of the box office of the cat and mouse game to talk about it. Donovan feels that there is a play, "Amy is very careful in taking the film. She really likes the role of Juliet in your modern adaptation. She danced my life from the shoot. I used to practice Shakespeare's plays before."

Is this the start of brown candy?That's because Amy Adams has no professional acting education and can only make up lessons halfway, right?"I understand that she is good at speaking, and Hayden has been in contact with me recently." Bazluhman sneered in his heart.

"As long as you choose her, I promise that she will devote herself to the Romeo and Juliet project. Her competitors can't do it, such as Claire Dennis. As far as I know, she is filming'Imitated Love'? "

Donovan also began to take eye drops. William Morris' intelligence also showed that Claire Dennis was the most threatening to Amy. "Next year, she will take over the role in'Night Sleep and Life and Death', and she will start playing."

Bazlukhman shook his head, "I don't care about this. After all, she won the Emmy Award nominations and Golden Globe Award for Best Drama Series Actress in the past year by'what I call life', which is very popular."

"I admit that her small screen is very good, but the movie? Last year she was completely suppressed by Winona Ryder and Christen Dunst in'Little Women'." Donovan didn't stick to it. Let go, "Amy is on the big screen when she debuts, she's the starring role, and always has been. And in terms of remuneration..."

"I will think about it all together. Anyway, wait for my news, Donovan."

Bazluhman said that Amy Adams had messed up both projects, and smiled and stretched out his hand, "I promise."

Soon, at noon on the 24th, he finally got the relevant box office report.

"The cat and mouse game is 6.5 million! This result includes the whole day on the 23rd, the evening results on the 22nd, the early files in the afternoon on the 22nd, and the box office starting from the 17th. Including, of course, the number of theaters in advance and on-screen screening are not high.

"Is it all right?" he asked.

"It's pretty good. In the movies that opened at the same time, it only lost 10 million to Toy Story. In addition to the continuation of the hit 007 Golden Eye and the sequel to the Detective Aircraft Head, the cat and mouse game can also be ranked first in the box office at the same time. Four." The subordinates said: "Stop the four million and five million of the gambling city and the four million of the money train far away.

"so……"

"Amy Adams turned over in one fell swoop! Although she doesn't have many roles in this men's drama, she is still qualified to be the heroine."

"Cheers!"

At the same time, Song Ya was already celebrating with the cat and mouse game crew. Due to the strong performance on the first day, Bowei happily replenished the announcement and theater resources that had been deducted before, and looked for it.Cat Mouse Game won the head-to-head duel with the casino and the money train, which made him extremely happy. Netscape's stock price has rushed to 110, and it is moving towards 122. The 21 albums are in both the United States and Brazil. Big sales, Grey Goose Vodka is sold out, it's all good news, all good news!

"Congratulations, Mr. APLUS."

Jared Leto, with his long hair and short beard back, toasted, "We made it."

"Ok!"

Song Ya embraced his shoulders excitedly and shook it vigorously, "Next, there is a more laborious announcement schedule. It's all up to you, Leto."

Similar to Jim Clark’s focus on turning Mark Anderson into Netscape’s technological hero, Cat and Mouse discovered long ago that in the entire crew, only Leto has the ability to withstand the madness of opponents while garnering a lot of media attention. Discrimination, so he was naturally selected as the focus of packaging in the cat and mouse game project.

His agent’s reversal in Ridley Scott made him and the director separate. This move was appreciated by Linton and others. Now neither the producer nor the distributor mind giving him more resources. And opportunity.

The next day is the long Thanksgiving holiday, and the box office of Cat Mouse Game should be very beautiful in the first week.

He has a good personal image, no negative black material, or has not had time to make black material, and plays a romantic, handsome, a woman who falls into trouble when she sees him, has a very high IQ, and the prodigal son turns around. The charm of the movie role is also reversed. Can affect the outside world's perception of the actor himself, Leto is now invincible.

In a word, he has to rely on this cat and mouse game to become popular!

"Young girls love him so much."

Leto turned to look at APLUS's hand on his shoulder. Linton in the distance stared at him and smiled: "Advertisers are starting to find him. I just noticed that his agent took ten calls. The cat and mouse game male host design is too helpful for young male stars, he will even be more popular with big brands than APLUS, high-end menswear, cars, electronic products, perfume..."

"APLUS is black after all..."

Yeremov almost broke the mystery here. He was too happy and was already drinking too much. "Oh, yes, the damn well-known film critic Roger Albert took our public relations benefits but started four Star wholesale, he did give the cat and mouse game a full four stars, but at the same time he also gave four stars to the casino, and the money train has three and a half stars..."

"Don't worry, now Cat and Mouse Games has established itself as a commercial feature film instead of a mere biography. Besides, we can't count on the awards season now..."

Linton was angry at the thought of the awards season, "Did our director say anything again?"

"Ridley Scott? The old man didn't say anything, maybe he is autistic in the UK hahaha!" Yeremov laughed.

"The freelance writers from Variety Show and Empire Magazine came over." The attache beside the two reminded them.

When he had an old grudge with these two guys, Linton immediately suppressed his smile and started to deal with Yeremov intently.

"Congratulations, Mr. Linton, Mr. Yeremov..."

The two movie media guys who have a good status in Hollywood first praised the cat and mouse game, and then the conversation turned around, and it really became entangled in the editing dispute.

"There are few directors who can get the final editing rights. You and I know this well, but you like to hide this from the public. In the conflict between the director and the film crew, you always choose to stand by the director." Ye Liemo The husband complained quietly.

"Screenwriters and directors should have greater creative freedom. Hollywood's industrial assembly line is stifling the art of film." The other side vie with each other.

"Well, I agree." The discussion about art film companies can't win, and Linton doesn't bother to argue with each other on this issue.

"Will you release a director's cut version of the cat and mouse game in the future? I'm not referring to the fake version of the director's cut version of Blade Runner released by Warner."

The other party said, "The real, completely free director's editing version for Ridley. We look forward to seeing what his personal version of this movie will look like."

Linton rolled his eyes.

"We will consider this issue in the future, okay? But don't play tricks out of context and write that we have plans to release a director's cut version or something."

Yeremov knew it was time to stand up, "And this power is not in our hands, you are also asking the publisher Fang Bowei Pictures."

"But it is indeed the final version of your editing, right? I heard some gossip that the CEO of Bowei Pictures had previously hinted that he was not involved in this matter." The other party laughed.

"Really?" Yeremov smiled bitterly. "Well, it's time to make this clear..."

"Yes, it's me, I let someone cut it."

Unexpectedly, Linton suddenly turned one hundred and eighty degrees and took the initiative to recognize, "So what? The film is not exciting? Or does the audience dislike it?"
