Chicago 1990

Cat and mouse game?Can there be any scandal?Am I invincible?

Song Ya recalled that, except for the unspoken rules and scandals, which have not done much to him now, there is only the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. Some media questioned like Clint Eastwood on the day of the awards ceremony. I use the energy of investors to make a name award. If this is true, it is indeed a very bad scandal...

But I used the Apocalypse movie to get the outline of the script myself. The relevant manuscripts, contracts and other evidence are well preserved. It's really troublesome. I throw away the evidence and the truth becomes clear. Isn't it possible to add points to myself?The three screenwriters who knew about it all got the Oscars. Now it's time to make money through the huge increase in their net worth. When their brains are sick, they will dance with rumors. They all know they have evidence!

Then what else?

Secretly brandishing big scissors to the celebrity guide Ridley Scott?That pot (credit) Linton had taken it long ago, but not necessarily, because I seem to have seen a report recently...

This kind of thing naturally called Yeremov, and Song Ya asked the president of the A+ film studio to appear in front of him immediately.

"What report? Oh, that's it..."

Yeremov started from the beginning: “Of course, the editor himself knows who is directing the editing. He also signed a non-disclosure agreement before and agreed with us to say that Linton asked him to do this, but several of his circles A friend called him wronged during the awards season. One of his film critics and friends posted that the greatest hero of the film would be him. Linton's level at most provided some general guidance. He accused us of not pushing him out to get the best Oscar. The reason for being nominated for a good editor, or winning a few small awards from the Association, is to be afraid of offending Ridley Scott, and deliberately ignore his contribution...because the editing of this film is to hit the director in the face."

"That's it?" Song Ya sounded nothing.

"That's it, but it seems that some reporters are digging into the news. Now the cat and mouse game is out of gear, and the entire crew has been scattered to work on new projects, and all kinds of weird rumors are coming out one after another."

Yeremov said: "Ridley Scott has been disturbed many times while hiding in the UK. In the past, during his honeymoon period, Hollywood Pictures and Bruce Willie and Demi Moore planned a call. Demi Moore's big project, starring Demi Moore, now because of the trouble, Linton gave the guide tube to the female director Catherine Bigelow. The team has been set up, so I will quickly enter the group to shoot."

Ridley Scott seems to have been miserable by his unintentional actions...

"This Linton didn't let me pass through at all." Song Ya complained.

"In fact, the root of the problem is that we didn't take the right to adapt Abagnell's'Art of theft'."

Yeremov complained, "Now the whole crew knows that we have nothing to do with the new project, so all interest relationships begin to collapse, such as Jared Leto. His agent now often runs to buyer Tom Hanks. The others are similar, and the three screenwriters are also going in that direction."

"Does Jared Leto still have a chance to get the hero of the'sequel'?" Song Ya asked, "I have read Abagnell's new book. The protagonist is already middle-aged, right?"

"Yes, Tom Hanks is likely to continue to direct and act by himself, and it is even possible for Spielberg to direct him. He is with friends in the circle, such as well-known producers Gary Gotzmann, Spielberg and others to raise funds. The ambition to grab the right of adaptation from us at the top price of 4 million is not small. Jared Leto played the most protagonist in his youth, and recent projects will not be promoted at all, because Tom Hanks should be waiting for the director’s debut After the release of "Unstoppable Miracle", observe the box office performance and professional reputation."

Yeremov nodded: "In addition, there is the actress who snatched the role of Charis Bank teller. She boasted to her girlfriends about the relationship between Harvey and her, and Ashley Judd from the crew, and was stabbed by her girlfriends. I gave it to the media. And your relationship with Xue Linfen, and Amy, the media had already guessed it."

"It's troublesome." Song Ya scratched his head.

"Fortunately, Hollywood is like this. Fortunately, we are a successful crew. Otherwise, we will be overwhelmed by media hype and attack if we are against the director."

Yeremov comforted the boss, "Think about Mira’s return to the Blue Coral Reef project. What happened to me, you, and Mira at that time? Seriously, these are nothing, at least Not to fall into the crazily attacking each other within the crew, Ridley Scott is also very quiet at the moment."

"Ha ha……"

Song Ya smiled. He also knows that a crew is a small society, and when the tree falls and the hustle and bustle is scattered, everything can happen. So it seems that Yeremov's words are indeed correct, just other failures he knows. Projects, such as Mariah Carey’s Star Dream Tears, weren’t there some negative rumors that the crew broke the news that she was playing big names, and they said that the two Jack Russell Terriers were given a special nanny car, and the dogs were better treated than people? ?

The new director of the film, Steve Ron Mitchell, went all out on the street. He lost his chance in Hollywood and threw the pot to Mariah Carey in anger. By the way, he yelled at the male protagonist Jude Law and hyped the news for To promote a TV drama project planned by him and Jude Law, it seems to follow the trend of cat and mouse games, and the "pretender" who cooperated with ABC station plans to go online in the second half of the year.

I also danced the second part of my life. After hearing that the sequel project was frozen by the world, the male and female protagonists Jennifer Love Hewitt and Gosling immediately turned their faces and blamed each other, and their brains were about to come out.

Gosling’s agent also used the same trick, suggesting that Jennifer Love Hewitt played a big name, did not respect the crew and did not practice the dance properly. Jennifer Love Hewitt’s agent bought the draft to counterattack, saying that Gosling was courteous and harassed. , Pursuing the woman is not annoyed and turned into anger.

To tear the daughter of the midway director, the second female Maggie Gyllenhaal joined the battle and publicly supported Gosling. Jennifer Love Hewitt said that it was the second generation who relied on her parents to take the resources and did it out of jealousy.

In short, it is so realistic. There is no new project to fish in front. After the crew is disbanded, various gossips will spread due to various factors. If the interpersonal relationship is already tense and the project is not successful, a lot of tears will explode sooner or later. .

In fact, this is not a means for the creators to save themselves. It is better to have news than no news, and it is better to have heat than cool down, even if it is negative.

"Fortunately, the cat and mouse game is a success, and a big success."

Song Ya said: "In addition to the rumors related to Ridley Scott, I see that even if the cast and crew of various positions on the crew are separated, they always praise each other, such as Jared Leto and John Malkovich, and He and Abagnell both had a good personal relationship. After the project ended, they were still good friends, interacting often. There are also Johnny Carson and me, and three screenwriters who won Oscars at the same time..."

"In general, this is the case, but when Linton pressures Nicarson's investment to be divided, everything is not necessarily true."

Yeremov smiled.

"Don't do too much of you two." Song Ya warned him, "I don't want to be scolded by the former talk show king."

"Don't worry, it won't be too much. Besides, doesn't Johnny Carson know who is the real winner in the Oscar's best adapted screenplay? Money is not important to him, honor is important." Yeremov said.

"Don't say that, although he didn't contribute much to the script, I couldn't get the Oscar without relying on his fame. This is a win-win thing for us." Song Ya still has this point.

However, there was a problem with this matter. Early the next morning, there were media reports that Kunes, one of the three screenwriters, had received the autobiography commission of Johnny Carson to lead the compilation of the former talk show king. Personal memoirs.

"I don't have it? I just often invite them to be a guest at home, so I won't authorize the memoir to a third-rate screenwriter who hasn't known each other for a long time." Song Ya called and asked, the old man himself was completely confused.

"It's spread out that there is a nose and eyes. I heard that a publishing house has already paid him a deposit." Song Ya said.

"Wait, I'll ask my agent and wait for my news." Johnny Carson knew how good he was, and hung up the phone to confirm.
