So Dancing My Life Sequel project is changing, and the cat and mouse game project is also changing.
"Matthew McConaughey won't come to audition anymore. He is going to compete with Little Plum for the hero of the Titanic. Chris O'Donnell also withdrew the audition appointment. He has already got the Robin role in Forever Batman. Two film appointments. This one is a supporting role. Later, Batman and Robin will be upgraded to male two..."
Linton, the president of Hollywood Pictures, wrote on the audition list, "They don't like the cat and mouse game heroes."
"Hollywood is always changing so fast, right?" Song Ya laughed, "I said why Chris O'Donnell transformed himself into a tougher image. Last time he almost didn't recognize him as a woman who smells fragrance It turns out that the custody **** in, he was going to play Robin."
"Haha, anyway, you think someone has a chin."
Linton laughed. He was in a good mood. Hollywood Pictures invested 20 million yuan. APLUS participated in the production. David Fincher may direct. After the project was released based on the autobiography of the legendary liar, Abagnell, he The company of is obviously sought after in the industry a lot, and some big-name brokers have begun to come to contact with each other.
"Hollywood is very practical." He said: "Everyone is starting to be cautious about us now. The reason why I used the word cautious is to remind you that many things are not settled by many people."
"Please tell me." Song Ya made a humbly gesture of listening attentively. Linton's ability to do things is very strong, although the two parties were not very happy when they first came into contact.
"First of all, he was in contact with the original author, Abagnell. He is a liar. You know, this kind of person has a very good brain, so even if he has already sold the right to adapt, he still tries to dig out of our mouth. He can't deal with the maximum benefit."
Linton said: "How much do you think is appropriate to pay him?"
"A remuneration for a script consultant?" Song Ya said.
"Not enough. The consultant fee must be paid. He has run announcements, lectures, and book sales over the years. He is well-known in the United States and even other English-speaking countries. If he can help with the announcement, I plan to pay him more. . It’s okay, but it’s tiring to play against a legendary liar..."
Linton said, "Do you have any ideas?"
"I recently dealt with the FBI, you know, the Sinaloa case." Song Ya said, "The second man in our script is an FBI agent, and that person is mentioned in the original work by Abaganel. I think we might as well find the prototype of the agent, and then pull it over to be a consultant. He is definitely cheaper than Abagnell, and if he has another witness, Abagnell’s value to us will be better. Greatly reduced, so is his bargaining power..."
"Wow~www.mtlnovel.com~ Your idea is very old, APLUS, how did you come up with it?" Linton said, slapped.
"Hey, no, it's just that I want to slap the FBI's flattery recently."
Song Ya smiled embarrassedly. Vic killed an agent. Even if he was successfully covered up, he now has a guilty conscience towards the FBI. There is a famous saying in the hip-hop circle that singers are not afraid of the heavens and are not afraid of them. God is the most afraid, followed by the FBI, because even if the singers are not so popular, they are all small celebrities from the local gang. What's the trouble, and because the gang likes to win over the rappers, the gangs the singers run into are generally not low-energy in the local area. It is normal to get some local police officers. Therefore, if the crime is only trivial, the police will not be able to deter them. The FBI, who is afraid of having extensive law enforcement powers and does not know when it will suddenly fall from the sky.
"Actually we thought of going together."
Linton blinked slyly, and pulled out a person's resume from the folder, "Joseph Shea, a veteran FBI agent, has done many big cases, and has also handled Abagnell's case, although he arrested that person. The actual process of the legendary liar is not as legendary as the adaptation in your script, but if we fix him first, Abagnell will definitely be good, and the two of them have a good relationship later."
"Is it cheap?" Song Ya asked.
"He is over 70 years old. An ordinary retired old man can make a windfall, and his past experience will also be glorified as the protagonist of the movie. There is no possibility of unwillingness. Let me say that he would be willing to calculate the cost of the ride. It’s just that if it is affected by the media, the exposure will not be very good.” Linton replied.
"OK, let's find him first."
Song Ya agreed.

Chicago 1990 Chapter 609: Rusher
Thanks to the hard work of Abagnell’s diehard fans, screenwriter Kunes and others, the script of the cat and mouse game is getting closer and closer to the original version in Song Ya’s mind, so besides Abagnell, it is urgent to fix the director problem. Although David Fincher expressed his willingness to accept the guide tube, as long as the contract is not signed, all verbal promises will be counted.
David Fincher's motives, Song Ya and Linton, are very clear. He definitely doesn't want to sign any contract before the Seven Deadly Sins project is finished. The more promising the film is, the higher his price will be.
If possible, his agent even wants to wait until the seven deadly sins are released next year before discussing the specific contract, but at least it will be the summer file. Song Ya and Linton can’t wait. Now the project is waiting for the director to participate in the script adaptation. .
The cat and mouse game requires high acting skills for the lead actors and cannot be used cheaply. In addition, the script is adapted by Song Ya according to the original film guidance of 140 minutes. It is a bit choking to get a budget of 20 million. Where the cost needs to be reduced, where it needs to be cut, and where it needs to be changed to a cheaper solution, the director should discuss with the producer in the early stage of preparation, otherwise the project may get out of control.
"We set a deadline for David Fincher to make the final decision?" Song Ya asked, "Otherwise, we would not be able to do anything if we were so hanged."
"Let me see, how about next February 14th? Valentine's Day." Linton asked.
"How did you calculate such an exact date?" Song Ya was strange.
"That day was the day when the Oscar nomination was announced. You know, Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman are the starring actors of the Seven Deadly Sins, while Brad Pitt visits vampires at night, and Morgan Freeman is expected to get the performance by Shawshank's salvation. Award nominations, if they are nominated, it will be good for the seven deadly sins’ box office attractiveness and David Fincher’s bargaining power, otherwise it will be good for us. At that time, we will talk to him and his agent for the last time. It's all about the talk."
Linton's words made Song Ya also responded with applause, "Wow, I like the arrangement at this time, and it's in place."
The two of them sat there and blew each other a few rounds, and the host and the guest enjoyed themselves.
"Things have come to this point, have you settled the funding there?"
Song Ya shook hands with him and asked when he said goodbye. According to the agreement, the two sides will pay for the cat and mouse game project. The money is not a problem for him. He also brought in Johnny Carson’s money. Linton’s Hollywood Pictures is not necessarily. They have always made small-cost movies.
"We will invest 5 million ourselves, and then find a way to get other Disney film companies to help. The remaining gap has to go to attract external investors. Will you help me come out? You are more attractive to them. Linton took the opportunity to propose.
