"The script synopsis is a pair of police detective partners with different personalities. When investigating a case, the identity was reversed in front of important witnesses. In order to gain the trust of the witnesses, they had to be exchanged in the subsequent investigation process. The story of identity life. "

Jerry · Bruckheimer did not notice the subtle changes in the expression of Eric. Compared with the somewhat verbose David · Weisberg when introducing The Rock, Bruckheimer proficiently summarized the story in a simple and clear way using the principles of high-concept movies The simple details also show the huge gap between the gold medal Producer and the ordinary screenwriter.

"This is a good idea. The dual police detective partner model has proved to be very successful in the two films" Lethal Weapon "and" Beverly Hills Cop ". The selling point of swapping identities also adds innovative elements to the story. Jerry, have you selected Director? "

When Bruckheimer heard Eric, she could n’t help sitting upright and asked, “Eric, would n’t you be interested in this story?”

In the original time and space, the phrase "Bad Boys" ​​became popular in the later two heavyweights Michael · Bei and Will · Smith of Hollywood. Although it is only a low-cost crime film, it is enough to prove its excellence. Eric is certainly not May let go, nodded and said: "why not, this story is very attractive, and the cost is not high, maybe it will be able to achieve unexpected results."

Bruckheimer put away the expression he had just planned to gossip about, and stood up to answer the question Eric said just now: "You know, the" The Lost World: Jurassic Park "project has just been completed. I only recently made time to prepare for the next stage of work. I got this script last year and gave it back to Firefly Film Studio. They think that there are too many shoots similar videos, so they did n’t pass. I did n’t plan to hand this book to you. With Columbia Bian ’s contact has just begun. Now, except for budget data, Director, Actor and the like are not available. "

The Film Industry service of Firefly is mainly responsible for its major Film Studio. In addition to the key films Eric each year, it will be personally finalized and supervised in production. For other low-cost movies, Eric doesn't pay much attention.

Hearing that script was once eliminated by Firefly, Eric did not have any dissatisfaction with the production department, and Bruckheimer did not blame the Firefly production department for being discreet. Being in Hollywood. Everyone knows that the person in charge of Film Studio has to select a few dozen or 20 films from the massive script every year for shoots. It is simply impossible to determine 100% of the potential of all script. Hollywood has a lot of bumpy production processes but was eventually The early stage of the film that proved the big sale basically turned around in all Film Studio hands.

Also, if there is no previous life memory. Eric may also feel that this script is too cliché. Not to mention those obsessed with the nameless follow-up works, even the most famous two similar series "Lethal Weapon" and "Beverly Hills Cop", have already made a lot of sequels.

"So, the cooperation with Columbia is consider as finished. I think this project can be well thought out and placed in the schedule at the end of this year. Firefly currently only determines a Christmas file" 101 Dalmatians ", maybe this The movie is on Thanksgiving. "

"Eric, Thanksgiving, are you kidding?" Bruckheimer said in surprise. He originally expected that such a low-cost criminal action film, even if it is a good thing to get an Easter period, even if it is placed in the deserted autumn period, it will not be surprising, there is no summer and New Year period. Considered.

"Of course not," Eric said: "However, I haven't seen script yet, so this is just a preliminary idea. In the end, I still need to see the quality of the film after it is completed. If the idea is good, it is a bad film. , The gratitude file is definitely gone. "

Bruckheimer said: "I will call someone to send script over here."

Eric looked at his watch and said, "That's fine, but I still have things to come. script sent it over, I can only watch it at night."

Bruckheimer is not in a hurry: "Of course, you watch slowly, I will prepare" The Rock "first, let's talk about it again."

Send Bruckheimer away, and Eric is still thinking about it. Today's "The Rock" and "Bad Boys", in the original time and space, are Michael · Bei's Director works, it seems that it is time to turn the explosive shell into Hollywood.

In the original time and space, although Michael · Bei has been ridiculed as an explosive shell, and it is also listed as one of the most bad film critic bad movies Director, in fact, Michael · Bei is the darling of Hollywood Film Studio, mainly because Michael · Bei never played deeply, dedicated to shoots commercial films, not only most of the films can bring profits to the filmmakers, the more rare thing is that the production budget and shoots cycle are never overrun and overdue, it feels like a Alternative Hollywood office worker.

Thinking of Michael · Bei, naturally thinking can't get around "Transformers". Eric suddenly realized that this huge blockbuster series copyright with unlimited potential has not yet got it.

It's just that the reputation of "Transformers" is really too great. If you want to get copyright, you will definitely need some twists and turns.

Just recorded these things in the work memo, Eric heard that the office door was knocked, and then the Emily probe came in: "Eric, it has been several days, you will not plan to put it again this time. Am I a pigeon? "

Eric collected the memo and got up and smiled at the Emily standing at the door: "You do n’t have to be so ruthless, use the trick of blocking the door."

"You dare to say me! Just let you help to watch the commercials, you can delay for so long."

Eric walked out with Emily and said, "For your business, I pushed away the appointments for this afternoon, but there are always situations where I can't hide. You don't know that I have recently How busy, except for death postcards and rattlesnake, these days I'm exactly the same as the actor in Robert · Altman "Big Player", 135 calls per day, if you insist on one year, it will be 50,000. "

Emily has obviously not watched "Big Player" and whispered: "How could it be so many."

Eric looked at Emily and said with a smile: "If it is just to help you watch the Victoria’s Secret commercial and take the video tape to my office, you insist on letting me go to the post-production studio. Do you have any other plans? First Recruit in advance, otherwise I will definitely not cooperate at that time. "

Emily flashed a guilty expression, but soon straightened and said: "Should n’t a smart man be confused at the right time?"

"This is the obligation that Chris should undertake, I ca n’t control it."

"I did n’t expect anything from you," said Emily: "That ’s it. We have selected an alternative Director for this year ’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. He is excellent in the production of commercials and MTV, and has won some professional awards. , We just collaborated on a commercial. When it was n’t finalized whether Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was handed over to him, so I wanted you to take a look. "

Eric shook his head and said with a smile: "No, I think the truth should be like this. He wants to switch to a movie. But in Hollywood there is no way, you want him to make Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, so I sold it. "

Emily's helpless expression: "Okay, okay, I admit that you are a little smarter than Chris, can't you?"

Eric no longer joke, just said: "First say yes, just meet, I can not guarantee anything, if you promise anything in advance, then solve it yourself."

"I ’m not a fool. How can I promise in advance. Moreover, creating an opportunity to contact you is already a dream of many people, and he will not be stupid enough to ask for anything."

"Oh, that seems to be the case. I'm a big man now," Eric shrugged and asked, "What's that guy's name?"

"Michael · Bei."

"Oh ... Ah?" Eric just nodded, but subconsciously raised his tone, his tone full of surprises that couldn't be concealed.

"Michael · Bei, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing. It seems that I have heard of it somewhere," Eric explained, but he felt emotion. Is it an explosion day today?

In the original time and space, Michael · Bei used to be the Victoria's Secret royal commercial Director, and the heroine of "Transformers3" was born in the angel Victoria’s Secret. After the introduction of Emily, Eric learned that Michael · Bei was already well-known in MTV and advertising circles and won a series of MTV and commercial awards.

However, even MTV or commercial Director are the ultimate. The status of the industry is far inferior to that of the movie Director, and even TV series Director. Just like the stage dramas Actor and TV series Actor will sharpen their heads and enter the big screen, there are few MTVs or commercials Director do not want to transform the movie Director, Hollywood has done the most successful in this regard, it must be Michael · Bay and David · Fincher .

The post-production center of Firefly Studios.

Eric saw Michael · Bei ’s advertising works for the first time in the viewing room. With the long-term training in MTV and the commercial film industry, Michael · Bei has formed in terms of color control, rapid operation mirror and lens editing, etc. Strong personal style, and, as long as I have seen the movie of Michael · Bei, just knows is very good at showing the curvaceous beauty of the female body. In Transformers, Megan Fox leaned over the bumblebee hood. The lens was almost all male audiences. The relish scene, cooperation with Victoria’s Secret and shoots Neiyi advertising is simply a match made in heaven.

After watching a commercial of 30 in one minute, in addition to mediocre creativity, Eric did not find any dissatisfaction. Moreover, advertising creativity is not the responsibility of Michael · Bei.

The lights are on. Emily sitting next to Eric is most concerned about the problems of Victoria’s Secret itself, and ca n’t wait to ask: "Eric, what do you think?"

Eric glanced at the other side of the Emily while the probe came over and listened to the Michael · Bei, who nodded and said: "The colors, editing, and soundtrack are very good. If you only intercept the five-minute TV commercial shot, this film Enough is enough, but this commercial is lack of creativity as a whole. The one-and-a-half-minute commercial is just a stiff accumulation of a series of surname elements. I can't find any focus at all. "

Emily said: "We just intend to intercept TV commercials, but Eric, do you have any ideas?"

"This," Eric shrugged and said, "You're looking for an advertising company to pick it slowly, I don't have more time to help you toss these, but, think about the enduring big-name commercials, you just knows creativity is so important, so you better take it seriously. "

Emily is a little unwilling, but knows that it is impossible to extravagance too much. Eric has created a hugely influential Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show advertisement for Victoria’s Secret. It is impossible to waste too much energy in this respect, so the body leans back. Formally introduced: "Eric. This is Michael · Bei."

Michael · Bei quickly got up and reached out to Eric and said: "Mr. Williams, I'm glad to see you."

Eric got up and shook hands with Michael · Bei, laughing: "The mirror technique in the commercial just now is great. Emily said you will take over this year's Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, and I hope you can make an impressive one again. Nei Yixiu came out. "

"I will do my best, Mr. Williams."

Speaking of this, the crowd got up and left the viewing room, crossing the long corridor and going to the meeting room on the other side.

Michael · Bei followed the crowd. Looking at the Eric whispering with Emily, Edward · Razek, etc., I was a little disappointed, thinking that this opportunity had passed. But after a while, he saw Eric turned his head and waved at him, so he quickly stepped forward.

"Nothing will happen to us next, let's go with me," Eric finished, instead of following Emily to the meeting room, but turned to the stairs and walked directly downstairs.

Michael · Bei was a little confused about the situation. After froze for a while, Edward · Razek patted on his shoulder with envious eyes, and then he woke up, surprised, and followed without hesitation.

After several years of development, in addition to the studio area that is too large in volume, office areas such as digital field studios, studios, and post-production centers have been surrounded by green trees.

Eric took Michael · Bei to leave the post-production center and walked leisurely along the boulevard towards the administrative district, nodding to the staff who greeted him from time to time.

Michael · Bei slightly staggered and followed him next to Eric. He knew nothing about Eric's character. Although he wanted to express himself, Eric did not take the initiative to speak, and he did not dare to say anything. He just secretly looked at the young people who suddenly rose in Hollywood in recent years. Although he is a few years younger than himself, Michael · Bei can clearly feel the kind of calmness that is completely incompatible with the age of Eric. He knows that this is definitely not an illusion, but he ca n’t find any reason to explain it. The natural aura.

previous life's unreachable Hollywood big Director, at this time, the younger brother is behind him, and the two are human. After so many years, the impetuous breath at the time of its rise has disappeared. Eric does not produce much shallow vanity, but it is a little inexplicable.

Near the administrative building, Eric finally told Michael · Bei Dao: "Emily said that you have won many awards in music MTV and commercial production. I also watched the commercial you just made. It was very hard, so you want You must have enough skills to make a movie. "

Michael · Bei did n’t expect everything to look so easy, and he almost jumped up in excitement, but he immediately realized that Eric had n’t finished his words, and he became calm and continued to listen.

Eric smiled and said, "You must be waiting for" but ", right?"

Michael · Bei grinned, be regarded as agreeable.

Eric said: "Nothing but just one thing. Last year ’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, I spent more than half a year planning it personally. It is my hard work. The foundation has been laid, so the production of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will be much easier this year. I hope you can spend at least three months on this. "

"Mr. Williams, I promise, I will never let you down."

"Call me Eric. It always feels weird to hear people like you older than me call me decently."

Walking into the administrative building and outside his office, Eric's office secretary at the Studio saw him coming back and sent a file bag, saying: "Mr. Williams, this is just sent by Mr. Bruckheimer."

Eric took the file and pushed the door into the office, but did not walk to the desk. Instead, he sat down on the sofa in the reception area, motioned to Michael · Bei, and said, "What do you want to drink, let Gina get it . "

"Coffee, coffee is all right," Michael · Bei just sat down and saw the office secretary looking over, then stood up and said politely.

The female secretary nodded and walked out without asking Eric. Obviously she already knows his personal habits.

Eric opened the file bag, which contained two script "The Rock" and "Bad Boys", handed "Bad Boys" script to Michael · Bei, Eric opened the "The Rock" script and looked at it. Michael · Bei doesn't know what Eric means, but still read script carefully.

After more than ten minutes, Eric glanced at script of "The Rock" and glanced at Michael · Bei. If the big production script in hand can be postponed for one year, it is still good to give it to Michael · Bei, the original Director. But in order to fill next summer, this plan can only be temporarily suspended.

Feeling that Eric stopped, Michael · Bei also raised his head in time, and sorted out the content of script that I just saw. Plan to deal with possible problems of Eric.

Eric pressed the script of "The Rock" on his knee and asked the opposite Michael · Beidao: "How do you like this story?"

Michael · Bei thought that Eric was also looking at the script copy of "Bad Boys" and nodded: "Combining the criminal elements of" Lethal Weapon "and the comedy style of" Beverly Hills Cop ", it is wonderful, and it is definitely a very good production Videos. "

"In this case, let Gina make a copy of this script for you and take it back to study it carefully. After two days, I will let someone contact you to discuss the establishment of the crew."

Michael · Bei heard these words and buzzed in his head to confirm that he had heard them correctly. He still asked in disbelief: "Wei ... Eric, do you mean, let me direct this movie?" ? "

"Yeah, or. Do you think you need to continue to practice in the advertising industry?"

Michael · Bei quickly shook his head, and subconsciously clenched the script in his hand: "No, no no, Eric, I don't need any more ... Experience, I can take this job."

Although I think Eric made this decision rashly, Michael · Bei will never take the initiative to question anything, but resolutely agree.

Eric smiled and said, "That's it, but I have two points to remind you. First, I just said that you need to make three months for Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. So, this video You need to complete it by August. "

With seven months left, Michael · Bei recalled the script plot he just saw, there were not too many big scenes, and no special effects were involved, so he nodded and said: "No problem."

"You must think in my heart. My decision was a bit sloppy, even chaotic, right?"

"No, absolutely not."

"It does n’t matter if you really think so, but the second point, you have to remember that as long as the quality of the movie is complete, the movie ’s schedule will be Thanksgiving. In addition, I, as well as Jerry will Name the producer personally. We all love face, and if it gets messed up, you can just go back and shoot ads. "

Michael · Bei's heart was cold, and the excitement just cooled down completely.

He originally thought that Eric made this decision a little bit of play, but after listening to these words, he realized that the script in his hand is definitely a project that Firefly attaches great importance to, otherwise the two big names Eric and Jerry · Bruckheimer are not Will personally name Producer, will not put the film schedule on the popular Thanksgiving. If the movie is messed up, the media will only rush criticism to the two big names Producer, but his rookie movie Director will not want to mix in Hollywood.

Eric looked at the changing look of Michael · Bei and said, "How is it, how dare you take the job now?"

Michael · Bei wanted to think about a few days, but he realized that this hesitation would only disappoint the young Hollywood tycoon in front of him, but hesitated for a moment and then nodded decisively: "Eric, I am next. "

"Very good," Eric nodded in satisfaction, and said: "There is another point, you can also rest assured that if there is a problem with the film in the future, but the responsibility is not on you, Jerry and I will not anger you, so , You just need to do your best. "

The endorsement makes Michael · Betton, who has a tight heart, relax a lot, and nods quickly.

After half an hour, Michael · Bei left the studio administration building and walked on the boulevard of the studio, feeling the movie script in his hand, the excitement of the opportunity suddenly came to my heart again, the more I wanted happy. Michael · Bei completely ignored the increasing number of pedestrians on the road near the end of work. He shook his fist hard, hey, haha, he took a few steps and jumped up to make a shot, still could not help but grinned, so Leaving the main road and rushing to the lawn in the studio, he pulled out the Motorola mobile phone in his waist, completely regardless of who was on the opposite side, picked a number in the address book and dialed it out, just opposite the vocal sounded, he loudly said: " Hey, man, can you guess what I just encountered, I got script, movie script, I ’m about to make a movie, Eric Williams personally handed it to my script, Eric Williams, the one of "Jurassic Park" , Haha, I will soon ... Uh, ah, sorry, really sorry, no, I do n’t buy insurance, no, I do n’t buy car insurance ... "(Unfinished.)
