Eric did not consider the thoughts of the two people. Quentin and Lawrence did not immediately agree, and he stopped talking about this topic. Anyway, as long as the cooperation is happy, Firefly is definitely the preferred partner of the Quentin. After looking at the watch, Eric went on to say: "Let's put it down in advance, time is running out, let's talk about script, I can invest in this movie, and the budget is not limited to 1 million USD, you two can Shoot as much as you want. "
Quentin and Lawrence were a little hesitant about Eric ’s invitation to join Firefly, but when they saw each other so easily, they skipped it, and the two lost at the same time, keenly feeling that they missed a rare opportunity, regret Just did not immediately agree to come down. This sentiment did not even allow the two people to immediately reflect what was supposed to come from Eric. It was not until Eric was finished that they raised their heads and stared at the two people. Lawrence took the lead to react and confirmed with joy, "Eric, you mean Really? "
Quentin also reacted at this time, looking at Eric with a surprised face.
Eric nodded again: "Of course it is true, but I have several conditions."
The two of them suddenly showed such an expression, and they were relieved at the same time. If Eric came up and was soliciting and promising to invest, but there were no strings attached, then hell. The two people only hope that Eric will not interfere too much in the production of the film.
"First of all, the Actor of the movie must be selected from the uta Brokerage Firm, do you know uta?" Finally, Eric asked indefinitely, he paid little attention to the operation of uta during this time, only occasionally with Kapoor · Sid has a few phone calls. I only know that the situation of Brokerage Firm is very good. The others are not very clear. Because of his growing reputation, in order to avoid suspicion, he rarely intervened in the management of uta. It's not that the media did not challenge the uta monopoly, but it didn't turn up any storms. In fact, the anti-monopoly law of North America is not as strict as imagined. Take the Film Studio regulation that was unable to operate the cinema line vertically because of the Paramount bill a few decades ago, this decree now applies to the big Film Studio There is no more binding force. Although it ca n’t be said that it is fake, the North America cinema line is only on the bright side. The number of theater screens owned by several major Film Studios has exceeded one-tenth of the total number of screens, and was selected by the big Film Studio. The theaters, lots and the like are definitely the best. This one-tenth of the theater is the essence of almost all the movie theaters of North America, and the theater controlled by the big Film Studio in secret is bigger. The result of closing one eye, because the Paramount Act that year cut off the monopoly of the big Film Studio, but also caused a great blow to Hollywood Film Industry. Now the Hollywood movie is developing rapidly, and the scale of profits is also increasing. It has even caused a huge influence in the world. Under this excellent situation, the big Film Studio will expand its tentacles. If there is no strong force to intervene, the Federal Government will not Will be stupid enough to make another fight to break the good situation.
Hearing Eric ’s inquiry, Lawrence Bender quickly nodded and said: "Of course, of course I know." After talking Lawrence and the dead party, they looked at each other and said, "This condition is fine."
"Another thing is that script also needs to make some changes ..." After Eric finished, Quentin immediately showed an unpleasant look, but did not dare to show it too clearly. Eric just smiled a little: "Relax, I am very satisfied with the content, but the name of "Colorful Robber" is too weird. I thought of another good name. "
At the same time when Quentin was relieved, Lawrence was greatly relieved. If Eric was going to slam the knife against script, Lawrence was very worried that the buddy would jump out and oppose it, disturbing the cooperation, and Eric only proposed amendments. The name of the movie is not unacceptable.
Eric lowered his head and took the pen to write two words directly on script and handed it to the opposite side.
Quentin and Lawrence put their heads together, and they said out loudly, "Reservoir Dogs (rservoir-dogs)?"
"Yes," Reservoir Dogs "," Eric gave a slightly mischievous smile: "I think this name is very appropriate to the plot. All the characters in the story are in my opinion Reservoir Dogs, aren't they? "
This time Lawrence · Bender looked at Quentin. Quentin stretched his index finger and scratched his wide forehead a few times. After a little tangle, he barely nodded: "Well, just call it" Reservoir Dogs "." In fact, he also felt that the name was much better than the original one. However, as the author of script, the name of the movie was directly modified by the young man on the opposite side, and it was quite depressed.
"Another point, I think seven robbers are a little bit more, six are good, I watched script, three of them died directly, and so it made the plot several more episodes. I look a bit Excess dialogue, of course, here I just give a suggestion, I am willing to modify it with you. "Eric said, this small suggestion was only his temporary idea, completely out of the desire to make this classic B movie more in line with the previous life version Evil taste, if Quentin is not willing to modify, it is actually nothing. The highlight of this script lies in the non-linear narrative structure.
If you straighten everything up, this would be a very boring thing: a gang boss called in several code-named robbers and robbed diamonds in a jewelry store, but was betrayed by the undercover and surrounded by police. He died first in the shootout A few, the survivors fled into the warehouse, launched a series of confrontations, and finally there was internal strife, and everyone died together.
That's all.
The advantage of the film is that it can use a variety of narrative methods to show a mediocre company to the extreme in a very interesting way.
"I will consider," Quentin nodded when he saw that Eric was indeed a proposal, although the first reaction in his heart was not changed, but he did not specifically refuse. As for the final result, he decided to go back and discuss with the dead party discuss.
"So, I have no problem here." Eric leaned back comfortably on the chair and looked at the two of them: "Do you have any questions?"
Quentin pulled script over and pressed down his hand before asking: "Eric, about ... about the movie Director?"
Eric smiled and shrugged: "Since I have agreed to invest, I am sure that I have agreed to your previous conditions. I will not intervene in the content of this movie. You can let it go and the editing rights will ultimately belong to you. "He did n’t expect anything from this TV on Box Office. The memory of this movie is very famous, but he did n’t get any amazing Box Office, but he won a few good Actor, Eric is also the most fancy This is the point, as long as "Reservoir Dogs" is all enabled by uta's Actor, even if only some fame is gained in the end, and the cost is not recovered, it is worthwhile for Eric.
