The famous track of Charlize Theron's original time and space is very typical.
The South African girls without roots and bases, like many young boys and girls with star dreams, went to the city of angels and spent two years in Hollywood. The thriller "2 Days in the Valley" imitating Quentin Tarantino "Pulp Fiction" caught the attention of the circle. With the recognition of acting and appearance, he began to take the role of vase in various types of films, and after several years of hard work, he became a quasi-first-line actress.
Subsequently, relying on the large-scale performance of the self-destructive image in 《Monster》, he won the Oscar film throne in one fell swoop and successfully advanced to the first-line actress. Then he began to get the invitation of mainstream Film Studio commercial blockbuster Heroine such as "Hancock" and "Snow White and the Huntsman".
Of course, luck is also a big component in the whole process. The reason why Charlize Theron was able to become the first-line actress of Hollywood and won the title of "South African diamond", in addition to acting and appearance, the most important thing is that she has never or failed to go the wrong way. Eric remembers that Charlize Theron had participated in the audition of Paul Van Hoven's "Showgirls" Heroine at the early stage of his debut. The "lucky" one was the last one who lost the election and got the role of Elizabeth. Berkeley, Originally, the development in Hollywood was pretty good, but after the movie was released, because of the bad reviews of the film, the acting career was ruined. Even if not to say, even manager abandoned her.
After several people introduced each other, they sat down at the dining table and Michelle Simmons relaxed, and at the same time had to mention the spirit. She originally thought that Eric planned to have lunch with Charlize Theron alone, so she put all her thoughts on Charlize On her body, she didn't make much preparations for the meeting. She didn't expect that the assistant of Eric just said that Eric let her come with Charlize. She didn't even think that there was Nicole Kidman beside Eric.
The waitress handed over the menu, but Eric just put it aside and ignored Charlize Theron. Instead, he first said to Michelle Simmons: "Michelle. Are you and Kapoor good friends?"
"Yes, Mr. Williams, Kapoor, and his wife Mary are university classmates. I have known each other for almost two decades now."
"No wonder," Eric said with a smile, and looked at the woman with short hair in a suit, and did not continue to explore the relationship between the other party and Kapoor: "Kapoor said that your previous work center has been in the TV business, why suddenly Want to switch to the movie manager? "
"I think my personal development in the TV business has entered a bottleneck. So I just want to try it on the movie," Michelle Simmons replied.
Nicole helped Eric to order lunch with himself, and whispered to Eric with a list: "Eric, can you see these?" ‘
Michelle Simmons saw Eric close to Nicole without concealing her intimacy, and quickly took advantage of this gap to order her lunch to the waiter. Charlize Theron sitting beside her also reported the same as manager. Dish name.
Looking at the opposite, they whispered and discussed, I do n’t know what Eric said, Nicole also gave a soft laugh, hit it on Eric, Charlize Theron produced a faint envy and neglected unwillingness . But he dare not show anything strange.
"Okay, that ’s all, work in the afternoon, no wine, no juice," Eric said at last, before turning his eyes to this side again, continuing to Michelle Simmons: "You should have A lot of TV series Actor? "
Michelle Simmons replied: "Yes, Walter Nagins ’s actor Mitte Peck in X-Files is my client, and I have seven other clients. They all starred in different TV series Important role. "
Walter Nagins ’s status in the "X Archives" is an assistant to the Director of the Investigation Bureau. He once lived and died with the two protagonists. Although this role only appeared in the second season of "X Archives", it was planned to appear. The episode number is second only to the big supporting role of the two protagonists. It is also a key factor to start playing in the second season. It is often more difficult to get such an important role in a TV series that has proved its ratings, than the protagonists in the new Fanmei dramas. Of course, Michelle Simmons said that it is impossible to show off. It is more out of an idea of closer relationship with Eric. After all, Eric is the creator of the "X file" series, but it also proves the excellent ability of Michelle Simmons.
"Development to the movie manager is indeed a good choice, but should n’t it be so easy to think about both sides?"
"I will arrange it." Michelle Simmons said confidently, and she has already made sure to pay attention. If everything goes well on Hollywood, she will transfer her customers to other manager brands. This choice is still very much. Easy to do.
The waitress quickly brought up the lunch. The words of a few people were less. However, Michelle Simmons found that Eric was talking to himself most of the time, and did not say too much with Charlize Theron. She felt a little uneasy, you know, she came to sell her customers this time.
Having lunch and changing to coffee, Eric looked at his watch and said to the Nicole beside him: "Nicole, you can take Miss Theron around the park. Let me talk to Michelle separately." /
Charlize Theron heard this sentence is both lost and somewhat inexplicable, but Michelle Simmons has recovered at this time, Eric has been asking about his work status before, it should be to test his work ability, he has now sent Opening the other two, there must be more important cooperation to discuss with yourself.
Nicole did n’t quite understand why Eric suddenly said that, but still got up very obediently, and held Charlize Theron cordially: "Charlie, let ’s go, I ’ll take you to the park, maybe you will come often Here it is. "
Charlize Theron only smiled obediently, followed Nicole obediently out of the restaurant, and when he reached the door, he couldn't help but stop and looked back.
Nicole looked at the girl with a little baby fat on her face, patted her on the shoulder, and said softly: "Relax, you shouldn't run away in vain."
"Ah, I'm just ..." Charlize Theron looked at Nicole's expression and panicked to explain. The export turned into a question: "Miss Kidman, really?"
"You went back to just knows," Nicole replied with a smile, and then ignored the clumsy temptations of Charlize Theron. Like a hostess, she took her around in the studio. These days, she basically stayed in the studio with Eric during the day. She is also more familiar with this film and television base that is larger than Universal Burbank. The more you understand, the more you can appreciate the strong strength that Firefly Pictures has accumulated in just a few years.
......
After the two of Nicole left. Eric handed over to Michelle Simmons the sketch that had been hurriedly prepared before the meal, and said: "You must have heard some news from Kapoor. This is a conceptual sketch I drew before you came."
Michelle Simmons took over and saw the silhouettes of the three women drawn on the paper with pencils. Although the sketch was very scribbled, she could immediately feel the heroism of the three women.
"ABCTV Station launched a TV series named" Charlie's Angels "in 1976, because the wave of feminism that it promoted was very popular in those years. I do n’t know if you have seen it?"
Michelle Simmons nodded and said: "I have seen some, and I also liked this TV series at that time."
"This is the best. I have already bought the film adaptation rights of this TV series. The plan is to change to a female action film series with a style similar to the 007 series," Eric said, pointing to where Charlize Theron had just sat: "Charlize can be counted as one. At present, I still lack two Heroine."
Michelle Simmons was a little moved but was not too sure, and asked: "Mr. Williams, you mean, let me ... look for two more Heroine for this movie?"
"Yes, because it is a brand new series. I hope to be able to start a newcomer, the age is equivalent to Charlize Theron, but their acting skills must also be good enough." Eric said, extending two fingers: "Two months , Are you willing to take this job? "
Michelle Simmons hesitated for a moment, which was definitely a good opportunity for her, but it was not easy to find Actress, which is both a newcomer's acting skill and good enough, and was silent for a moment. Michelle Simmons seemed to think of something, and he asked tentatively, "Mr. Williams, do you think so? At North America, it's not easy to find girls who meet your requirements, but I can go to Europe and try to find some already in Europe The budding, but there is no influential Actress in North America, so that you can judge their acting skills based on the works, and basically meet your requirements. "
Eric thought a little, then nodded and said: "Yes, this is indeed a good idea, just follow your method."
"So, Mr. Williams, are there any other requirements besides this?"
Eric thought for a while, and felt that there was no need to imitate the actresses of different ethnicities in order to please different ethnic groups in original, saying: "In addition to being beautiful, I hope they have their own characteristics, because I think What I want to build is not the three silly white and sweet vase actresses in the TV series version, but a female agent movie with a distinctive protagonist character. In my conception, they have different pasts and have their own skills. , Has a distinct personality. Another point is that after signing, they will first receive at least three months of physical training, you can tell them in advance, the training will be very strict, if you ca n’t suffer, it ’s best not to Join. "
Michelle Simmons smiled and said: "I don't think any girl will be stupid enough to quit your movie at Mr. Williams."
Eric shakes his head: "I have no plans to direct this series, but I will participate in the preparation of script."
"At Hollywood, who does n’t know that as long as it ’s a movie you participate in, it ’s your movie, whether you direct it yourself or not."
"Thank you for your compliment, Michelle," Eric said with a smile.
"This is definitely not a compliment, but a fact."
"Okay," Eric smiled on his face, raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "So, come here today, I still have work in the afternoon."
The two stood up and Eric reached out to Michelle Simmons again: "Happy cooperation."
Michelle Simmons reached out with a smile: "Happy cooperation."
......
"I ca n’t take you in these two studios. This is currently the most advanced virtual digital studio in Hollywood. It is specially used for shoots in special effects scenes. The cost of this studio alone exceeds 20 million USD, which is one more expensive than ordinary studios. Times, the equipment inside is more expensive, and many of them are specially developed in the digital field, which can not be seen on the market at all, "Nicole pointed his finger at a doorway next to a specially equipped security studio, and some were proud of Charlize Theron. Introduced, as he was talking, the handbag hanging around his elbow buzzed and quickly took out his mobile phone to connect.
After a few words, Nicole said to Charlize Theron: "They are finished, let's go back."
The Charlize Theron, who had already begun to be absent-minded, heard this sentence and immediately got up and followed Nicole towards the administrative district.
After saying goodbye, Eric specially sent a battery car to send the two women out of the cinema, and then walked to the later center together with Nicole.
"What did you talk about?" Nicole finally couldn't hold back, and asked quickly with curiosity.
Eric said: "Is n’t 《Charlie's Angels》 ’s Heroine three? I ’ve given Michelle Simmons the task of finding the other two angels."
Nicole said in surprise: "Then you are not afraid that the movie will be hot in the future. Does she use three Heroine to threaten Firefly with a higher price?"
Eric said without any worries: "You should also be able to see that this is a very smart woman and would not do such a stupid thing that lacks vision, and if the three Heroines belong to different manager or Brokerage Firm, Once the movie is successful, the negotiation of the sequel is more troublesome. Of course, I will let Firefly prepare a contract in advance, at least to ensure that within the trilogy, Heroine will not make too much cheap trick. "
Nicole asked: "Do n’t you say you want to imitate the 007 series, after that trilogy?"
"In such a big production series, the trilogy will take at least five or six years. Who knows what will happen then, the big series will be restarted, and it ’s better to change to Heroine, and 007 has also changed a lot of leading actors. . "(To be continued.)
