"Hello, Mr. Steinberg. Bayi Chinese ≧ \u003c\u003c≤"

In the temporary reception room of Studio No. 3, Jessica Alba greeted Erica Steinberg who had just come over under the sign of her agent. She was about to sit down when footsteps came from the door , the director who had met several times walked in.

I have met a few times before, and I can be regarded as an acquaintance, and Jessica Alba heard from her agent that due to the success of the first two films, Murphy Stanton has a heavyweight say in casting.

"Hi, Murphy." She smiled sweetly, "We meet again."

"Hello, Jesse." Murphy nodded to her with a smile, and sat next to Erica Steinberg, who was opposite her and her agent, "Nice to see you again."

Seeing Murphy's smile and hearing this familiar greeting, Jessica Alba smiled even sweeter.

The audition a few days ago went very smoothly, and Murphy Stanton, who presided over the audition, was also very satisfied with her image and performance. Jessica Alba thought that the role must be her own, but she did not expect it to be in the brokerage negotiation There was an accident.

She looked at Murphy. From the first meeting with him, to the chat at the party night, and then to the contact during the audition, the attitude of the other party was very good, and he seemed to appreciate her very much. Those excessive conditions in the negotiation should not be him. idea.

Thinking of this, Jessica Alba turned her head and glanced at Erica Steinberg. These Jews always like to mess around and suppress black and Latin actors.

Jessica Alba looked at Murphy again, thinking of the pleasant time before, "He should be my supporter?"

"We have no objection to the remuneration negotiated previously,"

Erica Steinberg was undoubtedly in charge of the negotiation. He was the first to speak, "However, Miss Alba's request for an independent dressing room, one-on-one makeup artist and special car transfers is unacceptable due to the limited budget of the crew."

Hearing this, Jessica Alba gradually put away the smile on her face, but she didn't speak. This kind of negotiation itself is a place for managers to play, and these so-called conditions are also to increase bargaining chips, and not It is not necessary.

"Others can be canceled," her manager said, "but Ms. Alba is not good at driving, so the crew still needs to provide a special car."

The other party made a concession, Erica Steinberg hesitated,

Nodded, "We can rent a car for Miss Alba."

These are small issues, and the differences are easy to resolve. After negotiating these trivialities, Erica Steinberg turned to the most disagreeable issues of the roles and the scale of the actors' performances.

"The film adaptation will strictly follow the style and setting of the comics," Erica Steinberg said blankly. "There are many nude scenes of Nancy in the comics, and the crew hopes to reproduce these scenes."

"Sorry," the agent immediately refused, "Miss Alba won't play any roles that may be revealing, and this is also inconsistent with Miss Alba's own positioning."

Erica Steinberg glanced at Murphy and shook his head, "Our negotiations seem to be unable to reach a consensus."

Hearing this, Jessica Alba suddenly interjected, "Can I say a few words."

Erica Steinberg nodded, and Murphy gestured please.

"I've read the original comics, and I've studied all the scenes related to Nancy," Jessica Alba said in a crisp voice, which sounded quite melodious and charming. "Those scenes are all naked for the sake of being naked, not necessary for the plot."

She looked at Murphy specifically, "Even if there is no nudity, it won't affect the plot, will it?"

Murphy smiled and said slowly, "It really won't affect the plot."

Jessica Alba showed a very sweet and charming smile to Murphy, it seems that he really supports himself.

Seeing this unusually charming smile, Murphy said, "But it will affect the audience's interest in watching the movie."

No one can deny that in R-rated movies, some well-set nude scenes of beauties can really touch the nerves of male audiences.

Nancy was originally a ****, and the nudity was not for the sake of nudity, which was completely in line with the identity and setting of the character.

He... he actually said that? Jessica Alba never expected that such words would come out of Murphy's mouth.

She always thought it was a request from the producer or Frank Miller, but now it seems that is not the case at all.

In an instant, Jessica Alba realized that she had entered a misunderstanding. She only saw that the other party seemed to be getting along well with her, but she ignored that if there was no director's insistence, how could Erica Steinberg negotiate? Hao did not let go.

Sure enough, the young director opposite said, "Miss Alba, I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible."

Jessica Alba hesitated, but said, "I refuse to do any nudity."

Murphy spread his hands, stopped looking at her, and turned to Erica Steinberg and said, "Contact Sofia Vergara's agent as soon as possible."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, no longer bothered about Jessica Alba and her manager, turned around and walked out of the temporary reception room.

If possible, Murphy also wants to use Jessica Alba. Her appearance is very good, but she can't accept ****. I can only say sorry. A beautiful girl with just the right **** is very good The publicity and hype points, especially the dVds that will be launched in the later stage, without large-scale dramas, will also lack a selling point.

Although this is not a film he invested in, not to mention the sharing agreement signed, the higher the future box office of the film and the better the DVD sales, the more beneficial it will be for him as a director.

With no hope of winning heavyweight awards in the short term, commercial achievements are the best way to improve one's status in Hollywood.

As for the Sofia Vergara he mentioned, she is less famous than Jessica Alba. She is also an actress of Latin descent. She is not as sweet as Jessica Alba, but her figure is equally sexy and hot. , the previous audition was also good.

If it weren't for the preconceived impression, Murphy might like her more.

As long as there is not much difference in appearance, there is not much difference in who is used for this kind of character. In the comics, Nancy is a ****. Apart from being the key character who promotes the plot, like other female characters, she is also ruled by Frank- Miller uses large-scale pictures to attract readers.

Murphy talked to Frank Miller before, and he also admitted this, otherwise why are there so many sexy female characters wearing s.m leather suits and holding ropes or whips in comics?

As Murphy concluded, comics share some commonalities with movies in some respects, such as the "fist" representing violence and the "pillow" representing large scale, which are the selling points that attract people to watch.

Of course, if Jessica Alba has super charisma or excellent acting skills, Murphy can also consider it, but even Jessica Alba at her peak does not have these.

It seems that Jessica Alba is trying to go all the way in the style of the sweet sister... Murphy can easily guess why Jessica Alba is so insisting on not acting in ****, which is the same as It has nothing to do with moral concepts or anything, but it does not match her own and future positioning.

It is a big taboo to follow the sunny and pure sweet sister line and play a large-scale pornographic actress.

To put it bluntly, her positioning for the present and the future is a youth idol.

It's a pity that such a line has too many limitations, and the shelf life is extremely short. Even a pure vase that only shows off coquettishness is longer than the shelf life of a youth idol.

Back in the office, Murphy was still sighing secretly. Such an excellent vase will get narrower and narrower in a few years, and finally go to some small productions to make soy sauce.

This is simply a waste.

Having seen Jessica Alba herself and the last audition with makeup on, Murphy has to admit that the talent of this actress is as good as it gets, as long as the opportunity is right, she doesn’t need to have outstanding acting skills at all. Being popular is not at all. question.

If it can appear in some mainstream commercial masterpieces, it is not impossible to replace Megan Fox in the future and become the number one big vase in the universe.

But if you want to do this, you have to be like Megan Fox, you have to be coquettish, try your best to be coquettish in the camera, and you don’t mind acting in some large-scale dramas.

Of course, this also requires a director or producer who knows how to magnify all the advantages of vase actresses like Michael Bay.

The phone rang suddenly, interrupting Murphy's thoughts. He picked it up and took a look. It was Paul Wilson. He picked it up and pressed the answer button.

"Boss, Miss Alba would like to speak to you in private."

Have you changed your mind? Murphy thinks it may not be too big. Now Jessica Alba's career is on the rise. It is said that with the help of James Cameron, it is far from the point where she can't find a suitable role.

Murphy thought for a while, "Let her come to my office."

After hanging up the phone and waiting for a few minutes, there was a knock on the door. Murphy said please come in, and Jessica Alba pushed the door open and walked in.

"Please sit down," Murphy pointed to the chair across the desk, "Is there anything else, Jesse?"

He smiled and greeted familiarly, as if it was his friend who came over.

But Jessica Alba no longer sees it this way. From the firm and resolute attitude of the other party during the negotiation in the reception room, she faintly sees the shadow of James Cameron's uncompromising words.

The difference is that James Cameron's face tells the crew that I am a tyrant on the set; while the other party always wears a sunny smile similar to himself, and the other side is completely hidden underneath.

After the negotiation was over, she did not leave immediately, instead she called away the agent, wanting to have another private talk with Murphy, from getting Max in "The Last Days" from a group of competitors, to getting Deus The heroine of "The Night of Love", sometimes as long as she fights for it again, the opportunity that seems to be gone may turn around.

And this role is good for her transformation!

She was indeed taken care of by James Cameron, but didn't she rely on herself to win the opportunities in the past? (To be continued.)
