Movie Master

"Can you give Frank a peek at the whole blueprint?"

Lance’s question caused Cole to fall into silence, but he also felt it. For such a grand theme, Lance had to come to Frank in person to explain it clearly. This is almost the core concept of the film’s creation. At the same time, it is also the key information needed for the adaptation rights of "Sin City". As a relayer, Cole's role is very limited.

The really effective way is to let Lance and Frank talk face to face. Leaving aside Lance's upside-down work and rest schedule recently, it is not difficult to arrange an evening dinner together, but the problem is how to get Frank to meet before this meeting. Moving, how to play Cole's role in this negotiation - to let him successfully get Lance's brokerage contract, this is what Cole needs to pay attention to.

Therefore, Cole would never utter such weak words as "I will arrange for you to meet Frank". Everything needs to be done by the artist himself, so the meaning of the agent does not exist. So, Cole came up with a compromise method, the most direct way to completely pass the core of Lance's creative thinking to Frank.

"Can you give me the scripts of 'City of God' and 'Borrowing Knife'? I'll try to get Frank to read the scripts."

Before the official meeting between Lance and Frank, Cole still has a lot of work to do, and there are still many places where he can play the role of agent. He will not give up the opportunity to prove himself, and he will not give up promoting this cooperation. Chance.

In fact, "Murder with a Borrowing Knife" is currently being filmed in full swing, but Paramount and the crew are tight-lipped about the script, and they are unwilling to leak any news. Due to the confidentiality of the storyline, even Tom Cruise's latest look has not been leaked. Lance hopes to compress and recompress the expected value, leaving all the shock to the premiere.

Under such circumstances, Cole also understood the difficulty he required, but he still kicked the ball to Lance. Because this is the most effective way to convince Frank—show the blueprint of Lance's trilogy in front of Frank completely, and when Lance and Frank meet, you can skip these explanation stages directly and enter the "Sin City" In the discussion stage of the adaptation concept, I believe that under Cole's foreshadowing, the brainstorming between Lance and Frank will collide with countless sparks, so that the implementation of the adaptation rights will be achieved naturally.

Lance looked at Cole carefully, as if he wanted to see Cole's inner belief through the window of his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, Lance smiled, "Percy will give you what you want."

Cole let out a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, but his expression moved slightly on the surface, because he knew that this task was still far away from success, "Very well, then I should leave, and don't continue to delay the normal work of the crew. Cole spoke without sloppiness. Although being straightforward does not mean that he has no other intentions, at least he is straightforward.

Lance also didn't intend to be courteous with Cole. When it comes to the importance, "killing with a borrowed knife" is the first priority at the moment. Lance stood up immediately, and said with a smile, "Coffee time is for next time." They are potential partners, and the due courtesy should not be missed.

Cole also stood up, shook the mineral water in his hand, "I will choose a high-end French afternoon tea restaurant." The slightly teasing tone made Lance laugh too, and then the two left the RV in file . It only took ten minutes from the beginning to the end, and the efficient conversation saved time for both parties.

After talking about the business, Cole did not leave immediately. He finally came to visit the crew late at night. He decided to stop by to see his actors. If time permits, he would leave after watching a scene. The bond with the artist is very helpful.

Lance didn't intend to lead Cole on a tour of the crew, so he handed Percy over, explained the situation, and then said in a low voice, "Before work starts tomorrow, remember to remind me to call Ian, if I forget , and reminded me repeatedly until I called.” Before the soldiers and horses were mobilized, food and grass were first moved, regardless of whether the adaptation rights of “Sin City” could be won or not, now we need to start preparing funds.

Ian is currently on a business trip on the east coast, and the three-hour time difference has caused it to be in the early hours of the morning there. What's more, Lance has to put in today's work first, so that's why he said this.

Percy didn't ask too much about the reason, but nodded to indicate that he had received the message, and then said, "Tom just came over to ask when the filming can start." Tom is in good condition today, and the overall effect is impressive. Satisfied, so Tom definitely hopes to continue this state.

"You go to Albert and let everyone get ready, and the shooting will start in fifteen minutes." Lance looked around. Just now he thought that Cole's affairs would take a long time, but he didn't expect it to end earlier than expected, but He doesn't plan to start filming right away. Since he let the staff rest, it is more appropriate to advance the rest time later.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a petite figure standing behind the monitor not far away, looking into his head. The corners of Lance's mouth could not help but relax slightly, and then he continued, "By the way, let Tom know."

After the break is over, a series of preparations are required to re-enter the shooting. For example, the simplest touch-up makeup is not only makeup, but also needs to wipe sweat, remove oil, etc., so as to avoid the refraction of the light hitting the cheeks and affecting the lens. ; For another example, clothing and hairstyles, you need to confirm whether they are connected, whether they are damaged, and so on.

After Percy was sure that Lance had finished explaining, he turned around and got busy.

Lance was going to look for Hayden, but from a distance, he saw that petite figure sneaking glances in his direction, if he hadn't seen her walking back and forth in his direction several times Backing away again, Lance almost thought that he was being sentimental.

After lifting his footsteps and turning slightly, Lance walked towards the direction of the monitor, and sure enough, he saw the little girl put her hands behind her back awkwardly, but stayed where she was without moving. When he was almost near the monitor, Lance turned his footsteps again and walked towards Newton who was standing not far away. As a result, seeing Lance's action, Xiao Nizi really panicked and bit down. Lip, ran over directly, rushed in front of Lance, and stopped his footsteps directly.

Emma Stone raised her head and saw the strange yet familiar face without hindrance. Her azure blue eyes were hidden behind the lens, which looked like a calm lake. There was no smile, she always felt that there was a hint of teasing in the shallow arc, which made her cheeks feel a little hot.

She didn't think it through at all just now, but ran over as soon as her brain got hot. Obviously, after stopping Lance, she didn't know what to say. In fact, she originally planned to take the initiative to show affection to Lance, and it was also an apology for turning a blind eye on Wilshire Avenue last time. She even had some expectations because she heard a group of actors discussing there just now, thinking that the scene just now Lance's performance is ingenious, really admirable... But, bathed in Lance's eyes, her brain suddenly short-circuited, and those lively thoughts didn't know how to find a breakthrough.

Emma bit her lower lip in annoyance, complaining to herself from the bottom of her heart, acting like a cowardly lion in the Kingdom of Oz. "What did you say?" The dungeon's voice came from above her head, which startled Emma, ​​raised her head suddenly, and then saw the arc of Lance's mouth slightly raised, and then Emma realized Arrive—she didn't complain in her heart just now, she seemed to say it out loud...

God!

Lance suppressed his smile and said solemnly, "I didn't even see you just now."

This made Emma feel ashamed from the top of her head to the soles of her feet. It was obvious that she had met Lance's eyes several times tonight, and she had bumped into the glass door just now... But Lance said that, obviously he was joking. Emma gritted her teeth for the incident on Wilshire Avenue. Anyway, her image has long since disappeared, and she got used to it after being ashamed, so she directly raised her gaze, looked at Lance, and said loudly Said, "Maybe you were distracted just now."

Does that defend him or hers? Immediately afterwards, Emma saw the smile on the corner of Lance's mouth slightly raised again, "Damn it!" Emma clenched her fists, her cheeks began to heat up slightly, she glanced over her eyes, "I didn't see you just now , "She just opened her eyes and said nonsense, "Because, I...I noticed that there is a thief in your crew."

"Huh?" The style of painting changed so quickly that Lance really didn't react.

Emma caught the surprise in Lance's eyes, and straightened her spine a little, "Yes, I noticed the thief." Emma raised her finger and pointed in the direction of the RV, "There was a man sneaking in just now From the back of the RV, I have been spying on Tom Cruise's team, probably thinking there is something good in the RV."

Lance looked back, he just walked over from the RV with Cole, why didn't he notice?

"I'm not sure if he's a thief, but his behavior is really suspicious." Emma's voice was slightly shaken under Lance's gaze, but her thoughts became clear instead, "Sebastian and I When we came together, I saw that person in the parking lot, wandering around the set, and I thought it was just a drunk, but I didn’t expect to see him in the set.” Actually, Emma was still a little guilty , she was worried, if that man was really a crew member, it would be bad...

Lance's thinking angle is different from Emma's. If that person is a crew member but drunk, this is absolutely not allowed; if it is not a crew member, then the matter is even more serious. Of course, there is another possibility that Emma is wrong.

Lance narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Emma seriously, which made Emma a little flustered. She tried her best to straighten her spine and meet Lance's sight, but her big watery eyes did not hesitate .

After a millisecond of hesitation, Lance retracted his jaw, "I'll go over and check."
