I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 262
[Chapter 257 What to do]
;
“Mr. Jaffe, since a movie from the perspective of ghosts such as “The Island” has been successful, I think a romance film with ghosts as the protagonist must be promising…” The middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties and wore a pair of glasses had not finished speaking when the man he called Mr. Jaffe interrupted the other party’s words: “Okay, Bruce, I know you’ve been promoting that script of yours, but I’m really not interested, I’m working on another movie recently.” The others at the table chimed in: “Bruce , Forget it, don’t you think that a romance with a ghost as the protagonist looks ridiculous, and it’s a tragedy.” “A lot of memorable stories are Tragedy,” Bruce retorted.
“What’s the use of a deep memory,” a brown curly-haired man followed up: “I’ve also heard of your script. It uses a lot of special effects, and the investment will not be less than 20 million US dollars. It’s already considered a mid-to-high level investment, and it’s a big adventure for the producers. Bruce, since you’re interested in ghosts or supernatural phenomena, you should put more effort into writing some horror scripts.
Rather than a romance flick figuring out what ghosts are, like Frightened Island.
When Eric approached, he just heard these words of the brown-haired man, and his heart suddenly moved. ‘Ghost Romance’, ‘Bruce’, With just these two keywords, Eric was already 70% sure that the screenwriter of the tear-jerking “Ghost Story” in his previous life was named Bruce Joy Robin. Besides, it counts. Time, if he hadn’t shown up, the film might have already started production. Although Jonathan Demme is the director of “Island”, at this party. Ke is the one who attracts the most attention, so he just approached the long table where the buffet was placed, and the group of people who were chatting immediately surrounded him. He introduced himself enthusiastically. When Eric collected the business cards handed over by these people, he politely distributed his work cards. Then he pretended to inadvertently asked: “I seem to have heard words like ghosts, what are you talking about? ?
Everyone just didn’t know what topic to look for to have a close relationship with Erica, and when they heard him take the initiative to ask, the middle-aged man who was turned into Mr. Jaffe by Bruce immediately said: “It’s a script, about The story of a murdered bank clerk who turned into a ghost to protect his girlfriend from evil.
Eric remembered the self-introduction of the middle-aged man named Charles Jaffe, who seemed to be a vice president of Paramount, and thought that the other party must have been caught by Barry Jaffe.
It was taught by Diller High’s concept film concept.
In one sentence, the plot of “Human Ghost Love is Over” is summed up.
At the same time, Eric was even more sure of his guess. The middle-aged man with glasses who was squeezed to the periphery of the crowd must be Bruce Joy, the screenwriter of “Ghosts” . Robin.
Although after entering Hollywood, Eric has repeatedly combed and recalled well-known films in the past few years, trying to win the shooting rights of some films as much as possible, but after some investigation , and found that many movie rights have been acquired by big film companies, and some have not been found.
One of the unfinished scripts is “Bruce Joy Robin”. Before this movie, Bruce Joy Robin had no fame in Hollywood. After Eric made some inquiries.
Not even him was found.
In the end, Eric could only decide to take one step at a time, because “Ghost Love” was released in the summer of 1990, according to the general production process of movies in parallel time and space.
This film should have started preparations this year, and the script must have appeared earlier, maybe it appeared before he crossed, so it is impossible for Eric to copy it and use it directly.
Eric did not immediately show any interest in the script, glanced at Bruce Joy Robin inadvertently, and focused on the small talk with the group of people around him.
Don’t look at how enthusiastic the executives of these big companies or well-known producers are to him now, with his experience in making all the movies that sell well, if he dares to show his interest in the script of “A Ghost Story” on the spot , then these people will definitely turn their faces and join the ranks of snatching the script.
Chatted for a while.
Eric was separated from these people, and he did not have any communication with Bruce Joy Robin from the beginning to the end.
Now that the other party has appeared, it will be much easier to find this person later.
But many things are always unexpected.
Just as he walked away, Bruce Joy Robin chased after three or two steps: “Mr. Williams…” The red-haired middle-aged man who had been beaten saw his move and said to Charles Jaffe with a smile: “It seems that Bruce is still not reconciled, so he went to pester Williams again.” ; Charles Jaffe took a deep look at the back of the middle-aged man chasing Eric, and said, “Brian, do you think Williams will like that script?” ” Who knows, but in Eric Williams’ eyes, if you see that script…” The red-haired middle-aged man named Brian stopped immediately after speaking with Charles Jaffe. They looked at each other and then parted as if nothing had happened.
The two just nodded, and Charles.
Jaffe is the vice president of Paramount, and he works at Warner Bros.
If Eric determines the potential of this script and competes, the two will definitely be rivals.
Hearing the conversation between Charles and Brian, several people around turned their attention to Eric’s direction.
Eric is also having a headache now. Bruce Joy Robin has already started to narrate the plot of “The Ghost Story”, what can he do now?
Pretend to ignore it?
After that party, he would let people come to the door with enthusiasm. Bruce Joy Robin is not a fool, but it will be more troublesome then.
Severely reprimanded the script?
It is estimated that there may not even be opportunities for cooperation.
The first two methods cannot be used, and if he expresses interest in this script on the spot… Ke couldn’t help looking around. Many people had already turned their attention to them, especially those who had just chatted.
These people are all human beings. As long as he dares to reveal his thoughts, he will fight after the event. Among the wolves, tigers and leopards, the firefly can only be regarded as a thin and thin at most. hyena.
