I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 91

[Chapter 89 Lucky attribute is very high]
Virginia couldn’t understand what Eric was saying at all, and asked back in doubt: “No. 10880, Malibu?”
Eric nodded, and did not explain in detail, and it was impossible to explain it to the girl.
Eric was impressed by Tony Stark’s super ocean view mansion in Malibu in his previous life, “Iron Man 3”.
Later, like many movie fans, he checked the information of this mansion on the Internet, but found that it turned out to be a full CG model made by the film company on the basis of the original site in Malibu.
Later, it was said that the mansion really existed, but the address was in San Diego, California, and the owner also listed it for sale.
The onlookers quickly realized that it was just a hype, and the one in San Diego was indeed a nice sea view villa.
But compared with the movie, it is obviously the difference between a wild duck and a white swan.
The more fanciful New York Stark Building is unlikely to be realized. New York is now a pit of carrots, but Iron Man’s Malibu mansion is within Eric’s ability.
It’s nothing more than a question of money. For Eric now, the question of money is not a problem at all.
It is expected that the movie “Fengyue” will bring him hundreds of millions of dollars in income. Such a large amount of money is enough to build a hundred villas in Malibu.
Turning his head and looking at the fragrant girl who was still lying on his shoulders, Eric smiled and reached out to stroke Virginia’s plump flesh, feeling the soft flesh in his palm: “Vicky, go and make me some breakfast. , I’ve been busy all night, I’m so hungry.”
Virginia gave Eric a charming glance: “I’m here, do you still need breakfast?”
“Go, prepare a bread and omelette, and then take one by yourself. An apple is lying on the table, and I’ll eat you later.”
“As you wish, Your Highness.” Virginia smiled and stretched her head, wanting to kiss Eric’s mouth.
Just as the red lips came together, Eric suddenly thought of something, and suddenly tilted to the side: “No.”
With a bang, the whole person fell to the ground with the chair, and the stack of paper fixed by the paper clip on his knee was also torn apart. Come on, scattered all over the place.
Virginia quickly helped Eric up and slapped the dust on him: “What’s the matter with you, your reaction is so big?”
Eric pointed to Virginia’s small mouth: “You ate that last night, haven’t you brushed your teeth yet?”
Virginia immediately understood, and glared at Eric angrily: “You are so nasty. , for forcing me to eat such disgusting things, I hate it myself.”
“Tiger poison does not eat children!” Eric smiled and picked up the paper on the ground together with Virginia, sorted it out, and pinned it with a paper clip.
After rushing the girl to prepare breakfast, Eric sat down again.
The order of the more than ten pages of manuscripts was obviously disrupted. Eric flipped through to mark the order, and inadvertently glanced at the two letters on the top of a page, Steel-Magnolias.
“Steel Magnolia”!
Eric quickly sorted out the order of the manuscript and read it from the first page.
Although it was just an audition clip, not a complete script, and there was no information on the screenwriter and director, Eric still used these footage to determine that this was the “Steel Magnolia” he was looking for.
The footage on the manuscript is clearly the timid hairstylist Anel.
“The lucky attribute point is really high enough, maybe you should try your luck in Las Vegas!” Eric mumbled with a smile, since this script appeared in Virginia’s bedroom, the audition should be The latest thing, I hope the role hasn’t settled down yet.
Walking downstairs with the script in hand, Virginia has changed into a set of home clothes and is busy in the kitchen wearing an apron.
Noticing that Eric appeared behind her, Virginia turned her head and smiled at him: “Eric, it will be soon.”
Eric raised the script in his hand and asked, “Vicky, this movie When did you audition?”
Virginia flipped over the sizzling eggs in the frying pan with a shovel and quickly turned her head to look: “You mean ‘Steel Magnolia’? Tried it on Friday Mirror, um, the day before yesterday.”
“Can you tell me about this movie, how much do you know?”
Virginia shoveled out the fried egg, turned off the fire, and said, “Okay, Eric, let’s go to the restaurant Let’s talk.”
Eric nodded and helped the girl bring breakfast into the dining room.
Virginia poured Eric a glass of milk and said: “My agent recommended this movie script to me, and the director is Herbert Ross. I heard that Samsung was going to invest because it started a In the acquisition negotiations of Sony in Japan, they were worried that the failure of the production and distribution of the film would lead to a drop in the stock price. Many unpopular film projects of Columbia Samsung Pictures were suspended. Herbert Ross had no choice but to invest in an independent production. Not many, I just got the chance to audition.”
Because of Eric’s promise last night, Virginia was no longer disappointed that she didn’t get the role of Annel, her tone was very flat, as if she was talking about family: “It’s a pity that He Burt Ross thinks I…I’m too old for the role, so I failed the audition.”
Speaking of her age, the girl had another worry, looked up at Eric, she immediately At the age of ten, it is impossible to withstand the wasting of several years.
The eating action of Eric on the opposite side was much slower, and he quickly calculated in his mind that since Samsung gave up the movie, maybe this project could be pulled over.
If Firefly wants to grow, it’s impossible to keep making Eric’s movies all the time.
It is necessary to invest in more projects, and “Steel Magnolia” may be a good attempt.

Of course, Firefly will definitely have to slowly establish its own distribution channels. In the previous life, DreamWorks had to hand over the film to the six major universities for distribution because there was no perfect distribution channel, resulting in most of the interests being lost. Divided by the giants, DreamWorks sold many movies, but the book has been losing money, and finally had to sell to Viacom.
In fact, DreamWorks also has its own distribution capabilities, but many of the movies produced by Spielberg are large-scale productions. A billion dollars is fine.
That’s why Eric hasn’t considered releasing his own movie for the time being.
He willingly gave nearly half of the profits to Fox, because only the publicity ability of a giant like Fox is enough to fully release the box office potential of a movie that could have been a big hit.
If he releases it himself, even if he gets exactly the same number of screens as Fox, it is impossible to achieve the same high box office.
There are so many things involved, it’s hard to tell for a while.
Gradually, Eric clarified the development ideas that Firefly should have. While handing over the movies he made to the giants to make money, he invested heavily in some small-budget movies with a budget of several million, and used these movies as ‘cannon fodder’. Accumulate resources and experience slowly.
When it develops to a certain level, it is logical to release your own film.
It seems that the Weinstein brothers took the road of starting at a low cost. They have been playing the high-end DreamWorks ups and downs and sold them. The Weinstein brothers have been very nourishing in their childhood, even if they lost Miramax, The newly formed Weinstein Films still has a place in Hollywood.
