Chapter 140 (1/2)

Santa Monica.

In the parking lot outside Denise's headquarters, Simon and Amy get out of the car. Jennifer and Amy's assistant Vanessa also get out of the car and walk into the office building.

Simon is still talking about the movie with Amy: ”I've considered that since CAA has changed its mind temporarily, Robin Williams will forget it. If you give Robert De Niro the script and the outline of my ghost movie, you'd better sign the two movie contracts with him at one time.”

Amy confirmed, ”the sixth sense that Bruce joy Robin is writing?”

When he met Bruce joy Robin, the writer of ghost last time, Simon was reminded by the story of ghost last time. The other ghost movie he thought of was ghost sixth sense, which was a box office hit in 1999. This ingenious plot thriller was second only to ”Star Wars Prequel: the threat of the ghost” at the box office that year, with a global box office of more than 600 million US dollars, even more than ”the ghost”.

Simon nodded and said, ”yes, De Niro must be interested in trying out the roles of teacher and psychologist.”

Amy said with a smile: ”in fact, the first thing I thought of was De Niro. However, in this case, the budget cost of both films will definitely exceed $10 million. ”

Although Simon really hopes to get rid of the dependence on superstars, he also knows that with the current strength of danilisi film, he can not challenge the traditional rules of Hollywood in the short term.

”It's better to surpass than to surpass. In any case, it's the first thing to ensure the quality of the film,” Simon said, remembering another thing. ”Recently, the negotiation between the writers' Union and the producers' Union has broken down again?”

”Yeah, it's going to be a strike again this year,” Amy said, understanding Simon's meaning. ”I'll urge Robert Harlin and Bruce joy Robin to finish the steel Magnolia and scream before the strike.”

Simon listened to Amy's relaxed tone and suddenly realized that the whole Hollywood probably didn't expect the severity of the next strike.

The basic agreement between the film and television producers' Union and the writers' Union is renegotiated every three years. Almost every time there are disputes, but they can be resolved quickly. Except for the first writers' strike lasting 151 days in Hollywood history in 1960, the duration of other strikes was very short. The latest strike in 1985 lasted only 15 days.

However, the Hollywood writers strike in 1988 lasted 155 days.

Simon was originally considering taking advantage of the strike to expand the TV program production business of Denise pictures. Now, with Hollywood's optimistic attitude at this time, if the operation is proper, Denise pictures will definitely get more benefits.

On the second floor, Amy takes Vanessa to her office.

Simon looked at the following Jennifer and noticed that her hair was spreading again today. He remembered that the hairstyle of the female assistant was always changing between shawl and ponytail these days. She looked very struggling. He laughed and joked: ”you, like Amy, are adjusting your hairstyle according to your mood?”

After a long time together, Simon found that Amy Pascal had a little habit of changing her hair with her mood.

Jennifer didn't expect Simon to pay attention to these details. When she thought of Janet's words that night, she suddenly felt that he must have noticed such a hateful thing.

His cheeks began to heat again, and he didn't know how to answer, so he simply lowered his head and pretended not to hear.

Simon saw that the female assistant was silent and didn't ask. He just said with a smile, ”I'd better tie it up. I like the way you tie it up.”

Zap.

Tie it up.

It's like riding a horse.

Asshole, don't even think about it!

With courage, Jennifer looks up and gives Simon a lethargic look, but subconsciously quickens her pace and escapes into her office.

Simon watched as Jennifer closed the office door. He was puzzled. He was just joking. Isn't it so lethal?

When she comes to her office, Susan outside tells Simon that Ms. Bigelow has been waiting for more than ten minutes.

Pushing the door open, Katherine is sitting on the sofa in the reception area and reading a script. Today, the woman is wearing a dark green military uniform jacket, a pair of jeans, and a pair of black high-heeled boots. She looks heroic only when she looks at the profile.

Noting that Catherine was about to stand up, Simon quickly stopped: ”no, just sit down.”

Catherine didn't know, so she stood up.

Then.

The height of a woman is higher than Simon's. with her dress today, Simon has a feeling that you don't have to ask ”I won't tell you if I kill him.”.

Katherine felt Simon's eyes, raised the script in her hand somewhat unnaturally and said, ”do you want to have a look first?”

Simon came over to take the script, his eyes still looked at the woman who had no way to start, and said with a smile, ”can you take off your coat? I'm afraid you'll hit me if you find something wrong with the script later. ”Katherine gave Simon a cross look and sat down again.

Simon went to the couch next to Katherine and sat down. He put the script on his lap and glanced at the title, thunderbolt blue angel. It is Catherine's second cinema feature film in the original time and space after blood corpse night.

It's no surprise that Eric Rhett, the screenwriter of ”Thunderbolt Blue Angel”, is also the screenwriter of Catherine's last ”night of the blood corpse”. In some previous communication, Catherine said that she was working with Eric Rhett to improve the script, but the name of the story was determined recently.

In fact, Simon's biggest feeling after seeing the film in his memory is that he must not let Jamie Lee Curtis play the heroine this time. Simon has a lot of feelings for many neutral female stars, but he always thinks that Jamie Lee Curtis is not neutral, just a man.

As Simon opens the script, the atmosphere in the office quiets down.

Katherine looked at the side face of the little man who was reading the script attentively. After a moment, she reacted and quickly took a sip of coffee on the coffee table. She wanted to mess around the topic and ask him how he was doing.

However.
