Best Movie Star

Sitting on one side of the conference table, Justin Lin looked at the four people on the opposite side. For this director's position, he not only carefully studied the success or failure of the script and the series trilogy, but also found the success and failure of the first part of "The Fast and the Furious". The reason for the failure of "Tokyo Drift" also specifically understands the power structure of the project and the characteristics of decision-makers, and knows that the fourth part of the plan, from promotion to decision-making, is still Matthew Horner.

This is also one of the reasons why he is keeping an eye on this project. He feels that there are lessons from the failure of "Tokyo Drift". If he directs a new work of the same theme, he can avoid a lot of risks, and Matthew Horner chooses this series. It proves that the "Fast and Furious" series definitely has a lot of potential to be tapped.

Who doesn't know that Matthew Horner's favorite works have been successful without exception? In the past, he was only a starring actor, and now he has invested tens of millions of dollars in direct investment. He must have a better grasp to do so.

From the moment he got the news and met Matthew Horner and David Ellison for the first time, Justin Lin was preparing to be the director of the new Fast and Furious movie, and the best way to do it.

"I know, I screwed up 'Tokyo Drift'..." Justin Lin said sincerely to the four people including Matthew and Bearded Jack, "The first 'Fast and Furious' is the best in the series. , and then one is not as good as one. The last "Tokyo Drift" failed both in word of mouth and at the box office."

Matthew folded his hands on the conference table and looked at Justin Lin across from him. Not to mention other aspects, only a director who dared to admit defeat could regain his success.

If even recognized failures are considered successes, such directors can only live in their own world, and are not suitable for shooting mass-type films such as large-scale commercial films.

Justin-Lin continued, "After the release of Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift, I heard all the criticism, I was happy to accept the criticism, and there are some problems for me to make this type of film for the first time. …”

He paused for a while and said slowly, "This time I think the story should be related to the previous one, and the audience should also be interested in where the protagonist of the previous two episodes is going, so the story of the fourth part of "The Fast and the Furious" is important After the second part, the story will also develop according to the relationship between the characters set in the first two parts, I believe that the previous movie fans will feel very cordial."

Bearded Jack suddenly interjected, "You should have read the script, right? We're going to let Dominic Toretto die."

"It's totally fine! I've thought about how to deal with it, and I went to the DVD rental store to ask the views of many fans who rented this series." Justin Lin obviously did a lot of preparation work, "Dominic Toretto is only in It has appeared in the first part, and it has been six or seven years since the audience has ignored him. In contrast, Brian O'Connor left the audience with a more impressive impression. They don’t really care about coming back, they care more about seeing more exciting drag racing and hotter action scenes.”

He smiled and said, "So, for this part, my goal is only two words: faster and stronger. At the beginning of the planning of this part, the first thing we have to prepare is how to make the car The bridge section is more speedy and more thrilling, so we have to design a variety of racing scenes, and test the feasibility of shooting again and again... In addition, I want to make a statement about the previous story in this part. A summary, and the audience also needs an answer."

Matthew kept looking at Justin Lin and felt that what this guy said seemed quite reliable.

"We told the audience about Toretto's fate, so as to lead to new characters, and this is the answer." Justin Lin is quite sober, "The return of Paul Walker and Jordana Brewster is enough to remind existing fans, This is the Fast and the Furious series."

He suddenly became very serious and said solemnly, "I think I have found the direction of this series. The actors must be strong and sparkling, the plot must be solid, and the scenes must be fierce and exciting. Commercial films that achieve these three points will not be ugly. , it won't be bad at the box office. We're going to add more metal squeaks and glass smashes, more noise, more engine roars, more action scenes, more Sexy chick in a tight miniskirt. Speed! Passion! The best theme of the collection..."

Speaking of which, he showed a slightly self-deprecating smile, "I only want to understand these issues at the cost of **** up a "Tokyo Drift"."

Bearded Jack nodded slightly, obviously thinking that what Justin Lin said made sense.

David Ellison looked at Matthew, but Matthew remained calm. These were really moving, and reminded him of the successful films behind the series. Unfortunately, the director of this series did not. As bizarre as the Wachowskis, he had no memory of the director's name.

Saying and doing are always two different things. Well-spoken may not necessarily do well.

Justin Lin opened the briefcase he was carrying at this time, took out a thick stack of documents, put it on the conference table, and pushed it to the bearded Jack.

This stack of documents is five or six times as thick as the film script.

Justin-Lin added, "This is the plan I prepared, which includes many things such as the investigation of movie fans, the conception of the speeding scene, and the design of the character's emotional relationship, which I have personally made in the past few months."

Bearded Jack took the stack of documents, opened it and looked at it, then exchanged glances with Matthew and David Ellison, and then said to Justin Lin, "Justin, come here first today, I will take it seriously. Looking at your plan, I will notify you of the results as soon as possible."

"Okay." Justin Lin stood up, "I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate."

Under the leadership of the staff, he slowly walked out of the door of the conference room.

In the conference room, David Ellison took the lead to say, "He said it very well. Of all the directors we have seen, his philosophy is the closest to ours."

Matthew nodded lightly, "Yeah, if it wasn't for the failure of "Tokyo Drift," he might have been a good fit for the series."

"It's not a bad thing." Bearded Jack suddenly said, "Some directors can draw lessons from previous failures and make appropriate adjustments. Judging from the situation just now, Justin Lin should be such a person. "

Helen Herman chimed in, "I'll get in touch with him again."

Matthew understood the meaning of this, "You want to dig him into the Angel Agency?"

Helen Herman did not deny it, and nodded lightly, "We have seen many directors before and after, and Justin Lin is the only one who is fully prepared."

David Ellison still has doubts, "but 'Tokyo Drift'..."

This is an unavoidable question, and it is because of Tokyo Drift that Universal Pictures ended the Fast and the Furious franchise.

Matthew frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Well, let's study Justin Lin's plan first." He looked at Helen Herman, "You contact him a few more times."

He then said to the bearded Jack, "Jack, you conduct a comprehensive assessment of him."

"David," Matthew finally said to David Ellison. "How about we make him the No. 1 candidate for now?"

"If you think he can, he certainly can." David Ellison is particularly confident in Matthew, "You make up your mind on this matter."

This is the end of the meeting. Although the director candidate has not been finalized, there is also a real candidate target. However, Matthew proceeded cautiously and had to conduct a more comprehensive assessment of Justin Lin.

This is related to his investment of tens of millions of dollars, and if he is not careful, he will lose money.

Losing money, let alone someone who managed to accumulate some fortune, even a real super rich second-generation like David Ellison, is unwilling to happen.

Helen Herman took the lead to leave Sky Dance Pictures, and it is estimated that he will contact Justin Lin soon~www.readwn.com~ Bearded Jack finds someone to copy Justin Lin's plan, ready to give to Matthew and David Ellison each.

Matthew didn't leave. On the one hand, he was waiting for the copy of the bearded Jack. On the other hand, he wanted to chat with David Ellison.

The two of them went to David Ellison's office, and after some muttering, David Ellison was so excited that his eyebrows flew into the sky.

"You have to find me for this kind of thing! You forget me about such a fun thing, I want to worry about you!" David Ellison is gearing up, "Matthew, things that can make me feel less and less exciting now It's funny to think about pitting a big Hollywood star into bankruptcy."

Matthew made a gesture to David Ellison, "Don't spread it out, it won't work if you spread it out."

David Ellison smiled, "Don't worry, we dug a small one earlier, and then we dug a big one together." He suddenly frowned, "Are you sure that project will not be successful? If the other party relies on this project Profit, we are a joke.”

"I'm 80% to 90% sure." Matthew deliberately put on a confident look and gave a nonsense reason, "I've had deep discussions with Andrew Stanton many times, he's an excellent animation film master , want to use the same set of animated films to make live-action films, these are two completely different types!"

Because of the super success of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors", David Ellison trusted Matthew very much, "I understand, just like last time, I will cooperate with you."

The bearded Jack sent the copy over. Matthew did not leave immediately, but got together with David Ellison and discussed a lot of implementation details. In some ways, they The two smell alike.
