Hollywood Hunter

Santa Monica.

In the parking lot outside the headquarters of Daenerys Films, Simon and Amy got out of the car, Jennifer and Amy's assistant Vanessa got out of another car, and the four walked into the company office building together.

Simon is still talking about the movie with Amy: "I thought about it. Now that CAA has temporarily changed his mind, Robin Williams will forget it. You will give this script and the outline of my ghost movie to Robert. De Niro, it's best to sign both films with him at once."

Amy confirmed: "The Sixth Sense of Supernatural that Bruce Joy Robin is writing?"

The last time he met with Bruce Joy Robin, the screenwriter of "Human and Ghost", Simon was reminded by the story of "Human and Ghost". Another ghost movie that came to mind was the original time and space that sold at the box office in 1999. The Sixth Sense of Supernatural. This well-conceived plot thriller was second only to "Star Wars: The Threat of Ghosts" at the box office that year, with a global box office of more than 600 million U.S. dollars, which is even more popular than "Human and Ghosts".

Simon nodded and said, "Yes, De Niro must be very interested in trying the two roles of teacher and psychologist."

Amy smiled and said: "Actually, what I thought of was De Niro at first. However, in this case, the budgetary cost of the two films must exceed 10 million US dollars."

Although in his bones Simon hopes to get rid of his dependence on superstars, he also understands that with the current strength of Daenerys Pictures, he cannot challenge Hollywood's traditional rules in the short term.

"If you exceed it, exceed it. In any case, ensuring the quality of the film is the first thing," Simon said, remembering another thing, and said: "Recently, the negotiations between the screenwriters union and the producer union broke down again?"

"Yeah, there will probably be a strike again this year," Amy also understood Simon's meaning, and said: "I will urge Robert Haring and Bruce Joy Robin to complete "Steel Magnolia" and "Surprise" before the strike. "Scream" script."

Simon listened to Amy's relaxed tone, and suddenly realized that the entire Hollywood probably did not anticipate the severity of the next strike.

The "Basic Agreement" between the Film and Television Producers Union and the Screenwriters' Union is renegotiated every three years. Disputes occur almost every time, but they are basically resolved quickly. Except for the first screenwriter's strike in Hollywood history in 1960, which lasted 151 days, the other strikes were very short. The most recent strike in 1985 lasted only 15 days.

However, the strike of Hollywood screenwriters in 1988 lasted 155 days.

Simon was originally considering using the opportunity of the strike to expand Daenerys Film’s TV program production business. Now, with Hollywood’s optimism at this time, if done properly, Daenerys Films will be able to gain The benefits are definitely more than these.

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

Simon looked at Jennifer who was following, and noticed that her hair was unraveled again today. He remembered that the female assistant's hairstyles these days are always changing between shawls and ponytails. She looked like she was struggling, and laughed. : "Like Amy, have you started to adjust your hair style according to your mood?"

After getting along for a long time, Simon discovered that Amy Pascal has a small habit of changing his hair style according to his mood.

Jennifer didn't expect that Simon would notice these details. Thinking of Janet's words that night, he suddenly felt that he was so hateful, he must have noticed.

Her cheeks started to heat up again, and she didn't know how to answer, so she dropped her head and pretended not to hear it.

Seeing that the female assistant was silent, Simon did not ask, but smiled and said, "Let's tie it up. I like the way you tie it up."

tie.

Tie up.

It's like riding a horse.

Bastard, don't even think about it!

Jennifer plucked up the courage to raise her head and glared at Simon, but subconsciously speeded up her pace, and quickly fled into her office.

Simon looked confusedly at Jennifer closing the office door, very puzzled, just making a casual joke, not so lethal, right?

When she came to her office, Susan outside told Simon that Ms. Bigelow had been waiting for more than ten minutes.

Pushing the door open, Catherine was sitting on the sofa in the reception area and flipping through a script. The woman was wearing a dark green military-style jacket, bootcut jeans, and a pair of black high-heeled boots on her feet. Fuying's awe-inspiring appearance.

Noting that Catherine was about to stand up, Simon hurriedly stopped: "No, you just sit down."

Catherine was a little unsure, so she stood up.

then.

The woman's height immediately surpassed Simon, and with her outfit today, it instantly made Simon feel like you don't have to ask, "I won't tell you to kill me".

Catherine felt the look in Simon's eyes, and raised the script in Yang's hand somewhat unnaturally, "Do you want to read it first?"

Simon walked over and took the script, still looking at the woman who was completely unable to start, and smiled: "Can I take off my coat? I'm afraid you'll hit me if I pick the script."

Catherine cast Simon angrily, but sat down again.

Simon walked to the couch next to Catherine and sat down, cocked his legs and put the script on his lap, and glanced at the title, "Thunderbolt Blue Angel." It is Catherine's second cinematic feature film after "Blood Corpse Night".

No surprise, Eric Reid, the scriptwriter of "The Blue Angels", was also the writer of Catherine’s last Blood Corpse Night. In some previous communications, Catherine stated that she was talking to Eric Reid. Together to improve the script, the name of the story was only recently confirmed.

I have actually seen this movie in my memory, and Simon’s biggest feeling is that this time Jamie Lee Curtis must not be the leading actress. Simon has feelings for many neutral female stars, but he always thinks that Jamie Lee Curtis is not neutral, he is a man at all.

As Simon opened the script, the atmosphere in the office suddenly calmed down.

Catherine looked at the side face of the little man next to him who was concentrating on reading the script. After a while, she reacted and quickly took a sip of the coffee on the coffee table. She wanted to find a random topic and asked him how he was doing.

but.

Since the end of October, his every move seems to appear in the newspaper.

Suddenly made so much money, almost under investigation, even during the holiday season, toss a big company like Motorola.

little bastard.

and.

Don't even say take the initiative

It must be intentional.

After a moment of silence, she raised the coffee cup in her hand and asked, "Do you want coffee?"

Simon looked up and said, "Okay."

When he noticed that he was looking at his cup, he suddenly remembered that morning, inexplicably worried that he would come over and **** the coffee cup in his hand, by the way...so he got up quickly: "I'll get it for you."

When he came to the door, he found that he had just locked the door of the office, he must be planning to do something bad.

little bastard.

I cursed lightly again in my heart, went outside to make a pot of coffee in person, returned to the office, hesitated, found a reason silently, and locked the door again.

Pour him a cup of coffee, sit down again, and think for a while, "You must be very busy? Or, I'll go back first. Just give me a reply when you finish reading it."

Simon shook his head: "No, it's only your business this afternoon."

Listening to his natural tone, he had to pretend to hold up the coffee cup again. Then he noticed the obvious nasty smile at the corner of his mouth, so he stretched his leg over, raised the heel of the hard booties, and gently tapped on the back of his instep.

Not willing to use force, her boots were caught between Simon's feet, and she subconsciously retracted her legs, leaving the black short boots on the man's side.

Looking at her boots, she wanted to grab them from the past, but she didn't dare to approach them. Instinctively feel that if you lean on it, it is possible that the whole person will not come back.

"you can not do that."

"Ok?"

"I will tell Jenny."

"Ok."

"Return the shoes to me."

"No."

"little bastard."

"thank you."

After a stalemate, she felt that she was getting more and more angry, um, it must be so, and then she couldn't help getting up and leaning in to get her shoes back.

then.

Sure enough, the whole person was caught.

I don't know how long it took. On the couch, Simon was still sitting in the same position as before, but Catherine was lying on the other side, raising an arm to cover her face, and her chest was still a little rushing. The woman's military jacket that made Simon quite oppressive has been taken off, she is wearing a close-fitting black turtleneck sweater, and only thin silk stockings are left on her feet, and she is resting weakly on the man's legs.

Simon continued to flip through the script of "Thunderbolt Blue Angel" for a while, and when the woman calmed down, he tentatively asked, "Come to me at night?"

"No," Catherine refused subconsciously, and paused before adding in a low voice: "You... have been found by your side, so I won't see anyone. Also, Jenny."

Simon thought of the almost uninterrupted paparazzi around him, and was a little bit distressed. Hearing Catherine mentioned Janet, he was silent for a moment and said: "I will confess to Jenny. I am too greedy to be a good man."

Catherine said immediately: "Don't tell her."

Simon said: "Jenny is very smart."

Catherine insisted: "Anyway, you are not allowed to tell her."

"Okay," Simon smiled helplessly, and said, "I will go to San Francisco recently, about the sceneries of "Instinct", and some other things. Or, you also go over there, pay a little attention over there, it should not be found."

Catherine still covered her face with her arm, shook her head and said, "No, I don't want to cooperate with you in doing this kind of thing."

Simon smiled bitterly and said, "What should I do? You don't want to be here and don't go to San Francisco. Go to my side for fear of being discovered."

Catherine lightly kicked Simon in the leg: "It has nothing to do with me, this is your business."

Simon couldn't help but raised his hand and scratched the bottom of the woman's feet. He was kicked a few more times. He had to say, "Forget it, let's talk about the script. What do you want to say about this story?"

"I don't want to talk now."

"Well, then don't talk."

Simon nodded, rubbing the woman's calf on his body, and occasionally turning through a page of the script, quietly killing the beautiful time of the afternoon.
