Legendary Hollywood Producer

Chapter 35: Director Steve Oldcock (please ask for recommendation tickets, ask for collection.)

Steve Oldcock stood under the Manhai Entertainment building and asked the agent next to him, "Lille, this is it."

The man named Lille was a white man who was about 35 years old.

"Steve, you must seize this opportunity. You haven't made a movie in 8 years, but you can't go on like this." Lille was a little anxious. I didn't get it. I was still a bit stubborn and refused to take on TV series shooting. There were so many resources for movies. There are even fewer Steves who are suitable for comedy shooting. He hasn't made a movie for a long time.

"Yeah." Steve Oldcock is not irritable. For him, whether he can succeed or not, just like that, shoot when he fits, and leave when he doesn't fit. He has a calm mind.

Lille also said there, “Although Manhai Entertainment is a new company, it has already produced two big-selling movies. You should take advantage of your chance this time, Steve.” Lille believes in the theory of success. He thinks that a successful person will be more likely to succeed next time than others. Manhai Entertainment has succeeded twice, and it is very likely to succeed the third time. This is why he pays so much attention to it. He has been calling Give Manhai Entertainment a chance.

"Go up." Steve didn't think so much. He stepped into Manhai Entertainment. Lille also quickly followed in Steve's footsteps. He is just a medium CAA agent, and he has no big stars under him. The husband is already a very good resource in his hands, and he really wants to give Steve a second spring.

"Steve Oldcock, isn't it? You have filmed "Detective Plane 2" and participated in the production of many cartoons." Roman looked at the information in his hand. This is a certificate issued by the directors' union. Very detailed.

Steve Oldcock was born in the United States in 1961.

The main works include: "Detective Plane 2", "Fatty Professor 1", "Fatty Professor 2" and other movies.

"Yes." Steve looked at the outline of the script in his hand, and was already conceiving the picture in his mind. Facing Roman's question, he answered casually, without even putting his eyes on Roman.

Roman put down the information in his hand and waited for Steve Oldcock to finish reading the script. This director, Roman had a very good first impression of him. Not only did he make many comedy movies, but he also had a good box office.

After a while, Steve raised his head, looked at Roman, and asked in a steady tone, "Is the budget for this movie really $15 million?" As long as the budget is about $10 million, Steve intends to take over. A movie, this is what he thought after reading the script.

Although it was a bit surprised why Director Steve asked about the budget first, Roman still answered his question first, "Yes, the budget is 15 million US dollars."

"Well, I'm willing to take over this movie and take over as its director." Steve's gaze at Roman softened a lot, 15 million dollars, which is enough for him to make this movie, and it can even be wasted. Take some interesting shots that have nothing to do with the script.

Romain listened to Steve, and to be honest, he was a bit happy and confident, but Romain didn't dislike such self-confidence.

Although he had a good impression of Steve Oldcock, Roman did not forget the question that should be asked. This is all a procedure. Roman should understand the style of each director who took the test of "The Hangover" and find out the most suitable one. .

"How will you come to make this movie, Mr. Steve, tell me what you think." Roman asked again the questions he had been asking these days.

"I will use a two-line narrative to promote the storyline. The first is the main line: after waking up, the trio is looking for the groom, and the second branch: flashbacks to restore what happened during the hangover." Steve- The more Oddkerk said, the clearer his thoughts became. “This movie should not take the traditional comedy road. It is pure spoof, ridicule, or even swearing to make people laugh. Although this will be an R-rated film, I don’t want to be vulgar. It’s not what I want to shoot this story."

Steve Oldcock brewed a tone and said, "I want to use a lens to use a simple match with the environment or characters and things to express the right kind of joke, without any exaggerated body movements. The simpler the better, the more commonplace the better.” After speaking, Steve Oldcock looked at Roman eagerly. This is not a traditional comedy shooting method. It was the inspiration that came up when he was just reading the script. I don’t know. Will the producer agree with him to direct the film? After Steve said this, he also looked forward to the film being handed over to him. He wanted to try this concept.

"Please go back and wait for the notice, Mr. Steve, if it passes, we will call you to notify you." Although Mr. Roman admires Steve very much, he has some problems to think about.

Because of his shooting philosophy, Roman even had to go back to the screenwriter to change the script. Those who wrote the script of this movie created it with the traditional comedy concept. There were a lot of swear words in it, but Steve looked at the outline of the script and didn't show it.

For such a director who wants to try novel comedy shooting methods, if you change the script, you should look for those directors who insisted on traditional comedy shooting, such as: Lloyd, this is a problem. Roman needs some time to think about whether it is innovation. Still conservative.

"Why, don't you agree with my shooting philosophy? Mr. Roman, this is an excellent setting. It needs this way to shoot, and I am the best choice." Steve Oldcock saw Roman Packing up the materials, ready to leave, I couldn't help but fight for myself. He liked the script very much and wanted to be the director of this movie.

"No, Mr. Steve, I am very optimistic about you, but I need some time, please be patient."

"Okay, I wish you would choose me, really, Mr. Roman, I never disappoint." Steve Oldcock saw that Roman was still undecided, so he had to exit to get a vote for himself.

Turning and leaving the conference room, Lille sat on a chair outside the door and immediately followed Steve when he saw Steve coming out.

"How's it going?" Lille asked.

"Go back and wait for the news." Steve returned to that calm tone.

Lille was a little disappointed when he heard this, can he wait for the news when he goes back? Lille doubted.
