The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 95: long-term plan

  In the restaurant, Ronan and Jessica Felton are sitting opposite each other, tasting a good steak.

"what……"

   A low exclamation sound came from Jessica Felton, a small piece of beef slipped from her mouth, and it would fall under normal circumstances.

   But as a woman who bowed her head and couldn't see her feet, a tragedy happened. The beef smashed on the huge mountain, causing a big stain on the white T-shirt.

   "Here again." Jessica Felton picked up the small piece of beef, threw it on the table, and complained: "Every time I eat."

Ronan looked at the conspicuous stains on the mountain, and thought of Jessica Felton's always dirty breasts... No, it was the clothes on the breasts. He couldn't help but have a guess: people occasionally eat and drop food. All went down, Jessica Felton looked down and couldn't see her feet, food could only hit the mountain.

   Hey, sadness with big breasts.

   sighed secretly, Ronan pulled out the napkin and handed it to Jessica Felton: "Would you like to wipe it?"

   Jessica Felton looked down, and smiled embarrassedly: "Thank you."

   took the napkin, and gently wiped the T-shirt that was held up by the chest.

   may be a natural and particularly soft relationship. As she wiped the oil stain on the T-shirt, the two lumps trembled constantly.

   Ronan quickly took a sip from the water glass, and his eyes moved up to Jessica Felton's pale wheat-colored smooth skin face, forcing to recall her unkempt and unkempt image.

   "How long will it take to cut the film?" Ronan asked.

Jessica Felton put down her napkin, thought for a while, and said: "It will take some time." She explained a few words: "You want a horror atmosphere, but also maintain the real DV selfie effect. The editing is more difficult than mine. Imagine bigger."

   Ronan suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I just forgot to tell you. You edited a five-minute clip to highlight the disappearance of the Blair Witch and two college students."

   "No problem." Jessica Felton first responded, and then asked: "Are you planning to make publicity?"

   Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes."

   Jessica Felton asked curiously: "You don't want to make a fuss about missing, do you?"

   Although he is a tech freak, he is not stupid at all, and an idiot can't do the high-tech and delicate work of editing.

   "Confidentiality." Ronan reminded her: "Don't forget, we signed a confidentiality clause."

   Jessica Felton understood the meaning behind this, and first responded: "Of course I will keep it secret. I am so poor and have no money to pay for it." She went on to say, "Do you really want to hype up missing?"

   Ronan shrugged: "The two actors can't be found. I plan to let the entire North America help find them."

   "Is this false propaganda?" Jessica Felton asked.

   Ronan shook his head: "This is a business strategy, it has nothing to do with false propaganda."

  How can there be false claims about business matters?

   Jessica Felton is not stupid at all, and said directly: "Don't put my name on the subtitles of this movie."

   "Don't worry." Ronan glanced at her: "This is a self-portrait DV video after editing, not a movie. There will be no cast and crew subtitles on it."

   If a film is marked with a list of directors, producers, or actors, wouldn’t it be conceited?

   Jessica Felton was a little worried: "Can you pass the union and MPAA?"

"MPAA is easy to say, and the big deal is rated as R." Ronan took the napkin and wiped his mouth. After wiping it, he remembered that this napkin Jessica Felton had just wiped his chest, put it aside, and continued: "The directors' union has rules on the opening and ending of the film, but none of the people involved in this film is a union member, and there is no need to follow the rigid rules of the union."

   The title of "Star Wars" did not meet the directors' union regulations, and George Lucas was unwilling to change it. In order for the film to be released smoothly, George Lucas simply quit the directors' union.

   Until now, George Lucas is still a non-union member.

   The two discussed the cutting of "Blair the Witch" for a while. Ronan remembered the lack of talent under his hand and asked, "Jesse, do you have a plan for future development?"

   Jessica Felton didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Edit."

   Ronan seriously suggested: "I think you broaden your horizons and keep your eyes on the long-term."

   Jessica looked at Ronan, didn't quite understand the meaning of this, and asked, "Isn't it good to be an editor?"

"Editing is the most critical part of post-production." Ronan has seen Jessica Felton's commitment and attitude towards work. This kind of technical madman with his own bedding should have great potential to be tapped: "Your future There will be more and more film projects you will come into contact with, and you may even encounter top-notch large-scale productions. You may need the assistance of a team. Don't you want to build a team?

   Jessica Felton said directly: "No, because I don't have the money to pay someone else."

   "The salary can be borne by the hired crew." Ronan did not give up. "For example, as a post-producer, you can also control the editing and have more power."

   Jessica Felton figured out Ronan's meaning: "You mean, let me develop in the direction of a producer?"

   Ronan nodded and said, "Professional and technically responsible filmmakers, this direction does not conflict with your hobbies." He thought about it, and then said, "A little bit further, you can use Catherine Kennedy as a template."

Katherine Kennedy was originally Steven Spielberg’s secretary and assistant, and later climbed from the assistant producer to the producer’s position step by step, participating in "ET Alien" and "Back to the Future". "Song", "Jurassic Park", "Tornado" and many other film production work, is the most successful female producer in Hollywood at this stage.

   In her previous life, after George Lucas retired, she became the helm of Lucasfilm.

   "This..." Jessica Felton scratched her face: "I didn't think about it."

   She devoted herself to the research of editing technology and never considered things too far.

   Ronan said again: "Jesse, you are a career-oriented woman. You should make a long-term career plan for yourself."

   Jessica Felton nodded: "When the editing is finished, I will seriously consider it."

   After eating lunch together, he returned to the Warner Studios. Ronan did not go to the office building. After separating from Jessica Felton, he went directly to the studio where the crew of "Death is Coming".

  The preliminary preparations for the crew have reached the final stage, and the filming will officially begin soon.

   Ronan found director James Huang: "Is there any difficulty?"

   James Huang was not polite, and said directly: "Capital! Want to achieve the ideal shooting effect ~ www.readwn.com~ Funds may exceed the budget."

   Ronan had already prepared. The public budget of "Reaper is Coming" is 15 million US dollars, but the actual investment can reach 20 million US dollars.

   "Appropriate control." Ronan reminded James Huang: "I can solve the problem of over budget, but not too much. If there are too many, I can't explain to investors."

   James Wong took out the latest plan and looked at it, and said, "I roughly estimate that it will not exceed $2 million at most."

   Ronan will not be vague when it comes to supporting the director: "Well, James, 17 million US dollars, I will be responsible for the extra funds, no more I can do it."

   James Wong laughed immediately: "Thank you for your support, Ronan."

"But I also have a condition." How can Ronan make a loss-making business, often using the resources he would have invested in exchange for benefits: "You have to be the director of the sequel to "Human Removal Project 2". There will be a sequel to "Reaper Is Coming" in the future. If you do, you also have to be the director."

   James Huang grabbed his black hair: "Ronan, this... is too far away, you should talk to my agent."

   Ronan didn’t persuade him, but instead asked, “James, can you get the support of me when you go to take on the projects of those big studios?”

   James Huang did not speak. Although the producer of the crew is Ronan, Ronan rarely interferes with his normal work. He is almost responsive in terms of funding. Directors of the same level cannot be as comfortable as him.

But this kind of promise can’t be given casually. James Wong considered it for a while before he said: “Ronan, I am very grateful for your support to turn my dream into a movie. In the next two years, under the same conditions, I I will give priority to working with you."
