The script was originally used by Adrian as the stepping stone for Hollywood. When his fame began to spread with the production of the two movies, it lost its initial value. Therefore, the role of the script must change.
Because of the previous scripts, and the screenwriters of the two successful movies, he also came from his own hands, Adrian already has the title of genius screenwriter among the senior executives of various film companies.
He knew this, so the script became the best thing he wanted to win over these film companies.
If it were someone else, this would definitely be an impossible task. Although the status of screenwriters in Hollywood is much better than decades ago, they still don’t have much say.
When making movies, big-name stars, big-name directors, and big-name producers can modify the script at will. If you don’t want to adjust according to their opinions, you will leave directly. Anyway, there are many screenwriters.
But Adrian is different. Not to mention his identity as a director, producer and film company owner, the 8 different types of scripts born from him alone are enough to give senior executives of major film companies a different look, not to mention that he is still young.
With this point, it is entirely possible to use scripts to influence these large companies.
Of course, he alone is not good, and Lavern can't help with it, so he needs an excellent agent.
If you want to gain a foothold in Hollywood, it is definitely not possible to have an agent. An excellent agent can solve a lot of trouble and gain a lot of benefits for your employer, such as negotiating a share of your share with a film company, contacting the media for publicity, rejecting unfriendly journalists, and canvassing for your employer after you receive an award nomination, etc.
Generally speaking, if an actor becomes a first-line star, his agent will account for 30% or even more of his credit.
However, this does not mean that agents can do everything. Take CAA for example. Their most proud approach is bundling sales. If a film company wants to get the script of a screenwriter who is responsible for one of their agents, it must also use the directors and actors under their agents.
But this approach is of no use in front of big film companies. The connections they have can allow them to directly contact actors, directors, and screenwriters through agents. Although they have to sign contracts through agents in the end, bundling sales is impossible.
In fact, the purpose of this bundling sales in CAA is mainly to attract more second- and third-tier actors and directors as much as possible. There are so many second- and third-tier actors and directors in Hollywood, and there are always a few talented people who can stand out.
It turns out that their luck is indeed very good, so they are stabilizing other brokerage companies as they enter the 21st century, but unfortunately they now have Adrian.
In short, brokers are very important. Although there is no room for them to intervene in various high-level negotiations and transactions, they are indispensable in daily things.
Adrian is still a long way from high-level transactions, so if you want to find an excellent agent to help operate these scripts, several major film companies will definitely not be treated equally due to their future development. How to reject certain companies but maintain a certain relationship depends on the ability of the agent.
Tell me about Roger in your eyes, Dan.
Adrian told Dennis that although he had obtained Roger Seidler's information through Claude, it would be nice to learn about Dennis's opinion from another aspect.
Let me think about it... First of all, he is a very smart person... Dennis talked about it while recalling it. Roger obviously gave him a good impression. Dennis often talked for him.
Adrian didn't interrupt, but just listened quietly, and then outlined the approximate outline in his heart.Then let’s take a look at Roger’s performance and make a decision after the agency company has adjusted.
By the way, Ed, there's something... maybe you can give me some advice?Just as Adrian was about to get up to get some drinks, Dennis suddenly said hesitantly.
oh?What is it?Adrian sat back with interest, and had never seen Dennis like this before.
Well...it's...it's...Denis grabbed his head and thought for a long time before finally making a look willing to do it. What should I do if I want to pursue a girl?
Pursuing girls?
Adrian raised his eyebrows in surprise. He never expected that Dennis wanted to ask him this question. Don't tell me, you have never asked a girl out before.
How could it be!Dennis rolled his eyes, I am pursuing, do you understand?Pursue!
Is there any difference?Adrian shrugged, OK, I get it, what you mean is not only to sleep with her, but also to continue to develop, which girl has moved you?
Can I not say the name?
Dennis showed a hesitant look. We... can only be considered friends, we met at the party, and she already has a boyfriend and has a close relationship.So, I think you might be able to give me some advice, after all...
Although he didn't continue to say it, Adrian could guess what he wanted to say, and he couldn't help but feel ridiculous.
Already have a boyfriend?Looking at Dennis, he showed a smile.
What do you want to say?Dennis obviously doesn't think there is anything wrong with his approach. There is no law that he cannot pursue girls with boyfriends.
OK OK OK!Adrian smiled and shook his head. I think you wouldn't say her friend's name, so it's okay to talk about her and her boyfriend's personality?
Well... she is very beautiful, giving people a pure feeling, and attracting attention at the party.She is not tall, about 5 feet 3 inches, and is a little petite and cute.As for the personality, he is very gentle, docile and simple, he doesn't speak loudly, and his smile looks very attractive.
Dennis said recallingly, with a faint smile on his lips.
Adrian, who was listening, couldn't help but roll his eyes, sighed at his innocence, and then coughed dryly to change the subject: So what about her boyfriend?
A prodigal son, drinking, taking drugs, fighting, being unruly, without any sense of responsibility.Dennis waved his hand in disgust, and I had no idea why they came together.
Because bad men are more likely to attract innocent girls.
Adrian said with a smile, of course, this kind of relationship will not last long. The woman wants to make a promise, but the man is stingy with it, so it will be a matter of time before a breakup!
So what should I do?Wait for them to break up?Dennis frowned, obviously not what he wanted to see.
It's very simple, make yourself look different.Adrian said, turning the empty wine glass in his hand.
Make yourself look different?Dennis was puzzled.
That's right, the reason why bad men are more likely to attract those simple girls is because in the eyes of those simple girls, bad men are different from other men.
Speaking of this, Adri settled down. Let me put it this way, in the animal world, male animals always consider how to sow their seeds more comprehensively, while female animals consider finding the best males to pass on their genes. Humans as advanced animals are no exception.
Of course, for female animals, the strongest guy in the group who can ensure the reproduction of the group is the best, but for women, the best is indefinable.It is true that humans are advanced animals, but humans and animals are still fundamentally different. If you want to make women feel different from other men, it involves a lot of things.
But...can it be easier?Dennis felt a little dizzy when he heard it.
Adrian stared at him for a while, then shrugged: OK, let's say something else.
It doesn't matter, there's time in the future.
First, you should be able to coax women, find common topics to chat, and then go deeper step by step, invite them to eat and go out to play, etc.; secondly, while coaxing her, you should maintain your personality, which is what I said before, don’t make yourself like a piece of plasticine just to coax her, you can do whatever you want; finally, and the most important thing is to make her feel safe.
Adrian continued, women are emotional most of the time, and they always like to think about a lot of things, so when you can make her feel safe and reliable, and feel that you don’t have to be afraid of being around you, then you will have a great chance of taking her.
Dennis still looked dizzy and asked after a while: Can you...be more specific?
I won’t tell you when to do what, Dan, you need to understand these yourself. When you understand what I said to you just now, you will naturally know what you should do.
Adrian said with a smile, and said something suddenly came to his mind, and his smile became a little weird: OK, add one more thing, if you can get the girl's first time and let her be happy to the sky, then she will always remember you no matter whether she hates you or loves you in the future.But since she already has a boyfriend, you can only try the situation in the future.
Dennis grinned and said nothing, drank the liquid in the wine glass in his hand, and then got up and left.
Let me see what step you can do, Dan.Adrian looked at his back with interest.Unfortunately, he didn't know who Dennis was targeting, otherwise... his idea might be even worse.
After returning from Ohio and having a rest for almost three days, Adrian summoned the crew to start shooting the internal scenes at Studio 23.
The film company rented the studio early, and the prison cells, libraries, offices, and sewers when Andy escaped.
Calculate the time, it seems unlikely to complete the shooting within two and a half weeks. Although there are fewer shots in the internal scene than the external scene, there are only more than a dozen fewer shots.
Since that's the case, it's better to have three and a half weeks. Anyway, as long as it doesn't exceed eight weeks in total, it's fine.
Because of the previous scripts, and the screenwriters of the two successful movies, he also came from his own hands, Adrian already has the title of genius screenwriter among the senior executives of various film companies.
He knew this, so the script became the best thing he wanted to win over these film companies.
