unofficial hollywood life

Diana did fulfill her promise and gave him great power.Except for a heroine who is almost like a vase, the rest of the things are done according to his wishes. Although sometimes the two of them quarreled in the script and almost fought, but they really grasped the feeling of a crew. It's really great!

"It's probably due to her inexperience as a producer at the beginning, but no matter what, it's a fact that you got the benefits." Ellie, who had suffered a complete failure in the negotiations on the salary, finally found some of Diana's advantages.

No way, who told Mel to be a director for the first time?Other directors’ debut works are tens of thousands of 10,000+, hundreds of thousands, and millions of them have previous shooting experience, such as MV and commercials, and they have to be supervised by the producer when shooting. constraints.But when Mel started producing tens of millions of dollars, the producer was willing to delegate power to him. This is simply unbelievable!

If it wasn't for Diana Morgan's boyfriend, Tom Cruise, America's Sweetheart, Avery would almost think that she would empathize with Mel!But don't say that the two of them just slapped each other's faces by pulling each other's hair. Even if that Morgan is a love brain, he can't spend so much money to toss about it. its solution.

In the end, it can only be attributed to the fact that Mel's talent convinced the same stubborn chick, and she was willing to pay him to realize his dream of putting his works on the big screen.

That's right, it's my own work.

Avery didn't know that Diana had written Good Night, Hudson until after Mel signed the contract, which really shocked him for a long time.Avery, a very serious American, can't figure out how a little girl who doesn't smile at Bingshan but has a sweet smile thinks that she can write such a wonderful novel. The various props and other things in it are completely Refresh the lower limit of his sexual concept.

Oh, don't get me wrong, he didn't want to actively try these novel ways of playing, but he was just a little curious if she would play like this when she was in bed with Tom Cruise?

Although you can't go under someone's bed to explore, but think about it too much, right?

Well, it can only be said that Avery is also an ordinary person, and he is still a very gossip ordinary person. Even if he is rich and powerful, this does not make him a person who does not eat fireworks.He has what ordinary people have, and what ordinary people don’t have, he also has, and because he is in Hollywood, a place where gossip gathers, and because he is an agent, a profession that needs to collect information, he is more serious than ordinary people in terms of detection of gossip. .After all, ordinary people can't do anything after getting the news, but a broker can decide many things after getting the exact news.For example, attacking your opponents in your career, or exchanging these things for some resources.But it is a pity that Diana Morgan's novel author status does not make him profitable. At most, it is just to provide gossip reporters with some talk, what else can he do?

This girl already has an agent, her boyfriend is a big star who is on the rise in Hollywood, and she is even very rich.She has everything she should have, and she has everything others don't have, and Avery can't find anything to do with this young girl.Besides, he didn't need to target this girl, at least until the project of "Good Night, Hudson" was completed, they still had a community of interests.

Not only did Kevin's own clients get bonuses for this movie, but even Ellie, because the director was Mel, also stuffed a lot of clients into the audition, and they were still the kind of clients who were familiar with the original work.

Don't underestimate this, sometimes being familiar with a script can make all the difference in auditioning.Otherwise, why do so many children from Hollywood families have more opportunities than others?Because often when those outsiders don't know anything, they already know the story behind the audition because of their elders, which is enough for them to eliminate other people, let alone those potential connections?

Don't think that the Western world doesn't talk about human relations anymore, it's just that people talk about it more openly, and they can talk about it if they want to, and there are high-sounding reasons for not wanting to talk about it. Your strength is not enough.Rather than being kidnapped by favors and directly ruining one's career.

There is a saying that goes well, little red depends on praise, big red depends on fate.Is there no such thing as flattery in Hollywood?Of course not, in fact there are many more, but there are really too few of them.This huge machine that has been in operation for nearly 100 years covers too many people and things, and the chain of interests derived from it is too huge to be counted clearly, so it is more rigorous in certain things. Works with small investment are easier to operate, and even in works with large investment, if you pass the audition, people will not reject you, but these are all based on the fact that an actor can bring benefits to the crew, and replace it with another actor. An actor who always loses money, you try again?

Even Al Pacino, a big guy, will cut his salary in the next movie because he lost money in the last movie, not to mention those little people, so he wants to rely on money to follow power, unless you are standing behind An interest group, the kind that needs to launder money, can keep getting a high salary while constantly throwing money away.

So he is not unhappy that Mel's salary is only 10,000+. It is of course a good thing to be able to negotiate a high salary. What about movies?

If I really want to say, the investment of this "Good Night, Hudson" is not much less than that of "Love in New York", because the latter's remuneration is more than 800 million for Mel and Judy alone. , It is probably between 400 million and 500 million that are purely used for movies. The total investment of "Good Night, Hudson" is 1000 or 200 million. If Mr. Gibson can control the cost well, he will probably reduce the actor's remuneration to less than [-] million, leaving enough money for the film shooting.

And this is what Mel is worried about now. Are there any suitable actors among the already famous actors?The answer is definitely yes, but limited to financial issues, he really can't find a lot of actors who have won fame, which is too uneconomical.And he himself may not be able to suppress these famous actors, who doesn't have a bad temper of his own?Especially for the role of the bad boy Warner, he hopes to find an actor who can play in his true colors. What if the other party's bad temper comes up and makes things happen on the set?Do you want him to use force to suppress it?

What a sad thing that the director can't use his own courage to convince the other party but uses force!

So he still has to find the roles he needs from those experienced but not popular actors. For this reason, he even brought his idea into his own ethnic circle.Well, it's not the Australian gang, it's the Irish gang.

"If there is no suitable candidate here in the United States, you can also try it in the UK. The actors there have a solid foundation and the salary is not high." Peter Otto said to Mel.

The man who has been nominated for seven Oscars but still hasn't won a statuette is Irish through and through, as can be seen from his name.

Now he was discussing his little trouble with Mel at an Irish party.

"Britain? That's a good idea." Mel was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Even though he hates the British, he has to admit that Irish actors often start their careers in the UK.And if there is no accident, this beginning will also be the end. Only a few lucky ones will jump out of the UK and come to Hollywood, such as the senior in front of me.

Because of the abandonment of Marlon Brando and Albert Finney, he became the leading actor in "Lawrence of Arabia", and became known to the public. Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take.

This is luck. There are not many outstanding actors who are not so lucky. He can indeed look farther.

"Audition?" So when the summer vacation was almost halfway through and Diana was so busy that she finally had a chance to breathe, she received a call from the other party, summoning her to attend the final audition for the leading actor and supporting actor.

"Mel's number?" asked Tom, who was having lunch with his girlfriend.

He is also busy now, "Ambition for the Earth" has started filming, and he has officially joined the crew.In addition, Diana had to run around frequently, and the two really became a couple who get together less and leave more.

"Well, about the audition of the leading actor and supporting actor. In the previous rounds of auditions, many actors have been eliminated. Now it is the last round, and this round will almost determine the leading actor and supporting actor." Dai Anna nodded.

Recently, she has been busy communicating with various aspects and confirming the contract with the venue owners according to the director's requirements. She really doesn't have much time to take care of the casting director's selection of actors.What's more, she has already determined the heroine of the movie. As long as the hero and supporting actor fit the roles, she will not have any opinions.So she didn't show up in the first few rounds of auditions.

Mel Gibson, she can see very clearly that even though his personality is bad, he will not make willful choices in professional matters. This is his first directorial work, and it is related to the future. He wouldn't be so stupid to mess with it.

It was also because of this that she was very relieved before.But now that it's the final round, she always has to see who will play the characters in her writing.
