Best of Hollywood

What happened at the exhibition was just a small episode for Ryan. In the next few days, he was busy filming "Chain Saw 2".

Eight days passed in a flash, the filming of the crew was over, and 20th Century Fox specially held a grand banquet.

However, Ryan did not participate. Instead, he followed the editor hired by Twentieth Century Fox and plunged into the editing room.

For three consecutive days, there was no news of Ryan. Monica Bellucci had to come to the editing room in person. When she opened the door, a strange smell came out, accompanied by sour smell, food, cigarettes, etc. Wait for the smell, mixed together, the taste is horrible and scary.

Monica Bellucci almost couldn't help but slammed the door shut to stay away from these horrible smells.

However, thinking of where she came to today, she finally chose to bite the bullet and walk in. The door was not closed, it was all to let the smell out.

The editing room is somewhat messy. There are leftover pizzas, hamburgers and other food on the table, and there are dense cigarette butts on the floor. It smells strange.

After looking around, she finally found Ryan's figure. His hair was messed up, as if he hadn't washed it for a few days, his clothes were in a mess, and there was a faint sour smell, as if he looked a bit like a homeless man.

"Hush!"

"lighter."

Seeing Monica Bellucci approaching, Ryan made a booing gesture, stood up, and said, "Go out and say, Jack is still resting."

Monica Bellucci nodded, quickly rushed out of the editing room, went outside, took a deep breath of fresh air, and said, "The smell just now almost made me faint."

"Can't you find some time to clean up?"

Ryan spread his hands helplessly, and said, "No way, 20th Century Fox has been urging us all the time, and we don't even have time to rest, let alone clean up."

"It's you, why are you suddenly free today!"

In just three days, two people edited more than two hours of footage, and the plot of the film is already very clear. Next, as long as it is simplified again, it can be regarded as the release version.

Monica Bellucci looked at Ryan's haggard face, couldn't help but cursed, and said, "Damn 20th Century Fox, they're just a bunch of vampires."

"Today I came to say goodbye to you, and tomorrow I will go to England to shoot."

U.K!

It was only then that Ryan realized that she was going to the UK to shoot "Leaving Las Vegas", and she couldn't help saying: "Be careful, the shooting method there is very different from Hollywood, and it pays more attention to artistry. Sometimes a shot It will take a long time to shoot."

"If you encounter difficulties, you can contact the film producer Jill-Anne-Herd, I have already said hello to her."

"Thank you." Monica Bellucci pointed to Ryan's clothes and said, "As a reward, I can listen to you tonight."

"But the premise is that you must first take a good hot bath and change into clean clothes."

Ryan touched the clothes on his body, and there was indeed an unpleasant smell, and said, "You said it yourself."

Immediately, the two drove out of the editing room and came to an apartment rented by Monica Bellucci. Ryan went to the bathroom with ease, took off his clothes, and planned to wash them well.

While Ryan was taking a shower, Monica Bellucci drove to a supermarket and bought some red wine and steak for a hearty lunch.

Maybe her cooking skills are not very good, but she is very attentive.

When Ryan came out of the bathroom, the food was neatly placed on the dining table, and even the red wine had been put in the decanter, waiting for him to come out and enjoy it together.

"How is my outfit today!" Monica Bellucci sat on the chair, raised her long legs, and asked in a seductive pose.

She changed into a black transparent silk pajamas, her hot figure was looming, and one slender thigh was placed on the other long leg, fully showing her figure.

As expected of a model background, the figure really has nothing to say.

Ryan sighed in admiration and said, "It's perfect."

What happened next naturally needs no words to describe.

In mid-November, when the editing of "Saw 2" ended, Ryan officially began to prepare for the next film.

This film is different from "The Blair Witch" or "Saw". Not only has the investment increased a lot, but the plot is also different from the previous two films.

So Ryan agreed to introduce investment. After all, the film investment is not a small amount, at least 30 to 40 million US dollars. He doesn't want to take such a big risk alone. It is obviously a very wise choice to introduce investment.

Right now, 20th Century Fox is a very good choice.

As for Fox Searchlight Pictures, I am afraid that for a long time, they will not spend tens of millions of dollars for investment.

After a few days of contact, Helen finally sent good news that Twentieth Century Fox agreed to discuss the next film.

Ryan's next film is the famous "The Truman Show" in his previous life. The budget of the film is as high as tens of millions of dollars. Even if it is changed now, it will cost more than tens of millions of dollars.

In the negotiations with 20th Century Fox, Ryan didn't come forward, but handed over all to Helen. Sometimes the agent can tear the face off with the other party because of a little profit, but the director can't do that.

Facing the senior management of 20th Century Fox, Helen has no pressure at all. Anyway, there are far more film companies offering an olive branch to Ryan than 20th Century Fox, and she knows Ryan's character very well, even without any investment. , and will shoot without hesitation.

The introduction of investment is just to share some risks. With the investment of the seven major Hollywood film companies, many things can be avoided.

"My condition is very simple. Twentieth Century Fox can only occupy half of the film's investment, and the rest of the investment will be funded by Ryan Studios, and enjoy the same proportion of revenue sharing, including various copyrights, peripheral products, etc."

"Mr. Ryan himself, in addition to the director and screenwriter positions, must also serve as an executive producer. Of course, he can charge a symbolic executive producer fee."

As an executive producer, I don't want more rights, but to ensure my status in the crew.

"The total remuneration for the director and editor is 3 million US dollars, and all other details follow Hollywood rules."

"At the same time, they must have the final selection rights of actors and the final editing rights of the film."

In other words, during the filming period of the crew, all expenses related to Ryan, including assistants, secretaries and other personnel expenses, are paid by the crew.

This is the rule of Hollywood, including the director and the main actors of the film, almost all of them are like this. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

The conditions proposed by Helen, although it can't be called a lion's mouth, are still very harsh.

Like 20th Century Fox, the seven major Hollywood film companies rarely share the same proportion of revenue with others, even if it comes from Hollywood funds.

Generally speaking, funds from overseas can only get a share of the box office of the film, and funds from North American banks or Wall Street are also difficult to obtain copyright and peripheral product shares.

Only with funds from Hollywood, can a part of the copyright and peripheral products be shared.

Remember it's only a fraction, not an equal share of revenue.

However, 20th Century Fox did not have much objection to Ryan's director and editor's remuneration.

At the moment, the senior management of 20th Century Fox has a very serious face. Even if it is only the first negotiation, they can still feel the difficulty of the beautiful female manager in front of them.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Helen, we cannot accept such a harsh cooperation. Your studio can enjoy at most one-tenth of the film's investment ratio. As for the same ratio, it needs to be negotiated separately."

"There is also a film with a budget of 35 million US dollars, which is too high. The budget must be reduced, and it is best to control it within 10 million US dollars."

Faced with such conditions, Helen naturally couldn't agree. With only one-tenth of the film's investment ratio and a budget of 10 million US dollars, why bother to negotiate with 20th Century Fox, even without introducing investment.

I believe that many banks or investment companies will generously provide 10 million US dollars to invest in Ryan's next film, or simply continue to invest alone in the name of Ryan's studio.

Negotiations just started, and they broke up unhappy.
