283. Chapter 283 Getting busy again

"Don't look at me like that, I don't have any ideas right now." Seeing Sean glance over, Frederick hurriedly raised his hands.

"I don't want to have a head-on confrontation with New Line. I just want to find an opportunity to embarrass them, just like they did to disgust me with their little tricks." Sean raised his eyebrows and said.

"I'm not prepared for anything, where do you ask me to find ideas?" Frederick complained.

Then, the two fell silent, and after a few minutes, they both looked in Sanders' direction.

The latter was startled by their bright eyes, but he quickly stabilized his emotions and gave the answer after a moment of thinking: "Okay, I do have an idea, why doesn't Sean use his best advantage?"

"Be more specific." Sean made a gesture.

"It's very simple. What are you most famous for now? You have a good vision, don't you?" Sanders shrugged, "You are very good at choosing, aren't you? From scripts to songs to investments, you always have your eye on what you want.

Very good."

He glanced at Frederick as he spoke. The agent immediately pulled his collar and grinned as if he wanted to hum. He looked unhappy.

Sean didn't notice, or noticed but didn't bother to pay attention: "So what you mean is..."

"Find a script that you think is good but was abandoned by New Line, and then make it into a movie and get a good box office." Sanders raised his hands and raised them.

"This...sounds good..." Sean scratched his head, "But there is no such suitable script in reality. When I got the script of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", I never thought about the final box office success.

So high."

"It doesn't have to be that kind, even if it's just a small profit, as long as it's a script that New Line abandoned." Sanders added.

"Then do you have any news?" Sean asked directly.

Sanders stopped talking, and then the two of them looked towards Frederick, just like they did a few minutes ago.

"Hmm..." The agent blinked, but unfortunately the situation in front of him didn't change at all. Sean and Sanders were staring at him closely, waiting for him to speak. Obviously, he couldn't escape.

"Okay," Frederick finally said after a few minutes of hesitation, "there is indeed a script."

Both Sean and Sanders were stunned. They actually did this just to force the agent to agree to help pay attention. After all, there are not many good scripts, and there are even fewer good ones that are ignored. They didn't expect that he would immediately

The answer was "yes".

"Of course, I'm not sure this script is good, I just heard a little bit," Frederick continued, "You know, Sean, the screenwriter and director of "Death Comes 2" have been replaced."

"Yes, James and New Line had some conflicts about the sequel, so they left him and found another screenwriter to work with Jeffrey." Sean nodded.

It's really a pity. The first movie originally conceived by James Huang had a happy ending and was very artistic, and it was also filmed. However, as we all know, Hollywood will never tell the story of a movie to death, so I left it here.

The ending of the sequel is certain, so Huang's ending can only be released on DVD.

Therefore, it was inevitable that there would be some friction between him and New Line. After the movie was sold well, New Line began to want to produce a second episode. During the creation, there was another friction with Huang, so he was left aside. Even for ordinary directors

, as long as there is a conflict, the film company will not take it down without hesitation, not to mention that Huang is of Chinese descent.

The second part of "Dead Man" started filming at the beginning of this year. New Line initially hoped that Sean would continue to star. Of course, as he became famous, this was definitely impossible. Later, they hoped that he could continue to star.

Cameo, but the ensuing issue of the division of "The Lord of the Rings" made them never mention it again, and it was foreseeable that at least Robert Shea and Michael Lynn would still be at New Line for one day, and Sean would not even think about interacting with them again.

cooperate.

However, Sean doesn't care. If you can directly cooperate with the subsidiary's parent company, will you still care about the subsidiary?

"You mean James has any new ideas?" Sean asked at this time.

"In fact, the one who came up with the idea was the screenwriter named Eric Brace who joined "Death Comes 2"," Frederick shrugged. "He had been imagining an epigraph a few years ago, which was about

...I forgot what it was, I only heard them say a few words at the party. In short, it was probably that someone could go back in time and change some things, fill those regrets, and make their life more perfect. But every time

Going back to the past for the first time, although it prevented some things, it also caused more problems, like...that effect..."

"Butterfly effect!" Sean said while holding his chin in thought, "A butterfly in Texas flapped its wings, and a storm formed in the Brazilian rainforest!"

"Sorry, what are you talking about?" Frederick looked completely confused.

"Hmm...I don't know either. I only know that there is a scientific explanation, which is...making a change in an inconspicuous place has a huge impact..." Sean scratched his head, "But...

You can help me ask him out."

"Are you serious?" The agent was surprised.

"I am indeed very interested in this subject." Sean chuckled.

Of course, if I remember correctly, this should be the script of "The Butterfly Effect". After watching this movie in his previous life, he went out of his way to understand the related nouns. He was somewhat deeply impressed by the movie, and he also

I know that except for the first one, all the subsequent sequels are pretty bad. So, I might as well try to spread the word first, let everyone know that New Line doesn't like this script, and then buy it and produce it myself.

It would be interesting to sell the rights back to New Line and let them make a sequel.

Just when Sean was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door, and then a female voice came in from outside the glass door: "Hey, Fred, the role you recommended to me last time was simply ****

!”

This somewhat aggressive voice immediately attracted Sean's attention. He turned around and saw a young girl with long brown hair wearing jeans and a thin-shoulder top appearing at the door. She was looking at Fu with her hands on her hips angrily.

Redrick. She is a typical American big girl. She is a bit rough and lacks refinement, but she is tall, voluptuous and charming.

The young girl immediately noticed Sean in the office, but she didn't mean to be embarrassed. Instead, she stepped forward and said hello: "Hello, Sean."

Well, the entire office was transparent, unless Frederick lowered the curtains, so she must have seen them before coming in. In this case, she just barged in. It seemed that Frederick made her very happy.

Not satisfied.

"Hello." Sean nodded in response, then showed a questioning look.

"I'm Jessica, Jessica Bell, nice to meet you." The girl who introduced herself smiled, which was a bit charming, but when she turned her head to look at Frederick, it changed into

dissatisfied.

"Wait a minute, Jesse," the agent raised his hands, "I have something to do here, give me five minutes, okay?"

Looking at Sean and then at Frederick, she took a deep breath: "Okay, five minutes."

Then, after saying sorry to Sean, Jessica Biel walked out angrily.

"This client of yours is really unique." Sean asked teasingly as he looked at the young girl outside through the floor-to-ceiling glass.

"Fortunately," Frederick sighed, "It was precisely because of her personality that I found a way to sign her, so in this situation... of course, at least she has one advantage, she will definitely do what she promised.

arrive."

"Oh? It sounds like you are blaming or mocking someone?" Sean crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows.

"Really? You must have heard wrong." The agent put on a serious look.

Sean laughed: "Okay, okay, people are different - why don't you sign another Jessica? The most famous Jessica in Endeavor?"

"Because I can't poach my own company!" Frederick rolled his eyes, then narrowed his eyes as he thought of something, "What, you want me to get Jessica Alba's agency, and then you can...

…”

"Why not?" Sean whistled, "That is indeed a beautiful girl, and I heard she is a good girl."

"Good girl?" Frederick sneered, and his expression became a little jumpy, "Yes, a good girl, but not a good girl in the traditional sense."

Sean couldn't help but be stunned: "What? Does she have something... hmm?"

He made a gesture of inquiry, but the agent just shrugged: "Nothing, just some rumors, but Sean, I personally suggest you not to practice too deeply with her."

"From your tone, does she have snake hair?" Sean asked seriously.

"Okay, Sean, there are still people waiting outside." Sanders interrupted at this time.

Look at Jessica Biel outside. She is walking in circles with her head lowered, kicking her legs from time to time, looking a little irritable.

"Okay, that's it for today," Sean gave up prying. "It's all up to you, Fred, to negotiate with Miramax and contact the screenwriter to meet."

"No problem." Frederick agreed immediately.

Then, Sean took Sanders and passed Jessica at the door. Although she nodded politely, she did not say hello. Moreover, even though the sound was no longer heard after closing the door,

But she could still be seen through the floor-to-ceiling glass. She stood condescendingly in front of Frederick, waving her arms sometimes and asking questions, while Frederick could only sit on the chair and respond helplessly.

"Cheer up, Sandy, you keep silent every time you come here. Aren't you like that girl before, who had to have tit-for-tat with Fred from time to time?" Sean asked his best friend half-jokingly at this time.

Assistant Jane.

Sanders glanced at him, and then sighed after a while: "I don't have my mind right now."

"Okay, okay, how about this, I'll give you a salary increase and allow you to find an assistant for yourself," Sean said seriously.

"Okay, Sean, I'll adjust soon, and she's already gone to New York for work, so you don't have to worry about it." Sanders rolled his eyes.
