With Sanders' hard work, Sean finally got the role of "The Aviator" as he wished. As for the contract, it was all inconsistencies. This was easy to negotiate under the premise that both parties were interested.

Of course, Frederick was as dissatisfied as ever: "6 million, only 6 million, Scorsese became so stingy. You know, you got 8 million in "Cold Mountain", and I bet that if they look for Brad Pitt, they would at least offer a high price of 10 million! Damn, it is said that the investment has exceeded 100 million, but they don't even want to give the extra pay."

Sean just smiled at this. He was not Brad Pitt, nor Leonardo DiCaprio, nor had he worked with Scorsese, so he would definitely not get the highest pay. Generally speaking, as long as he has not yet reached the status of a superstar, he will work with a big director like Scorsese out of respect - well, in other words, if he knows how to be a human being, he will reduce his pay. Some actors with a certain degree of popularity can even only have tens of thousands of dollars for a supporting role.

This is the power of a great director, so Sean doesn't care about the pay of 6 million yuan. Anyway, it's just different from the past. If he had just arrived in Los Angeles more than three years ago, let alone the pay of 6 million yuan, 600,000 is enough to make him laugh from his dream, but now he no longer makes money by pay.

However, Frederick needs, and a pay of 6 million means he can only get 600,000, which is a 200,000 yuan less than "Cold Mountain", which is really bad. However, Sean knew that only a small part of his dissatisfaction came from the pay, and more because Sanders officially became Sean's agent.

"I don't understand, Sean, why do you still need an agent? Am I not doing well enough? You know, after one agent, you will have to pay an additional 10% commission in the future. In the past, you only spent 10%, and in the future you will have to spend 20%. After Sean told Frederick this decision, he asked half-truely.

"It's very simple. I hope you can be my agent forever." Sean blocked him back with just one sentence.

It's very simple. Before that, when there were no agents, contacts with public relations, communication with various media, and creating images, extinguishing or creating scandals were all handled by Frederick, and these were all rights. After having an agent, Sanders was responsible for all these, and Frederick only served Sean's film affairs, so his mood was understandable.

However, understanding is understanding, Sean will not change his mind. As he said, in addition to making his career more standardized, it is indeed for the sake of Frederick. The interests of clients and brokers cannot be consistent forever, so it is necessary to prevent brokers from sacrificing clients for their own interests. Frederick and Sean have a very good ability along the way, and they are also quite happy to cooperate with each other. If you get up because of this, it will be too much of a loss.

Therefore, decentralization is necessary. Sean understood this truth from the beginning, and then called Sanders from San Francisco. Now that he has proved to be independent, he can naturally start. Of course, some of the positions of agents and agents overlap, but more of them have their own strengths. And even if they overlap, there are two different opinions that can be done better.

Not to mention Frederick's grievance complaints for the time being, after signing the movie contract, Sean quickly got the script, communicated further with Scorsese, and then began to figure out the role in a targeted manner. Howard Hughes in the script was somewhat different from what Sean imagined. The focus of the story was on him making planes, flying planes, and fighting with Pan American president Juan Tripp. This is fine. After all, the name is directly called "The Pilot". In addition, there is also a super big aircraft like Spruce Goose, which has not been broken yet. It would be strange if the main line was not this.

Then, Hughes's obsession with cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder was interspersed in the middle, but judging from the text of the script, this detail did not seem to have any important effect on the plot. Except for the end of Tripp's death, Hughes did not dare to show up in public. He used his influence to make Congress establish an investigation committee after the end of World War II, and asked Hughes to appear in court to make statements, hoping to defeat him in one fell swoop.

This is the final plot, which can be regarded as the biggest climax of the entire movie, but in fact, according to the information collected by Sean, although there are rumors, there is no obvious evidence to prove that Congress has established an investigation committee and Tripp is pushing it later. Of course, for the sake of the drama of the movie, it is possible to modify it like this. At this time, the biographical movie is not a documentary.

Back to the cleanliness, in most cases, this is just a detail that shows the protagonist's traits, which is no different from the reason why his mother warned Hughes to be careful of cholera at the beginning. As for those gossips, they only focused on Katherine Hepburn and Ava Gardner to show it. Well, with Katherine Hepburn is one of the few loves in Hughes's life, and of course he should be qualified to appear on the screen. It's just Ava Gardner... Well, for the sake of her being the only woman who has knocked off Hughes' teeth, it's okay to join her.

However, since there is a detailed mention of "Hell Angel", which Hughes spent millions to produce after coming to Hollywood, it would be a bit inappropriate to mention the first actress Jane Halu, who made it famous and won, just mentioned it only a little, right?

But then again, Sean is just an actor, and this is the work of the screenwriter and director, and the title of the film is "The Aviator". It is definitely impossible to focus on the playboy's scandal as the main line, and there must be some choice.

"If people in the future want to make my biographical movies, I definitely wouldn't want anyone to focus entirely on the name Playboy." Sean sometimes thinks this way.

Well, let’s not talk about whether he can be qualified to make biographical movies for him in the future. Even if there is, as long as he is still alive, the audience and media will still focus on the name of Playboy. If they want them to say good things, it is a treatment that only dead people can get. Just like "The Aviator", many details are different from the facts, but this does not prevent the screenwriter from describing this way.

However, if Hughes is still alive, even very young and strong, the media and audience will only pay more attention to his gossip.

This is Sean's personal experience. Looking at the guys, their eyes will only focus on who he was dating, who he was dating now, and who he would date in the future. As for his efforts, just like now, he has read a lot of information for the role of Hughes, read books he has looked at, and learned a lot of etiquette from the 1940s and 1950s. He imitated people's behavior and speech at that time, practiced the southern accent for a long time, and spent hundreds of thousands to make a video of only ten minutes for Scorsese.

Or maybe when filming "Cold Mountain", I read the original novel and script repeatedly and compared it continuously, so I gave surprising suggestions when Mingla made up the plot of Sarah. As an actor and as an excellent actor, these are all necessary homework. Although Sean has various shortcomings and a serious problem with good female sex, it has never been pulled down.

However, the media cannot see these, and even if you see them, they will ignore them. You are working hard on the report. Please, who can read them? Who doesn’t work hard? Let’s let those readers who only like gossip, enjoy their sense of superiority after reading them, pay for newspapers, magazines and click on the website. Who cares whether you have worked hard? Isn’t it true that you are constantly flirting with women?

Indeed, this is the fact, but even if he told these people with great sincerity that it would be unfair to just see me dating women and not trying hard. They would only answer, who made you not show it, or who made you have an affair with so many women, and others worked harder than you, what others did for which role, etc., anyway, they always had excuses.

So Sean is too lazy to care about so much. Just do your own thing. It’s not that no one supports him. Now it’s better to focus on howard Hughes in "The Aviator". Although the rest of the script is different from Hughes in reality, and it’s different from what Sean imagines, most of them are still the same, but some details need to be modified.

For example, Sean designed a knuckle rub for Hughes, showing the details of obsessive-compulsive disorder, but the script uses constantly washing hands with well-preserved soap to highlight his obsession with cleanliness. There is even a scene where Hughes came out of the bathroom and washed his hands with soap, and his hands were wet and didn't know what to do. He just looked at the common towel placed on the sink and was stunned.

Although there are not many descriptions in the script, Sean can outline the scene in his mind, which makes him feel a little sad because the emotions when rubbing his knuckles must be applied to washing his hands, and it must be further deepened.

In addition, Scorsese also made many requests to him, one of which was to practice flying a plane.

Well, this is a mistake when Sean first figured out the role. He said that the title of the film is called "The Aviator". So Hughes will definitely make and fly the plane as the main line. At that time, he will have to shoot on the plane, and there will be close-up shots of flying into the air. Although it must be done in a studio with green or blue curtains and will not really fly, he must have some experience in flying the plane, otherwise he will perform well in other places and have no feeling on it, which is not good.

"It's okay, it's just flying a plane." Sean didn't mind at all, and soon went to Sanders, who was an agent, to contact a flying club.

Propellers, and they don't fly very high, should be easier to learn than jets. Farmers can drive propellers and sprinkle pesticides. Sean has no reason not to learn it. Anyway, it will take July to start the phone, and there is enough time.
