"Tess, have you forgotten your notebook?" Catherine noticed that Tess was leaving in a hurry and had forgotten her notebook. At this time, there was the sound of Tess going downstairs and closing the door. It was too late.

With a confused expression on Sigourney Weaver's face, she picked up Tess's notebook...

Everyone is curious, just like Tess was curious and peeked at Catherine's computer memo. Now it was Catherine's turn to peek at Tess's notes.

Tess wrote down in her notebook the schedule for working with Jack Traynor to meet with Mr. Teske, and the plan to meet with the media assistant next Monday to make a proposal.

Catherine flipped through the pages, and her expression suddenly changed, "This slut, this hateful little secretary!" She jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.

"Cut!"

These scenes were shot very well, and it can be seen with the naked eye that the scenes between the two female leads are much more exciting than those played by Harrison Ford.

However, Ronald did not mention this matter. He invited the two heroines and Ford to taste a high-end Japanese sushi. The ingredients and chefs were flown in from Japan.

…

"Last night's dinner was really wonderful..."

The next day, the scene where Tess's identity was revealed was filmed. The filming location was very classic, an old-fashioned round table, so that the two M&A teams, the buyer Teske Enterprises, and the seller Metro Broadcasting, could all sit down equally.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Tess and Jack’s costumes are all inherited from yesterday’s shooting. They met in the foyer and started talking.

"Shall I sing solo today?" Tess became more and more confident in herself.

"Of course, no problem." Jack was very satisfied with his partner's progress. "Teske and Armstrong are over there. Let's wait and see what color smoke comes out of their chimneys."

This sentence is an allusion to the Holy See. Every time the Pope changes, a meeting is held in the Vatican to decide on the candidate. The ballots are burned every day, and the people can see the smoke from the chimney.

If no candidate is elected, straw will be burned together, which is black smoke. After the next person is elected, only the ballot papers will be burned, which is white smoke. The most recent person to use this method of burning smoke to succeed the pope was Paul, who was born in Poland.

II.

Jack used this to describe the outcome of the conversation between buyers and sellers.

"My colleague has a new M&A idea, would you like to take a look at it?" Melanie Griffiths asked Harrison Ford while waiting for the M&A meeting to begin. She also wanted to make sure that Katherine was talking about

Not the truth.

"Of course, if you ask me for help, I will." Of course Jack said no problem.

"Are there no moral concerns? For example, if others plagiarize..."

"Of course not. I've always been very careful, and nothing like this has ever happened."

"What's wrong with you? Why do you ask?"

"I'm just a little nervous."

"You'll be fine..."

The two were talking, and the two heavyweights over there had already come up with the results.

Everyone sat down for a meeting, and Armstrong announced that Metro Broadcasting would be sold to Teske Enterprises for $68.5 million.

"boom……"

There was a loud noise, and Catherine jumped in on crutches, "Thank God I arrived, this woman is a liar, she plagiarized my idea." Then she raised her crutches, pointed at Tess and said:

"This woman is my secretary, she is not a manager at all. Jack, you have been deceived."

"What are you talking about? Tess can't be your secretary." Jack Traynor saw that Tess's wit and tenacity contributed to Tesker's interest in the transaction. How could she be a secretary?

"Then ask her? Is she my secretary? Tess?"

"I can explain...this is my idea." After Tess's identity was revealed, she was very embarrassed and could only speak in a low voice.

"Oh my God, you really are her secretary," Jack Traynor also noticed something was wrong.

"This woman took advantage of my broken bones to plagiarize my ideas and pretend to be my colleagues. This was my idea, my project!" Catherine had the victory in hand and sat down carelessly.

"This is what I think!" Tess shouted, "I can explain, Jack, that she was the one who lied." Melanie's voice became smaller and smaller. She knew that it would be difficult to explain clearly in a short time, and she was full of embarrassment and shame.

In her heart, she suddenly didn't know what to do. Tess stood up and walked out.

"Okay, the name of the game is that we finalize the details of the merger and acquisition." Harrison Ford had a baffled expression on his face. He opened the thick merger and acquisition contract and began to continue working.

"Cut!"

Ronald stopped the filming and led everyone in applause.

After filming this scene, only the final ending and some location scenes that had nothing to do with the main storyline were left to the second team for reshoots.

"Excellent. Let's go have a feast today..."

…

Several celebrities finished their dinner and went to enjoy the weekend.

Ronald still has to continue working, looking at yesterday's dailies and preparing for the finale shooting that will start next Monday.

He picked up the phone and chatted with Cameron Crowe, "I don't think the ending is strong enough. Do you have any good ideas?"

"You want a more powerful ending?" Crowe was in the apartment, communicating with Ronald every night, revising the following script. It has been several weeks, and he has become accustomed to this way of working.

"The previous scenes are so exciting. The scenes with several actresses opposite each other will whet the audience's appetite. I'm worried that the original ending won't be able to keep it down."

"This is a classic Hollywood twist, why aren't you satisfied? Tess proves that she is the original author of the plan to acquire radio broadcasting, Teske believes her, Catherine is fired, and finally Tess and Jack

They ended up kissing, classic Hollywood ending."

"I always feel that this is not possible. We have revealed enough information before, and the audience will more or less guess the ending. We have to go beyond this and give them something they did not expect..."

Ronald deeply felt that if the early filming was too exciting, it would cause the script's structure to be unbalanced. Later scenes would have to be added to suppress it, so that when the audience walked out of the cinema, they were still thinking about the plot and recommending it to their friends.

"Okay, let me think of a way. At this time, you need a Billy Wilder-style reverse ending..." Cameron Crowe scratched his head, wondering who is best at this kind of powerful ending.

, and it has to be his idol, the famous director and screenwriter of the 1950s, Billy Wilder.

"Hmm, do you have any inspiration? Let's do this... let's have an interview tomorrow when the crew is off. No, those inspectors from the Screenwriters Guild are still supervising me. I have to think of a good place to get rid of them. In this way, I have arranged for
