Jeffrey Nachmanov looked at Mark Gordon in front of him, bit his nails anxiously, and then changed his feet to cross his legs, but he still felt uncomfortable sitting. He twisted around the chair, and the breath around him could not be settled.? Read a book

Mark moved his eyes from the script in his hand and looked at Jeffrey, "You say it again, what's going on?"

Jeffrey put down his right hand. Although he was a little impatient, he still tried his best to say patiently, "This version was written after I discussed with Roland. Roland insisted on using such routines. The details can be modified, but the framework is like this; this version is... I changed the framework structure of the lower part based on Lance's ideas and opinions, and re-arranged the plot."

"You have already said this, I mean, why is there a...Lance version?" Mark asked curiously with interest.

"I know," Jeffrey adjusted his sitting position. "Lance will come to meet you in person, and he will submit a version. But I just think that many of Lance's ideas are excellent. After writing a complete script, the overall feeling will be different. So, based on my own script, I made adjustments based on Lance's ideas." Jeffrey changed his sitting position again, and his pins and pins clearly showed his anxiety at the moment. "Of course, if you like it more after reading Lance's script, then...then..." Jeffrey tried to find a suitable sentence, and finally had to stop here, and stopped in an unknown way.

Mark slowly leaned on the back of the chair, casually opened a page of the script, and then fell into his own thinking. If Mark didn't understand at this time and was plotted by Lance, then he would not be able to be where he is today. Mark was not angry or surprised. This is Hollywood. Lance just seized an opportunity - he was really not satisfied with Roland's script, and the script of "City of God" is not only concise and light, but also has a huge amount of information. It can be said that it is a very skillful script, so he arranged a meeting with Lance. As a result, Lance grabbed it.

The last time he met Lance for a brief quarter of an hour, Mark was deeply impressed. He had become interested in Lance's script; but now, Lance even Jeffrey and Roland have made plans. This mind and ambition are indeed impressive. Looking back at the rumors about the power struggle within the circle in the Diorama Film industry, Mark thought it was a very interesting thing.

In 1995, there were only three major brokerage companies in Hollywood. One of the International Innovation Management Company had an internal strife. After this turmoil described as the "midnight political change", four full-fledged brokers left the International Innovation Management Company and created the Endeavor Elite Brokerage Company.

Now, eight years have passed, the blueprint of Hollywood brokerage companies has changed from "three majors" to "five majors", including international innovation management companies and Endeavour Elite Brokerage companies.

So, does Chaos Film have the hope of replicating this route? Does Lance have such a talented and powerful strategy? If Mark remembers correctly, Lance can be seen behind many of the works of Diorama Film. In fact, everyone is marveling at the emergence of "City of God", but for industry insiders, Lance is already a little famous as a producer.

Mark quickly withdrew his thoughts. He was not interested in the internal struggles of Diorama. He didn't care about Lance's calculations. What was important was the "day acquired". This work with a budget of over 100 million US dollars is one of the highlights of 20th Century Fox next year and cannot be missed.

Interests are what they value. As long as Lance can bring them benefits, whether it is Roland or Lance, there is no difference for Mark.

"So, you mean, Lance's script is better? It's better than Roland's." Mark certainly knew the relationship between Roland and Jeffrey, which was also the most curious part of how Lance convinced Jeffrey. Because Jeffrey was not that kind of personality that was first of all interests.?

"No, I won't say that." Jeffrey tried to keep himself objective. "Roland's script was more streamlined. In the second half of the story, a main line was used to connect the whole story, gradually narrowing the grand perspective, and then after the ending, the big one was seen from the small to sublimate the theme. The advantage of this is that the rhythm of the film will be very compact, and the core idea will be very clear. Focusing on the individual, it will also easily highlight the personal heroism under the background. The disadvantage is that after the branches of the story in the second half are relatively reduced, the climax will be weakened."

Speaking of this, Jeffrey paused. At this time, his irritability calmed down a little, and he devoted himself to the script's explanation. "Lance's idea is bigger, and relatively more bloated. He not only added the reactions of Asia and Europe in the first half to make the perspective more global; at the same time, he also expanded the protagonist's perspective in the second half, not only focusing on Jack and Sam's family, but also putting several families together to highlight the power of the family in the apocalypse. The advantage of this is that the story will become fuller, the climax will become more dense, especially the power of family reunion in the finale will be stronger. But the disadvantages are very obvious, which puts high demands on the director, and the control of the rhythm is definitely not that simple."

"So, do you prefer Lance's script?" Mark could hear that when Jeffrey mentioned Lance's script, despite trying to maintain an objective and neutral position, his tone was leaked inadvertently.

Jeffrey was choked by this sentence and turned his mind twice, "I like it and it's useless. The final decision is you. It's up to you to say which script you like."

Mark shook his head with a smile, "I'm asking for your opinion. As a screenwriter, your opinion." As strong as ever, he left almost no room for Jeffrey, and he was forced into a dead corner.

Jeffrey suddenly felt distressed and couldn't help but think of Roland. He and Roland mentioned the script and Lance.

Roland was very angry because he had already had great experience in filming disaster movies and had achieved outstanding results in the North American market. The reason why genre movies were "genres" was because they had fixed routines. Roland had already touched the routines of disaster movies. He believed that Lance's opinions would only make the movie bloated, and then the rhythm would be unbalanced, which would damage the climax of disaster movies. He also believed that this was just Jeffrey's first script. His ears were too soft and his opinions were shaky, which would easily delay the quality of the script.

That time, their discussion was unpleasant.

Jeffrey closed his eyes, "Yes, if it were me, I would prefer Lance's script."

Mark raised his eyebrows slightly, and he was not surprised by the answer. This was really an interesting thing. Mark didn't care about the climax and rhythm of the second half of the script, and he didn't understand these meticulous and ending things. As Jeffrey said, this is the director's job; but what Mark cares about is the global perspective in Lance's opinion and the core of returning to the family - in the disaster of the apocalypse, the family is the magic weapon for each other to support each other. Personal heroism applies to "day", but not to "acquired day".

Because "Sun" is to repel aliens and go all out once and for all; "the day after tomorrow" is a human disaster. After the blizzard, it needs all mankind to face it for a long time. One person's power is useless.

"Why don't you explain Lance's script in detail?" Mark did not express his opinion, but kept a calm tone and spoke.

Jeffrey opened his eyes, "Maybe you should come to Lance to explain to you, he always has many wonderful ideas, and many sparks can burst out in the process of writing the script." At this point, Jeffrey paused and admitted, "Although the script I wrote was written based on Lance's opinion, many of the details still need to be improved." After all, this was his first script, and there were indeed many shortcomings.

Mark looked down at the script in his hand, thought about it seriously, then sat upright and picked up the phone, "Karen, call me the number of Lancelot-Straello." After a while, the phone called, "Good afternoon, Mr. Strello, this is Mark-Godden of Twentieth Century Fox... I don't know if you are interested in coming to the company. We can talk in detail about the proposal you submitted last time... tomorrow at 2:00 p.m., what do you think...no problem, I'll wait again."

After hanging up the phone, Mark paused for a moment, then looked up, "Jeffley, we'll have another script discussion meeting tomorrow at 2pm."

Jeffrey was stunned for a moment and pointed at himself, "So, including me?" Mark didn't say anything, but just nodded affirmatively. Jeffrey was in a bit complicated, and he couldn't say whether he was happy or regretful for a while.

The summer season of 2oo3 has passed June, July, and August, and "Pirates of the Caribbean" has undoubtedly become the biggest appearance of the year. It has joined hands with "Find Nemo" to lead the annual box office rankings in North America, and even surpassed the highly anticipated "Matrix 2". It has regained its vitality for almost extinct Pirates movies, and Disney and Jerry Brookheimer Pictures are famous.

In the bustling hustle and bustle, several news made public one after another, causing reactions of both big and small.

Jerry Brookheimer announced that he would collaborate with Disney for the next work, "King Arthur", the heroine has locked in Keira Knightley, and he promised that this will be an epic masterpiece; later, Warner Bros. announced that "Troy" will start filming soon, starring Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom, co-produced by Project B and Diorama.

Two European myths have been adapted into movies, which have made people look forward to next year's summer season early.

Among them, the actions of the 20th Century Fox seemed much more restrained. They announced that the disaster blockbuster "the day after tomorrow" has been officially launched, and the film will be produced by Chaos Pictures. Lancelot-Stralo, who became famous not long ago, became famous by relying on "City of God", took the lead in one step and took over the " day after tomorrow" guide. But apart from that, the film seems to have no other gimmicks, and the topicality/side is more than a little behind.
