Chapter 147 Fight for

"Hi Harvey,"

Ryan let the fat man into the living room of the suite. Unexpectedly, there was another person behind him, a middle-aged woman...

"Ryan, don't you welcome me?"

Tina Brown waved to him, her short blonde hair and neat career suit looked extremely capable.

"Of course you are welcome, please come in Ms. Brown." Ryan quickly made a gesture of invitation.

"You can call me Tina."

"Well, Tina, and Harvey, please sit down."

He glanced at the fat man and the other party gave Ryan a look you know.

Harvey Weinstein was able to become the God of Public Relations of the Years and caused so many Oscar murders. It was not only related to the academy, but also necessary to have a good relationship with mainstream media. It seems that Tina Brown took the initiative to find him.

But what does this woman who is good at hype and publicity come to do to herself? Could it be that the old thing is brought up again?

"Ryan, I heard that your contract with Alien will expire at the end of the year, and has not been renewed yet?"

Westerners speak directly, and after serving coffee, Tina Brown said what she wants.

"Yes, but the Harry Potter series will continue to work together."

Although this news is secret, for some people, it is no different from lice on bald heads.

"Oh~"

Tina Brown seemed a little disappointed.

Ryan knew very well that behind Vanity Fair was Newhouse Group, one of the giants in the publishing industry.

However, he is not ready to end the Harry Potter series' collaboration with "Alien", which involves too many things, and he does not have the intention or energy to find a new owner for the book.

Since the second half of the year, Pai Jinsli has held many negotiations with them, and the conditions they have won are already good enough.

"What about the other aspects?" Tina Brown's eyes flashed.

"I'm not going to sign other contracts except Harry Potter." Ryan waved his hand and said.

"If you can, how about opening a column in Vanity Fair? Essays, novels, and comments at will." Tina Brown was like a woman with a head woman. "Of course, if you want to serialize novels like Harry Potter or Jurassic Park, we are even more welcome."

Ryan's lips trembled. The number of times he has watched "Vanity Fair" is limited, so I really don't remember the above statement that there is a serialization.

"How is it, Ryan?" Tina Brown asked.

No wonder she is so enthusiastic. Since the last Oscar party, she has listened to Ryan's opinion and held several special parties in the name of "Vanity Fair" after the White House press conference, and the effect is not very good.

This woman never forgets to promote Vanity Fair! Ryan can only sigh like this, "Let's do it, Tina, I'll give you an answer before I go back to Los Angeles."

Seeing that Ryan did not refuse, Tina Brown had a smile on her face. In other words, she was about to prepare to negotiate with Pi Jinli when she went back.

Ryan really plans to respond. This magazine has a huge influence in the mainstream circle and will have many benefits for the future.

Tina Brown is a typical strong woman in the workplace. After the business talks, he met Harvey Weinstein again because he had something to talk to Ryan, so he quickly stood up and said goodbye.

"This woman is extraordinary, Ryan, having a good relationship with her will help you and Nicole."

After seeing off Tina Brown and Harvey Weinstein, they said, after several years of cooperation, there was some friendship between the two sides.

"Yeah." Ryan nodded and said casually, "Harvey, the new awards season is coming. Are there any plans?"

Over the past few years, Harvey Weinstein's public relations ability has soared. Sometimes he doubts whether this guy will cause a bloody crime in advance.

"The key point is "Yihai Xiongfeng". You should hope to get the nomination for the best movie. Jack Nicholson is in the PR for Best Supporting Actor. I have signed up for Nicole's Best Supporting Actress." Harvey Weinstein asked back, "What are your plans, Ryan?"

Ryan walked into the bedroom without answering, took out the script of "The Sugar-Coated Trap" from his backpack, took it to the living room, and handed it to Harvey Weinstein.

"This is based on a novel. The copyright of the movie is in my hands. Like "Yihai Xiongfeng", it is a lawyer's theme, and I have written all the relevant suggestions in it."

This script is the most difficult script that Ryan wrote after "The Sixth Sense". Not only did he search for many legal books, but he also slightly accelerated the pace of the movie and changed a lot of bugs in it.

The script produced by Ryan Jenkins, plus recommended actors and suggestions written in it, is almost equal to the box office guarantee now.

Harvey Weinstein's eyes lit up. In his opinion, even European directors like Luc Besson could shoot excellent commercial movies after accepting Ryan's advice, let alone Hollywood, which is more commercialized.

"A supporting actress in it was specially prepared for Nicole, I have a note." Ryan reminded.

"no problem."

Then, Harvey Weinstein looked at Ryan. There was no free lunch in the world, and everyone understood this truth.

"If possible, Harvey, guarantee the nomination for the best supporting actress for Nicole in "Yihai Xiongfeng"." Ryan slowly tapped his finger and paused for a while before saying, "Is there any hope for the nomination for the best supporting actress for Nat?"

"It's very difficult." Harvey Weinstein said bluntly, "The theme of the movie is a bit troublesome."

"Work for it, is it OK, Harvey?" If there is no difficulty, why should Ryan find him on his head, "It's just a nomination."

"Ryan, if nothing unexpected happens, Nicole can be nominated for Best Supporting Actress for the second time, we can..."

"Harvey, I don't know much about PR as you do, but I think qualifications are also an important part of it." The meaning of Ryan's words is already very obvious. "Although Nicole is a first-line actress now, I think it should be essential to accumulate enough qualifications, right?"

Harvey Weinstein smiled. The little guy opposite... No, he should be considered a powerful figure in Hollywood. He set the direction he wanted to go early for Nicole Kidman - the highest peak of the smooth road.

Others say that Ryan Jenkins met Nicole Kidman for his luck, and she helped him get rid of the dark life, but in the eyes of the person who worked with the longest time, the fact is exactly the opposite. From the day he started writing, Ryan Jenkins designed the path to go in the future. Nicole Kidman was the one who was blessed by God, and was lucky to pick up Ryan from the Avenue of Stars.

"Well, Ryan, I'll do my best, but I can't guarantee it." Harvey Weinstein said.

"Just find Pat for necessary expenses." Ryan knew very well that even if Harvey Weinstein came to do this a few years later, it would still be quite difficult.

Harvey Weinstein has long regarded Ryan as his peer. He has cooperated with the two players more times, so some things are naturally tacit.

Sending Harvey Weinstein and Ryan’s work in New York was completed. He packed up his belongings and prepared to return to Los Angeles.

Helping Natalie win the nomination for the best supporting actress is also a wish for her. Even though it may not be a big surname at the moment, she always has to give it a try.

After the crew left New York and headed for Paris and embarked on a European publicity journey, Ryan also returned to Los Angeles.

He heard a lot of news from Europe. It is said that "The Killer Leon" was released in a hot day. After winning the North American weekly box office rankings in the first week, many European media and filmmakers were excited, believing that this was a successful counterattack for European films and that Hollywood was nothing great.

As for the Americans hailed this movie as Ryan Jenkins' work, the main investor was Miramax, which was subconsciously ignored by them, and they also turned a blind eye to the reality of the film's commercialization.

It's not right to say this. After all, "The Killer Leon" has not been released on the European continent yet. I just don't know what European filmmakers who pursue "artistic" will feel after watching it.

Maybe he would scold the screenwriter for writing something, why is there not real love between Leon and Matilda!

Of course, the version released outside of North America is a directorial edited version of Luc Besson, which includes some lifelike plots of Leon and Matilda, as well as scenes such as her following him to observe murder skills. These appearances in the United States may attract criticism, and there is no such problem in Europe.

Before returning to Los Angeles, Ryan gave Vanity Fair reply and spoke to Tina Brown with a phone call. Then in just a few days, Pai Jinsley agreed with the other party.

"Vanity Fair" focused on reporting this news in the subsequent issue of the magazine, and also introduced Ryan's past. This is a win-win situation for both Ryan and Vanity Fair. The sales of the magazine in this issue rose by nearly five percentage points.

As for what to write, it is easy for Ryan, who is familiar with the general trend of future film development. He has copied such a large number and scale of things over the years, and has already practiced writing styles.

Ryan won’t comment on other movies. He is not a professional film critic and will not do such jealous things. Besides, if it really doesn’t work, just write a few novels. After writing the short story, you can make a long series of novels. Anyway, the English translation series I have read in my previous life is not just Harry Potter.

In a blink of an eye, 1992 was about to pass. Ryan found that he had been busy for a year, but there were not many works. The only movies released were "The Killer Leon", and his solo album "Ryan Jenkins", and there were two books, one Harry Potter and the other "Resident Evil" criticized by book critics.

Next year will be the most important year, and "Jurassic Park" will come strongly. Even "The True Lies" and "The Lion King" may be released, and it will inevitably be a year of harvest.

In addition, I don’t know if Steve Jobs will feel bleeding after the loss in the new year comes out. As long as he sells it again, he must try to buy Pixar.

Scott Swift has been preparing for this for a long time, as long as the funds are in place...

Ryan couldn't help but feel a headache. He said a thousand and ten thousand, but the money problem is the most prominent and most important. (To be continued.)
