Chapter 4 Brokers
Kensington District is a famous wealthy district in London. The most famous building is Kensington Palace, where Princess Diana lives. It is just now that the summer of 1989 has just entered, and this palace that represents the majesty of the royal family is for most people.
About a street from Kensington Palace is the independent villa of Ryan and Nicole. In the living room of the villa, two women and one man sit around a white table, talking about something.
"What? Are you going to be my agent?" Ryan asked about a white woman in her thirties with a smart and capable face.
The woman looked at the boy opposite him carefully. He was about ten years old. The combined dark blue dress made him look a little thin. His soft light brown short hair shone with golden light, and his sky blue eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, and there were also cunning and mature brilliance.
Ryan was a little confused and looked at the sexy and tall Nicole Kidman sitting next to him, staring at him with his eyes full of drowning.
She tidied up her slightly scattered golden curly hair, and then she introduced, "Ryan, this is Ms. Pie? Jinsley, the agent I signed with some time ago, Pat, this is Ryan Jenkins."
"Nicole..."
Ryan wanted to speak but stopped. His little hand quietly held the girl's hand. No one saw the strange look flashing across his face. He seemed to be intentional and unintentional. He asked the female agent a few words and felt 90% sure.
Well, since she can be reborn, a great god sent Nicole Kidman to him and became his guardian, then it is normal for Nicole to meet her agent in her previous life in advance, right?
Yes, Ryan is very sure. Pi Jinsley opposite is the agent of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman in his previous life. I remember that she signed with Nicole and Tom Co. in 1990, and now she actually appears in London?
Sure enough, the wings of my little butterfly still flapped the trajectory of some people.
"You are distracted again." Nicole gently pinched Ryan's ear. The two have lived together for almost three years. His frequent distractedness was the most trouble for her.
Ryan showed a shy smile. He lived in London for two years and was strictly taught by etiquette teachers. He showed good etiquette and upbringing in every move.
"Ryan, I actually came to London with Nicole for you!" Jinsley's words gradually made the boy realize. He guessed something roughly, but he deliberately asked, "I? Why?"
Jinsley did not answer, took her handbag, took out three books from it, one was "Jurassic Park", one was "Ryan's Story Collection", and one is "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone".
It is the three books that Ryan has published and launched!
Now, if Ryan doesn't understand that the other party knows that the author of these three books is him, it would be a fool. His first reaction was to look at Nicole, but the Australian girl shook her head at him, indicating that the news was not leaked by her.
Ryan could only sigh, and thoughts turned around, guessing the reason why Jinsli appeared here.
It is obvious that the other party has his own information channels and certain skills. I don’t know where I learned that I was the author of these three books and knew that it was not easy to deal with a child. So I simply used roundabout tactics to find Nicole Kidman, who was closest to him. I also gained her trust and became her full-time agent. Then I traveled all the way to London.
In her previous life, she was able to make a fortune in Hollywood, and finally made Tom Cruise look dirty. She is indeed a person with vision and skill. She can find out who is the most suitable investment target before others pay attention.
Ryan was not surprised that Jinsley would come to him at all. In his previous life, he had some knowledge of the broker industry. He knew that many brokers would often take the initiative to attack after discovering targets worth investing, and it would be normal for him to be targeted by this female broker.
Not to mention anything else, just look at the three books on the table.
"Jurassic Park" became the champion of the best-selling books in the United States as early as 1987. Since then, it has dominated this position for more than 30 weeks, and sold millions of copies in the United Kingdom and the United States alone. It is the first choice for children's book in the eyes of many people.
Although "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is lukewarm, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just the beginning of a whole series. Since its launch last year, sales have exceeded 100,000 copies.
As for "Ryan's Story Collection", it integrates the short and medium-sized stories published by Ryan. Although it has only been published for a few months, it has unknowingly climbed to the best-selling list of the United States.
Most importantly, as long as people who have some understanding of the film industry will understand that the stories he wrote are very suitable for adapting into movies, and the benefits he will get can be imagined. Moreover, he is only nine years old now, who knows whether he will become the next Stephen King or Michael Clayton.
The fat sheep that came to the door? Ryan pinched his chin and thought about it.
"Ryan, do you want to go back to Los Angeles?" Nicole Kidman asked suddenly.
"Back to the United States?" Ryan frowned. Even though he had lived in Los Angeles for seven years, it was still a strange city.
"That's right, I'm going to go to Los Angeles in a few days to audition for a movie. Why don't we go back together?"
Nicole explained that Ryan gradually understood that with the release of "Crossing the Horizon", she must have attracted a lot of attention.
"What movie?" Ryan kept muttering in his heart, never be that movie, never be that movie...
"If the audition passes, you can work with Tom Cruise!"
This sentence is no less than a thunderbolt for Ryan. Ni is one of his favorite movie stars in his previous life. No one in the world knows better than him what will happen if he participates in "Thunder Ambition".
She would fall in love with Tomco and get married after the movie was released. Soon after, there was an irreconcilable conflict. In the end, she was injured and was completely injured. During the divorce, the notorious Italian was hired by Tom. The infamous Italian took the handle and had to sign the divorce agreement in humiliation.
The inertia of the wheel of history is so great? It takes only two years to pull Nicole's deviated life trajectory back to the original road? This is definitely not the result he wants to see. After more than two years of dependence on each other, a deep friendship has long developed between him and her. He will never allow anyone he likes and loves deeply to be hurt, even if it is not possible!
"Don't you want to go back to Los Angeles?" Nicole was a little surprised. It was his hometown.
"Oh, no, I just suddenly remembered something else." Ryan changed the subject without missing a trace, looked at the female agent, and asked very directly, "Pate, are you Mr. Cruise's agent?"
"Of course not."
Although it was a little strange, Jinsley denied without any hesitation, "In fact, there is only Nicole in my name."
Ryan breathed a sigh of relief. He knew Nicole’s yearning for Hollywood. Since that’s the case, then go back to Los Angeles. After several years of preparation, plan... start!
He still didn't believe it. If he strongly opposed it, he would not be as good as a cream boy with such a long time of love and relationship.
What's more, if he has a mind or not, he will naturally use some means to make Mr. Tom Cruise retreat.
To enter that Vanity Fair, a skilled agent is necessary. Ryan soon reached an oral agreement with Jinsley. As for the formal contract, it will be approved by his full-time lawyer, Mr. Wilson.
Since he was leaving London, there would be a series of things to deal with. Ryan visited the tutors who taught him one by one, especially several masters of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Although they were hired by Nicole for a large sum of money, it would be difficult for Ryan to have the musical literacy today without their careful teaching. You should know that he can now make some not-too-complex music, and the piano and guitar are also at the professional level.
After going to school with Nicole to go through the exit procedures, the rest was packing luggage.
He doesn't have many things. The instruments he usually practices are just ordinary brands. You can buy them again after returning to Los Angeles. The most valuable thing is a whole suitcase of manuscripts. If a friend from his previous life reads them, he will definitely smash his chin on the floor. Look at the names on these manuscripts - "Harry Potter and the Room of Secret", "The Prisoner of Harry Potter and Azkaban", "The Sixth Sense", "Titanic", etc.
Ryan thought about it and took out the script "The Sixth Sense" and the novel "Harry Potter and the Room of Secret", which should be something you can use immediately after you go back.
Of course they are all copies, so he will not give them to others casually, otherwise, what if they are sold?
"Ryan, do you need my help?" Pai Jinsley knocked on the door and walked in. She saw the manuscript full of letters in the suitcase, and couldn't help feeling dizzy.
"Pate, this is the second episode of Harry Potter. After you go back, you hand it over to the "Alien" publisher. This is "The Sixth Sense". You can read the script of the movie first. If possible, copy a few more copies and submit them to major film companies." He directly handed over the two manuscripts. It is difficult for Hollywood newcomers to make a comeback, so he can use the script sea to bombard. Now that he has an agent, he can leave these errands and tricks to her.
"The play... script?" Jinsli was a little surprised. She quickly looked through it. The more she looked, the brighter she became. She gradually realized that she might have opened up a gold mine. "Leave it to me to deal with it. In fact, I have some relationship with major film companies."
It turns out that God treats me well! Ryan's mouth is tugged, it's much better than random shots. I really can't underestimate Py? Jinsli.
