    After George discussed with Glenn for a while, he hurried to his office. He had been too busy with work recently and kept dragging out the plot. Even he felt a little embarrassed

    "Mr. George!" James happened to walk downstairs and came up. After seeing George, he immediately shouted with a happy face, "Are you busy now?"

    George looked at James, who was slightly different today, and asked curiously, "Why do you feel so happy? Have you got a girlfriend?"

    James blinked: "Of course notit's about my sister Angie. This is great news."

    "Oh? What's the good news?" George suddenly became interested.  Angelina hasn't contacted him for a long time. I don't know how this girl is doing alone in New York, but looking at James's expression of wanting to grab a loudspeaker and run to the Avenue of Stars to spread the news, he must be confused.  Not bad.

    "Angie called me last night and said that she had received an invitation to direct. Although it was a supporting role, this was his second time on the big screen."

    "Good job!" George nodded, "But what kind of movie is it?"

    James was stunned for a moment: "I didn't ask"

    "Who is the director? Is he famous?"

    "not sure¡­¡­"

    "What type of role are you playing? There are many types of supporting roles, some are just soy sauce, and some supporting roles may be more brilliant than the protagonist!"

    "have no idea¡­¡­"

    "How much is the salary? When will filming start?"

    "Anji didn't say"

    "Is she really your biological sister?"

    "Then we have to ask our parents"

    George was speechless. Fortunately, you are still an older brother. Your sister is starring in a movie, but you don¡¯t know anything about it

    "But it doesn't matter!" James shrugged, "Being favored by two different directors shows that Angie does have the potential to become an actor. As a brother, I will definitely support her behind the scenes."

    "The idea is very good." George patted James on the shoulder, "But the choice of role is also very important. The early impression an actor leaves on the audience will often determine how her future career will be. I hope  Angie can carefully consider every choice she makes, and don't just accept the script casually just to be on camera. Otherwise, the character creation will fail, which will be extremely detrimental to her future development."

    "Yeahwhy didn't I think of" James suddenly realized that the happy expression just now disappeared immediately, replaced by worry.

    "A good news and a bad news. Do you want to hear it?" George felt a little funny when he saw that James was as funny as changing his face.

    James¡¯s thoughts at the moment were all about his sister. After hearing George¡¯s teasing, he just nodded absently.

    "The good news is that we are going to New York soon to start filming the new movie. Then you will have time to see your sister. She seems to have been studying alone in New York except for Christmas, right? While you are here  During this time, you two can have a good reunion."

    "Is it really possible?" James' eyes lit up. George had the habit of giving the crew a holiday after filming. Maybe he could stay in New York for a while longer.

    "The bad news is that you may become the second official director of York Film Company" George smiled and told James a piece of news that surprised James.

    "Me? Official director?" James seemed to be unable to believe his ears and opened his mouth wide.

    "Not bad!" George had already planned to let James take the lead.  "We will re-offer you a new contract. I will provide you with a good script, and then you will direct and complete the work yourself. Of course it will not be a big production, so you have to be mentally prepared.  .¡±

    "This is definitely not bad news!" James suddenly reacted and shouted happily, "I will definitely not let you down."

    "Why isn't it bad news?" George spread his hands, "You're even more of a rookie than I was when I debuted. I gave you this difficult task. Others will definitely question you. Everyone knows that you are more  Like the director of the logistics department. No one will be optimistic about your directing ability in advance."

    "I will definitely prove myself!" James patted his chest and said proudly.  "I want to defeat their ideas with facts. Let them know that Mr. George, your vision has never been missed."?

    George nodded with satisfaction, "Of course you are free to choose a script. After all, it is your own debut, so you still have to choose what you like the most and what you are best at."

    This After hearing George's words, James immediately fell into deep thought. After a long time, he hesitated and said: "Sir Actually, I have always wanted to make a comedy-type love movie"

    "Are you kidding?" George looked James up and down and said in surprise, "You only have less than three more humor cells than me, but you actually choose to make a romantic comedy? Are my ears broken  ¡­¡±

    James blushed and stammered for a long time before holding back a sentence: "Anyway Anyway, I just want to make romantic comedies I have checked the company's information, and it seems that from its establishment to the present, it has been making comedy films.  There was nothing going on in the marketI wanted to challenge myself"

    This challenge is impossible to overcome George thought helplessly and shook his head: "I have to think about this carefully. If you can follow my footsteps and choose to debut in a horror film for your first work, then  I can still help you a lot, but you actually want to make a romantic comedy I can't do anything about this. Those things and literary films are the two forbidden areas in my life. I really can't help you"

    "It doesn't matter, Mr. George" James plucked up the courage and said, "Even if you can't provide me with an excellent script, the worst I can do is find one that suits me. If this movie fails, then I will be honest in the future.  I'll be with you as an assistant, and I won't think about those messy things anymore."

    "Okay, whatever you want!" George regretted a little. Why did he add the words of letting James freely choose the script If he unilaterally arranged a script for James, he would definitely not refuse.  Well, this time, it was originally to show his tolerance, but the result is likely to completely destroy James' director life.

    Is this guy a genius?  George shook his head in his heart. At least in future memories, James would be unknown.  Although I am not a genius.  But the magical script will create everything. As long as a horror film with good box office performance is selected and handed over to James in the memory of the future, James' debut film will definitely make a profit.  But if it's a comedy George immediately blacked out. In his memories, there were basically few movies of this type. At most, he could see the name and box office, and the content was nothing but  Apart from the introduction, it is completely blank.

    In this case, George was really worried.  The target he set for James is that the North American box office of the first movie must reach at least US$20 million.  In addition to having great trust in himself, the brother he grew up with, Glenn is very harsh on everyone else. If Glenn is not allowed to see James' potential, James's debut film will probably be the last one in his life.  Works

    If there are only a few million box office, at least at York Film Company, Glenn will never give James the right to direct a second movie.  Although it is a bit realistic, it is understandable.  The movie's box office is only a little bit. After excluding the rest of the expenses, York Film Company may be able to recover less than one million U.S. dollars. Although mosquito legs are still meat no matter how small they are, such directors are always available in the United States.  Look, if James wants to become famous, it will be extremely difficult.

    "Don't worry, sir." James' mood has calmed down. "I will definitely seize this opportunity seriously. When I choose the script, you must review it for me. When I finish the script for you,  movie, I started to officially collect my favorite scripts.¡±

    "There are many good talents in the Screenwriters Guild. You can go there and ask. I believe the price will not be too high." George rubbed his chin and thought for a while, "There are many good original scripts now, but it is a pity that not many of them can be seen by major companies.  . On the other hand, some novels are constantly being adapted into scripts. After all, such adapted scripts have their own fixed followers. At least after they are released, some fans of the novels will also be attracted to the cinema. This will have a huge impact on your early popularity.  Accumulation is very helpful.¡±

    "Adapting the script" James thought thoughtfully, "This is a good idea, but those copyright issues seem to be very troublesome."

    "Don't worry!" George smiled, "Although the novel can only be adapted after seeking the opinions of the original author, but no author doesn't want his work to be put on the big screen, right? This is both fame and fortune.  Things. The first work is very important to you. The box office performance is a hard indicator, and it also needs to show your personal style. There is no shortage of stereotyped good babies in Hollywood. Only when you are different will you be noticed by everyone."

    "Like you?" James heheedlaughed.

    "Stop talking nonsense" George waved his hand, "Tell the guys we are going to start work soon."
