In the chaos, no one noticed that there was a ghostly figure among the trees on the other side of the mountain forest, and he pressed the camera in his hand repeatedly
"Peter!" Fran Welsh went to pull her husband, and Jackson rushed forward like a boar. When he was pulled, he kicked his feet forward, shouting: "I love Susie like my child!"
Gia went to pull Ye Wei, but failed to hold him back. Ye Wei rushed in front of Jackson, but Jackson did not hit him. At this time, Gold grabbed Ye Wei, and Alice shouted "Gentlemen!" Ye Wei and Jackson They all stopped with angry expressions and were pulled back a few steps.
"Gentlemen, please calm down." Alice looked very serious, "I do not allow violence here."
"Sorry, I got excited." Ye Wei apologized solemnly. Jackson wiped his face, "Sorry, I lost control."
Because she was wary of the Jacksons, Gia felt something was wrong. Peter Jackson, a fat man, was so cunning. He could have been so angry 20 years ago, but would he still be able to do it now that he is used to seeing trouble at his age? She was shocked, the fat man did it on purpose!
Wei showed his true feelings just now, and what he said was reasonable and reasonable. If Jackson could refute it, he would have refuted it long ago. But he obviously had nothing else to say except "trust me, I can handle it." He became more and more at a disadvantage, and was even criticized by Ye Wei. Tag "Love the novelty of heaven more than Susie".
If this label is firmly attached to Alice¡¯s heart, what choice will she make?
"The damn fat guy is about to be kicked off the ring, so why not just do this? How can he show that he is also very affectionate?" Love Susie very much? Losing control seems good¡
"Weige, some of what you said makes sense." At this time, Jackson looked like he was trying his best to calm down, flashing the light of mature wisdom, "But your worries are all about the worst results. You know that when making movies, You can¡¯t stop trying just because something might go wrong, we directors are the ones who find ways to solve problems.¡±
He sat down at the round table again and said: "Everyone used to say that "Lord of the Rings" could not be made into a movie. Two years ago, no one thought you could achieve what you have today. We have all done it. We all need to get it. Have the courage to face this story of tlb.
Gorgeous special effects are not necessarily bad. I agree with Alice¡¯s words: ¡®Heaven must be happy. ¡¯ I don¡¯t know what God wants, but in heaven, Susie will be able to enjoy the misery. This is her strong optimism, just like Alice's humor. Susie is not the kind of girl who cries and is angry. She is like sunshine, which can dispel the darkness.
" Heaven is so important not only for its expressiveness, but also for its emotional comparison with the human world. If heaven were the same as the human world, then Susie would become a resentful ghost. No, Susie lives in heaven. She no longer grows up on the outside, but she continues to grow on the inside, from self-imprisonment to freedom.
There is no heaven there, not at first, but gradually in the end, Susie understands, and she will reach the real heaven. "
Oh no! Gia couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, this is Peter Jackson! It wasn't that he couldn't refute, he first led Rang Wei to speak happily, and then all at once counterattacked. Now it seems that viy is very childish and emotional. The problems he mentioned are due to lack of courage. His doubts about heaven are because he does not understand Susie
Look at Alice's thoughtful face. It's definitely giving Jackson points. He still has a high budget and a bigger background. The success of the "Lord of the Rings" series has already made people superstitious about Jackson. He is more popular than a genius boy. Be practical
It was suddenly reversed.
Ye Wei remained silent and said suddenly to Giya: "Give me those papers."
What paper? Everyone was confused after hearing this, but Gia was in high spirits. Now? What is he going to do? Immediately, he quickly took out the pile of paper from the assistant's briefcase on the round table and gave it to him.
"I think there is no need for us to continue talking because our philosophies are so different."
Ye Wei did not sit down again, but glanced at the people with different expressions, and said: "I raise another question. With the limited expressive power of the movie, after a person dies, he reaches a place where he can do whatever he wants, meet friends, and watch the world. Place, paradise. We still need to focus on rendering it. How to avoid a wrong perception that death is better?
Should we all end it as soon as possible? Want to find a way to tell your family that they will die and be reunited in heaven? Does Susie still want to thank Mr. Harvey? "
The atmosphere in the garden suddenly felt awkward, which at first glance even the original novel seemed to attack.
Ye Wei looked at Alice, "In the novel, there are so many delicate and sensitive writings that refute this perception. Movie? Peter, what are you going to do? Let Susie narrate for one second? Even if her speaking speed Even the fastest person in the world can¡¯t finish his thoughts.
TV series can?In order to make it into a movie, the problem of heaven cannot be solved, there are only problems or no problems, unless you make it into a trilogy.
I reiterate my point again, heaven is not an amusement park! "
"There is no problem that cannot be solved. What you said is too absolute." Jackson said in disapproval.
Ye Wei ignored him and raised the stack of paper in his hand, "These are what I imitated Susie's handwriting and what I imagined her handwriting to be. I only did two things last Saturday. See Chapter 2 One chapter, write these.¡±
Next to her, Gia kept her face expressionless as she watched him hand 150 pages of lined paper filled with words into Alice's hands.
"" When Alice saw it, her face was full of shock, and her hands trembled as she flipped through the pages. Her eyes suddenly filled with tears
The Jacksons looked around in surprise, and Gold went over to take a look and was also shocked.
"As much as Susie is in pain, heaven is as dark as it is. Of course she is a strong and optimistic sunny girl, but that does not mean that she is not in pain."
Saying in a deep voice, Ye Wei took back the stack of paper from Alice, "These should not exist in the world!" He tore up page after page, "I hate Mr. Harvey so much, and I love Su so much. Qian, maybe some of my thoughts have gone irrational and I am possessed. When I think of what happened to Susie, I, I justI'm sorry"
He burst into manly tears again and continued to tear the paper into pieces.
"Yes, my budget is not high, but Alice, if you hand Susie over to me, I promise you that I will use my best ability to tell her story to the world and let the world know it. As we all know, she is such a smart, strong, beautiful girl with a tragic fate, but she still maintains her beauty and is getting better and better.¡±
He looked at the Jacksons who still didn't know what was going on, "And Peter and Fran, I beg you! If you get the adaptation rights, really think about it and don't turn heaven into an amusement park. Really, I don't I can discuss it with you at any time. Although I don¡¯t think those problems can be solved, I will try my best to provide my help.¡±
"So, thank you for this interview today, and I hope I wasn't too rude. Alice, Glenn, thank you for your hospitality."
After tearing up the paper, Ye Wei nodded to them and said with a forced smile: "I'm waiting for your news or the next interview, anytime. Giya, let's go."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the front garden of the villa.
The round table was covered with pieces of shredded paper, which seemed to be Susie¡¯s broken body and soul. When a gust of autumn wind blew by, it fell all over the floor, and the fragrance of rose flowers lingered around.
Gia took the briefcase and followed closely. As soon as she turned her back to Alice and others, she widened her eyes and shouted silently, "How cool!"
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ªMore quickly, now even if the fat guy rushes up to pull them back, she won't pay attention and won't give the other side a chance to come back! This is like winning 100 million in a casino, then not gambling anymore, leaving immediately, and making the casino angry to death! Hahaha!
The two of them quickened their pace without looking back, and soon they left Gold's house in a second-hand Volkswagen and drove towards the tree-lined highway.
"Did you see Alice Sebold's reaction? She cried! Gia shouted excitedly, "How did you do it, damn genius, Jackson is really finished!" "
After driving for a while, the car slowed down and stopped at the side of the road. Ye Wei leaned on his seat and exhaled as if exhausted, "Almost! We were the ones who almost died! We can't say we are sure to win, but we have a better chance. I wish you good luck. Come on!"
"He was angry on purpose, right?"
"Of course it was intentional. Would old pervert Peter Jackson care about others saying he should be ashamed? Then he would not make any more movies after filming "Space Oddity"."
"Yes, yes." Gia was as excited as if she had watched David Copperfield's magic with her own eyes, "The two directors' improvisation, haha!"
Ye Wei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at her with a smile, "Master Jia, you have really made a great contribution this time!"
"It's none of my business, your acting skills are better than Marlon Brando." Gia gave a thumbs up.
"It's not an act. Except for those papers that I didn't write, everything else is true." Ye Wei shrugged and continued to drive the car.
"Really? What about the cheesesteak sandwich? Is that true too?"
"Well, you know what Google is, right?"
"You little rascal!"
Gia laughed and scolded and took out her phone to look at it. It was only less than 2:30 in the afternoon. "There is still another afternoon, where are we going?" Ye Wei, who was driving the car, glanced at her, "Let's go back to school Why do you use such weird words?" Are you looking at me like that?" Gia narrowed her eyes and said, "Go back"?School is about to be over, why not go to a movie? Usually we haven't gone to the movies together. "
She pressed her phone to write a text message, "Let me ask Nina."
"Nina won't be jealous of you." Ye Wei said in a funny voice.
"What do you mean?" Gia was stunned, "I also have a market, okay?"
"I know, I mean she trusts me. "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"? I haven't watched it yet. I was planning to watch it with Nina, maybe twice."
Gia was even more stunned, "Harry Potter? Twice?"
"What? I'm curious about who was murdered, and I also want to see how Zhang Qiu is doing." Ye Wei said.
Gia was really speechless: "I thought you would watch "The Squid and the Whale" or something like that. Nina replied, she said 'have-fun! lol'" Ye Wei said with a smile: "We are considered a date after all," "The Squid and the Whale"? Why not "The Road"?
""The Road" is good." Gia muttered.
"There is no place to show "The Road" in Los Angeles. I looked for it before. We had to watch it at home, and Nina cried in the end haha."
"I knew "The Road" was a classic movie about picking up girls, but it made me cry, me!"
Ye Wei smiled when he heard this, then suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, assistant, I'm actually still busy with a few projects now."
"What's going on?!" Gia was shocked and almost stretched out her foot to step on the brakes, "How many projects?"
"There were nearly ten at the beginning. The chance of winning TLB is not great. Of course I have to make other preparations." Through the windshield, Ye Wei looked at the road ahead and put his hands on the steering wheel. "The main thing now is, "Soul" "Surfer," the biographical drama about Bethany Hamilton."
He started talking immediately.
Since watching the documentary "viy", the Bethany family's ideas have changed a lot, and "Soul Surfer" (ss) has also made great progress. The more willing they were to be honest, the more material he got and the greater his interest and passion for the project.
Ye Wei has already told them about joining the competition for TLB. Competing for TLB does not mean giving up SS.
It is normal for a movie project to take several years to prepare. Even if he wins tlb, it will not affect his takeover of ss. Just like when Peter Jackson initially took over TLB two years ago, he was still pre-production on "King Kong". Of course, Bethenny's team could also find someone else to take over, but Bethenny really wanted him to film it, and he wanted it to come true.
"If you win tlb, which one should you do first?" Gia asked.
"I don't know" Ye Wei frowned and did not say that there was a decisive factor in his next project, and the starring role must be Emma.
"If she wins tlb, it is possible that Alice will not play Susie through Emma, ??because Emma's temperament is not very suitable. He has to think it through. Regarding SS, Roberts still said "no" and he has not argued yet.
"You know to a certain extent, SS and TLB are similar, Shark and Mr. Harvey, losing his left hand and death, two strong girls, two families to cheer up. From light to dark to light, but the emotion is completely It's different, ss is an inspiring story." Ye Wei turned the steering wheel and drove onto the busy road.
Gia thought and nodded, "It's not that difficult for you to inspire people."
"The adaptation of ss is indeed easier than tlb. But I don't have a script yet, and another project already has a first draft of the script."
"Tell me about it?" Gia felt breathless, so envious.
""Winter's Bone" is also an adaptation of a novel. I have already won the rights to adapt it. It costs $1."
The $1 adaptation right means that the author can break the contract and take it back at any time. The producer will only pay the agreed copyright fee when he really wants to put the film into production.
Ye Wei talked about "Winter's Bone" (w'sb) again, "To be honest, I love this story as much as tlb."
W'sb went much more smoothly. He and author Daniel Woodrell had a good rapport. With some insights, a lms preview DVD, and Ang Lee's relationship, Woodrell simply handed over the adaptation rights. Try an adaptation for him. Of course, the film adaptation rights were sold before the novel was published, and he was no longer anonymous, which was a big help to W¡¯sb¡¯s publishing sales.
Because w'sb is short and the writing method is to tell the story one by one, it is not difficult to adapt. He has accumulated a lot of ideas before. After getting the adaptation rights in October, he immediately started working on it with great interest and completed a A first draft version that I feel is pretty good.
¡°W¡¯sb is the best place to shoot, there are no special effects, and the scenes are all in a remote mountainous town.¡± Ye Wei said quite excitedly, ¡°Rui¡¯s candidate is definitely hard to find.¡±
"Nina can't do it?" Gia is still texting with Nina.
"No." Ye Wei shook his head slightly, "She is suitable to play Rui's best friend, a girl named Gale. Did you know that Rui barely smiled once in the whole book? She has to be somewhat boyish and stubborn, but And beautiful None of the young actors I know fit that bill when she was young.¡±
"She is young now." Gia raised her slender eyebrows, "For God's sake, Dunster is only 24 years old, right? You can date her."
"But she can't play a girl anymore. She almost died when she played your aunt in "The Virgin Suicides." And if I don't date her, I'm afraid Peter Parker will hit me. I can't beat this Peter."
"At that time, she was the age we are now. She was very nice and very professional on the set."
"The more I think about it, the more I feelDunst is just average."
¡°The Hillary Swank kind?¡±
"It's not "Boys Don't Cry". She was in it. She was great in "New Longwei Boy", but she is already over 30 years old." Ye Wei shook his head again, "If you really want to find it, a big fight will be necessary. Scale casting auditions.¡±
That will definitely drive you crazy. Gia is sure of this, who doesn't like to act in viy's movies nowadays? Especially for the new generation of actors of the same age, there are a lot of girls who want to get to know him through her relationship. Seeing that he stopped talking, she asked again: "What other projects are there?"
"No, the others have not been officially launched, and they will not happen in the short term. Regardless of whether tlb can win or not, I have to finish ss and w'sb first."
Thinking about it, Ye Wei's face showed excitement and anticipation, "I really want to take pictures of them all within a year!"
"Don't you think you're not a monster enough?" Gia rolled her eyes and just listened. If we win TLB, we can shoot it within a year. This is not a pseudo-documentary exploitation film.
She looked at her phone, "Can Nina play Susie?"
"No, Nina can't do it." Ye Wei's direct rejection had nothing to do with Emma. It was really inappropriate. "She is suitable to play Susie's friend Ruth. You know, she can look weird, like she has something to do with gods and monsters, but she is beautiful. , has an innocent and weak feeling, but can be very fierce and terrifying when it explodes, so we considered taking on "Carrie".
"Is the new version really being made?" Gia was surprised.
"Yes, Lionsgate is also making "The Exorcist 2". They wanted Nina to return. I said no. When I sold the sequel rights, I made it clear that Maggie could not be resurrected. They could let Cotton take on new exorcism cases. Go, or continue the story of Evan Wood, or a completely new character, I don¡¯t care.¡±
Ye Wei turned the steering wheel and said: "I talked with Nina. She really wants to be the Queen of Horror. Then "Carrie" is an excellent opportunity. The high-profile and long-lasting old version will be cast once." , people will talk about Carrie as Nina in the future, which is cool, and with me here, there is no need to worry about her screen image being stereotyped."
Gia nodded, "Then why not?"
"Lionsgate wants me to participate in the creative aspects of the project, but I'm not sure I have enough time and energy. I can't name the director, screenwriter, or executive producer. They still want me to be a planner, check, give opinions, When promoting from now on, just say this is the kind of movie I produced.¡±
¡°This kind of workload won¡¯t be a lot.¡±
"Not much, but I am busy with three projects! I plan to talk to Nina during the holidays before making a decision."
"I really envy you." Gia leaned back in her seat and looked at the road ahead. The street scene outside the window was receding. "lms has only been released for less than two weeks, and you are already busy again. No matter what, don't let him If you leave me alone again, you can do copywriting, chores, errands, any kind of assistant work, just take me with you."
"By the way, what Thanksgiving gift are you going to give me?" Ye Wei turned to look at her, "I want"
"*-Temptation!" Gia interrupted him with an angry voice. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
