Chapter 141: 141

"You look familiar. I guess it's because you're dressed that I didn't recognize you." haha, Simon, how did you think of the monologue in "celebration"? If I don't know your age, I would definitely think that the person who wrote this sentence is an experienced playboy. "

In a restaurant in Santa Monica.

Madonna across the table leans slightly toward Simon, barrackingly discussing the song Simon wrote her last time.

"Vulgar novel" has entered the final stage of sound editing. Simon is not satisfied with the recording effect of a few lines in Sean pan and Madonna's play. He calls to see if they can find time to dub again. During this time, the couple who just returned to the West Coast readily agree.

When he finished dubbing in the morning, Simon naturally had a good lunch.

If Sean pan wasn't there, Simon didn't mind turning around and joking. At this time, he just laughed and said, "well, what's the sales volume of you can dance?"

When Madonna heard this question, she was immediately excited: "2.16 million in North America, 3.35 million overseas, a total of 5.51 million. I thought it would be good to sell a total of 5 million. Now, the number can at least double. So, Simon, when are you going to give me the next song? "

Simon said, "I'm sure I'll wait for your next album. It's impossible to write one at random, isn't it?"

"It doesn't matter if you write any of them. As long as they are good enough, I can make an album based on your songs," Madonna said, as she tasted the sweetness. "In addition, Simon, do you have any small role suitable for me? I don't need money this time, just sing one song at a time."

Simon said: "in the beginning of a campus thriller, a girl received a call from a perverted murderer and was killed soon. Her body was not only hung on a tree, but also ripped open. Do you play it or not? "

Madonna immediately shook her head: "no, it's easy to be imitated by extreme fans. I don't want to be like John Lennon."

Simon shrugged: "then there's nothing else."

Madonna hesitated and said, "is there such a role?"

"Yes, but I'm a little worried about what you just said, so I won't give it to you," Simon said, shaking his head, turning to Sean pan, looking for a topic skillfully and saying, "Sean, how's the color rattlesnake you worked with Robert Duval?"

"The schedule has been determined. On April 15, I think the film will have an excellent effect. However, Orion's confidence in the film is not too high," Sean Pan said regretfully, adding, "Simon, I heard you signed the rain man that owitz has been promoting personally?"

Simon thought of the reaction of the newspaper media and some people around him in recent days and said with a smile, "yes, I'm already recognized as a fat sheep now. You don't want to laugh at me, do you?"

Sean pan felt hesitant when he heard the speech.

Madonna said frankly, "Sean also wants to be a director. Simon, you are so rich now. Help us invest some."

Simon nodded with a smile and said, "let me see the script first. If I can, my fat sheep will not be eaten clean by then, then it will be OK."

Madonna envied: "1.6 billion dollars, I think it's enough for my whole life."

Simon winked at Sean Pan: "Sean, it seems that you have to work hard to make money. This woman plans to spend 1.6 billion in her life."

Sean Penn shrugged manly: "a fight won't give you that much thought."

Madonna beat Sean pan on the shoulder discontentedly and said, "maybe I can make so much money myself."

After lunch, Simon saw the couple off. As soon as he got into his car, Neil Bennett in the front row said, "Mr. westrow, Ms. Pascal has just called. Mr. George COGO, chairman of the writers union, wants to talk to you. He's already on the company's side."

Simon looked at his watch. He had planned to go to wma headquarters in the afternoon. Since Amy called in person, it was obvious that he couldn't get away with it, so he said, "let's go back to the company first."

Neil Bennett starts the car. Simon picks up the car phone and says hello to Jonathan Friedman. After a few words, the SUV has stopped outside Denise pictures headquarters.

Seeing Simon's car, Amy came out.

Simon had guessed the intention of WGA chairman George COGO on his way back, and Amy's explanation confirmed Simon's guess.

WGA is divided into two branches on the east coast and the west coast. To be exact, George COGO should be the chairman of WGA's West Branch. Simon met each other in his office. This is an old man in his early sixties, with a round face and silver hair. He looks very hale and hearty.

After a brief chat, George COGO explained his intention: "Simon, you must know that we are negotiating with the Producers Union. As the best young screenwriter in Hollywood, we really hope you can join WGA and make your own voice for the screenwriters. "Simon looked embarrassed and said, "Mr. COGO, I have my own production company now. If I join the writers' Union, once WGA goes on strike, I can't abide by the strike regulations at all."

George COGO shook his head and said with a smile: "Simon, the negotiation is still going on, and it's not necessarily going to go to the level of strike. And there will always be exceptions. Even if the strike does happen, you just need to stay out of script writing for a period of time and stop signing new contracts with big film companies. "

Simon, listening to George COGO, realized that the other party was obviously an optimist, and did not realize how serious the next strike would be.

After a five month strike, Denise pictures is unable to hire a professional screenwriter for a series of ongoing projects. If Simon binds himself to WGA rules, the company will close down.

With a firm shake of his head, Simon said regretfully, "George, I'm really sorry. It's really not convenient for me to join WGA now."

George COGO didn't give up easily. He continued to lobby for more than ten minutes. Seeing Simon's insistence, he had to get up and leave.

After politely sending George COGO out of the company headquarters and watching the other party's car drive out of the parking lot, Amy said to Simon, "the nominations for the American Writers Union award will be announced next week."

Simon didn't rush to wma, went back to the office building with Amy and said, "do you want me to join WGA?"

Amy nodded and said, "the vote for the Oscars is also in the hands of WGA members. The screenwriting award is your most promising project this year. If you refuse George COGO, "Lola Run" will be hopeless

Simon said with a wry smile, "WGA is short of me. Should it be nothing?"

Amy said with a smile: "last year's" Lola Run "," Butterfly Effect "and" death is coming "all made it into the top ten of the annual box office. If these screenwriters are not WGA members, they will not be able to strike."

Simon was helpless. He actually understood what George COGO and Amy thought.

Both of them obviously don't think the strike this year will be serious, and they don't even think WGA will go to the level of strike.

If Simon, a top Hollywood playwright, joins the WGA at this time and expresses his support for the negotiations between the WGA and the producer alliance, it will be a very good thing for both sides.

Simon's statement is an important part of voting in this award season, which will definitely win the favor of many writers who have the right to vote.

On the contrary.

If WGA goes on strike, Simon, the top screenwriter who created three films that made it into the annual box office list last year, is separated from the strike group. He can not only create freely, but also continue to sign contracts with the studio. Then the scene will be a little too embarrassing, and even embarrass the whole WGA.

After last year's "Lola Run", Simon has become famous in Hollywood, and he has reached the standard of joining the WGA. However, the WGA has never taken the initiative to say that it is no accident that he has only sent an invitation until now.

Everyone can easily understand the subtext.

Like Amy just said.

Nominations for the American Writers Union awards will be announced next week.

Obviously.

If Simon agrees to join the WGA at this time, he will be a "big hit" in next week's nominations and even the next awards.

But it's not.

Simon, who is well aware of the developments in the next few months, simply can not agree to the WGA's invitation.
