Simon hasn't thought about the heroine of true lies.
As long as it's not Jamie Lee Curtis.
Instead of rejecting Ferrar Forsyte's offer, Simon just said that he would arrange an audition for the other side.
Fayla Fossett was a little disappointed, so the acceptance was obviously a bit of a refusal. As soon as he was about to continue to say something, Simon already said, "fayla, let me talk to Joe alone for a while, OK?"
The man's tone was still mild, but flora Forsyte didn't dare to pester any more. She realized that it was not going to happen tonight. She came close and whispered, "you can call me any time." she got up and left.
When ferra Forsyte disappeared, Jonathan Friedman explained with a smile, "it's not your type to know, it's just human relationship."
Simon smiles and nods to show understanding.
The woman just now has a good figure, appearance and even voice, and there is no lineup.
It's just a little bit too black.
This is not in line with Simon's aesthetic tendency.
Moreover, when he thought of some information in his memory, Simon was even less interested in flora Fossett and had some other ideas.
Maybe I should pay more attention in the future.
He never worried too much about getting involved. His wealth and power are enough to offset too many things. He just doesn't want the women around him to be hurt.
After so many years of rebirth, Simon's indifference and alienation from the world has not dissipated, but he is more and more concerned about the people around him.
Jonathan explained one thing and said another thing: "how do you think about the recent MGM project" terror zone ", Simon
It's not just the speed of life and death, MGM has recently identified several other projects.
Horror zone, adapted from the best-selling novel, is also one of them. The film tells the story of the spread of the virus caused by illegal smuggling of animals, which almost killed the residents of a town. It also involves elements such as biological weapons research. The main line is still the old personal heroism, and the hero saves the world.
The original horror zone starred Dustin Hoffman.
Simon saw the film, Dustin Hoffman as the hero has no savior temperament, but with the film in the monkey is very good.
Anyway, the hero of the film should be Harrison Ford.
In fact, the project was originally tailor-made for Harrison Ford.
As a result, it was won by Dustin Hoffman. Obviously, it was a package project that CAA forced to put together, regardless of whether the characters fit or not.
Michael owitz has always lobbied Hollywood studios to let his artists try a variety of styles.
It's OK for artists to pursue breakthroughs. It's wrong for you to mess around.
Simon won't allow the past to happen again this time. When Jonathan asked, he understood each other's meaning and said with a smile, "do you want Bob to have a try?"
Jonathan nodded: "yes, after stealing the wire, Bob happens to have a schedule."
Bob here is Robert De Niro.
In recent years, this male star has been Jonathan's trump card. He has cooperated with danilisi entertainment in vulgar novel, death Poetry Society and spiritual Ford. Simon has also considered two Bob, Robert Redford and Robert De Niro, who have close cooperation with danilisi entertainment.
The release schedule of "terror zone" is probably at the end of next year or the beginning of the next year. It depends on the effect of the film and other factors. There is no problem with the schedule of the two Bob's films, but the role fit is much worse.
Redford can be a gentleman, a cowboy and a villain, and De Niro is ever-changing.
However, both of them lack a main melody temperament that can save the world.
Just now Sandra mentioned Stallone, Simon also flashed some ideas, but soon dismissed them.
Horror zone is a feature film, which needs acting skills.
Stallone, Schwarzenegger these muscle men or carrying machine guns to save the world is better, even if the performance.
Simon also did not hide, frankly said his own ideas.
Jonathan was a little disappointed, but he also understood. He said, "in this case, Ford is really the best choice. What are you going to do now?"
Simon said: "if Ford can play, it will be a blockbuster with a budget of US $50 million. Now Ford has no schedule. I plan to make a medium-sized film with a budget of US $25 million. The actor is Sam Neal."
Sam Neal, as the hero of Jurassic Park last year, although the protagonist of the film is a series of ancient dinosaurs, the actor has also gained worldwide fame, and the film pay is only half of Ford, Redford, De Niro and others. The image of scholar and warm man in Jurassic Park also makes Sam Neal very suitable for the positive and fearless image of doctor in terror zone.Sam Neal is a member of wma.
Although relying on last year's "Jurassic Park" fame, but Jonathan originally felt that each other's development potential is not big.
Hollywood middle-aged male stars have been very saturated, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Harrison Ford, Robert Redford and other first-line celebrities will not give Neil too many opportunities to stand out.
Now, Simon is going to give Neil other projects besides Jurassic Park. Jonathan certainly won't miss them. With Simon's support, other people in Hollywood can't play with them. Although he is not a male star in his own name, Jonathan will not refuse if there is another top man in wma and there won't be much conflict with Robert De Niro in his own name.
"In that case, I'll arrange a meeting between Shirley and Neil tomorrow. What do you think?"
Simon felt the eagerness in Jonathan's voice and nodded with a smile: "good."
"And what about the heroine?"
Although the budget has been cut in half, no one knows the magic of this young man better than Jonathan. The projects he has been interested in over the years have hardly failed.
Sam Neal can make a breakthrough in Jurassic Park, and the heroine is also an opportunity.
In fact, the heroine of the original horror zone happens to be Renee Russell.
Sam Neal and Renee Russell partnered in Jurassic Park last year and signed a long-term contract for two sequels. If they appear in another film at the same time, it will definitely increase the popularity of the film.
Just according to Hollywood convention, the two stars who have just partnered are not suitable for the next cooperation immediately, unless it is a sequel.
In the past, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan's "sleepless in Seattle" was a great success, and it didn't appear in "E-love letter" until a few years later. Richard Kiel's second film "runaway bride" and "pretty girl" with Julia Roberts were almost ten years apart.
Renee Russell is not suitable. Simon has considered another woman with similar temperament, Sheila ward.
Relying on the role of the perfect housewife in desperate housewives, Shira ward has also been popular with the audience in recent years.
It's a pity Sheila ward doesn't have a schedule.
The second season of desperate housewives runs from this fall to next spring. Terror zone wants to catch up with the end of 1994. Meanwhile, it needs to make sure that Sam Neal's Jurassic Park 2 starts shooting at the beginning of next year at the latest. By that time, Sheila ward will be on the crew of desperate housewives.
With this in mind, Simon shook his head and said, "there is no suitable person for the moment. You can recommend it."
Jonathan said with a smile, "ferra just now?"
"It's amazing. The heroine is a doctor. She needs Renee Russell or Sheila ward, and her acting skills should be good enough."
"Then I'll go back and choose by your standards."
After talking for a while, Simon left the party ahead of time.
Girl a and Simon returned to domay point manor together. She was a little strange. She thought her boss would not go home tonight. She might even fly to other cities with a woman selected at the party.
So she also called in advance to arrange a private plane.
After entering the shell villa, Simon takes off his suit and hands it to girl a who subconsciously takes it over. Noticing Alison's small expression, he jokes: "what's wrong with you?"
"No," girl a shook her head and said as if nothing had happened, "does the boss want to take a bath?"
"You go and rest. Don't worry about me."
"Oh."
With a promise, Alison waited for Simon to go upstairs. Then she sorted out her suit and carried it in her arms to the laundry room on the side of the villa.
Late at night, the shell villa seems very empty, because of good sound insulation, the sound of the waves can not be transmitted, so it is also very quiet. Dada dada to step on a series of high-heeled shoes sound, holding the man's clothes, inexplicably very at ease, so secretly hold up smell, and then some embarrassed, feel very abnormal.
After taking a bath, girl a lay in bed and went to bed very late.
Six months into her pregnancy, Janet felt sealed again.
Although not as cautious as the first time, with the long time of pregnancy, out of the mother's instinct, women are cautious again. Recently, they have stopped working and just carry out the pregnancy schedule step by step. It's inevitable that there will be more worries. Especially after finding that she has gained a lot of weight and has more severe pregnancy marks on her stomach than the first time, the woman once again vowed that she would never give birth again.
In contrast, the female assistant is very much looking forward to the little guy in her stomach.
The two children's gender has been determined, Janet is still a boy this time, female assistant belly is a girl.
This also satisfied the female assistant.She thinks Seattle westero is a better name for a girl.
The little guy in Janet's stomach has a name, too.
It was decided by Raymond Johnston himself this time, probably because he has long complained about the name of Melbourne, the eldest son of the westrow family. When the Simon and his wife went to Melbourne last time, the old man undoubtedly said that if it was a boy, his name would be Nicholas, and the girl's name would be Anita, which was the name of Janet's grandparents.
It is a tradition for westerners to use the names of their elders to give their children.
The old man didn't ask his child to be named Raymond or Tracy. Janet's grandparents were gone, and Simon didn't object. Otherwise, it would be strange for him.
As for the pregnancy of the female assistant and Janet's decision to say that she had twins, it's no secret for the johnstons. Simon doesn't intend to hide it, and for her family, it's impossible to hide it at all.
The old man didn't say anything, but he didn't give Simon a good face when he went to Melbourne last time.
Anthony Johnston was also assigned to talk to Simon, referring to the issue of succession rights and hoping that the assistant's child would not be named westero.
Simon is also honest about this. The assets under his name are huge enough now and will be even more amazing in the future. This asset can not be left to any one or several children alone. It is better to exist in the name of family foundation in the future. As for the surname issue, Simon did not give in and said he did not want his children to feel the same experience as he had.
If Simon had been poor, the johnstons would not have been very talkative.
But now Simon has been looked up to by too many people, even the Johnston family, in the eyes of many people, has become a vassal of the Westeros system. Simon's attitude is insistent, and the johnstons never mentioned the girl assistant's children.
Instead, Janet told Simon in private that the family told her to be strict with her man and not let him go.
And Simon?
After the summer celebration party of danielis entertainment, after several negotiations, the project of true lies was finally finalized.
Arnold Schwarzenegger took the initiative to reduce his film payment from $15 million to $12 million.
James Cameron didn't give in too much.
This project was originally invited by Schwarzenegger as a good friend. He is not interested in films of this kind. If the producers insist, Cameron said he does not mind quitting.
The final compromise is to raise the budget to US $80 million. However, once the budget overruns, Cameron's fixed director's remuneration of US $8 million will be halved, but the reduced US $4 million will not need to be paid, but will be converted into profit sharing terms.
If the project is profitable.
The budget of "true lies" in my memory is as high as $115 million, but it is still very profitable.
Schwarzenegger and Cameron have made some concessions, Simon did not insist too much.
MGM and fox soon signed a cooperation agreement, in which fox, who is responsible for distribution, can get 10% commission, which is higher than Simon's original 8%, but also 2.5 percentage points lower than the 12.5% commission of DC movie universe project, which is a step back for both sides.
Simon didn't have a suitable candidate for the final heroine, and flora Forsyte, who wanted to get the role through human feelings, didn't seem suitable to him, so he just left it to the crew to deal with it.
