V1.C45
After a few years, Cameron roared at the "bandit" in front of me. There was no such thing as "I can't imagine the world without" in front of me.
Just as he was about to speak, the elevator door opened and outside was the hotel lobby. Adrian grinned and gestured to James and Wendell, "why don't we sit down somewhere and talk slowly?"
Three people came to the lobby of wine, found a place to ask for drinks, and then began to talk. Instead of pulling Adrian to talk about investment as eagerly as in the elevator, James chatted casually about the movie.
From "terminator" to "alien 2" to "the abyss" the year before last, James talked about everything, even the difficulties he encountered in shooting his first film, piranha 2. How many guessed some of his thoughts, Adrian also just held a few words, by the way, made a not long short introduction to himself. I also learned that the reason why I met James and Wendell here was that the production company also held a party at the baccarat hotel.
"It's a pity, ed. I should have gone to the cinema to see" memory fragments ". It must have been a great movie." After listening to Adrian's introduction of his latest work, James sighed. It's not clear whether it's true or polite.
"You don't like it that much, James. You're more interested in technology and effects than editing," Adrian said, smiling and shaking his head. "It's like you're diving for hours to shoot the abyss."
"That's right," James didn't deny. "The reason I delayed making the terminator sequel after seven years was that they didn't do what I wanted. I remember I told you just now that the fight with the robot in the last part of the first episode of terminator was shot frame by frame. It would not be so troublesome if it were changed to now. "
"You know, ED, I've designed a liquid metal terminator, Robert Patrick's T-1000, and Arnold Schwarzenegger's T-800 is going to have a wonderful action against him for protecting the young future leader, as long as you go to my studio and look at the finished footage It's worth your $10 million investment. "
"I totally believe it, James," Adrian nodded. "I can put the money into your account whenever you like and the producer is OK."
"If I venture, Mr. Adrian, may I know why you have to invest?" Wendell, who had not spoken for a long time, interposed. "As you said before, the company you took over was just getting better. There was no need to join in."
Wendell's subtext is obvious. If the risk is high, don't mention it. 10 million is too little compared with 100 million. Even if the film finally makes money, Adrian can't get much. James was busy winking at his companion, but Wendell didn't seem to see it. He looked at the young man in front of him without blinking.
"In my opinion, just the name of James Cameron is worth investment." Adrian said in his spare time.
James and Wendell couldn't help but be stunned. A few minutes later, James laughed triumphantly and held out his hand to Adrian: "that's settled, ed!"
"But there's one thing I want to make clear," Adrian, who shook hands with James, suddenly added, with an unusual solemnity in his voice. "Only 10 million, no more."
James couldn't help being stunned. He didn't know what Adrian was talking about seriously. He didn't know what Adrian was talking about until Wendell next to him laughed. Then he rolled his eyes and laughed bitterly.
Can't this investment really make much money? How can it be? This is the second film of Terminator! Even if the box office stays the same, Adrian has nearly double the profit, which is good enough. Of course, his goal is not in this movie. Since God asked him to meet James Cameron here, and he happened to meet the other party's financial distress for Terminator 2, it's hard to say that he doesn't make emotional investment.
Now James Cameron has only been a first-line director for a few years, and it is the current film Terminator 2 that keeps him firmly in place, so there is no better time than now. Just think about how many technologies and records have been born in the hands of this technophile. It is absolutely necessary to engage now, but
Sure enough, as I remember, Terminator 2 has started to burn money recklessly. You can imagine this guy's crazy appearance when he made the biggest investment movie in history a few years later. On the way back, Adrian was driving and thinking. But it's OK. Now is the right time. James Cameron won't be a problem. Instead, Spielberg, can he persuade the other side without using his trump card?
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－"Don't worry, Holmes. I'm sure the production of Captain Hook will be finished on schedule. You don't have to be in that mood." Spielberg reached out and pressed in the air, as if to reassure Sony's producer sitting on another sofa.
"Well, Steven, we're old friends, and I don't want to hide you. The company wants this movie to be released in the summer season," Holmes sighed. "You know, Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Wendy, fairies, kids' favorites."
"Summer break? Unfortunately, Holmes, it's not possible, "Spielberg shrugged, picked up his coffee in front of him and took a sip." I have a lot of things to do, and I won't allow the late work of the film to be perfunctory. "
"How can it be perfunctory, Steven, just a little bit faster." Holmes spread out his hand.
"We've been working together for a long time, Holmes. You know what I'm doing." Spielberg didn't let up. "Actually, Christmas stalls are a good choice, aren't they?"
Holmes looked at him for a long time: "is it because of that? We refused to invest? "
"How can you say that, Holmes!" Spielberg frowned.
"That's it. Come on, Steven. I know you've always wanted to make this movie, but no one will like it. Instead of spending money on it, it's better to donate it. " Holmes shook his head obstinately.
"You're insulting me, Holmes!" Spielberg's tone became fierce. "For years, I haven't thought about giving it to someone else, but no one wants to take it. In that case, I'll make the film myself! It's no big deal that they turned me down, but I'm so disappointed that you say that now
They looked at each other for a long time, and Holmes finally sighed and softened. "OK, I apologize, Steven. I'm sorry I offended you."
Spielberg sighed, too, knowing that there was no malice: "that's it, Holmes."
"That's it, Christmas stand. I'll tell them." Holmes nodded, got up and left the office.
After watching the other party go out, Spielberg sat quietly on the sofa for a few minutes without knowing what he was thinking about. Then he got up with a long breath and went to the back of his desk to read the papers.
Then the telephone on the desk rang: "Mr. Steven, there is a Mr. Adrian Cowell looking for you. He said he had an appointment with you."
Spielberg was stunned. After looking at the time, he responded: "yes, yes, please come in."
Adrian Cowell. He repeated the name several times in his mind, and the scene of that night came to his mind. He didn't want to go to the party, but Elaine called in person, and it was hard to refuse.
The young man gave him a good impression at first. He was modest and polite, and had his own opinions on people and things. Moreover, he had seen the film which had been praised by film critics before. The editing was very exquisite. He told a simple story so brilliantly. This young man was excellent and had potential. He was utilitarian and said so much to himself. All he said was the last sentence.
At the thought of this, Spielberg couldn't help shaking his head. He didn't think utilitarian was a bad thing. After making movies for so many years, he knew how realistic Hollywood was. He just felt that the young man was a little impatient. If the other side would stabilize a little bit and find another opportunity to talk about this matter next time, he would definitely think about it carefully. Now
"Hello, ed. I'm glad we've met again so soon." As the young face appeared at the door, Spielberg stood up and held out his hand.
"Thank you for your time, Steven." Adrian with a modest smile, it is easy to make people feel good.
They sat down on both sides of their desks, exchanged greetings and then turned to the main topic.
"I remember the last time you left the party, you said you wanted to make a movie out of a science fiction novel, didn't you?" Spielberg was the first to ask.
"Yes." Adrian nodded, then put the book in his hand on his desk and pushed it in front of him. "A science fiction about dinosaurs, very interesting."
"About dinosaurs?" Spielberg raised his eyebrows unconsciously. When he picked up the book on the table and looked at it, he was shocked in his heart.
"Mr. Michael Clayton's Jurassic Park," Adrian's voice rang again. "I had contact with him when it was first published last year, and finally got the film adaptation right after several twists and turns. Michael and I spoke on the phone several times, and we agreed that it was the best choice for you to direct and produce this film. "
