Chapter 83: future transactions

"Maybe we can relax now." Charlize Theron bit her lip and looked at Ryan.

Ryan looked at the delicate face, slender figure, and smooth skin close at hand, and finally shook his head, "One last time, I can't agree to your request."

Charlize-Theron was taken aback for a moment, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, the person in front of her was indifferent to her, could it be a homosexual?

No, it seems that he has an unusual relationship with Monica Bellucci, who starred in two "Saw" movies in succession.

Ryan's eyes once again fell on Charlize Theron, hesitated a little, and said: "I have a cooperation with Touchstone in May, and there may be a role that suits you."

"I can leave you my phone number, and I will send you an invitation to audition."

After all, he is not a saint, let alone a gentleman. Facing the temptation of the young Charlize Theron, he still couldn't resist, and finally made a deal.

It's not "The Evil Invasion", but a film "The Truman Show" co-operated with Touchstone in May.

Charlize-Theron's expression is a bit hard to change, the cooperation with Touchstone in May?

She had naturally heard of Touchstone, one of Disney's film distribution companies and a leader among Hollywood's second-tier film distribution companies.

"May I ask the name of the movie?" The attitude changed a bit quickly, making Charlize Theron a little unbelievable.

In fact, Ryan's change was too sudden, which made her unprepared.

""The Truman Show", the initial investment budget is as high as 35 million US dollars, and you can audition for the wife of the leading actor in the film." Ryan said very frankly.

The wife in "The Evil Spirit" is the mother of a teenage girl, and the female teacher also needs a certain age limit, which is obviously not suitable for the Charlize-Theron in front of her.

The wife of the heroine of "The Truman Show" is set to be very young. At Charlize-Theron's age, as long as she looks a little more mature in makeup, she should have no problem playing the role.

The actress who played this role in her previous life was only in her early twenties, not a few years older than Charlize Theron.

"Truman"!

$35 million investment budget!

Charlize Theron didn't know what to say, and became incoherent, "Thank you, Mr. Ryan."

"I'm, I mean, I'll be on call tonight."

Ryan's tone was very flat, and he said, "It's just an invitation for an audition, Miss Charlie, you don't have to do this, other things, wait until you pass the first round of auditions."

The premise of his agreement to the deal was that Charlize Theron must pass the first round of auditions, otherwise Ryan would refuse without hesitation even though she was very attractive.

No one can joke about a $35 million movie.

"I see." Charlize Theron sat down again, as if she had understood what he meant.

Obviously, the man in front of him seemed to have his own rules.

Even if it is a deal, it needs to pass the first round of auditions.

Next, Charlize Theron didn't stay long, left her private phone number, and at the same time put Ryan's phone number away, then got up to leave.

Seeing Charlize Theron get up and leave, and close the office door, Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that I need to go to England."

It's funny to say that "Leaving Las Vegas" is a film about the United States, but it has to be shot in the United Kingdom.

In fact, the reason is very simple. British local films have a tax rebate policy, which can save a lot of money.

Of course, some scenes in the film need to be filmed in Las Vegas.

As for the deal with Charlize Theron!

Ryan had a rule in his previous life, never underestimate the revenge psychology of an actress, so when dealing with her, she must let the other party get what she wants in return, not a deception.

This saves a lot of trouble.

Although some things are very common in the Hollywood circle, actors who have suffered a loss dare not say anything more, but some young actors have to continue to come when they are called.

For example, Harvey Weinstein is a typical character among them. Don’t get nothing in return, he has done it more than once.

But there are some things that don't mean others can do it, so can you.

One thing Ryan knew was that he didn't have the qualifications, and that some people were already watching him, waiting for his chance to make a mistake.

For example, Michael Ovitz, who was warned by 20th Century Fox, only restrained himself for a few days, and then began to show his ugly face in public, and publicly suppressed him almost unobtrusively.

It won't be long before Michael Ovitz becomes CEO of Disney, and even 20th Century Fox's warnings will be useless.

The only thing that reassures him is that Michael Ovitz has been in charge of Disney for a short time, and there are many people in Disney who oppose his ideas, such as the head of Touchstone.

There is also the ever-expanding CAA, don't underestimate the power of CAA, "Interview with the Vampire", which was released in November last year, starring Tom Cruise, the entire film is one of CAA's packaging plans.

The North American box office achieved US$105 million, and the global box office reached US$223 million, almost sweeping away the negative impact of being rejected by Steven Spielberg.

When Universal Pictures started preparing for the filming of "Jurassic Park", it had already agreed to cooperate with CAA as a packaged project.

No, the director of the film, Steven Spielberg, strongly refused, and even persuaded Universal Pictures to cancel the cooperation with CAA.

Let caa miss "Jurassic Park", such a film that can be recorded in Hollywood history.

Given Steven Spielberg's influence in Hollywood and the Jewish circle, even CAA dare not play tricks.

However, with the success of the package service of "Interview with the Vampire", Michael Ovitz is about to take over the power of Disney, and CAA will definitely show its sharp minions.

Maybe he is caa's next prey.

He doesn't have the connections and influence of Steven Spielberg, so it's better to be cautious.

Back at the apartment, Charlize Theron, still feeling a little unreal, got an invitation to an audition with ease.

Even if only by passing the first audition, she can get the real deal and even get a role in the film.

But for her, it is still very rare.

Charlize Theron had just returned to the apartment when a male manager greeted her and asked, "How is it?"

"Ryan Gosling, did he say yes?"

The relationship between the agent and Charlize Theron is very close, and it is even said that their encounter was full of drama.

Once, Charlize Theron was in desperate need of money to pay rent, but all she had was a check from her mother. The bank clerk told her that checks cannot be cashed by those who do not have an account with the bank.

When she was arguing with the bank staff, a man standing behind her came up and helped her negotiate with the bank.

Before leaving, the man gave Charlize-Theron a business card and later became her manager.

A legendary encounter scene.

"The situation is a bit complicated."

Charlize Theron sat down and told what had happened without reservation.

"Although I didn't get an audition invitation for "The Evil Spirit" this time, I have gained something else."

"He asked me to audition for the crew of "The Truman Show" in May. As long as I pass the first round of auditions, I will have the opportunity to play the role of the leading actor's wife in the film."

"Truman"!

The agent showed a little thought, and said, "Is it a cooperation with Touchstone Films?"

"It seems that the topic of "The Truman Show" ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ has been raging a while ago. Unexpectedly, in the end, I did not choose to cooperate with 20th Century Fox, but chose Touchstone Films under Disney."

Charlize-Theron showed a hint of surprise, she didn't expect her agent to know about "The Truman Show", and it seemed that she was going to cooperate with 20th Century Fox in the first place.

"A great script?" She obviously didn't know what was in it, only that the investment of the film was as high as 35 million US dollars.

"Yes, it is a very good script."

The agent said very seriously: "Many film companies hope to buy this script, including 20th Century Fox, but Ryan Gosling seems not to agree, but chooses to cooperate with Touchstone and direct the film himself. "

"And, as you said, the cost of the film will be as high as $35 million."

"Remember my words, seize this opportunity." The agent said meaningfully: "Ryan Gosling is obviously a person with principles. Trading with this kind of person is also a rare opportunity for you. Opportunity."

He has seen many people of all kinds, and it is not uncommon for Ryan to be like this.

Charlize Theron nodded vigorously and said, "What should I do next?"

"Ask him out for dinner in a few days!"

"No, you don't have to do anything." The manager flatly rejected her proposal and said, "I will find a way to help you get the script of "The Truman Show". Next, your focus is to figure out the characters in the script , rather than doing other things.”

He could see clearly that if Charlize Theron couldn't pass the first audition, then Ryan Gosling would never commit to anything.

This is a very principled man.
