Chapter 41: Free director

Views:

The street lights on the street kept moving backwards. Although she was wearing a helmet, her hair fluttered from behind Jenny. At this time, Jenny was afraid to look forward, so she could only hug Nathan with her full strength. Feeling the acceleration of his heartbeat at the waist.

"Buzz, buzz." The motorcycle was banging on the accelerator and continuously jumping forward. This kind of street racing is absolutely forbidden, but now, in the midst of tension, Jenny still has a unique feeling in her heart.

"If you want to yell, just yell it." Nathan's voice passed through the roar of the motorcycle to the back.

With the rumbling of the motorcycle and the pulse beating, Jenny suddenly let go of herself. She actually stood up on the back seat of the motorcycle. She stretched out her hands to meet the airflow from the front, she shouted loudly. Said: "I will not admit defeat, I will definitely make this movie!"

There seemed to be echoes from the street. When Jenny slowly sat back on the back seat of the motorcycle, she actually became more comfortable in her heart. Isn't it just that she didn't negotiate a director? What's the big deal.

For the author, the most disliked thing is to revise the manuscript, which means denying the author. Since I called Nathan to come together, Nathan opposed to changing the plot, that is normal, and Nathan's reasons are quite good.

Jenny continued to stick her head on Nathan's back, and she suddenly fell in love with the feeling.

When she first came over, Jenny was planning to drive her own car, but Nathan suddenly rode out a motorcycle. Now, let’s see that motorcycles have an advantage over cars.

In particular, it can also shuttle between the streets and alleys.

Jenny watched the two sides become narrow, and the streets were a little chaotic. On both sides of the shabby attic, washed clothes were flying in the wind.

This is the ghetto of Hollywood.

Hollywood can give birth to a large number of stars, one by one, and the money earned every day is astronomical. At the same time, there are also many poor people here.

Many people who play a trick on the crew, lay hands, and become extras have come to Hollywood with the dream of becoming popular, hoping to get ahead.

Of course, only a small number of people can stand out in the end, like a pyramid, they belong to the little people at the bottom of the tower.

At the same time, there are also some small companies that are intermingled with them, such as film washing, advertising, and so on.

"Crunch." The motorcycle stopped abruptly, so Jenny suddenly pounced on Nathan's back again, and she couldn't help but slap Nathan's back hard: "You bastard!"

The voice was incredibly shy, and at this moment, Nathan had gotten off the motorcycle and said, "Go, let's go in and take a look."

Go in and have a look

where is this place? Jenny looked at this small dilapidated two-story building, which was rented out as a whole, and a crooked sign hung outside, Scott Advertising Production Company.

Why do you come to an advertising production company? Even if your own movie needs to be advertised, it is after the movie is made, right? Where can I advertise now

It’s dark already. The advertising agency hasn’t closed yet. When the two walked in, they saw a mess of things on the first floor. Behind a pile of newspapers, a man was painting on a shelf. Obviously He was painting a poster for an advertisement. He drew it a few times, and found it inappropriate, so he tore it off and crumpled it into a ball of paper.

Then, when he turned his head to throw it in the trash can, he saw the men and women coming in outside.

"Who are you looking for? Is there anything wrong?" the man asked.

"Mr. Tony Scott." Nathan said, "Is it you?"

Nathan is not so sure. After all, this advertising company was formed by Tony Scott and his brother Ridley Stoke. There are no five people in their company.

However, the division of labor between the two is clear. Ridley is mainly responsible for picking up the work, while Tony is responsible for designing, so the man with artist temperament in front of him is almost him.

What is artist temperament? The hair is very long, the beard is not shaved, and the clothes are in tatters. This is the kind of person. He is completely in line with his eyes. The dyes he paints make his body full of colors and looks like it is.

"It's me." Tony said, he is still wondering that few employers come to the door on their own initiative, and the two people in front of them don't seem to be in the circle, they have never met.

"We want to ask you to be a director and direct us a movie." Nathan's words surprised Jenny on the side again. If it weren't in front of others, Jenny would simply oppose it directly. What is it for? If you leave the big director, please, please let this painter who seems to have never been a director come to direct your side

This is definitely a joke!

Nathan wasn't joking, because Nathan remembered clearly that the high ambition that was popular all over the world was directed by Tony Scott.

Tony June 21, 1944-August 19, 2012, was born in North Shields, Northumberland, England. He graduated from the Department of Fine Arts and the Royal College of Art at the University of Sunderland. After five years in the Department of Fine Arts, he entered After three years of film school, he made a 30-minute short film and won an award at the Cannes Film Festival. Before long, he made a one-hour television film, which won an award for the excellent combination of video and music.

It’s just that Tony’s direction as a director was stumbling, and he never had the opportunity to show off his directorial talents. Therefore, in desperation, he and his brother jointly established an advertising production company in 1973 and produced a large number of advertising works. .

One side saved money, and on the other hand, he became familiar with Hollywood. Later, it was not until 1983 that he had the opportunity to shoot his first vampire film Thousand-Year Blood. Later, in 1986, he directed High Aspirations.

Now he is working hard for the advertising career. For him, advertising is just a step. His goal is to be a director. Now, someone has come to ask him to be a director

This sudden news gave him no surprises. As if he had heard it wrong, he asked: "You said, am I going to direct the film for you?"

"Yes, but we have limited funds." Nathan thought for a while and said shamelessly: "Are you willing to be a director for us for free?"

Originally, Jenny was still dissatisfied and wanted to take Nathan away and went out to discuss it first, but when Nathan said this, Jenny suddenly stopped.

I have long heard that Nathan has been an orphan since he was a child, and he has been short of money since he was a child, so he always picks out everything. I didn't expect to be so stingy, so I didn't even spend any money on asking someone

Is it a fool to be someone

At this moment, the other party seemed to confirm that Jenny's judgment was correct, and he nodded vigorously: "I want to, can you show me the script?"

In an instant, Jenny petrified, how is this possible? (End of this chapter)
