"Hello, Mr. Williams, I like your "Dark War" very much. Not only is the plot of this movie great, but the soundtrack is also very good, especially the "Silent Love" when we met on the bus, I heard that you wrote this piece of music yourself, which is really surprising." Quentin quickly started talking about Eric's friendly appearance, and directly talked about Eric's movie that is still in theaters. "Dark War", although he admired Eric's achievements in movies, he didn't feel much about Eric's previous films, except for the latest "Dark War" with a unique style.
Eric smiled modestly: "Actually, the soundtrack composer also put in a lot of effort, I just provided some inspiration."
"No, you can't say that. For music, inspiration is the most important thing," Quentin retorted immediately.
Lawrence Bender next to him was a little anxious. He knew that the meeting was only for an hour. Looking at the staff around him, he knew that the other party might start work at any time. Almost, but don't waste too much time. However, he didn't dare to interrupt the conversation between the two, so he could only wink at Quentin lightly.
Seeing Lawrence Bender's eager look, Eric didn't talk to Quentin much, and said directly: "Let's go to the lounge to chat, and have a working meal together by the way, compared to you haven't eaten yet."
"Of course, thanks, Mr. Williams."
"Just call me Eric," Eric replied, and took a look not far away: "You two wait a moment." After speaking, he hurriedly walked towards Drew and Aniston, and the two baby lumps seemed to be about to If there is a fight, it will be a big game if there is a fight here.
"Hey, Drew, Jane, what are you talking about?" Eric asked after approaching, looking at the two girls who were staring at each other, as if ready to strike at any time.
Seeing Eric walking in, the little girl immediately gave up the confrontation with Aniston, ran over first, put her arms around Eric's arm, and complained: "She started the trouble, Eric, I just told you She said hello, and then she got annoyed, so petty."
"It's you..." Aniston stared at Eric with a look of grievance and anger. Yes, he was staring at Eric, but not Drew. This made Eric a little confused, so he had to ask: "Girl , how did you greet Jenny?"
Drew didn't seem to see Aniston's angry look, shrugged, and said, "It's nothing, she came out of the room, I just went up and patted her butt, and said, 'Hey, big fat girl, Your ass got rounder again', and then she panicked."
The corner of Eric's mouth twitched, and he didn't need to look at the little flames in Aniston's eyes to understand why the chick was angry. The girl's words were completely unintentional, probably just to tease Aniston about gaining weight again, but it hit an embarrassing incident that the chick was least willing to mention, and the chick probably thought he related that embarrassing incident to Drew said it, and it was Drew's ridicule this time.
Thinking of this, Eric let go of the girl, stepped forward to hug the chick, and explained in Aniston's ear: "Okay Jane, Drew definitely didn't care, don't be as knowledgeable as her."
"You promise?" Aniston blinked.
Eric patted the little girl on the back: "I swear, that...how is it possible, right?"
"Well..." After the little girl realized that it was a coincidence, she pushed Eric away: "The two guests are still waiting, you go and deal with them, I'm going to eat."
"I went to eat too, I don't know how the lunch here is," the girl murmured with her big eyes, then turned and left.
"This is a studio, you two, don't make trouble, be good." Eric confessed worriedly.
"snort!"
"You still need to say!"
The two girls said without looking back, and left separately.
Eric saw the two girls going in different directions, so he took Lawrence Bender and Quentin Tarantino to the lounge with confidence, and at the same time asked his assistant to bring three lunches.
"Drew has already told me everything, so can you let me read the script first?" Eric said after sitting down at the simple table in the lounge.
"Of course no problem," Lawrence Bender took out a thick script from his satchel and pushed it in front of Eric.
Eric glanced at the title of the script, it was neither "Reservoir Dogs" nor "Pulp Fiction", but "The Seven-color Robber". He opened the script calmly.
Although based on the name of this script, Eric already understood that this script must have many similarities with "Reservoir Dogs". The six robbers in the store were similar. Eric also understands this situation. Before writing a script, many screenwriters actually have certain ideas in their minds for several years. However, the scripts written at different times will definitely be very different.
It is impossible for ordinary people to realize this difference. However, as a time traveler, Eric was lucky enough to encounter such a thing. It is quite interesting to think about it.
The assistant quickly brought up three bento boxes, along with a few bottles of water.
"Quentin, Lawrence, eat first and leave me alone." Eric looked up at the two people who were staring at him expectantly, and instructed.
"Of course, thank you." Quentin and Lawrence hurriedly grabbed the cutlery, opened the bento, and ate a few mouthfuls indiscriminately. However, in this case, neither of them had much appetite. After Rick lowered his head and continued to read the script, the two of them slowly stopped eating.
Eric also noticed the actions of the two people, and didn't persuade them anymore, but turned another page of the script.
The plot of "Color Robbers" is roughly the same as the "Reservoir Dogs" seen in the previous life. It is still the story of a gangster who summons a few people who don't know each other to rob a jewelry store and is ambushed by the police. However, as can be seen from the name, the six robbers in the previous life have become seven.
As for the plot, from the beginning of the script, Quentin's chattering style was undisguised. Immediately afterwards, the robbery failed, and the two robbers drove to the bridge section at the meeting point.
Of course, in this script, Quentin is still the same as in his previous life, imitating several scenes in the Hong Kong movie "Dragon and Tiger". The director explained this matter, but in Eric's view, this is completely a report of the media tabloids putting gold on his face.
Because of the original version in his mind for comparison, it took Eric just over 20 minutes to read all of the nearly 100-page script.
After putting down the script, Eric looked at the two people who looked anxious, and nodded: "Not bad, let's eat first."
Quentin and Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Since Eric said so, the possibility of investing in this movie is very high. In order to increase the success rate, Lawrence listed the budget of the movie behind the script. a million dollars.
Both of them believe that their unique style of film should arouse Eric's interest, and with a budget of only 1 million US dollars, I believe that for Eric's current net worth, investing in this film will be no problem at all. . In fact, if it wasn't for the right to direct and produce the movie, the two of them didn't have to choose Eric.
After thinking about this, Quentin and Lawrence also had lunch with a relaxed expression on their faces. After waiting for two hours outside the Fox studio, both of them were already hungry.
After lunch, Eric picked up the script again: "I heard from Drew, you two plan to make this movie yourself?"
"Yeah, Eric, I... We've already done a movie before, so I think it's perfectly fine for the two of us to do this script alone."
Eric nodded noncommittally, flipped through a few pages, and said, "You have your own film company now, right?"
The two didn't understand why Eric would suddenly ask this. They looked at each other, and Lawrence Bender nodded: "Yes, it's called 'band-apart', the name was given by Quentin, inspired by the film master Godard's early The Other Gang."
Eric knew that Godard had filmed the famous "King Lear", but he didn't know the movie "The Other Bunch", so he didn't understand what the name of the film company meant, and he didn't want to find out.
"That's right, Lawrence, Quentin, are you interested in joining Firefly?"
"Um?"
"Ah?" The two uttered puzzled syllables at the same time.
Eric explained: "I mean, the film company of the two of you is just an empty shell. Are you interested in joining my Firefly Film Company? You know, my company is growing now."
Quentin and Lawrence glanced at each other. They still had a certain understanding of Firefly. Although this film company was established by Eric himself, and most of the films produced were only Eric's own films, its strength But it should not be underestimated. If you can join, it must be a good thing. It's just that the two of them are just unknown people now, and they don't understand why Eric extended an olive branch to them. It doesn't make sense anyway. (The novel "I Am Hollywood" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 100% lucky draw gift for everyone!
