An unremarkable black business car parked under the office building of Firefly. The tall man with black curly hair wearing sunglasses and his manager got off the car and hurried into the office building with his head down. Across the road, Johnny, the owner of the convenience store, glanced idly through the glass window, and immediately recognized the identity of the other party, Tom Hanks.
Johnny is also considered a movie fan, and he goes to see one or two popular movies almost every week. Although he is nearly forty years old and has passed the age of star chasing, he knows all about Hollywood stars, big and small, like Tom Hank In this way, Johnny can recognize him at a glance when he is just wearing sunglasses and not deliberately disguised.
In Burbank, which is full of large and small film production companies, it is normal to meet one or two big stars, and Jonny didn't feel any alarm. He knew that the boss of the opposite film company had suddenly risen recently. Eric Williams, thinking that perhaps Tom Hanks came for the new film of the miracle director.
After serving two or three customers in this way, after five or six minutes, Jonny inadvertently saw another commercial vehicle stop across the road.
Out of curiosity, Johnny stared at the car door intently. Soon, two people got out of the car, a man and a woman. The man still covered his face with sunglasses. Although this man is a little shorter than Tom Hanks, his reputation in Hollywood is higher than Hanks. He is the popular Hollywood idol star Tom Cruise.
"Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise." Jonny stroked his chin and pondered for a while, suddenly thinking that maybe the paparazzi would be interested in this clue.
If a person comes here alone, it is not news. Although the paparazzi pay attention to every move of Hollywood stars, they are not particularly interested in these normal daily activities.
Only those stars who have become the focus of the news due to certain things in the recent period, such as big sales of works, scandals, divorce, drug abuse and other factors, will become the targets of the paparazzi. When "Home Alone" was just released, Eric was chased by the paparazzi for a period of time, because during that period, the public was most interested in him, a young director who had just grown up and performed miracles, as long as Eric's news was published There will be curious people scrambling to buy newspapers.
But now, two hot and popular actors in Hollywood appeared in the Firefly Film Company at the same time, and, coincidentally, both of them were named Tom, because they were similar in age, Hanks hadn't grown old yet, and the two were very famous in the circle. In a competitive position, so this must be a piece of news worthy of being published in the entertainment section.
Thinking of this, Johnny excitedly found a gossip tabloid, and dialed the news hotline on it. In order to be able to collect news materials, many newspapers will give certain rewards to those who provide clues. Of course, Johnny did not go to well-known large newspapers such as the "Los Angeles Times". The other party had no shortage of news, and the price offered would definitely not satisfy him.
"Hi, is that the Hollywood Information?... Yes, I have a big news..."
A few minutes later, Jonny put down the phone excitedly. The "Hollywood Information" keenly judged the great value of the news, so it generously offered Jonny $500 for clues, but the condition was that Jonny would not The clues were sold to other newspapers, and after some bargaining, they finally got $700, which was a windfall for Jonny who opened a small convenience store.
In less than twenty minutes, several paparazzi sent by the "Hollywood Information" rushed over, and after learning from Jonny that Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks had not left, they readily paid the clues fee. Then he squatted patiently outside the firefly headquarters.
After reaching an agreement with Columbia, Eric began to get the work of the two leading actors. After the success of three consecutive films, no one in Hollywood discriminates against Eric’s age, and no big name will directly reject Eric’s invitation to cooperate, even the popular Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks No exception.
What's more, after reading the outline of the script, the two Hollywood superstars keenly felt the excitement of this story. In this case, there was no reason to refuse.
Before, neither of them knew that the other had also received the invitation. But after Hanks proposed to play the robber, and Cruise also made a series of revisions to the script. So Eric disclosed the news to two people, hoping to have a face-to-face talk.
The two Toms also feel that with the current fame of the three, if they can cooperate successfully, the box office appeal it will bring is incalculable. What's more, there is the wonderful story of "Dark War". Perhaps this movie can create another box office miracle like Eric's previous two directorial works.
No one doesn't want to be the protagonist in a miracle, that's why today's meeting happened.
In the meeting room of Firefly, only Eric, Hanks and Cruise were left. Jeffrey and the two Tom’s agents were waiting outside, although Cruise and Hanks were both They are artists under CAA, but at their current level, CAA has almost no constraints on the two of them. Therefore, the two managers can only obediently do their own work and dare not make trouble.
Of course, once it is completely determined to cooperate, when negotiating the salary, the two managers still need to step in, and the other party is also eagerly waiting for this moment to come. Both managers have received instructions from high-level officials, and they can all be summed up in one sentence: Kill them to death!
In front of Cruise and Hanks, each had a complete script. What the two of them had seen before was only a brief outline of the script. It took half an hour to go through the script, Hanks touched his face, smiled and said: "Eric, I now understand that I am not suitable to play Andy. My appearance wants to be a woman, It is indeed a bit more difficult.”
Eric laughed, but Cruise didn't seem to hear Hanks' joke, and still frowned slightly: "Eric, I still think it's more appropriate to modify this plot. In the script setting, Since Andy is a master of make-up, then it is also a good choice to pretend to be another man, are you right?"
Hanks, who was sitting across from Cruise, raised his eyebrows. He felt that Cruise's behavior was too conservative. Cross-dressing a woman is not such a serious matter. As an actor, even if the director asked him to play a dog, as long as this requirement Reasonable, he went back to do it.
And he has just done some analysis on the script, the plot is not deliberate, the reason why Andy plays a woman is to let the villain relax his vigilance. In the script, the villain asked Andy's reverse woman to follow the younger brother to get the ransom, which can prove this point. If it was another man who was big and thick, he felt that the villain would be more likely to kill them with a gun. Two men appeared at the transaction scene at the same time. Is it weird
