Raising Dragons in Hollywood

Chapter 54: Fantastic Kerry Brothers

Views:

According to Sammy's original intention, he did not want to show the Kerry brothers a demo.

At this time, the film only had a rough cut of the plot, the soundtrack was not complete, and there were still some scenes that were not handled well in the middle.

This made Sammy a little uncomfortable.

After all, who wants to show off an unfinished piece of work

but…

—You have to show us, this is our common movie, isn't it

—We also invested in this movie, right? We have to see it!

- You can't let us know nothing. If someone asks us what the movie is about, it's embarrassing that we can't answer.

—Please, Sammy, let's see.

—We have invested so much financial, material and human resources, and we have also worked hard to promote it (Sami: Oh, I have learned a lot, so you call 'hype about the discord between the director and the actor' called propaganda), we are One team, we are one family, you can't completely exclude us!

The Kerry brothers reacted like a piece of super candy, sticking to it constantly, stalking and battling both hard and soft.

That's the ultimate reason for Sammy's displeased face, yet reluctantly agreeing to show them the dailies - getting bored!

"Please understand the expectations of our poor movie fans." Little Kerry took it as soon as he saw it, and was very good at talking as always.

With a smile on his face, he eloquently tried to turn the fact that the "black-hearted boss urged and inspected the work of the employees" into a more pleasing excuse for "fans can't wait to see the director's new work" .

But Sammy doesn't eat this set.

He is really stupid and sweet in some respects, but his IQ is always online and his brain is clear enough.

Therefore, he knows that for businessmen like the Kerry brothers, who have always been in the forefront of interests, as long as they still have value worthy of investment, their friendly attitude will be maintained for a long time, but once they lose their value...

Very simple, see what they did to Hello later!

So, no matter how rhetoric Little Kerry speaks.

Sammy always kept his face expressionless. He didn't even bother to look for them on the big screen. He called up the semi-finished sample of the movie from the computer and showed it to them directly.

But perhaps the best quality of the Kerry brothers is their ability to bend and stretch.

As we all know, in industries such as music, film and television, which are closely related to art, it is very easy to appear some geniuses with eccentric characters. And these geniuses often have unique and unique artistic talents.

But at the same time, while possessing excellent artistic talent, they tend to be sensitive in their hearts and feel more real to the world, their emotions are ups and downs, they come and go quickly, sometimes they are so excited that they want to go to heaven, sometimes they are not Desperate to jump off the building. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is just a small matter, but for them, it is often magnified into a major event comparable to a volcano and an earthquake, and then a fierce and difficult temper erupts, making a mess around.

So, these people are very difficult to deal with.

For a simple example, even the most normal looking Sammy belongs to a very sick group compared to normal people.

Don't look at Mickey seems to have easily become his good friend.

But that's all because Mickey, like him, believes in the existence of dragons (Mickeyon: Of course I believe I exist).

other people…

If once there is even the slightest bit of non-positive emotions about his dragon slaying dream.

The so-called non-positive emotions here include raising eyebrows in doubt, grinning slightly when trying to laugh, and even a perfunctory sentence or two involuntarily.

Even if there is no malicious intent, he will be immediately blacklisted by Sammy, and inexplicably will be labeled as 'this person is not with me', in this case, it is difficult to get his friendship make it harder.

As for the more serious ones, those who dare to mock and ridicule face to face...

Sammy will probably rush home immediately and take his eight brothers to go out together (the child is not stupid, the child is fine, if you can't beat the brothers, you can ask the brothers for help, even if the brothers do not get the inheritance of the warriors, but after all, everyone is warriors. Bloodlines, we should stand together, be friendly and help each other), and fight to defend the reputation of dragon slayer warriors.

Sounds a little funny.

But it is indeed the case.

Therefore, dealing with such people (neuropathy) must be cautious.

do not touch their bottom line;

not stimulate their emotions;

Do not disturb their so-called chasing dreams day and night;

But he tried to coax them to work for him.

This is definitely a very difficult and very technical job.

The Kerry brothers weren't particularly good at it either.

But their advantage is that…

At any time, he can put down the figure of the big boss, do not care about things, and has enough mind and patience to tolerate these weirdos.

In other words, their strong desire to pursue profit has overcome everything, and naturally can overcome everything.

As long as they can get enough benefits, let alone endure those geniuses with eccentric temperaments, even if they are allowed to hold a piece of shit as a treasure, they will be happy.

So, even if these two have all kinds of flaws...

But this quality alone is enough for them to eat in the whole circle.

Same thing this time.

Even though they knew they were unwelcome, the two happily huddled together in front of a computer, smiling and thanking Sammy in a friendly way.

Just hit this point.

There is no way or reason for Sammy to continue to lose his temper. On the contrary, he still has a little bit of prudence.

The Kerry brothers are getting ready for a movie.

At this time, Wolf, who was the best at camping in the crew, heard the news that they were coming, and even came over to show his hospitality. He served the brothers two cups of super-tasting pour-over coffee that he said was his own.

But how could the Kerry brothers possibly remember a puny little actor

They had long forgotten that 'they had praised Wolff's wonderful performance in "Snake Bane" in front of Sammy and tried to persuade Sammy to let Wolff into the group and play an important role'.

So, Kerry looked at each other with rather unfamiliar eyes, and said politely and politely, "Thank you, Joseph."

no doubt.

They confused the names of the actors who played bass and drummers.

After being sluggish for two seconds, Wolff was shocked, disappointed, disbelieving, and embarrassed.

After a while, he answered embarrassedly, "Uh, actually, I'm Wolf."

"Oh!"

Xiao Ke changed his name again without changing his color, and said again: "Thank you, Wolf."

Wolff didn't dare to sneer and replied in a low voice, "You're welcome."

Are you two just for comedy

Where did all this come from!

Sammy was amused by this little episode, and the bad mood from before was swept away.

At this time, the semi-finished film "Say Hello to the World" also began to play.

When Sammy first met Hello, he made a joke about the word Hello.

Therefore, when considering the name of the film, he directly used "Say Hello" at the beginning, on the one hand, to imply the team name of the Hello band;

But later, when the film was finished, he and the editor worked out how to edit it, and looked at all the plots of the whole film.

He suddenly thought that perhaps "Say Hello to the World" could better reflect the band's optimism, so he changed the name.

The Kerry brothers had no problem with the words of the film.

No matter what they thought in their hearts, on the surface, they still appeared to be very attentive... They fast-forwarded, skipped the only complete and just-determined theme song at present, and watched the plot.

Sammy:…

"The story looks good to begin with."

Da Kerry pretended to be very professional and made a comment.

"I prefer the dancers at the back of the stage."

Little Kerry also joked lightly.

The atmosphere is quite relaxed.

But soon, or not even ten kinds, the plot took a sharp turn.

This is also inevitable.

The story is based on the Hello band.

But Hello is really not a lucky band with good luck.

The expressions of the Kerry brothers invariably moved forward with the plot, and gradually became condensed.

It was a little doubtful and novel at first, but when the plot began to unfold slowly, they became more and more indescribable.

Because they have seen too many familiar people, things, things and plots in the film.

Frankly, Sammy isn't making any documentary.

Because in his opinion, no matter how real a documentary is claimed to be, it is essentially a performance.

Moreover, many times, in order to act more real, documentaries will appear more false and contrived.

From the beginning to the end, he just wanted to use the experience of the Hello band to tell a simple, even cliché story, a story of persistent pursuit of dreams.

In this way, there is no frame for yourself.

In terms of the plot, it is natural to have unlimited dramatic play and excavation.

For example, why didn't the band make any money on tour

Because the money was taken by the company.

For example, why didn't the money from the record go to the band

Because of being scammed by the company.

For example, why is the band's reputation going from bad to worse

Because companies use their songs to advertise junk goods.

For example, what did the company do when the band was finally down and out of place

Of course let them go!

This level of play and digging…

If you look at it as an ordinary audience, you may not feel it, but at most laugh at the unfortunate experience of this band.

But for the Kerry brothers, who started out in music, they were a little restless.

They had an inexplicable feeling of being knocked to the ground by surprise and slapped in the face.

For example, near the end of the film, Sammy took this scene very faithfully because of the fact that 'the Kerry brothers didn't pay Hello's royalties':

- Let's buy a copyright for Hello and make a documentary for them, shall we

-Can.

—Then I'll talk to them now and see how much I have to pay.

—Wait, why pay them

—…

- Filming a documentary for them is free publicity. Why should we give them money when we help them publicize

and many more!

Depend on! ! !

This plot

Did you do it on purpose

This is pointing at our nose and yelling at us!

"This little dwarf is too annoying! Why is everything in the movie?"

The two brothers had this idea at the same time.

But at the same time, they couldn't help but think about it again, but the more they thought about it, the more confused they became: "What's going on? Those in the movie, did we really do it with Hello? No? Well, maybe there is? But that one seems to be from another family. 's band, not Hello? Is it Hello? No... Damn! I can't remember!"

obviously.

On the one hand, it may be that the two brothers have done so many immoral things that they can't remember them; on the other hand, it also proves that some of Sammy's plots are too reasonable, so that the two brothers are completely Dizzy.

The semi-finished film was played quietly in the silence.

The Kerry brothers have no mood to chat at all.

They watched the half-finished film without saying a word in a strange silence.

Sammy sat there and drank tea all the time.

At the beginning, he still had a little bit of a guilty conscience, but when he watched it, he became confident: [The movie is originally a fiction, if you foolishly insist on substituting yourselves into it, it is none of my business! ]

But as mentioned earlier, the success of the Kerry brothers does have their uniqueness.

In the face of such a movie, I almost pointed at them and yelled at them [it's you, it's you, the insidious and cunning people, that made the protagonist band have a bumpy and downhill journey! You shameless villains, why don't you get out now and apologize! ]'s video...

The two brothers were not particularly angry.

After a long silence, they looked at each other again.

Presumably Jesus' teaching [if someone hits you on the right cheek, give him the left to hit him] came into play at this moment.

The two of them couldn't hold back, they turned their heads in unison, and asked Sammy a stubborn sentence: "Can you really make money when you shoot like this?"

Depend on! ! !

It's so fucking good! ! ! !

I really didn't expect to get such a wonderful viewing feedback.

Sammy, who was still casually drinking tea, almost spit out all the tea in his mouth!
