Chapter 451 (1/2)
Empire Theatre, New York.
Song Ya and Daniel meet in the VIP box here. The other party calls to say that there is a traffic jam on the road, so we can arrive later.
”Aplus, don't you think about it?” Only Hamlin sat there waiting with him.
”I want to wait, and maybe motura won't let me wait.” Song Ya asked: ”in the case of fluorescent agent, please reach a settlement with the other party's lawyer as soon as possible. How much do they offer?”
”Last time we met, it was 1.2 million.” Hamlin replied: ”the court will be held again next month. According to your requirements, the preset bottom line is only 200000 yuan. If the other party offers, I just shake my head. Tomorrow, if I contact the lawyer of the other party for no reason and take the initiative to make a settlement, they will smell out the smell. It is not sure that the deal can be completed at 1.2 million yuan. ”
”So what is the optimal solution?” Song Ya asked.
”I'll try to create a chance to meet with the opposing lawyer, talk about your case in a restaurant or coffee shop by the court, and then lower the price a little bit to reach an agreement.” Hamlin replied.
The lights in the box and in the auditorium were dimmed, and the tragic world of the classic musical was about to begin. The noisy voices gradually died down, and they both lowered their voices.
”Yes, as soon as possible.”
”The maximum amount of settlement is 1.2 million?”
”You can do it as you see fit. You can raise it a little bit. In a word, you can close this case before motura starts.”
”I see. What's going on in Hollywood?” Hamlin asked.
”I got the crew done. Basically, the hostess is Amy Adams...”
Song Ya's thoughts returned to the day before he came to New York. He and yelemov called the casting director to the hotel.
”The different sky at the end of the year is to partner with Johnny Depp. No matter how the box office is, professional word-of-mouth will not be bad.” Casting director said: ”according to my experience, his stock is bullish, so we can sign him to play the villain who is the former boyfriend of the female leader. We should not be able to get it. The higher the film pay is...”
”Let's not talk about it for a while.” Yelemov called him here on the pretext of casting her ex boyfriend. ”Let's talk about the mistress. Mr. aplus is for Amy Adams. You should support her in the fourth round.”
”Oh! Again When we talk about this, the casting director is bound to burst out. The middle-aged white man crazily hugs his head with both hands. ”Amy Adams is not the best choice. No, she's not even as good as Samantha Cole, who's a terrible dancer! APLUS……”
He looked at Song ya, who was standing against the table. ”You made the script yourself. You know, I don't even care about temperament, dance and acting. Just holding up that scene is not convincing enough! Where can't a male dancer lift her? And this is the key plot for the male and female masters to get to know each other and make them have a good impression on them! ”
”We can find some skinny boys to go with her in the play.” That's what song Ya said in the original movie.
”I can't, I can't...” The casting director shook his head. ”I'll stick to it. With another Amy, Amy Aker will be much more perfect. Juliana Marguerite can do it. Even calling that Charlize Theron back is better than Amy Adams.”
”Can you not be so stubborn?” Yelemov continued to advise: ”we call you here to talk in private, that is Let me be clear. I just want you to give us a face and we will repay you in other places. Old Larry, he has let go. ”
”I'm sorry, I can't. this movie is ruined by Amy Adams.” He said.
”Not so much exaggeration?” Song Ya said, ”as long as you speak for us in the fourth round...”
The other side shook his head and stood up. ”I have nothing to say. I'm sorry aplus. I'm responsible for the ampere Lin entertainment.”
”Damn it! What's the matter with you? What's wrong with you? ” Song Ya immediately impatiently said, ”this film is my money, my a + film studio production, my final editing right! Is it necessary for you to always play against me in this matter? ”
”You can fire me.” He buttoned up his suit, turned around and was about to go out. Song Ya stopped him in front of him.
”Don't think I dare to fire you.” Song Ya stares at him fiercely.
”Well, fire it. Tell Katherine about a phone call.” The other party held up his head without fear.
“Fxxk！ Yes, you're fired! ” Sonya changed to a black voice and yelled, ”you can't bear the anger of people like me. Believe me.”
”I'm not only going to fire you, but I'm going to let the crew and William Morris, who's in charge of some of the cast members, fire all the people you've chosen and lose money? I don't care, you know? I don't care! ”
”When the time comes, the wishes and benefits you make when you get those people into the crew, the women who sleep are your enemies, your laughing stock, ha! I'd like to see if there will be a scandal in Billboard magazine when I see it... ”
The other side's face broke down, and he lowered his head to avoid song Ya's fierce eyes. However, he soon controlled his mood and began to smile and look up, ”is it necessary? Just for a woman? You don't think you're going to be a laughing stock in Hollywood? ””You piss me off, really.” Song Ya compared the gesture of shooting, ”bang! I'll get out of Hollywood if I play this ticket. ” He tapped on his temple. ”But you can roll. Get out.” He made way for the road, and looked at yelemov with a worried face. Yelemov sighed slightly.
The casting director gritted his teeth and strode to the door in silence. Then, he turned around and changed a flattering smile. ”Hey, aplus, don't be so excited. I was just joking.”
”No one's kidding here.” Said yelemov.
”Aplus, take it easy...” He went to song Ya and said, ”well, I don't really care who the damned mistress is. I just used a strategy. You know, the more I entangle myself in the selection of the hostess, the more powerful the other cast members will have. Come on, it's a common trick in Hollywood. I've been found out, ha ha... ”
He laughed for a while. Seeing that song Ya and yelemov were still serious, he had to chat up and say, ”the lady is Amy, isn't it? Don't worry, I'll support her in the fourth round. She's very beautiful and lovely. She's the hostess? No problem. ”
Song Ya and yelemov looked at each other again, and both laughed bitterly.
”So, so I didn't get fired, did I? ”
Song Ya's recollection is interrupted by the sonorous prelude to the tragic world. He sees five prisoner actors line up on the stage, singing an excerpt of the opening play lookdown.
”Look down, look down, avoid their eyes, look down, look down, you will die here...”
”Why hasn't Daniel come yet?” He asked Hamlin.
”I'll ask again.” Hamlin went outside the box with his cell phone.
Song Ya thought about it and went out with him. He turned on his mobile phone and dialed sandy Glenn again. He left a message and called his assistant. He got through, but he still said that he would inform Mr. sandy Glenn. Please wait for him to call back.
”It's almost there.” After Hamlin's call, he and Sonya return to the box and sit down.
”Come in, sir. You're tired and the wind is biting outside at night. Even though you and I are so humble, we should share our help...”
When the musical was performed, Jean Valjean was entertained by Bishop Myriel. However, he stole the silver from his house at night and was arrested and returned. The bishop did not disclose it. Instead, he admitted that he had given the silver to Jean Valjean and let the soldiers let him go.
Song Yagang just convergence in the heart of impatience, immersed in the plot, the shoulder was pressed, ”aplus.” Daniel is here.
”Sit down, please.” Hamlin opened his seat for him.
”Sorry, it's too much traffic.” Daniel laughs.
”It doesn't matter. I think you know the play by heart?” Song Ya joked.
”Yes, I like both the French and English versions very much.” Daniel is of French origin. This musical was adapted by French musical composers Claude Michel Schoenberg and Alan bobley from Hugo's original work of the same name. Naturally, the premiere is also French.
”Did you talk to Samantha in Hollywood?” Daniel sat down and asked.
”No, I only saw her audition video. Seriously, other girls were jealous of her entering the fourth round of audition.” Song Ya gave him a vaccination.
”I heard from her, it doesn't matter. I'm already very grateful to get him into the fourth round. Just tell me.” Daniel asked me something about the preparation of my life movie, and then turned to the main purpose, ”so, what can we do for you?”
”Mariah Carey, some executives at Sony Columbia Records, is certain.” Sonya moved his chair, got close to him, and whispered, ”Sandy Glenn and MJ should be busy touring around the world, but I think I can get them.”
”Winning MJ means winning epic records. Am I right?” Daniel asked.
”Yes, you're right.” Song Ya nods.
He nodded and put his hand on Song Ya's shoulder. ”Wait, listen first. I like this one best.”
On the stage, Fantine was about to start an excerpt from Idreamed adream: ”once upon a time, people were pleasant, their voices were gentle, and their words were pleasant. Once upon a time, there was no taboo in love. The world was a song, and the song was touching... ”
Fantine was pregnant, but was abandoned by a heartless man. In Hugo's era, unmarried children were not allowed by the society. She had to foster the children in the hotel owner's house and go to work in Jean Valjean's factory. However, she was excluded by other female workers. Her letters were opened privately, and the secret of a child was revealed. He was driven out of the factory and lost his job.
”But there are always dreams that can't come true. There are always storms that will destroy people. The kind of life I once dreamed of was quite different from the hell on earth...”
All three watched quietly. Fantine lost her income, but the hotel owner and his wife kept writing to ask for money for her daughter Cosette. She had to sell her beautiful long hair, and then her front teeth Finally, her self-esteem was worthless, and she had no choice but to become a prostitute.”Sell it, sell everything you can...”
Sonya recalled what happened in Hollywood again.
Or yesterday, after finishing the casting director, he went to Ivana chaburke's performance room to report his good news to Amy.
”Is this compensation?” Amy wasn't happy. She nestled into her arms and said, ”there won't be any more women around you, will you? Hally said that stars like Maria Kelly can't accept you having an affair with others after they have been officially announced to you... ”
”Did you hear that?”
”We heard you call her Mimi.”
”I'm sorry, Amy.” Song Ya hugged her and wiped the tears off her face. ”I can't be so ridiculous forever.”
”I thought I had a chance. Those Hollywood girls said behind their backs that I was bichi who stole my best friend's boyfriend. They were always saying, always saying, I didn't like it here at all.” Amy said plaintively.
