Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

"Isn't that Sean Young?"

Carrie Fisher has been in Hollywood for a long time. Although the woman wore a leather muff on her head, tight black leather jumpsuit, and a black leather cape, she was still exposed from her low-cut dress. The partial and exposed chin identified the real owner.

Ronald also looked at the woman. The headgear was obviously modified by himself using some kind of special eyepatch. The cape seemed to be a peripheral product of Batman's movie. There was also a zipper that went straight to the bottom of the jumpsuit in the front. It was obvious that The source is also very questionable.

"How did you recognize it?"

"Don't ask, Ronald." Carrie Fisher ignored him.

"Who else has to show off even though she's wearing a leather suit that covers her face..." Whoopi Goldberg commented next to her. Actresses like Sean Young are indeed the public enemy of other actresses in Hollywood.

"Look, she's coming in," Carrie Fisher yelled.

After all, he was a Hollywood star, so the security guard didn't dare to go too far. Sean Young strode into the CAA office building and ran rampant in the building designed by I.M. Pei, cursing as he walked:

"Tim Burton, come out! Don't you dare to face the most suitable person in Hollywood to play Catwoman? How did you promise me in the first film?"

Ronald remembered that during the casting process for the first Batman, the "Blade Runner" actress was officially selected to play the role of female reporter Vicki Vale. Later, she fell off and was injured while training to ride a horse, so she had to withdraw and gave it to Kim Basinger, who was recommended by Ronald.

At that time, in order to persuade her to exit gracefully and not make a big fuss, Warner Bros. asked the crew to suspend production until she recovered. Director Tim Burton also promised to let her come back to play the heroine in the second film.

"Burton, where are you? You can't hide. I'm chasing you from Warner Bros. Do you think you can hide from me today?" As he was talking, Sean Young walked over to Niceta's office.

"Oh, Shxt." Carrie Fisher seemed to have a grudge against her and hurriedly hid under the table.

"Does Burton work here?" Crazy woman Sean knocked on the office door.

"This is not Burton's agent's office," Ronald opened the door, and Whoopi Goldberg came out and pointed to the aisle in the other direction.

Seeing her walking away, curiosity in human nature aroused. Ronald and Whoopi Goldberg looked at each other and followed her from a distance to watch the excitement.

"Burton, come out here, don't you dare to face the most suitable person in Hollywood to play Catwoman?" Finally, Sean Young found Burton's agent's office, opened the door, and shouted loudly inside. Call.

"Burton, have you forgotten how you promised me in the first movie? Why did you choose Annette Bening, a bitch, just because she was on the list of Warren Beatty? How do I compare? Don’t want to fall in love with her?”

"Ms. Yang, Tim Burton is not here. I have to ask you to keep your voice down. If you continue to interfere with us, I have the right to let you go." Ron Meyer couldn't stand it and came over to ask her to leave. But after all, Sean Young's request was very legitimate, and he didn't dare to be too forceful, so he could only persuade him with kind words.

"This is not over yet..." After saying this, Sean Yang left in a rage, like a gust of wind.

"Is she also your client?" Ronald stepped forward to greet Ron Meyer.

"I hope she's not..."

The two chatted at the door of the office. Because of Ovitz, the relationship between Ronald and Meyer was in a subtle state of cooperation.

"Oh my god, is that crazy woman gone? Is she not coming back?" At this moment, a voice came from under the desk in the office, and Tim Burton crawled out.

"Pfft..." Ronald almost couldn't help laughing.

Fortunately, Tim Burton is not ashamed of this, "You have never met such an actress, less trouble... this matter is finally over..."

Annette Bening hooked up with the famous Hollywood actor Warren Beatty, and now with his support, just like Kim Basinger in the first film, she came from behind and got the role of Catwoman.

"She finally said, this is not over yet..." Ronald repeated Sean Young's words.

"What else can she do? I have already given in. Besides, returning the role to her in the second film is purely her own conjecture. Can she still go on a TV show and promote it all over the world?" Tim Horton was a little disdainful.

"On TV?" Ronald frowned.

"Shxt, she can really do such a thing." Ron Meyer woke up in shock and hurriedly called the talk shows on major TV stations.

……

"Viewers, our next guest is a real Hollywood actress, big name you know? Now Tim Burton and Warner, have confirmed Annette Bening to play Catwoman... Ha, now you Got some inside information?

No, the guest is not Bening. I am inviting another actress here. She said she wanted to question Tim Burton why he didn’t let her play Catwoman as promised..."

After a public relations emergency, The Late Show with David Letterman didn't give Sean Young that chance. But another Johnny Carson screenwriter-turned-talk show host, Joan Rivers, doesn't care about this. Her program challenging Johnny Carson's Late Show has poor ratings and desperately needs this. gimmick to prove your ability.

And then Sean Young comes out in that Catwoman costume and says, "Tim Burton, why don't you return my call? I'm the original Batman heroine, remember? You always talk about business." It's business. The basics of business are to return phone calls. It's not hard to understand.

Do I have anything to apologize to you for? Have I done anything unprofessional? Am I late? Did I say anything bad about you? I even jumped on a big horse which scared me to death because you... asked me to.

When I fell off that grumpy horse and broke my shoulder, you didn't even send me a "get well soon" card..."

"Um, she really got the lead role in Batman 1? Then she fell and got injured. Will the film crew allow her to come back in the second film?" Diane and Ronald watched the farce together. The two women directly exposed many of the dirty things about Hollywood casting and put them under the eyes of the audience. After all, it seems that Sean Young has no need to tell such easily exposed lies to create trouble for himself. That must be director Tim Burton's problem.

"Hey, there is such a thing, but by doing this, her last possibility of playing Catwoman is ruined."

Ronald still had some sympathy for this crazy woman. There are rumors in the industry that director Burton deliberately selected the horse and did not let her do any training before getting on the horse to practice.

Moreover, in the past few days, while Burton and the studio have tried their best to prevent her from appearing on any TV shows, Annette Bening has actually withdrawn from the cast of the Batman sequel.

She was pregnant with Warren Beatty's child. This unexpected situation made Biddy, a playboy for many years, suddenly long for family happiness. He asked Bening to give birth to the child and he was responsible for raising it.

If Sean Young didn't come to this scene, the film crew might go back and look for her.

... "What do you think of things like Sean Young?" Mario Casal of Carocco Pictures asked Ronald at the project meeting for the new film a few days later.

"If I were a top executive at Warner Bros., I would give the movie role back to Sean Young..."

"Why?" Mario Casal asked Ronald while shaking hands with Jean-Claude Van Damme and Lundgren. The two male protagonists were also attracted by this topic. Hollywood, like all American audiences, has been endlessly curious about this big gossip lately.

"Look at the media reports on this matter. How much free space would there be if Sean Young was used back? I heard that the casting of the villain for the sequel was not smooth, so why not hype it up. After all, the first one lost money..."

"Ah, hahahaha..." Everyone laughed. Warner Bros.'s operation of making Batman lose money has gone out of the Hollywood circle and has become a joke across the country. Anyone who makes fun of this kind of creative accounting method nowadays will use Warner's Batman as a metaphor.

"This is Mr. Roland Emmerich, and this is Ronald Lee..." Mario Casal introduced to Ronald the new film "Reinvented Warrior (tentative title)" shot by the two action movie stars. director.

"My honor...to meet Ronald, who is well-known in Germany..." Roland Emmerich is a German. His science fiction film "Moon 44" was released on video in America and did very well.

It just so happened that Ronaldo's new sci-fi action film with Roger Corman was missing a director, and Carloco's Mario Casal introduced him. After the three people evaluated the film, they all felt that it was very suitable for the style of the new film, so the three-way cooperation gave the film a green light.

Originally, Ronald wanted to invest in a new film, and several major studios were interested in cooperating. But when they saw that their partner was Roger Corman, they were all cautious. After reading the script, they all backed down.

Because the plot is completely very Roger Corman-esque:

Two Vietnam War soldiers clashed with another soldier, Devereaux, because Sergeant Andrew massacred civilians. The two shot each other and died.

Thirty years later, their frozen corpses were implanted with computer chips and entered into war programs, transforming them into a new generation of war robots - "reconstructed warriors."

But the chip suddenly overheated, causing the two to regain their memories...

Talking about this script, if the guns of the reconstructed warriors were changed to guns that fire biubiu green lasers, it would be full of authentic Roger Corman flavor.

It just so happens that Roger Emmerich's "Artificial Moon 44" is also full of this kind of cheap science fiction flavor. This person is a rare talent among German directors. He used German actors and crew to shoot an English film with the goal of entering the American market and making money.

This is very different from the performances of several other German directors, such as Wim Wenders. Just right for the taste of Ronald and Casal et al.

"This is a good idea, is it possible for us to also..." Mario Casal heard this and greatly appreciated it. This trick of getting free page without spending any money is very inspiring.

For Ronald, investing in the film "Reinventing Warriors" filled the staff's free time. No profit, no loss, or less compensation would be fine. For Roger Corman, it was a game of mind. He misses his days as a filmmaker and wants to return to the front line at any time.

But with Mario Casal, it's a different story. "Terminator 2" has used up the last coin of his company, and he is waiting to start shooting some B-level movies so that he can recover some capital.

After all, the boss of a medium-sized Hollywood producer doesn't even have a private jet. What's going on?

"What's possible?" Ronald hadn't reacted yet.

"I asked, is it possible for us to create a news event like this? Let the media automatically give us free space?" Mario Casal lowered his voice.

"This..." Ronald thought to himself, you are learning and applying it. However, "Batman Returns" has the foundation of the first film, and Sean Young is such a character who is not afraid of trouble and must cause trouble. How do you ask us to learn from a science fiction action movie like this?

"How about the two of them?" Mario Casal gestured with his eyes to Jean-Claude Van Damme and Lundgren, who were standing aside like two bodyguards.

"What else can you think of? Why don't you discuss it with them yourself." Ronald felt that this was really a big problem. Sean Young has made many well-received movies before and is also good-looking. These two are second-tier action stars. Its popularity is still relatively limited to the video market, and some viewers with special tastes who like Hong Kong-style martial arts action movies.

Soon, Mario Casal, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Lundgren discussed for a while, and then came back to tell Ronald their thoughts.

"Dissatisfied with each other and taunting each other in public?"

Ronald shook his head, that was a bit bad.

"Why is it bad? You see, before the boxing match starts, there is a weighing ceremony. At that time, both sides can talk big to each other, and then the media will report crazy..." Lundgren originally fought with Stallone in Rocky. He is very familiar with boxing promotion methods for boxing matches.

"Anyway, it's not good. You two are action stars (although not as famous as Schwarzenegger), not boxers. Such mutual criticism will make the fans think of you."

"That's true. Fighters don't win by talking..." Jean-Claude Van Damme is actually smarter than Lundgren. He had an earlier and better plan on how to build his own personal brand.

"Instead of trolling each other, we have to rely on our actions to speak..."

"You mean, the two of us have a fight?"

"No, have you seen the news about the fight between Mike Tyson and Mitchell Green? Tyson won the previous match by points, then they had a street fight and almost had a rematch."

"How about you guys come too?" Cassar was overjoyed when he heard this.

"No, no, no, don't fight. It will damage your image too much. Just push each other and make some disdainful movements and expressions..." Ronald stopped quickly. Fans of Jean-Claude Van Damme and Lundgren believe that they can really fight one against eight.

If a fight breaks out and a winner is determined, it will be a huge loss.

As long as there are some suggestive actions in public, the media will definitely come to report it.

……

Carolco and Daydream Pictures announced a new film, and the two leading actors Jean-Claude Van Damme and Lundgren had a near conflict at the press conference...

Who is the karate king of Hollywood?

Sure enough, at the project launch conference, the two had a quarrel and then pushed each other. Just when they were about to fight, they were pulled away by the entourage. It immediately became a hot topic in Hollywood gossip newspapers and started to hype.

"Well, the effect is okay. This experiment was good. I will try it again in a bigger scene when the time comes..."
