Producer [American Entertainment]

Between the lines of the script, Sabatino gave Sabatino a trace of familiarity.

He laughed in his heart. It wasn't William who inspired Armand, it was William who subtly influenced Armand, making the development direction of the script change word by word according to William's wish.

Sabatino really understands this William-style way of doing things too well, moistening things silently, hiding merit and fame deeply.

"A successful producer is often like a successful psychologist. The best way to persuade the creator to modify the script in the direction he wants and avoid unnecessary emotions and conflicts is to let He thought that idea was his own, and he was deeply attracted by that idea."

Although William's technique is still a little immature, considering his age, he has matured beyond imagination.

Just imagine, what would the director think if William told the director strongly from the very beginning that the script was not good and had to be changed?Even if the new suggestion is indeed better than the previous one, as the main creator of the work, the director must feel uncomfortable.This is human nature, and it has nothing to do with whether the director has a heart willing to accept other people's opinions. After all, a lot of movies have been shot. As a result, the young production assistant who joined later changed as soon as he said. It's child's play.

Although the director will definitely do what he said in order to please William in the end, but that is also unwilling. If the crew is over, they may even end up feuding over it.

What is the most important thing for a producer?There are many answers, but the word "connection" is absolutely indispensable.

If you cooperate with a crew, just talk about disbanding a crew, then William's journey as a producer in the future will definitely not be long, at least it will be very difficult.

Therefore, George, the real producer of Blood Red, understood what tricks William was playing as early as when William first contacted director Armand and recommended him to read more Asian horror literature.He has opinions on the script, but he can't say clearly, how to achieve his goal in a tortuous way is the time to test whether a producer's ability is outstanding.

In this regard, William, who is doing things for the first time, can be said to have exceeded everyone's expectations. He can bend and stretch, and he can save the country with curves.

Armand was so excited about the new script that he thought he and William had discussed together, and kept talking.

But Sabatino couldn't listen to any words anymore, he just stared at the script in a daze, his heart beat faster, the William he was familiar with was getting closer and closer to him.

—— "Don't you feel unwilling? After all, the idea is yours."

——"Please, this entire movie is mine. Producer center system, OK? Of course, sometimes, I will also strongly request to add my name at the end of the screenwriter column, after all, I paid It’s not as difficult as most people can imagine.”

Goldfinger 2B250 can only provide the prospect of the future, and cannot help to modify the script. William has to do it himself, and then use 2B250 to test, continue to modify, continue to test, correct the defects bit by bit, and find the future direction that is most suitable for the script.It is absolutely impossible to do this without a great deal of patience, it is simply mental devastation.

Sabatino seems to have forgotten to introduce himself all the time, he is born again.Well, it's not a big deal, it's how life should be lived, but this time, he will let him and William get what they are destined to get more smoothly.

***

Sabatino returned to the manor with the script Armand asked him to pass on to William.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the setting sun that had not yet completely set, and the faint moon hung in the sky at the same time.The resplendent and huge manor is brightly lit, and those lights seem to coat the buildings with a layer of soft light, which is beautiful, warm and timeless.

Sabatino's pace unconsciously became a little brisk, and going home has become his favorite word now, and thinking about it makes him feel very warm.

It was a good world, he was alive, and so was William.

Two servants, one on the left and one on the right, pushed open the double doors of the main building for the employer.Standing in the bright entrance, Sabatino saw that William was already waiting on the steps of the spiral escalator.The blond boy with blue eyes, white shirt, and red waistcoat, against the colorful oil painting glass, looks like a little prince who came out of those stories.

The pair of cousins ​​just looked at each other from a distance, with solemn expressions of "I have something to tell you".

Sabatino quickened his pace and walked in front of William in a few strokes.He wanted to apologize to William, for the fact that he had found Romeo behind his back and wanted to invest in William.He believes that William can do a good job in the film, but he is always a little worried that William, who has just entered the film industry, can grasp the funds.He felt... In the final analysis, it was a sign that he didn't believe in William's ability to produce films.

But after reading the script Armand brought, Sabatino felt he was slapped hard.William will always be William, no matter young or mature, he says he can do it, he can do it, and he can do it to the best.

He should give him more confidence.

Then, the cousins ​​of the Bernstein family said together: "Sorry."

"Why do you have to apologize?" X2

"You speak first." X2 again.

In the end, they decided to move to the restaurant, and while having dinner, they slowly discussed what they had done to each other during the day.

Sabatino said first: "I shouldn't question you last week. I saw the new script and you did a good job."

"Thank you." William was a little embarrassed by Sabatino's sudden praise.

In fact, William didn't care too much about Sabatino's attitude that day. To be precise, if Sabatino was not like that at the time, he would be more strange.He's used to the way Sabatino doesn't seem to like him no matter what he does.He also thought about it, what is there in him that Sabatino should look up to?In terms of the current achievements of the two parties, Sabatino and him are definitely separated by more than ten Mariana Trench.

"I rejected Uncle Romeo's gratuitous investment today, but I just remembered after I rejected it. You seem to be friends. I should be more tactful. I have caused you trouble again. Sorry." This is what William did wrong today.

Sabatino's expression remained the same. William felt that he didn't like him when he was so cold before, but now he was so cold that William felt at ease, because he didn't seem to take this matter to heart, to be precise , no matter what, Sabatino performed with ease."Don't worry, we're not friends," he said.

"Huh?" William was taken aback.

"It's just mutual benefit."

Romeo needs Sabatino to continue to be his 'friend' no matter what William does to Romeo, and of course Sabatino needs Romeo to be his 'friend' for the time being.This is how their circle plays. Once Sabatino naively believed that there were true feelings in the circle, but now, heh.

"What are your plans after the Christmas break?" William asked.

"I probably have to go back to New York first, Wall Street and my grandfather, there are some things that I need to deal with."

"Great, I happen to be going to New York with the blood red crew too."

I know, that's why I went to New York "on business".Sabatino said inwardly.

William continued: "Uh, would you mind if we take a ride with the wind?"

William also summoned up a lot of courage to speak to Sabatino. If it was just himself and went to New York with Sabatino's private jet, he wouldn't even ask. If he didn't talk to Sabatino Only when Tino goes back together will it cause unnecessary speculation.It's just that there are still a few main creators of the crew...

The blood red crew is really poor, the director sold all his scooter.During the Christmas break, they didn't even dare to go home because they couldn't pay for the return airfare. If William hadn't asked the secretary to bring the creators to his office that day, the creators would definitely be nesting on Staten Island. Instead of going back to Los Angeles for a family reunion.

Now that the holiday is coming to an end, how to return to New York cheapest has become a difficult problem for the crew.

William thought of Sabatino's private jet, free of charge.Anyway, he is also the one who wants to share the film crew's box office dividends in the future. If he can save more investment for the film crew, he will naturally save a little more.

William didn't think about box office dividends at the beginning. After all, he received a high salary from MGM every week, and it was he who asked to study on the crew. He never thought that the crew would have to pay extra. Pay him a salary.But the director strongly demanded to sign the contract, saying that although they couldn't afford cash, they could make the decision and give William a dividend in the box office in the future.

"He just wants to be bound to you," Sabatino is accustomed to this. "Look, aren't you trying to help them save airfare now? Although the director is very confident in the script, he must still Not sure about the future box office."

To put it simply, the director is writing a blank check.

Therefore, when the director gave William a dividend, he didn't feel distressed at all, and he even had a little hope of "using William's special contacts to help him promote and boost the box office in the future".

"Then they can..."

"They can come back to New York with us." Sabatino simply wouldn't say no.He would definitely satisfy any request from William, especially since this was the first time that William asked for his help after spending so long with him.

When director Armand received a call from William "helping them solve the air ticket", he was very happy.How much 35mm film is enough for the air ticket?Only with film can we have the confidence to continue to make good movies!

But Armand never expected that what William said had settled the air ticket and took a private jet to New York.

When someone led them through the special VIP passage, the director and the male and female protagonists of the crew were always in a very unreal state.

"This is the first time I've seen a plane at such a close distance." The heroine Caitlin said excitedly, "Look, this private plane is much bigger than those cheap domestic planes! Just us! God! When will I have my own private jet?"

The hero Hanks didn't speak, but in his heart, he also had the same longing. It would be great if he could own an airplane sometime.

The director, Armand, pretending to have seen more scenes, tried his best to put on a sullen face, trying to make himself appear mature: "If you can afford the plane, you may not necessarily be able to afford the flight route. That's the really expensive part."

In a word, William, a rich guy, is really fucking rich!

"I'm just taking my cousin's plane." William said modestly.

"..." I don't feel that you are being modest at all, okay? !I just feel that the country owes me such a cousin! X full crew.
