Chapter 81

There is no airtight wall in the world, and the conversation between Litt and John soon reached Orwitt's ears. Although Orwitt did not intend to intervene, he still wanted to know Litt's true thoughts.

"Do you really think that a woman who can't even afford the rent is suitable for the heroine of the new Ferrari Brothers film?" It was the restaurant we had dinner together last time, but this time the treat became Orwitz.

Lit put down the knife and fork in his hand and looked at Orwitz, "Do you think I'm deliberately making things difficult for John?"

"On the contrary, I know you are definitely not trying to make things difficult for him, so I am even more curious about what special is this actor named Naomi Watts that makes you so interested in her."

"intuition!"

"Intuition?" Orwitz was obviously stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head, "It's this answer again. When you predicted the box office prospects of "Titanic" some time ago, you also said so. Now you say so again. Can you have a more specific explanation?"

Lite shook his head regretfully.

Naomi Watts's experience in his career is pitifully simple. In the five years since she came to Hollywood to develop, she has only played some very inconspicuous supporting roles. It is purely nonsense to say that she has good acting skills or is optimistic about her performance in a certain movie. After thinking about it, she can only explain it by intuition.

Orwitz's understanding of this is that Litt has hidden information about the candidate for this role that he doesn't want others to know. Of course, it is also possible that this is a test for Litt on John.

Because of the situation in Naomi Watts, most agents don't look down on actors at all, let alone John, who once served as Charlize Theron's agent.

In this case, whether John acts according to Little's intentions or hesitates in the process will directly affect his future position in the company.

Orwitz has a good impression of John, so from the bottom of his heart, he hopes that John will not make a disappointing decision this time.

"Okay, let's change the topic!" Orwitz picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth. "At the premiere of "I'm crazy for Mary", Sean Connery and I made a bet. If the box office of this movie exceeds 100 million, then he would join Amg unconditionally after his contract with Caa expires. Now I won, and Sean Connery has less than three months left for the contract with Caa. During this period, I hope you can tailor a movie for him. I seem to have mentioned this to you before. Do you have any clues now?"

"There is one idea. The problem now is that there are no amg director clients who are good at filming such films, and it is also a bit difficult to deal with the actors, because in addition to Mr. Sean Connery, this movie may also require a few actors who are about the same age as him and are also well-known enough to work together. Among our amg artist clients, the average age is less than thirty."

The director's problem is easy to solve. Li Te already has a suitable candidate in his heart. Of course, it is difficult to convince the other party to join Amg, but this is not what Li Te is most worried about. The most difficult thing to deal with is the actor.

At the beginning of the company's establishment, Amg established a development model with cultivating newcomers as its core competitiveness, which also caused the company's customers to be younger. This may not be a problem when shooting general-type films, but when sending certain special films, you may encounter some trouble.

For example, now, Sean Connery's new film requires several veteran actors to play, but the actors who meet the requirements are basically in the hands of major agency companies such as Caa and William Morris, which brings considerable difficulty to the film's bundling plan.

"I know a few actors you mentioned. If necessary, I can communicate with them to see if I can convince them to join Amg. If it is really not possible, we can also consider joining forces with other brokerage companies."

Orwitz provided a solution, but the trade-offs still have to be done by Litt.

"I'm crazy for Mary" was a great success in the summer season, which allowed Amg to break out of the joint ban of several brokerage companies, and also forced these brokerage companies to adjust their strategies for Amg. If Amg takes the initiative to ask for cooperation at this time, I believe that several brokerage companies will refuse.

Of course, compared to these, Orwitz is more concerned about what Liter is going to shoot this time.

"Did you forget what movie Mr. Sean Connery is famous for? This time I want to make a movie similar to that."

"You want to make a movie like 007?"

Orwitz was really a little surprised this time, and this accident also included two different costs: surprise and surprise.

Sean Connery is the first actor to play 007. Now that I have asked him to star in this type of film, this idea alone is a bit exciting. But on the other hand, whether Sean Connery's age can play the leading role and perform well in such a film is also a very worrying question.

"To be precise, this is not a simple action movie, it can also be regarded as a drama movie, and it also has a little comedy element."

Lite's explanation made Orwitz confused because so many labels were put together, it always made people feel a little inappropriate.

"Because this is a story about the former Cia agent after retirement. They should have lived a peaceful and peaceful retirement life, but suddenly they were involved in a conspiracy and were constantly chased. Finally, they found that the main messenger of the conspiracy was Cia. In order not to let the conspiracy succeed, they had to return to their old careers. In the end, they even broke into Cia's headquarters and killed the dark forces hiding in Cia."

Li Te roughly told his thoughts, and this story was actually derived from the later adaptation of "Red Flame Battlefield" from the DC comics. However, in 1997, DC had not released this comic, let alone the movie.

The original film's male protagonist Bruce Willis was about the same age as the current Sean Connery when he starred in the movie. The identity of a retired agent is extremely suitable for Sean Connery, because no one in this world is more suitable for playing a retired agent than Sean Connery, because he is not only the first 007 actor, but also the most highly regarded among the previous 007 actors.

Of course, Litt would not tell Orwitz directly. He just briefly mentioned the concept that the film wanted to express, which immediately resonated with Orwitz. When people get old, fighting spirit will exist and can do a lot of things.

This is a bit like Orwitz's mentality at this time. Although he is less than fifty years old now, working with a young man like Litt does seem to be really old. Whenever he thinks of this problem, Orwitz will feel a little depressed.

Naturally, the movie "Red Flame Battlefield" immediately won Orwitz's love. He even had a very strong impulse, and he must promote the filming of this movie anyway.

"Shaan Connery knew your thoughts and would be so excited that he couldn't sleep. In fact, even I feel excited now. You don't have to worry about the actors, but who are you going to be the director of this film?"

Orwitz's question directly reached the key point, but the answer given by Litt made him frown.

(The third update will be made from tomorrow until it is released. It will be considered as a supplementary update in the past few days. It will explode in December. There is no other reason. I just hope that everyone can subscribe and support it after it is released. Although I said before, regardless of whether the grades are good or bad, the grades will definitely affect the speed and enthusiasm of writing. After all, in addition to interest in writing, frogs also want to make a living through this. Thank you first!)
