Chapter 105 With the French

He greeted Spielberg, called Natalie again, and the group returned to the hotel and went straight to the living room of Ryan's suite.

Under Nicole's introduction, the two sides met. The three people who came with her were Frenchmen Jean Renault and Luc Besson, as well as his assistant.

"You guys sit down, I have something to talk to Ryan."

After the waiter brought coffee and hot tea, Nicole pulled Ryan directly into the bedroom, but the originally bright smile disappeared without a trace, and her beautiful face tended to be transformed into an iceberg.

"What happened, Nicole?"

When he closed the bedroom door and saw the Australian girl turning dark, he felt a little swaying in his heart.

"Ryan, what are you thinking? Why did you write such a script? God, a twelve-year-old girl falls in love with a middle-aged killer. What do you think?" Nicole pressed him on the small sofa and stared at him condescendingly.

"I..." Before he could explain, she said again, "or are you starting to enter the rebellious period and full of random thoughts? Do you know that such a work will cause huge controversy?"

"Only if there is controversy can you get a box office." Ryan murmured in a low voice, noticed the knife-like eyes coming, and quickly closed his mouth obediently.

"Box office? Nat said nothing wrong. At a young age, you are all in one's body..." Nicole had not studied Chinese specifically, obviously couldn't remember what the smell of copper smell said, "Also, is this the script you specially prepared for Nat? This will put her under tremendous pressure."

"Okay, Nicole, the argument and pressure will only be directed at me. Besides, this is just a fairy tale about the killer." Ryan couldn't understand. She had made some changes to the plot, and Mrs. Sheley did not object after watching it. Why did Nicole get so angry?

"Fairy Tale?" Nicole's eyes widened, "The little girl and the killer were sleeping together, and the middle-aged man bathed the girl, God! Ryan, are you peeking at Lolita..."

"Wait!" Ryan's eyes widened, "I didn't write such a plot..."

These are obviously plots in movies in previous life, and even the plot of taking a bath was cancelled under Natalie's strong opposition. But I removed these overly sensitive things. How...

Nicole's movements were quick, and he took out the script from his handbag. Ryan quickly looked through it, and the more he looked, the darker his face became.

The script is not a copy he mailed, but a machine-made version, which adds many plots, and even the relationship between the girl and the killer he had specially modified was changed back. The most excessive thing is that there is a scene where Leon bathed Matilda.

Hell! Ryan cursed and didn't need to ask. He knew that it must be Luc Besson who changed the content of the script without authorization.

Not to mention whether it involves infringement or not, as long as he shakes his head, none of these plots can be realized.

What are these French people thinking? Will they die without those shots in the movie? He knew that if such a movie was filmed, if it was released in North America, it would be likely to be designated as NC-17, which would cause the person who starred in Matilda and the author, as he, to face a huge storm.

"I didn't write this..." Ryan explained to Nicole simply and quickly, and the Australian girl's face looked much better.

But when the two walked out of the bedroom and came to the living room, the look she looked at Luc Besson changed.

Speaking of which, in the years of life shared in this life, Ryan and Nicole Kidman influenced each other, and their personalities changed a lot from their previous lives.

Sitting around the sofa, the atmosphere among the crowd was a little awkward. After drinking coffee, Luc Besson set his eyes on the boy opposite.

He had heard of him, and he had watched "The Sixth Sense" and "The Terminator 2" and was impressed by his performances, especially the strange structure of "The Sixth Sense", which was more to his liking.

Thinking back to the beginning, he was surprised to learn that the script was made by a boy, but he didn't care too much. There were too many geniuses in Jewish people.

Besides, since "The Sixth Sense", the other party has set its target for business, just like most Hollywood film practitioners. Whether it is "Home Imperial", later "Terminator 2" and "Body Guard", etc., they are all completely commercial productions.

Luc Besson is different from most directors in the European continent. He knows that with Hollywood's business operation model, the impact on the European film market will become increasingly greater and greater, and it will completely conquer the European market in a few years.

What about European peers? They will only keep criticizing Hollywood for nothing but business and self-righteousness, but is this useful?

Besides, who are the people who are truly self-righteous? I'm afraid they are those who shoot their own works regardless of the audience's feelings.

He is a very ambitious and courageous person. Since Hollywood movies can be prosperous in the European market, why can't his works enter the North American market? Why can't he enter Hollywood?

If you want to open up the American market, you need a work that suits your own taste and American concepts. Since the filming of "Atlantis", he has been conceiving, but he has never found a suitable creativity.

Until some time ago, his ** actor and friend Jean Renault brought the script "The Killer Leon", which was mixed with several set drafts. It can be seen that Leon used the image of Jean, that little girl...

He looked at Natalie sitting next to Ryan. This was Matilda? She was too young and too thin, and she didn't even have a small bag on her chest, and it was just an airport.

Luc Besson directly rejected Natalie's image. If Ryan knew what he was thinking just now, he would definitely wash his face with hot tea.

Ryan sat quietly aside. As for the negotiations, it would be better to leave them to professional Jinslie. He just kept flipping through the script that was edited by the machine.

After a long time, Nicole pulled him, Ryan smiled apologetically to the other side and said, "Mr. Besson, I can leave the operation of "Killer Leon" to you, and I can also help you match the producers in the United States."

After all, with experience from the previous life, Ryan knew that this guy was not favored by European filmmakers and always wanted to develop in Hollywood.

Luc Besson made a gesture to say something. In addition to being a film director, he was also a businessman, and he was not so stupid that he thought the other person was really a naive boy.

"At that time, there were a few drafts of the setting that were mailed with the script. I don't know if you have read it." Ryan asked.

"Of course, I can see that Leon is based on Jean's image."

"Yes, after watching "Nikita", I was deeply impressed by Mr. Renault." Ryan unconsciously looked at Jean Renault's big nose, and the other party smiled kindly.

He replied with the same bright smile, and this time he looked at Natalie and said, "Two aspects, one is that this script was written for my best friend, Matilda's idea comes from her, and the other is..."

Ryan put the machine-made script on the coffee table, "Remove the plots added inside!"

Luc Besson's face was very bad. The plots changed and added in the script were from him. He was asked by a boy with so many little boys in public, so he would not feel happy. If this script was not really attractive, the other party was almost a box office guarantee in North America, and he really wanted to say goodbye directly.

As if he knew what the other party was thinking, Ryan continued, "Mr. Besson, if I guess correctly, you want to use this movie to open up the American market, right?"

"That's right." This is no secret. Who doesn't know that he wants to enter Hollywood in the European film industry?

"I don't know how you view American audiences. Compared with the current American society, this subject is somewhat sensitive. Maybe in Europe, this Lolita-like relationship will not arouse the audience's disgust, but it is different in North America. The United States is indeed very open, but it is limited to a few coastal states. If the text of the script is turned into a picture, it will cause huge criticism. If the film is rated as NC-17 by the MPAA after the film is completed, it will be done."

"The most touching thing about this story is emotions, but there are many ways to express emotions. The obscure and hazy feelings can sometimes touch people's hearts."

Luc Besson Truffle expressed his thoughtful expression. He was not a person who didn't know how to adapt, but giving up those plots really...

"Don't forget, the one who will participate in the filming will be a girl in her early teens!" In front of Natalie, Ryan had something to say. If Luc Besson really insisted on doing this, then take back the script.

If this movie is missing, he may not fail. There are many film companies in Hollywood waiting to invest in the scripts he created. His past achievements have given him a lot of confidence.

Of course, that's just the last choice. As long as it is possible, keeping the original team is the first choice.

How to choose between ideas and interests? It is not difficult for a director who runs a film company.

What's more, although the other party has some relationship in Hollywood, it will definitely be much more convenient to have Ryan Jenkins and his own people.

"Okay." Luc Besson chose the market.

However, the little character of the Frenchman then emerged, "I hope to have an audition for the role of Matilda in New York."

Now that Ryan's face looks bad, if it weren't for his friend, why would he waste so much saliva with him? If Natalie couldn't star in Matilda, he would rather let the movie disappear forever.

Luc Besson was obviously not a vegetarian. His counterattack was sharp. "I just talked to Miss Natalie and knew that she had a rich acting experience. I think Miss Natalie would not mind taking the audition and getting this role based on her own strength, not because of Ryan Jenkins' good friend."

This is a very obvious way of running and provocation, but Natalie is competitive and has her own pride. Just as Ryan was about to say something, she pulled her arm hard and almost fell on the sofa.

"Ryan..." Natalie looked over, Ryan opened her mouth and finally closed her mouth.

"I agree to the audition." Natalie showed her chin.

Forget it, Ryan shrugged, just pretending it was to protect Natalie's self-esteem. With her acting skills, it would be easy to get this role, right?

Besides, he will find someone himself to be the producer manager.
