Lina swam around in the bath, and when she got ashore, she saw Simon hooking her hand. She smiled and took the towel handed by the maid to dry her body while walking over. Men don't like the feeling of being wet, and, from here With the exaggerated freshwater bath beside it, Lina probably judged that someone doesn't like swimming in seawater either.

On both sides of Simon, Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears, who were each holding a manuscript of a novel called "The Man" with gusto, pretended not to see her approaching and refused to move away. Lena crawled directly from the man's feet. Go up, reach the position of the man's chest, turn around again, look at the information in Simon's hand: "Simon, what are you looking at?"

Christina and Britney belonged to the petite type, only about 1.5 meters tall, and Lena was actually about the same, only 163 centimeters. Simon held it in his arms easily, and showed the girl the file in his hand: "A director's profile."

Lena also saw the information on the file at this time.

Paul Greenglass.

never heard of that.

However, Lina's eyes lit up in the blink of an eye.

The information about a director I have never heard of has fallen into the hands of Simon Westeros. After a little thought, I can understand what it means.As a Hollywood agent, this is her chance!

Chapter 1189

Lina was thinking about how to speak, when a man behind him said with a smile: "What are you thinking about, your heart is beating so fast?"

She turned her head to find Simon's cheek and kissed him flatteringly. Lena simply untied the swimsuit that hindered the man's touch and threw it aside. Then she said, "Simon, I've never heard of this director. He shouldn't be famous, right?"

"Yes."

"Then, do you think I can recruit him as my client?"

"Are you going to be Paul's assistant?"

"No, being an assistant to Amy and Jesse is only temporary. I was originally a WMA trainee, and I will soon become an official manager."

Hearing Lena say this all of a sudden, Jessica Chastain, who had already negotiated privately and was delayed a little because of this unexpected weekend, didn't notice anything, but Amy Adams was a little surprised, and couldn't help but look up from a distance come over.

Simon lowered his head and looked at the round-faced girl in his arms with a figure and skin that he couldn't put it down, and said, "Do you like being an agent very much, or, how about being a star?"

Even Jessica pricked up her ears this time.

A certain person said yesterday morning that she didn't want to be a star, let's see how she answers now.

Lina shook her head without any hesitation: "No, I still think the agent is good, and this is just the beginning of the career I planned for myself, and I won't be an agent forever in the future."

Simon looked very interested: "Tell me carefully?"

Lina said clearly: "I am 23 years old, and I hope to spend 5 to 7 years as an agent to bring out a group of big names, build my own network, and be familiar with all aspects of Hollywood film and television production. Then, at most 30 At the age of 40, I hope to enter a major studio in Hollywood and seek a vice president level executive in charge of film and television production. Then, at the age of [-], I hope to become a big producer like Amy Pascal and Shirley Lansing. Studio head."

Simon smiled and said, "What if it doesn't come true?"

Lina turned over and fell on the man unconsciously, and met Simon's eyes: "Then there is no way, it only means that I am unlucky, but it does not mean that I did not work hard."

"That's right," Simon nodded in approval, thought for a while, and asked, "Have you ever been to college?"

"I graduated from Film and Media Studies at USC School of Film. I only got 3 B's and 1 C in my four years of college, and all the others were A's."

Simon was a little surprised. He thought that the two girls who were assistants to Amy were from similar backgrounds. If that was the case, he would just laugh at what Lena said just now, and at most help a little.At this time, I really didn't expect it, and I didn't suspect that the girl in my arms was lying. After all, it was too easy to verify, so I said again: "It seems that you have already planned your life before college."

"Yes."

"Then why come here to be assistants to Amy and the others?"

Lina leaned forward with crooked eyebrows and kissed the man's lips: "Isn't this the answer?"

Simon also reacted, smiled and hugged the girl and made out for a while, before touching the folder that was just thrown on Britney next to him: "In this case, I don't bother, this, Paul Greengrass, just be It's a test for you."

Lena turned over again and leaned into the man's arms, took the folder and opened it, asking, "Simon, what do I need to do?"

"You read the information first."

Lina nodded, and leaned into the man's arms to browse carefully and quickly.

First of all, it was discovered that the 42-year-old Paul Greengrass in the information was also a top student and graduated from Cambridge University.At first he worked as a reporter, and also published a book exposing the MI80 scandal. Later, he entered the TV field and began to shoot documentaries and TV series. At the end of the [-]s, he started to dabble in movies.

From some film and television projects completed by the other party, Lena judged that Paul Greengrass is good at documentary films adapted from real events, but it is in the same line as the other party's reporter.

Documentary theme?

The mind is focused here, and Lena suddenly thinks of Amy and Jessica participating in the movie that is being screened.

It's a movie, but if you leave out the fictional elements, it's also a very documentary story.

Look at this director again.

Even if it is not a newcomer like Lin Yibin, but he is still in his early years at the age of 42, basically the same.

What's more, if you are good at documentary themes, your image style should also be biased towards this, so it is perfect for shooting pseudo-documentary films with 'documentary themes'.

In the end, Lena also knew that the sequel project of the movie has already been approved, and Jessica, who is about to be acquired, will be the heroine. As for Daenerys Entertainment, because of the importance they attach to Justin Lin, they obviously don't want him to accept the procedure again. So, does it mean that Paul Greengrass is Simon's chosen director for the sequel?

It has to be said that if Simon knew the thinking of the girl in his arms, even if the other party failed to guess the truth, he would be surprised.

Because the direction is right.

After a while, after flipping through the documents in her hand, Lena raised her head again and looked at the man behind her: "Simon, I think there is something wrong."

"Ok?"

"The directors cultivated by Daenerys Entertainment for several years, Michael Bay, Doug Liman, and recently Justin Lin, they are all young, aren't they?"

"correct."

"And this one," Lina raised the information in her hand: "Although he graduated from college, he has been in the film and television industry for more than ten years, and he hasn't made his name yet. Don't you think he might be mediocre? ?"

"..."

"Simon?"

"You're right, I'm thinking about how to refute it."

"Hehe," Lena also imitated Simon's appearance and threw the folder on Britney next to her. Although these girls didn't make room for themselves just now, they turned themselves over like an fried egg and fell on the man. : "Simon, as long as you think it's okay, you don't need to explain to me, you just need to tell me what to do?"

"This one," Simon grabbed the girl's little hand, counted and pulled out three fingers, and the fourth finger was halfway out, and said, "Probably, in the first stage, Paul has three and a half months, now, let me test you." , why only three and a half months?"

Exam questions?

The three pairs of girls around who were silently envious and jealous because of Lina's cuteness were all thinking.

Although the facts were a bit inconsistent with what she had imagined, Lena straightened it out quickly, and smiled at the man in front of her as if she could hear the voices of the girls around her: "Simon, why don't you give Amy and the others a chance, I'll say it too soon." Come out, it may make you lose face."

"..."

Bitchi!

Simon was kind, and said to both sides with a smile: "Whoever answers first will give a heroine."

The girls suddenly became more energetic.

Britney next to her was still pretending to be pitiful, she no longer held the bag in her hand, and imitated Lena and posted it coquettishly: "Simon, what did you ask about three and a half months ago, tell me again?"

When Britney asked, Vanessa and Amy among the six girls expressed their expectations, obviously hoping that Simon would say something more.

Unfortunately no response.

I can only quickly recall the details of the man's words just now, racking my brains.

After a while, Jessica finally said, "Simon, in three and a half months, it will be the Sundance Film Festival in mid-January next year, right?"

"Bingo!"

Amy, who was leaning against Jessica, yelled angrily: "Sundance, ah, why didn't I think of it, I should have thought of it."

The other girls also looked depressed.

How could I never think of such a simple thing, three and a half months, push the time back three and a half months, think about what important things happened in Hollywood during that time, and I soon understood.

Really, it makes people regret to want to go crazy.

Lena also glanced at Jessica, and she did not disappoint herself.

If it was another girl, she wouldn't say much. Since it was Jessica, Lena didn't want to be fooled by the man, so she asked softly, "Simon, do you really want a reward now?"

"Of course, I don't have the habit of breaking my promise."

As Simon said, he was pretending to think about it, but Lena couldn't help but said again: "It doesn't count, and you just said the protagonist."

"It seems that you and Jessica have a very good relationship," Simon joked, and motioned to the folder that Britney picked up and put aside: "It's there, I plan to let Paul Greengrass do two The first film, the heroine of the second one, I will leave it to Jesse."

The other girls are envious.

Lina knew that she was a little eager just now, and this time she didn't get to the bottom of it, but said, "So, Simon, let's go on for three and a half months, what will Paul Greengrass do?"

"Daenerys Entertainment's second mockumentary film, presumably about a teenage expedition to find a witch, the script is still being finalized. Your task is to find Paul Greengrass and convince him to join the project as director .And, you only have a maximum of three and a half months, because I want this film to go to Sundance.”

Finding witches, of course.

This was a temporary idea that Simon had after reading Paul Greengrass' information, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.

Paul Greengrass first worked as a reporter, and then, from the early 80s, he began to enter the TV industry to do TV dramas and documentaries. After so many years, his personal influence style can be imagined. Not only is it suitable, but it is more suitable for those who pursue pseudo-documentary effects.

Simon, on the other hand, actually needs to prove it.

As Lena said, the 42-year-old is not in his early years, even if it is only because he has not encountered a suitable opportunity in the past, but Simon also hopes to show the other party a project for himself. Other people must also be convinced, such as Westinghouse, the investor, and Jerry Bruckheimer.

After all, your budget is 7000 million, not 700 million.

Let’s make it first, not to mention the box office, whether the film itself is good or not, and whether it suits the style of Hollywood, everyone can actually tell.

If you give it to the other party, it will be a lot more logical.

Lena, who was leaning on Simon, was also thinking about it.

Since Daenerys Entertainment's script is already being perfected, as long as I can get Paul Greengrass done, three and a half months is more than enough time. After all, although the original filming took two months to complete, it was mainly Lin Yibin and the couple. This is the reason why the main creators are meticulously crafted to pursue the ultimate.

According to Lina's judgment, if it is not for the pursuit of excellence, it can even be completed within ten days.

Of course, Lena would not be so stupid as to let Paul Greengrass rush to work in the future.

Calculate carefully.

Today, October 10th, Paul Greengrass will be settled, and then the script will be perfected and the crew will be formed. If everything goes well, it will be completed within a month.

Then, the filming started in early November, a pseudo-documentary, this time a little compressed, given a month and a half, about 11 days, which is actually enough, and there is one month left for post-production, which is also more than enough.Even, when the time comes, even if the Sundance Film Festival starts, there will still be some time left.

It is probably because this side registers first, and the second half of Sundance, which postpones the reaction period, can have at least another week.

Many big directors have actually done this kind of thing. Sometimes they participate in film festivals, and others have already opened. Here, the film has not been fully completed, so it can only be dragged on. There are even cases where semi-finished films are directly screened.

After sorting it out like this, Lina agreed, and finally asked something she was more curious about: "So, Simon, what about the second project?"

"The second project." Simon smiled, hugged the girl a little tighter in his arms, and said, "Let's not talk about this, but let me reveal that the leading actor is probably Harrison Ford."

Christina Aguilera exclaimed, "Wow, Han Solo."

Simon knocked on the girl's forehead, then glanced at Jessica, who had been leaning forward and looked over: "Are you satisfied?"

Jessica nodded shyly.

"In this case, go, go to the swimming pool with Amy, and show me the water lotus."

Of course Jessica knew what kind of beauty a man wanted to see.

It's probably the kind of lily that bloomed at night last night.

After all, it was daytime, so I was somewhat shy, but looking around, although I knew that there were actually many people in the manor, but looking around, there was nothing but a few maids nearby.

Think again about what a man gives himself.

The heroine who plays with Harrison Ford, how many actresses in Hollywood dream of.

So get up quickly.

Amy was somewhat reluctant to be picked up by Jessica.

I didn't get the heroine again.

However, just think about it.

Still honestly being picked up by Jessica, they walked to the swimming pool together.

Simon called the waitress not far away to bring a pillow to raise his body, put his arms around Lena and looked at the pool view, while patting the head of Christina next to him, he asked with a smile, "Are you hungry?"

Christina wanted to say that she was not hungry.

However, he immediately reacted, pretending to shrink his head pitifully: "Hungry."

Simon pushed the girl down: "Eat when you're hungry."

Christina got up obediently, without any expectations, and said coquettishly: "Simon, then, do I have a heroine?"
