Jon Slattery is a man at the top of the industry, a big shot in Hollywood. To be honest, his wealth, status and authority exceed those of the two directors who have appointments with Xu Mi.

Duke dares to argue with him simply because the two of them are in different fields.

A man who specializes in making top-notch popcorn movies. All the projects he handles are super-invested and have a luxurious lineup. If you haven't seen the title of the movie, you will usually hear it. He is a legendary giant in the field of commercial films. He is said to be a humanoid self-propelled money printing machine.

It's not an exaggeration.

The other one specializes in art films. The purpose of making films is to express thoughts. Each plot must have a meaning. Every day, the artist pursues artistic beauty. As long as the box office does not result in a loss, he can accept it. The purpose of making films is to seek resonance and win awards.

Although these two people are both working in Hollywood, they are actually very different from each other.

In short, you are awesome, but others are afraid of you and I am not afraid of you, so how can you still steal my job? You want to take such a good talent to shoot a commercial film that is not only about beating, but also showing off, and in front of my face,

Do you think I, Duke, am dead?!

Seeing his old friend mentioning the holiday between Xu Mi and Thomas Jones regardless of the occasion, Norbert Lett stood up and smoothed things over: "How about we share a table? Let's all sit down and talk."

Sharing a table?

Generally speaking, there is no such practice, but if the big bosses ask for it by name, the restaurant must not be flexible?

The twosomes and threesomes merged into a five-person group. After sitting down, Thomas was not mentioned again. Mr. Slattery’s focus was entirely on Chinese Kung Fu. He himself is not a Kung Fu fan, but around the world

There are quite a few people who are obsessed with this. If this element is used well, it can make a lot of money.

Duke was annoyed to death when Slattery kept talking about Chinese Kung Fu.

"You can't find another kung fu actress in such a big China? Why do you have to fight with her?"

Slattery raised his eyebrows: "This is appreciation, but when it comes to your mouth, it turns out to be overwhelming."

"Making a movie like yours is a waste of her talent. It's ruining people."

Slattery didn't feel offended.

how to say?

It’s no longer a day or two to make diss commercial films from literary and artistic films. If an actor comes from artistic films, wins many awards and becomes famous, and then switches to making commercial films, this group of people will sigh and say that another good talent is on the verge of corruption.

I just hope that after he has made two commercial films, he will still remember how to act and not lose all his aura and just act cool.

This kind of hatred that iron cannot become steel is not new today, but this is the first time he has witnessed it with his own eyes.

And he also played a role in it, which made Slattery interested.

His big bald head was illuminated by the lights of the restaurant. He smiled kindly and said, "I'm so interested. This is the first time I've seen Mr. Duke praise an actor so highly. What level of acting skills is that?"

?”

What level?

One look can make you urinate.

Can this be said?

No, because the movie hasn't been released yet.

"If Mr. Slattery is curious, you might as well take the time to watch the movie starring her."

"Of course I will. I would rather see it face to face. Even if you have such strong opinions on me, Duke, I still have to ask Miss Xu herself. Are you willing to try out the role of the kung fu girl in my movie?"

Slattery looked at Xu Mi.

At the same time, Norberto and Duke also looked at her.

They are all waiting for the lady's answer.

Xu Mi actually didn't think much about it and said with a smile: "I am willing to try various types of movies. Anyone who is interested will want to challenge it."

Duke almost had a heart attack.

Damn you...! Are you so indifferent to me and so kind to him?

Too much.

Even more suffocating than him was Thomas Jones, who couldn't talk to him for a long time. How should I put it? He was not surprised. For actors, Slattery was an irresistible temptation. How many people tried their best to have a relationship with him.

It's rare that he takes the initiative to invite actors to audition for roles. He would be foolish to refuse.

This woman looks very shrewd, how can she be stupid?

Half a year ago, Thomas Jones's biggest wish was to see Dean Martinez die suddenly. The two of them were rivals in resource-constrained Hollywood. Their acting paths overlapped, and if they developed well, they would influence me.

At this moment, he no longer had that person in his mind, it was all filled with Xu Mi, and he hoped that Miss Xu was not so good at fighting, and that just now it was just a blind cat that bumped into a dead mouse.

He is destined to be disappointed.

Xu Mi exchanged contact information with the big producer that night. Slattery was very excited after returning and immediately made a rough change of character. He removed the female assassin who opened the izakaya and replaced it with the proprietress of a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.

.

She usually wears a cheongsam and looks a bit cold and distant. Everyone who knows her thinks she is a good person who is cold on the outside and warm on the inside.

He is the kind of person who can be regarded as a kind person in the hearts of homeless people in this area.

In fact, she is the second-in-command of the villain organization, a woman with super high kung fu, who can beat the protagonist, the muscular man, into a dog...

Slattery imagined the character in his mind and even prepared the cheongsam before contacting Xu Mi to come over and try it out.

When Xu Mi saw that the cheongsam had a high slit and a pair of safety pants to prevent exposure, she knew that the boss lady was a capable person.

She put on her cheongsam and matching new embroidered shoes and walked out. She immediately felt like the proprietress of a time-honored restaurant.

If the shape is concave, you can pass this first level.

Slattery took the person to a dojo-like place nearby and asked her to show her hands.

After Xu Mi showed off Slattery, she even forgot that she was a Hollywood tycoon, and felt like shit! Her show was so beautiful to the naked eye without post-production. If she has the qualifications to make a crappy literary film, she should make an action film.

Go harvest the box office!

Slattery is so satisfied with Xu Mi. Look at her beautiful kung fu, her face, her figure, her temperament, and her box office appeal in Asia!

What a perfect actor.

He is a person who believes in his inner feelings, and now he has one thought in his mind: Use her! Use her boldly! It will definitely have miraculous effects!

Slattery once again extended an invitation to Xu Mi.

This time is not an invitation to audition, but a hope that she can play the core villain in her new movie.

"...Villain?" Xu Mi looked at the sky speechlessly.

Slattery didn't understand what she meant.

She sighed and said, "Excluding you, I have played several roles where the heroine is a criminal. Do I look like a villain?"

This statement successfully made the bald man laugh.

"In many blockbusters, the villains are more charming than the protagonists. Their aboveboard acting style makes many protagonists look the same, while the villains have much more personality."

it's actually really easy.

If it is from the protagonist's camp, it must not steal the spotlight from the protagonist. The character's setting can only have one strength that can be used as a tool to help the male protagonist, but is weaker than the protagonist in other aspects. As a confidante, she even needs to be

Kidnapping gives the hero the space to save the beauty.

The villain is different. The villain is a boss that needs to be fought together as a team. It is equivalent to the ceiling of force value. It is the kind that requires the protagonist to lead his teammates to fight again and again with great difficulty in order to win.

Did your level of prowess suddenly increase?

Did the charm come out immediately?

I finally found out with great difficulty that such an outstanding Miaozi can't let her play a vase and let the protagonist go to save the beauty, right?

I can't let her go back to save the protagonist. The protagonist's character is ruined if he is always saved by a woman.

So no matter how you look at the villain, it’s the only choice.

Xu Mi didn't expect it, she just felt that she was going further and further on this road, so she complained. After the complaint, the person asked some more questions, wanting to know more about the setting of "Justice Hunter".

Slattery told her that the film was planned to be a series of at least three films.

In the first part, the boss lady won’t have many scenes. Only in the second part will the protagonist suspect and investigate her, and reveal her villain identity at the end. If the box office performance is good, the third part will give the boss lady the usual reputation and popularity she has accumulated.

It worked, and no one believed she was a bad person. This revelation not only failed to bring about the expected results, but also put the protagonist in trouble. His own career was at a low point... This is a good trend at the box office. If the box office is good, let it go in the long run. How can there be ups and downs?

Come on, if the box office doesn't work, the third part will have a big showdown.

It’s no wonder that Thomas Jones would fight for it. As long as this kind of series of movies performs well, one can be released every one or two years, because his actors can always be active in the audience’s field of vision, even if other movies shot during the period fail.

, can rely on the series to make a comeback.

And it's relatively easy to make a series.

Because the character design is always the same, as long as the basics are laid in the first film, you can film it later when you join the team, and there is no need to study the character again.

Xu Mi took both pros and cons into consideration.

The flip side is that if there are too many parts, you may make you vomit, but according to Mr. Slattery, you should sign up for three parts at first. He described the plots of these three parts as being okay. If it doesn't work later, it's a big deal and it won't be continued.

From the appearance of this character, to the exposure of identity, to the decisive battle.

There are levels and progression.
To be continued...
