"I took the time to watch some youth movies on the weekend. Frankly, there is nothing that can make my eyes shine. Maybe I don't watch enough, but I don't have more time. So, Denny, I'll come by myself. Have you seen Bill Murray's Groundhog Day a few years ago?"

In the conference room, Denny Morris, President of new world pictures, nodded: "of course."

Simon then said: "we can make a youth horror film similar to groundhog day. A girl is chased by a perverted murderer. Every time she dies, she will return to the morning of that day. Finally, in order to get rid of this cycle, she has to find out the murderer."

After listening to Simon's general idea of happy Deathday, Denny Morris has to admire his boss's idea.

This is a very simple idea, not even an innovation. It just applies the classic story structure of Groundhog Day to the horror film of youth. However, it is undeniable that it is absolutely full of gimmicks.

Because no one did it.

As for whether anyone has thought of it, the probability may be very high.

After all, there is no lack of creativity in Hollywood. The problem lies in which movies Hollywood makes. The decision-making power is limited to a few people at the top of the pyramid. After all, these people have limited time and energy, and even have their own personal preferences and prejudices. Therefore, most of the creativity can not be realized.

Simon finished thinking and spent about 10 minutes discussing some details with Denny Morris according to the plot of happy deathbed in his memory. Then he said, "second, this is a spoof youth film planning. Take our original" scream "as the template, plus some popular horror films in recent years, as well as hot current affairs topics, find a group of people Handsome men and beautiful women, do a step similar to the original "anti fight Eagle" as a spoof movie

This is, of course, jingshengjianxiao.

Denny Morris immediately understood the production idea of "scream" when he heard "anti Eagle", but he hesitated this time: "Simon," scream "is one of our hands. Well, according to what you often use, is it appropriate to make a spoof of the top IP?"

Simon said with a smile: "Denny, a little more self mockery. Besides, it's going to be a hodgepodge popcorn movie that people will forget when they see it. We're not going to develop a sequel to scream in the near future. It's no problem."

Since his boss said that, naturally, Denny Morris has no problem.

So it was a detailed discussion.

After finishing these two projects, Simon added: "there is another one, I just gave Tom the responsibility of" song and dance youth ". In fact, it is also a youth film, but because it is a very healthy grade g, new world film industry is not suitable, but this does not mean that new world film industry can not make song and dance films, and it can be made into grade r completely." six heroes of the pig "is a good template Do you want to spread out for yourself first

Denny Morris thought a little bit, "Simon, you mean, make a real stripper movie?"

"That's right." Simon said: "this should not be a youth film. It's mainly for young women, so we must find some young and handsome actors. The story template is the 20-year-old version of the six heroes of the pig."

Simon is talking about magic Mike in his memory this time.

Steven Soderberg directed Chanin Tatum starred in the male dancer type film, which once won more than 160 million US dollars in the global box office at a low cost of 7 million US dollars, and the plot is roughly a young version of "six heroes of the pig", and even another translation is called "six heroes of the pig".

After listening to the details of his boss, Denny Morris couldn't help saying, "Simon, this reminds me of Paul van Hoven's" showgirl ". I don't think it's a good idea?"

"I don't think the story itself is creative," Simon said. "So, it's an experimental project, with a budget of no more than $10 million, scheduled for January, February or September. Besides, does Steven Soderberg remember? "

"Of course, sex, lies and videos."

Simon, the big butterfly, has completely changed the pattern of Hollywood. Under the big pattern, Steven Soderberg, the golden boy of Hollywood, who once won the Golden Palm because of sex, lies and video, did not win the top honor of Cannes any more, but was sniped by Tiantang cinema at that time.

However, the subsequent "sex, lies and video" still made a considerable profit at the box office, which made Steven Soderberg popular in Hollywood. Unfortunately, under such a starting point, several films directed by Soderberg in recent years all ended in failure, becoming a flash in the pan in the eyes of many people.

Simon certainly won't forget.

In fact, after sex, lies and videotape, Soderberg also remained silent for the whole 1990s. In the new century, Soderberg accumulated a lot of experience, and continuously launched a large number of popular and popular films, such as never compromise, drug network, Rohan eleven, and later magic Mike, which has remained in the forefront of Hollywood for a long time.

Simon saw that Denny Morris also remembered "sex, lies and video", so he didn't need more explanation. He said: "I think this project, well, it's called" magic Mike ". The choice of director is more important than the actor. He needs a guy who is good at shooting men. I don't think everyone will deny the original" sex, lies and video ". Soderberg put Jan MS spade is very attractive"Simon, I agree with that, but Soderberg seems to be better at art."

"That's one of the reasons why I chose him. You know, in my opinion, the reason why Paul van Hoven's" showgirl "failed completely is that the film had no connotation at all and only succumbed to the most superficial desire. Of course, I don't want this magic Mike to have too much content. What I want is the screams of young girls in the cinema. However, everyone will have their own style. Even if we completely define this film as a commercial film, Steven Soderberg will instinctively add some artistic style to it because of his personal style. This is very important. It's like an ice cream wrapped with a layer of chocolate, which will make people more aftertaste. Do you understand? "

Of course, Denny Morris understands, and knows more about it. There's another key reason why he chose Soderberg: cheap. In fact, Hollywood has no shortage of other directors who are more good at shooting men, but their bosses have said that this is an experimental project, and the cost should be reduced to less than 10 million dollars, so Steven Soderberg is really suitable.

"In that case, Simon, I'll contact Soderberg as soon as possible." Denny Morris said and remembered, "and, boss, do you have any suggestions for actors?"

Simon thought of Matthew McConnell, who had been suppressed intentionally or unconsciously.

Over the years, the characters in "killing time" and "beyond time contact", which should have made Matthew McConnell famous in Hollywood, have been given to others by Simon.

It's not intentional. Simon doesn't have the heart to target any small Hollywood characters. If he does, there won't be such a person in Hollywood at all. It's just that Simon doesn't think it's suitable. Neither the lawyer in "killing time" nor the pastor in "beyond time contact" is compatible with Matthew McConnell.

As for why McConnell was able to get these roles, Simon is not surprised, but he has no interest in men.

This time it fits.

Matthew McConnell happens to be an actor in the original magic Mike, but only a supporting role.

Today's McConnell is only 28 years old and can be regarded as a small fresh meat category. The prodigal son image that naturally attracts women is even better. So he said, "male master, let Matthew McConnell have a try. As for the rest, you can choose by yourself. Right, the screenwriter can also let Soderberg do it."

Denny Morris wrote it down one by one.

Simon and Maurice talked about some details again. It's 11:30, and he will go back to domay point manor to have dinner with his family at noon, so he won't continue.

They left the meeting room, and girl a came up to meet them.

"Boss, the publishing department has jointly made the publicity plan of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone with Tinkerbell. Do you see it now?"

In the first half of this year, Simon took out the novel Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone, which had been written by others. During this period, Simon had read it, and the details were different from what he had. This is inevitable. The biggest change is that Simon changed the background of the story from London to New York. This time, nine and three quarters of the platforms are no longer located at King's Cross station in London, It's central station in New York.

Although the details have changed a lot, the main line has not changed, and all the characters are there. During this period, we have had a small-scale trial reading, and the response is good.

Just as tincobail recently launched the ipad-10, Simon arranged for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone to be promoted as the first novel to be released online and offline at the same time.

It would be a good publicity stunt.

The first one to eat crabs, coupled with the ipad-10's global super high popularity, can directly achieve the publicity effect of tens of millions of dollars.

In terms of details, online is naturally in the charge of Tinkerbell, while offline is done by Denise herself.

At the beginning of the acquisition of MCA, a book publishing company named Putman was also included in the asset list. In recent years, it has developed very well by publishing books related to danielis entertainment and selling movies.

The reason why girl a released Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone ahead of schedule at this time was that she even had a strange pseudonym of J.K., but the novel was still a creative idea provided by her boss, and was treated with caution.

Simon took out the Harry Potter series because he thought it was a pity that it was lost by a butterfly. Of course, he hoped that the novel could be done again. After listening to girl a, he took it directly and turned it over from the studio to the manor.

Girl a handed the folder to her boss and said, "besides, Mr. Michael Jordan wants to have lunch with you before the" public enemy "meeting in the afternoon. I pushed it out."

Simon opened his data as he walked, only nodded slightly to show that he knew.

Girl a goes on to talk about other things. She has been following her boss downstairs, but she doesn't go on. She still lives in the domay point manor, but she won't go with her lunch.
