Now Simon doesn't have to explain his intention to others all the time. When he heard Marvin Josephson's question, he shook his head and said, "Marvin, I don't want to waste time on this kind of question. You and Julia can think about it and give me a reply tomorrow morning. So, any other questions? "

Courtney Cox waited in the lounge for less than ten minutes, and Simon's office door opened again. Seeing off Marvin Josephson and Julia Roberts, Simon beckons Courtney in.

After turning to his desk and sitting down, Simon opened a budget document for scream and said to Courtney opposite, "Courtney, I've seen your audition video. It's very suitable for you to play the heroine of scream. However, this film will not help you much in your acting career. On the contrary, it will label you as a young star, and it will be difficult to transform in the future. "

Courtney naturally took Simon's words as a refusal, biting her lips dimly, and whispered, "Simon, you still hate me for rejecting you, don't you?"

Simon was stunned. He looked up at Courtney and shook his head. "Courtney, I've been through so many things. Your refusal can't make me hate. I'm just talking about the matter."

"So, can I get the heroine of scream?" Courtney Cox stares at Simon and says, "I don't care about the impact on the show business. Simon, my show business is It's not as smooth as Sandra Bullock. "

"Well, Kurt, if you insist. However, "scream" is actually a series. You need to sign three contracts

Courtney Cox said without hesitation, "no problem."

Simon put down the pencil he had just picked up, got up and said, "in that case, you can go back first. I'll get someone to contact Jonathan."

Courtney Cox didn't expect things to go so well, but she was not happy at all, and even faintly felt that she might have missed something. Watching Simon reach out to her across the desk, Courtney hesitates and stands up, but turns behind the desk and embraces the man with open arms.

Simon felt Courtney stick to himself, reached out and patted her on the waist, and said, "it's time for you to go, Courtney."

Courtney Cox clasped Simon's hand and said, "Simon, I can come to you tonight."

Simon chuckled and shook his head. "It's impossible. I don't want to make headlines tomorrow."

"Well," Courtney Cox said, looking around and in a lower voice, "it's OK here."

Simon remembered as like as two peas of Julia's Roberts left, he almost caught the same hint. Courteney grabbed Courteney's hand and touched his belt. He added, "Kurt, you should go."

What else did Courtney Cox have to say? When the door of the office was knocked, she reluctantly went back to the other side of the desk, took out a business card from her satchel and handed it to her, saying, "Simon, you can call me at any time."

Simon knew that Amy and Jennifer were the only people who could knock on the door without Susan's notice. He took Courtney's business card and answered the door casually. She pushed the door with a folder and came in. When she saw Courtney, she was obviously surprised, but she nodded politely to her and said to Simon, "boss, I'll come back later."

"No, Curt is leaving."

When she heard that, Courtney Cox had to take the initiative to leave.

Simon watched Courtney leave. Then he sat down again and looked at the assistant, "what's the matter?"

"Dad and the digital effects company in Toronto have agreed on the acquisition plan, and just sent the information," said Jennifer. She handed the folder over and waited for Simon to open it. After a little pause, she said, "Susan is not outside. I heard the guest just left and thought you were the only one."

Simon raised his eyes and noticed the female assistant peeking at her small expression as she said. He said with a smile, "it's a good thing that you've ruined. Do you want to make it up to me?"

"No way."

Simon opened the file and said, "then don't be guilty."

Jennifer also feels that something is wrong. Women are very sensitive to certain things. She noticed the difference between Simon and Courtney as soon as she came in.

It's just that.

I really shouldn't feel guilty. It's a bad guy who should feel guilty. So I summoned up the courage to condemn him and said, "it's you who did something bad. I, I will tell Jennie."

Simon didn't seem to hear the threat from Jennifer. He suddenly looked at the document in front of him and asked, "what's wrong? How could it be this company?"

Hearing this, Jennifer walked into Simon's desk, leaned forward, looked slightly at the document, and said, "this is alias research. How can we make a mistake?"

Simon waited for Jennifer to come over, suddenly raised his hand to hook the female assistant's delicate chin and gave her a kiss on the lip.

When Simon caught her chin, her body suddenly froze. She just glared at her eyes and passively responded to the man's kiss. Only when Simon sat back in the chair did she react. She stepped back and blushed and threatened again: "you, I'll tell Jennie."Simon continued to ignore the threat of no lethality from Jennifer. Instead, he said with a smile, "Jennie, help me figure out how to take you home tonight without being discovered by outsiders. I think there's a reward."

"I'm not going home with you," she refused, suppressing her desire to escape

"Or shall I go to you?"

"My uncle will beat you out."

"Well, suddenly I feel so miserable."

"Playboy."

After a few words, Simon focused on the document in front of him.

Alias research company is a digital special effects software company in Toronto, Canada. It was founded in 1983. At present, it has developed a film and television software named alias.

No longer all his hopes are pinned on the acquisition of Pixar. During this period, Simon has taken a fancy to two companies through the introduction of Silicon Graphics, and another company named wavefront technologies has also completed the acquisition plan.

Both companies use silicon graphics workstation as hardware platform. Alias software of alias research company is mainly used for the later development of live action movies, while products of wavefront technologies company tend to be 3D animation. In Simon's opinion, the effect that the two companies' software can achieve is still very rough, but not much worse than Pixar's. In fact, Pixar's current technology is also very crude.

Simon chose these two companies from the materials provided by silicon map company because he just remembers that the software of these two companies, especially alias of alias research company, participated in the production of a series of special effects blockbusters such as Terminator 2, Jurassic Park and independence day in the original time and space.

In the late 1990s, the two companies were acquired one after another. After integration, their software eventually developed into a 3D animation software, Maya, which was very popular in 3D animation, CG special effects and video game industry.

Now that he has won the two companies, Simon's next task is to advance the development of Maya software.

In fact, although the current computer is still very backward compared with the later computing power, it is enough to achieve a lot of CG effects on these hardware platforms.

The main reason why the development of digital special effects began to accelerate in the 1990s is due to the limitation of funds. Many special effects software and special effects companies are constantly improving in one project after another. Simon is not short of money now, and Denise pictures can provide enough film projects.

Therefore, Simon is fully capable of promoting the development of digital effects in advance, and the memory of the next 30 years can ensure that he does not have to go too far in this process.

Today is March 11, and Friday, when Harry meets Sally officially opens a small-scale screening in major cities in North America.

In the afternoon on the west coast, it was already dusk on the east coast.

Janet has been busy with the renovation of her apartment all day. In the evening, she meets Katherine and they make an appointment to watch the screening of when Harry meets Sally tonight. "Thunderbolt Blue Angel" has also begun preparations, the film will be shot in New York, Catherine also came to Manhattan during this time.

The two women had dinner together. It was more than seven o'clock.

When I got to a movie theater in midtown Manhattan showing when Harry Met Sally, I had only five minutes to go before the movie started. Entering the screening hall, the hall, which can hold more than 200 people, is almost full. Janet and Catherine only find two vacancies on the side.

"I picked out the script first. Simon also liked it very much and personally participated in the soundtrack. Unfortunately, I didn't see the film in advance when I was in Los Angeles." after sitting down, Janet held a bucket of popcorn and looked around at the crowd. She said with satisfaction, "it seems that the attendance is not bad."

Katherine looked at the preview on the big screen and said, "the attendance rate of the screening must be very high. A large part of the audience tonight are media reporters and film critics. The key is to see the results of the large-scale opening two weeks later."

The two chatted casually, and the movie began soon.

On the big screen, after the studio's brand animation and subtitle titles, the first couple to appear in front of the audience is an old couple recalling the past. This kind of opening makes almost all the audience stunned. Some people even doubt whether they went to the wrong screening hall, or the film projectionist took the wrong copy.

Even Janet and Catherine looked at each other. Janet had seen the script at first, but the version she had seen didn't have these plots.

Although very confused, the crowd soon calmed down.

The brand animation and subtitle titles at the beginning of the film prove that there are no low-level mistakes such as wrong copy in the cinema.

To confirm this, a lot of media reporters and film critics at the scene subconsciously lowered their evaluation of the film to a new level. This kind of alternative but not bright opening will definitely make many audiences lose interest, especially the young audience during Easter.After a different start, Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan appear on camera.

On the campus of the University of Chicago, Harry and his girlfriend say goodbye. Sally appears in a car. This is the first time they meet. They make an appointment to go to New York by car. During the 18 hour journey, through a series of witty conversations, Harry and Sally's distinct personalities come to the screen.

Harry is a pessimist at heart, funny, casual and cynical. Sally is a standard optimist, pursuing exquisite life.

The opening ten minutes, accompanied by nostalgic old jazz, seemingly plain plot, but unconsciously let the audience in the screening hall immerse in it. Another old couple appeared in the camera, many people no longer feel abrupt.

As time goes by, it is five years later.

Harry is getting married and Sally is in love with her boyfriend. The short meeting in the business trip is still not pleasant. However, due to the increase of life experience, Harry and Sally began to change some of their views when they just walked out of the campus, and even stopped admitting that they had said something.

Years of silence, circulation between five years again quietly away.

Harry and Sally both ended their last relationship and started their single life again.

In the autumn of New York, the scene of yellow leaves falling in Central Park has an ineffable beauty, just like the last moment of life. On a sunny afternoon, wandering in this intoxicating wandering, the men and women who think they have gone out of their last relationship decide to try a pure friendship that does not involve the love between men and women.

This friendship developed very smoothly. In order to get each other out of the single state, they also tried to introduce their best same-sex friends Jesse and Mary to each other.

Then.

Jesse and Mary, however, sparked and began to get married.

I sincerely send my best wishes to my friends. In the process of preparing for Jesse's and Mary's wedding, Harry and Sally unexpectedly break through the original agreement of only being friends. As a matter of course, they go to bed. Because neither of them had any psychological preparation, misunderstanding and cold war inevitably appeared after breaking through this boundary.

Parallel line general spent some time, new year's Eve, aware of their feelings for Sally Harry finally made a decision.

"I love you when you're 71 degrees Fahrenheit. I love you when you spend half an hour ordering a sandwich. I love the wrinkles on your nose when you look at me like a fool. I love you when you stay with me for a whole day, I can still smell your fragrance on my clothes. I love you as the last person I want to talk to before I go to bed every night. It's not because of loneliness It's not because it's new year's Eve. I'm here just because when you realize that you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, you want that life to start early. "

Confession.

Kiss.

On the sofa where the old ladies were interviewed, they began to talk about their experiences, their wedding, and the inevitable differences.

But it's not.

This is life, this is love.

When the subtitles are accompanied by the classic song let's call the whole thing off, most of the audience are still immersed in the aftertaste of the story. It seems that they have just experienced a dream that lasted for 12 years and 3 months. When they wake up, life will continue.

Looking at most of the coke and popcorn left in their hands, some audiences just smile and shake their heads. They realize that when Harry meets Sally is more suitable for a leisurely weekend night, making a cup of coffee and cuddling with his lover on the sofa.

Janet had this feeling in her heart right now.

At the end of the movie, Janet takes Katherine, a little crazy, straight to the airport, and returns to Los Angeles in the night on the west coast.
