Lan Li had some accidents, not by Roy's work, but by Andy's work.

This is the first time that Lan Li has seen so many scripts, and they are all commercial blockbuster scripts. Among them, there are many well-known works, not to mention the quality or whether they can be performed. Lan Li also clearly knows this. It's just a test of intention, let alone the acting, there is still some distance from the audition; but nevertheless, Lan Li still reveals an accident.

This is the first time that Lan Li has truly felt the ability of Andy, and the ability of the innovative artist agency behind Andy.

As the largest brokerage company in Hollywood today, their connections and resources are unquestionable; and thanks to the internal resource sharing model of the company, to put it simply, the resources that Harrison-Ford can get, Lan Li can also get it. Yes, new actors can also be treated as top actors. The only difference is whether the agent is willing to fight for the actors. Of course, the more important thing is whether the producers are willing to give opportunities.

However, before that, the works that Lan Li starred in were mainly works of art, and the only "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion 5" came across by chance. The commercial work that really took the initiative to find Lan Li, in fact, is only "Thor".

It can be seen from this that there is still a very obvious gap between brokers and no brokers, top brokers and general brokers. Those top resources are always concentrated in the hands of these minority elite brokers.

There are nine scripts in total. Coincidentally, all of these nine works have been seen in Lan Li's last life, and they are all mainstream works. Because of this, Lan Li is more and more marveled at Andy's work. He should reward Andy with a chicken leg.

"Before Andy gave me a total of six scripts, and the other three were given to me later. However, the Warner Bros. project never appeared. Andy should still be talking with them." Roy explained briefly. In the end, "There are two independent film companies for these scripts, "Loop Messenger" and "Oath". The others are all six."

For actors, who is the company they work with is not the most important thing. In the final analysis, the script, director, and crew members are more important. After all, they basically do not deal with the staff of the film company, and there is no intersection between the two parties. At least, before reaching the level of Johnny Depp and Tom Hanks.

Lan Li nodded and flipped through the script, "You introduce it." In front of other people, Lan Li naturally couldn't show the posture of "I have seen this movie and I already understand the script", while flipping casually. While reading the script, he showed a listening attitude. In fact, he was more curious about Roy's views on these scripts than the scripts themselves.

Roy sat on the sofa casually, but his back was straight, and the details could be seen. His concentration and devotion at this time saw Lan Li first open the stack of scripts he shot. The first one It is "Snow White and the Hunter".

After sorting out his thoughts, Roy said directly, obviously with a gap in his chest, "This script is adapted from the original fairy tale, but there is no part worth looking forward to. The so-called adaptation is not painful or itchy, and the darkness is not obvious. The important thing is that the role itself is too bad, and I don’t see any potential for development. I don’t know how they will choose the role, but obviously, the hunter is not the first protagonist. To play a male vase in an idol script? I don’t think. This is for you."

The eloquent comments come at hand. Art is inherently a private matter. Some people like it and others hate it. This is inevitable. The same goes for scripts and movies. Roy expressed his own remarks so directly, in fact, this is a manifestation of self-confidence.

"I don't know why Andy was taken over by this script. I don't know if he took Chris Hemsworth's script by mistake." Roy was quick to say, the comment was finished in a few words, and finally he complained. Andy, and ridiculed Chris by the way.

But Lan Li raised his head and glanced at Roy: Because of the previous life, it was Chris Hemsworth who eventually took over the role.

He does not mean that. Roy didn't know, so he met Lan Li's puzzled sight, "What's wrong? Are you interested in a script adapted from a fairy tale?"

Lan Li put the script aside and had no interest in "Snow White and the Hunter". What's more, scandals continued in the last life of this work. First, it revealed the engaged Kristen Stewart and the married director Rupert. -Rupert-sanders stole/fishy, ​​and then the US$170 million investment only resulted in less than 400 million box office worldwide, which was a small loss.

As for quality, Lanly takes Roy's opinion deeply.

When Universal Pictures decided to shoot a sequel, everyone fell through their glasses. Sure enough, the sequel suffered even more verbal criticism and internal injuries at a loss.

Thoughts belonged to thoughts, but Lan Li's mouth showed no traces, and said half-jokingly, "It's like every girl has the dream of Cinderella in her heart. How can a man reject the title of Prince Charming?"

"Perhaps there is one in front of me." Roy's gaze was a little heavy, and there was a sense of certainty in the depths of his eyes. This time, Lan Li did not answer, but just smiled. Then Roy saw Lan Li pick up the next script, "This is a purely romantic movie, adapted from a real story in reality, but I think it’s better than It's much worse to start a'Lianlian Notebook'."

"Oath", the script in Lan Li's hand had not had time to open, hearing Roy's outspoken words, could not help but laughed, "Are you instinctively/instinctively repelling romantic movies? Is it because your ex forced you to watch too much Don Nicholas-Sparks (-sparks)?"

Nicholas Sparks is nicknamed "American Qiong Yao" by the domestic nickname. He specializes in writing about love. His three-handed writing about car accidents, terminal illnesses, and first love is so proficient. Almost all of them have been adapted into movies. The most famous one is "Lianlian Notebook".

Roy shrugged and said non-committal, "I just think that you have made such an outstanding love movie as "Love Is Crazy", and you need to be more careful when choosing a love story."

Later, watching Lan Li pick up the "Perfect Pitch" script, Roy simply explained, "This is a music film dominated by girls, and boys are just vases. Strictly speaking, they don’t even have vases. Forget it, it’s just a cameo. More importantly, the story doesn’t have many highlights. Unless you want to star in a'High School Musical' and it's still a background board, I suggest you skip it."

Although Lan Li is only 21 years old this year, he is very young, but the campus comedy of high school students is really too...simple, and inexplicably out of place. Even if you want to attract young people, there are many projects to choose from, such as adrenaline-driven works like "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion".

Seeing the smile on Lan Li's face, Roy shrugged, "I think Andy must have taken the wrong script. Even if you want to try a musical, this is not the best choice. There is no need to follow the trend. "The firm tone was full of complaints.

Lanly can sing, and he sings very well. Roy knows that if he can appear in a music movie, this is indeed to give full play to his strengths, but obviously, "perfect pitch" will not be the choice.

Lan Li deeply felt that if Andy was there at the moment, it would be very interesting, which is much more fun than reading the script itself.

As for the final script of the knockout group, "The Hero Detective Jack", Roy's conclusion is also simple and clear, "As soon as you are filming, Paramount has announced the result, and Tom Cruise has decided to play, and then lead With his entire team taking over, from screenwriting to production to actor selection, we have already missed the opportunity."

"I heard that Tom is dissatisfied with this script now. He takes the screenwriter he trusts and wants to overthrow and rewrite it. I have no way of judging." Roy added and explained.

Despite this, Lan Li glanced through the script of "The Detective Jack" without hesitation. In fact, the quality, reputation and box office of this work itself are average, even if it is starred by Tom, it still fails to arouse the enthusiasm of the audience.

The reason is simple and straightforward. The image of the male protagonist is far from the original, and even caused strong protests from fans of the original. The final rewrite is quite similar to the male protagonist Ethan Hunt of "Mission Impossible"~www.novelhall. com~ is nothing new; and the script story returns to the style of the Cold War, but it can't get rid of the routine, and it becomes more and more boring and boring.

Even if it wasn't Roy, Lan Li himself had no interest in the four scripts, and he even looked dispirited.

But from another point of view, it is very likely that these four scripts themselves are not too optimistic about Lanli. After all, in terms of roles, weight, and popularity, in addition to the "vow" sounds more reliable, the other several The script is actually not suitable for Renli. The reason why these projects are willing to find blue gifts is probably just to join in the fun.

Of course, Lan Li is more willing to believe in another possibility: they are purely Andy's come to test Roy.

Because in addition to the "perfect tone", the other three scripts, purely in terms of project setting and investment scale, still have a lot of appeal, and the cast of these works finally illustrates this point. The project itself is excellent, but it does not mean that it is suitable for every actor. It depends on the judgment of the agent and the manager.

As a result, these four scripts were eliminated by Roy.

It can be seen that Roy has read the script carefully, and has a basic judgment on the role and the story, and has not simply rejected it because of the subject matter, style, cast and other reasons. This is a positive sign, at least, Roy still has a basic understanding of Lan Li's preferences.

Next, Lan Li skipped the uncertain group, but reached out to look at the recommended group. "Dragon Tiger Youth Team" and "Ring Envoy", Lan Li had some slight surprises about Roy's choice; at the same time, Andy's choice was also unexpected.

"Among these two scripts, I would recommend the "Ring Messenger" more." Roy went straight to the subject without any pause, with a neat answer, but Lan Li showed a slightly surprised look.
