Hollywood Road

Chapter 65 Rejection

Ask for a recommendation ticket!

"Well done, Murphy."

Bill Rossis came first, smiling, "Better than I expected."

"Thank you." Murphy responded with a polite smile.

Following Bill Rossis was Joel Graham. He just glanced at Murphy but said nothing. Murphy stretched out his hand and said politely, "Thank you for coming to watch my video. ."

Joel Graham nodded to this side, shook his hand lightly again, turned and walked down the aisle towards the exit of the theater.

Needless to say, Murphy can also see that this one is not interested in Hard Candy.

The black woman Jones Butler then came over, said hello to Bill Rossis first, and smiled at Murphy, "Very good movie."

Murphy squeezed her outstretched hand. "Thank you. I'm so honored by your compliment."

Compared with these two people, Baker Larson, who came over in the end, was much more casual. He waved to Bill Rossis and Murphy, "Can we talk while we walk?"

"Of course." Murphy made a gesture of invitation, led the way with his head, and caught up with Joel Graham and Jones Butler who were walking in front, who were being guided by Paul Wilson. Going down, he walked out of the theater, and he invited him in a timely manner, "I have reserved a seat at the Fiero restaurant, do you have time for the three of you?"

"Sorry," Jones Butler said first, "I have to get off the court."

Joel Graham also shook his head and refused.

The group walked out of the theater at this time. The car called by Bill Rossis was already waiting here. After Paul Wilson stepped forward and opened the car door, Jones Butler and Joel Graham quickly got in the car. It does seem to be in a hurry.

After this period of adjustment, Murphy has completely recovered, and it is normal to be rejected. Compared with the buyers of these distribution companies, his new director is really an inconspicuous little person.

Baker-Larson walked over from behind, but instead of getting in the car, he stopped in front of Murphy, "Director Stanton, your film is very interesting, but the audience is a problem..."

He originally looked at Murphy's face, but his eyes gradually moved down, "I personally like this film very much, but considering the audience, it must be carefully considered."

The eyes were a little hot, and Murphy felt very uncomfortable, but he couldn't say anything.

Baker-Larsent's eyes finally settled on his strong chest, and the conversation suddenly changed, "Dinner is free. I know that there is a bar outside Three Streets. If you are interested, we can go over for a drink."

His eyes lifted to Murphy, as if waiting for a suitable answer.

When he first came here, Murphy might not understand the meaning, but now he doesn't understand.

Without any hesitation, he shook his head and refused, and casually made up a reason, "I'm sorry, I quit drinking."

"Unfortunately..." Baker-Larson didn't bother, and turned to the car, "Goodbye."

Looking at the passing car, Murphy looked calm. Among the three professional filmmakers, at least two would no longer pay attention to Hard Candy.

He never thought that he would attract a peep from a glass. He had no objection to comrades, but he lacked the slightest interest in doing things.

It's true that the road would be smoother with some underlying rules of the game in Hollywood, but that doesn't mean he's selling himself.

Standing here alone, Murphy turned to look back, Paul Wilson and Bill Rossis were standing on the steps of the theater door, presumably not hearing Baker Larson, his face Somewhat curious.

Not far behind them, there is a middle-aged man looking at this side. When he just came out, he was standing here.

The screening of "Fruit Hard Candy" is over,

It was a bit deserted beyond Murphy's estimates. In the fantasy, the situation in which countless publishing companies were crying and competing did not appear. It was only Jones Butler and Baker Larsent who expressed interest rationally. The latter may also be because of him. 's refusal to drop the film.

Shaking his head vigorously, Murphy sighed, the road to Hollywood was more difficult than expected.

But no matter how difficult the road is, it can't scare him, nor can it stop his determination to climb up. He must break out of his own world in this extremely realistic and complex circle.

Now is just the beginning!

Turning around, Murphy strode back to the entrance of the theater. Just as he stepped on the steps, the middle-aged man behind Bill Rossis and Paul Wilson suddenly walked over and came directly in front of him.

"Hello..." The middle-aged man said politely, "I would like to ask, are you the director of Hard Candy?"

"Yes," Murphy asked, looking at him, as if he had seen it in the theater before, vaguely remembering that he changed seats a few times, from the last row to his row, "May I ask who you are?"

"My name is Tony Guzman." While speaking, the middle-aged man stretched out his right hand, "From Fox Searchlight."

Murphy reached out and shook it, "Hello, Mr. Guzman, nice to meet you."

This is his sincere words. The other party is obviously a professional film watcher and buyer. He didn't accept the invitation. After watching the film, he took the initiative to find him, which shows that he is at least interested in "Fruit Hard Candy".

"Hello, Mr. Guzman." Bill Rossis on the other side took the initiative to come over and introduce himself, "Bill Rossis, Murphy's agent, from CAA."

Hearing the latter name, Tony Guzman took a serious look at Bill Rossis, shook hands with him and said hello.

I have to say, CAA's name is really loud enough.

"Two..." Tony Guzman directly asked the doubts in his heart, "May I ask who is the producer or investor of the film?"

"The film was made by my Stanton studio." Murphy knew the purpose of his question. "It's all from my personal investment, and the copyright is all in the hands of Stanton studio."

Tony Guzman nodded, "Let's put it this way, Director Stanton, I'm a little interested in this film, and I may need to bring my colleagues to watch it later."

"No problem." Murphy took out his business card and handed it over, "Welcome anytime."

After taking the business card, Tony Guzman put it away and gave Murphy another one of his own. This time the goal has been achieved and will not stop.

"I have to go to another show." He said goodbye, "I hope we have a chance to cooperate."

Murphy shook his hand and said goodbye, "I'm also looking forward to the opportunity to work with Fox Searchlight."

After sending Tony Guzman away, Murphy did not intend to stay any longer. He sealed the film with Paul Wilson and returned to the hotel. Early the next morning, he received a call from Bill Rossis, Jones- Butler wanted to take a few others to see Hard Candy again.
