Made in Hollywood

Chapter 462: Chickens and Cranes

As a director from Mexico, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarido has always worked hard in the independent film circle. So far, although he has only directed a small independent production of "Love is a Bitch", but He was well received by the film critics. When the film was released last year, many film critics gave his debut female work a high score of more than nine points.

This also made Alejandro Gonzalez Inarido full of confidence in his future, and decided to continue on the road of literature and art, shooting and producing an independent film with a higher cost.

His requirements are not too high, only about 10 million US dollars of investment is enough.

However, the ideal is very rich, the reality is cruel.

Although "Love is a Bitch" has been hyped by film critics, it cannot change the fact that the global box office is only more than 5 million US dollars. Inarido took his new script and ran all over Hollywood to be able to invest tens of millions of dollars in productions Companies, let alone no company is willing to invest, or even meet the top executives of those companies.

It's not that no one appreciates his script, but when it comes to investment, people who have read the script immediately shake their heads. In the minds of these people, such a literary script is definitely not worth the investment of 10 million US dollars.

Especially at Sony Columbia, Twentieth Century Fox, and Warner Bros., Inarido has received numerous scorns, and he has only recently figured out why this is the case. All three companies have heavyweight superhero movies, and his script tells The other is the devastating blow of the superhero character to the actor...

However, Inarido met at Warners a man quite like him -- first-generation Batman Michael Keaton.

It was because of the other party's introduction and help that he knew there was such a party in Malibu and got the invitation.

Inarido also learned about it. Not only the top executives of several Hollywood film companies attended the party, but also big-name producers such as Charles Rowan, Jon Landau and Kathleen Kennedy. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for him to promote himself.

The question is, with so many celebs at the party, how can he get the attention of the big guys?

This little director who was born as a radio DJ is a character. He has been soaked in the independent film circle for many years, and inevitably has a lot of literary and artistic flavors. In addition, he is popular in the independent film circle. Neuropathy, autism, schizophrenia and other characters. influences. He chose a particularly literary method, wanting to win the attention of everyone at the party, and then promote his own script by promoting his own way.

The fact is just as Inarido imagined. Since entering the huge banquet hall of the eye-shaped villa, everyone who saw him was stunned, as if they saw something incredible.

This talented director. Indeed, in a literary and artistic way, it instantly attracted the attention of many people.

Inarido's black medium-length hair was slightly curled and scattered behind his head. He probably hadn't washed it for many days. Not only was it shiny, but a lot of it was sticking together. turned into wisps.

In particular, in contrast to the formal attire of the rest of the ballroom, Inarido was wearing a tattered denim that had been washed white, and the tops of his pants were the same as his directorial career. Full of literary atmosphere, several holes were opened.

Such a dress will definitely stand out in the banquet hall. It's hard not to be attractive.

However, Inarido is well aware that this is not enough, it does not fully highlight his personality. To stand out from the crowd, he had already planned how to make himself stand proudly above the vulgar people in Hollywood.

In Inarido's view, his personality is represented by literary and artistic atmosphere, and literary and artistic atmosphere represents outstanding talent, and talent should be appreciated by others.

He walked straight through the banquet hall and walked towards the place where the dining table was placed. Anyone blocking his way or on both sides, all retreated with their noses covered, giving Inari the feeling of a king coming.

"How long has this person not taken a bath?"

"What's that smell? How could Duke invite such a person?"

All the discussions on both sides were automatically ignored by Inarido. He walked to the dining table, took an extra-large tray, and placed the roast lamb shank, tender veal steak, and cheese cake one by one on the tray. , and even deliberately took one of the largest Alaskan king crabs...

Carrying food and drinks, Inari found a table closest to the crowd. After sitting down, he began to eat and drink. People looked at each other.

Inarido didn't feel anything, and in the most literary and unusual way he thought was the most literary, the most unusual, sitting here and eating haise...

Emma is the steward of the duke's manor. Although the party is entrusted to a special company, she personally supervises the internal coordination.

As soon as Inarido came in, she noticed it, and kept staring at him until he sat down at the table eating and drinking.

Wearing such clothes and appearing in public with such behavior, no one can say anything. After all, this is a personal freedom, but going to someone else's house as a guest or attending such a high-end party is a great disrespect to the host. !

Disrespectful, uneducated...

This was Inarido's first impression on Emma, ​​let alone a formal birthday party, even if it was the most sought-after banquet, the other party was very rude.

There may be a problem with the other party's head, and it may be a dangerous person...

This is what Emma then thought of. After all, as long as a person with a normal head, who would do such an outrageous behavior?

The sound of the man breaking the legs of the Alaskan king crab even reached Emma's ears, and she gradually became convinced that the other party's spirit should not be normal.

Emma lifted the skirt of the black dress, turned and walked towards where Tina Fei was. It is said that there is a circle in Hollywood, which always focuses on the production of neurotic movies. Many directors and actors who enter the show sometimes also Getting yourself crazy, maybe that's one of them.

She wanted to ask Tina Fey, so as not to make a mistake, what if the other party was a guest invited by Duke, who happened to be an experiential actor playing a neurotic type role?

"Did you see that man?" she whispered as she walked over to Tina Fey.

Tina Fey nodded. "I've been paying attention to him for a long time."

"Is this an invited guest?" Emma asked again.

Tina Fei shook her head and said with certainty, "No, do you think the guests are so disrespectful to the host and themselves?"

This kind of behavior is not only disrespectful to the owner, but also disrespectful to himself.

Emma looked back, "He may be the unsettling factor."

Tina Fey glanced at Duke, who was still talking to Jobs, and made a decision, "Let Charlie and Bruce come in and take him out quietly."

She knew Duke's habit, and it was absolutely intolerable for her boss.

Inarido threw away the crab legs, took a big sip from the wine glass, picked up the napkin casually, wiped it back and forth on his mouth a few times, and threw it on the tray, burping undisguisedly, and was about to stand. When he got up, looking for the right person to sell himself and the script from the eyes that had been watching him, two white men in black formal dresses came over.

The two stood behind him one by one, and the older one said with a smile, "This gentleman, Miss Tina Fei wants to talk to you."

Hearing Tina Fey's name, Inarido's eyes lit up immediately. The other party is not well-known, but he is the executive of Duke's studio and Duke Rosenberg's deputy. What is she doing to him?

Although the whole thought is very artistic, Inarido will not think that the other party is interested in him...

Turning his head a little, he couldn't help but think of a possibility. Could it be that his extraordinary behavior attracted Duke Rosenberg's attention? The other party is not only a top director in the circle, but also a billionaire. An investment of 10 million US dollars is nothing at all, right?

Duke Rosenberg has in-depth cooperation with Warner Bros., and he went to Warner to deliver the script. Maybe he has already read the script...

Thinking of this, Inari nodded and stood up, followed the two of them to the outside of the banquet hall, his head was still spinning, his own way of looking to the end, that is a literary and artistic film skill that can alarm God and Satan, get It is normal for people to appreciate.

Just after walking out of the banquet hall, Inarido suddenly found something unusual. Two people sandwiched him in the middle and walked towards the parking lot, asking, "Where are we going?"

"Sorry, sir."

As a professional bodyguard, Bruce didn't give him any chance, "Please leave here, your clothes and behavior are too rude."

"Do not……"

"Sir, please don't make any noise,"

Tina Fei stepped out of the shadows on the side of the road, "Now I solemnly ask you to leave, and give you a piece of advice, proper clothes and basic etiquette are both respect for the master and for yourself. "

Inarido didn't listen to it at all, but said to himself, "Miss, I have a script and a project that I want to invest in Director Rosenberg..."

Hearing this, Tina Fei frowned slightly.

Before she could say anything, Inarido took another sentence, "I will use a one-shot method to shoot this project!"

Originally, Tina Fei was still a little hesitant. After hearing about such a literary film technique, she waved to Blue and Charlie and asked two bodyguards to escort the very literary director out of the manor.

In the past, she and Duke discussed the technique of one shot to the end. Her own boss was not interested in this kind of film technique full of literary and artistic style.

Inarido drove out of the park manor and glanced back at the behemoth, with a bit of resentment in his eyes. He just wanted to show his personality, but the other party thought he was rude and kicked him out... (Unfinished) To be continued~^~)
