Looking at Andy's somewhat helpless look, Lan Li's lazy eyebrows gradually stretched out, "This should be the second time, right?"

　　 Andy greeted Lan Li's eyes in a puzzled manner.

　　 "This is the second time you have shown your enthusiasm for a work other than an agent." Lan Li's voice was brisk, "The last time was'Star Wars', so what is the reason for this time?"

Andy immediately tasted the ridicule in Lan Li's words, which on the contrary made him feel at ease-this is the familiar Lan Li. He put his hands on the chubby and soft beer belly and patted gently." If I say, it’s because I’m dissatisfied with the current state of the film industry. A good director like David deserves more opportunities, do you believe it?"

　　 "Oh? What changed your mind?" Lan Li didn't complain about Andy, but asked about it. The subtext seemed to believe Andy's words.

Once upon a time, Andy was also a loyal supporter of commercial films. His love of "Star Wars" far exceeded his appreciation of George Lucas. It is precisely because of this that when Disney acquired Lucasfilm, Ann Di was more happy than worried, but now it has changed.

"Don Quixote Channel." Andy rarely showed sincerity-as an agent, opening his eyes and telling lies is a basic skill, and he is also very good at it; but in front of Lanly, Andy gradually got used to taking off his mask. He was able to breathe fresh air, and then reminded the truest self that he still hadn’t disappeared.

"I can't help thinking, if the'Star Wars' series were taken over by Sisyphus Pictures, what would it be like? If the Don Quixote Channel produced a series of'Star Wars' series, for example,' What will happen to the story of Rogue One? Can we really spy on the space world created by George Lucas, just like interstellar exploration, flying freely in the entire universe."

From Andy’s words, you can feel that for what happened to the "Rogue One" crew, he and Lan Li stood on the same line; but before, he must be on the side of Catherine Kennedy, that is what he did. The rule that the broker must adhere to, the benefit is the highest pursuit goal.

"I don't like'social networks' or'fight clubs', and I don't like David Fincher, but I know, David Fincher, David Lynch, Martin Scorsese, George Lu Cass...including directors like James Cameron, who gave the movie more dimensional possibilities."

"Without their creativity and ideas, then the fun of the big screen will gradually disappear. In the beginning, without imagination and creativity, there will be no works like'Star Wars' or'Jurassic Park' I have to admit that, after all, artistic creation still requires creativity."

　　 Andy’s perspective of interpretation is not new, but he has his own insights—from the standpoint of a commercial film and even a series of film lovers, he can see the overall situation of artistic creation. It can be said that if creativity and novelty are not respected, then Marvel movies will lose their souls. In the end, only the popcorn carefully packaged by Disney will be left, and those superhero images will lose their original vigorous vitality.

　　 Such a view may not be completely correct, but it is indeed an interpretation.

　　 Lan Li turned to look at Rooney, and said seriously, "Look, even Andy's artistic comprehension has reached such a high level, are you sure you don't need to change it?"

"Hey, I have no opinion on commercial films. I only have opinions on the production model of commercial films. They should not obliterate the personal characteristics of actors. Otherwise, what is the difference between me and other actors? Otherwise, why did they choose me instead of What about other actors playing roles? They need a Barbie doll. I believe they can find more than one in Hollywood, and I don’t need me to join in the fun, right?”

　　 Rooney glared at Lan Li fiercely, and fought back without showing any weakness. The sharp counterattack firmly expressed her position.

　　 Andy was a little dumbfounded.

Lan Li still smiled, "I agree with all what you said. The only opinion is that the expression and focus of commercial films and art films are inherently different, and the way of performance should also be changed. It's like the way comedy and tragedy are performed should resonate differently according to different scripts and characters. I think you should give commercial films another chance to see what happens."

Yesterday evening, Lan Li and Rooney talked about the shooting of a commercial film. Both "Interstellar" and "Rogue One" faced interference from off-site factors, while Rooney was filming "Peter Pan: A Dream of Sail". In the process, they also encountered similar problems, including director Joe Wright also being restrained.

　　Rooney is unavoidable to reject commercial films, while Lan Li insists that commercial films still have more potential.

"Then, we have to choose between Marvel and DC, right?" Rooney responded in a mocking way, with a playful look in her eyes, as if she was saying: So, what are you doing? How would you choose?

　　 Indeed, there are fewer and fewer options for large-screen commercial films. This is also the reason why David Fincher is in trouble. It is also the basis of the discussion just now. All of these have become the strongest argument to support Rooney's point of view.

　　 Lan Li didn't mind at all, but said seriously, "This is why we founded Sisyphus Pictures."

　　 "So, you mean, are you willing to see David's project?" Rooney said smoothly.

　　 "..." Lan Li laughed blankly, "Are you sure David didn't ask for your help?"

　　 "Haha." Rooney laughed happily.

　　 Lan Li's gaze turned to Andy again, he could perceive the expectation in Andy's eyes, "Do you also think I should give David a chance?"

"You have given David a chance. Sisyphus Pictures is discussing cooperation with David on this work, but you have chosen the other two works first. The key now is whether you should make plans in advance." Andy Slightly corrected Lanly's words, "If you nod, then Andre will definitely not refuse."

According to the plan, Sisyphus Pictures took the lead in filming the two series of "Stranger Things" and "Running of the Night". After the filming is completed, some funds will be returned from the hands before investing in the shooting of the other two series-for now. Look, it is very likely to be "big and small lies" and "mind hunters".

But the situation in Hollywood continues to change every day. It is impossible for David Fincher to wait innocently for a promise made by Sisyphus Pictures. He must also look for an exit, hoping to open up the situation for his career. . Maybe before Sisyphus Pictures is ready, the "Mind Hunter" will also find other partners.

　　 According to the development context of the previous life, the "Mind Hunter" should finally settle in Netflix.

In fact, the earliest time for the "Mind Hunter" project was in 2010. David Fincher teamed up with Charlize Theron as the producer and cooperated with HBO TV to develop this series, in which Charlize will play the leading role. They even hired a screenwriter to write the pilot episode, but then the collaboration failed to advance and was forced to shelve it; a year later, HBO tried to restart and set up a creative team, but unfortunately, they still lacked confidence in the end and disbanded the whole again. The team, and then the project is frozen.

Last year, David Fincher once again used the project to find Netflix and Sisyphus Films. The former has just completed the "House of Cards" with David and achieved great success; the latter is led by Lan Li, and is very successful. Films and art films have a unique attraction. But the result is still not satisfactory.

Netflix is ​​very hesitant to produce such a slow-paced and cold series, and cannot attract more paid subscribers, which does not help their expansion plan; Sisyphus Pictures is relatively active and proactively expressed The willingness to cooperate, but the priority level is slightly behind. The reason is also the problem of "return on benefits"——

　　 There is no way. Sisyphus Pictures has just been established. They need to see the benefits quickly to be able to continue to operate in a virtuous circle. Without Wall Street capital as a backer, they have limited options.

　　Business is still business after all.

　　 David also understands this, so he has no way to urge Netflix or Sisyphus. Instead, he finds Renly through Andy, hoping to make a breakthrough from Renly.

　　 Even if Lan Li is not acting as an actor, but participating in the production as a producer, this is enough. Sisyphus Pictures is definitely willing to give the green light for Lan Li.

If it was before, Lan Li would not hesitate to nod his head to agree, and was excited to participate in this work, this should be a new choice, even more worth looking forward to than the "burst drummer" ~ www.mtlnovel. com~ I have chosen a character full of infinite possibilities again after a long absence.

　　 But now, Lan Li looks dispirited. Knowing that this is a work worthy of excitement, there is calmness in my heart.

　　 He is not used to or likes himself like this.

　　 Lan Li let out a sigh of relief, "I don't like this feeling, this feeling of controlling his life and killing power."

For many people, what Qiangqi pursues in his whole life is to stand at the top of the pyramid, and then, like a god, turn his hands into clouds and cover his hands into rain. One word can determine his life and death. That supreme power is enough to make countless people. One after another.

　　 But Lan Li didn't like it. Because deciding the life and death of others means taking too many responsibilities.

　　As far as the "Mind Hunter" project is concerned, as long as Lan Li nods his head, then at least the work needs of 300 people can be solved, and at the same time, art creators like David Fincher can find hope and motivation.

But... this is the original intention of Lan Li’s attempt to create the Don Quixote channel at the Sundance Film Festival last year: he hopes to make full use of his influence to create more space and environment for the artistic creation of independent films. This is enough. A step that affects the entire industry.

　　 leveraging history, so the weight is naturally very important.

　　 "To what extent has David's script creation reached? I remember that last year, it was just a project plan, and the specific script has not been created yet, right?"
