Legendary Hollywood Producer - Chapter 182

Seeing that both of them were talking about schedules, and did not refuse, Roman had a bottom in his heart.

He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, since I want to run this new film project, naturally I have to consider everything? Although I can’t make a film during this time, the preliminary preparations can be done in advance. Oh, yes. And the adaptation of novels into movie scripts can also be done first.”

He bought the right to adapt the novel, but he hasn’t done anything yet to make it into a specific text suitable for filming.

“Okay, then I have nothing to say.” Christopher Nolan raised the dark beer in his hand and touched the two of them: “When I finish filming the rest of “Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow”, I can proceed. Projects here.”

Christian Bell is even more uncomfortable. Whether it is Roman, the owner of a very successful film production company, or Nolan, he also feels that a very good director is worthy of him to join this collaboration.

This is true regardless of whether it is from the perspective of human relations or from the perspective of personal career development.

“I’m fine.”

Hearing the verbal affirmation of the two, Roman’s mood was even better.

But he went on to say: “Then about cooperation, we still have to clarify in advance.”

After the two of them focused their attention, Roman continued: “We will not discuss the salary matter. We will wait until the Batman project is completed, and then it will be better for your two agents to talk about it. Let’s talk about it first. Preliminary preparations.”

“What do we need to do?” Christopher Nolan asked with a puzzled look.

Isn’t the preparation of the project all handled by the production company?

“The script is a matter of the script.” Roman raised his arm, pretending to be holding a novel in his hand, and said: “The length of the novel is too long, and it needs to be cut and selected appropriately to make this story about the magician. The story is on the big screen. Now that Nolan, you are willing to be the director of this project, I just thought, how about leaving the adaptation of the script to you?”

Roman seemed to be drunk a little too much, and the alcohol was coming up. Seeing him look quite funny, Christopher Nolan thought for a while and thought that Roman’s proposal was very good.

He himself has always liked to participate in all aspects of the filming work, and the adaptation of scripts is not unfamiliar to him.

However, some things need to be clarified.

“It’s okay to leave the script to me, but I need manpower to assist me. The sense of measure in it…”

Seeing Christopher Nolan’s face hesitant to speak, Roman said directly: “Don’t worry, you can say it, I will consider the opinions here.”

Seeing Roman promised, Nolan said: “It’s my brother’s business. I want to work with him to write the script of this project.”

Oh, it turned out to be like this, Roman thought: I knew that Nolan had a younger brother who was a screenwriter. It’s not surprising.

“How about $200,000? Use it as a reward for this.”

To be honest, it’s a bit expensive. If you ask the screenwriters of your own Manhai Entertainment Company to write it, it is estimated that it will not cost so much money. If it is dead, it can be done at about 100,000.

However, Nolan, as the director, has to personally participate in the writing of this. With his perspective and shooting thinking, it is estimated that the script will be more inclined to the effect of the film. This is worth it, and the key is to win the two sides. The friendship between.

Upon seeing this, Christopher Nolan nodded and agreed.

The status of the screenwriter is not high in the entire Hollywood circle. Besides, the compensation given by Roman is indeed not low, and there is really no reason for rejection.

“What about Bell, do you have any requests?” Roman looked at Christian Bell on the side and asked softly.

“Me? I don’t have any requirements, but you are Roman. Do you have any conditions for the role in this movie? You can tell me first.” Christian Bell was drinking, and he quickly replied when asked by Roman.

“I do have some thoughts about the role.” Roman seemed to have thought of something, he smiled and said: “Bell, you, may have to lose weight again.”

He thought for a while, then asked: “Let’s talk about your current body weight first, what is it?”

Now Christian Bell is still on the set every day in his free time, he is gaining muscle, shaping, and exercising a beautiful body, so he is very clear about his body data. He said: “About 87 kilograms, how Is this going to lose some weight?”

“Think about it for yourself, does the magician need a superhuman body condition, not to mention, your raised chest muscles can’t be blocked even if you wear clothes, what do you think?”

Romain’s words made Bell smile bitterly.

To be honest, although he is very familiar with how to gain muscle and lose weight, it does not mean that he is willing to toss his body like this.

In the end, it is a kind of torture, especially for myself.

But the professional actor’s attitude still made him ask: “How much is appropriate?”

“It’s easy to dress to be thin and don’t bulge up your muscles. It’s very simple.”

Christian Bale listened and felt a little relieved. As Roman said, it was really simple.

With his current physical condition, as long as he doesn’t insist on daily exercise, resume his usual diet, and reduce it a little bit, he will be able to bring his body muscles back down greatly without much difficulty.

“Okay, I see, there is nothing wrong with it, I can do it.”

“That’s the end of the matter, and it’s getting late now. Let’s go back after drinking this one.”

Neither the director’s worth nor the actors’ remuneration can be discussed verbally now, so Roman didn’t mention it at all.

Even if it is mentioned, Nolan and Bell are willing to agree, and it will not be a thing that will satisfy both parties.

Perhaps they will agree on Roman’s personal favor. But in this way, it is not the purpose of closer relations as originally planned.

And the reason why the agent was born is because of this slightly embarrassing situation.

Talk less, hurt peace, talk too much, not happy.

Either way, it’s not so fulfilling, so just leave it to professionals to handle it. This way, there is plenty of room for negotiation.

The three raised the dark beer in their hands, collided with each other, making a crisp sound, and then drank it again.

After drinking, Roman bought the bill, and accompanied him out the door of the bar.
