Chapter 53: Find a secret helper before the strike begins(1/2)
Ronald Helen arrived first and took a short rest at the Fifth Avenue house while Ronald went to change clothes. Helen saw on the table outside the photo of Ronald and the couple attending Demi Moore's wedding that he had just received.
Picked it up and looked at it for a while.
"What do you think about Bruce Willis and Demi Moore getting married?" Helen turned to ask Ronald, who had changed his clothes.
"I'm happy for them." Ronald glanced at Helen, why did he bring up this topic?
"I mean, what do you think about getting married...? I want to say, do you think they really love each other?" Helen was a little flustered under Ronald's gaze.
"I think so. Look at their smiles. I believe it's true love." Ronald picked up the photo of himself and the newlyweds alone and pointed it out to Helen.
In the photo, Demi is looking at Bruce with spring in her eyes and a hand on her husband's shoulder. Bruce has a happy smile on his face and has one hand around Demi Moore's waist.
"Marriage without love is immoral." Helen Slater said while looking at the photo of the two of them, "If marriage is to obtain something other than love, then there will definitely be problems."
"It's difficult, right? When a person takes a journey in the world, he is always surrounded by various factors, wealth, passion, children, or for whatever reason. The kind of love you are talking about may only exist in Hollywood.
In the middle of the movie.”
"Don't say that. I think there must be pure love between men and women before they can get married. Recently, newspapers are saying that Demi married Bruce because of his star status with a salary of five million, calling him a gold digger.
"
"That's not fair, Demi Moore still lacks a movie."
"Humph..." Helen, a girl from Upper Manhattan who likes to talk, came up, "What about Harrison Ford and his ex-wife? He divorced her before he started starring in Star Wars. I don't think they really had any real feelings at that time.
love."
"We don't know what the relationship between him and his ex-wife was like at that time." Ronald felt that Helen was a little abnormal today. Whether Harrison Ford loves his ex-wife is a private matter, but he has two children. Now he only pays
Just alimony.
"What about George Lucas? His ex-wife Martha was an editor. She edited many parts of Star Wars. Isn't she divorced?"
"This..." Ronald knew the inside story, it was Martha Lucas who had cheated on her.
"Men are like this. At that time, they liked their girlfriend to be beautiful, or wanted something from her. But ten years later? The woman is no longer beautiful, or the resources are no longer useful to him. The same goes for your friend Cameron."
"Well..." Ronald thought to himself that this was true, "but they loved each other very much when they got married."
"This is what I said, real love. This kind of short-term passion is not real love." Helen began to use her own logic, "But people who take advantage of the opportunity to be in love don't know whether it is true or not."
So my point of view is that it’s better not to get married, because you can’t understand what true love is.”
Ronald wiped his sweat secretly. It was better not to force the marriage. "I think you are right. Can we eat now?"
"Hahaha..." Seeing that Helen was talking so nonsense, Ronald was still very patient with her, and her mood suddenly improved, "How about we go eat Italian food?"
The two of them made a tacit agreement not to talk about this matter anymore, and found an expensive Italian restaurant for dinner next to the shopping mall below the building.
While Helen was eating, she was still thinking about the phone conversation she overheard when she went to her father Gerald's place. They were discussing the possibility of Helen marrying Ronald and letting Ronald accept Jewish teachings. Although her father immediately rejected it,
Treating her like a bargaining chip made her very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Ronald did not see herself in this way. Helen smiled at Ronald again.
Ronald was confused. What on earth did he say, which was sometimes good and sometimes bad? What he didn't know was that there was a large group of Jews behind Helen who were considering the possibility of recruiting him.
Jews in Hollywood are still very concerned about Ronald's appearance. Such a talented non-Jewish director and producer is undoubtedly a threat to Jewish control of the entertainment media industry.
Since Ronald has a production and distribution company, he has the possibility of breaking away from the seven major studios and doing it on his own. Although Jews now gradually control the few remaining major studios and distribution channels, even the most anti-Semitic
Disney and Eisner are also gradually opening up the situation.
But it’s uncertain about movies. How many movie studios can rise because of one movie. The Jews don’t want to have any surprises in this situation that was finally achieved after hard work. Suppressing Ronald requires a lot of resources, and it also affects those who support the Jews.
Disadvantage for star actors.
After all, Ronald's "Dirty Dancing" won the rare Jewish actress Jennifer Grey. Now the industry is piling resources on this rare beautiful actor who is also loved by the audience. Barbara·
After Streisand reduced her film production, there was no Jewish female star for a long time. The biggest obstacle for this race to dominate the entertainment industry is that women are not good-looking.
If Ronald can be recruited to be the husband of a Jewish girl, and then through some operations, he can be converted to Judaism, then the problem that he is not one of our own can be solved at the lowest cost.
…
Helen let go of her worries and had a good night's rest with Ronald. Ronald slept soundly until dawn.
Proper male-female life makes men full of energy. Very early on, Ronald came to the office where the film was being prepared.
"Morning, Ronald." The assistant was surprised to find that he was not here earlier than Ronald.
"Morning, it's the same as yesterday. You watch the door and give me a warning when someone from the Writers Guild comes." Ronald made good progress in the morning and wrote several scenes. Until a phone ring interrupted him.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Hello, Ronald is talking." Ronald picked up the phone receiver.
"Hey, Ronald, remember me? I'm Cameron."
"Oh, God, Cameron, why did you call me? We haven't seen each other for two or three years? Are you okay?" Ronald heard it. This was his first movie.
Screenwriter and original author of "Fast-paced Richmond High" Cameron Crowe.
Since the two finished filming the movie, Crowe also wrote a movie called "Wild Life", which did not do well at the box office. Later, he worked as a screenwriter doctor for director Joe Schumacher and revised "St. Elmo's Fire".
"The script.
Ronald then turned to filming the low-budget "Night of the Comet" and "The Dragon King". The two rarely interacted with each other after that.
"I wrote a TV series for Global Television Network, which was a spin-off of 'Fast Pace'. They had the rights to adapt it. However, the ratings in 1986 were not high, and the eighth episode was canceled. Even Back to the Future
The heroine Claudia Wells can’t even be saved...hahaha."
No wonder Ronald hasn't heard Cameron Crowe's name appear in Hollywood recently. He didn't find an opportunity to be a director, and then switched to TV series. After the failure, he was basically abandoned by Hollywood.
After the "fast-paced" TV series adaptation was axed, his girlfriend Nancy Wilson, a rock star, experienced a career explosion. Nancy and her sister formed the band Hearts, which had two consecutive releases that reached No. 1 on the charts.
His records have sold millions of copies.
The two got married in 1986. After the marriage, Cameron Crowe basically became Nancy's househusband. However, starting this year, Nancy reduced her musical output and began to take a rest. She also encouraged Crowe to continue trying.
A film career that I love.
"So, you are the helper that Rick (Nisita) found for me?" Crowe called and it was Niceta who arranged it.
"Yeah, I think there is no better way to return to Hollywood than this, as long as you still recognize my screenwriting ability." Cameron Crowe was the first one on the list to be spotted by Niceta.
"I've got to be honest with you, Cameron. I can't give you a credit, I can't pay you, we have to do it secretly, and you can't tell anyone that you're doing me a favor. Wait until the Writers Guild and the Production
The Film Producers Association has reached an agreement and I will compensate you from other places."
"No problem, we are old acquaintances." Cameron Crowe readily agreed.
"This job requires me to work late at night. The scripts I have to rewrite every day will be faxed to you as soon as possible. You have to revise them immediately. No matter how late at night, you have to give me a satisfactory revised draft. I have to get it from the actors at night.
Tuck it under the door so they can get familiar with it before filming starts the next day.”
"I know the rules." Cameron Crowe also cherishes this opportunity. Nancy and I have agreed that she will support me.
"That's great. I'm very reassured about your level. But we have to be careful. You can call my assistant later, and I will secretly come out and find a place to talk to you. A strike is probably unavoidable, and they will occupy it by then.
On the set, these people would stare at me every day if they had nothing to do."
"It doesn't matter. I've been with Nancy for the past two years. I haven't paid my membership fee to the Writers Guild. My current membership is suspended. They won't care about me too much..."
Niceta later called Ronald and asked him how the interview with Crowe went.
"I have decided to use him. This is not a job interview. I just need someone I have worked with before. He is the most suitable."
"I have worked with you all the time here. Since you like him, let's make a deal. I will arrange for him to fly to New York and rent a good hotel."
Cameron Crowe took the earliest flight to New York that day. During the trip, he revised the script that Ronald faxed. After staying in the hotel, he discussed the plot with Ronald in the hotel.
"Very good, very good, you are still the genius screenwriter. The Harrison Ford you wrote is very good." Ronald read Crowe's changed plot. He allowed Harrison Ford to use his own charm while also adding other characters to the story.
The supporting roles are well done and do not affect the overall plot conflict.
"Nancy is a fan of his movies, and I watched a lot of videos." Crowe is very familiar with Harrison Ford's star image, so the Jack Traynor he writes has Harrison's usual temperament.
"Very good, that's it. I'm sorry that I can't invite you to the crew to communicate with the actors. Today the Writers Guild officially announced that a general strike will begin. We will maintain such private communication, and no one on the crew will know that you are here to help me.
Already."
"No problem, it's just that I don't know what kind of food is available here." Cameron Crowe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ronald was satisfied with his work.
"Call this phone." Ronald took out the key card of his apartment on Fifth Avenue, which had the housekeeper's phone number on it. "This is the service apartment where I live. There is a five-story shopping mall below the building, and there are restaurants nearby.
You can order food and charge it, you can order whatever you want. If you get tired of eating, you can go to other places to change your taste.
Well, why don't you just live at my place, it's more private and the nasty guys from the Writers Guild can't get in."
"That's great, thank you."
The two arrived at Fifth Avenue, and Ronald opened a long-term rental room for Crowe in the hotel.
"The conditions here are great, it's very quiet, I will be very efficient," Crowe said with a smile. He turned on the TV, which happened to be replaying the footage of the Writers Guild announcing the strike.
Brian Walton, the plenipotentiary negotiator of the two major screenwriters unions, announced the start of the strike on TV. The two major unions, with a total of more than 9,600 screenwriters, will refuse to give Hollywood movies, TV series, and scripts from now on
reality live show, as well as writing new scripts for TV commercials.
He vowed to help screenwriters get the power they deserve.
"The first is a total of 300 million U.S. dollars in arrears. This is owed to all screenwriters by producers in Hollywood and New York TV over the past three years. Nick Kuant, president of the Producers Guild, proposed 50 million U.S. dollars.
