"Mr. Anderson, this guy is Michael Pete, a very good actor."

In the TV studio's studio, an audition video was being screened on the white curtain. A very elegant middle-aged man said to Ronan: "He has appeared in many films, and his acting skills are the best among all the actors auditioned."

Producer Andry stood up, shaking his chubby body, and retorted: "Michael Pitt's acting skills are indeed the best, but he is not suitable for this role!"

The middle-aged man with temperament is Carl Boyet, an associate producer hired by the crew. He has a certain reputation in the industry and is very old. He is also a member of the producers' league.

"Isn't our basis for choosing an actor not acting?" Carl Boyt and Andri confronted him: "Michael Pitt has good acting skills and good image, so why isn't he suitable for the second male lead?"

He didn't seem to take Andry, who is more like a good-looking person, and said, "Mr. Anderson, I promise, this actor is what the crew needs."

Andri is a good old man, but he also has his own principles and insists: "This is a comedy, the character has a humorous temperament and aura, but what about Michael Pitt? His acting skills are good, his image is good, but his temperament is very incompatible! What we want is a comedian, Michael Pitt has a very obvious gloomy temperament, which makes people feel sad when they see it!"

Karl Buyt turned to Andri: "Temperament can be changed through performance!"

Andri said the truth: "I didn't see him performing like this in the audition."

The audition video was played at this time. Ronan raised his hand and stopped the quarrel between the two. Then he looked at the silent director Todd Phillips and asked, "Director Phillips, what about your opinion?"

Although Todd Phillips is only in his early thirties, he can get this director position through Shahai Entertainment's investigation. He has certain abilities and knows his own power boundaries. He does not want to participate in the dispute between the producer and the deputy producer.

Moreover, he has directed and filmed five movies and understood many of the rules of light and dark in Hollywood.

This is far from as simple as it seems.

"I..." Todd Phillips smiled and said, "Michael Pitt's acting skills are excellent, and his temperament and character settings are not particularly matched."

Saying this means not saying it.

Ronan looked at Michael Pete, who was frozen on the screen. That slightly gloomy face was more suitable for starring in art films.

"Andry." Ronan asked directly: "Do you have a better candidate?"

Andri has worked with Ronan more than once, and has been prepared for another audition video. This is a young, handsome and sunny male actor. He looks less than 30 years old, which is in sharp contrast to the gloomy Michael Pitt.

In the audition video performance, this person is full of funny feeling, carefree and funny, and seems to have a certain comedy talent.

More importantly, Ronan recognized the young actor as a former big star at a glance, but his name was a bit difficult to remember, and what he could not remember was the names and scenes of several very famous movies starring him. Among them, the most memorable one was undoubtedly the voice of the little raccoon in the Galaxy Dance Team.

By the way, his famous work is a very powerful comedy.

The acting skills this person showed during the audition were indeed not as good as Michael Pete, but his temperament was more in line with the role.

Although Ronan rarely directly participates in the specific work of the crew, he cannot hide some of the situations of the crew with a slightly higher investment.

"Michael Pitt is not suitable." Ronan made a decision directly and pointed to the young actor on the curtain: "He is good..."

Andri said: "This is Bradley Cooper, who has played different roles in five movies and two episodes before, most of which have a funny part."

Karl Buyet did not give up and argued: "I think..."

Ronan raised his hand again to stop Carl Buyet's words and said, "I have decided to use Bradley Cooper."

It is not difficult to choose between a gloomy actor and a sunny handsome guy, and one of them is the comedy star in my memory.

When Todd Phillips saw Ronan make a decision, he stood up and said, "Mr. Anderson, I still need to prepare for the shooting."

Ronan nodded: "Go and do your business." When Todd Phillips left the studio, he said to Andry again: "Ask a contract as soon as possible."

Karl Buyet wanted to speak again, and Ronan interrupted him directly: "Mr. Buyet, this matter ends here."

This producer was hired by Shahai Entertainment. Like other Hollywood film companies, with the increase in film projects, although the first producers of the crew are all from Shahai Entertainment, many members of the production team inevitably need to recruit externally.

There are many positions in the production team and the power is relatively high.

Luo Nan said lightly: "I don't want to say more about some things, but it doesn't mean I don't know."

Hearing this, Karl Buyt's face changed slightly, but after all, he was an experienced seniority in the circle and soon returned to normal.

Karl Buyt said nothing more and turned around and left the office.

Ronan had a detailed understanding of this casting dispute before coming to the crew today and was very clear about what was going on.

It's nothing more than giving and rewarding.

It's just between men.

To be honest, this external recruit Carl Boyte is quite principled. After getting benefits from Michael Pitt, he tried his best to win roles for him and had quarrels with producer Andry several times.

Similar things are not the first time that a crew of Shahai Entertainment has happened, nor will it be the last one. The crew can be said to be a microcosm of Hollywood's Vanity Fair, not a harmonious and loving kindergarten.

Ronan can tolerate the existence of differences, disputes and contradictions. The crew cannot eliminate these at all, but there is a prerequisite that cannot affect normal work.

"Downplay the position of Karl Buyet on the crew," Ronan said to Andri: "From today on his behalf, he has a position or no power."

Andri worked with Ronan many times and immediately said, "I understand what to do."

Ronan did not ask the crew to dismiss Karl Buyet. Both parties signed a contract, and dismissing him may cause greater trouble. There is no clear evidence to dismiss him for no reason. Once the complaint is made to the union, the union may be investigated.

Trade unions are synonymous with trouble for Hollywood investors.

Just let Karl Buyet stand aside on the crew.

After leaving the film room, Karl Buyt sighed, knowing that he was finished in this crew.

But now, I finally have an explanation.

Impulse is a devil.

That night, he drank too much wine and ate something that he couldn't write, plus a gloomy handsome guy like Michael Pete...

Karl Buyet knew very well that if the other party gave, he would have to pay accordingly.

Although it's nothing and it may not matter, Karl Buyt doesn't want to take risks. After all, once the trouble starts, his wife, children and family will be ruined.

Although there are many people with similar orientations in the circle, few people dare to take the risk of making public.

In order to win the role for Michael Pitt, Carl Buyet quarreled with the producer several times, and even made trouble in front of Ronan Anderson, the first producer and the boss of Relativity Entertainment. The news spread and there was nothing there.

After all, the real actor choice is in the hands of Ronan Anderson, and he has done his best.

This ends with this matter...

Before Ronan left the crew, he asked Andry for information about Bradley Cooper, and returned to the car of Relativity Entertainment, and roughly took a look.

Through Bradley Cooper's information, Ronan gradually recalled the name and general plot of the comedy movie - "The Hangover".

Bradley Cooper is one of many protagonists.

In this movie, Ronan has a much shallow impression, mainly a typical Hollywood shit, peeing, fart comedy. Most audiences in the East have difficulty getting the funny points. Sometimes they even think that they are a group of mentally retarded and strangely irritated.

Therefore, American comedy does not perform very well when it leaves the Western and even the English market.

However, this type of film has always been highly accepted in the North American market and can be regarded as a timeless type. Similar to bloody and cruel horror films, it is relatively less affected by the real social environment.

Since I remembered it, Luo Nan would naturally not let it go.

Back to the Relativity Entertainment, he recalled his past movies while writing outlines and character settings, took out his spare time from work, and completed the story outline in a few days, and specifically asked someone to go to the copyright office and the screenwriter union to do corresponding searches.

Nowadays, the Copyright Office and the Screenwriter Union have established digital databases, and many things are particularly convenient to check. After confirming that there is no copyright issue, they will be transferred to the Shahai Entertainment Screenwriter Department where they complete the script creation.

As for the shooting and production of this project, you have to wait until after "Wedding Prok". If "Wedding Prok" can be successful, the shooting and production team can be continued to complete the "Hangover".

Ronan tried hard to recall information related to Bradley Cooper, and found that the comedy obviously later transformed into a director and directed a highly popular movie. The heroine was the famous Ms. Gaga.

Bradley Cooper can be described as versatile.

Thinking of this, Ronan called Andre specifically and asked him to sign several film contracts with Bradley Cooper for Shahai Entertainment.

As time goes by September, the North American box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" approaches $350 million, while the global box office exceeds $600 million.

The popularity of this film has passed, and the main publicity and distribution work of Embassy Film has gradually shifted to new films.
