In this magical land of America, besides popular shootings, the influence of hurricanes should not be underestimated. Like tornados, it is commonplace.

Regarding topics such as storm, it is also a relatively common type in Hollywood, and has a wide audience in North America.

Like "Tornado" directed by Jane De Bonter, it also entered the top three in the North American annual box office list.

Therefore, the script of "Super Storm" recommended by Martin Scorsese aroused Ronan's interest and made people find the complete version of the script as soon as possible.

To some extent, this is a bit like another movie "The Day After".

The success of this disaster film by Roland Emmerich is not only due to special effects, but also in line with the needs of current society.

For governments around the world, climate issues are an increasingly serious and urgent issue.

For centuries, humans have longed to understand, master and ultimately control the Earth's climate change.

The screenwriter of "Super Storm" is also a smart person.

The script tells the story of global warming frequently causing even more terrifying hurricanes in the near future. When a super-strong hurricane is about to hit the east coast of the United States, the "Storm Shield" group in which the hero is located plans to use the technology they master to change the route and intensity of the hurricane to avoid the tragedy caused by Katrina again.

The screenwriter connects the plot with Hurricane Katrina.

This summer, Hurricane Katrina has attracted worldwide attention. The catastrophic consequences it has caused are unbearable even by the United States, and its direct economic losses are more than US$200 billion.

Movies are often closely linked to social reality, and Hollywood screenwriters have extremely keen sense of smell.

“Based on what we know.”

In the office, Connie reported to Ronan the latest information: "The scriptwriter Julian Simpson came up with the idea of ​​creating a hurricane script after Hurricane Katrina. It took less than a month to complete the relevant creation."

Ronan asked, "Julian Simpson? This name is very strange."

Connie glanced at the notebook in her hand and said, "This is a 34-year-old female screenwriter and director. She entered the film and television industry in 1997 and directed a British film "Modern Women's Prison". After the new century, she came to Hollywood to work in screenwriters and worked as screenwriters in multiple TV series crews."

She understood the purpose of Ronan's information and focused on it: "Julian Simpson is very familiar with the situation in Hollywood."

Ronan nodded: "It's not a newcomer and a new work."

Connie asked, "This work..."

Ronan looked at the script on his desk and said, "What do you think? This type of film must have a very cliché plot. If you want to make a great shot, you must make a lot of investment in special effects production, but once the investment is too high, the risk will increase."

To be honest, Ronan was a little hesitant.

Connie didn't say much and quietly waited for Ronan to make the decision.

Ronan pondered for a moment and said, "Let's do this, let's get in touch with Julian Simpson first. If the script price is not outrageous, you can buy it and enrich the script library."

The script itself is not expensive, and even if it is not filmed for the time being, you can wait for the future even if you don’t shoot it for the time being.

Connie responded, left the office, and sent work coordination to Shahai Entertainment.

As a woman, Julian Simpson came to Hollywood for a few years and did not do much, nor was it very bad. Generally speaking, it was a small achievement.

After the Hurricane Katrina disaster, she saw the reports on TV. Although she had not received any disasters on the spot, it brought creativity. Then, with the support of a large amount of hurricane data, the inspiration exploded. In less than a month, she completed a disaster film script.

This is the most satisfactory work that Julian Simpson has been in the industry for six years. He even got rid of the relationship of a producer he had worked with and sent the script to the great director Martin Scorsese.

Although Martin Scorsese did not like her script and the price he paid seemed to have become useless, it turned out that none of this was in vain.

Julian Simpson received a call from Shahai Entertainment, who wanted to negotiate with her about the script of "Super Storm".

The script was not long, and he worked in Hollywood for many years and was a very active woman. Julian Simpson was invited by Shahai Entertainment. The first thing he thought about was not the script that could make a movie, but how to maximize the benefits.

"There is no high value for a script alone." Julian Simpson was quite clear-headed and did not think that a mature company like Shahai Entertainment would be shocked when seeing his script, and then offered a bunch of brainless conditions: "As a screenwriter or a female screenwriter, there is actually not much future."

Her agent said: "Julian, Shahai Entertainment is a branch of Relativity Entertainment, if you can get Ronan Anderson's appreciation..."

Julian Simpson looked at the agent: "It's too unreliable to place my future on the appreciation of others?"

The agent knew that Julian Simpson had always been ambitious and was not surprised.

"What do you want to do?" the agent asked first, and then reminded: "That's Shahai Entertainment, Ronan Anderson's company, we can't mess with, don't do stupid things!"

Julian Simpson rolled his eyes and said, "Am I the kind of brainless woman? Why do you want to offend a character like Ronan Anderson? I just want to fight for the benefits as much as possible. Could it be that the script I finally created was sold to Shahai Entertainment for a low price of 20,000 US dollars?"

The agent spread his hands helplessly: "This is the market trend in the industry."

"So, the script is worthless, and even the screenwriter is sad." Julian Simpson obviously had his own idea and said to the agent: "You replied to Shahai Entertainment, saying that I agreed to discuss "Super Storm" with them, but it will take a few days to see you."

The agent immediately responded: "It's no problem."

Julian Simpson continued: "I'm going to write a preliminary production and shooting plan to package Superstorm from a simple script into a movie project."

"This..." The agent was quite surprised.

"This is normal. How much does the script cost? What if it is a project? The bonus alone is at least ten times the script." Julian Simpson said: "Don't forget that when I was in the UK, I also directed a movie. After coming to Hollywood, in addition to being a screenwriter in the TV series, I also served as an executive producer."

The agent nodded slowly: "That's right, these qualifications can increase your persuasion."

Julian Simpson continued: "If I could use Shahai Entertainment's cooperation to successfully shoot and produce "Super Storm", my career would have really started. I will no longer be a screenwriter with a slim future, but a director and producer with an infinitely broad future."

The agent's face also became serious: "This is indeed an opportunity." He said cautiously: "But there is also a possibility that Shahai Entertainment will not cooperate with us."

Julian Simpson is clear-headed: "Indeed, Shahai Entertainment just sent us an invitation to negotiate, and we may have a breakdown. But there are so many film companies in Hollywood, we don't have to cooperate with Shahai Entertainment."

The agent hesitated: "The success effect and great fame of Shahai Entertainment..."

"So, we have to use these." Julian Simpson said: "The invitation from Shahai Entertainment can also become our capital. Even if we can't agree, we can still contact other companies and even increase our own capital."

She reminded: "You can find a way to spread the news to the outside world, and start doing it today. Before we formally discuss with Shahai Entertainment, try to let the relevant news spread in the circle. Shahai Entertainment wants to cooperate with us in the movie project "Super Storm".

The agent thought about it for a while and it was extremely operable and the effect should be good.

Compared to simply selling the script, the profits of doing so may increase ten or even twenty times.

As a 10% gentleman, doubled his income is enough to take huge risks, let alone improve so much.

After the agent left, he immediately called and ran to some public places to spread the news in person.

The next day, Julian Simpson invited friends and colleagues in the circle to party and came to Hollywood for a few years. She worked in several crews and was interested in getting to know and interacting. Although her relationship network can only reach the middle and low levels of Hollywood, it is quite widespread.

The banquet was very pleasant. While drinking and drinking, Julian Simpson seemed to be very unintentionally revealing that her "Super Storm" movie project was appreciated by Shahai Entertainment, and the two sides would have formal negotiations on the project in a few days.

Everyone congratulated each other, each with different moods, with sincere blessings, envy, jealousy, and secretly cursed...

But one thing is that the news spread through a wider population.

Hollywood has always been a circle where news spreads very quickly. Not only does rumors spread amazingly, but they often change every time they pass by a person's mouth, and the direction of change is basically exaggerated.

News related to "Super Storm" was quickly spread by word of mouth, and various expanded versions soon appeared.

For example, Shahai Entertainment attaches great importance to this project and is preparing to buy it with a lot of money.

For example, the two sides are about to reach a lizard, and Shahai Entertainment wants to invest more than 100 million US dollars in shooting and production.

There are even rumors that Ronan Anderson admires Julian Simpson's talent very much.

Although the scope of rumors is not particularly wide due to limited time, it has also flown into the ears of many people and companies who have been paying attention to Relativity Entertainment and Ronan.

Their eyes also stared at Julian Simpson.
