Chapter 893 Movies that make people drool Chapter 894 "Gone with the Wind" was born!(2/3)

"It's so late, who's looking for me?" I was very puzzled.

"Of course it's someone you know." Jimmy smiled and said, "It's Mr. Fleming."

"Victor Fleming?! Boss, what's the matter with you?" Griffith asked me in surprise.

"Yes, he is now from Thunderbolt Film Company, and I heard that he is doing well in Howard Hughes. Hughes values ​​him very much. Logically speaking, he should be filming "Hell Angel" now. Why did he come to find the boss in the middle of the night? There must be something wrong here." David Ryan touched his bare chin and analyzed.

"Which decree says Victor is not allowed to come to me in the middle of the night?" I put down the pen in my hand, laughed, and said to Jimmy: "Let Victor come in quickly."

"The boss is biased towards Victor Fleming." Stenberg grinned beside him.

He was really right, I was really a bit biased towards Victor Fleming. Although this guy is not from DreamWorks, I have always liked him very much.

It wasn't too late, Victor Fleming walked in, wearing a dress with no visible background, a hat on his head, and a wrinkled bag in his hand.

"Boss, are you disturbing you?" Victor Fleming looked at the room full of people and smiled apologetically.

Although he is not from DreamWorks, he still can't change the habit he developed in DreamWorks.

"Don't disturb, don't disturb. We are listening to Griffiths telling dirty jokes." My words made the room burst into laughter, and Griffith's old face turned red with shame.

"Victor, I'm looking for me so late. Is there something wrong?" I pointed at him and signaled him to sit down.

Victor Fleming took off his hat, sat on the sofa, and nodded.

Jimmy poured him a cup of tea, and he didn't hesitate, took it and drank it in one breath, saying, "Boss. I want to make a great movie this time."

Cough cough. There was a cough in the room.

"Victor. Did you come here in the middle of the night? What other great movie is that you have not finished filming your current "Hell Angel" yet?!" Stenberg jumped up suddenly with an impatient personality.

I waved my hand and slapped him, then turned to Victor Fleming and said, "Victor, your "Hell Angel" has not been completed yet, why do you want to shoot a new movie?"

Victor Fleming smiled and said, "The Hell Angel has been filming since the beginning of the year and has been filming until now. It is estimated that it will be completed this week. Mr. Hughes said he will handle the remaining scattered shots that have not been finished. So I have spared time to shoot another movie."

While saying that Victor Fleming carefully took out a thick script from his dirty bag.

"Boss, this is the script I wrote, and I have revised it with Mr. Hughes many times. I want to bring it here to show you and let you give me some advice." Before Victor Fleming finished speaking, the script at hand was taken away by Griffith next to him.

What Griffith likes to do the most is to grab scripts before others to take a look.

"Victor, do you say that Howard Hughes is involved in this script?" I was very interested in Victor Fleming's words.

It seems that Howard Hughes is really a person who can't sit still.

Victor Fleming nodded and said, "Yes, this script was just an idea at the beginning. When filming "Hell Angel", I often discussed this idea with Mr. Hughes in my spare time. He was very interested in it. Then the two of us began to expand the story and finally wrote a script. After the script was completed, Mr. Hughes was very satisfied, but he thought it would be great if it could be improved, so I came to you and let you see it."

"Victor, you guy is really a little unrighteous." Before Victor Fleming finished speaking, Stenberg rushed over and patted Victor Fleming on the shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Victor Fleming was confused by him.

"What's wrong? I ask you, you are from Leidianhua Film Company now, are you?" Stenberg said angrily.

"yes."

"Leid-Dianhua Film Company and DreamWorks are incompatible, right?"

"yes."

"You said, the boss has directed your movie, but in the end, Lei Dinghua has picked up the cheaper ones, just like Chaplin's "City Light". What are the benefits for us?" Stenberg's words made everyone laugh.

Victor Fleming was very embarrassed. He looked at me and spread his hands and said, "Boss, I naturally know such things. Don't worry, I'm not Chaplin and I've never done such a thing. I discussed this movie with Mr. Hughes. If it can be filmed, it will be invested and filmed by Mr. Hughes's New Line Film Company. It has nothing to do with Lei Dianhua."

Victor Fleming's words made everyone nod. This guy is really a kind person.

"Victor, you said that you will give this script to Howard Hughes to shoot. If the script of this movie is very good, Carrey Rockefeller would agree?" I smiled.

"What can he do if he doesn't agree? At worst, I can fire me. In fact, I don't want to stay in Thunderbolthua at all." Victor Fleming looked at me with a look of relief on his face: "Boss, I think I like the New Line Film Company. This time my cooperation with Mr. Hughes made me feel very good about him, and he also valued me very much. If I go to the New Line, I will feel freer than being in Thunderbolthua."

"Victor, when I asked you to join DreamWorks, you disagreed. You said you didn't want to do something sorry for Chaplin. Why are you joining the new line now?" I asked.

Victor Fleming said: "Boss, I really thought so at the beginning. But now it's different. During this period of time during Lei Dianhua, I have done a lot of things for Lei Dianhua, which can be regarded as repaying Mr. Chaplin's kindness. There is nothing wrong with Lei Dianhua. Moreover, Lei Dianhua is too intriguing. I am not suitable for such an environment. I don't like it. The new line is different. The company is very simple, and Mr. Hughes is also very wise."

"Victor, you are a bitch. Is it better for our DreamWorks as good as the new line?" Stenberg shouted.

Victor shook his head and said, "That's not what I mean. Although I want to leave Lei Dianhua, I can't join DreamWorks immediately. Even if I do that, it makes sense. In the eyes of others, I can be considered a person who has turned against me. I don't want to do this. Besides, my feelings for DreamWorks will never change."

"Victor, I will be satisfied with your words." Looking at Victor Fleming's sincere face, I smiled.

"Bitch! That's great!" Just as we were talking, there was a crackling sound, and then a scream came from the office, which made everyone's eardrums tremble.

A group of people turned around and found that Griffith, who was standing beside him, cracked a small coffee table in front of him, and held Victor Fleming's script with one hand, his eyes wide open as if a hungry wolf was staring at the flesh bones.

"David, are you nervous?" Stenborough reached out and touched Griffith's forehead.

Griffith pushed Sdenburg away, strode to me, stuffed the script in his hand into my arms, and shouted, "Boss, okay! OK! OK!"

Three good words were said in succession, Griffith looked at me, his eyes red.

"What's good?" I was confused.

"The script is good! The script is great!" Griffith laughed, like a lunatic.

He was so shocked that I was almost heart attacked by him.

"A script can make you like this... God of my land!" I took the script casually, but when I saw the name on it, I couldn't help but scream.

"What's wrong, boss, you're damn, too!" Stenberg said in a daze.

I waved my hand and pulled Victor Fleming over: "Victor, you can definitely shoot this movie too!"

Why did this movie make me so excited?! Why did this script make Griffith, a local script that has been viewed in countless scripts!?

It's very simple, because there is a small line of words on this script: "Gone with the Wind"!

In later generations, you can tell others that you don’t know who Spielberg is, you can tell others that you don’t know which Griffith is, you can tell others that you haven’t watched “Jurassic Park”, you can even say that you don’t know that the president of the United States is the WHO, but if you tell others that you have never heard of “Gone with the Wind”, then in the eyes of others, you will be an absolute stick!

It is the most proud blockbuster film in Hollywood film history. The film has been screened for 4 hours. Its charm has lasted throughout the 20th century and its influence has expanded over time!

It is known as the "No. 1 Movie" in Hollywood. During the filming, the director was changed several times. More than 60 major actors and more than 9,000 supporting actors appeared on the screen. At the 12th Academy Awards, it won eight multiple awards in one fell swoop, causing a sensation in the entire American film industry!

It creates a miracle, an unprecedented miracle! It is the perfect representative of the Golden Age of Hollywood!

How could such a movie not move me, and how could it not make Griffith crazy!

"Boss, this script is not perfect, there are many things worth modifying, so I hope you can make modifications." Victor Fleming was a little flattered.

"Let me see what this script is like." Stenborough took the script and a group of people hugged each other and started reading it. After reading it, all of these guys stopped talking.

"Victor. Don't say that, you really wrote a good script!" Stenberg grinned with the script, then said, "Victor, I think your script should be invested in the shooting of our DreamWorks."

Stenberg's words made Griffith and others nodded together.

Everyone knows that this script is a good script, and they also know which film company will win both fame and fortune when shooting this movie. It is such a big advantage. The people of DreamWorks naturally want to take it themselves.

"I'm afraid this is not good." Victor Fleming shook his head: "I have promised Mr. Hughes. If he goes back on his word, it will be too unfaithful."

Stenberg said, "Victor, think about it, if DreamWorks invested in shooting this movie, it would have an advantage over the new line film company. First of all, DreamWorks' assets are much larger than the new line. When making movies, you can completely guarantee the quality of your movie. Second, DreamWorks has a huge earth screening system. Your movies can not only be screened across the United States, but also go to Europe. Third, DreamWorks' reputation is much greater than the new line. With our advantage, "Gone with the Wind" will definitely achieve greater results."

Steinberg's words made everyone persuade Victor Fleming in unison.

But no matter how everyone persuaded him, Victor Fleming just didn't nod and agreed. He turned to me and said, "Boss, this script contains Mr. Hughes's hard work. I have promised him that he can't speak without trust."

"Hahahaha." Looking at Victor Fleming, I immediately laughed.

If he didn't do this, he wouldn't be Victor Fleming.

"Victor, I agree with your idea. Take the new line and take them to take a photo, but if you encounter any problems, you can come to me." I patted Victor Fleming's shoulder and cast an encouraging look.

Victor Fleming was so grateful that he couldn't speak.

Griffith secretly pulled the corner of my clothes in the dark, and he understood that he was complaining that I had done something stupid.

In their opinion, I saw a foolish thing, and I missed such a good opportunity in vain.

But I have my own ideas. First of all, I know Victor Fleming, who is a loyal man and absolutely cannot do something unfaithful, so it is unlikely that he will give "Gone with the Wind" to our DreamWorks to invest in filming.

Second, and most importantly, if this movie is left to DreamWorks to invest in filming, it may not be as brilliant as history.

Why" is very simple, the actor alone is the problem.

To some extent, the reason why this movie is successful has a lot to do with the two actors, who are Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh. They are the soul of the entire movie. If they lose them, "Gone with the Wind" is not itself.

If DreamWorks wants to invest in the filming of this movie, Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh Ding cannot be the starring actors. Clark Gable is now the pillar of Columbia Film Company. As a local ally of Thunderbolt Hua Film Company, Columbia is absolutely impossible to help DreamWorks. Vivien Leigh was originally a first-line star of MGM Film Company, but now it is the pillar of Sissy Dimil's Babylon Film Company. Because of "Gladiator", Sissy Dimil fell into a big deal with me, how could it help me?

If Gone with the Wind were not there, "Gone with the Wind" would not be "Gone with the Wind", so in order to fulfill this classic movie, I had to give up the huge cake to Howard Hughes's new line film company.

Howard Hughes is an absolute centrist in Hollywood, so if he invests in the filming of this movie, he can easily borrow Clark Gable from Columbia and then dig Vivien Leigh from Sissy Dimil. In this way, the movie will be more than half successful.

How could Griffith and others think of this principle? "Victor, come on, let's study it together and make good changes for you." I pointed to the chair next to the desk. Victor Fleming sat down, and I began to modify the script bit by bit.

The script is very thick, but because Victor Fleming has basically finished the manuscript, it is revised very quickly.

This movie has a basic framework, but in many places, it cannot be compared with the funeral "Gone with the Wind", so I helped Victor Fleming add and modify a lot of things, and the heaviestly makes the movie become vivid and three-dimensional. Victor Fleming himself admires my modifications.

"Tell Hughes, let him invest in this movie, which will make his new film company exhale in Hollywood from now on." When it was dawn, we modified the script, and I looked at Victor Fleming in a firm tone.

"Boss, thank you so much!" Victor Fleming was so grateful that he didn't know what to say.

Perhaps he himself wouldn't have expected that I would agree to help him revise the script so happily, which was a thankless job.

"Victor, if you want to make this movie well, I think there are some things you have to know," I whispered.

"Boss, you said." Victor Fleming was respectful.
