Chapter 39 Fist
"Are you sure that fat man is talking about Christopher Culkin?"
Rubbing his cheeks, Roland, who let go of his drowsiness, repeated the other party's na.
"What? Do you know this guy?"
Mohamy, who had already sat down, picked up the mineral water, raised his head and took a sip before continuing his words, "When I was inquiring about the news, I could clearly feel that the guy's tone was full of indifference." Judging from his words, Christopher should not be from the entertainnt circle, right?"
"Besides, I also heard that this matter was finally settled by your producer John Hughes."
"The Fox production director you told yesterday seems to be unable to control this kind of thing."
The production director sent by Fox, of course, can't handle this kind of thing!
Although Roland didn't know the guy nad Christopher Culkin, if he put the surna Culkin and John Hughes together, Roland could guess sothing inside.
Because, the original star of "Ho Alone", Macaulay, is surnad Culkin!
And this guy nad Christopher should be Macaulay's father!
Macaulay's father ca to seek justice for his son?
this…
Seems a bit too late, doesn't it?
The contract has been signed, and the crew has already started filming. It is really unwise to co to do things at this ti!
And when Roland was frowning and guessing the inside story, two middle-aged n were sitting opposite each other in a coffee shop in Burbank. The guy with blond hair and shawls put his hands on the table and stared at him with burning eyes. The person at the table, and the man with the round-fra glasses, picked up the coffee cup calmly, took a sip, and frowned, as if he felt that the taste was not right, so he directly picked up the unfinished sugar cube and continued Throw it into the cup.
The blond shawl curled his mouth as the sugar cube bottod out.
"John, your taste has not changed, you still like sweets."
"But the doctor said you have a bad heart and told you to eat less sweets."
With such words, the man in glasses who was stirring the coffee raised his head, and when his face appeared in the sight of the blond man, the na John Hughes was ready to co out, "Kit, I have so habits, it's not so easy to change .”
"Besides, we earn so much money, we don't throw it to doctors for no reason, and let them monitor our health."
“What they have to do is to make our lives better while ensuring our preferences.”
"Instead of being the sa as the elders, let's not eat this, don't drink that..."
"So you're like Warren Buffett, drink the Coke first, and then let the doctor fix the problem?"
John Hughes' words made the guy nad Kit laugh.
However, the kind laughter didn't last long, and he changed the subject and complained, "Then why don't you extend this habit to film projects? First finalize the candidates, and then let the director solve the problem, isn't it Can't you?"
That's right, this guy who was affectionately called Kit by John Hughes was the Christopher Culkin that Mohamy called, and he didn't co to seek justice for his son, as Roland thought. To be fair, I asked my old friend who I have known for many years for an explanation, "John, you promised Macaulay back then that you would let him be the leading actor."
"Do you rember what you said back then?"
"Oh, dear, the inspiration for this movie is from you."
"No one is more suitable for this role than you."
"The role of Kevin was created for you. Don't worry, you will be notified when the crew is set up."
Christopher Culkin looked affectionately at his old friend opposite, the singing voice was similar to a stage play, which made John Hughes raise his eyebrows. However, before he could respond, Ben still recalled fondly Calkin's face changed instantly, and frustration also erged spontaneously, "But now? What Macaulay got is indeed a deep disappointnt."
"Do you know how sad he was when he learned that the filming of "Ho Alone" had already started?"
"He held the newspaper and stood timidly at the door of my study, not daring to take a step further."
"He hugged the door fra, with a sad face, and asked ."
"Uncle John, do you not like him anymore?"
"Did he do sothing wrong? Otherwise, why would Uncle John find soone else to play?"
"He said that he has been in the industry for six years, and he doesn't know why he would be compared to a newcor."
The pathetic voice and emotional words, if they are put on the Oprah show, it will definitely be a scene of tears bursting.
He told his own story with great emotion, and explained his own experiences in an 'impartial' way. If that's all, that's fine. question.
If John Hughes, the audience, is replaced by another ordinary person, then he may have begun to wonder whether there is an unknown shady transaction in the whole project, but—John Hughes is the person involved!
Put down the coffee spoon, smile on the cheek.
When he looked at Culkin with playful eyes, the smile hidden in the corner of his eyes made Culkin a little annoyed.
"John, what do you an?"
"ans nothing."
"I just think your acting skills have improved a lot compared to before."
John Hughes opened his handbag with a smile, found the glasses cloth, took off his glasses deftly, and wiped the lenses.
"You said such a big deal, what do you want to express?"
"Macauley was so disappointed that he didn't get the role that he couldn't sleep?"
"Do not make jokes."
"Do you think Macaulay's role has been taken away?"
"Then why didn't you co to when I called to tell you?"
"You jumped out at this ti, didn't you just want to get a substitute project from ?"
"I've known you for so many years, I don't know what you think?"
When John Hughes put his glasses back on, was there any sadness on Culkin's face?
As John Hughes said, when he ca back this ti, he just hoped to get the project from his old friend.
Why didn't he show up when the project was taken away by Roland?
Calkin, who used to be in the circle, is not a fool. The guy who can make John Hughes abandon his son must have his own advantages. He will not end well with this kind of guy. In this way, forbearance Waiting becos natural.
and other projects have been established, the crew has started filming, and he is jumping out.
Is it too late by now?
No…
Now is the right ti.
As long as he entangles with the crew in the na of shady, then John Hughes will definitely satisfy his request.
There is no other reason, because any crew does not want to cause trouble and black material during filming.
Although everything Culkin said may be irrelevant, it would be unlucky if those words were thrown at dia reporters. Chris Columbus, a young man promoted by Steven Spielberg, bullied others, forcibly rejected the choice of producer John Hughes, and promoted the newcor, which is enough-of course, their reports can't be like this It's explicit, but don't expect these bitch-raised guys to say anything good. They may not drag Spielberg into the water, but these guys who sll the news will definitely dig deep into the crew. In the end, Even if these people only dug out a little bit of content, such as 'John Hughes' influence is not as large as the rookie Chris Columbus', or 'All the guys on the crew were invited by Chris Columbus ', these news alone are enough for the guys in the crew to drink a pot.
At that ti, Chris Columbus would naturally leave the public with an image of being a dog.
And John Hughes?
How can there be any prestige of a youth film master!
It's just a cowardly rat.
Of course, Calkin would never do such a deadly thing unless it was absolutely necessary.
but-
You can't bet everything on the other party.
Give him what he wants and tell him to shut up.
This is what Culkin wants to pursue.
All he wants is a movie project, a movie project that can make his son earn money quickly.
pity-
John Hughes doesn't want to be threatened by the opponent.
Looking at the calm old friend, John Hughes thought of the past.
Christopher Calkin is an insatiable guy, and after eting his requirents, he will only expect more.
Ever since John Hughes learned that Christopher Culkin disregarded the feelings of the children and let all his children embark on the road of acting to enrich his pockets, he no longer wanted to be with this kind of person, We continued to communicate.
"You should be very thankful you didn't argue when I called you."
"Do you think you can't afford to provoke Roland Allen?"
"You're right."
"You can now go out and find the news dia and tell things according to your ideas."
"Look at a few people who will report directly according to what you said."
John Hughes' words made Christopher Culkin frown, and when he was pondering the aning of his old friend's words, John Hughes said to himself again, "You know that taking the role Who recomnded Roland Allen?"
"His resu was sent to the crew by Robin Williams."
"Do you know who asked the director and leading actor in the crew to teach him before the filming started?"
"It's Robert Zeckis."
"dia reporters will love your revelations very much."
"After all, of these two, one is now competing for Best Actor, and the other's "Back to the Future 3" will be released this year."
"You go out to find the dia now, and we can make headlines tomorrow."
"There is such a publicity, Fox and I also want to thank you."
Before the words fell, John Hughes smiled and nodded at the other party.
Without saying much, he picked up his handbag, turned around and left.
However, when he left, he also took out a few twenty-denomination dollars and put them under the coffee saucer.
That kind of deanor made Christopher Culkin's face darken instantly.
"Wait." Seeing that John Hughes was about to leave, Culkin shouted imdiately.
"Huh?" John Hughes slanted his body and looked at him with a smile on his face. "Is there anything else, Kit?"
"you sure?"
The incongruous question made the smile on John Hughes's face even bigger. He shrugged and said in a low voice: "Of course."
"The current filming location of the crew was provided by Roland Allen's guardian. If you don't believe it, you can inquire about it yourself."
An affirmative answer made Culkin nod his head.
Taking a deep breath, he retracted all the threatening words in his mind, and Calkin showed a formulaic smile on his face.
He ca here this ti because he wanted to get so roles suitable for his son from John Hughes.
Because he needs his son to make money for himself, it is impossible for him to let his son give up acting on this path.
but now-
Threatening and stalking thods are obviously unusable.
No one will offend the Jewish gang while continuing to mix circles.
Vin Diesel, who was the first to sell a film in the mourning hall, has attracted so many people in the circle, such as Pierce Brosnan, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Wen Ziren... Just the nas of big nas can write It's a whole book, but even so, he didn't go to the Jewish gang mbers. This may be due to Spielberg's kindness, but it is an indisputable fact that the Jewish gang is powerful.
If he still wants his son to beco a money printing machine, then Calkin can’t break the news casually, and once he gives up breaking the news...
Then he can only be a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
Looking at the back of John Hughes who was gradually moving away, Culkin gritted his teeth, feeling a little uncomfortable.
A project with an investnt of 15 million! The big nas are the escorts!
What a great opportunity!
that's all…
Gone…
But so what?
Find the real person PK of the opponent to vent your anger?
Do not make jokes.
Fist can indeed solve many problems, but in many cases, the fist that solves the problem is not the real fist.
There may be conflicts among all people, but confronting them directly, fighting with fists, and cursing are really too low-level.
Besides, he can't do this for nothing but money.
Pick up the coffee, raise your neck, and gulp it down.
For Culkin, this arrival was a failure.
Because he hasn't started to say harsh words yet, John Hughes has already made him give up all plans.
But on the other hand, his action was also successful.
Because he knew who the guy who snatched the project from his son was...
Since Roland Allen is about the sa age as his own son, there will still be many opportunities for contact in the future.
In the future, when selecting projects, if he continues to bump into Roland Allen, then he won't have to waste ti on those projects.
And ti, for him, is money.
As long as you have money, what else is it?
Note: ①Macauley’s father loves money very much. The family’s food and clothing are all earned by Macaulay and his brother. He also has a brother nad Kieran Culkin, who is also a child actor. When the couple broke up, Kieran Culkin's father took half of the more than two million dollars in his na. The most amazing thing is that Macaulay's father also challenged Fox, and Fox refused to let Macaulay When he was the protagonist of "Dangerous Little Angels", he refused to let Macaulay shoot "Ho Alone 2". Of course, the most important thing is that he asked Fox for five million. ②The selling of films in the mourning hall was not the first initiative of Mr. Liu. In 2013, when Paul Walker died in a car accident, Fan flew to Paul’s mother’s house on the sa day, and wept bitterly in front of reporters, expressing that his good brother was very sad without him, and he also specifically said , Paul told him before his death that his greatest wish was to film "The Fast and the Furious" to the tenth part. Fan said on the spot that he would fulfill his wish no matter what. Of course, this is all bullshit. Paul sued the production crew when the first two films were fild, because the series was originally for the disc market, and the disc market revenue was not as transparent as the box office. Because of the dividend, Paul had trouble. ③Fan had **** off Pierce Brosnan as early as "Xx Agent", because he had Tom Hanks and Spielberg behind him, and Wen Ziren fild "Super 7" instead of "Super 8" "The reason is that Fan is too big a brand. The Hollywood Reporter reported that Universal offered 7 million plus North Arican box office share (not revenue share), but Wen Ziren didn't accept it. He didn't want to cooperate with Fan.
