Chapter 3 Script
"Returning to Australia?" Ryan asked, puzzled
The most important thing is to find a suitable film, one in which both he and Nicole can star together, to commemorate the special bond between the two of them
Who could have imagined that plans would always fall behind the rapid changes? Not only did he encounter the fate of the remarkably different Nicole Kidman, but he also followed her to London, where they would reside for the next two years. It would be a disservice to their meeting on the Hollywood Walk of Fame if he did not incorporate this industry chain, which had created over one hundred billion dollars in value in a past life, into his grasp.
It is well known that it is extremely difficult for newcomers to make a name for themselves in Hollywood, and even more so for new screenwriters. Without connections or intermediaries, it is challenging to secure investment from film companies for your script
However, what Ryan most wanted to visit was another place. After much persistence, Nicole finally took him to King's Cross Station.
A woman who surprised Ryan
Transforming the images in one's mind into the written words of a script is not an easy task for a novice. He revised his drafts multiple times, even setting aside matters related to Harry Potter. Fortunately, his talent in this lifetime is indeed remarkable; at the very least, he is not inferior to that overweight man who sells videotapes when it comes to scriptwriting.
"That will be all, Mr. Henry. Do not forget that our contract has expired." Given Nicole's aloof personality, she certainly would not show him any courtesy and directly asked him to leave
Anna walked down the stairs and arrived in front of the wine rack, selecting a bottle of red wine
Since he chose to use the script as a stepping stone, he naturally did not want to be just an ordinary screenwriter. In Hollywood, any profession, when you reach the pinnacle, will make you a powerful figure in this circle
What is the foundation of a film? Many would choose the script, just as with *illustrated* books. However, aside from a few top-tier screenwriters, the status of ordinary screenwriters in this industry is far lower than one might imagine
For the time being, this is all he can do. He sighed. Over the past three months, Nicole had returned several times, but she had not discovered that he was writing a script. Ryan also had no intention of telling her; everything would be discussed when they returned to Los Angeles.
Moreover, he also holds a heavyweight bargaining chip in his hand—Jurassic Park
Science fiction films are best avoided. He is indifferent, but Nicole, who is already somewhat stunningly beautiful, would surely be reduced to a mere decorative role by entering Hollywood through this type of movie
"That is my dream," Nicole said softly, ruffling Ryan's hair. "What am I telling a little brat like you for? By the way, Ryan, I will be going back to Australia soon, so you better not cause any trouble in London."
Indeed, the increasingly unscrupulous Ryan has set his sights on his next target, Harry Potter. Originally, this series was not part of his plans. Such a novel, rich in British charm, is difficult to write without having lived in the UK. He certainly does not wish to invite trouble upon himself
As for whether Aunt Rowling will commit suicide due to hunger and cold in the future, that is beyond his consideration, after all, she is not Nicole Kidman, she owes him nothing and has no relationship with him whatsoever
Nicole, do you want to go to Hollywood now
I have been performing in stage plays for over a year and do not wish to continue; I want to return to the big screen. Nicole calmly explained.
Ryan, with a sullen expression, stomped down the stairs and said sternly, "Next time you are rude to a lady, what comes crashing down will not be a pencil, but a lead ball"
Nicole returned to Australia, and Ryan simply had the nanny impersonate Nicole to call the school and request an extended leave. What they are about to do is extremely important for their future.
As the saying goes, good gatherings lead to good partings, but this man's character is truly lacking. Ryan remembers very clearly that on several occasions, if it weren't for Nicole's cleverness, she might have been sold out by him.
Hey! You little rascal!" The man rubbed his forehead and stood up, appearing as if he wanted to take action
This is the most famous train station of the past, serving as the starting point for the magical journey of the little wizard
Ha... the man laughed mockingly, "I know, you've always wanted to go to Hollywood, but you're too naive. Do you really think there are opportunities everywhere there? Ah... perhaps with your beauty you could exchange for..."
As long as he wishes, he is a quintessential little gentleman
In order to correct the bad habits developed during his two lifetimes in the welfare institution, he also asked Nicole to invite a strict British etiquette teacher, and spent a full year training in his spare time, during which he developed a certain level of habit in etiquette
Additionally, the relationship between the young boy and the single mother resembles the bond between him and Nicole, which is both sisterly and maternal, making it easier for the two to immerse themselves in the narrative
Sitting in the room, Ryan was turning the colored pencils when suddenly he heard the sound of Nicole arguing with a man from downstairs. He simply put down the sketch he was working on and quietly walked out of the room.
Having experienced the information explosion of a past life, he is well aware that the glamorous circle is not as beautiful as it appears on the surface, and it is a male-dominated environment. Nicole is alone there, and it is extremely difficult for her to secure a significant role. Is she to once again throw herself into the arms of Tom Cruise? He absolutely does not allow such things to happen.
Act 1, Scene 1. Time: Evening. Setting: A dimly lit basement.
In addition, he has written several short and medium-length stories, some original and some plagiarized. The publisher has simply decided to compile them together with previously published short and medium-length works, preparing to publish a collection titled "The Ryan Stories"
The first three volumes of Harry Potter had already been written and revised. After 1988, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was officially published, but, like in the previous life, it did not cause a sensation
Oh dear
It is worth noting that this book has remained at the top of the American bestseller list for over thirty weeks since it surged to the first position in 1987. The reaction that would ensue if its young author were to step into the spotlight is certainly imaginable
Only when the time comes to use the books does one regret having too few. Although he possesses remarkable talent, he has not yet become so arrogant as to think he knows everything. He has begun to frequently visit bookstores and libraries, bringing back a large number of books on scripts and films
Whoosh ... ...
It is evident that Ryan belongs to this category of individuals; however, he also has a coping strategy, which is the script naval warfare tactic. With one writing experience under his belt, he can write much faster the next time he puts pen to paper. If a script is submitted and receives no response, he will submit a second, a third, or even eight or ten.
In the following year and more, Nicole immersed herself in theater productions. Ryan attended a few performances and discovered that Nicole Kidman's acting was far superior to when she first entered Hollywood.
A colored pencil flew down the stairs
Nicole quickly stood in front of Ryan, determined not to let anyone harm the person most important to her. "Henry, please leave; otherwise, I will call the police"
A film crew has extended an invitation to me, um... "Crossing the Horizon" m.hetushu.com.com !
"Dear, you are too reckless." When only they remained in the living room, Nicole embraced Ryan in her arms
In fact, Ryan chose a thriller film "The Sixth Sense," which is a classic movie released in 1999. It achieved both box office success and critical acclaim, garnering several Oscar nominations. Notably, the film blurs the temporal context and reflects one of the mainstream values since the 1980s—family, kinship, and communication.
The man speaking, Ryan, knows Nicole's agent... No, it should be her former agent. He heard Nicole say that the contract between them has expired and she does not intend to renew it.
Returning to the big screen? The corners of the man's mouth curled into a mocking smile
Ryan reviewed the script; after three whole months, he finally produced the first draft. He believed that there were not many issues with the descriptions of the scenes and characters, but there were quite a few flaws in the division of shots.
For a long time, Ryan has only written novels. Now he is about to start preparing a script. In his previous life, due to his profession, he had read quite a few movie scripts and has some understanding of how scripts should be written
In 1988, a major writers' strike erupted in Hollywood, leading to improved compensation; however, Ryan was well aware that in a few years, they would once again be cast aside.
As the early winter season sets in, London has begun a stretch of continuous rainy weather. Ryan has not seen the sun for over half a month. After having dealt with a few troublemakers at school, Nicole has been repeatedly summoned by the principal, resulting in his unfortunate house arrest.
Ryan was not satisfied with this; while continuously revising the script of "The Sixth Sense," he also wrote down the outlines and settings of some classic films from his memory. This was done to prevent forgetting, as those images had been etched in his mind like a picture book for years, but it is always wise to be prepared.
Why terminate the contract? Also, why decline the invitation from the Royal Shakespeare Company, which is supported by the royal family? The man's attitude was very poor as he questioned Nicole
Moreover, the structure of this film is peculiar, employing a grand trick at both the beginning and the end. This kind of creativity has become overused in the new century, but in this era, it was undoubtedly a novel idea
Having arrived in London, this renowned metropolis, it is only natural to embark on a tour. The footprints of Ryan and Nicole can be found at Big Ben, the River Thames, the Victoria Tower, and the Palace of Westminster
Movies are greatly influenced by the social environment. Bringing some classic films from the past into the present is likely to encounter failure. Among all film genres, the ones least constrained by the times are undoubtedly horror-thriller films and those that are detached from reality, such as science fiction.
As for himself, life is dull and uninteresting; classroom time is devoted to the pen, while after school he exercises and studies various knowledge that will greatly benefit his future
Although the script is ready, the situation remains quite severe. He is not naive enough to believe that simply mailing the script to the film company will result in them rushing to embrace him; that is merely a fantasy.
Very well! In pursuit of our shared dream, I should make formal preparations
In the early summer of 1989, just as Ryan was planning to make over ten copies of the script to send to major film companies in Hollywood, Nicole Kidman, who had been busy in Australia with "Horizons", returned to London, bringing along her new agent.
Moreover, the life and death of the British have nothing to do with him
The man clutched his forehead and let out a cry of agony
Hollywood! Back in the room, Ryan wrote this line heavily on the sketch.
