Before officially returning to the studio, Renly called Andy to learn about Rooney's Best Actress at Cannes.

"Obviously I'm out of society," Renly smiled helplessly and bitterly.

Afterwards, Renly informed Andy of his decision that he was not going to take over acting work for the next period of time - including David Fincher's "Mind Hunter", but was going to return to the studio, record the next album, and take over the next album. I will further prepare for the folk music festival and focus on music work in a short period of time.

Andy didn't worry or object. Instead, he let out a long breath and agreed. At least, this is much better than being depressed at home without knowing the years; moreover, Renly can find passion in music, which is also the best news, everything else can be negotiated slowly.

However, Renly also understands David Fincher's predicament, and in a recent interview at Cannes -- one of his favorite directors to work with is David Fincher, it's true; he sincerely hopes the director can Maintaining strong creativity, Renly nodded and agreed to the nominal producer, and Sisyphus Pictures officially began production of this work.

For Sisyphus Pictures, which is in the initial stage of development, both "Stranger Things" and "Sin Night Run" are currently in production. It is actually very risky to start the production of the third series rashly - no one knows about these two series. Whether the episode will be successful, and no one is sure if Mind Hunter will be successful.

Renly "doesn't know" about running the company, only art making, and a layman-like decision could well destroy Sisyphus Pictures.

But in fact, Andy nodded, Andre and Arthur also nodded, and the preliminary preparations for "Mind Hunter" finally started again after two years.

Part of the reason is Andre's unconditional trust in Renly. He believes in Renly's vision and judgment, and he also believes in Renly's rationality. Otherwise, there are so many projects in Hollywood, and Renly would not be able to agree to every friend's project. David Fincher, there must be a reason for Renly.

Another reason is that "female spies" make money.

Maybe it's too early to talk about "making money". After all, the movie has just been released, and the opening weekend did not show a "dark horse"-style explosion, but the overall situation is very positive and optimistic——

75 points in the media comprehensive review, 95% in the Rotten Tomatoes freshness index, 81% in the popcorn index, and the theater score is as high as "a". It is a rare event. Although the popcorn index is slightly detrimental to the box office prospects, the overall word-of-mouth feedback is still very gratifying. In the absence of heavyweight movies before and after the summer season, the prospects are generally optimistic. .

The opening weekend box office was 29 million US dollars, not a big explosion, but the performance was still good, basically the same as the performance of "Dragon Tiger Youth Team", "Big Belly", "Evil Boss", "Bridesmaid" and other recent performances The results of the good comedy works in the opening weekend, coupled with the excellent word-of-mouth performance, the follow-up performance is indeed bright.

Of course, there are still uncertainties.

Compared to a comedy movie, the production cost of $65 million is indeed a bit high, which also means that it is more difficult to make a profit only through the box office - at least 200 million at the global box office is needed, even if it is to achieve such a goal, Profit margins are also relatively narrow, but this is acceptable.

As the first commercial film of Sisyphus Films, the loopholes in cost control are very obvious. As everyone said at the beginning, Andre is a "rich young master", and he is a layman. He has no understanding of the film production industry. With a swipe of the pen, he passed such a heavyweight project without considering the benefit ratio at all. In the future development path, Andre still has a lot to learn.

However, the "female spy" still has the possibility of profit-the possibility is very high, coupled with the excellent reputation of the media, and even the acclaim, which once again proves one thing: Sisyphus Pictures is in the quality of the finished product. The level has withstood the first test, continuing the level it has always been.

For investors, this can undoubtedly increase their confidence, further expand investment, and add more chips to Sisyphus Films; for audiences, it can also increase their interest, even without Renly, Sisyphus The works of the film industry are also worthy of entering the cinema.

From this level, "female spy" undoubtedly got off to a good start.

It is precisely because of this that Andre nodded very readily and agreed. The pre-operational procedures for "Mind Hunter" were officially launched, and the third TV series of Sisyphus Pictures was officially put on the agenda.

When David Fincher found out, his first reaction was stunned.

Although he came to find Renly through Andy, the essence was to hope that Renly could promote the progress of the project; but he never imagined that it was so simple, the speed of the whole thing, he couldn't imagine——

He has long been accustomed to the long waiting time ranging from a month to half a year, and the end of the waiting may be a perfunctory answer. After all, Hollywood's production system still comes first, and it has already formed a self-contained system, even if it is an assembly line operation, it is not so easy.

Now it's so easy and so easy to advance at Sisyphus Films, and for whatever reason, David has to accept it.

From "Boom Drummer" and "Nightcrawler" to "Sin Night"

Run", and then to "Mind Hunter", Sisyphus Pictures is indeed following its own principles:

Really focus on projects that have ideas and creativity, get rid of the influence of the Hollywood industry, and make a small contribution to the independent art field. Although there are also projects such as "Female Spy" and "Stranger Things" that conform to the mainstream, they still cannot change the persistence of Sisyphus.

Sundance veterans such as Robert Redford and the Coen Brothers have consistently emphasized that Renly is not Steven Spielberg—no positive or negative connotation, except that when DreamWorks was founded, the There were too many interfering factors, which led to the final failure of the concept of the three bigwigs; and now that Renly is more pure and more focused, Sisyphus Pictures may really be able to create miracles.

Now, David finally understands the meaning of this sentence - and he can finally understand why even Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks are willing to stand for Renly.

Maybe he should tell David Lynch to try his luck with Renly?

David Lynch is also almost unemployed now. He has been trying to start the "Twin Peaks" TV series project, slowing down the stories that were not told back then, slowing down his mind, but his thoughts It is incompatible with the idea and the social network with the faster and faster pace of life. How can any company be willing to invest?

Even cable TV stations like hbo seem to be tied down.

Does this mean...the Hollywood film industry still has a silver lining?

David Fincher didn't want to jump to conclusions like that, or the disappointment would only come faster and harder, but... Renly? Might be worth watching.

Naturally, Renly had no way of knowing about David Fincher's complicated ideas, nor did he know that the project promotion of "Mind Hunter" had quietly moved a corner of Hollywood. Some changes happened quietly, and then, the wheel of history Just move on. After hanging up Andy, Renly called Rooney.

Rooney is also on vacation.

After leaving Cannes, Rooney took the train or bus all the way, slowly heading north, and finally stopped in Copenhagen. Away from the hustle and bustle of the spotlight and the entanglement of work, let yourself relax and enjoy a rare moment of leisure time.

Renly's belated "winning congratulations" made Rooney laugh happily, "Dear Mr. Renly-Hall, I thought we didn't care about that at all." When Renly won the Oscar at the beginning of the year , Rooney has no special blessing, everything is normal.

Obviously, Rooney didn't care, she was more worried about Renly's recent state, "Maybe, you should divert your attention." She felt that Renly, Paul, Ryan and the others went to Tahiti for a surfing vacation. Make the right choice and let the whole person relax. Movies are not the whole of life.

Rooney is more in favor of Renly's previous lifestyle. Between each work and each work, Renly often gives herself a long vacation to relax, rock climbing, surfing, skydiving, hiking, etc.; but in recent years, Renly's work Getting busier and busier, especially the founding of Sisyphus Pictures, took up Renly's leisure time, which made Renly more and more tense, and Rooney still hoped that Renly could slow down again.

This time, for example, there was no need to rush back to New York at all.

Rooney's tense nerves completely relaxed when she learned that Renly was about to return to the studio, "I'll look forward to it."

While it's work, Renly's attention has been temporarily diverted, allowing himself to take a short break from the environment of the film, which helps to relax and to think.

"You record well in New York, and I will take a good vacation in Northern Europe. After I go back, I will help you prepare for the folk music festival. I think this is a good plan." Rooney's voice revealed a little cheerfulness.

And just like that, studio life began.

At this time, four full years have passed since the release of "Don Quixote", which seems to be a matter of a previous life, which is really too far away.

Although I decided to immediately start the recording of the second album, it is not possible to roll up my sleeves and go straight to battle. Before entering the studio, there is still very, very important work to be done:

Determine the tone of the album, determine the concept of the album.

In fact, it is the concept of creation. After integrating an artistic concept, you can start to organize the tracks. This is equivalent to the soul of the entire album, similar to the concept of "Don Quixote"; lack of soul, even if the entire album is recorded , that's just an ordinary slobber song, and it's definitely not the album Renly hoped to make.

There is a lot of prep work.
