Reborn to Dominate Hollywood

"So, what do you want to do with this script?" Mason asked. Ian didn't understand what he wanted to ask. "I mean, it's only two months until Christmas, and we can sell it for a good price."

During the New Year's holidays, many comedy movies will be screened for families to watch together. It's a great way for studios to make money quickly with a good comedy movie.

"Hmm-" Ian was quickly interrupted.

"I can get someone to introduce me to sell this."

Ian shook his head in response.

"I want it to be produced by Rainer Films, and I want Raina Films to return to its former glory," he sighed heavily, "and it would be a good start." He said what he had to say.

"Hmm... If that's always your plan, I'd give it some thought. Mason leaned back in his chair and continued.

"We need an actor and a director, and we have the company's old production team." He said.

While the idea was perfect, now Mason knew they would face more problems. He really liked the script. However, this doubt lingers, can Rainer Pictures do it, or will Raina Pictures fail.

"What are you thinking, uncle?" Ian asked.

Mason sighed and blurted out. "I'm not sure if this applies to Raina Pictures."

"It only costs a few million dollars. I'm sure it will be a success. Ian said he wasn't sure what else to say to convince Mason to accept the whole idea of the project. Either way, Ian knew it was going to work.

Because in another world, the film cost almost eighteen million dollars, if not more. But that's mostly because they have a high marketing budget. If it weren't for these reasons, even in this new world, this movie could have been easily made for millions of dollars.

Mason had a skeptical look on his face, and Ian was used to it now. This also shows that Mason has doubts about this. Seeing this, Ian was reluctant to explain everything, because he knew that, according to his past memories, the film had earned more than half a billion dollars in a parallel world, and he was confident in that.

He intends to use the money his parents left him to make the film, something that Ian would never do before.

Mason glanced at the script again and shifted his gaze to Ian, "If we're going to do that, you should know that Christmas is running out, and that's going to be the only time this movie can be successful." "Okay. I know some directors — "I

can direct this film." These three words startled Mason at some point.

"Uh-what?" He asked.

"I can direct, uncle."

"If you're serious about this project, you should understand that now is not the time for jokes."

Ian shook his head and said, "You should remember, the only thing my father was proud of me was that I went to Stanford University." "

Of course I do," Mason replied, with obvious disappointment in his voice.

"What you don't know is that I took a course in film directing. And, I've been reading the book for weeks. Ian was confident, spitting white lies out of his mouth. He's reading, it's true.

"Hah—what did you do?" Mason couldn't believe his ears. Ian just nodded in response.

Ian did learn about film directing in his past life as part of his attempts to improve his performance. Becoming an actor has always been a huge dream for Ian, and along with the acting comes movies. It was also his dream to act and direct, and to work as a director later in his career. All in all, he has film director materials in the library in his head, so it's not difficult for him.

"I really don't think so. If you're going to direct, you're ruining a good script. Don't ruin the good things I've seen so hard over the years. Mason told him harshly.

"I know, of course I do. But I wrote this independently myself, and I can assure you that no one knows the story better than I do. Let me do it, uncle. With such a good script, you'll see a good movie from Rainer Pictures years later. Ian straightened up in his chair and insisted.

Mason's head kept shouting, "No way!" Over and over again, but he watched in silence as Ian tried so hard to convince him.

"There won't be anything like you think, this script is mine, I'll direct it." Ian further added.

In Mason's opinion, there are a thousand reasons why Ian couldn't direct the film. But his script and it silenced half of Mason's thoughts.

"I'm not sure, Ian. Do you know how to operate a camera? Or how do you split a scene into several shots? Well? My thinking is that we need a professional. His voice was made louder by frustration, and he held back for a variety of reasons.

"Of course, I know." Ian sighed heavily. "Give me a chance to prove myself."

"Stubborn as always." For the first time, Mason spoke his mind without thinking, and he was unimpressed.

Just trying to get Mason to agree with him, Ian was exhausted. After all, he had no choice but to convince him because he had no connections in the industry. It took him two days to finally get a "yes" from Uncle Mason.

Ian, who is used to being sought after, has to let go of all his pride in order to get Mason to agree with him, the problem is that he doesn't like to pester Mason very much. He has self-esteem after all. But he knew that the previous owner of the body was discredited.

As far as he knew, if this thing worked out, he could handle the rest alone, but as long as he decided to work at Lana's, he would need Mason's help.

He needed the entire crew and distributor that Rainer could provide. But the problem is that Ian doesn't know anyone except Mason. When he's in some sense new to the whole team, his 85% stake makes no sense.

After Mason agreed to do the project, after so many negotiations, and so many negotiations to take place in the near future, Ian asked him to be the producer, and Mason accepted without even thinking about it.

For the past two days, Mason has been fighting Ian fiercely. He has always insisted that someone else be the director of "Home Alone". Weighing the pros and cons, Mason couldn't find a good reason for Ian to direct.

But what ultimately turned the tide was the notebook Ian showed him. It is full of sketches of various scenes. Home Alone with the different storyboards and camera placements.

This is something that professional directors often do, to make their thoughts clear and understandable from the beginning. Impressively, Ian pulled out the right cards when Mason was about to say no. He was impressed by this "amateur", as he called him.

But the challenge doesn't end there. In fact, this is just the beginning. Ian has only $2 million left in his bank account. It's a good thing that the predecessor didn't waste all that money, so Ian is still far from complaining. But it was a huge challenge for him to create Home Alone with just $2 million.

A large part of the success of Home Alone is due to its good plot and excellent performances. It depends on how each actor presents the exact role they are playing. They either succeeded or failed, and there was nothing in between. He thinks the money will be enough because it won't cost much for the actors or filming.
