Hollywood What If

Chapter 323

Since Kazir knew the future, he obviously wanted to keep the name of the TV show as Game of Thrones. He would have to fight George R.R. Martin if he had to.

"Game Of Thrones, huh... I like that. Compared to A Song Of Ice And Fire, it runs smooth on my tongue."

Stella said her opinion and most of the people in the meeting room agreed with her. Besides, Kazir was the boss and they didn't want to confront him about the name of the TV show.

They trusted Kazir. They knew that Kazir would never make a mistake, he was the most talented director in the show business.

Game of Thrones or A Song of Ice and Fire? The answer was obvious, Game of Thrones was the better title. At least that title was enough for the audience to understand what they might see in the show. A bloody game to control the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros and sit on the Iron Throne.

"I volunteer to be the producer for this project."

Stella Willow announced, and the executives were a little surprised. They hadn't expected someone to take on the responsibility. Usually the producer of their movies was Harold Witsend.

"That's fine with me. Stella knows the TV show industry better than I do. Besides, I have a lot to do this year..." Harold sighed. He brushed his hair, which was getting thinner and thinner.

He imagined his future as a bald guy... He was still in his late 30s, but his hair loss was already showing. He had to manage three movies this year. He also had to face certain people every two weeks because of his promise.

"Thanks." Stella nodded. She loved her position as General Manager, but she also missed being on a production set, managing people. Since this project was based on a novel, the chances of success were higher, so Stella was confident.

"Let's end the meeting."

Kazir announced, and the people left the room, except for Palenque Simone.

"So Palenque, I think you understand the reason why you're here."

"I don't want to be arrogant, but sir, do you want me to be the director of this TV show?"

"Yes. Although I can't make a certain decision right now. I'll give you an assignment, I want you to research and read the novel. Make a short movie related to the novel and give it to me. It doesn't have to be expensive, you can use our facilities. You have three months, after that I will decide."

"Thank you, sir!" Palenque blushed with happiness and thanked Kazir sincerely. He knew this was his chance to prove himself.

Excited, he left the room. He left the company immediately after telling HR that he would be taking a week off. Kazir gave him permission to take a week off. He went to a bookstore and bought the three published novels of A Song of Ice and Fire.

He began to read them seriously, immersing himself in them. As the pages turned, Palenque knew he might fall in love with the project. The characters in the novels were deep and complex.

He imagined a woman with pale skin and white hair, the mother of dragons.

Nothing much happened in January, except that Kazir attended meetings and talked to the representatives of Big Five, who wanted to acquire a part of Grey Pictures.

After many meetings, their projects for the year were Pirates Of The Caribbean, Wanted 2 and The Equalizer.

Pirates of the Caribbean would be directed by Kazir Grey.

Wanted 2 would be directed by Fremont Smith.

As for The Equalizer, Grey Pictures has hired Antoine Fuqua to direct.

Antoine Fuqua was the director of Replacement Killers, Bait, Training Day, Tears of the Sun, King Arthur, Olympus Has Fallen, Southpaw, Bullet Train, and The Equalizer. His filmography was amazing.

But as of 2003, Antoine Fuqua had only made three movies in his career. He was still a new director in the industry and Kazir successfully hired the guy for $5 million. Antoine happily accepted the salary because it was the biggest offer of his career.

The Equalizer was actually an American spy thriller television series that originally aired on CBS from 1985 to 1989.

Grey Pictures acquired the rights to the TV series long before Taken was released. Kazir planned the path of CCU from the beginning. Just as he acquired the rights to Jason Bourne.

CBS was owned by Paramount... When CBS/Paramount heard that the TV series they had sold to Grey Pictures was going to be part of the Continental Cinematic Universe, they might have had a stroke of regret. That would be another story.

Just like that, February arrived and another batch of movies hit theaters.

"Angelina! Please look into the camera and smile! Director Grey, please give Angelina a hug. Yes, that's right, hug her tighter!"

Some of the photographers were a bit demanding, but Kazir decided to go along with them. Tonight was a special day for Angelina and he didn't want to spoil it.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Angelina whispered.

"With being so close to you? Never?"

The woman giggled at Kazir's answer.

Tonight was February 6th, just before midnight. The premiere of How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days would start a few minutes later.

Of course, Angelina and Kazir were on the red carpet.

How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days was invested by Paramount Pictures and they hired some photographers to take pictures of Kazir and Angelina to promote their movies. For some reason, Kazir Grey was a famous person and a lot of people were interested in him.

How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days was a romantic comedy. It was about a woman who wanted to prove that she could make a man fall in love with her and then break up with him after ten days.

Kazir told Angelina that the script of this movie was promising and Angelina trusted him. So the result was this.
