American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 163 How come he has the same name as that DJ?

It was 5:30 in the afternoon when Amber came out of the hotel elevator. Three hours had passed since she entered the room for the second time.

Her hair was a little messy, and because of her fair skin, large areas of redness could be seen on her neck and face.

Even at this point, she still couldn't completely calm down.

Her girlfriend was waiting for her in the lobby downstairs, and she hurriedly went to meet her.

"Why did you stay up there so long? What did he do to you?"

Amber glanced at her coldly: "I'm not asking you to go back early."

Amber sent a text message shortly after she went back in, asking her to go back first and saying that she was negotiating with Ryan. She couldn't figure out what they were negotiating about.

Amber walked straight ahead, and she just followed.

"Did you come to any conclusion in your negotiations?" the girlfriend asked again.

"Don't ask anymore!" Amber frowned, looking really impatient.

After the two of them got into the car, the girlfriend continued to ask questions.

"We can't just let this go!" The girlfriend slapped the steering wheel.

"What do you want to do? What can you do? I'm the one who has to take care of everything! Where are you?" Amber asked repeatedly.

"I……"

"Useless trash." Amber cursed under her breath.

After returning, Amber suddenly started packing her luggage.

"Where are you going?" The girlfriend was completely panicked.

"I want to go home and stay for a few days." Amber said.

Ryan did have dinner with Trae before leaving Los Angeles.

"Taylor has been calling you often recently, especially after you proposed." Terry said absentmindedly, stirring the coffee in her cup with a spoon.

When they went to Florida before, Tyler Ryan and Terry had a meal together. Tyler was very enthusiastic towards Terry and gave her many gifts. He also visited Terry's father. He was much more filial than Ryan.

"She invited me to live in your house before. Do you really want to buy such an expensive mansion?" asked Terry.

"You have to buy it sooner or later, so it's better to do it in one go." Ryan said.

Terry said "Oh" and looked a little worried.

She was in an inexplicable conflict. On the one hand, she felt that it was extremely rare for the two of them to have come to this point, but on the other hand, she felt uncomfortable.

She couldn't explain why, but she just felt a little depressed.

Ryan saw this expression and smiled: "There will be so many rooms by then, there will definitely be a place for you to stay."

Terri's heart tightened, and she curled her lips: "I won't disturb your world of two."

"When you come back, won't it be a world of three of us?" Ryan spoke in his usual frivolous manner.

Terri glared at Ryan and said, "In short, since you've already proposed to her, don't let her down and stop messing around with other women."

"By the way, I have two things here. You have to keep them for me. You have to put them in a place that is absolutely safe and only you know." Ryan said.

Terry took the envelope and found two portable videotapes inside.

The two videotape boxes had different labels on them, one was "Cheerleaders" and the other was "Amber".

"What are you taking a picture of?" Terry frowned.

"Don't ask me about this, and don't look at it."

"I won't ask. If you want me to keep it, I'll keep it for you." Terry didn't say much.

Ryan thought about it carefully and realized that these things were not safe no matter where they were placed, and it would be better to keep them with Trey.

"As for the series, the comedy effect is good, especially those silly jokes, it may even become a hit." Terry talked about the series again...

Bamberg, Los Angeles, the internal pilot test site hosted by CW TV station, and the internal conference room where the senior executives are located.

"What do you think?" Dawn Ostroff looked around at the senior executives and spoke slowly.

She is currently the CEO of CW TV station, commonly known as the director. She was previously a senior executive at UPN network. After the merger, she became the director of CW. Many years later, she became the CEO of Spotify.

The person in charge of program development said: "This vampire-themed TV series cleverly integrates the popular vampire elements with family, historical elements, and of course love elements. The casting is also good. I think it has the potential to become a hit."

“And the market positioning is very clear. Young women are the target audience of this movie, and this point can be highlighted in the publicity.” The marketing and publicity director followed.

"But this is a fantasy TV series. Judging from the special effects shots in the pilot episode, the production cost will be relatively high. I think we should be cautious." The head of finance and operations raised an objection.

"Two consultants, what are your opinions?" DeWine looked at the representatives from Warner and CBS sitting at the end.

"It's clearly above average quality, the best TV show we've seen in recent days," said one of them.

The other answer was similar.

Dewen then pressed the button on the phone in front of her: "What's the feedback from the audience representatives?"

The ratings analyst on the other end of the phone responded: "Some people think it's great and are looking forward to what's next, while others... think the plot is a bit long."

"That's because the plot hasn't unfolded yet." Julie defended quietly. As a producer and representative of the production company, she naturally had to be present at the pilot test site.

Devin asked a few questions in a low voice at this point, and finally looked at Julie.

"We need to think about it again. As usual, we'll give you a definite answer one month before the pilot season."

Julie nodded. "Also, I'm producing a second TV series this year. Due to the rush of time, this series is not on the schedule, but I think we can cut in line. After all, it's a sitcom and everyone can watch it while eating lunch."

Devin glanced at the expensive ladies' watch and nodded casually: "Just treat it as a side dish! I'll give you five minutes. If you can't catch our attention, change the channel."

"agree!"

"I have to go get my lunch in." The senior executives were doing their own things, and Julie asked the staff to start playing the film.

"Ding Ding!"

"Tables twelve, four, and eleven!"

On the big screen, the chef brings the dishes to the serving port...

"Is that armpit hair?" Devin's eyes widened as she noticed that the chef's look was a little too sloppy.

Daddario, chewing gum and wearing a yellow apron, came to the food counter and said as he served the dishes: "When you are free, please take your eyes off my breasts."

The older person in charge of finance and operations was opening a lunch box. When she heard this, her pupils shrank and she stopped moving. She only whispered, "Oh my God, are you showing this to young people nowadays?"

"This actress is very skilled at carrying the plate." Devin noticed the details.

I was soon attracted by Daddario's flamboyant performance style.

In just three or four shots, the conference room, which had been noisy during lunch time, suddenly became silent.

The person in charge of program development held a plastic fork in his mouth, but forgot to open the lunch box, and stared at the screen with his eyes fixed.

Then everyone burst into laughter at Daddario's joke, which was about the band Coldplay.

"The screenwriter is an expert and knows what's popular right now." The marketing and publicity director put his hands on the back of his head and leaned back, which allowed him to watch the movie in a more relaxed posture, which he usually did at home.

In just a few minutes, Daddario's performance "stunned" the entire audience.

"Who is the screenwriter?" Devin found that the script was very well written. The heroine completely exposed her identity and personality traits through gags, which would leave a deep impression on the audience.

"Ryan, Ryan Rivers." Julie said casually.

"That yellow-haired DJ, no, it should be the person with the same name." Devin nodded without thinking much about it.

The film was still playing, and when Caroline, played by Amber, appeared on the stage, there was another gasp of surprise from the audience.

“Wow, it’s beautiful.”

"Who is this?"

"This isn't the Texas blonde B...it should be her."

"This outfit brings out her physical advantages very well."

The top executives were communicating.

As the plot progresses, these people finally discover that this drama is a drama with two female protagonists.

"The two heroines have very distinct characteristics and huge differences, but their personalities complement each other. They really are like a pair of sisters, and the combination of them is very comedic."

"The supporting characters are uniquely portrayed, and each one has a memorable moment. Who is the screenwriter of this drama?"

The two consultants also spoke one after another.

Under normal circumstances, people are not allowed to communicate too much during the internal testing phase, but now it is lunch time, and even so, everyone's attention is firmly drawn to it.

From a sitcom perspective, this is truly a masterpiece.

And when the pilot episode ended, everyone, including Devin, felt a little unsatisfied.

"Let's talk about the evaluation. This time, let's consider it from the financial aspect." Dewen supported her chin.

"Situation comedy, low cost and high return, it's my favorite." Even the usually fussy financial director gave the green light.

"If I had to find a flaw, it would be the abrupt canned laughter," the content manager joked.

Marketing and Publicity Director: "I don't have any opinion. It's fun. That's enough. Who cares about advertisers?"

Devin looked at the others, and this time no one questioned it.

"What do the outside audience think this time?"

"Audience representatives are now asking when the show will be broadcast."

Hearing the same reaction from the audience, the last stone in Devin's heart fell to the ground.

"Sign the contract, Julie, if you want to leave here!" Devin said with a smile.

She had hesitated over The Vampire Diaries just now, but this sitcom was clearly of "must-win-it-on-the-spot" quality.

This could become a super hit on par with "Friends", or at least "Two and a Half Men". Dewan thought that sitcoms have always been CW's weak point, and she was determined to win this "Broke" series.

"Well...it's not that I don't want to sign. The investor told me to wait and see how other TV stations react." Julie said with a wry smile. Ryan's original words were actually "wait for the right price", so she couldn't agree so quickly.

"What if I sign two dramas with you right now? Including the one I just saw called The Vampire Diaries!" Devin raised her terms.

"Well... I have to call Ryan." Julie was relieved. Of course, The Vampire Diaries was also very important to her.

"Now."

"Ryan...are you back to the nightclub? It's nothing, I'm at the CW internal testing site now..." Julie whispered.

Nightclub? What was this screenwriter doing in a nightclub in broad daylight? Looking for inspiration? Devin was confused.

"He said he needed to think about it, and he seemed to have other things to do. He said he would call back in a few hours." Julie hung up the phone.

"Then we can wait for a few hours, even until we get off work today. I haven't had the chance to ask you who this screenwriter is. I've never heard of this name before." Devin asked again.

"I told you, Ryan Rivers."

"There are so many people with this name, like that DJ..." When she said this, Devin was stunned.

"Yes, you're right, it's Ryan Rivers!" Julie nodded.

"Fuck!" Devin screamed.

Looking at the other senior executives in the room, they all had incredible expressions...
