Greyson Pictures

Standing in front of the building with the sign Greyson Entertainment, Carl looked at it for a moment and entered. It is the company which belonged to previous Carl and now him.

Greyson entertainment is a very small production company which has produced very small number of projects, only three. The only benefit company has is that it has not much problem in finding distributors. Carl's uncle Derek Greyson is the vice head of distribution department in MGM, so he helps Carl a lot with the matter.

As he entered the company, there were not many people present in the company. Greyson entertainment is a very small company with only 16 employs. Carl went directly to the office.

A white man immediately came forward to greet Carl: "How are you Mr.Carl?"

The person was his secretary Jason Hest. He has been Carl's assistant for many years now, and the previous Carl was also very satisfied with him.

Carl replied: "I am fine now."

Jason nodded and took out the file and placed it in front of the boss: "Sir, these are the final papers before the start of project. If everything clear, then you can sign it and we can have funds to start the production."

Carl took the papers and read them. He knows that Greyson entertainment was about to start a low budget horror movie "Who knows". He has read the movie's script at his home in the past few days, and he didn't like the script much.

He has already decided how to deal with the matter. Taking out another script from the folder he was carrying, Carl handed it to Jason. "You can take it and discuss it with the team, and then tell me which project to continue."

Jason was a little confused, but took the script and left.

It was the script of the movie "Scream". Yes, the same scream which Miramax would've produced next year. He checked it with the writers guild and there was no such script registered. It is now January, so the original author must have not written it. So, Carl wrote the script in a week and registered it in his own name.

After two hours, Jason entered office again with two other people, one man and woman. The man is the head of production department of the company, Mr. Oliver Jones. And the woman is the head of finincial department Mrs. Elanor Gracia.

Carl asked with a smile: "So, which project should our company continue?"

Oliver, the head of production department said: "Sir, the second one is obviously better, but we have some doubts to clarify first."

Carl nodded them to continue speaking.

Oliver Jones said: "Sir, who does the script belong to, I mean where did our company get it?" What he wanted to ask was why did such a good script came to them. Obviously the best food always goes to the ones on the top.

Carl smiled: "Don't worry. The script is on my name, so there will no such problems."

Mr.Oliver was a little embarrassed and Mrs, Elanor took question. "Sir, but there is another problem. According to the estimate, the budget of this project would be approximately 15 million US dollars, and our company has only a total of 12 million dollars in the revenue."

The other project thay were going to work on only needed a budget of 8 million. In this way, the remaining 4 million could remain in revenue for the security purposes.

Carl replied: "That problem can be solved. I will deposit five million to the company's reserve. In this way, we would still have three million left if anything goes wrong with the movie."

The five million he was talking about was from the orignal six million he left.

Everyone's doubt were cleared and they left the office satisfied. They have to deal with other matters now, including director, actors, etc.

After dealing with the matters of the office, Carl left for the apartment. As he stepped on the apartment floor, he encountered a beautiful girl maybe his neighbor.

Amy Adams was about to go look for an Audition again today, when she encountered someone on the same floor as her. He should be her neighbor. He looks quite tough and handsome. She has come to Los Angeles from Atlanta with the help of her friend. She wanted to work here in movies, but it seems she was just dreaming. She has been here for two months, and doesn't have gotten a single acting job yet. As for agent, no agent values her and have refused to sign the contract. If this continues for another month, she can only go back to Atlanta as her all money was about to finish now. Although unwilling, but this is the sad reality.

She greeted the man first, "Hello, I am Amy Adams, your neighbor."

Carl also greeted back: "Hi, I am Carl Greyson."

He was quite surprised with the girl's name. At first, he was wondering where did the familiarity came from, but his doubts were cleared now. This girl was the future famous actress Amy Adams, although she looks quite young now.

The scene was a little awkward, Carl didn't know what to say, so he took out his buisness card: "I am a producer. My company will do casting auditions in a few day, you can try. Maybe you can become an actress."

Saying this much, Carl hurriedly entered his apartment.
