Chapter 191： Contact

Hollywood has no overnight secrets. This sentence is a bit exaggerated, but it can always reflect certain facts. Ryan and Nicole’s invitations were sent out before Christmas, and there were paparazzi at the door for a long time. The guests have not yet arrived. Dozens of reporter paparazzi appeared around the villa.

Originally, Ryan proposed to Nicole to put the party in the hotel's banquet hall, but Nicole rejected it. This is a very private small party, and it would undoubtedly be more appropriate to hold it at home.

Although they were all old friends and acquaintances who didn't need to dress too formal, Ryan still tidied up, and when the time was about the same, Nicole and Nicole walked to the front courtyard, ready to welcome the guests.

First came Cate Blanchett. Because she took over the heroine of "Life and Death" and often went shopping with Nicole, she had some reputation in the circle.

"Is there anything I can do for help?" She asked when she came closer.

"If you can, you can act as a temporary security guard and drive away all the paparazzi." Ryan joked looking at the flashing light outside the door.

"no problem."

"Hi Judy!"

Unsurprisingly, the first people to come were all Nicole's best friends.

As night fell gradually, one after another luxury cars parked outside the villa. The reporters were almost dazzled. There are too many celebrities and celebrities coming, and this is not a red carpet. Many people come together to let them. Quite a feeling of hustle and bustle.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt and other male celebrities dressed as a gentleman, took their female companions into the villa one after another.

Maria Kelly. Actresses such as Jamie Lee Curtis, Drew Barrymore, etc. are dressed up in costumes. Showing their own style.

Those who are waiting here are all senior paparazzi. It is very clear that the ones who have made friends with Ryan Jenkins, or are more involved, are definitely not these stars, but the real power figures in Hollywood that will follow.

Carter Eisner is now the president of Touchstone Pictures. He represents Walt Disney. In addition, he is accompanied by Reed Miles of Hollywood Records and John Burns, the music director.

Gerald, who led the appearance of the **** actress, is the executive director of Time Warner. He is also one of the heads of Warner Bros.

Grant Hill went on his own very low-key, and there are rumors that he will take over the film production department of Twentieth Century Fox.

Then, there appeared a pair of brothers, Harvey Weinstein and Bob Weinstein, and now Miramax has gradually become the leader of second-tier film companies, and no one will underestimate them.

When the new helms of the two major film companies appeared, all the limelight was suppressed by them.

Ron Meyer walked into the villa with a fifteen or six-year-old girl. Some well-informed people know that it is his daughter Jennifer Meyer, who is also said to be a highly capable person.

Shirley Lansing, the blonde shawl, held the director's husband with a trace of fatigue, but smiled brightly. After all, she can be regarded as one of the top women in Hollywood.

"Why are they here? Yesterday someone photographed them on vacation in Hawaii!" A paparazzi was muttering.

"Why don't they come! Don't forget. Some people say that James Cameron and Ryan Jenkins are about to hand in year-end!" Someone reminded.

It was James Cameron and Linda Hamilton, but the tyrant director was frowning and thinking, and it seemed that they didn't match their consciousness.

Before they turned the camera back, another car stopped at the door, and the two directors walked down together.

"George Lucas and Steven Spielberg!" Someone sighed. "If Ryan Jenkins had a party every day, we wouldn't have to look for headlines everywhere!"

"Didn't you find out. That little guy talks with them on an equal footing. What does this show?"

"Hollywood's power rankings should change drastically!" Someone said with deep meaning.

On the lawn in front of the villa, Ryan shook hands with Spielberg after greeted him in a circle, "Congratulations, Stephen, I can guarantee that the best director of next year's Oscar will belong to you!"

"Really, Ryan?" Spielberg smiled brightly. After all, after "Schindler's List" was released, the media in the Western world highly praised him, "By the way, Kate asked me to say sorry to you. She is producing another movie and can’t make it back to Los Angeles.”

"It doesn't matter, I talk to Kate on the phone."

What Ryan and Spielberg said was naturally Catherine Kennedy.

Although the number of guests is not too many, they always need someone to greet them. Nicole took the female guests into the living room and left the lawn for the men. Ryan was restricted by his body and age, and he was not allowed to drink. He occasionally said something. This anecdote caused everyone to laugh continuously.

Many of these people are competitors, and there are even contradictions in private, but no one will show it on this occasion.

Besides, they are all well-known people in the circle. Naturally, they know what to do and what occasions, so the atmosphere of the party is still harmonious.

The long dining table in the middle of the lawn is full of food, and a table next to it is full of drinks. At the edge, there are professional chefs busy in front of the grill, and the aroma of barbecue will float over from time to time.

The crowd quickly divided into several piles, chatting about topics of their own interest.

"Hi, Ryan!"

"Oh, Miss Meyer."

Ryan was finishing the barbecue that the chef had cut, and could only nod his head.

"Didn't you say that, you can call me Jenny." It was Ron Meyer's daughter who came over.

"Well, Jenny." Ryan pointed to the barbecue to Jennifer Meyer, "Need it, this is an authentic Brazilian barbecue."

"Well, it's really good!" Jennifer Meyer stretched out two fingers, quickly squeezed a piece and threw it into his mouth, then blinked, "Don't tell anyone."

"No problem!" Ryan was not polite with her, "Can you help me?"

"Of course!" Jennifer Meyer picked up another plate and placed it on the long dining table with Ryan.

"Why did you come out?" Ryan pointed to the living room, and there was a crisp laughter from time to time.

"I am too young to have a common topic with them."

She fetched two glasses of juice and handed it to Ryan. "What about you?"

"Thank you!" Ryan took the juice, "Me? I said too much just now, I want to take a break..."

"You are not like a child, you always like to chat with adults."

"Work required."

Although the opponent is a few years older than him, Ryan's words are even more old-fashioned.

"Really?" Jennifer Meyer looked up and down Ryan, "Why... we also talk about work?"

"You started working?" Ryan remembered that Ron Mayer had mentioned her age before, as if she was only sixteen.

"I'm studying fashion design and jewelry design. How about letting me be your image designer?" Jennifer Meyer probably thought that she had a brilliant idea, and was a little excited. "We can sign a half-year contract first, free of charge."

Looking at the other person's dress and her age, Ryan felt that this should be a very unreliable thing.

"Um...I don't have any needs in this area for the time being." Ryan shrugged off. He rarely pays attention to these things, and he always wears a stable style.

"Really?" Jennifer Meyer carefully examined Ryan again. "Your top is the style of last year. It should have been half a year since you bought the shoes? The hairstyle is too old-fashioned and there is no new idea... um, Are you not wearing any accessories..."

The language of criticism poured down, and Ryan's dressing was useless in the opponent's mouth.

"Stop, Jenny!"

Finally, Ryan had to interrupt her and said casually, "Well, if I need an image designer in the future, I will definitely give priority to you."

"okay then."

Jennifer Meyer sighed, she wanted to make a way out of her own strength.

After a few more small chats, Ryan returned to the adult circle and talked about the topic of movies.

"Our work in China has made a major breakthrough." It was Shirley Lansing who was speaking. She was sitting in a white wicker chair, and several people around her were obviously dominated by her. "The "True Lies" have been negotiated. It will enter the Chinese market next summer at the latest."

"It's really good news." Someone echoed.

"Is it split or buyout?"

"Split the accounts."

"There is another vast market that has opened its arms to Hollywood." Someone patted the armrest of the wicker chair with emotion.

In fact, this is not a secret, otherwise Shirley Lansing would not say it on such occasions. The top executives of major film companies have known for a long time that the most populous market in 1994 will be based on the way of sharing accounts. Introduce ten major productions including Hong Kong movies.

In fact, the first agreed-upon movie was "Death of the Dead". Before this movie was released in North America, we negotiated the introduction with the opposite partyTrue Lies" can be regarded as a ride. .

Ryan remembers very clearly that the previous life "True Lies" was introduced in 1995. He didn't expect that he let the film be born early and also let it enter the other side of the Pacific in advance.

Of course, it is unrealistic to expect these movies to make money now, but, as he once said, the Hollywood movie market is cultivated with high-quality commercial blockbusters.

Despite his young age, Ryan’s social skills have long been exercised, walking among the crowd, discussing with them from time to time, and occasionally talking about common topics among men. In addition to not drinking, he seems There is not much difference from the adults present.

Interest is an important link between the two parties, but the relationship is drawn out. Only when there is a future can there be a relationship. Even the people at the top of this circle need their own alliance, let alone the current Ryan.

As the night darkened, people began to leave one after another. Ryan and Nicole sent them away one by one. In the end, only James Cameron, Shirley Lansing, Grant Hill and Harvey Wayne were left. Stan.

They are going to discuss the next cooperation project! ()
