Chapter 678： Another goddaughter
The rising sun hangs in the east. Through the sparse palm trees, the ground is covered with golden yellow. In front of the repaved lawn and slate villa, a customized version of the Rolls-Royce Phantom has been launched, slightly The sound of the motor is like welcoming the host.
The sound of crisp high-heeled shoes falling on the stone slab sounded. Nicole Ming, who was wearing a professional skirt, obviously had just been moisturized. She strode out of the villa and waited for the bodyguard to open the rear door and got into the car first. .
Afterwards, Ryan also walked out of the villa holding his document bag and briefcase. After he got in the same car, the three-car convoy drove out of Nicole's manor in Beverly Hills.
"What did John send in the morning?" Nicole looked curiously at the file bag that Ryan was holding, "What's the urgent matter."
"It's not very important." Ryan opened the file bag casually, "Some information about "Transformers"."
"Didn't we sign with Michael Bay?"
Speaking of this, Nicole still has some questions, "Are you sure he won't turn this series into "Escape from the Clone Island" as nondescript work?"
"Of course!" Ryan nodded, "After this serious failure, Michael will understand what he is good at and what the audience likes."
Just two days ago, after more than a week of consideration and reflection, Michael Bay and Disney reached a preliminary agreement on the filming of the "Transformers" series. The golden combination of him and Jerry Bruckheimer will start as soon as possible. Preparatory work.
After taking out the not-too-thick pile of materials in the document bag, Ryan looked through it roughly, not to mention the text introduction, just a dozen photos were attractive enough.
"what is this?"
Looking at the hot swimsuit photos in Ryan's hands, Nicole frowned slightly, "When did you get interested in underwear models?"
She is very familiar with the fashion industry. After just a few glances, I found that the photos are the makeup photos of some of the most popular angels in Victoria's Secret.
"This is the candidate sent by Victoria's Secret." Ryan handed Nicole the photos and information. Nicole flipped through it and asked in confusion, "Does CT still want to enter the underwear industry? Her Ambition and footsteps are too big."
"Hey, my dear, don't get me wrong." Ryan leaned over, pulled out a few brief introductions from Nicole, and pointed to her, "I had someone contact the management of Victoria's Secret some time ago. With them Reached a consensus on cooperation and will choose a heroine from their angels."
"So..." Nicole's brows gradually loosened.
"They are regarded as one of the film sponsors." Ryan continued, "will pay for part of the film."
This is only part of the implanted advertisement. After the official announcement of this project, countless car manufacturers have found Disney and asked to become a member of the Autobots. Various negotiations are still in progress, but the film’s direct planner and The producer is Ryan, even the most conservative estimate. The placement of advertising alone will also recover $60 million.
"Which one do you prefer?" Nicole flipped through the pictures of the angels. "Adriana? Lima? Miranda? Kerr? Giselle? Bonson? Alessandra? Ambrosio. ?"
"The heroine in the script is a high school student, and the actor must not be too old." Ryan took the information returned by Nicole and returned it to the file bag. "Disney wants Zac Efron to play the leading role. He is a youth idol that Disney is currently working hard to create. The candidate for the heroine should also be paired with him."
"Well... this kind of thing should be handed over to Michael Bay." Ryan shook his head, "It's just a supporting role for a few robots."
The heroes and heroines in this kind of movie. It's just a foil, there is only one real protagonist, and that is Optimus Prime!
Disney's preparations have long been ahead. Not only did it reach a movie-related toy sharing agreement with Hasbro, it also brought in Peter Cullen to voice Optimus Prime, who was also the voice of Optimus Prime in the American animation.
In short, Ryan and Disney are preparing to gather all the factors that are beneficial and nostalgic for the film, and evoke the memory of Transformers in the hearts of a generation.
Of course, in the hearts of die-hard fans, the live-action movie version will definitely become a model of ruining childhood.
In fact, movie versions of various childhood works have been released in recent years and in the next few years, all of which are destroying childhood memories, but it is not unreasonable for the film to be filmed in this way. Not only is the era changing, but the audience is changing, just like that year. Fans’ psychology is also changing, and movies must be changed in accordance with it, otherwise they are destined to be eliminated by the times.
No matter how good a movie is, it is deeply influenced by time, region, culture and social environment. Not all good works will be praised all over the world. Even Hollywood commercials that seem to have swept the world are difficult. Make it happen.
The most typical example is "The Hunger Games." Less than two months after the movie was released in North America, it won a box office of 425.61 million U.S. dollars, and Rotten Tomatoes had a high praise rate of 85 percent. Imdb, which has always discriminated against commercial films, also has a score of 7.6, but what about overseas?
This film has been released in all major overseas markets including mainland China. Up to now, the overseas box office has not reached 200 million U.S. dollars. Except for the English-language friends, most overseas markets regard it as a movie. The so-called bad movies, according to the predictions of several professional organizations on Wall Street, the final overseas box office is about 270 million US dollars. For a commercial masterpiece, such an overseas box office can only be said to be average.
You know, since the end of the last century, the overseas box office of Hollywood's commercial masterpieces has completely crushed the North American box office. For most of the big-selling movies, the overseas box office can even be close to twice the North American box office, and like "The Hunger Games", Commercial blockbusters with super-sales in North America but mediocre overseas responses are really rare.
It can be said that different cultural backgrounds, social openness and the development of the feminist movement have determined the huge differences between this film in North America and overseas.
The black Rolls-Royce Phantom drove all the way into Malibu, and finally stopped in front of a beach house. This is one of Ryan’s few properties. He and Nicole’s disposition to buy land is completely different. There are only a few properties in his possession, even Lanai Island in Hawaii, which was originally purchased for Nicole, but was later put under his name by Nicole.
Maybe Nicole likes to buy land everywhere, is it inherited the Kidman family tradition?
In addition, Ryan reminded Nicole that she was also gradually transferring most of the real estate in her hands, and then through the foundation under the names of the two, Scott invested in the IT industry, which is developing faster and faster in the future.
This villa, together with the beach and gardens, covers an area of 12 acres. It may not be the most luxurious villa in Malibu, but it is definitely one of the most luxurious villas, and this is the mansion of Tony Stark in the movie. .
That's right, "Iron Man" borrowed Ryan's mansion to shoot the location. This film only left some life-like scenes, and most of the other shots were shot in the studio.
Walking into the villa, you can see busy crew members everywhere. In the spacious first-floor lobby, Gwyneth Paltrow who plays Pepper Cutt and Robert Downey Jr. who plays Tony Stark. Walking around around the camera, occasionally showing some expressions of intimacy or dispute.
Of course, as an amazing superhero movie full of black technology, a green screen must be indispensable when shooting.
"I heard that Robert Downey Jr. has successfully detoxified?"
After the crew called to stop, Nicole held Ryan and asked in a low voice, "His mental state looks much better than when he was filming "Argo"."
"Who knows."
Ryan doesn’t care about whether the other party has rehabilitated or not, as long as he doesn’t affect the filming of the film. What's more, the contract signed with him is the same as when Ryan was filming "Argo", which is extremely strict in this respect. limits.
Besides, how many celebrities in Hollywood secretly take drugs or become addicted to drugs? I am afraid it is a very terrifying number.
Even he and Nicole, occasionally try dama, of course, not for addiction or relaxation, but as a remedy for love.
After they reconcile, there are always two or three times a year. Everyone in Nicole’s family will be given vacations. Then the two of them will take a few mouthfuls and use the entire villa as a battlefield. No more energy so far.
Nothing different from other people, love always wears away with time. To maintain this relationship, in addition to the inseparable entanglements with each other, you must also maintain sufficient freshness. Ryan and Nicole both understand this. , Sometimes I am looking for some other kind of stimulation.
"Hi, Ryan, Nicole."
"Hi, Gwyneth."
Gwyneth Paltrow, who was holding her daughter, walked over The two were old friends. Ryan and Nicole were also welcome, and walked over and teased the baby who was blinking curiously.
"Apple, remember me?" Nicole took the girl in Gwyneth Paltrow's hands.
The little girl didn't even admit her birth, her little hand grabbed Nicole's skirt and her mouth curled up.
"Your scene is over?" Ryan looked at Nicole, and turned her eyes to Gwyneth, who had already removed her makeup.
"Today's scene is over." Gwyneth pointed to the crew resting in the distance, "The rest is Robert's one-man show."
Just now, Ryan also had a few words with Jon Feiru. The filming will end at the end of this month and move on to more cumbersome post-production. If there is no accident, the first part of "Iron Man" It's completely in time for next year's summer vacation.
"Ryan, can you make a request?"
I have been friends on both sides for more than ten years, and Gwyneth Paltrow is not polite, "Can you **** Pool's godfather?" (to be continued...) ()
The sound of crisp high-heeled shoes falling on the stone slab sounded. Nicole Ming, who was wearing a professional skirt, obviously had just been moisturized. She strode out of the villa and waited for the bodyguard to open the rear door and got into the car first. .
