"May, have you read the script for this recent project between Daenerys and Disney?"

"Of course, Sleepless in Seattle," Melanie Griffith nodded, then disappointed: "However, I asked Joe, and he said that the heroine Simon has already made a decision, and we don't have much chance. ."

"Oh, that's a pity, I think the heroine is quite suitable for you."

Beverly Hills.

Jonathan Friedman at his mansion in Coldwater Canyon, one of the most common of the countless parties during awards season.

Melanie Griffith also showed a regretful expression when Joanna Cassidy said this in front of her.

After giving birth to Dakota Johnson, Melanie Griffith resumed filming after taking a short break for less than a year, but several projects in the past two years seemed tepid, In all, only Dakota's "Working Girl" the year before his birth did a better job at the box office.

In comparison, her husband Don Johnson, who was only in the TV series circle, began to rise in his career after "Ten Days of Dangerous Love".

Probably because a certain young man was born out of nowhere, Melanie Griffith, who came from a movie family, is the one who can feel the obvious changes in Hollywood in recent years, which also gives her a very strong sense of crisis. . If she can't get one or two best-selling projects to support her popularity, she will soon fall back to the second tier.

Hollywood is a human circle, but it is often the least human.

If you are not popular, it will be even more difficult to get high-quality projects.

Then there is a vicious cycle that goes all the way down.

A couple came to say hello, Hollywood actress Ellen Barkin and her husband Gabriel Byrne. The reason why I say this is mainly because this is also a combination of 'women's high men's'.

Of course, even if it is women's high men's low, Ellen Barkin is only a second-tier.

Melanie Griffith and Joanna Cassidy paused to respond politely to the couple's greeting.

The two were not eligible to participate in such a party.

However, Goldman Pictures recently took a fancy to the rights to Gabriel Byrne's memoir "Proved Innocent".

Byrne bought the copyright of the film a few years ago. Originally, he planned to play the male lead himself and make it into an independent film with a budget of two or three million, hoping to hit some awards.

After Gaomen Pictures expressed interest in "Prove Innocent", after several communications, Byrne gave up the copyright and only served as a nominal executive producer. The project has also recently been finalized, titled "In the Name of the Father", and Goldman Pictures intends to cast Daniel Day-Lewis in the project after "The Last of the Mohicans" is completed.

After this transaction, the second-tier couple also attracted the attention of the circle.

The two sides are not familiar with each other, originally only need to nod to know.

However, after a few chats, Melanie Griffith suddenly became enthusiastic about Ellen Barkin and lowered her voice slightly: "Ellen, your lip line is so beautiful, did you just do it recently?"

Gabriel Byrne next to Ellen Barkin noticed that Melanie had started a conversation between women, smiled, gathered the cocktail in his hand, and walked away wisely.

Although I don't understand why Griffith suddenly became enthusiastic about him, and even had some faint vigilance in his heart, if he could make friends with the other party, it would definitely do him no harm.

Hollywood has nothing to shy away from plastic surgery. In this circle, from first-tier superstars to young actors who have just debuted, in order to make their image better, hundreds of millions of dollars are spent on plastic surgery every year.

Carefully brushing his plump lips, Ellen Barkin said, "I did it at a clinic over there in Orange County, Mei, if you're interested, I can leave you a call."

"Of course, give it to me now." Melanie Griffith seemed to be eager to take out a pen and paper directly from her handbag, and said, "I just happened to have a lip augmentation recently, and I just contacted a few times. Doctors are not satisfied."

Joanna Cassidy smiled and listened to the conversation between the two women, and finally saw Ellen Barkin look at her, as if asking if she was interested, but just shook her head with a constant smile.

When Ellen Barkin left a little flutteringly, Joanna Cassidy said, "May, you are so bad, you even encouraged her to do it again."

In the past two years, many Hollywood actresses have gradually realized a rule: Westeros does not like lip augmentation.

The news was first revealed inadvertently by Simon's casting director Linda Vargas.

The increasingly powerful young man in Hollywood, more than once in the casting process, directly washed away the actresses who had lip augmentation surgery. It is said that Westeros's original words are: lip augmentation looks very deformed , completely destroys the natural beauty of women's lips.

For this reason, the lip augmentation trend that has been popular in Hollywood for years is fading fast.

However, the news did not spread quickly.

The competition in Hollywood is very fierce, and the stars who know the inside story will not take the initiative to disclose the news to other competitors. Even, of course, there is no shortage of Melanie Griffith's initiative to encourage others to "self-destruct image".

Melanie Griffith just saw that the couple was not pleasing to the eye, and made a prank, and of course, pushed Ellen Barkin, an actress of the same age and similar to her, further away

some meaning.

As for the other party's reaction after knowing that she had been misled, she didn't care at all.

Ignoring Joanna Cassidy's ridicule, she glanced at her husband Don Johnson, who was laughing with Brian De Palma not far away, and she suddenly said again: "I wonder if Simon will come over tonight. ."

Joanna Cassidy looked in the direction of the villa's entrance to the backyard. After taking on the role of Queen Hippolyta in "Wonder Woman", although the film will not be released until the summer, she has gradually been reduced to I want to rejuvenate my career in the TV circle, and I have two film appointments that have not yet started.

In contrast, she remembered one of the last few candidates competing for the role, the most threatening Sanda Bergman, who had appeared in "Jazz Spring and Autumn" and Schwarzenegger's early "Barbarian". Conan", etc., is one of the most promising actresses to get the role of Queen Hippolyta. The two have similar positions in the past, and they deliberately seduced a certain young man during the audition process.

However, after missing Queen Hippolyta, the other party can only play some low-cost thriller romance movies in the near future.

Life situations, too many times, will be completely different because of one or two opportunities.

After "Instinct", Hollywood thriller pornography has become very popular in recent years. Although it is difficult to enter the theater, the cable TV and video tape markets are very popular with this theme. If it sells well, there will naturally be a large number of people flocking to it.

Speaking of which, these were provoked by a certain young man.

Thinking this way, Joanna Cassidy said: "Isn't he in Japan? Regarding Universal Studios Japan, I saw in the newspaper yesterday that he went to Japan to cause the 'Westeros effect', really interesting."

In the turmoil of the Japanese stock market two years ago, because the financial market noticed Simon's participation, the Japanese stock market was directly implicated by Simon's many actions. Even after Simon rushed to Australia once, there was a sharp drop.

At the beginning, the media ridiculed that Simon Westeros would probably be refused a visa if he wanted to go to Japan.

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or not. Simon rushed to Japan for Universal Studios Osaka. The Tokyo stock market fell by nearly 3% on the day he arrived, which shocked many people.

The stalk of the 'Westeros effect' was brought up again.

Melanie Griffith also knew about this, and after chatting and laughing, he added: "I heard that he has returned, yesterday."

Today is Saturday, February 15th.

Simon rushed to Osaka from Monday, only to be there for five days.

Joanna Cassidy wasn't quite sure about this, but it would be best if Westeros could come over, so she couldn't help but look in the direction of the entrance again.

Then I actually saw a guy.

Melanie Griffith also caught Simon's figure for the first time, not her sharp eyes, but the guests who were chatting in groups in the backyard. When Simon Westeros appeared, Couldn't help but turn his attention.

It's just that Westeros was chatting with Jonathan Friedman, and everyone came together without being too rude.

"This time, only a contract of intent for 100 acres of land has been signed. The Osaka city government does not want cash, but wants to use the land as a stake."

In the eyes of everyone, Simon, who had just arrived, took a cocktail from the waiter and stood casually in the courtyard chatting with Jonathan Friedman about the results of his trip to Japan just now.

Jonathan Friedman also held a cocktail and analyzed with a smile: "The price of land in Japan has fallen a lot, and the Osaka city government should not charge too much for the promotion of Universal Studios next year to the entire city's economy. ?"

"Probably about 10%," Simon said. "But maybe after a month or two, there will be some turning points. You know, Disneyland Paris will open in April."

Jonathan keenly grasped the subtext in Simon's words: "You don't like Disney Paris?"

"It's hard to say, at least the cost of Disney Paris is seriously out of control, and the cultural conflict is also very obvious. Unlike Japan's identification with American culture, France is very anti-American."

Jonathan also understands the joints. If the operating conditions of Disneyland Paris are not as good as expected, and the Japanese economy is in a downturn, the Osaka city government is likely to give up the requirement of holding shares and directly choose cash due to risk considerations. After all, if you insist on holding shares, once the theme park fails to operate in the future, this part of the shares will not only be unable to receive profit dividends, but will also continue to depreciate.

"Stop talking about that, Simon. Meg is here tonight. Would you like to talk to her about Sleepless in Seattle?"

Jonathan said this, and before Simon responded, he gave Meg Ryan a look not far away.

Although it was transferred to wma, Meg Ryan was not represented by Jonathan himself. However, wma has been trying to transform to the caa model in recent years, with a strong emphasis on internal cooperation, Jonathan naturally wants to "lead by example".

"Good evening, Simon."

After a series of previous encounters, Meg Ryan was like a well-behaved little quail in front of Simon.

Simon looked at Meg Ryan, who was wearing a black suspender dress tonight, some satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and said: "Hanks is very interested in the script, the male lead is basically sure to be him, you can talk to him in private. He talks about the script."

Meg Ryan nodded to mark it down, and saw the man raised the glass in his hand and took a sip, and walked away wisely.

Jonathan next to him saw this scene,

Also helpless.

Simon always seems to have a hard time raising any interest in this Hollywood sweetheart, who is regarded as a dream lover by countless fans.

After sending Meg Ryan away, Melanie Griffith, who had been watching, pulled her husband and walked over, followed by Joanna Cassidy, who was alone.

Everyone chatted for a while, and Melanie Griffith also talked about Dakota's recent situation.

Because of Simon's personal name, and with the continuous spread of Hollywood, Dakota Johnson has become the goddaughter of Simon Westeros in many people's impressions. I don't know if the Johnsons did it deliberately, and Simon didn't care about these details.

Came over tonight, mainly to chat with Brian de Palma about his new project "Dawn of the Love Owl" in the works.

After chatting and laughing with the Johnsons for a while, Simon, Palma and Jonathan hid back to the villa.

Now Simon, if you don't want to socialize, most people will only take it for granted.

This is another biographical gangster movie, and Universal bought the script two years ago and started slow preparations.

In Simon's memory, the film's box office was barely okay, and because of Brian De Palma, the project was directly included in Daenerys Entertainment's film list for next year.

However, Al Pacino, the protagonist that Brian de Palma liked, still has a "Scent and Knowing a Woman" to be filmed, and "Dawn of Love Owl" can only wait until the second half of the year. The schedule will depend on the specific effect of the next film to be determined.

Simon, Palma and Jonathan chatted for more than ten minutes on the terrace on the second floor of Jonathan's mansion, and more details were basically determined.

Knowing that many people at the party tonight were still looking forward to getting in touch with Simondo, Brian de Palma didn't want to be hated. call.

"Simon, the Burns who bought the copyright of "Prove Innocent" are here tonight. Would you like to chat with them?"

Simon shook his head, looked down from the balcony, and accidentally found a woman figure, but it was Kris Jenner.

The woman had probably been paying attention to this side, and when she saw Simon looking over, she raised her head and smiled politely at the man.

Jonathan noticed this and got up and said, "Okay, I'll go downstairs first."

Simon just nodded.

Kris Jenner also came downstairs at Simon's gesture.

For some reason, seeing this woman who claimed to be 'very familiar' with him, Simon couldn't help but feel a little bit of abusive thoughts.

The terrace is enclosed by a fence and inwards is a living room.

Noticing that Kris Jenner locked the face when she entered the living room, Simon couldn't help showing a little smile. This woman was very interesting, or she didn't want others to come up to disturb her.

"Hi, Simon."

Kris Jenner, who wanted to explain why she was here tonight, walked into the terrace and just said hello when she saw the young man in front of him slowly emptying a plate of candy on the round table in front of him, and put it in the air. On the floor at my feet, and then poured some wine into it.

Immediately thought of that experience on the plane.

Although a long time has passed, facing this man who has become more and more powerful in Hollywood, thinking about everything she has gained from the "New York Wife" series in the past six months, Kris Jenner can't feel the slightest resistance.

Looking at the plate with drinks at the man's feet, this kind of play has also been played.

Therefore, after hesitating for a few seconds, looking left and right, and confirming that no one will be able to see this side, the woman showed a pleasing smile and slowly lowered her body.
