In any case, Steven Spielberg's complete withdrawal from the "Jurassic Park" series is bound to be subject to various interpretations and speculations by the media, telling Amy to pay attention to media PR matters, seeing Robert Redford from guests When the crowd came, Simon took the initiative to get up and greeted him.

Robert Redford is the guest of honor tonight at the Golden Globes for Best Picture in a Musical Comedy.

If a Hollywood star appears at the major film awards ceremonies that year, either there are nominated movies under their name, or a new movie is released that year to increase exposure due to the need for publicity, so it is not every time that everyone competes to attend these awards ceremonies. .

Redford is the latter case.

This also refers to the "Behind the Scenes Lies" that Redford personally directed last year, when Simon made a random move to induce Disney to grab the project. Originally thought that it could consume some of Disney's high-quality schedule at the end of last year, but the effect of the film was really bad. Although it cost 40 million US dollars, Disney decisively gave up last year's end-of-year schedule, and even wanted to throw it into the schedule of January and February this year. in the cemetery.

As a director, Redford naturally disagreed.

Movie schedule has always been an important factor affecting the box office. If "Behind the Scenes Lies" is released in January and February, the box office of the unpopular film will be even more dismal, which will inevitably become a stain on Redford's career.

After many negotiations between the two parties, Disney reluctantly made some concessions. At the end of last year, the schedule was still not available, but it also adjusted the schedule to a slightly better Easter this year. Redford attended the Golden Globes this time to give "Behind the Scenes Lies". The release of the movie has created some heat, and it will definitely participate in the Oscars in March.

Even if "The Lies" was not released, Disney's 1993 year-end schedule was bleak. The highly anticipated "Nuns Are Crazy 2" had a total North American box office of only $26.56 million as of last week, and it is expected to barely break through before the next release. At the $30 million mark, compared to the total investment of $55 million in the production and publicity of the film, it is difficult to recover the full cost of this project even after overseas distribution and other post-production channels.

Speaking of which, because of the strength of Daenerys Entertainment, the past year has not been easy for other Hollywood studios.

Amy stood up with Simon, greeted Redford and walked away.

Simon and Redford sat down in the booth just now.

This year's Sundance Film Festival happens to be the 10th, a very commemorative year, and the film festival only opened on January 20, a little later than previous years, and the closing date is January 30, lasting 11 days.

Once became friends because of "Lola Run" participating in the film festival, the topic of the two naturally started from Sundance.

In the face of Redford's invitation, Simon readily agreed to attend the Sundance closing ceremony next Sunday.

The two discussed several outstanding films at Sundance this year, and Redford talked about "Behind the Scenes Lies". He regretted not choosing to cooperate with Daenerys Entertainment at first. His energy in the past year They are all involved in this possibly doomed film, and have not yet begun to look for other projects.

Simon knew what Redford meant and took the initiative to say that he would pay attention to the projects that were suitable for the other party. In fact, this is also the purpose of Redford coming to participate in this after-party. Although he has a kindness to Simon, he is not able to meet this young man who is more and more shining at any time.

The two chatted warmly for about ten minutes. Redford also knew that many people at the party wanted to meet Simon. When it was almost time, he got up to say goodbye to Simon and planned to leave the party.

Simon personally sent Redford to the door of the party hall, parted with Redford, and just turned around, Nancy Josephson, the daughter of icm founder Marvin Josephson, came over with another tall girl, but she turned around. It's Natasha Henstridge.

When approaching, Nancy Josephson smiled and greeted Simon, "Simon, are you leaving?"

Simon shook hands with the other party, nodded and said, "Almost, it's very late."

Nancy Josephson withdrew her hand and gestured to the girl beside her: "Actually, Natasha wanted to say hello to you."

If it weren't for seeing Natasha Henstridge, Simon would have almost forgotten that he picked up a beautiful vase late last year.

The filming of "Xenogeneic" has started recently. Because it is a MGM project, and it is not a key point, Simon has not paid much attention to it. He just spent some time last year to finalize the basic "original team", which can be regarded as a guarantee for the film's box office.

Taking a look at the tall and slender girl wearing a black deep V dress tonight, Simon smiled and pointed to the booth where Redford and the others just chatted at the edge of the hall: "Let's go over there and talk."

Nancy Josephson naturally agreed.

The three came to the booth and noticed Natasha Henstridge's hesitation when they were seated. Nancy Josephson quietly pushed the other party. When the girl sat down beside Simon, she sat opposite. Summoned the waiter to come over and exchanged a glass of champagne, looking for a topic: "Simon, have you seen the two projects that Daenerys TV just signed with us?"

Simon nodded and said, "I happened to be in New York a few days ago. It's a very good script. I heard that "Friends" was recommended to Iger by you?"

Nancy Josephson quietly looked and weighed the expression of the young man on the opposite side. She didn't see anything unusual. She was a little disappointed in her heart, but she said with a smile on her face: "Yes, Seinfeld is so successful, I think

Yes, the same type of urban sitcoms should be very marketable. "

After the new year, Daenerys TV began to look for TV projects for the new year.

Just recently signed two scripts with icm, one is an old-fashioned crime film, which Simon doesn't take too seriously, and the other is the famous "Friends".

"Friends" in the original time and space was packaged and recommended by Nancy Josephson, the daughter of the founder of icm, to Warner Bros. TV production company, and then logged on to the nbc TV network, becoming nbc's most successful sitcom before and after the new century, because of this With the phenomenal success of sitcoms, Time Warner could even earn hundreds of millions of dollars a year in copyright revenue from Netflix decades later.

c Created a very successful project packaging mechanism in the 1980s.

After the rise of Daenerys Entertainment, although Simon did not completely reject this kind of cooperation model, which is very unfriendly to the studio, he never accepted compulsory project packaging. Daenerys Entertainment also has the final say if it feels inappropriate.

Nancy Josephson's words just now are actually trying to test Simon's attitude towards this project, in order to figure out how many icm artists can be recommended.

If Westeros is very optimistic about "Friends", then icm can be stronger in the follow-up cooperation and have more say in the process of winning the role. Executives like Iger will inevitably make concessions in the execution process.

In the past "Friends", in addition to the six leading actors, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, George Clooney and other big names who participated in guest appearances in the following years are actually icm's customers, which shows icm's enthusiasm for this project. Influence.

Many things in this time and space have changed.

At least this time, Courteney Cox, who is signed to wma and is a little famous, will definitely not play Monica Geller.

With the exception of Courteney Cox, Simon is very inclined to keep the other actors "original", so privately he must interfere in the casting production of the TV series.

It's just that these certainly don't show up in front of Nancy Josephson.

After a few perfunctory words, Simon turned to Natasha Henstridge, who occasionally pretended to touch him inadvertently, stretched his arms around the girl's waist and asked with a smile, "How is Nata lately?"

Natasha Henstridge only feels that these years have been rough.

The Victoria's Secret show that has become more and more popular in the past two years. She was selected at the beginning. She originally thought she was going to become famous. She didn't expect to be topped at the recent stage. The girl who replaced her was named Naja Allman. The 'legs' that Westeros personally held up, she must not be able to compete, knowing that she was brushed down for this reason, and even almost collapsed.

After losing the opportunity of Victoria's Secret, I felt that the future of my modeling career was bleak, and I began to try to turn to Hollywood.

The water here is not much shallower than the fashion world.

Then, he was suddenly selected by Simon Westero. After a lot of tossing, he got "Xenogeneic" and became the other party's exclusive vase. During this time, he not only owned a set of $2 million in the wealthy Bel Air area of ​​Los Angeles. In the luxury villa, the stars of the "Alien" crew who are much higher than her in Hollywood are also polite to her. Compared with other vases, her treatment in the crew is like a princess level.

It's just that, apart from the initial meeting and chatting on the plane for half an hour, Westeros never contacted her again for more than three months.

Thinking of some of the words of the female assistant next to him, she once felt that she might have been directly abandoned by Westeros.

Well, he hadn't even slept with her.

Although the other party said that she would be his lover for one year, if she was abandoned like this, if others knew about her, her situation in Hollywood would definitely be very bad, so during this time she even began to suffer from insomnia and anxiety, And apart from the broker, I dare not talk about this to anyone else.

It wasn't until tonight that her agent informed her about the party with the icm owner's daughter, and that she might hope to meet Westeros.

I did see it.

However, looking at his initial gaze, he seemed to have really forgotten himself.

At this moment, when the big hand came over, Natasha Henstridge did not resist the shyness or the like at all, all she felt in her heart was relief.

He couldn't help but glance at the others in the hall.

Many guests have noticed the situation here, and she is not worried. Instead, she hopes that more people will see her, and more people will know that she is a woman from Westeros.

Of course, the mind should not be confused.

He quickly agreed to the man's question: "It's very good, everyone takes good care of me."

In fact, I originally thought that if the young man liked him enough, maybe he could reject the movie and replace it with a script with more potential. After all, the scale of "Xenogeneic" is a bit large. It is not easy for her to get rid of the image of the vase in this kind of film.

Now, he doesn't dare to have similar thoughts again.

Even during this period of filming, when the director said that some scenes could be used as a stand-in, she did not dare to agree. What if he just wanted to see her body in this movie? On the contrary, some kissing scenes were arranged to be borrowed, and the agent took the initiative to communicate with the crew. This kind of small details that are much less important than nude scenes, although the crew finds it strange, naturally they will not object.

Simon nodded slightly and said, "Actually, your figure is very good, if you want to

If you are developing in Hollywood, you can try the line of action actresses. Hollywood will need such actresses very much in the future. "

After Simon finished speaking, Natasha Henstridge immediately thought of "Catwoman" Valerie Golino in "Batman", and "Wonder Woman" Famke Janssen.

Valerie Golino is the youngest actress in Venice, she is incomparable, but think of Mick Jensen, the other party was only a small model who was not even a celebrity.

The eyes of Nancy Josephson on the opposite side also lit up.

With the popularity of "Wonder Woman", Famke Janssen has become one of the most successful examples of the fashion industry turning to Hollywood, and more fashion models have begun to develop to Hollywood in recent years.

Famke Janssen is actually an artist under icm, but if the company can add a top action actress, no one will dislike it. After all, Famke Janssen will be locked in the role of "Wonder Woman" for a long time, and another action actress will appear, and the two sides will not have too much resource conflict.

Natasha Henstridge put the sticker on the man without a trace and said, "But, I don't know how to do it."

"Have you studied dance?"

Natasha Henstridge said: "I took dance lessons for a while when I was a kid, but stopped at ten."

Nancy Josephson, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help rolling her eyes.

Is it necessary to add the last sentence?

Simon just smiled and said, "In this case, you may have to suffer a little. However, you are only 20 years old this year, so there is still a chance."

"19," Natasha Henstridge said. "My birthday is August 15th, and I'll be 20 in half a year."

Nancy Josephson couldn't help but complain in her heart: Westeros is not one of those men who likes little girls.

It seems to take time to give this vase a good lesson.

Simon said: "It's better to be 19 years old, and you can still stretch your body. You don't have many scenes in "Xenogeneic". In the near future, you can ask icm to arrange some training courses for you."

Natasha Henstridge nodded obediently.

This time, he didn't say that he was actually very poor.

At first, I couldn’t hold back my greed and asked for a mansion worth 2 million US dollars. Recently, I found that such a villa costs a lot of money for the annual maintenance of the property, water, electricity, maintenance and property tax. Dollar.

However, because she did not have many roles in "Aliens", she was not the first heroine, and she did not have any celebrity status, and the salary this time was only 50,000 US dollars.

Her agent Raul said this is still too high, obviously for the sake of Westeros. If it is another actress, the maximum is 30,000 US dollars. In addition, there are factors that need to appear in nude scenes, otherwise the salary will be reduced. lower.

$50,000, minus the brokerage and reserved taxes, plus his usual expenses that are neither low nor low, there is basically nothing left. Therefore, she recently had to apply for a loan of $100,000. The dress she wore tonight was rented, and it was still a small brand.

In fact, this is one of the reasons for her anxiety and insomnia during this period of time.

If Westeros really forgot, she might have to sell that house in two or three years, and she'd get a sum of money, but then nothing. Having tasted the inner taste of Hollywood, Vanity Fair, too many people care about the "then" after that.
