Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Chapter 15 Divorce Battle

"Why, am I not suitable to appear here?"\u003c/p\u003e

The next day, Demi Moore arrived at the audition room of 20th Century Fox. She was wearing a low-cut black dress with diamonds, her black hair spread out, her body slowly leaning on the desk, her shoulders twisting slightly, doing A seductive move. \u003c/p\u003e

Demi Mille has not yet dyed her hair blonde to suit the role of Tess. Her eyes are shining, and she is 120% electric towards Ronald, who plays opposite her. \u003c/p\u003e

"No, no, I'm pretty sure you're top-notch no matter what you do, Ace." Ronald quickly read the script, he had forgotten the words. \u003c/p\u003e

Ronald had also experienced her charm, but today he couldn't stand the natural coquettishness of this woman. As she got older, she became more like a young woman. \u003c/p\u003e

"I have a brain that can do business, and a body that is tempting to commit crime... Is there anything wrong with this?"\u003c/p\u003e

Demi Moore moved her body a few inches closer to Ronald, and then spoke the lines to Ronald in her hoarse voice. \u003c/p\u003e

"Of course,...ah...there's nothing wrong..." Ronald's nose was getting closer and closer to Demi Moore, and he could almost smell the delicious smell of her breath. Ronald, who was indeed shaken by the beauty, now acted in his true colors. \u003c/p\u003e

In the script, Tess goes to the bar to meet Jack Traynor, the investment banker who will pretend to be a manager to sell her M\u0026A plan tomorrow. \u003c/p\u003e

Because she met her in the bar on purpose, Tess was fully prepared and used many tricks to seduce men, which made Ronald, who was playing against her, cry out that he couldn't stand it. \u003c/p\u003e

"That's great, Ronald. I didn't expect your acting skills to be so good. Have you ever considered playing a role?" Casting director Julia Taylor deliberately praised Ronald from the side to relieve the awkward situation. \u003c/p\u003e

"Hey, Demi is better at acting. The improvement in your acting skills is amazing." Ronald looked at Demi Moore. This woman spent all the money she earned from commercials on acting schools and When buying good-looking clothes, don’t hesitate to invest in yourself. \u003c/p\u003e

"We will call your agent then." Seeing Ronald still thinking, Julia Taylor said on his behalf that you can leave.

\u003c/p\u003e

Demi rubbed her hand on the back of Ronald's hand, then used two fingers to imitate walking like a little person, and made a mark on Ronald's arm. "Okay, I'll be filming here with Bruce these days. You can also find me upstairs."\u003c/p\u003e

Then she stood up and walked out. \u003c/p\u003e

"So what do you think?" Ronald asked casting director Julia Taylor, sitting motionless in the audition chair. \u003c/p\u003e

"The part of the white swan is very good. She has the temperament of a professional woman, very smart and very sexy." Julia Taylor wrote a comment on the audition form. "However, the previous part of the ugly duckling seemed too young. She seemed to have had a period of dissatisfaction when she was young, so she used emotional memory when performing the bullied secretary, and she did not seem as sophisticated as a working girl who is about to turn 30."\u003c /p\u003e

"Do you think she can act well?" Ronald asked. \u003c/p\u003e

"She has talent, and she is the best actress among celebrities."\u003c/p\u003e

Julia Taylor began to pack up audition materials, and she will meet several female stars in Los Angeles these days, such as Michelle Pfeiffer, Mel Streep and others. \u003c/p\u003e

"Where are you going next?" Julia Taylor asked Ronald. \u003c/p\u003e

"I'm going to the premiere of Spielberg's new film, and many of my old friends from China are also coming."\u003c/p\u003e

"Okay, let's split up, and I'll call you when I see who's suitable for the role of Tess."\u003c/p\u003e

This was also a relatively small time for Julia Taylor to be involved in casting stars, rather than choosing based on which actor was best suited to play the role. There are things she is learning too. \u003c/p\u003e

After Taylor left the audition room, Ronald stood up, covered the fly of his pants with the script, and moved towards the door. Demi Moore is really charming, but she has a boyfriend, which will cause trouble. \u003c/p\u003e

The premiere of "Empire of the Sun" premiered at Lu Shanji's Westwood Cinema. There were many stars in attendance, and Ronald also saw the young and somewhat shy leading actor, boy Christian Bale. \u003c/p\u003e

"Chris, did you come alone?" Ronald was very happy to see the young actor and patted his head. \u003c/p\u003e

"Mr. Li, I originally agreed to come with Mr. Spielberg, but he was temporarily busy."\u003c/p\u003e

"Oh, let's take a photo." Ronald and the young actor were about to take a photo, and then went inside to watch this epic movie shot in Jiading. \u003c/p\u003e

"Photographer, come and take a picture of us first!" A very tall man, about the same height as Ronald, with a ponytail, shouted to the cameraman to take pictures of himself and a beautiful woman. \u003c/p\u003e

The beauty is Kelly LeBrock, the star of the hit erotic comedy "The Lady in Red" two years ago. She wore a black and white plaid top today and looked very fresh. \u003c/p\u003e

"Kelly?" Ronald greeted the beauty. \u003c/p\u003e

"Ronald, it's so nice to see you here..." Kelly LeBrock hugged Ronald tightly, and her good figure crawled into her arms. \u003c/p\u003e

"Hey, hey, don't get in the way here." The man with the ponytail came over to talk. He called the photographer and prepared to take a photo of himself and Kelly LeBrock. \u003c/p\u003e

"Are you Sly's bodyguard?" Ronald recognized this person. When he was at CAA, he was Stallone's bodyguard. Unexpectedly, he has now switched to being a bodyguard for Kelly LeBrock? \u003c/p\u003e

But he was obviously trying too hard. Kelly LeBrock obviously wanted to talk to Ronald about the heroine of the new movie that everyone in Hollywood is talking about. \u003c/p\u003e

"I now work for Mr. Michael Ovitz." The bodyguard immediately denied that he was not Kelly LeBrock's bodyguard. His clients were much bigger than hers. \u003c/p\u003e

"Okay, you guys are busy." Ronald wondered, could it be that Ovitz, the boss of CAA, wanted to keep a beautiful star? This female star is obviously too coquettish and does not suit Tess's temperament. But if Ovitz were her sponsor, he would definitely come to her door. \u003c/p\u003e

"No, you misunderstood, Ronald." Kelly LeBrock came over to explain, "This is my new husband, Steven Seagal."\u003c/p\u003e

"I not only work as a bodyguard for Mr. Ovitz, but I am also his Aikido coach. He has promised to invest in a movie for me, an action movie..." Steven Seagal walked closer to the two movies and looked at Ronald, as if It's like choosing people to devour. \u003c/p\u003e

Ronald took half a step back and took a wrestling defensive stance. Is this guy mentally ill? \u003c/p\u003e

"Hey, Stephen, don't do this..." His wife Kelly LeBrock stopped him immediately. \u003c/p\u003e

"I just want to see how much he weighs..." Sigel was relatively gentle to his wife. Then two eyes looked at Ronald's footsteps with disdain. \u003c/p\u003e

Steven Seagal was actually very nervous about his wife's warm embrace of Ronald. This female star was his stepping stone into the upper class circles of Hollywood. \u003c/p\u003e

Kelly LeBrock's ex-husband is a restaurant owner and very wealthy. He invested in several of his wife's movies and worked as a producer. \u003c/p\u003e

As a result, Steven Seagal took advantage of the situation, took advantage of the situation, and made Kelly LeBrock pregnant with his child. Then they divorced quickly, and then married Sigel after giving birth to a daughter. \u003c/p\u003e

Because Steven Seagal is a man who wants to gain power, he is very concerned about his wife's intimate behavior with other men. He is very skilled in this method of picking up girls. The reason why he was able to become the only Westerner to obtain a master's certificate in Japanese Aikido was because he took away his master's daughter and became his son-in-law to obtain the true teaching. \u003c/p\u003e

Ronald looked at the Aikido posture that looked more beautiful than actual combat, and he was not afraid at all. Although he had neglected wrestling practice in recent years, he would not be attacked if he was prepared. \u003c/p\u003e

"Hi, Ronald." As the two were confronting each other, CAA's Michael Ovitz came over, "I'm about to introduce to you, this is the future action star that our CAA values ​​very much, Steven Seagal. , he is a certified master of the Aikido Japanese Foundation Aikido School, and is the only Western Aikido master who can teach apprentices.\u003c/p\u003e

"We just met, excuse me." Ronald nodded politely and walked away. \u003c/p\u003e

"He..." Ovitz could clearly see that Siegel's old habit had returned. He's always teasing other people in the industry with half-truths like this. Some people would play tricks on him out of their mystery about Japanese martial arts. \u003c/p\u003e

But this time, he made the mistake of admitting it. This stupid boy has obviously offended Ronald, so he should be careful not to give this stupid boy too much budget. \u003c/p\u003e

"Wait a minute, don't take pictures of me." Ovitz stopped the photographer from taking pictures of himself and stepped away. As the boss of an agency, he keeps a low profile and never steals the spotlight from celebrities. ”\u003c/p\u003e

After entering the screening room, Ronald separated from Little Bell and went to the back to find a seat next to the aisle where no one was paying attention and sit down, waiting for the screening of "Empire of the Sun". \u003c/p\u003e

This is the first time for Ronald to watch the full version of "Empire of the Sun". It is also a small-scale award-winning film released during the awards season like "The Last Emperor". \u003c/p\u003e

Spielberg's most admired film director is Britain's David Lean, and Lean's epic films are Spielberg's favorite. \u003c/p\u003e

Ronald could clearly see that some of the shooting techniques for this film were formally learned from David Lean's "Lawrence of Arabia", "A Passage to India" and other films, and then integrated into Spielber's In Gertrude's unique movie tone. \u003c/p\u003e

"Tsk..." After seeing the back part, Ronald didn't like the movie a little bit. \u003c/p\u003e

The main plot of the movie is actually a child from a British family played by Christian Bale. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, he was sent to a camp by the Japanese army. \u003c/p\u003e

However, there is another hidden main line in this movie that Spielberg did not state clearly, waiting for experienced audiences to discover it on their own. \u003c/p\u003e

This implicit main line is the journey of the protagonist Jamie Graham to find his father. \u003c/p\u003e

In other words, this is a process of finding a spiritual and spiritual father. \u003c/p\u003e

Britain was badly beaten in the Pacific War. The largest surrender since the founding of the country took place in Singapore in Asia. \u003c/p\u003e

So at the beginning of the movie, the protagonist Jamie gradually began to abandon British culture and began to get close to it, and even liked the neat military uniforms and shiny riding boots of the Japanese. \u003c/p\u003e

And when the Japanese were beaten to pieces by the US military in the Pacific, Jamie began to look for a third father, America. Even his nickname was changed to the Americanized Jim. \u003c/p\u003e

At the end of the movie, when Ronald made a meaningless tut, it was the protagonist "Jim" at the end of the movie who saw a strong flash of light from the Pacific Ocean in Xujiahui, which was the light of the atomic bomb exploding in Japan. \u003c/p\u003e

In the end, the protagonist Jamie Graham completed the spiritual adventure of finding his father and was rescued by the American army. He also received the beer and chocolate airdropped by the American army, which symbolized the wealth and fame. \u003c/p\u003e

"Why, you really don't like the way this section was handled?"\u003c/p\u003e

Next to the dark aisle, a tall man with a baseball cap and unshaven beard asked Ronald. \u003c/p\u003e

"Stephen?" Ronald recognized the director Spielberg, who was also hiding behind him. \u003c/p\u003e

"Shh..." Spielberg gestured to Ronald. He had sneaked out to watch his premiere. He happened to see Ronald watching too, and wanted to chat with him after it was over. . \u003c/p\u003e

"Why weren't you at the door just now?" Ronald looked at Spielberg. The movie genius was wearing sloppy clothes and seemed to be wearing two pairs of socks. \u003c/p\u003e

"It's not convenient for me to be seen by reporters. They will ask me a lot of questions."\u003c/p\u003e

"Oh, OK", Ronald couldn't figure out what happened for a moment. \u003c/p\u003e

"Tell me then why you are not satisfied with that paragraph."\u003c/p\u003e

"I think it's okay, just a bit unexpected."\u003c/p\u003e

"So there is a problem? Tell me, what is our relationship? When I got married, you were still my best man." It was obvious that Spielberg was in something wrong. \u003c/p\u003e

Ronald thought for a while, but said it bluntly, "Actually, Xujiahui couldn't see the nuclear explosion over Hiroshima. Wouldn't it be a bit illusory to deal with it this way?"\u003c/p\u003e

"This is a boy's dream. I want to deal with it this way, maybe it can give a powerful ending like Lawrence of Arabia. It requires a giant to crack his whip, and the protagonist can discover that it is impossible for nomadic tribes like the Arabs to build an empire. The British people can only look for spiritual..."\u003c/p\u003e

"Rely on (Dad) mentally..."\u003c/p\u003e

"Yes, what do you think of it?"\u003c/p\u003e

"It's okay. I'm worried that if there are knowledgeable film critics, they will point out your minor flaw."\u003c/p\u003e

"It doesn't matter, my mind is very confused right now. This is the best ending I can come up with. Compared to David Lean, the epic ending is still a little bit worse."\u003c/p\u003e

Spielberg even muttered a few words, and David Lean went into semi-retirement after filming Journey to India in 1984. He really wants to replace him and become a top director of epic films, and then win the Oscar for Best Director. \u003c/p\u003e

After the movie ended, the two sneaked out of the back door. Ronald whistled and asked Bud to drive the car from the opposite side of the street. \u003c/p\u003e

"Shall I take you back?" Ronald asked Spielberg in the car. \u003c/p\u003e

"Do you have a beer somewhere?"\u003c/p\u003e

"Ah? There must be one. Let's go to the bar below the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel. The Schlitz original beer there is pretty good."\u003c/p\u003e

"Would you like to call Amy?" Ronald thought of Spielberg's wife, actress Amy Irving. \u003c/p\u003e

"Forget it, we're quarreling again." Spielberg picked up the beer the waiter brought and drank it in one gulp. \u003c/p\u003e

It turns out that after Amy Irving gave birth to Spielberg's son Max, she always wanted to return to the film industry and continue her career as an actress. \u003c/p\u003e

Spielberg believes that his son is still young and needs his mother's company. \u003c/p\u003e

The two have been having a bit of a quarrel recently. CAA's Michael Ovitz also wanted to help mediate their relationship, but Spielberg didn't want outsiders to interfere in his private affairs. Only Ronald, the best man invited at the wedding that year, , we can chat for a few words. \u003c/p\u003e

"It seems that directors have to be careful when marrying female stars." Ronald didn't expect to see two marital conflicts today. Hollywood is really a place where people are obsessed with life and money, and the Puritan moral code that he grew up in is very different from the coastal Puritan ethics he grew up in. Quite a big difference. \u003c/p\u003e

Send Spielberg back to his mansion in Malibu, which Spielberg bought specifically for his wife. \u003c/p\u003e

Seeing Amy Irving instructing the servants to approach Spielberg, Ronald shook his head. This marriage must be done with caution. \u003c/p\u003e

Back at the hotel, Ronald was getting ready to wash up when the phone rang. \u003c/p\u003e

"Ronald, did you watch TV?" That's Julia Taylor over there. \u003c/p\u003e

"What's the matter? I haven't had time yet."\u003c/p\u003e

"NBC Channel 5, rebroadcast entertainment news, your star heroine candidate has just filed for divorce."\u003c/p\u003e

"Ah? The news came out so quickly?" Ronald was shocked, "Can Amy play Tess?"\u003c/p\u003e

"What Amy, I'm talking about Madonna..."\u003c/p\u003e

Ronald found the rebroadcast channel. Many reporters and the TV station's helicopter were waiting anxiously at the door of Madonna and Sean Penn's house. A man who looked like a lawyer came out. \u003c/p\u003e

"Hi, after two years of tumultuous marriage, my client, Ms. Madonna Ciccone, decided to formally file for divorce in Los Angeles District Court."\u003c/p\u003e
