The sun gradually turned to the west, and finally fell below the sea level. All the lights at the entrance of Wave Manor were suddenly turned on, so that the crowded entrance was clearly visible.
Hundreds of reporters and paparazzi gathered at the entrance of the manor. I don’t even know which TV stations. Even the TV broadcast vans drove over. They all aimed their cameras at the inside of the manor. I saw several beams of light shooting up into the sky from the garden behind the villa, and there was the faint sound of music floating over with the sea breeze.
It's a pity that no matter how hard they tried, they could only take pictures of the villa through the wrought iron gate, and couldn't take pictures of the garden hidden behind the villa.
It's not that no reporter thought about sneaking in, but seeing the burly security guards, they could only dispel these unreliable thoughts.
On the other side of the wrought-iron gate, just at the gate, there are nearly ten security personnel standing guard against reporters and paparazzi, absolutely not allowing them to cross the threshold.
In the back garden, the brief engagement ceremony was over. Murphy and Gal Gadot cut the cake together, and stood in front of the microphone on the stage amidst the booing of friends.
"Murphy, say something!"
The voice on the lawn was clearly Robert Downey Jr.'s voice, "Hurry up, tell me how you feel now!"
Margot Robbie standing below the stage was also booing, "And Gail!"
Murphy took a step back and pushed Gal Gadot to the front, "You go first."
"Quiet! Be quiet!"
Jonah Hill took the initiative to act as a maintainer of order, and less than thirty people came to the engagement party, and the backyard immediately fell silent.
Gal Gadot, wearing a moon-white evening dress, stood in front of the microphone, seemed a little excited, took a deep breath, and said, "I enjoy it very, very, very much, happiness is really a wonderful feeling .”
After speaking, she gently wiped the corners of her eyes without letting the tears roll down.
There was a burst of applause from below the stage. All the people present were relatives and friends. Murphy was not polite, pulled up Gal Gadot, came to the microphone, and said directly, "Gal is really special, I am really lucky, She has been supportive and accommodating in everything I do and proposing to her is the smartest move I have ever made!"
There are some words, there is no need to say more, Murphy just said a few words, and then led Gal Gadot down.
"Congratulations, Murphy!"
"Congratulations, Murphy, Gail!"
"You are a match made in heaven!"
"No one is more suitable for each other than you!"
"You are destined to be together!"
"When will the wedding be held, remember to inform us!"
Taking a turn at the party, Murphy and Gal Gadot received a slew of well wishes.
Now that the party has progressed, all the official ceremonies are over, and some people who are busy with work and affairs have left in advance.
For example, Robert Downey Jr., who just came back from Atlanta in the afternoon, will take a plane back tonight, and will continue filming "Iron Man 3" tomorrow.
"You have to do things for someone's salary." Jonah Hill deliberately joked, "Downie is now getting the first salary of a Hollywood actor, and he can't help himself at work."
Murphy is naturally aware of this situation, and will not force Robert Downey Jr. to stay.
As the night darkened, most of the guests took their leave and left, leaving only Stanton's party members. Murphy simply led a few people out of the somewhat cold garden and entered the restaurant inside the villa. Gal Gadot greeted the servants to serve them. Come for snacks and drinks, and all the buddies chat while drinking.
The topics of the few people are all over the place, and they can say whatever comes to mind. They are friends with each other and don't have so many scruples.
"When I went to Brown University to promote "The End of the World" some time ago, I met Emma." Seth Rogen talked about Emma Watson, who had recently gotten close to the Stanton party members, "Emma also I changed my boyfriend, which number is this year?"
Murphy raised his glass,
He raised his hand to everyone, and said before drinking, "You should ask Emma about this kind of thing."
Just like many Hollywood male stars frequently change their girlfriends, this kind of thing is also very common for female stars. Emma Watson is young, beautiful and rich, so it’s no big deal to find a few more handsome young men who suit her appetite of.
"By the way..." Murphy turned the topic of going astray into the Pacific Ocean back to the business, and asked, "Seth, how is the box office of "The End of the World" recently?"
A few days ago, he was thinking about the cooperation with Netflix. These days, he was preparing for the engagement party, and he didn't pay much attention to the box office progress of "The End of the World".
"It was relatively smooth, better than we expected." Seth Rogen put down his glass and said roughly, "Recently, it was the Thanksgiving holiday, and the film's box office trend was stable. After the first weekend, as of last Friday night, the box office The cumulative total has exceeded 100 million US dollars.”
There was irrepressible excitement in his tone, "As long as the next month's screenings don't experience a plunge like that of "Thor", the final North American box office will definitely exceed 200 million US dollars!"
For a shit comedy, the North American box office of $200 million can be said to be a huge hit.
"What about overseas?" Lily Collins asked with concern.
"Overseas releases only started this week." Seth Rogen adjusted his glasses. "There are no specific statistics yet, but overseas box office is definitely not as good as North America."
James Franco nodded, "It can be said that it has exploded in character if it can match the box office in North America."
Everyone else agreed.
The reality lies here. Compared with sci-fi films, action films, fantasy films, epic war films, and comic-adapted films, feces and fart comedies are beyond the scope of Europe and the United States, and it is difficult to gain wider recognition.
No way, this is the inevitable cultural difference.
When Murphy lived on the other side of the ocean, he didn't understand what was so funny about some popular American comedies. He was confused about those jokes, but the blonde foreigners always watched them with gusto.
"Now Seth and I have received invitations from many companies." Jonah Hill is quite proud, "The two of us are now hot comedy directors and producers."
Seth Rogen said, "Choose your films carefully."
Murphy nodded in agreement, "Seth is right, the established reputation cannot be easily squandered."
"Otherwise..." James Franco continued, "it will be like the Douglas and his sons."
Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, James Franco and Murphy smiled knowingly.
Gal Gadot knows that these guys are not as harmless as they look, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get out of countless competitors and achieve today's success.
Lily Collins seemed bored, stood up and said, "Gail, last time you said you had a new fitness room, let's go and have a look."
"Okay." Gal Gadot greeted the rest of the women, "Susan, Lauren, let's go together."
Susan Downey and Lauren Miller followed her and Lily Collins as they left the small ballroom.
After the women left, Murphy and the others became more unscrupulous and chatted about a lot of interesting gossip in the circle, such as the Scarlett Johansson affair some time ago, 20th Century Fox's promotion of the "X-Men" series Concocted Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult fake romance...
In fact, men's gossip is not much less than women's.
Although the former leaked large-scale photos, there is nothing too much to discuss. If this kind of thing is placed on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, it may bring a fatal blow to an actress, but it is no big deal in Hollywood. No one will take it seriously. , even fans are no exception.
This is the most obvious manifestation of cultural differences.
Even, because the large-scale photos of Scarlett Johansson were stolen by hackers, and Scarlett Johansson himself argued that the photos were taken for her husband Ryan Reynolds at the time, not only did she not attract too much criticism, but she won To the general sympathy of media public opinion and movie fans.
In some ways, the photo leaks have done more good than harm to Scarlett Johansson.
"You know what? Dave and Nicholas Hoult are great friends."
James Franco mysteriously talked about the second matter, it seems that there are insider information, Dave Franco is his younger brother, and like him, he is not out of the ordinary, "Nicholas Hoult He bragged to Dave that he and Jennifer Lawrence got involved with Jennifer Lawrence the day after they agreed to a fake relationship under the witness of their agent and lawyer."
Murphy and the others lacked interest, and Jonah Hill simply said, "Is there anything strange about this?"
"Of course!" James Franco said confidently, "Nicholas Hoult sent Dave a photo. He took it when he was done. This guy made a face for Jennifer Lawrence. She is the One of the hottest Oscar Best Actress candidates!"
"In recent years, this actress named Jennifer Lawrence has been rising rapidly." Seth Rogen sighed, "It's like becoming famous overnight."
Murphy shrugged and didn't say anything. The few of them have worked hard in a relatively low circle for many years before they achieved the current results. Seeing such a lucky girl, it is inevitable to feel a little emotional.
Moreover, there have been rumors in the circle recently that Harvey Weinstein is planning to give Jennifer Lawrence a big boost this awards season. Although this fat Jewish man's ability to manage the Oscars is not as good as it was back then, it should not be underestimated.
Of course, everyone knows that people like Harvey Weinstein never do deals for free or at a loss.
The few people kept chatting until it was close to twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, drank three bottles of wine, and then left under the leadership of their female companions. Jonah Hill, who had no female companion and drank too much alcohol, Murphy simply let him stay. down.
After the engagement party, Murphy quickly returned to work. In addition to cooperating with 20th Century Fox's publicity, he was always concerned about the negotiations with Netflix.
