Rebirth In Hollywood

After entering December, as popular movies were released one after another, the market competition became more and more fierce. Although "Blade Warrior" won a box office of nearly 28 million U.S. dollars in the second week, it failed to retain the top box office ranking. The US dollar investment is obviously not competitive when facing a super giant production of 130 million US dollars.

The success of "**** Day" made Roland Emmerich, like Michael Bay, one of the hottest directors of commercial films. Sony Columbia Pictures saw this and spent a huge amount of money to invite He served as the director of "Godzilla".

Sony Columbia Pictures obviously has full confidence in the monsters from the island country. It not only invited a director who is good at special effects production, but also paid 130 million U.S. dollars for the production cost and more than 50 million U.S. dollars for publicity and marketing expenses. It is necessary to use this to completely turn around and change the situation that among the seven major Hollywood film companies, it is only slightly better than MGM.

The film did not disappoint Sony Columbia Pictures in the first week, with a box office of more than 44 million U.S. dollars. Not only did it firmly occupy the top spot in the weekly box office rankings, but it also sparked a wave of monsters.

Sony Columbia Pictures naturally hopes that "Godzilla" will continue to be popular. It would be ideal if it can cause a continuous sensation like "Jurassic Park 2". Want to recover the cost?

However, most people in the Hollywood industry are looking down on this movie. First, Godzilla is a foreign object. Second, a week after "Godzilla" was released, Ryan Jenkins' latest masterpiece "Cast Away" "will be fully launched in North American theaters!

The reaction of the North American film market after entering the 1990s fully proved one thing. Be it monsters or aliens, when facing Ryan Jenkins, they are all scumbags that are vulnerable to a single blow...

Walking out of Disney's office building, Gene drove back home. Unknowingly. He has worked at Disney for four years and has seen Walt Disney and his idol firsthand. From a close cooperative relationship to a competitor.

No matter how Walt Disney changed, his support for Ryan never wavered.

When he got home, he had dinner with his father who came to Los Angeles to visit him. He simply cleared the dining table and went back upstairs to change into formal clothes.

"Dad, I got the ticket, we should go."

Hearing his son's words, Old Jean laughed brilliantly, "Hurry up, it's the first time I've attended a movie premiere."

Leave Burbank. Gene's car drove into Hollywood and circled around the Chinese Theater several times, but couldn't find a suitable parking lot, so he had to drive further away.

"Too many people come to the red carpet," he explained to his father.

"I know. Ryan..." Old Jean showed a clear look, "Your father hasn't become an antique yet, and he knows who Ryan Jenkins is. Not only you young people like his movies, we at this age people like it."

I finally found a suitable parking lot. Although it was a bit far from the Chinese Theater, it was still early, so I just walked there.

"Dad, what do you think of this movie?" The father and son chatted about the upcoming movie as they walked towards the theater.

"I don't know, the trailer doesn't show much." Old Gene shook his head, and suddenly said with certainty, "But I believe in Ryan, his movies have always been synonymous with wonderful."

"I believe him too." Gene clenched his fists.

"In the eyes of you guys, he is your god." Although Old Jean, like most people in this country, liked the young man very much, but he was not crazy, "You worship him too much. "

"Ryan is worthy of our admiration." Gene spread his hands to his father and began to tell the basic things, "He is kind, humble, possesses talent and talent, but at the same time, he never gives up his efforts, even now he has a net worth of hundreds of millions. I can't think of anyone better suited to represent the American dream than him."

Old Jean nodded unconsciously.

When he came to the red carpet of the Chinese Theater, Gene found that there were too many people gathered on both sides. At this time, it was impossible to grab a seat slightly in the front. In fact, he had no intention of crowding there. The premiere took the front row of the red carpet, and I'm afraid the queue has been here since last night.

At this moment, screams erupted around the red carpet that could almost cover the entire Hollywood area. Without looking, Gene knew that it must be Ryan walking on the red carpet.

He looked up at the giant movie poster hanging above the theater, it was a mature face that had gone through vicissitudes.

Through the gap between the crowd, I saw Ryan himself again, with a warm and friendly smile on his youthful and sunny face, completely different from the character on the movie poster.

Just like everyone on both sides of the red carpet, Gene always believes that Ryan can play every role well no matter how difficult it is.

"Let's go in?"

After old Gene nodded, Gene couldn't wait to take his father into the screening hall from another entrance, waiting for the movie to start.

Ryan casually answered a few questions from the reporter, then turned around and walked into the theater. As soon as he entered, he saw Leonardo DiCaprio and Gwyneth Paltrow standing near the door, as if making a special trip wait for him.

"Hi, Leon, Gwynnie."

After greeting the two, Ryan deliberately used a slightly exaggerated tone and asked, "Leon, how does it feel to be a superstar and a Golden Globe nominee?"

With "Shakespeare in Love", Leonardo was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Comedy.

"It's just great." Leonardo obviously knew that Ryan was joking, and he also used an exaggerated tone, "You know, Ryan, those models look at me more crazy than before."

Ryan patted Leonardo's arm, then turned to the blonde in a moon-white dress, "Long time no see, Gwynnie."

"Yeah, Gwynnie's been busy, she turned down my invitation the last time we had a party."

Probably seeing Ryan, Drew Barrymore came over. Her attitude towards Gwyneth Paltrow was far less intimate than that of Girls' Generation, "Congratulations, Gwyneth, Golden Globe Best Nominated for Lead Actress in a Comedy."

"Thank you!" Gwyneth raised her jaw slightly.

Ryan heard people say that in 1996, the two women had a big quarrel over the shares of Huahua Pictures, and finally even alarmed their godfather Spielberg. In the end, Gwyneth just made a Minority shareholders have no right to speak.

Drew suddenly lowered his voice, "If the godfather and Uncle Paltrow are willing to come forward, maybe you can win the Golden Globe."

It sounds like she is mocking Gwyneth Paltrow, but she is actually helping her former sisters with her ideas.

Gwyneth Paltrow's eyes flickered. As a Hollywood actress from a family background, how could she not understand? Needless to say, the father will definitely help, but the meaning of the godfather is not very clear.

"Sorry, I have other things to do."

Although his position is biased towards Drew, Ryan is not interested in the grievances between the two women, "You guys continue to talk."

"Forget it, I'll go find Paris and Scarlett." Drew left first.

"Ryan." Leonardo suddenly approached and whispered, "After the New Year, Victoria's Secret will hold an event in New York. It is said that many newly signed models will appear."

"We'll talk about it later." Ryan waved his hand.

The party before the premiere was much the same, with Ryan walking around to say hello and occasionally stop to chat.

"Ryan, we should put "Mission: Impossible 2" on the agenda." It was Shirley Lansing who spoke.

Although "Mission: Impossible" is still far from the next stage, but such an obviously profitable movie, the producers will not let go of the opportunity to make a sequel.

"Jenkins Films is preparing." Ryan stopped and said a few words, "I asked Julius to find a suitable director."

In fact, Baige? Wu has agreed to be the director of the second episode of this series.

If the second episode is successful, Baige? Wu will further improve his status and obtain more rights. Maybe he will have the final editing rights for the next film.

By the way, his next movie seems to be "Windtalker", right?

Ryan scratched his head. He couldn't remember which company produced the film, but it would definitely make the investors lose the urge to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge.

"Hey Ryan, what were you thinking again?"

A slender white hand rested on his arm, Ryan turned his head, and it was Charlize Theron who came.

"I was wondering if Tarzan could beat Godzilla," Ryan joked.

"By the way, Ryan, maybe you can give some advice."

While walking towards the quiet place, Charlize Theron said, "Director Peter Jackson sent an invitation to audition to my agent."

"he?"

Ryan was a little surprised. Peter Jackson had already confirmed that Cate Blanchett would play Kellan Trill.

"Yes." Charlize Theron nodded seriously and explained, "He invited me to audition for Arwen Evening Star."

"Arwen?" Ryan couldn't help but look at Charlize's blonde hair and blue eyes.

Well, it's too easy for blonde hair and blue eyes to turn into black hair and gray eyes, but why did Peter Jackson choose her as one of the candidates? It didn't seem like this happened in the previous life?

"This New Zealand fat man." Ryan shook his head subconsciously and muttered, "I haven't given Aragorn's reply until now, it seems that I have to put some pressure on him."

When he was planning to show his authority as an investor and producer on the basis of respecting the director, Charlize Theron's surprised voice sounded, "Aragorn? Could it be...you want to play Aragon?"

"Uh..." Ryan quickly came to his senses, "This is just my unilateral wish. Director Peter Jackson hasn't agreed yet." ()
