Chapter 336 Friends also go to bed (5/10)
After entering the cinema, the premiere ceremony began. Link and Emma Stone, Stanley Tucci, Lisa Kudrow and other supporting actors, director Will Gulle gave a speech on the stage and accepted inquiries from the media. .
We all chatted about some behind-the-scenes stories about filming the movie.
Finally, Link and Emma Stone sang "We Go Together", one of the movie's interludes, on stage and received a round of applause.
“So nervous!”
After returning to her seat, Emma stared at the big screen that was about to be shown, her fingers tightly holding the hem of her skirt.
“What are you nervous about?”
“This is the first movie I’ve ever starred in.”
“This is also the first movie I’ve invested in, and I’m not nervous at all.”
Link leaned back on the seat very relaxedly, crossed his legs and swayed.
Emma Stone turned to look at him, blinked her big turquoise eyes, "Really?"
Link said, holding out his fist.
Emma Stone looked at him and found that he was indeed not nervous at all, "Yes, you make tens of millions of dollars a minute on stage. You only invested a few million dollars in this movie. Even if you lose, it won't be a big deal for you." A piece of cake."
The animation is only seven seconds long and was designed and produced by Pixar Animation Studio. It tells the story of movies changing the world.
"certainly!"
After hearing what Oliver said, the female president Marianne preached in school that the heroine was a dirty woman with broken shoes, and promoted the heroine as a negative example, so that everyone would isolate her.
After the credits are played, the movie officially enters its theme.
The heroine Olive makes up a lie that she is going on a date with a boy on the weekend in order to avoid a boring party at her best friend’s house.
Emma Stone bit her lower lip and bumped her petite fist against him.
In order to make her best friend believe it, she made up many details, including kissing and having sex, and her best friend mistakenly thought that she was not a virgin.
Link smiled lightly, but that was not the reason.
Link encouraged.
Their words happened to be overheard by the female president of the school's religious club. She was a conservative and advocated that girls should not have **** with boys before marriage. She believed that such girls were shabby and mean girls.
Now the film has an investment of 10 million, and the scale of publicity and screening is larger than the original, so the box office performance should not be bad.
The movie starts to show.
Oliver tried to explain, but no one believed her. In the process, Olive found that she had accidentally become a popular figure in the school, the topic queen, like a star.
She enjoyed this feeling so much that she started putting on makeup, wearing **** and revealing clothes, admitting that she was a broken shoe, and sewing a red ‘A’ on her clothes.
He remembered that this movie invested 8 million and earned nearly 80 million in global box office. It was also the movie that made Emma Stone famous. With this movie, she became one of the most popular stars in Hollywood.
“Don’t worry, even if the movie loses everything and doesn’t make a penny, I will continue to praise you. Remember, our goal is four Oscars for Best Actress, not just movie stars.”
Before the movie was played, the logo of Palm Beach Pictures was also displayed. A simple sailboat ran aground on the beach, and a video tape rolled off the ship. Then the beach became colorful and was later condensed into a film.
Before its release, he watched the internal test screening of "Scandal Project", which was similar to what he had seen before. In addition, the addition of himself as a celebrity also gave the movie more highlights.
After she became a star on campus, boys were proud to date her and rushed to date her. They also gave her many benefits, including gays, men with low self-esteem, unpopular fat people and other vulnerable groups.
In order to help these face-conscious boys, she agreed to fake dates with them, and even pretended to sleep with the boys at a party.
This also made her more famous in school.
Until later, a boy had an affair with a school teacher and contracted a sexually transmitted disease. In order to cover up their relationship, they falsely accused him of being infected by the heroine.
Things started to go bad. The heroine wants to restore her reputation, but finds that all the people she helped have disappeared.
In the end, the heroine found the husband of the cheating teacher, exposed the truth, posted a clarification video on the Internet, restored her reputation, and got together with the school girl Todd played by Link.
This movie is also called "Modern Scarlet Letter" and tells the story of a girl's clarification and redemption after being slandered.
Different from the original tragedy The Scarlet Letter, "Scandal Project" is a campus comedy with an interesting plot design and a lot of laughs.
During the movie screening, there was laughter from time to time in the cinema.
“It looks pretty good, Link. How come you don’t even know how to invest in movies?”
Next to him, De La Hoya, who was invited to support him, asked.
“Is this difficult?”
“Isn’t it difficult?”
“No, you just need to find a good script, contact a few good producers, directors, and actors, and be serious when shooting, and the box office of the movie will not be bad.”
"You must be kidding. Every year, Hollywood screenwriters produce tens of thousands of scripts, and only dozens of them can make money after being filmed. They also select directors and actors. Do you think you can find the right person casually? I I have invested in movies before and lost millions.”
De La Hoya shook his head and said.
"That's because you have poor vision. If you are interested in investing in movies, you can consider joining Palm Beach Pictures. I will guide you and I will ensure that you will not lose money."
Link said.
De La Hoya is also a billionaire whose businesses include Golden Boy Boxing Promotions, a magazine publishing company, an apparel company, and a Spanish-language television channel. He is also one of the most commercially successful boxers in boxing.
“Sounds good, but I want to see how the movie does at the box office first. I hope you won’t lose money on this movie.”
De La Hoya said.
"of course not!"
Pap, pah, pah! After the movie screening ended, there were bursts of warm applause, and some people shouted "cool" and "awesome".
Link also stood up and applauded, congratulating Emmas. Emma is the heroine of this movie. She made the greatest contribution to the success of the movie.
In the movie, Link is just a warm guy and a flower vase, responsible for his appearance and fame.
“Boss, I don’t think we should be happy too early. Some things may happen if we are happy too early, and accidents may happen later. We should wait until the first week’s box office results are released before we are happy.”
Emma Stone said excitedly and nervously.
“You’re too anxious. Before the filming of “The Help” starts, do you want to take a vacation and travel? The company will reimburse all expenses.”
"No! Boss, you are so good and work so hard. I should learn from you and take on a few more movies every year."
Emma Stone said.
Link nodded with satisfaction. If the Palm Bay Agency had a few more actors like Emma, he would be sure to earn hundreds of millions of dollars in the future just from the agency's shares.
After the premiere, Palm Beach Pictures held a party at the Hilton Garden Inn to entertain friends, crew members, and hundreds of media and film critics.
At the party, director Will Gurler approached him and said he had a new project on hand and asked him if he was interested in continuing to invest.
The new script is called "Bed with Friends". It tells the story of two handsome men and beautiful women living in a metropolitan city. Because of their good relationship, they decide to rent together and turn into lovers who never believed in love. It is a comedy. Love movies.
Link seems to have seen this movie. The male protagonist is "pop superstar" Justin Timberlake. Although his performance is average, the box office of this movie seems to have exceeded 100 million US dollars.
Link asked what the budget was for this movie?
Director Will Guler said that the male and female protagonists have not yet been decided. He plans to use a more popular star. The estimated cost is between 30 million and 50 million. He also asked if he is interested in playing the male protagonist?
Link thought for a while and decided to invest, but whether he will be cast as the male lead depends on the results of the "Captain America" audition. If he has time, it would be good to follow.
