Chapter 430： versatile

The dazzling sun hung in the sky and gradually turned to the south. A black Bentley elegant turned onto Wilshire Street and slowly stopped at the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel.

David parked the car and looked in the rearview mirror. The girl in the back seat was drowsy, as if she hadn't rested well last night.

"Miss Lavigny." He reminded softly: "The Four Seasons Hotel is here."

Avril Lavigne woke up from her doze, rubbed her eyes, looked outside the car window, and said, "Okay, thank you."

Opened the car door and jumped straight down. Just when her foot touched the ground, she frowned slightly, twisted her aching waist, and walked towards the front entrance of the hotel.

David watched Avril Lavigne enter the hotel before starting the car and leaving.

"Another female star has fallen." David muttered to himself: "The boss is so happy, first a supermodel, then a star actor, and now there is a singer..."

It's just that this little girl looks young, I don't know if she is 18 years old.

David shook his head and didn't think about it anymore. He got used to this kind of things too much.

As soon as Avril Lavigne entered the hotel lobby, someone hurriedly came to meet her.

The agent stopped Avril and asked: "Ivy! Where did you go last night?"

Avril Lavigne yawned and said nonchalantly: "I went to my friend."

"What friend?" The agent pulled towards the resting place: "Stay all night?"

Avril Lavigne reminded: "Slow down! Slow down! I'm not feeling well."

When I came to the resting place where almost no one was sitting, the agent looked at Avril up and down, the smoky makeup was gone, the clothes seemed to be different from when she was sent to the banquet yesterday, and the spirit seemed not very good, just like last night. Stayed up all night.

The agent frowned: "Where did you go last night? I called you and didn't answer."

Avril Lavigne waved her hand: "I went to a friend and drank all night."

The agent asked again: "What friends? Men and women?"

"Man." Avril Lavigne said patiently: "Friends who have known me a long time ago, don't worry, am I back here?"

Although Ronan changed the car to Burbank halfway because of the company's urgent business, and did not personally send her back, Avril felt that last night was very interesting and had a great time.

Drinking is very hilarious, wine is really a good thing.

What did the agent mean, and solemnly said: "Ivy! You are only eighteen years old, this kind of thing..."

"Alright!" Avril was finally annoyed by the saying, "I know what I'm doing, ok?"

Although she removed her smoky makeup, she was still a punk witch: "I am an adult, and I know what I am doing, and I will be responsible for what I do."

The agent was still worried: "Ivy..."

Avril Lavigne said directly: "I'm not a kid anymore! Let it go, I'm sleepy, and I want to go back to the room to make up for sleep.

After finishing talking, leaving the agent's ugly face alone, he left the rest area and entered the elevator room.

The agent wanted to follow up, pondered for a while, but still held back. Seeing Avril's figure disappeared, he suddenly understood something.

Avril Lavigne is no longer the Avril Lavigne the company had just signed. I knew she was a girl with a distinctive personality, but she rarely caused trouble because she didn't have the capital to make trouble.

But it's different now...

At Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio, Ronan and Chris Leonard are standing in front of a computer, and the computer is playing the animated short "Peppa Pig".

With the opening of the film, a childish voice sounded.

"I'm Peppa, hum; this is my brother George, hum; this is my mother, hum; this is my father..."

"Little Pig Page", Shahai Entertainment used to impact this year's Oscar's best animated short film.

Since it is an animated short film, it must not be long, less than eight minutes.

"The sound of my stomach growling is one of nature's most beautiful sounds, which means it's time to eat..."

The animated short film is not only highly completed, but even the lines are designed very interesting.

The whole plot revolves around the happy experience of Peppa Pig and his family, which is humorous and interesting, to promote traditional family concepts and friendship and encourage children to experience life.

At the end of the show, Chris Leonard asked: "Is there any hope of getting the best animated short film Golden Man?"

Ronan thought for a while and said, "I have officially declared the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film. There is no problem in getting nominated. I still have to work hard to win the award."

Chris Leonard is more than just an animation director, saying: "The animation series has already begun production, and getting the best animated short film Golden Man is good for subsequent promotion."

Ronan said: "I have people doing public relations, sometimes it still depends on a little luck to win."

A lot of work has already been done. In fact, the Oscar's best animated short film is one of the most popular awards, and there are not many contestants.

Ronan has already inquired that the only animated short films currently registered are "Cathedral" from Poland, "Toushan" from the island country, "Roulette" from Germany, "Big Eye Boy's New Car" from Pixar Studios, and Sha Hai "Little Pig Peppa" by Entertainment Animation Studio.

It's almost the end of December, which is the deadline for Oscar registration. Even if there are new competitors, there won't be too many.

Because of inertial thinking, Ronan believes that the strongest competitor should be Pixar's "Big Eye Boy's New Car".

That group of people at Pixar Studio is really annoying sometimes.

However, Ronan also heard some favorable news. Pixar Studio only declared for the Oscar for Best Animated Animation Award, and did not invest any resources for it.

This is very beneficial to Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio.

Ronan and Chris Leonard discussed the Oscar awards, and then went to the studio's two animation teams to take a look.

The former is busy producing an animated series of "Little Pig Peppa".

The latter has already started the preparations for the "Little Yellow Man" short film, and even the set artwork has been completed.

Because of Ronan's existence, the image of Xiaohuang people is basically the same as before.

Its main setting is to sell cheap, sell stupid, and sell cute.

Ronan also gave Shahai Entertainment's screenwriter a brief story, asking them to complete the script of "Despicable Me" in the first quarter of 200.

For animated feature films, although the script is also the basis, it is not as important as ordinary movies, especially for computer animation feature films, where technology is more critical.

The technology of Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio is certainly not comparable to Pixar's group, and even has a gap with DreamWorks Animation Studio. Among a series of Hollywood animation studios, it is a third-rate level.

Ronan didn't worry too much. He planned to let "Despicable Me" continue to take the route of lighting and entertainment. It doesn't matter whether the technology is almost and the roughness of the picture is not relevant. He must form his own characteristics.

And the biggest feature of the film undoubtedly comes from the minions.

Coming to the director's office of the animation studio, Ronan said to Chris Leonard: "Has the promotion plan for Peppa Pig been drawn up?"

Chris Reynard said: "Embassy Pictures is responsible for this aspect of business. We are communicating with them. The idea of ​​Embassy Pictures is to wait for the animated short film to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film and even win the award, and then make detailed Publicity and promotion plan."

Ronan nodded: "That's good, the Oscar effect is still useful."

If the Oscars had no commercial effect, there wouldn't be so many people who would be almost crazy into the Oscar's fight.

"We plan to make 0 episodes first in the first season." Chris Leonard added: "The total production investment is only 1.5 million US dollars..."

"Yes." Ronan had no objection, and asked instead, "Is Peppa's voice actor okay?"

Chris Leonard seemed very satisfied and said: "The performance is very good! It was beyond our expectations! Little Taylor not only has a good voice, but also has many talents, especially singing and playing piano. He has been trained and trained at professional level. ."

He smiled and said: "We plan to add some singing and playing piano plots to the series. These can be done by little Taylor himself."

Ronan said: "It seems that Taylor has good potential."

Chris Reynard said: "I talked to Mr. Swift. Taylor has already started to correct his teeth and is also shaping his body After the show is broadcast, we can hold some activities to let Taylor sings live, the effect must be very good."

Ronan reminded: "Taylor is not an adult yet. No matter what activities he does, he must communicate with Scott in advance."

Chris Leonard is also an old man in Hollywood and said, "I understand."

Ronan added: "Communicate with me in time if you have any questions."

After leaving Shahai Entertainment, Ronan returned to the office of Relativity Entertainment. Just after taking care of the work at hand, Connie came in and said that Tom Cruise was here and was waiting for him in the reception room.

Ronan hurried to the reception room.

"Why did you come to me, Tom?" Ronan asked casually.

Tom Cruise said with a smile: "Why, not welcome?"

Ronan hugged him: "How could it be unwelcome, if others want to invite you, but you won't be invited."

Tom Cruise sat on the solo sofa and said, "I have something to ask you for today. I need your help."

Ronan was also not polite to him: "What is our relationship? It's useful to tell me."

"The college will distribute votes soon." Of course, Tom Cruise would not be polite to Ronan, and said directly: "You are also a member of the academy now, you can also influence many people, the box office of the best actor nomination, It must be given to me."

Ronan nodded: "No problem, can I give it to someone else if I don't give it to you?" He asked concerned: "How is your preparation?"

Tom Cruise sighed and said, "It's okay, I don't think it's a big problem to get the nomination. But the subject matter of the film is inferior."

Ronan knew that Tom Cruise used the "Minority Report" to redeem prizes this year, saying: "Science fiction is really not popular with the academy."
