Chapter 257

"Of course we really hope to work with Ford, but he is not suitable for "Fengyue Pretty", this is a romantic film. Ford is better at playing the role of a lone hero, and it is difficult for him to spark the heroine."

...

"Be confident, Kevin, you are very familiar with Michael, and you have been preparing for so many years. No one in Hollywood is more familiar with how to shoot "Dancing with Wolves" than you. It's absolutely right that you are the director yourself."

...

"Mike, Orion's recent release of "Abbi's Adventures" has been good for the box office... Haha, you know what I mean, the share of "Pulp Novel" has been delayed for half a year. This movie has earned so much for you, I don't want everyone to make a big fuss."

...

"This year's Cannes jury chairman is Wim Wenders, who definitely prefers videos like "Sex, Lies and Video Cases". So, this time we don't fight for Palme d'Arra, and sometimes it's necessary to take the initiative to take the initiative to take the lead."

...

"Japan? Sandy, what do you care about in Japan? Girls should act, do spa, maintain themselves beautifully, and find a girlfriend if you have free time... Don't, everyone, just look at it, lady, just a little lady."

...

"Good evening, Bob and Martin, I'm glad to see you. How is that good guy going?"

...

"Terry, I heard that Martin Davis of Paramount is also very interested in Times. You may be in trouble... I, of course, I am very interested, but this is a big business. Daenerys Entertainment can't do it for the time being, so you can rest assured."

...

Inside the mountainside mansion in Palisade.

The cocktail party started at 7:30 pm. Hundreds of guests were scattered in groups of three or five in the spacious courtyard, but the atmosphere was not noisy at all. There was no strict time limit for the party. Some people were still coming, and some had already left early.

Simon was socializing in the crowd and was chatting with Terry Semer, while Nicole Kidman walked towards the two in full dress.

Terry Semer saw Nicole coming over, smiled and raised his glass to Simon, turning around and walking away.

Nicole Kidman came near Simon, concealing his guilt in his heart, and said as if nothing had happened: "Simon, is there anything wrong with calling me here?"

Simon took Nicole to the edge of the cliff, leaned against the railing and looked at the night view of Los Angeles at the foot of the mountain, and said, "Joe told me, you want to leave WMA, and you also hope to terminate the remaining two option contracts with Daenerys Entertainment?"

Nicole hesitated and plucked up the courage, "I'm very grateful for the opportunity you gave me in Pulp Novel, Simon, but I hope to be more free to plan my future."

Simon shook his head directly: "If you want to leave WMA, I won't stop you. However, you have to complete the remaining two options contracts with Daenerys Entertainment."

"Why do you need this? Simon, haven't you let Meg Ryan go?"

Simon was not moved by the pitifulness in Nicole's tone, stared at her eyes slightly, and said, "Danelles Entertainment terminated the contract with Meg Ryan, which does not mean that things have ended here. I don't have the mentality of wanting you to be grateful if you make it famous. This is very unrealistic in Hollywood. What I ask is that you will continue to fulfill your promises after success. I hate those who are unwilling to abide by the contract."

Nicole felt Simon's harsh tone and her momentum became weaker. Simon's words revealed that Meg Ryan's incident had not yet ended, which made her feel a little uneasy.

As he thought about it, Nicole quickly understood why Simon's attitude was so strong.

Because he is very good at discovering newcomers, Daenerys Entertainment now holds many option contracts. Simon is currently producing "Batman", which is said to have signed long-term contracts with both the male and female protagonists and the main supporting roles.

Daenerys Entertainment has terminated a choice contract with Meg Ryan. If she is let go this time, others will definitely do the same after they become popular in the future. A large number of choice contracts held by Daenerys Entertainment will become waste paper.

In order to protect its own interests, Daenerys Entertainment obviously cannot allow that situation to happen.

Thinking of this, Nicole couldn't help but worry for Meg Ryan. She realized that Daenerys Entertainment seemed to let the other party leave easily, but in fact she wanted to set a "model" for the latecomers and let them know the price of rashly breaking the contract.

Simon looked at the night view of the city at the foot of the mountain again, and after a moment, he asked in a faint tone: "Did you figure it out?"

Nicole nodded, her tone became weaker, and said, "I actually hope to continue working with Daenerys Entertainment, Simon, but I also hope that Daenerys Entertainment can provide me with a good enough opportunity."

"You want the heroine of "The Love of Man and Ghost", I know this, but this role is not suitable for you. I need a heroine with a more mature temperament. You are too young. The company is preparing for "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". You should play Epro O'Neal."

Nicole subconsciously raised her chin, but realized that Simon was not a negotiating tone this time.

Daenerys Entertainment has also asked her to read the script of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". The heroine of this movie is basically a vase of gags. From a big-name movie like "Pulp Novel", which has a double box office and art harvest, jumped to the vase. Even if "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" has a good box office in the future, it will be a regression for her.

"I, Simon, Jonathan seems to be fighting for this role for Erica Anderson?"

"Erika's qualifications are too shallow, I have rejected it," Simon shook his head and explained lightly, and then said, "If you don't want to, you can take a break."

What does it mean to take a break?

Abominable man!

Nicole secretly complained, but realized that she had no other choice. With Simon's current attitude, she forced a contract with Daenerys Entertainment. She would definitely face a long lawsuit. Not to mention that she had no money to deal with the lawsuit, even if she could pay and the lawsuit was delayed for a few years, the popularity she accumulated with "Pulp Novel" would be completely depressed.

When Simon heard Nicole's aggrieved response, he waved her to leave.

Drinking a cocktail by the railing alone, Simon was about to turn back to the crowd when another female voice sounded beside him: "Hi, Mr. Westeros."

Turning his head and looking at a brunette woman in a backless evening dress appeared in front of her, but it was Demi Moore.

Demi Moore was almost not well-known in Hollywood at this time, and the one who is slightly known is probably the identity of Bruce Willis's wife.

However, the relationship between the two seems to be too much of a Hollywood marriage agreement in Simon's opinion.

Many of Bruce Willis's screen images are the kind of tender and hard-working man who is desperate for his family, so he needs a marriage. It is not a coincidence that the two quickly got married during the filming of "Die Hard". In private, Lao Bu actually plays how he plays.

As for Demi Moore, it can be seen that her and Xiao Li had a sensational extramarital affair.

Thinking of this, Simon smiled and reached out to hold Demi Moore with a playful smile, and said deliberately: "Hello, Mrs. Willis."

Demi Moore didn't expect Simon to know him, but he quickly explained: "I didn't take my husband's surname, Simon, you can call me Demi."

Simon didn't care about Demi Moore's intimate name changed unconsciously and asked, "Didn't Bruce come?"

"He went to New York to record a TV show," Demi Moore explained casually, and asked again: "Simon, you must have seen the audition materials I prepared for "The Love of Man and Ghost", right?"

"Yes," Simon said without hiding it, "Congratulations first, Demi, you have successfully entered the last round of auditions."

Demi Moore's eyes showed joy, and instead thought of competitors such as Michelle Pfeiffer and Daryl Hanna in this project, she immediately realized that the possibility of her final role was very low.

Noting that the young man next to him was still looking at him. Thinking of the other party just recognized her identity at first sight, Demi Moore immediately made a decision. He approached Simon without realizing it, and looked over with his eyes, saying, "Simon, I think I should be more suitable for this role than others. How about we find a place to chat alone?"

Simon raised his eyebrows slightly, waved to signal the passing waiter to come over, changed into a cocktail, leaned against the railing and looked at it with a scrupulous look, "This is good, Demi, you can tell me your opinion on the role of Molly."

Looking at the man in front of him, how could Demi Moore not understand that he was teasing himself?

However, Simon did not feel qualified to put on airs, but just showed an angry expression and said, "Simon, you really don't understand women's thoughts."

Simon picked up the cocktail and took a sip, turned around and leaned against the railing, glanced around the crowd in the courtyard, raised the cup in his hand and signaled to the woman beside him: "Demi, assign a task for you, go to the crowd to find a companion, and then wait for me on the villa together. Remember, the second floor, turn left, and the third room."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Demi Moore's face, and after a moment, he finally said, "Simon, can I get the role?"

Simon shrugged: "I don't know, you can try it."

Demi Moore said carefully, "I thought you would be a man with great commitment."

"Of course I'm a man who has a strong commitment," Simon glanced at the woman beside him and said, "But I don't remember what promise I've made you."

After Simon finished speaking, he walked towards the crowd in the courtyard without waiting for Demi Moore to respond.

Demi Moore stood there and hesitated for a while, finally made a decision and left the railing. However, of course, she was not stupid enough to find a target at the cocktail party as Simon ordered, but instead went straight to the ICM president Marvin Josephson in the crowd.

After listening to Demi Moore's low-pitched narrative, Marvin Josephson showed no surprises or moral entanglements in his expression. He had experienced even the ridiculous and bizarre things in Hollywood, and Simon's request seemed ordinary to Josephson.

Moreover, Bruce Willis is WMA's client, and he doesn't need to consider anything for the other party.

After thinking for a moment, Marvin Josephson whispered to Demi Moore, "Famik went to New York and Helena happened to be in Los Angeles, how about it?"

Demi Moore knew that Josephson was talking about the two candidates of Wonder Woman, Famik Jansen and Helena Christensen. However, she was not familiar with these two girls and was completely unaware of each other's temperament. Tonight, we must find a "partner" who knows a little bit.

"Ma Wen, I'm not familiar with them."

"So, well, what about Joan Seiferens? You've seen her at the last time at Jeffrey's party."

Demi Moore continued to shake his head, thought for a while, and said, "Renee Russell, she should be able."

Marvin Josephson thought for a while and said, "This is Ed's client, and she seems to be a little older."

Demi Moore smiled and said, "So, I said she is suitable."

Marvin Josephson was stunned for a moment, and soon understood. He looked around the crowd for a moment, found the young man's figure, and nodded with a smile: "Indeed, okay, I'll call Ed now. I think that woman shouldn't refuse such an opportunity."

Simon didn't know that he had become the target of many people in Hollywood, and he wouldn't care too much if he knew it.

When he returned to Los Angeles, he has been single all the time.

Just now, if Demi Moore really finds a companion in the crowd, he doesn't mind relaxing tonight. As for the role of "The Love of Man and Ghost", Simon has already decided to use the original team, so that the success rate can be ensured to the greatest extent, and he doesn't have to spend too much effort on this project anymore.

With the rapid increase in assets under his name, Simon's current time is seriously insufficient.

More than an hour later, Simon was chatting with Joe Ross, who replaced Ronald Goldberg as president of Fox Films last year. Demi Moore appeared in his sight again, but she did not come here this time, but walked through his vision with another tall woman with a mature temperament, and then walked into the villa together.

Simon vaguely felt that the woman beside Demi Moore was a little familiar with her, but she didn't see her face and kept watching the two girls enter the villa, but she couldn't remember it.

Joe Russell noticed Simon's eyes, looked over together, and smiled and said, "Simon, do you want to get to know him?"

"No," Simon shook his head and said, "but, it seems that someone took advantage of the loophole."

"What?"

"Nothing, you just said Fox was going to film "Exorcist 3"?"

"Yes, Simon, do you want to read the script and give some advice?"

"Forget it, I'm too busy recently."

That's actually the case with party parties in Hollywood.

Everyone talks about recent events in the circle, about projects in their hands, or just laughs and laughs. Then, many people who are extremely envious of outsiders are established in such understatement, and some potential cooperation also sprouts unconsciously through mutual contact.

The cocktail party will end at 10 o'clock.

At eleven o'clock, Jennifer dutifully stared at the party company employees and then took off after completing the cleaning. He still greeted Simon seriously, and then pulled Amy's assistant Vanessa away.

In addition to the bodyguards in the annex building, Simon is the only one in the huge villa.

Um.

Or three people.

Simon came to the second floor of the villa with a slightly drunken feeling, feeling a little dizzy, forgetting whether it was the second room on the left or the third room on the right, or something else, so he patiently looked for it.
