Chapter 615 Conflict at the entrance of the hotel(1/2)

Before leaving for the Melisandra party, A girl had already sorted out the list of award results for this year's Oscar.

Relying on all 29 nominations, Daenerys Entertainment won 10 Little Golden Man in this Oscar, including 12 points in Schindler's List, 7 points in 6 points in "The Lion King", and 2 points in "The Winter Banquet". The last one is the best foreign language film of "The Wedding Banquet".

In addition to directly releasing the videos, Daenerys Entertainment also included the best actor, Tom Hanks, the creator of "Philadelphia Story", and the best visual effects of "Superman" last summer.

In summary, this year's Oscars' non-honorable achievement category directly related to films, Daenerys Entertainment took half of it directly. Among the four core awards, Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Actress, only one of the best actresses was lost.

Arriving at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood, the car was about to transfer directly to the hotel parking lot, but Simon noticed that there seemed to be some riots at the entrance of the hotel.

The driver was not allowed to park until he entered the Melisandra party scene on the top floor of the hotel, and Simon asked Angela Arendts who came to greet him: "What's going on outside?"

Sofia Fessi did not come to the United States this time, and this year's party is led by Angela Arenz, who has been promoted to Gucci CEO.

Hearing Simon's inquiry, Angela said: "Several media under the Hurst Group are not satisfied. We suddenly disqualified their interview."

Media that follow Melisandra's party can be roughly divided into three levels. At the very least, they can only shoot celebrities on the street outside the hotel. These are basically just tabloids. You can enter the hotel, take photos in front of the official photo wall and interact with the stars. Several important fashion media under the Hurst Group were originally invited by this part; at the highest level, you can interview celebrities at the party, and there are only two cooperative media, the Egret Portal of the Westeros system and the Vanity Fair magazine under the Condé Nast Group.

The media invitation list was originally agreed many days in advance.

Simon suddenly issued an order to start a war with the Hurst Group in the morning. The senior executives of the Hurst family must have received the news, but their media probably did not expect to be rejected by the Melisandra party immediately and suddenly fell into the treatment of a third-rate tabloid, so they were naturally dissatisfied with this.

Understanding the reason, Simon told Angela to go down and deal with it himself, and not to discourage everyone's interest, so she brought Catherine to the party crowd.

Most of the people who were able to receive invitations to Melisandra Party are top celebrities who have shined in the entertainment and fashion industry in recent years, and there are also a few celebrities from both the political and business circles.

A girl had already prepared the list in advance and personally led Simon to socialize in the crowd for more than half an hour. She said hello to anyone who should say hello.

In fact, many Western parties are like this.

Let’s meet each other and get along with each other. If you find opportunities to cooperate during chatting, then move on to the next step of contact.

Simon is not a hospitality person at heart and does not like to contact others very much. However, since he is in his current position, he must do what he should do.

It's actually okay to ignore everything you want at all. No one can force him to do anything now.

However, if you really keep your eyes closed, it would be very unfavorable and even quite dangerous for Simon to control the Westeros system, and it would be impossible to eventually become a puppet. Howard Hughes's miserable late scene back then was largely due to his isolated personality and state that his personal life was completely controlled by the people around him.

Catherine has been patiently serving as a female companion next to Simon, listening to the obvious gap between the little man and Spielberg but having a happy conversation, listening to him eating a few Victoria's Secret Angel's little tofu in a skillful tone, listening to his tone intimately encourage the backstreet boy group, which will release its first album on Friday, and listening to him bluntly rejecting the request of Famick Jansen, the actor who plays "Wonder Woman", to play the heroine of "Wonder Woman", to play the role of Famick Jansen...

After knowing each other for so many years, it seems that except for the time when I fell into a fight with someone and fainted on the hospital bed, the little man has always been at ease with everything.

I really don't know how he grew up like this today.

"Yes, Roland, I've seen your idea of ​​alien invading the earth. The name of "One Power Day" is also very good, it can be made into a bombshell of over $50 million. But unfortunately, you know, next summer, there will be "Jurassic Park 2" and "Batman vs. Superman" you directed by you at the end of the year, so we'd better put this project in the summer of 1996."

Regarding the crossover of the DC Cinema Universe, Simon chose Roland Emmerich, who is good at multi-line narrative, after deliberating between three core DC directors, Jane Debont, Roland Emmerich and Martin Campbell, to serve as the director of "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice" released at the end of next year. If the effect is good enough, Emmerich will also be responsible for the subsequent "Justice League".

"Star Gate" with Roland Emmerich as screenwriter and producer and new director Michael Bay has been completed. The film's effect is even better than Simon's memory, so it has won the May 13th schedule. This time point is basically the summer schedule, and there are still three weeks of box office space before the super giant "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" on June 3, which is even better than the Easter schedule originally considered.

Emmerich had the idea of ​​"One Power Day" while producing "Star Gate", because the cooperation between the two parties has always been very pleasant, and the script outline was directly bought by Daenerys Entertainment as soon as it was released.

Emmerich had no objection to Simon pushing the film a year later.

Next summer schedule will be locked in "Jurassic Park 2" in June, and there will be a big production "Apollo 13" in July. If another bombshell is stuffed into it, it will likely cause internal consumption.

Moreover, Roland Emmerich has another idea: "Simon, after the Super Tyrant War, I hope to direct this project myself."

Simon was a little surprised and nodded quickly: "No problem, this project is your creativity."

Originally, Simon wanted Michael Bay to try this project. However, Simon also understood why Roland Emmerich suddenly made such a request.

On the one hand, Emmerich probably wanted to get rid of the shackles of the DC movie universe series, and on the other hand, he probably also became a little wary of Michael Bay.

Because after Michael Bay completed Stargate, he recently signed another super project, "Jurassic Park 2". Therefore, although Simon has not revealed his idea of ​​letting Bay direct "One Day" after "Jurassic Park 2", Emmerich guessed this based on many signs.

After Spielberg confirmed to withdraw from the "Jurassic Park" series, the sequel has been quietly brewing, not just the script, but also the complete storyboard scripts and simple animations of many special effects shots have been completed, and the project can be filmed at any time.

Simon originally wanted to direct the new sequel to Joe Johnston, the director of "Jurassic Park 3", who is also a very old-fashioned filmmaker in Hollywood. He served as the special effects director of the "Star Wars" series and was very good at making special effects movies.

It's not just the first "Jurassic Park 3" in Simon's memory, "The Brave Game" and "Captain America". Before that, Joe Johnston had already directed Disney's very popular "Dear, I've Make Your Child Smaller".

However, because Johnston was born into the George Lucas family, the friendship between George Lucas and Steven Spielberg is well known. After Daenerys Entertainment issued an invitation, Johnston chose to refuse.

Johnston is unwilling to join, and Simon has also considered Martin Campbell, the director of the new version of the Wonder Woman series.

Although the sequel was not immediately launched after the first part of "Wonder Woman", due to the success of the "Wonder Woman" series, Martin Campbell was not short of projects. Last year's "Speed ​​of Life and Death" was about to shoot the third part of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", Simon transferred the project to Martin Campbell.

Then, Campbell recently signed a director contract with Paramount Pictures, which has won "Cut Throat Island".

It is no longer the former couple Rayne Harlem and Gina Davis, and Paramount, one of the top seven, is involved. It is hard to say what the prospects of the brand new "Cutting the Throat Island" are.

Simon did not stop Campbell from taking over the project.

Anyway, the contract for the "Wonder Woman" series has been signed, and as long as Daenerys Entertainment needs it, the other party must complete it.

Moreover, after the successive "Wonder Woman" and "Life and Death Time" that will be released in this summer, "Cutting the Throat Island" will be considered icing on the cake for Martin Campbell. Once it fails, it can also make the director return to Daenerys Entertainment with more "safety".

So, for "Jurassic Park 2", Simon finally decided to enable Michael Bay after watching the film "Star Gate".

This decision seems quite risky to many people.

Simon was not worried.

The biggest difficulty of the "Jurassic Park" series is special effects. Simon also tends to have the control of the director who has filmed special effects movie history.

However, for Daenerys Entertainment, this is not a problem.

Because the special effects team directly affiliated with Daenerys Entertainment is extremely familiar with this series, not to mention the animation effects of the project script, storyboard and even many sequel special effects shots have been completed, so only an excellent special effects director is needed from Daenerys special effects to cooperate with Michael Bay.

Moreover, the most fundamental reason is that Simon can only have enough confidence in Michael Bay's directing.

The former explosion of Bay has changed from MV director to Hollywood, except for the very complicated "Escape from Clones", which has made the most failure, no other mistakes have ever been made.

For studios, the annual movie schedule is limited.

For filmmakers, whether they are directors, actors or producers, Hollywood's film resources are also limited.

Roland Emmerich obviously did not feel proud of the success of last year's "Superman". Feeling the threat from Michael Bay, he instinctively began to fight for it.

To a large extent, the types of films that the two are good at are indeed not similar.

Promise Emmerich to direct "One Day" himself will not affect the speed of the DC movie universe.

According to the DC movie universe planning, "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice" will be released at the end of next year. This superhero masterpiece will bring the epic "Superman Death" event in the DC series. This means that it is impossible for Superman to release another sequel before it is resurrected in "Justice League".

Simon does not intend to start Justice League immediately, but plans to launch three movies, "Wonder Woman 2", "Flash 2" and "Suicide Squad 2" as a prelude. Although it seems to be a personal superhero series, these three sequels will have a greater degree of superhero character crossover. Catwoman, Cyborg and even a series of villains from "Suicide Squad" will join in, just like the second and third parts of Marvel's "Captain America".

As for "Cylinder", although the first film had a global box office of less than $600 million, the lowest box office in the DC movie universe series, Warner still hopes to launch the sequel as soon as possible, but was suppressed by Simon just like the previous "Flash" series.

If we follow the thoughts of some senior Warner executives, the DC movie universe is not enough for two movies a year, and other superheroes will join in.

Simon has always been very strong in this regard.

If Warner does not follow his plan, then everyone will part ways, and then Daenerys Entertainment can happily launch the Marvel Cinema Universe series. The copyrights of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman DC are all in control of Simon, not to mention Daenerys Entertainment and the Marvel series, the super spare tire, Warner has basically never gained any initiative.

After chatting with Emmerich for a while, the two separated.

Hugh Grant, who relied on "Four Weddings and One Funeral", made famous in Hollywood in one fell swoop, brought his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley to come over.

Simon smiled and shook hands with the two of them for socializing, and introduced Catherine beside him.

Catherine shook hands with the two politely, but she could not help but frown slightly when she heard Elizabeth Heli, who had a young and delicate face opposite her, inviting Simon to sit on the terrace outside the bar, and could not help but frown.

Really!

This is the most fairy tonight.

What's even more annoying is that the little man actually agreed.

I really wanted to find a reason to walk away. Just now, he actually said that if he didn't like social engagements, he could chat with acquaintances like Ang Lee for a while, but she hadn't done that.

Now.

Forget it, now that this obvious scent reaction may make him lose face.

What's more, in her subconscious that she would never admit, she was unwilling to succeed at the party.

The four of them came to the terrace outside the bar on the top floor of Sunset Tower Hotel. There were also guests in groups of three or three. There were no spaces at first. When Simon appeared, everyone stood up to greet him.

Simon patiently greeted everyone for a moment, and chose a sofa with several guests nearby to sit down on the railing. The table and chairs were distributed in a rectangular shape, with a long piece in the middle, and opposite the railing was a pair of four-person sofas, and on both sides were single sofas.

When Simon sat down, he chose to lean on the handrail position, and Catherine sat next to him.

In addition, the seats are Keanu Reeves, Sandra Brock, Revan Phoenix, Brad Pitt, Gwyneth Paltrow, David Finch and other young new generation filmmakers.

Elizabeth Hurley, who took the initiative to come to the terrace, was not forgotten, but sat down next to Catherine, with Hugh Grant on the other side. Looking at the people around him, Elizabeth Hurley, who was originally looking forward to having some contact with Westerodo, realized that the result must be the same as the party at the Sundance Film Festival at the end of January.

Simon sat down and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Sandra sat directly opposite Simon and heard this, "Moore was just talking about the supernatural events she encountered during the filming of "The Conjuring".

As she said this, Sandra looked at Simon jokingly.

It is rumored that Simon Westeros is a psychic. This matter is very marketable in Hollywood. Even Sandra has asked Simon in private if he can see ghosts. Of course, Simon's answer was yes, otherwise how could he be so talented? Sandra's response was to roll his eyes.

After completing the copyrights of supernatural investigators Warren and his wife last year, the "Soul Conjuring" universe project quietly started.

Simon originally planned to use "The Mortuary Haunted Incident" as the first series, which can only be considered a derivative series. Since the copyright was successfully completed, it will start with "The Conjuring". The film has been completed at this time and will be scheduled to be scheduled on June 17th, two weeks after "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises". Another "The Mortuary Haunted Incident" as a derivative series, is scheduled to be scheduled on October 28th, as the main feature of this year's Halloween.

Among them, Simon, the actor who played the Warren and his wife in the main line "The Conjuring" series, personally decided to determine Matthew Modion and Julian Moore.

Julian Moore needs no need to say.

Matthew Modion, 35 years old this year, has always been lukewarm in Hollywood. Many times, for the audience, they can only be considered an actor who is familiar but cannot name a name. However, this male star actually won the Venetian actor with a Vietnam War movie "The Northern Lights" when he was just 22 years old in 1983. His situation is very similar to Valerie Gollino, who plays Catwoman.
