Chapter 973 Sparks

After Daenerys Entertainment held its premiere for the only blockbuster movie "Blackhead Valley" that was completely produced in this summer on June 26, another box office week in the North American summer season was soon completed.

From June 21 to June 27, the three major new films on Friday did not pose any threat to the release of "The Ghost Party of 007" in the next week. The box office decline of this veteran agent series blockbuster remained very well at 37% in the second week, and continued to earn $56.22 million. Two weeks after the release, the cumulative local box office of "The Ghost Party of 007" quickly reached $145.39 million.

July is about to enter, and the summer season that has been in nearly two months has started. The only one who can keep up with the pace of "007's Ghost Party". In the fourth week of the release, "Mission Impossible 2" lost 43% in a single week, and it closed at 15.94 million US dollars, ranking second in the weekly box office list, with a cumulative box office of $177.18 million.

The third place is the new film "Police Empire" starring Sylvester Stallone.

This crime movie with all the stars only receiving the basic salary of the union was $12.76 million in the first week of the release. If compared with the production cost of just $10 million, it is definitely the most cost-effective movie starring Stallone in recent years. The first week is $12.76 million, and the reputation is quite good, the local box office is expected to be around $25 million, which is enough to make Daenerys Entertainment a small profit.

The fourth place is Disney's "The Clock Tower Monster".

This old-school 2D animated film adapted from Notre Dame Paris, each has more than $9,300 in the first week of the first week, which is close to the sales level, and is higher than the more than $7,500 in the "Police Empire". However, because Disney has lost confidence in the 2D animated film, the film only has 1,297 screens to open, and the box office in the first week of the painting is only $12.03 million, lagging behind "Police Empire".

The fifth place is Spielberg's new work "The Tide of the Lock Break".

The first week of this movie with the theme of Black Slave Uprising was only $7.36 million, which is the worst result of Spielberg's directorial work in recent years. Considering that this is not the time when you can take advantage of the award ceremony quarrels to make a long-term trend at the end of the year, the film starts mediocrely and it is basically unlikely to make a comeback in the future.

Therefore, there has been news in the circle that Paramount and Spielberg's DreamWorks have had a feud.

Simon naturally knows the details.

Paramount was dissatisfied with Spielberg's shooting of such unpopular movies, and urged the big director to produce some films like "Jurassic Park", even if it restarts "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Although Spielberg, who has long been successful, has set up DreamWorks, he prefers his own preferences. To put it bluntly, he only likes shooting subjects that he is interested in.

In fact, many commercial directors have this problem. After becoming famous, they always like to shoot some literary or profound films.

It is inevitable that both sides will have conflicts.

Moreover, DreamWorks also accused Paramount of serious misrepresentation of the release strategy of "The Break of Locks", believing that this movie is more suitable for the awards season at the end of the year rather than the summer season. It can be said that unlike the honeymoon period in the original time and space, the two sides have only started working together for a few years this time, and cracks have appeared.

After all, this matter is finally due to the emergence of Daenerys Entertainment.

In history, after experiencing the peak of the "Jurassic Park" series, Spielberg seemed to have never directed any phenomenal box office blockbusters. In fact, this is not the case, because this Hollywood legendary director began to be behind the scenes. Those who are interested can find that whether it is the "Man in Black" series that was sold globally in the 1990s or the "Transformers" series after the new century, whether it is the science fiction "The Clash of Heaven and Earth" or Ridley Scott's war epic "Gladiator", the name Steven Spielberg appears on the producer list.

Now, this ubiquitousness that should belong to Spielberg was not only replaced by Simon, but also relying on the increasingly powerful Daenerys Entertainment, Simon also pushed this ubiquitousness to another level, a height that is gradually controlling the entire Hollywood.

Malibu, Daenerys Cinema.

Kate Beckinsale, who had been traveling around the cinema all afternoon, watched the busy scenes in the film and television base. Although she indirectly felt a certain ubiquitous control, she couldn't help but feel a sense of awe for a young man who was a few years older than her.

As the time of get off work approaches, Kate took his two maids and maids to the post-production center on the second floor of the cinema again. When he entered a movie with extra guards, he accidentally discovered that there was another girl next to someone, Natasha Hensquatch.

It's considered a recognition.

They were not familiar with each other, so there were more sparks when they looked at each other. Kate also regretted that he could not resist the boredom and ran around.

"The Spirit Catcher", which started filming in April, was recently completed, and Kate also returned to Los Angeles.

I learned that the man would watch the sample with the director of "The Spirit Catcher" today and discuss the post-production plan. He called and came over, but from 2 pm, Kate lost his patience after staying in the movie room for less than half an hour. The man thoughtfully sent her to play casually, so he ran out.

Because of a certain special identity, Kate can be unobstructed in this cinema.

So I saw a crowded film project team on the first floor, a dreamy Pixar Studio on the second floor and a large number of people were busy with various movies, and a lot of people were busy with the Daenerys special effects in the later stages of the movies, and a hurry to and from the third floor office building.

It's a completely different feeling than other Los Angeles cinemas.

Just being vibrant is not even enough to describe it. It is more accurate. Kate even felt a strong aggression from it.

This is just one of Daenerys Entertainment's many film and television bases.

Not only is there a large Universal Studios in Burbank, but Daenerys Entertainment already has different film and television bases on the East Coast of the United States, Melbourne, Australia and Toronto, Canada.

Moreover, the news that Rachel, who officially went to Australia to enter the crew of "Titanic" last week was only the 20-hectare shooting base of "Titanic" in the Gold Coast, a famous tourist destination in southern Brisbane on the east coast of Australia, is no less than a movie theater. It can be imagined that after the filming of "Titanic" is completed, it is likely to develop into another Daenerys theater.

This kind of grand occasion is probably comparable to MGM, which was at its peak in the Golden Age.

During the MGM dynasty of Louis Mayer back then, it had as many as six shooting bases in Los Angeles. Now, Daenerys Entertainment has spread its shooting bases all over the world.

Less than ten minutes left before 5 pm. When Kate entered the film, a man was still watching the sample with Gus van Sant, the director of "The Spirit Catcher". Seeing Natasha Hensquqi sitting next to him with a magazine obediently, she had no intention of disturbing her. In fact, Kate, who was a little arrogant, was very clever and did not come forward to disturb her. She also found a copy and sat down directly on the sofa next to Natasha.

Even though hesitated a little while looking at each other, Kate still tried to take the initiative and found a question and asked: "What are you doing here?"

Natasha Hensquqi thought Kate would not talk to her, and she had no intention of speaking. Seeing her speaking out, she raised her head, looked at Simon and others busy in front of the workbench not far away, and whispered: "I'll attend a production conference."

There is no explanation too much.

But Kate said, "Is it the "Extremely Cold"?"

Natasha was obviously surprised: "How do you know?"

Kate not only knew, but also read the script. After all, Stephen Somos, the screenwriter of "Extreme Cold", is the director of "Mummy", and the heroine of "Mummy" is Rachel Weiss, who is her best friend. Filmmakers who have worked with each other in Hollywood usually maintain good communication.

So Rachel first learned about "Extreme Cold", and Kate quickly learned about it.

Kate is not a restrained and humble person, so he quickly asked his agent to find the script and found some other information.

Thinking of this, Kate bent the corner of his mouth and raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I have read the script, but unfortunately the heroine is just a vase, so she has no interest."

I am not interested, it is your turn.

Beautiful women are often proud, but Natasha has a somewhat soft temperament. Seeing Kate's obvious provocation, she subconsciously glanced at the man who was repeatedly playing a scene with the director in front of the workbench not far away. Then she withdrew her gaze, lowered her head and looked at the magazine in her hand, intending to ignore Kate.

Of course I felt a little aggrieved.

The women around Simon are inevitably concerned about each other, and Natasha also knows some Kate's situation, so she understands that she is really just a vase, and she can't compare with the heroine of "Charlie's Angels". In fact, it was not that she had thought about "Charlie's Angels" at the beginning, but she had no results.

And I also understand that Simon is very generous to them, but never too much, what they can support and what they can get.

Kate waited for a while, and saw that Natasha didn't respond and was not aggressive, and she couldn't help but look at the chest of the shirt that the girl next to her was being held up high.

Some envy.

Natasha keenly noticed Kate's gaze, and inexplicably became more proud. She also glanced over with "tit for tooth" and didn't feel it, so she glanced at it again, but she still didn't feel it.

Kate wore a close-fitting T-shirt today, but the capital was really incomparable. Seeing Natasha aiming and looking, she was quickly furious: "You're too much."

Natasha then slowly withdrew her gaze, as if she was doing good.

Kate became even more popular and mocked: "That's why you can only act as a vase."

Natasha seemed to have no news, but she sat up straight again without making any traces, pushing the light blue women's shirt higher.

The two girls went back and forth for more than twenty minutes, and the workbench was finally over.

After Simon finally chatted with Gus Van Sant, he turned around and the two girls met him together.

Simon hugged Natasha and kissed the girl's lips. Seeing Kate glanced over, she didn't favor one and the other, she opened her arms to the girl, and then walked out with the two girls, while asking Natasha: "How are you talking with Stephen?"

"It's great. I also tried some shots. Director Somos thinks I'm quite suitable for the role of Choi Lian'an."

"What about your own feelings?"

Natasha blinked a few times before saying, "A great script, like "Alien"."

Simon smiled and said directly: "I mean, if you are not interested, you can tell me."

"Of course not, well, I mean, I like this script very much."

Although Natasha said that, she could actually feel that it would be very hard to shoot this movie by just reading the script, and it might be very dirty. After all, it was a monster movie, a sea, a sea monster and a variety of fights. However, she also knew that she had no room for choice. Although her character was still a vase, it was much better than the vase in "The Alien", which was obviously a gradual arrangement for her by men.

In fact, if she was just an vase for the men around her, she would do nothing. But Natasha didn't expect that, she still hoped to have her own career.

Seeing Natasha say this, Simon didn't say anything more, and looked at Kate who ran to the cinema for an afternoon: "Disco Doomsday will only start filming next year, you can have a good rest in the second half of the year."

From last year's "Charlie's Angels" to just finished filming "The Spirit Catcher", Kate has been busy for more than half a year. Simon can probably guess what the girl is thinking about today, but she doesn't want her to continue to do it. An actor doesn't take more movies, the better he looks. It's too ordinary to appear on the big screen, but instead makes the audience feel aesthetically tired.

"I plan to visit Australia recently and take a vacation," Kate said, seeing Simon holding Natasha's waist but not touching himself, she took the initiative to wrap around the man's arm, and then said: "Simon, the two projects announced by Disney last week, Terminator 3 and Fifth Element, do you think I can try it?"

News about the female terminator in "Terminator 3" has spread. As for "Fifth Element", it is also a movie with a strong role in the heroine, and it is also a super bombshell. Therefore, it aroused Kate's interest, and Simon was not surprised at all.

However, Simon shook his head and said, "I don't have a good relationship with Disney, so I don't want you to participate in Disney movies."

Kate was stunned when he heard this, then nodded.

Even though she is not as docile as Natasha, Simon said so bluntly that Kate would not be stupid enough to twist with a man.

The three of them chatted like this and walked out of the late center. Kate looked at the crowd gradually gathering towards the parking lot. He still did not let go of Simon's arm. He quietly wrapped it around and said with a little coquettish attitude: "Simon, are you free tonight?"

Simon shook his head again and said with a smile: "I'm going home tonight, and I'm going to Pixar to watch another animated movie sample. I'll get off work at about seven o'clock."

"Ah, today is Friday?"

"Try to make money," Simon said, "You two go for dinner together, yes, don't fight, or don't get into a fight, secretly find a place, remember to just don't scratch your face, I don't care about the others."
