Eight Hundred and Fortieth Chapters Old and New Alternate

"Actually, you did a good job."

In the restaurant, Will Smith said to Ronan while eating a steak: "Your acting skills are excellent. Of course, this is among the extras."

Ronan put down his knife and fork and said, "Can't you give me some real encouragement? I plan to continue to be an actor in the future and play superheroes."

Tom Cruise asked: "If you want to play a superhero, you must first train your muscles."

Ronan asked: "Not all superheroes have muscles in their heads, such as Tony Stark."

Will Smith asked with interest: "When will "Iron Man" be released?"

Ronan picked up the cup, took a sip of water, and said unhurriedly: "The summer vacation will start next year."

"The beginning of the summer file?" Will Smith said: "In the past two years, you seem to have dominated the first weekend of the summer file."

Ronan smiled and said: "In the future, I plan to make the summer file an exclusive weekend for Relativity Entertainment. At the beginning of each summer file, there will be a super production of Relativity Entertainment released."

Tom Cruise added: "Relativity has a lot of competition."

Ronan seemed relaxed and said, "Competition is inevitable in business."

"Let's not talk about this." Will Smith suggested: "The weekend is coming soon, and the US Open final is about to start. Are you two going to watch the game?"

Tom Cruise shook his head: "I have something to do at the church on the weekend, I have to attend, I don't think I have time."

Connie called when she first arrived in New York last night, so Ronan said, "It depends on the situation here, I can't be sure now."

Will Smith sighed: "You guys don't know how to enjoy. Let me know in advance that after the US Open, there will be a Champions Night party. All players participating in the US Open, including the youth competition, may be at the party. There are many beauties in the tennis world."

Tom Cruise said directly: "Like the Williams sisters?"

Ronan couldn't help laughing. The so-called beauties in the tennis world need to be supported by their competitive performance. If they don't reach a certain level, they won't be eye-catching.

Maria Sharapova won't win a Grand Slam

Can there be another name for a beautiful Russian girl?

There are also Kournikova, all kinds of ridicules about her competitive level are endless, but there are also undeniable facts that Kournikova has a quasi-first-class level, which can attract attention.

As for the Williams sisters, they are absolutely capable players.

In an interview some time ago, Rodman said that he once singled out the Williams sisters and was beaten to death. The two sisters together have a fighting power comparable to Madonna.

"You were able to stand up and walk out from the Williams sisters." Ronan was deeply impressed: "Will, you are really talented."

Will Smith is uncommonly humble: "It's nothing." He said with a little exaggeration: "There is a black director in the San Fernando Valley who is also a part-time actor. That's called talent. The film he made is like a massacre. .”

Tom Cruise asked suddenly: "Won't Relativity Entertainment enter that industry? I've heard it mentioned more than once that the market for that industry is bigger than Hollywood."

"That industry is even more closed than Hollywood." Ronan has understood to some extent: "Behind every company, you can see the shadow of a large group. Now that Relativity Entertainment is facing fierce competition in Hollywood, it is not suitable to go to the San Fernando Valley for the time being. Open up a second front."

Will Smith looked at the time: "It's almost time, we should go back and get ready for the afternoon shoot."

Tom Cruise stood up: "We'll talk about it another day."

The two of them still had work to do, so they quickly left the restaurant and returned to the dressing room to touch up their makeup.

Ronan also went out of the restaurant, and did not leave the crew for the time being, and chatted with Martin Scorsese on the set.

The topic of the two is not filming, but the film's future awards.

"The relationship on your side should also be activated as soon as possible." Ronan reminded in a low voice: "Like George, Steven and Frank, you can all ask me, I believe they are also willing to do something for old friends."

Martin Scorsese said: "They have done a lot for me." But he understands that the award is not just about the film, otherwise he should have won the Oscar for Best Director or Best Picture: "It can only be given to them again." Do me a favor."

Ronan said: "Relativity Entertainment, after the end of this year's Oscars, will make full preparations for this film. Embassy Pictures is also applying for "The Departed" to compete in next year's Cannes Film Festival."

Martin Scorsese calculated: "Next May, absolutely no problem, I will definitely finish it on time."

"It doesn't matter whether we can win an award in Cannes." Ronan said again: "We must make the name of "The Departed" famous."

Frankly speaking, Martin Scorsese's gangster film is very American, but the response in Europe must be better than in Asia.

As for Asia, especially East Asia and Southeast Asia, the Hong Kong version of the "Infernal Affairs" trilogy comes first, and Ronan didn't expect "The Departed" to get a high rating.

There might even be more curses than there are "F"s in Tom Cruise's lines.

A male protagonist full of romantic poetry and melancholic temperament, portrayed by Tom Cruise as a rough guy full of foul words and sloppy at every turn, will definitely cause dissatisfaction and even criticism from many audiences of the original version and the media in East Asia.

First impressions are always good, like first love.

For example, some of Ronan's classmates once watched "Small Island" because of the actor's fame, and then watched "The Sixth Sense" later. The reversal in the movie is all played badly in "Small Island Cry".

And the truth is just the opposite.

Preconceived notions are common among people.

With Martin Scorsese's achievements, fame and status, it is impossible for the academy and the Oscars to ignore it, but the eating of "The Aviator" is too ugly.

Returning to the gangster movies for which he was famous and good, perhaps the academy will give Martin Scorsese the recognition he deserves.

Because this is not winning an award with a film, but like Julia Roberts, winning the statuette with years of accumulation.

Relativity Entertainment has to work ahead of time, and Martin Scorsese's side is no different.

For decades in the industry, Martin has too many old buddies.

Maybe these people feel that voting for "The Aviator" has a psychological barrier, but it will be much better to give Martin Sr. the gangster movie that he is best at.

Among the four major directors in the 1980s, George Lucas withdrew from the directors' union early and was no longer a member of the academy, so it was impossible for him to win awards.

Spielberg and Francis Coppola have already won awards and softened their hands.

That leaves Martin Scorsese.

Moreover, in terms of age structure and the development of Hollywood, a group of white people in their sixties similar to Spielberg are gradually replacing the older generation and gradually becoming the core class of the academy.

However, it is not so difficult to replace the old and the new in the film academy, because the members of the academy are for life, as long as they don't die, they are members.

Therefore, many actors who are not welcomed by the academy can only suffer slowly, and if the group of old men who discriminate against them die, their situation at the Oscars will also change.

But Ronan never expected that Oscar would become an open style, because the old ones were dying, and the middle generation, which was originally a slightly more radical style, was also old when they took charge of the house.

Once a person is old, his thoughts will generally tend to be conservative.

Ronan is very sure of one thing. When he gets old, he will also look down on young people in various ways, and thoughts such as "Beat Generation" and "Decadent Generation" will pop up.

In order not to become a super-conservative, you have to spend more time with young people.

Therefore, rich old men always like young and beautiful girls.

Ronan did not delay Martin Scorsese's work. After the crew entered the scene one after another, they took the initiative to go to the rest area of ​​the set.

Next, to film Tom - Cruise and Jack - Nicholson rivalry.

Jessica Chastain, who has a scene to shoot in the afternoon, also came to the set, and greeted Ronan first when she entered the rest area.

"Hello, Mr. Anderson." Jessica Chastain has very fair skin and long red hair. These two aspects are comparable to Nicole Kidman.

In Hollywood, it can be called the white shining type.

Ronan nodded, "Hello, Jesse." He asked, "Is everything going well in the crew?"

"It went very well." Jessica Chastain said with a smile: "Tom and Will took good care of me and helped me a lot."

Jessica Chastain was embarrassed to say some things. Many people in the crew knew that she came to the crew to audition through Ronan, and thought she had a close relationship with Ronan.

Even Tom Cruise and Will Smith think this way and regard her as Ronan's lover.

Therefore, some messy disputes in the crew did not appear on her.

Ronan said casually: "They all have very high evaluations of your performance."

Jessica Chastain didn't know that this was purely a fool, and said: "I cherish the ability to cooperate with Tom and Will, as well as Director Scorsese, and will work harder."

As a boss, Ronan always likes hard-working employees: "Do well, Relativity Entertainment has a lot of film projects."

"Yes." Jessica Chastain vowed, "I will."

Jack Nicholson arrived on the set at this time, and after seeing Ronan, he took the initiative to say hello.

This is a well-known personality actor in Hollywood, and also a famous playboy. It is rumored that there are countless female stars who have had relationships with him.

Of course, Jack Nicholson can also be called brilliant.

In the 1989 version of "Batman", Jack Nicholson created a classic clown.

But once, the spokesperson of the clown was quickly replaced by another person.

Later, there was another clown who was more acclaimed.

This is also a normal alternation of old and new.

It can also be said that the setting of the role of the clown is naturally easy to shine.
