Chapter 939 939 Lion Leo

Hollywood couples do get a lot of attention, and every move in a relationship that lives in the spotlight often triggers media coverage.

Among them, the most famous ones are Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who had a high-profile love affair in 2002, and frequently took the initiative to show their affection in front of the media, without any publicity. They express their love for each other endlessly, and they can be seen on the news page almost every week, so that people are ridiculed that these two people are constantly hyping the news to save their declining careers, and many TV programs openly They satirized as a joke, and they became one of the most hated couples in America. The two eventually broke up—announcing their breakup in a dramatic fashion a few hours before the wedding, which drew applause from reporters.

Of course, in addition to this couple, there are many more public couples in Hollywood. Under the spotlight, any move will cause discussion, which is equivalent to making one's emotional life into a reality show for everyone People come to judge. What's more terrifying is that if one is not careful, all behaviors will become malicious hype, so as to create unnecessary pressure and lead to problems between lovers that will not occur in daily life.

As Cameron said, if she works with Hugo on a work now, I am afraid that it will hype the relationship between the two to another level, not only making people feel that Hugo is using love to hype his screenwriting debut, but also It will put their relationship to the test of greater intensity. This is not what Cameron had hoped for.

Jennifer and Ben starred in "Gigli" during their romantic relationship in 2003, which was hailed as one of the biggest disasters in history, and even had a great chance of sprinting into the biggest bad movie in movie history. Since then, this work won five major awards, including the worst movie, worst director, worst actor, worst actress, and worst screenwriter of the Golden Raspberry Awards that year, becoming the only one in the history of the Golden Raspberry Awards. A grand slam work that completely ruined director Martin Brest's acting career.

Martin-Brest, the director of "Smell the Scent and Know a Woman", is a typical representative of the late festival.

In fact, couple movies have always been undervalued. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman starred in Stanley Kubrick's "Eyes. Wide. Shut" at their peak. ", this work became Stanley's posthumous work, but it also failed to please, and did not get the expected praise.

Therefore, Cameron's concern is very reasonable, and it was immediately recognized by Rick,

Cameron didn't actually think it was that complicated. She just wanted to cool off, clean up, and protect the relationship that had just begun because of the recent madness of the reporters. She didn't explain anything more after she finished speaking. , but turned to look at Hugo, "You said just now that I'm not your first choice, does that mean you have someone in your heart?"

The alarm bell rang in Hugo's heart, and Rick immediately looked away, as if he hadn't heard it at all.

Sure enough, "Who is it?" Cameron asked curiously.

Hugo was immediately tangled, and he kept shouting "Don't say, don't say" in his heart, but Cameron approached him little by little, and then he simply lay on top of him, and stared at him with wide eyes. He looked at him with a curious and innocent expression, "Please, I know this is work, and this is just work. Isn't the job of an actor to work with different people? You don't think I'm going to compare these things, do you? Who is it? Do you have an expected object in your heart? I have long heard that a screenwriter or director always has an ideal object as a template when they conceive, is this really the case?"

Hugo couldn't stand being stared at by Cameron's innocent and curious eyes. After hesitating for a while, Hugo thought that if he had a ghost in his heart, then he needed to lie; It doesn't matter if the truth comes out. When he was inspired, there were some strange things, but he also knew that he and Charlize were friends, there was nothing special, and there should be no other special. So, he can be very calm.

"Charlize Theron." Hugo replied, looking at Cameron calmly.

Cameron was a little surprised by such an answer. She couldn't help but froze for a while, but she looked up and saw Hugo's clear and bright eyes. There was no concealment, no intention, just frankness. Cameron struggled. After a moment, she raised the corner of her mouth, "Excellent choice!" Although she didn't want to admit it, Charlize was indeed very beautiful. Even a woman couldn't look away. Charlize had a captivating feeling about her The temperament is breathtakingly beautiful.

When Rick heard Hugo's answer, his heart skipped a beat. He almost didn't have a heart attack, and he choked in his throat, but after hearing Cameron's answer, his heart pounded again. He slammed it down and let out a long sigh of relief. Before he could think about whether Charlize was the right choice, he said at the right moment, "I think you should finish the script first, and all other questions are fine. Talk later."

A calm topic transfer, with a little bit of ridicule, attracted the attention of both Hugo and Cameron, but without a trace, Rick glanced at Hugo, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he said: Then he continued, "I made a special trip here today because of an urgent matter, and I want to ask your opinion."

Cameron also remembered this incident, and quickly left Hugo and sat down again, while Hugo also looked at Rick, retracted his thoughts and said, "What's the matter? Can't you contact Joe?" At times, Rick reached out to Hugo through Joseph, except for the last time he was seriously discussing the script.

"No, no, I spoke to Joe on the phone before I came here, but this issue is a bit more complicated. Both Joe and I think it's up to you to make the decision." Rick explained, and then Rick didn't stop, just asked Tell a bit about the situation, "George Lucas has a dinner tonight, and I hope you and Cameron can attend together."

Simple and clear, Rick explained the situation in just one sentence, but Hugo was quite surprised, "George Lucas? I don't remember what relationship I had with him, did he invite me? ?" Cameron, who was sitting next to him, widened his eyes even more. Although Hugo is currently one of Hollywood's top players, a legendary figure like George Lucas is still too much for her. far away.

"Although this dinner was held in the name of Lucas, in fact it was MGM Studios asking Lucas to hold it. They planned to use this opportunity to choose the new James Bond." Rick did not Explain the twists and turns of the whole thing, but just the tip of the iceberg is shocking enough.

In Rick's sentence, there are two pieces of information: MGM and "007".

In the history of Hollywood, MGM Studios is one of the most prestigious studios and an icon of American cinema, they made one of the greatest films in the history of cinema, "Gone with the Wind", creating an enduring "Gone with the Wind" 007" series, created the immortal cartoon image "Tom. And. Jerry"; they initiated the establishment of the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and launched the Oscar; their movie stars Katherine Hepburn, Gary - Grant (Gary. Grant) and Clark-Gable (Clark. Gable) are still shining brightly; they have won more than 170 Oscar statuettes in total, and they are the best among the major Hollywood studios...

So, MGM's lion Leo logo has been used as a symbol of America for a long time.

The most commendable thing is that MGM is the only private company among the eight major Hollywood film companies that is not listed, which means that they have no shareholder support behind them. Just look at the rising star DreamWorks. DreamWorks is also a private company without the support of a consortium. It is called an "independent studio", which means that there will be more resistance in Hollywood, which is full of money games. DreamWorks only After insisting on it for ten years, it was unfortunately split and acquired, but MGM persisted from 1924 to 2005.

In fact, MGM once experienced a low point in the 1970s. After a full decade of hardships, it almost disappeared from Hollywood. However, in 1981, MGM acquired the company by Charlie Chaplin and David Greenfield. United States Film Company founded by David Griffith, Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford. United Artists is the first independent film studio in Hollywood history, a company founded by Chaplin and others to get rid of the shackles and exploitation of big companies. This also gave MGM the rights to the "Rocky" and "007" series.

Then MGM launched "The Graduate", "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "West Side Story" and other works ushered in a heyday of revival.

But unfortunately, without the support of cable channels, TV networks, and the backing of the consortium, after entering the 1990s, MGM was in trouble again.

However, even so, MGM is still one of the most powerful film companies in Hollywood. The connections and resources accumulated over the past 70 years are enough to make Leo the Lion a force that cannot be ignored in Hollywood.

The MGM film company borrowed the name of George Lucas to hold the dinner. On the one hand, it can be seen that they still have a strong appeal, but on the other hand, they can also feel that they are gradually declining. But no matter what, whether it is George Lucas or MGM, it is very important for Endeavour Elite Agency.

This point, Hugo hardly needs to spend too much effort to think about, which is why both Rick and Joseph believe that this matter still needs to be interviewed with Hugo.

In addition, just now Rick also mentioned another piece of information: the "007" series of movies.
