Chapter 1421 Second Chance

Los Angeles in June has entered summer.

Coupled with its unique bright sunshine on the west coast of the United States, this is a paradise if you just take a vacation.

In the future, Los Angeles will become the place with the largest number of Chinese people in the United States, mostly due to this advantage.

Because most of the Chinese who come here do not want to rely on their wages to survive. There are very few who want to survive by working here.

Of course, Los Angeles is in the westernmost part of the United States, so the flight time back to China will be shorter, which is also a reason why everyone chooses it.

On the streets of Los Angeles, advertising posters for a movie have recently begun to be posted.

This movie called "Mean Girls" will be released in North America in July.

Its most conspicuous poster character is Sophie Marceau in the center.

Although several girls around her looked young and beautiful, the most eye-catching one, the one that people saw at first glance, was definitely Sophie Marceau.

This 16-year-old girl, who was nominated for this year's Oscar for Best Actress, has already become a new generation of youth beauty in the United States through a series of publicity operations.

The youthful and invincible Sophie Marceau also deserves such publicity.

Especially after being nourished by Yin Jun, she transformed from a girl into a sweet little woman, and she exuded an even more charming light.

According to a latest survey, Sophie Marceau has become the most popular female star among young people in the United States, especially among young people aged 15-22. 78% of people said that their favorite That's Sophie Marceau.

I don’t know how many girls take care of themselves according to Sophie Marceau’s dress.

Several French brands that previously signed Sophie Marceau have made a lot of money in the United States in the past two months, and their popularity has also been greatly improved.

Especially among young people, they receive more attention.

Although young people don't have much money now, they will grow up later and have strong spending power.

There’s no time like the present to start building their interest in your brand.

If Sophie Marceau's agent Jenny hadn't firmly refused, they would have wanted to directly extend the two-year contract to five years.

If nothing else, the young genius Mr. Jun has recently made a movie tailor-made for Sophie Marceau, which is enough for them to reinvest in Sophie Marceau.

Disney is indeed a master of marketing. This movie, which focuses on young movie fans, had already been sent to major brands to seek possible cooperation before filming started in April.

It has two major brands, Yin Jun and Sophie Marceau, and it is a brand that focuses on youth, so brands targeting this age group are attracted by it.

For example, brands such as GAP and H&M, which specialize in youth clothing, American Eagle, which focuses on girly and girly styles, and Adidas... have all actively participated in the sponsorship of "Mean Girls".

As a result, the total filming and marketing expenses of "Mean Girls" were only 30 million US dollars, and the advertising sponsorship alone took in 50 million US dollars.

It was profitable even before it was released.

Then Disney proudly published this case in the newspaper to let everyone know about it.

Although many film companies are jealous and yelling at her, more young people think it's cool and think that the super-beautiful female star they like has an amazing ability to attract money.

In addition, many brands that have contributed money have posted movie posters around their stores, which has also aroused the love of young people.

Many young people even took the initiative to ask for posters and took them home to collect.

However, Sophie Marceau herself had no consciousness of becoming a goddess.

She had finished filming "Mean Girls", and Yin Jun had also finished filming "Rain Man", so the little girl knew enough to want to be with her lover.

Although she was wearing sunglasses on the street, which made her a little conspicuous, she still dared to be intimate with Yin Jun like this. The young man was a little embarrassed, as he was not used to being so explicit in public.

Sophie Marceau couldn't stop laughing at this. She had long known that Yin Jun was actually very shy.

Think about it, if he hadn't been drunk that night, I'm afraid Yin Jun wouldn't have eaten her, and the two wouldn't have been able to be together.

Now she was lucky to have such an opportunity, which allowed her to get the best man in the world.

A woman in love will never get bored.

But she was not without her worries.

In the rented apartment, Yin Jun was sitting next to the sofa reading information. After making the phone call, Sophie Marceau lost her temper like a little girl and suddenly sat on her lover's lap and leaned into Yin Jun's arms. inside.

Seeing her muttering like "I'm unhappy, come and comfort me", Yin Jun felt pity in his heart.

Sophie Marceau, who is almost seventeen years old, is really youthful and looks flawless even without makeup.

There is a saying in the future called "360 degrees without blind spots", which refers to the current Sophie Marceau.

"What's wrong?" Yin Jun put down the document in his hand and asked gently, leaning against her face.

"It's not Jenny!" Sophie Marceau complained, "Less than 10 days after I finished filming "Mean Girls," she started looking for a new job for me... Forget about brand endorsements, she actually gave me I looked for three movies, and one of them needs to be shot in India... Oh my god! I don’t like that place in India that is full of curry!”

People who like curry really like it, but people who don't like it hate it.

Yin Jun didn't care when he heard this, and smiled, "What kind of movie needs to be shot in India?"

"It's a script written by a British director." Sophie Masou asked, "Dear, do you believe it? Although he is a famous director, he only has one adapted script, and he actually dared to come to her door and tell Jenny, If I make one of his movies, I will definitely be selected as a candidate for the Best Actress Oscar again... I suspect he just wants me to join and then use my fame to raise funds!"

"Is he famous? Dare you speak like this?" Yin Jun said in surprise.

"You must know him. His name is David Lean, a great British director." Sophie Masou said, "But I don't really like his works."

David Lean?

The first British director?

Wait a minute!

David Lean...went to India to shoot a movie...adapted the script

Could it be David Lean's final film "A Passage to India"?

That film was nominated for 11 awards in one go in 1985. Just when everyone thought that the Oscars would praise this outstanding filmmaker's last work, it suffered a complete failure and only won 11 awards. "A Passage to India" won two awards for Best Supporting Actress and Best Score! ?

"What's the name of the script?" Yin Jun opened his mouth and asked.

"'A Passage to India'." Sophie Masuo said, "The works of the famous British writer Mr. Forster... I don't really like Mr. Forster's novels either."

Indeed it is!

Yin Jun smiled slightly.

Forster is a very famous British critical writer, and "Howards End" is his work.

"A Passage to India" is also a very good novel.

It's just that he is also a famous homosexual, and the novels he writes contain too many private things. A girl like Sophie Marceau, who is so girly, naturally does not like this tendency.

"Sophie, do you want to be nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress again?" Yin Jun asked instead.

"Think about it!" Sophie Marceau said without thinking.

"Then go star in Mr. David Lean's movie!" Yin Jun said, "Play the role in it, and you will have a chance to get this honor!"

"Really?" Sophie Marceau was surprised, "Dear, are you sure?"

"Yes!"

Yin Jun said seriously, "Mr. David Lean is a director I respect very much. He has been in the film industry for more than 40 years, and has only made 15 movies so far. Such a serious director will never be in the director's career. At the end of the movie, he made some movies that discredited his reputation. So what he shot must be high-quality.

I have also read the book "A Passage to India". Although I don't agree with many of Forster's ideas, in this novel, he fully expresses the complexity and contradictions of human nature. This is something Oscar has always admired very much. If you play this role well, you really have a good chance of being nominated for an Oscar again. "

The teenager didn't need to think too much to know that Sophie Marceau's role must be Miss Adela, the heroine.

The other Mrs. Moore is too old to be played by Sophie Marceau.

But what is frustrating is that it was Mrs. Moore's supporting actress who won the Oscar, while Miss Adela's leading actress failed.

But no matter what, being nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress is actually a huge victory.

Two years later, Sophie Marceau was only 18 years old. The 18-year-old young actor received two Oscar nominations for Best Actress. How many people in the world can do this?

If it works like this once or twice, the old men at the Oscars will not be able to justify not giving Sophie Marceau the Oscar.

Sophie Marceau may not trust Jenny or David Lean, but she absolutely trusts Yin Jun.

She even said that she admired Yin Jun.

She knew that Yin Jun was a genius, and as long as Yin Jun was determined to do something, he would definitely succeed.

Now that Yin Jun said it, this movie is likely to be nominated for another Oscar for Best Actress, and Sophie Marceau was immediately moved.

She is not a vain person, but if it is such an honor as the Oscar-winning actress, Sophie Marceau will certainly hope to get it.

Because for film practitioners around the world, the Oscar is the highest award.

Although Sophie Marceau is young, since she has already had the experience of being nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress, and has tasted that intoxicating taste, how could she not want to be nominated again for the second time?

"Then let me go!"

After thinking about it, Sophie Marceau made a decision.

Despite her young age, she is also a very decisive girl.

Otherwise, in the previous life, I would not have followed that old man at the age of 18, and then resolutely left him after giving birth to a child.

Such courage and determination are definitely not something ordinary people can have.

Yin Jun smiled slightly.

Sophie Marceau just said that David Lean seems to have not found enough funds?

Then United Artists Film Company can definitely intervene.

For such a movie with Oscar ambition and strength, I couldn't miss it.

In the previous life, "A Passage to India" was nominated for 11 awards, but only won two, leaving David Lean with lifelong regrets.

No matter how you look at it, he shouldn't have lost so miserably.

After all, Hollywood's Oscars have always had a preference for movies adapted from British novels.

Perhaps a big reason for the failure of "Passage to India" is that the film was produced by a British film company.

If it were invested by a Hollywood giant and Americans funded the filming and distribution, then the meaning would be completely different.

After all, he is one of his own!

Coupled with the Kirin Group's public relations methods, maybe Yin Jun can help David Lean make up for his regrets.

But no matter what, there should be no hope for Sophie Marceau to become the best actress. Being too young is also a very big disadvantage!
