Chapter 1041 Celebrity Zero State
Since Lloyd Webber, the composer of classic musicals such as The Phantom of the Opera, Cats, and Superstar, wrote the concept album of Mrs. Veron in 1976, Hollywood has been eyeing the project of adapting musicals. The project has gone through two full years. Ten years of various conflicts and accidents, Lloyd Webber himself had high expectations, and the Argentine government was very resistant to Madonna playing the heroine. But nothing can stop the pop queen, she wanted to act, and finally, through a series of public relations, personal efforts and money to clear the way, she moved the key figure Alan Parker who is also a director, producer and screenwriter, and got the role as she wished.
When joining the group, Madonna was already pregnant, but in order to finish the filming before her belly got too big to affect the progress, she did not hesitate to catch up with illness and rush to work, and she put in a lot of effort.
A good script, a good soundtrack, a good song, a biographical film of a legendary woman, she is very important to rely on this film to make breakthroughs in terms of word-of-mouth and awards. She just gave birth last month and began to participate frequently before her body recovered to a perfect state. Build momentum.
On the day of the strike, the crew had an important publicity event, and the atmosphere in the kitchen made her unable to respond to the strike. She was a little upset, but recently she was set up as a magnificent Latin American lady, and it was not easy to get angry, so she and Austrian Livestone said hello and turned to leave.
When I arrived at the door, I found a Monroe-style big white girl who was staring at the TV in a daze. She was so beautiful. She couldn't help but sighed and hooked her chin with her index finger to tease her, and then Shi Shiran left the dinner party.
"It's disgusting that you want to participate in a collective strike in support of that woman's ex-husband, have you heard?"
Sitting in the car, she called the Warner Records executive she knew well, "Is nothing wrong? What's going on with the APLUS case?"
"I don't know too well." The other party replied.
"Don't get me wrong, you guys must have done a lot of research when you wanted to sign him," Madonna said.
"Uh, let's put it this way, there is a chemical company in Chicago that is not doing well, called Bain Chemicals or Bain Company, and it has reached the point where it is under the trusteeship of creditors. Then when APLUS broke out, please ask a certain politician to think about it. There is a way for APLUS to take over the mess."
The other party replied: "At that time, the politician said to the bank's financiers that he could handle APLUS. The senior management of the creditors knew about it. Some of them later spread a little bit of wind, so it should not be wrong."
"Which politician?" Madonna asked.
"Underwood, will be the House Majority Whip starting next year, Chicagoan."
"What a mess? APLUS has made a lot of money from the chemical plant?" Madonna asked again.
"The factory itself didn't make much money, which was out of proportion to the risk. APLUS was only seventeen years old at the time, and knew nothing about the chemical industry. It was obviously misled by someone deliberately, and it was released when the time came to take responsibility."
The other party replied: "It's just that APLUS invented the rave party later, and fluorescent sticks were popular in the book for concert support, which solved the sales problem of fluorescent raw materials and revitalized the factory, so Dow is willing to pay 100 million Buy more."
"That's it."
Madonna thought for a while, "Then Underwood won't wipe APLUS's ass?"
"It should be wiped. I really don't know about it. In short, it shouldn't hurt you to stand up and support him. APLUS's reaction is very fierce. This matter will not be low in the near future. And one of the publishers of Mrs. Veron is Hollywood Pictures , Linton, the president of his family, has a cooperative relationship with APLUS, the friendship is very good, the game of cat and mouse has gained fame and fortune, and even made Jared Leto popular... Regardless of whether Oliver Stone expresses his position or not, he should eventually participate in the strike."
"OK."
The pop diva puts down the phone and starts thinking about something she's sure to make in response to the strike solidarity.
Back at the dinner party, Charlize saw that Oliver Stone, Spike Lee, and Madonna would all respond to the strike, so she couldn't help adding some courage. She just wanted to call the devil's advocate actor Keanu Reeves who had a good relationship with her to discuss it. She didn't expect to be stopped by Woody Allen, but this time she came to find her on her own initiative.
"Charles, right? I... I recently had an idea to describe a story about a couple who are immersed in the glamor of the entertainment industry. There is a character, a model, I think you are very suitable, uh, you... …you……"
Holding the wine glass, the old man made gestures and said to himself.
"You want me to be in a role right? Your movie? Thanks! Oh I'm so honored!"
Charis understood, and she immediately responded excitedly, as if she had been hit by a lottery ticket that fell from the sky.
"I don't have many roles, I just came to play a cameo, and have some rival scenes with the male lead."
Woody Allen said: "This character..." Barbara is another big deal.
"I'm willing to act anyway, I am willing!"
Woody Allen is a great director of art films, and he is a frequent visitor to various awards. No superstar would refuse to appear in his films. Charis didn't have to hesitate at all, "As long as I have time."
"Of course, maybe the filming will start next year or the next year. Your schedule should be fine. In fact, this is a new idea I just thought of a while ago."
Anyway, Woody Allen can chatter when he finds someone, he likes to find inspiration in conversations with all kinds of people, "I want this movie to show a panorama of celebrities in the upper class and the different ways of integrating into the middle class. To adapt, and for this to give up dignity, to follow suit... those model girls..."
"Uh-huh……"
Charis listened intently, nodding whether she understood or not, until Woody Allen's friend led him away.
But maybe the old man was just talking about it? Because he didn't allow himself to contact his agent to communicate the schedule or make other requests.
But didn't she come to this kind of dinner just to find an opportunity? She was very satisfied with what she had achieved today, "Huh? What did I want to do just now? Oh, call."
She took out her mobile phone and saw the name of APLUS when looking for Keanu Reeves' number, hesitated for a while and tried to dial it. In fact, she had made many calls before, but they were all turned off.
This time it was connected, and there was a woman's voice on the other end of the phone.
"Ms. Sloan? Can you let APLUS answer the phone? This is Charis." It seemed to be the public relations consultant beside him.
"Is...what's the matter?" Sloane asked.
"I just received news about the strike..."
"Give."
The mobile phone was immediately handed over to APLUS, "Charis? What's the matter with the strike?" APLUS' voice came over.
"It happened that day that the Devil's Advocate crew was filming my one-man show...a very important scene..." she said.
"Pai Kingsley is playing tricks. You can ask her to send a strike notice to the Devil's Advocate crew in the name of your agent. There is no need to directly confront the crew."
APLUS replied: "Forget it, I'll call her, you just don't go to the set that day... Wait, are you willing to go on strike? Actually, you don't need to affect your career for me..."
"Of course, dear, I'm willing to do anything for you." Charis immediately flattered her.
"Well, that's it. I'm... you know, very busy."
"Okay, you'll make it through! I'm sure... hello?"
Charis still wanted to say something romantic, but the receiver had already heard a busy signal, and she seemed to hear Ms. Sloane's slight panting before the call was hung up? Maybe I got it wrong.
Hollywood, Pakinsley, who had just walked out of the office of Paramount Pictures President Shirley Lansing, received a call from Song Ya, and hung up after a few words. She had no choice but to call the Devil's Advocate crew to tell her Entertainer Charis' decision to strike.
"The Liangtang couple will not participate."
In the office behind, Shirley Lansing was reporting the latest situation to the big boss Lei Shidong, and of course she didn't forget to take the opportunity to take eye drops, "But Donovan's choice of strike time is deliberately targeting us. The filming schedule was the busiest that day, and the loss was the greatest. William Morris seemed to want to take advantage of the decline of CAA to regain the strong position of the year, which is a very bad sign.”
"I see."
Redstone didn't make a statement, and after hanging up the phone, he asked the Viacom executives next to him, "What happened to the APLUS Barn case?"
"According to what I have learned, he did release some technical materials that are prohibited from export in Batumi, maybe because of his Chinese origin, maybe because he wanted to make a deal as soon as possible." The other party replied.
"So in the end he will be convicted?" Redstone asked.
"There are many people protecting him, and many people are pushing him down. It's not good."
The other party replied: "It was approved by the former commander-in-chief during the window period after his re-election defeat. The package of equipment export also included Caterpillar equipment. Caterpillar should have asked Cheney, and Cheney helped a lot. In addition, Underwood from the Donkey Party helped APLUS with all their strength. At that time, fluorescent sticks and fluorescent parties had not yet been developed, and APLUS would lose a lot of money if the equipment was not exported."
"Then why are the ultra-conservatives still unwilling to let go of this case?" Redstone asked.
"Perhaps it has something to do with the trend in Washington. The current commander-in-chief has just been revealed to be suspected of accepting political donations from China. In the selection of Secretary of State next year, the current commander-in-chief also needs the support of Jesse Helms. He tends to use diplomacy. Strong Woman Albright."
The other party answered.
"The current president has been re-elected, and it is likely to be replaced by Gore after four years. Gore's political inclination is much more conservative than the current president. The conservatives of the donkey party should gradually distance themselves from the current president. Prepare for the Gore era."
Looking forward to the future, Lei Shidong said, "These people have begun to collude with the moderates of the Elephant Party. The life of the ultra-conservatives will be even more difficult. Now a large number of multinational companies are waiting to open up the market of the world's most populous country. We and Huaguo politics Cold, but the economy is hot."
"I heard that Murdoch is also planning to go there." The executive reminded, "APLUS will become more and more popular there because the ultra-conservatives are chasing after them."
"Yeah." Lei Shidong nodded, thinking.
