Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

Chapter 812

The Twin Theater in New York is smaller than that in Los Angeles, and it can only accommodate 500 spectators without a screening hall.This is because it was the first twin cinema built in 1971 with two identical projection halls.

The designer is Drew Ebersson, a famous designer who designed the University of Florida. The most admirable thing is the dozen or so movie theaters left in New York with different shapes, but all of them are very artistic.

This is because, when he was young, he worked as an assistant director in Hollywood.I still have feelings for movies in my heart.

Located at the corner of No.60 Fourth Street and Second Avenue, the New York Twin Theater looks like an old theater with a neoclassical porch.

The photojournalist is facing the entrance of the porch, desperately taking pictures, and the continuous flash lights illuminate the entrance as if it were daytime, and there is no time for it to go dark for a moment.

"Patrick, look here, look here."

Patrick Schwitz and wife Lisa Niemi at the New York premiere of "Dirty Dancing."

Ronald and Helen Slater hurried up to greet them, and the four of them posed for a photo taken by Daydream Films' own photographer.

"Helen, it's nice to see you again." Lisa Niemi once visited the set during the filming stage of "Dirty Dancing", cutting off the delusion of the heroine Jennifer Gray.It just so happened that Helen also visited the crew, and the two hugged happily.

"Okay?" Ronald stood by and chatted with Schwytz.He looked at their two female companions, who were dressed in flamboyant clothes that were very eye-catching.

Lisa Niemi wore a black openwork lace dress with no jewelry other than a turquoise and gold amber necklace.She is also a dancer with outstanding temperament.The thin golden curly hair flows naturally on the shoulders, and the smile is very sweet.

Helen went against Ronald's expectations and adopted a neutral and tough style.Hair combed up and loosely tied into a bun.Two exaggerated star-shaped pendant earrings adorn her slightly immature face with a boyish temperament.

Inside the upper body is a vest decorated with masculine gold and silver patterns.He wore a gray men's windbreaker with high shoulder pads and an exaggerated neckline.Underneath is the dark trousers, making Helen look indistinguishable for a while.

"Ah...it's a good thing you reminded me," Patrick Schwitz made a strange face at Ronald, "Those film critics are so enthusiastic that they lined up to dance with me at the afternoon party."

"Ahem..." Ronald almost couldn't hold back his laughter. Schwyz's dance in the movie was sexy and powerful. When those female film critics spoke well of their own movie, they booked the premiere Sometimes, you have to dance with the hero Schwytz and enjoy the "benefits" that only babies can enjoy.

"Lisa is coming with you, so that you can avoid a lot of trouble." Ronald patted Schwytz's arm, reached out to take Helen's arm, and let Schwyz and his wife go in.

"Patrick, say one, say one..."

Seeing that the leading actor was about to leave, the photojournalist below and the hostess who came to visit the TV station quit and yelled at Schwyz.

"Tell me one, what do you say?" Schwyz was puzzled, and seemed to have a big question mark in his mind.

"Say that—'No one can keep Baby in a corner."

"Eh..." Schwyz suddenly had two wrinkles on his forehead.Ronald also found it funny when he heard this request.

At the end of the movie, Johnny came back from out of town and danced a dance with Baby that he promised her. He walked to the table where the Housmans were, and Baby sat in the corner seat.

"Nobody Put Baby in the Corner. (Nobody Put Baby in the Corner.)", as soon as these words were said, Baby's eyes lit up obviously, and then stood up happily to accept the invitation to dance together.

"Say it, say it..."

This line, after the Wall Street Journal, Washington Journal, Los Angeles Times and other female film critics in the film reviews, the audience already knew that there was such a moving line without watching the movie.

Ronald was obviously a little embarrassed to see Schwyz. This kind of live reproduction of a movie scene was too shameful for a self-disciplined actor.

"Come on", Ronald saw that the female audience below were making noise, as if he would not let you go unless you said something.I had no choice but to hold Schwytz's shoulder and whisper in his ear, "This is part of your job, Patrick. If you don't talk about it today, it seems they won't let you go."

"Okay, okay", Schwyz also felt that he had to say it again, he took two steps, stood in front of the audience and the TV host, then made a serious face, brewed a bit of emotion, and looked at the camera affectionately said:
"Nobody Put Baby in the Corner."

"Yeah...he said it, he said it..." The audience shouted happily, and the two middle-aged female audience in the front row covered their faces with their palms and were about to cry.

"Audience friends, we are now at the entrance of the Twin Theater. Today is the premiere of the movie 'Dirty Dancing'. Just now the actor Patrick Schwyz reproduced his classic lines in the movie to all the audience gathered at the door. ,Should not be missed."

"Hahaha..." Helen laughed when she saw this scene. "Did the screenwriter Eleanor deliberately write this sentence just like Patrick. It's really cool for him..."

"Not only that, Eleanor also danced the mamba with Patrick for a long time while talking about the show."

Today, Schwyz is wearing a shirt with a hair-style stand-up collar and a dark gray coat. His polite appearance is not similar to the character in the movie whose male hormones are about to overflow the screen.

But those viewers were obviously die-hard fans, having seen "Dirty Dancing" ahead of schedule on Friday and Saturday, and now came to the premiere solely to interact with the man of their dreams, Schwyz. of.

"Crazy, all crazy...", Ronald also saw the enthusiasm of female audiences for his movie hero for the first time.

Unlike Tom Cruise's female fans, Patrick Schwyz's female fans are older, and many of them are about 30 years old.These fans who are already mothers have become crazy, which is even more staggering.

"Hello, Cynthia. This must be Richard."

The second pair of actors who came was Cynthia Rhodes who played Penny.She is wearing a black velvet gown today with silver botanicals on the shoulders.A head of light blonde hair is extraordinarily energetic.

Behind is a man much younger than Cynthia, wearing a leather suit, very coquettish.The middle part of the hair is combed high, the foreheads on both sides are shaved short, and the long hair with a shawl is left behind.

It was Richard Marks, a singer who was courting Cynthia Rhodes.

"Hello, Ronald," Richard Marks came up and hugged Ronald.

"Richard is helping Barbra Streisand write songs now." Cynthia looked at Richard with eyes of admiration.It seems that after making up his mind, the relationship between Cynthia and him has progressed well.

"That's amazing." Ronald took a photo with them, then walked them in himself.

"Cynthia seems to be very happy with him." Helen watched the two walk in with their fingers interlocked, and came over to gossip with Ronald.

"Yeah, being able to write songs for Barbra Streisand shows that he is very powerful in the industry." Ronald had no choice but to agree from this perspective.

He also took Helen Slater's hand. Today, her heroic demeanor is completely different from her gentle appearance before.

Several main characters have arrived, only the heroine has not yet arrived.

"Is Jennifer coming today? Will she bring a male companion?" Helen still remembers that during filming, she heard that the lead actress Jennifer Gray was obsessed with Patrick Schwyz, and Schwyz's wife Lisa, who was finally visited, I was so angry that I almost didn't talk to the hero.

So, today seeing that the other two leading actors are in pairs, Helen's gossip is very high, and she wants to see who Jennifer Gray will bring.

"Don't look, her boyfriend Brodick is still in the hospital. It's not that easy to break two legs." Ronald smiled.

Jennifer's neck has been recuperating for a few days, and today she can finally take off the protective cover, put on beautiful clothes, and attend the New York premiere of the hottest movie she has ever acted in.

Her father, Joel Gray, called Ronald himself.Worried about his daughter's health, he and his divorced ex-wife came to attend the grand appearance of his daughter Jennifer.

"Thank you very much, Ronald."

Joel Gray pulled his daughter over and hugged Ronald as soon as he came up.It was really not easy for my daughter to escape the accident this time.

"Look at you, I really regret not dragging you to play Baby's father."

Joel Gray is a veteran movie star who has won the Tony Award. He came to play the father in the play, and there is actually no problem with his acting skills.Ronald said this on purpose to make the family of three happy.

"Thank you, I'm so happy today."

The family of three took some rare group photos. Joel and Jennifer's mother walked into the theater, leaving the daughter at the door to continue to accept the reporter's tour.

Today is Jennifer Gray's night, she turned around and let the photographers take enough shots.

Jennifer Gray wore a bright red dress, showing her shoulders and neck, with a slightly messy natural curly hair, Gray is the most beautiful star tonight.

After finally showing off her figure, Jennifer Gray came over to hug Ronald and Helen, expressing her apologies and thanks to him.

"Sorry, I almost didn't get to participate in the film's marketing campaign this time. Thank you."

Seeing that she was extra careful in dressing up today, Ronald no longer brought up the unhappiness in the past, and reached out to let her show some beautiful figures again to the reporters and the TV cameras.

"Is your neck all right?"

Seeing that Gray's neck was still a bit stiff and unnatural, and seeing that she was wearing a dress with off-shoulder revealing her beautiful neck, Ronald asked with concern.

"It's okay, as long as it doesn't... ah..."

"Jennifer, why are you alone, I will protect you."

A tall actor, who seemed to be drunk, rushed behind Jennifer Gray, put his arms around Gray's chest, and arched his mouth around Gray's neck.

"Ah..." Before he could react from the fright, Gray hurriedly tried to avoid the other party's stinky mouth, dragged his neck injury, and cried out in pain.

"Hi, you're drunk."

Ronald got angry, grabbed the back of the opponent's hand, twisted it and turned it half a circle.

The actor was taken away behind Jennifer Gray, fell down, and let out a louder pig cry than Gray just now.

"Ronald, Ronald, it's me...it's me, Eric."

Ronald took a closer look, and he recognized this long-faced actor.It was Eric Roberts, who played the supporting actor in "Runaway Train" written by Akira Kurosawa and directed by Konchalovsky, the director who defected from the Sowell Alliance.

He was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Globe Awards, but why did he get so drunk?

Ronald's hand relaxed, making it less painful for Roberts.Then reach out and pull him.

"Hmm... how much did you drink?" Ronaldo yelled, covering his nose after mentioning Eric Roberts.

A stench as if he hadn't showered for a few days and drank two bottles of rum hit his face.

"I came here to see my sister, she didn't want to see me, so she drank two more glasses, hiccup..."

"Take him away and send him to the hotel to wake up." Ronald ordered a daydream staff to carry away the drunk Roberts.

"Oh..." A woman walked up to Ronald and made a vomiting motion.

"Ha, Xueer. Long time no see." Ronald saw that she was the heroine of "Moonlight Seductive", Xueer, and he hadn't seen her for several months.Today, Cher didn't wear those see-through, leather, fancy dresses, and came to the premiere wearing a low-key dress normally.

"Long time no see." Cher hugged Ronald, and then took a group photo.

"Is this her boyfriend?" Helen's gossip came up again.

"Yes, it's the baker who makes lye bagels."

Ronald shook his head, the power of love is so great, such a fashion-forward Cher, actually dressed like a housewife for her boyfriend.

There are more and more actors from New York, as well as celebrities and socialites from all walks of life.

Ronald's movie has shown great signs of popularity, and the word-of-mouth of the media and audience has begun to explode.Just turn on a TV station or open a newspaper, and there will be news reports about "dirty dancing".

Hollywood is like this, when someone is about to become famous and super rich, many people will come over immediately after smelling and asking.

……

"Fortunately, having you here has saved me a lot of crazy bees, waves and butterflies, and people who asked me to invest money in making their movies."

After the premiere in New York, the audience also went back to buy tickets for the second show.Ronald was in a good mood, this time he didn't stay too much at the premiere party, and took Helen to the big suite that had been reserved at the Waldorf Hotel.

"Haha...that's fine if you really want to. Would you like to vote for my movie too?" Helen took off her coat, put on a white shirt, and put her arms around Ronald.

"Don't worry about your film financing." Ronald knew that her father was a bigwig in the TV industry, so he was not worried about no one investing.

"I just want to hear what you have to say." Helen was also very happy to see Ronald, rubbing her nose against Ronald's face.

"Of course, if you need it again, I will always be there." Ronald touched Helen's hand, and Helen's small gesture made him feel very happy.

"Ring ring ring ring..."

The phone rings.

Knowing that it was the report call from Cannold who stayed in Los Angeles, Ronald made a boo gesture to Helen.

"How about it?"

"Saturday's momentum is also very good, with a single-day box office of more than 300 million. Including Sunday, it is expected to know the box office figures tomorrow morning. In short, the first week was a great success. Congratulations, Ronald."

"Congratulations to you too, Michelle. It was a huge success for our daydream."

"Hahaha...", the two started laughing on both sides of the phone.The sweetness of success is really more exciting than the appreciation of film critics.

"I'm so happy." Ronald hung up the phone, hugged Helen and kissed him.

"Ring ring ring ring..."

"Ring ring ring ring..."

On Monday morning, the phone in the room rang several times, and finally Ronald reached out from under the covers and answered the phone.

"Hey, it's me, Ronald. You better wake me up with something serious."

Playing crazy with Helen last night, Ronald was a little unhappy when he looked at his watch that it was still early.

"The box office broke 600 million in the first weekend, and it is expected to rank first. We won."

"Whose phone is it?" Helen stretched out her hand sleepily and rubbed her eyes.

"Hahaha, I've made money." Ronald jumped onto the bed and kissed Helen.

"Hahaha..." Helen was itchy by Ronald's stubble, and stretched out her white arms to tell him not to mess around like this.

For a moment, Ronald's ecstatic laughter filled the room:

"Get rich!"
