[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

After the opening ceremony, Josie's global promotional itinerary entered the next stop.

At the same time, Lin Shanshan saw the report about the Hollywood superstar "Josie Horton" leaving her country and fans seeing her off at the airport on the TV entertainment program, and she couldn't help but think of the moment they spent together that night.

A big star should be extremely lofty, especially her kind of world-renowned superstar, but the kindness and friendliness shown by the other party is so real. That generous tip solved Lin Shanshan's recent predicament and made her Feeling lucky again.

She also thought about it: Why did the teachers, classmates, tutoring students, parents, proprietresses and colleagues in the restaurant never show more or less kindness to her, but the parents were just the opposite?

They called and asked her to send home half of her part-time income, under the guise of worrying that she would not be able to save money if she spent so much in the big city.

Can't save money?

In that home that doesn't feel like home, no one knows the value of money better than Lin Shanshan, who has consciously worked part-time to earn money since the winter and summer vacations of high school.

The entertainment program was still playing on the old TV, and girls from different majors in the same dormitory were talking vividly about her cousin's husband's sister who was the assistant of a big name in the mainland, and the big name had the honor to play mahjong with Mr. Zun Long, He also heard many interesting stories about Hollywood and superstar Josie Horton from the other party.

"Did you know that Qiao Meiren can also play mahjong!" The girl said with a strangely proud tone, and specially ordered Lin Shanshan who was sitting on the upper bunk watching TV, "Shanshan, is it strange to you? A foreigner He is a big Hollywood star, yet he knows how to play mahjong!"

Lin Shanshan, who was withdrawn from the memory, smiled and did not speak.

I thought: What is so strange about Qiao Meiren playing mahjong you mentioned?She also called me "little sister", and specifically asked me not to add garlic to the dishes, and I can't slip through Chinese!

Lin Shanshan's mood relaxed a lot at the moment, and she habitually touched the wallet under her pillow, only then did she feel a real sense of security.

At this time, her PHS suddenly rang.

Pressing to answer casually, the proprietress' excited loud voice came from the receiver——

"Shanshan, you're lucky this time!"

"The foreign celebrity you received that day was that Rose. She heard about your situation and sent someone to send a set of foreign language reference books that looked very expensive. She also left a business card of the person in charge of the charity foundation. They say they want you to sort out your materials, you can apply for a bursary or something, and if you perform well, you may even be arranged to go abroad..."

"Rose is really kind-hearted. It would be even better if she could bring Mr. Zun Long to us for dinner next time..."

Los Angeles, USA.

Geyer Kosinski had just finished a phone call and looked up at his client who was sitting on the sofa in his office, Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie. The other party was about to turn 27, and she had completely faded away from her teenage years The baby is fat and green, and it is extremely beautiful.

Just sitting there casually can attract the attention of most men in the world.

Just like her screen persona: dazzling and charming.

——It just lacks a chance to soar into the sky, go to the world, and reach the top of Hollywood.

Geyer Kosinski can't help but think of the "Tomb Raider" that made Charlize Theron succeed. That role should have been in Angelina Jolie's pocket, but in the end The result is so regrettable.

"Angie——" Geyer Kosinski stopped his client, "Are you really sure? Give up "Black Widow" and go all out for "Queen of Blades", you know, your competitors will It's Charlize Theron, and she's already an A-list action actress."

"Of course I know." Angelina Jolie put down the "NOW" magazine in her hand and raised an eyebrow, "The worst result is to lose to that South African woman again—but what if it succeeds? According to me As far as we know, her agent and her boyfriend are not in favor of her taking on this kind of game adaptation movie again, we still have a chance."

"Wouldn't Black Widow be simpler?" asked Geyer Kosinski.

Obviously, he thinks that his client is more suitable to play a nimble, sexy and beautiful female agent than Scarlett Johansson's brat in every way.

Fortunately, the vast majority of people in the city feel the same way.

"Look, that's the problem, it's too simple." Angelina Jolie lowered her eyes again, and her eyes fell on the magazine in her hand, "I don't want to be defined as a 'sex symbol' to set off other superheroes, I think Sarah Kerrigan's story is more twisted and moving, which can give me a lot of acting space."

With the recent release of Sony Columbia's "Spider-Man" in the summer, people are paying more attention to the comic-changing movies. Even "Iron Man", which was very underestimated before and even considered to be destined to lose money, has begun to be expected. All kinds of gossip emerged one after another.

Among them, there is the article "Black Widow's first appearance will be contributed to the unreleased "Iron Man" sequel," this one.

While some say it's smoke from competing actresses, Angelina Jolie learned from NOW magazine's Lucy Spiller that it's actually true.

So, a match for Robert Downey Jr., a drug addict who can't afford it?

In an instant, Angelina Jolie completely ruled out "Black Widow", which was not very eye-catching at first, from her list of future work goals, and turned her eyes to Charlize Theron, who was in contact with The Queen of Blades.

When making a movie in Hollywood, it is possible to change the leading role even when they enter the filming group, not to mention they haven't even signed the agreement of intent. Isn't this just God's guidance?

The important thing is that the two have a high degree of overlap in terms of appearance, temperament, and route. The roles reserved for female stars in Hollywood commercial blockbusters are rare and routine. The competition between the two of them is absolutely unavoidable.

Unless they act as producers themselves like Josie Horton and control their own film projects throughout.

But how many Josie Hortons are there in Hollywood?

So far, Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie have their own winners and losers. The former has gained popularity due to "Tomb Raider", while the latter has been recognized by the Oscars for "The Girl Who Moved Soul". The movie also established her screen image as a sexy villain, only lacking a commercial blockbuster with a real starring role to help her rise to the top.

Of course, other studios have projects with female leads in the works.

Angelina Jolie finally set her goal on Tianji Films' "The Queen of Blades". First of all, she really wanted to take back her own role from Charlize Theron to avenge her original revenge; The second is that the role of Sarah Kerrigan really touched her, and the game itself is also very popular; the last and most critical point: You can always believe that there is no red sofa in the audition room of Tianji Films.

This made Angelina Jolie, who had been harassed since entering the industry, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Well, she does look like a bad woman, her private life is quite chaotic, and she even eats both men and women... But this does not mean that she has to squat down and unzip the pants of those fat pigs for the role!

And here comes the problem.

Angelina Jolie is not the only one staring at the project of "The Queen of Blades". Even the damn Charlize Theron was originally the producer's favorite candidate for the heroine. Let others take the fruit of victory?

"Listen, Angie." Geyer Kosinski's tone hesitated, "Maybe, I mean maybe, we can have a Plan B."

"Plan B?" Angelina Jolie said, "Okay, I'm listening."

Geyer Kosinski paused for a few seconds, organized his words, "A super big project, although it is not a mainstream commercial film, but it is definitely an Oscar-level creative team, you are an absolute heroine, and you have even won an Oscar. All the legendary superstars will match you—”

"Who the hell?" Angelina Jolie looked up at Geyer Kosinski with suspicion in her eyes.

Geyer Kosinski showed a mysterious smile, but he didn't make a show of it, and told his client directly: "Clint Eastwood, and Morgan Freeman. How about this lineup? Satisfied?"

satisfaction?

Angelina Jolie smiled instead of answering, slightly raised her eyebrows, and showed a very interested expression on her face.

"Of course." She said with a smile, "However, what makes me more curious is that this PlanB is not the project of Rudy Morgan Production Company, is it? I remember that the heroine they are talking about is Josie Horton .”

It is also for this reason that "Million Dollar Baby", which had no one cared about it, suddenly became a hit in the city. Many film company executives who had rejected the project came back to Rudy Morgan again, and the actresses became even more enthusiastic. I was curious about this script that was killed by Liu Datong.

What was it about it that attracted Josie Horton?

Even Angelina Jolie herself is very curious about this.

"Aha, you guessed it!" Geyer Kosinski smiled brightly, and began to explain the cause and effect, "You just need to know that Josie Horton has been kicked out, and Rudy Morgan found Fox Searchlight for its financing, and this is our opportunity..."

The well-known artist manager in the industry talked eloquently and seemed very excited, because everyone knew what it meant to be selected by Josie Horton, but Angelina Jolie herself was a little absent-minded appearance.

While listening, she continued to flip through the magazine, her neatly manicured fingertips landed on a name on the title page of the magazine, and stayed there for a long time without moving an inch.

Lucy Spiller.

"Welcome back to LA—"

Lucy Spiller's deep, smiling voice came from the receiver, and her tone was friendly and teasing.

"How was your trip to Asia, dear Hollywood Queen? My source tells me you met Sofia Coppola in Tokyo and you had a lot of fun complaining about poor Kiki at your ladies' tea time , because his old love is about to marry someone else."

She spoke so fast that Josie on the other side of the phone was extremely helpless.

"God, your informant has grown from Los Angeles to Tokyo." Josie shook her head and laughed, the noise of the plane taking off and landing made her laughter unreal, "Seriously, we just talked in passing Tell me about Charlie's wedding date—wait a minute, can this not be included in your column?"

"You can choose to remain anonymous, dear." Lucy Spiller sweetly but firmly rejected the request of her titular boss.

Josie didn't care, and said, "Well, all I can say is that I wasn't surprised to receive your call while still on the tarmac."

"Of course, because I'm the most well-informed person in town." Lucy Spiller was quite proud of this, but she changed the subject and said, "Ten minutes ago, I received an important message about you. You must be interested."

"Oh?" Josie got into the car, the whistling wind was temporarily isolated from the car.

Jason, who was in charge of driving, glanced at his boss in the rearview mirror, and then started the familiar black Lincoln Navigator slowly and smoothly.

Debbie and Lindsay, who were in the same car, had spontaneously kept quiet for a long time. The former checked the next daily schedule in the co-pilot seat, and the latter took a sip of the drink in the car refrigerator, holding the Nokia in his hand and started talking to Snake Da Da didn't seem to have any superfluous curiosity about Josie's conversation.

In fact, Lindsay is indeed a child who knows how to read words and expressions.

"The situation is not good." Lucy Spiller's tone suddenly became serious, "I got the news from Angelina Jolie herself that the project "Million Dollar Baby" is about to be green-lighted by Fox Searchlight. Invited to play the heroine."

After hearing the important news about Lucy Spiller, Josie didn't reply for a while. It wasn't that she doubted its authenticity——Lucy Spiller only had the real information, which was the consensus of everyone in the city. ——It is more concerned about the purpose of Rudy Morgan's sudden bounce.

You know, she is not lacking in status, fame, and acting skills. After the other party breaks the contract, not only may she not be able to find a more suitable actress to take over the role, but more importantly, she has offended her in this way, and it can even be said to be humiliating. A big coffee star, what can they get?

Josie couldn't understand for a while.

But after all, it's not that the brain was ruined by alcohol and drugs, and suddenly jumped out to be stupid.

How could there be an idiot in a gold medal producer who has been in Hollywood for decades?Only an old fox more cunning than the other!

So her tone was still calm, and she only asked: "Okay, tell me, what does Angelina Jolie want? I don't believe she would want to reveal in advance that she got the role."

"On the contrary." Lucy Spiller said in a strange tone, "She herself is not interested in "Million Dollar Baby". What she wants is another female heroic epic that you are working on: "The Queen of Blades."

Queen of Blades?

This time, Josie was really surprised and said, "I thought she would want "Black Widow" more."

Lucy Spiller chuckled, and replied: "She has a lot of ambitions. And, as far as I know, your negotiation with JJ didn't go well. Isn't it a godsend to bring in another candidate at this time? Please , All Angelina Jolie asks for is a chance to play fair.”
