[US Entertainment] Hollywood reverses life

The box office of "American Sniper" is still exploding.It can also be regarded as the only dark horse that has entered the field of vision this year.

It is called a dark horse because it earned more than 5800 million at the box office at a cost of 4 million, and as a non-commercial film, it is only a reflective war film.

This result is enough to be called a dark horse.

The biggest achievement of Joey's filming of "American Sniper" this time is that he is a fan of Tom Cruise.

Tom's fans seem to fall in love with Joey because of Tom's amazing performance in the movie this time.

They are very grateful that Joey turned Tom into this way, although in fact Joey didn't seem to do anything...

The day was sunny and sunny.

Catherine, Tom, and Joey were sitting together, discussing how "American Sniper" wanted to win the award.

Catherine was the first to speak, "First of all, you need to determine which awards you want to compete for this time, is it the Oscar?"

Joy recalled that the biggest winner of this year's Oscars, the best actor, best director, and best picture were all the same movie, "The King's Speech" starring Colin Firth.

She said: "That's right, I think the best actor, best director, and best picture can all be our targets."

Catherine turned to Tom, "What do you think?"

Tom pointed his palm at Joey, "I'll listen to him."

Catherine joked slightly sarcastically: "It seems that our Liang Tang plans to make a robot that doesn't think from now on. Is this your agent?"

Tom put on a faint smile, "I just think what Joey said makes sense."

Catherine suddenly looked at Joey, "The time you rushed to the Olympics two years ago, the person who helped you with public relations was Hughes Redstone? So this time, you plan to entrust me to do this? To be honest, Tom Don't keep talking, I know you know a lot more publicists than me."

Tom just sat there quietly maintaining a posture, "I do know an Oscar gold medal publicist, her name is Pais King, and I also intend to invite her to join the game this time, what do you think?"

Catherine nodded, "Of course there is no problem. This person is very famous, and he is much easier to get along with than Weinstein. This time Weinstein is promoting "The King's Speech", so we have met our opponents."

Afterwards, Catherine seemed to remember something, and she said to Joey: "You said earlier that Roger Ebert is willing to lobby some college members for you?"

Joey poured a cup of coffee, "That's exactly what he said."

Catherine said happily: "That's really great. You must know that Roger Ebert's status among film critics is supreme. He is the guidepost of Hollywood film critics since the new century. Since he is willing to lobby for you, it means At least in terms of Academy member film critics, you've already won."

Joey smiled, "In any case, since we have decided to hit the Oscars, we must spare our time to cooperate with Pais King. Tom, you don't want to take any job."

Tom slightly bent the corners of his lips, "This is not the first time I've hit the Oscars, and I know what I should do."

Now it is the second half of 2010, and it has entered the process of what is commonly known as the awards season. Awards, large and small, will be held successively at the end of the year.

Then, in the next few days, Joey and Tom followed Pais King, the famous Oscar public relations guru, to various large and small film critic receptions, actor receptions, director receptions, high-end receptions held in Los Angeles. Movie people reception and so on.

At these receptions, Joey and Tom kept a low-key and modest appearance as a gentleman and lady, which left a good impression of humility and politeness on almost all filmmakers in Los Angeles during this period.

This is not difficult for Joey, but it is much more difficult for Tom, because he has to break the impression and temperament of big names, commercials, and cash cows that he has given to all filmmakers in the past.

He even wants to become a character like a British gentleman, and use the greatest enthusiasm to face those filmmakers, film critics, media, etc. who have even hacked him.

But it is clear that the efforts of Joey and Tom are still effective. At least during the awards season, Joey and Tom have a very high appearance rate in the media, large and small, because of their perfect performance every time.

In the eyes of major media and filmmakers, the image of these two people is both perfect and humble, and their favorability has gradually increased.

For example, at this reception of media reporters and producers in Hollywood, Joey and Tom were chatting happily with a group of media reporters. They followed a conversation technique, which was to talk about movies first, and then invite these filmmakers and media reporters to Watch the movie and at the end give them a pre-prepared DVD or write down the address and mail the DVD back to them.

This is because the college has recently issued a new rule, that is, you can't call to harass members, and you can't send DVDs to members' homes for no reason.

So Joey and Tom chose this method, frantically chatting with various people about their movies at various receptions, and then aroused their interest, and finally successfully pushed the DVD to them.

Of course, this is a multi-line matter. On the one hand, Joey and Tom tried their best to publicize and lobby those filmmakers who could get in touch. Authoritative key figures, to lobby these key figures, so that those key figures can then lobby his own small group.

Sometimes, Pais-King may do something ugly, such as giving gifts and bribes, but these are all things under the table, and no one else knows.

At the same time, after learning that Joey had the idea of ​​attacking Oscar, Roger Ebert even offered to help Joey. He is also mobilizing his own network and trying his best to lobby for Joey.

At this time, after Joey and Tom finished talking with this group of reporters, they planned to take a break and fight again.

But when he turned around, he saw Tom walking towards the terrace. Joey saw that his face was not very good, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Tom walked with chic steps, with a polite and gentlemanly smile on his face, and sometimes greeted people passing by, but he said to Joey in a low voice: "Actually, I'm almost sick of that Jason."

Joey frowned a little puzzled, "Why, I saw that you had a good chat with those reporters just now."

Tom said in a displeased tone: "The Chicago Daily reporter named Jason has been chasing me for at least several years and wrote more than 20 articles to smear me, but I have to take care of the other people present and him." We had a great conversation," he paused, because a person passed him and nodded to him, and he also nodded to her with a handsome smile.

Joey felt that this man was worthy of being an actor, and he was a little schizophrenic.

Then Tom spoke again, with disgust in his tone, "You have to know how much I wanted to throw the glass in that Jason's face just now."

Joey suddenly pursed his lips and smiled: "So it turns out that other people don't know that you, Tom Cruise, are also such a narrow-minded person."

Tom licked his upper lip, looking better now, "Whatever you say."

Joey walked to the terrace and stretched his waist, "Actually, I'm about to throw up too, but I eat it. In a month, I've had at least 20 such receptions."

Tom pointed to the pots of roasted suckling pigs on the dinner plate at the dining table, and said with a smile, "You should count how many roasted suckling pigs you have eaten this month."

Joey counted there with his fingers, "15, 20?"

Tom raised his brows, "There is a saying in Hollywood that if you want to win the Olympics, you must eat at least 200 roast suckling pigs during the awards season to get started."

Joey suddenly felt that the soles of his feet were floating, and he staggered a few steps back, "OHMYGOD, please spare me, I have already been eaten by the roast suckling pig. There are more than 100 of them waiting for me..."

Tom glanced at Joey with a smile, and then took the lead to leave the terrace, "That's why I don't like Oscar, which is too ceremonial, tsk..."

Joey followed him out, "Can I choose to refuse? I really don't want to change my size into a suckling pig."

Tom smiled smartly at the others, then looked back at Joey, "You can choose not to succumb to Oscar's desires, but obviously I know you can't."

Then he walked away with a flirtatious mocking smile.

After countless bouts with Tom and Hollywood parties, Joey can finally take a day off.

On this day, Joy rarely had a whole day of rest. She was watching a movie at home when she heard someone ring the doorbell.

She went out and opened the big iron gate of the manor house, and saw a package was placed at the door.

This package is quite cute, with a big pink bow tied on it.

She picked up the package and opened it, her legs were almost frightened...

Inside was a dead cat.Or a dead cat with an amputated limb.

Although Joey would not be scared out of her wits by this bloody scene, she used all her strength to stand still, but she still couldn't help but quickly closed the lid and threw the things into the trash can immediately.

She called Catherine as soon as she went back. She seriously suspected that she had encountered a pervert. As for whether she was a fan or an ANTI fan, she didn't know. She believed that Catherine should have a similar experience.

After learning about this incident, Catherine rushed to Joey's villa in St. Monique Valley as soon as possible.

The first thing she said to Joy was, "I suggest you call the police, but I don't think it's going to catch the really crazy perverts, it's not the cure."

At the same time, Catherine came with some bodyguards, all of whom seemed to be professionally trained, and they searched the entire house of Joey.

Joey was a little surprised, "Where did you find these bodyguards?"

Catherine walked slowly around Joey's yard, as if looking for something, "UTA has a lot of them, you need me to send you some."

Joey asked suspiciously again, "Then what are you searching in my house?"

Catherine looked at the trees planted in Joey's yard, "You don't have guards, and it is very likely that some bugs, pinhole cameras and the like will be installed in your home."

Joey was taken aback, and blurted out, "How did you do it? Is there such a thing?"

Catherine said seriously: "We are still not sure who did it, I tend to be perverted fans, or..."

Joey was terrified, "Or?"

At this moment, a bodyguard came over, said holding something and said, "We found a pocket monitor on the window outside the kitchen."

Joey was even more dumbfounded, "My mother, my own home, has the monitor been turned on?"

The bodyguard speculated, "Press it out of the window, indicating that it may have just turned into your yard, but there is no way to enter the villa."

It was the first time Joy encountered this situation, she looked at Catherine, "My god, Catherine, what should I do?"

At this moment, a bodyguard was checking the gift box containing the dead cat that Joey threw away in a hurry. He took out a card from it——

"JG (short for Joy Grant), do you like this gift?"

Joey was completely stunned this time. Is this her metamorphosis, a perverted fan or an extreme anti fan?

Anyway, definitely not a sane person.

Oh my god, this is too scary!

The dead cat really didn't do anything to her just now, but this time it really scared her.

Catherine was quite calm, "Joy, I think it's time for you to move. The grade of this community is too low to provide you with protection."

Joey frowned, agreeing with Catherine to a certain extent, "Then where do you think I should go?"

Catherine offered a plan, "There is an area in Beverly Hills that is specially provided for residents who need strict protection. It is equipped with about 10 bodyguards and infrared probes that cover the entire villa without any dead ends. I think you need such a residence. There are absolutely iron walls everywhere."

Joey pressed his chest with lingering fear, "You are right, I should consider changing to a more protective residence, so go to the place you mentioned and buy one?"

Catherine took out her mobile phone and began to help Joey look up the housing information, "Well... I found it online, there are many ready-made houses, and you can buy them anytime if you want."

Then, she paused again and said, "Well... the premise is that you are willing to pay the full amount."

Joey took Catherine's mobile phone, "Of course I am willing, this is my life's safety, you are hiding something."

Then Joey glanced at the huge amount on the phone.

A ten-bedroom large-bedroom villa has the so-called "bronze wall and iron wall", infrared probes without dead ends, cameras with night vision mode, iron fences erected around the villa, and bodyguards patrolling back and forth...

It's like a prison...

It is such a prison-like house that is going to be sold - 4 million knives.

Joey was dumbfounded, WTF, this house can definitely be called one of the most expensive houses for sale in the United States.

In fact, the houses in this area are also very famous and expensive in the United States. The 4 million dollars is just the normal price, and there are more expensive ones, including 5 million dollars.

Catherine looked at Joey and asked hesitantly, "So, do you still want to buy...?"

Joey gritted his teeth, and finally squeezed out a word, "Buy."

Then, the media went into a frenzy again.

"Extra, extra! Joey Grant spent 4 million dollars to buy an enhanced villa located in a special area of ​​Beverly Hills. The villas in this area can be called the safest area in the United States. Even the street lights on the street An has infrared detection!"

"The income of celebrities can be found out from the income rankings every year, but the income of directors is generally not disclosed. How much money has Joey Grant made in the past few years? Is it enough to buy a street in New York?"

"Even among the top stars in Hollywood, there are only a handful of people who can throw 4 million dollars at once, or there has never been one!"

At this moment, the entire Hollywood was blown away by Joey's 4 million dollars.What a heroic style this is.

Moreover, Joy did not disclose the fact that she was harassed by terror, so the public did not know that she was really scared to death!

The reason why it is not made public is because Catherine believes, "If this matter is made public, it will arouse more anti or deranged fans to retaliate against you or degenerate, and then they will target you. You are even less safe. For your safety, I would not recommend making this public."

Joey followed Catherine's advice and did not call the police on the matter. Instead, he changed his residence and added bodyguards for daily travel.

She hoped that this matter would stop here, no matter what purpose the pervert who was eyeing her wanted to achieve, she hoped that this matter would end here.

However, Hollywood has focused on Joey's throwing 4 million knives.

The host and guests of a variety show are speculating about this matter.

Host: "Tell me, Joey is really not surprised this time, and she bought a house in the most expensive villa area in the United States. Where did she get the money from?"

Guest: "The company's stock, dividends, and profits. The film reviews she participated in are dividends and profits. Don't forget that she also has a huge annual dividend from the ever-popular "La La Land" on Broadway. I think she should be the most popular in Hollywood. Rich female filmmakers."

Host: "But she is very low-key, isn't she? If she hadn't thrown out 4 million dollars to buy a house this time, most people might not realize that she has already amassed so much wealth in Hollywood."

Guest: "We can't criticize the money she earns based on her ability. We can only say that whoever is lucky enough to marry her will probably be so happy that he faints, or at least fainted by the money."

In short, Joy's title of the richest female filmmaker in "Hollywood" seems to be inseparable.

But what movie fans are more enthusiastic about is that wealth has not changed her. She is still low-key, humble, talented, focused on movies, and keeps a clean private life. These are not easy to do, especially when she has a huge amount of wealth. back.

Sometimes everyone is really surprised, what kind of experience has created such a unique woman.

She doesn't seem to be shaken by wealth, doesn't succumb to lust, doesn't seek fame and fortune, and just wants to make movies wholeheartedly.

This kind of image sounds independent from the world at best, but white lotus at worst.

But she has always maintained such a white lotus image. From the beginning to the end, not only does she not attract people's disgust, but it makes people admire her even more.

A truly independent woman.

Joey rolled her eyes, she was so independent, it was because they didn't know that she was scared out of her wits!

*****

Joey and Tom are still non-stop publicizing various receptions during the awards season.

Pais-King obviously has everything she needs, and she even held a special reception, which invited Chris Kyle herself.

This is obviously for the sake of charging Oga with full horsepower.

At this reception, Pais-King also invited various media to come and report this matter, nothing more than to increase the exposure of "American Sniper" and let various media spread this matter, that is Chris Kay I myself appreciate this biopic about myself very much.

Chris Kyle is also very cooperative with the promotion of the film, saying in many public occasions that the film is excellent, and he very much recognizes it.

During this time, as long as you are a person walking in Hollywood, you will definitely be attracted and influenced by all kinds of movie public relations offensives.

The most powerful are "The King's Speech" and "American Sniper".

The main creative teams of these two films can be described as a gentleman (the former) and a lady (the latter). They showed that kind of British demeanor to the fullest, and won countless attentions while also gaining countless favors from passers-by.

These two teams will appear at all large and small receptions throughout the award season, all first-line or 38-line award ceremonies, and all mainstream and non-mainstream industry gatherings.

Its purpose is only one, and that is to promote their films, and the lobbying is done by other public relations people behind the scenes.

If you open any Hollywood magazine, you will see the seemingly low-key but high-key photos of Joey with the "American Sniper" team.

They will definitely bow their heads, full of polite smiles, and very friendly.

Yes, everyone would never have imagined that one day they would see Tom Cruise in such a team!

Tom is obviously also very cooperative. He participated in many talk shows, large and small, and told the host and audience how hard he worked during the filming process, how excellent the whole team was, how he overcame many obstacles, and how he rebuilt the party's control. Riskell's mental journey.

He tried his best to be Chris Kyle, and Chris Kyle also recognized him.

Obviously, the actions of Joey and Tom still had a good impact.

At least, among the members of the Academy, the two of them have become more talked about.

But at the same time, there will still be jobs coming to the door. For example, at a reception at this moment, a marketing director of Dior perfume found Joey, and he brought an invitation.

The lady named Reese invited Joey to chat on the terrace for a while, "Ms. Grant, you are now the hottest director in Hollywood, but you don't seem to direct commercials very much."

Joy was holding a glass of cocktail in her hand. She picked up the cherry on top and stuffed it into her mouth, and licked it lightly with her tongue, "Don't be so devious, what can you do with me?"

Reese said bluntly: "Our DIOR recently launched a new perfume called Blue Poison (Midnight Wonderful Flower). We have invited a new spokesperson and plan to shoot a new commercial."

Joey probably understood what Reese meant, and she seemed to want to decline, "I'm sorry, I don't shoot commercials very much, and I'm not very interested."

Reese is convincing Joey, "No, I think you're just going to be very interested, this style fits your style very well this time, and our CEO said that no matter what price you ask, we can accept it. "

Joey smiled slightly, "It's not a matter of price, but that I'm not very interested in commercials. Unlike movies, a lot of things need to be stuffed in a few minutes."

Reese smiled and took out a contract, "This is the spokesperson we signed, I want to see her, you may be a little interested, I know you like to photograph beauties, and you like to create beauties, this is your pleasure, and This beauty, you have photographed her once and it is very beautiful, don't you want to try again?"

Joey glanced at the contract, and smiled instantly when he saw the name, "It seems that you are sure that I like to shoot such beauties?"

Reese had done a thorough research on Joey, and she knew it would be hard to convince him.In fact, it is very rare for top Hollywood directors to shoot commercials.

Firstly, it is very expensive, but most directors are not interested in it.

But Chanel, Dior perfume, LV, and Hermes have always been different. These brands have always pursued big-name directors to direct commercials.

Because of the positioning of these luxury goods, big-name directors are also willing to direct these brands.

Dior perfume advertisements have invited many famous directors, such as Wong Kar Wai and so on.

And every time Chanel fights with Dior, Dior asks Wong Kar Wai to shoot Charlize Theron, and Chanel asks "Moulin Rouge" director Baz Luhmann to shoot Nicole Kidman!

This time, their old enemy Chanel is even more exaggerated. The latest No. 5 perfume advertisement invited Martin Scorsese, a top Hollywood director!

This made Dior very annoyed, okay, Bibi invited a big name, right?

Well, well, you have Martin Scorsese, we have Joey Grant!

Let's see if your new No. 5 fragrance is more popular, or our Blue Poison fragrance is more popular!

This time, the CEO of Dior Perfume has spoken, and Joey must be invited no matter how much money is spent.

So Reese did a lot of work convincing Joey, "Not only that, but the style of our blue poison (Midnight Wonderful) is gothic, dark, and full of sexual-impulsive meaning, I think you must be interested, because this is I know you love that kind of vibe that you showed in your TV series "True Detective", but so far, there is no film and television work that can make you play that kind of style."

Joey's eyes seemed to light up when he heard this, "Is your style this time like this? It's quite unique."

Reese saw that Joey seemed to be interested, she immediately chased after the victory and said: "That's right, that's why we invited this French female star, she was born for such a style, our blue poison needs her, and we can't wait for her." need you."

Joey looked at Reese maliciously, "You are using her and this style to seduce me, and you know I am very interested in this style."

Reese took a deep breath, "We need you, this perfume seems to be born for you, everything is the most suitable for you, you can boldly play all your gothic and dark imaginations."

Joey finally frowned, and she said helplessly, "You know, I'm the one who can't stand temptation the most."

"So you agreed?"

But Joey still hesitated, "Actually, I'm very busy during this time, I'm busy sprinting for Oscar."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a commercial, it won't take you too much time, you know, it will be finished in a week at most."

Joey smiled slightly, "Okay, needless to say. I will take over this commercial. But I have to think carefully about how to shoot it."

Then, in the next few days, Joey began to conceive the commercial while publicizing the Oscars.

A total of one-and-a-half minutes of advertisements, one too much is too much, and one less is too little.

The new blue poison perfume launched by Dior is a strong personality party fragrance suitable for midnight.Its style is seductive, voluptuous and gothic.

The style of commercials must be the same, there is no need for lines or scripts, just shoot according to the feeling.

This made Catherine very puzzled, because she really didn't expect Joey to accept a commercial.

She asked Joey about the original intention of this matter, but Joey just responded lightly, "Because I like this actress very much, and I really want to try this style. You know, in ordinary movies, there are very few opportunities. Let me play like this."

Catherine was even more puzzled, "What do you want to play?"

She casually grabbed a piece of storyboards and scene descriptions that Joey had drawn on the table.

For a moment, she was dumbfounded.

A creepy feeling climbed from the back to the spine.

Continuous rain, desolate suburbs, overgrown dead branches, century-old hotels, weird dolls...

Black moonlight, protruding antlers, a huge Cthulhu=God cross, a woman in a shabby wedding dress nailed to the wall.

The storyboards written by Joy Grande exude a dark, dirty, decayed, and weird smell.

She looked at Joey, and couldn't help asking, "Honey, this is not a fairy tale at all, what do you want to shoot..."

Joey glanced at her, "I didn't say it was a fairy tale, it was goth, and goth was never a fairy tale."

Catherine pointed to the huge Cthulhu evil-god-flavored cross and asked: "So this is your evil taste?"

Joey forced a smile, "That's right."

Catherine looked at the girl nailed to the wall in the storyboard, "What is she waiting for?"

Joey bit her pen and replied, "Waiting for redemption, waiting for the nail that imprisoned her to be removed."

Catherine said unsatisfactorily, "Then?"

"And then... a charming midnight that belongs to the queen begins."

Catherine exclaimed, "You still said that this is not a fairy tale. This is obviously a fairy tale, and in the end, it still cannot get rid of the fairy tale-like story development."

Joey couldn't help laughing: "Catherine, this is an advertisement, do you really expect me to play it as "True Detective"?"

Catherine raised her eyebrows, "However, where did you get your inspiration for such a Gothic and Cthulhu style?"

Joey pointed to the woman on the storyboard, "It was her who inspired me."

Catherine squinted her eyes, and saw that it was just a silhouette of a woman that Joey had drawn casually. There was nothing there, except for the two dark and deep eyeliners on the edge of the eye sockets, which were quite obvious.
