บท 203: Chapter 205
Snow-white lights fell on his shoulders, dreamy eyes gleaming, Sophie Marceau sat on the large sofa with her legs folded, her eyes fixed on Mel Gibson, who was standing in front of the wine cabinet, on her beautiful face. There is no expression, like a stone beauty carved from marble.
Mel Gibson picked up a bottle of wine and two glasses, walked over to the coffee table in front of Sophie Marceau, poured a glass for each of them, and then sat opposite the French actress.
He has already said something, so he should always give the other party some time to think.
Picking up the wine glass, Sophie Marceau slowly took a sip of red wine and looked to the other side. Those words were obviously not just what Mel Gibson meant, but they should also represent the caa behind him. There are only two of them here, so I must walk out This door, Gibson will certainly not admit that he said those words.
Oscar has always advertised fairness, and the competition behind it looked more complicated and darker than she thought, and it was not much cleaner than the Caesars in France and the Cannes Film Festival.
Where there are people, there will be fights, especially in this circle of fame and fortune. Sophie Marceau has been used to all this for more than ten years, but why does Caa ask her to do this? Just because she is a signed actress of caa?
There was a cold hum from the tall nose, although it was not particularly obvious, it also made a sound of dissatisfaction.
Yes, she is very dissatisfied with caa!
Since signing a brokerage contract with caa, things have not developed as much as Sophie Marceau thought. Now that more than half a year has passed, she still has only one pure Hollywood work, and "Brave Heart" is worse than expected. There are too many, I am afraid it is difficult to carry her dream and ambition to break into the world film center.
For North America, she is still a strange actor.
It's just that. After all, there are too many factors that influence the success or failure of the film, which only means that she has a bad vision and chose a bad project of the loser Mel Gibson, but the problem is that Caa doesn't know why and doesn't pay attention to her at all. Sophie Marceau could feel the cold reception she received at Caa. During this time, the only few audition opportunities were not from Caa's fight and recommendation.
Without sufficient support, she is a non-English-speaking actress, and the difficulties encountered can be imagined. If it were not for being alone and still having hope for caa, Sophie Marceau would want to change the agency.
She even sometimes imagined that if she had not resolutely rejected the director who was a hundred times more successful than Mel Gibson. In the now vigorous "Chicago", will you become a member of the heroine?
caa...
A mocking smile appeared on Sophie Marceau's face. Mel Gibson actually made such an unreasonable request, really treating her as a plaything? Or does Caa really regard herself as the master of the star?
"Sophie, how are you thinking about it?"
Hearing Mel Gibson's questioning voice at this time, Sophie Marceau's mockery was even more obvious, "Don't you think this is too much? I have to pay a lot for this, and I will bear a lot..."
Her face gradually tightened. I asked the most wanted sentence, "What benefits can I...get?"
Things that only give but no gain. She Sophie Marceau would not do it!
As if waiting for Sophie Marceau's words, Mel Gibson picked up the wine glass, took a sip slowly in a way that was not in line with his usual style, and said unhurriedly, "Bernard Rose is now Prepare a new film. Caa will recommend you to be the leading actress. The French deny you, Caa can win recognition for you, Martin will personally run an Oscar nomination for best supporting actress for you, if you are in Bernard Rose's new film If you play well, you will be nominated for the best actress. And caa will use the standards of first-line actresses to make future development plans for you."
The tight face slowly relaxed, and the mocking on Sophie Marceau's face was replaced by thinking.
"Sophie, I know what you are worried about." Mel Gibson stood up, and the tall figure enveloped Sophie Marceau. "By then you will be a victim, Duke Rosenberg's reputation in this regard. It has always been bad, and you will arouse general sympathy. As long as you properly guide public opinion, you will spread across North America in a fairly positive image. Don't forget that caa has the ability to guide the direction of entertainment public opinion."
"When you go to the position of the top Hollywood actresses, just like Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn and Catherine Hepburn in the past, everyone will only envy you and be jealous of you. Who cares about your past? "
This feeling of having everything under control has disappeared for too long since "Brave Heart" was forcibly interrupted by Duke Rosenberg. Now Mel Gibson has finally found it back, "Don't underestimate the sympathy If it appears during the awards season, the sympathy points are likely to determine the ownership of the heavyweight awards!"
Sophie Marceau seemed to be analyzing Mel Gibson's words, and she was silent for five minutes before she said, "I need to think about it."
"Of course." Mel Gibson laughed.
These actresses are all duplicity masters, who have been swayed by fame and fortune, but they have to pretend to be a saint.
Without staying, Sophie Marceau left the private club directly, entered the parking lot under the afternoon sun, got in his car, but did not start immediately, but sat in the driving position and thought quietly.
What Mel Gibson said is nothing in the eyes of European film circles and French women. In order to gain attention, she dared to pull off her top on the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival. The question is how much Caa and Mel Gibson have points. Credible?
Although Sophie Marceau is bold and unrestrained, she is not naive. When she signed the contract with caa, the other party made a series of favorable conditions, but how many things have been achieved now? She was still the nameless Sophie Marceau who was born in North America. No matter how beautiful she was, she couldn't get anything reliable.
Another point is that when in Europe, many people have rumored how powerful caa is in Hollywood, but what about the facts? They were defeated by a director who was only twenty-five years old, but there was no good way to use the other party, but they had to resort to such an obscure method.
caa is not as strong as she had heard...
Of course, Sophie Marceau will not ignore the fact that caa is still the No. 1 entertainment agency in Hollywood. If they can really fulfill the conditions promised by Mel Gibson, the benefits of this matter far outweigh the harm.
This famous European actress. Wandering around before the temptation of fame and fortune, greedily trying to find the best of both worlds.
Maybe it can be like this... Sophie Marceau's eyes narrowed into a long line, which can test Caa's sincerity and get some benefits from Duke Rosenberg?
No one is stupid than anyone else. Sophie Marceau first thought of it at this juncture. It must be what is in the best interests.
In the afternoon, the sun turned to the sea and fell through the gaps between palm leaves, leaving specks of light in the garden. Sitting at a small table of a palm tree, Duke patted the table again, using a bit more power. , The laptop above shook, and he quickly reached out to hold it.
"Damn win95!"
Pushing the computer aside angrily, Duke turned his head and said to the female assistant sitting on the other side. "Tina, give me a typewriter, I'm fed up with Microsoft and Bill Gates."
"I'll get it..."
On the garden swing, a girl more than five feet tall jumped down. She threw her golden ponytail behind her head, ran over quickly, took the typewriter from Tina Fei, and moved it to Duke. Quite well-behaved on the table.
"Duke..." The girl blinked and leaned over.
"Scarlett!" Duke nodded to her forehead, and said rather severely. "I'm working, don't be naughty."
"Then I'll go and play by myself."
Limited by age and not seeing it for too long, Scarlett Johansson inevitably had a lot of points with Duke. He walked to the opposite side of the swing and took off the Sony dv camera from the tripod. After fiddling a few times, I photographed the empty garden. This new type of toy completely attracted the girl's attention. She ran around there enthusiastically, but the weight of the dv camera of this age is still amazing. She quickly put it back on the tripod and simply stood in front of the camera and took a selfie.
Duke has played the DVD that Nancy sent to him a few times. Of course it was not a video tape or something, but just curious. Even if he didn't like a certain island country, he couldn't help but admit it. Most of the cameras are produced by each other's companies, and Sony and Nikon are among the best.
In particular, the former is said to be working with James Cameron to develop a set of high-speed capture and deep-sea anti-stress shooting equipment for him.
Looking at Scarlett who was playing, it was probably due to her age. She was obviously quieter than before, and after her mother moved to New York, she seemed to have lost her backing and no longer made some unreasonable demands.
He lowered his head and looked back on the typewriter. Duke quickly dropped his fingers and sorted out the script that had been filtered several times in his mind. Tolkien's masterpiece was too long and the length of the movie was relatively limited. The choice of adaptation was extremely important. He will complete the main plot of the script himself.
Fortunately, the preliminary preparations for "Chicago" are very long. At this stage, the focus is on choreography and rehearsal. All he can do in this regard is to check. Participating in specific work will only add to the chaos. There is relatively more free time, especially like this On weekends, if you don't go out, you have a lot of time to write scripts.
Duke and Tina Fei work separately, and Scarlett Johansson plays alone until sunset.
After dinner, Duke called in the driver to take Scarlett Johansson home.
The little girl carried her hands on her back and didn't want to go. "Duke, can I stay here?"
"Your mother just called Tina." Duke shook his head. "You must go home."
Scarlett Johansson looked at Duke, whose energy was not on her at all, bit her lower lip hard, and followed Tina Fei out of the villa.
After packing the dv camera, Duke carried it upstairs and went straight back to the bedroom. He placed the camera in the cupboard between the door and the bathroom, ready to rest early, and rushed to Warner Studios tomorrow morning. . (To be continued...)
