Chương 21: New Goals
At night, the flushed Nicole was lying on Ron's chest with a face, immersed in the afterglow of extreme joy, unable to control herself for a long time.
"Honey, why were you on the set today..." Nicole murmured while drawing a circle on Ron's chest with her index finger.
Ron leaned down and kissed Nicole's forehead lightly.
"Sweetheart, I'm just stating a fact, there's no reason why, and I'd like to thank you for not rejecting me on the spot and embarrassing me."
"Oh, Ron..."
Nicole raised her head and kissed him in embarrassment.
"Huh?"
"I love you!"
"I love you too, honey," Ron reached out and squeezed Nicole tighter in his arms.
"Sweetheart, come with me tomorrow to the premiere of John Hughes' Uncle Buck."
Nicole nodded and then went off to sleep in that position and tomorrow at the scene of the premiere, there were a lot of people.
"Because the director, producer, and screenwriter John Hughes himself has deep connections in Hollywood, and the film investor Universal Pictures attaches great importance to this film. The scene of the entire premiere ceremony can be said to be dazzling. From the huge cheers from the onlookers on both sides of the red carpet at the gate, it is not difficult to see how many stars who have their own coffee(meaning popular) in Hollywood came tonight. Even Tom Cruise and Jerry Bruckheimer, whom Ron had just met yesterday, came to cheer for Hughes, the "king of youth films" in Hollywood. In addition, as the film distributor and investor, Universal Pictures also had many executives present. Management from the other six major Hollywood companies was also invited, but film critics were not particularly present.
Because John Hughes' films have always been unpopular with film critics and awards, and Universal didn't want to be self-defeating, it ultimately affected the film's reputation after its release, so it simply didn't invite film critics to join in.
"Hi, John!"
Unlike the star who caused waves of enthusiastic cheers when they walked on the red carpet outside, Ron took Nicole's hand and entered the theater through the side door in a low-key manner.
"Oh, Ron, thank you for coming," Hughes and Ron, who had known each other for a long time, hugged gently.
"Well, why don't you introduce me to this beautiful lady beside you, you are really lucky to have such a beautiful female companion."
Beautiful women are inherently hard to ignore, and Hughes is no exception, from the moment Ron came in, he noticed Nicole, who was shining brightly beside Ron.
"Hughes, let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Miss Nicole Kidman from Australia, and a movie starring her was released in May this year."
"Nicole, this is John Hughes, a very good producer, screenwriter, and director, I think you should know a little about his outstanding achievements in the past."
Hughes, who initially met Nicole under Ron's introduction, soon started to get busy again, constantly receiving important guests who came one after another, and greeting people in the circle who came to support him one by one.
Ron also took Nicole around to socialize around the time before the movie, connecting with some old friends of himself and the Warners or the Perelman family.
On such important communication occasions, some people who already have a deep network of contacts can easily get to know more strangers through the introduction and contact of their own network, and they are constantly expanding their network at all times.
They are either active or passive. Under the introduction of a friend and some people in the circle, they initially get to know and make friends with each other.
In just over half an hour, after initially seeing Ron's terrifying accumulation of contacts, Nicole felt that she needed to get to know Ron again.
In the many figures that just passed by, Nicole has already recognized many big-name producers, directors, stars, big agents, etc. who are now active in Hollywood.
Among them, Ron took her to communicate, even including some of the top seven executives, such as the vice president of Warner, the president of Disney's subsidiary, and the CEO of Universal who came to the scene today.
After setting aside a certain amount of time for the acquaintances to communicate with each other, when the guests who arrived at the scene gradually took their seats, the movie was finally about to start.
First, before the movie was broadcast, the film's creative team led by John Hughes came to the stage to give a speech, and at the same time expressed their gratitude to the guests who came to the scene today.
After the creator's brief speech ended, the lights in the projection room gradually went out, the title of the movie began to appear on the big screen, the familiar Universal logo flashed on the screen, and the movie began to enter the main scenes.
A very traditional John Hughes family comedy, but not too high quality compared to what Hughes has been known for.
At least Ron can see it, director John Hughes swayed between two different styles and swayed inwardly when shooting this film.
It is precise because of the filming process that Hughes has been undecided about the overall style of the film, swaying and hesitating between serious ethical dramas and family-friendly comedies.
As a result, the style before and after the whole film is not uniform, and professionals can easily see the contradictions and the obvious sense of separation from it.
It's Macaulay Culkin, who plays Uncle Buck's nephew in the film - who is the highlight of the film.
That young and lovely face, combined with the hearty performance, was enough to make most of the people on the scene, including Ron, good about him.
On the whole, this film can be regarded as relatively successful whether it is the final film effect or the commercial achievements.
After all, the production cost of more than 10 million US dollars can get the final box office revenue of more than 60 million US dollars in the original time. This rate of return is already very good for investors.
"Hughes, congratulations, you have completed very good work, especially Macaulay's excellent performance in the film, which is full of surprises. I believe this film is enough to become a classic.
"Shortly after the film was shown, Ron finally found a short time with Hughes and sent his compliments.
"Oh, thank you so much for your compliment, Ron, thank you, I'm here to express my sincerest gratitude to you on behalf of me and my crew."
"Oh, it's nothing John, but what you mentioned to me last time. How did you come up with the Macaulay-Culkin-related project?"
Completely ignoring Hughes' thanks, because the time together was minimal, Ron couldn't wait to ask himself the most important thing about his trip. Purpose.
"Oh, I'm sorry Ron, because I've been busy editing and post-production on another film of mine a while back, so there have been several times when you asked me out to talk about this project in detail."
"Unfortunately, though, I may not have much time tonight, and there is still a lot of entertainment waiting for me, how about next Monday."
"By then, I will basically have a lot of free time, and I can also use the time to sort out my thoughts in the next few days?"
Hughes looked at Ron apologetically.
"Ok, of course, it's fine, John. I'll arrange a time in advance for next Monday, and we can call you directly. I'm here to wish you a great movie in advance!"
"Thank you," Hughes thanked again.
Later, John Hughes began to usher in constant communication, and Ron also greeted Nicole and was about to go back.
The biggest goal of this trip has been achieved, and there is not much value to be gained by staying here. It is better to go home and do nasty things (hehehe) with Nicole.
