Hollywood Hunter

Daenerys Entertainment Headquarters, today is December 31, the last day of 1988.

Simon welcomed a special guest in the afternoon. The current chairman and publisher of Marvel Comics is also the creator of Captain America, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four and other superhero characters, Father Stan Lee.

Due to work, Stan Lee still lives in New York, this time he came to Los Angeles for vacation.

In the past few months after the merger with New World Entertainment, Simon has met Stan Lee several times, but the two sides have not had the opportunity to discuss Marvel's future development plans.

"Batman" is about to start filming, and Stan Lee, who has always been keen on Marvel's superhero filmmaking, specially visited Simon to discuss this incident by the way.

"Stan, Daenerys Entertainment will definitely develop a Marvel superhero movie, but now is not the right time. We all know that compared to "Superman" and "Batman", such as Batman and Fantastic Four The shooting of Marvel superheroes is very difficult."

"But we can start with some easier projects, can't we?" Speaking of business, the 66-year-old man is no longer as witty as usual, and said seriously: "Simon, "The Punisher" is good, he is no different. Yes, no special effects, why cancel this project?"

Jennifer brought in a pot of coffee at this time, Simon did not stop talking, and said: "Stan, you must have read the script. It is completely a gunfight in the style of Stallone's "First Blood", which is completely lost.' The essence of the Punisher’s story."

Stan Lee took the coffee from Jennifer, thanked him, and then said, "Simon, the script can be modified."

Simon took a sip of his coffee and said, "Then the original project needs to be overturned and started from scratch, and, frankly, Stan, I am not optimistic about the box office prospects of The Punisher."

Stan Lee couldn't help shook his head and said, "I really don't understand what you are thinking, Simon, you now own all the superhero copyrights of Marvel, but you are going to shoot DC's "Batman."

"I started preparing for "Batman" before I won Marvel."

"So, what about "Superman" and "Wonder Woman"?"

Simon looked at the old man who was obviously beginning to feel emotional, and smiled: "Stan, don't you think that it is a very fulfilling thing to hold the copyright of several heavyweight superheroes of DC in your hands on the basis of Marvel. ?"

Stan Lee thought for a while, then laughed, and then said: "Okay, Simon, but how long do we have to wait here?"

"Five years," Simon said: "After five years, Daenerys Entertainment will begin planning the Marvel superhero film and television project. Before that, I hope to accumulate certain skills and skills through several DC superheroes. experience."

Simon is now the owner of Marvel, and since he has made up his mind, Stan Lee hasn't bothered too much. The two continued to talk about the trivial business of Marvel Entertainment, and unknowingly, more than an hour passed.

Approaching the end of get off work time, Simon sent Stan Lee out of the office, and Jennifer, who was sitting outside, picked up a prepared invitation letter and handed it to Simon.

Simon handed the invitation letter to Stan Lee, saying: "Stan, this is the invitation letter for Daenerys Entertainment's New Year's Eve reception tonight. It starts at seven o'clock and the location is in Palisades. If you are interested, you can come."

Stan Lee accepted the invitation and said readily: "I will definitely be there on time."

After sending Stan Lee away, Simon glanced at the outside office, which was temporarily occupied by Jennifer.

Susan Landis was fired last Friday, and the two scripts "Rocket Expert" and "Firebird Attack" prepared by Simon the other day have now fallen into the hands of Paramount Pictures.

There is no possibility of misunderstanding about this matter. After selecting the two scripts, Simon just put them in the office casually, and did not contact the copyright holders of the two scripts, nor did he tell others about it.

Until last Friday, Simon asked Jennifer to tentatively make a few phone calls, and the two projects that had never been known were suddenly taken down by Paramount, which is obviously not a coincidence that can be explained.

Susan Landis has been Simon's secretary since the establishment of Daenerys Entertainment, and has accumulated some friendship. Since the other party did not cause any damage to Daenerys Entertainment, Simon was not interested in taking a small shrimp, but simply fired the other party.

However, when reminded by this incident, Simon also began to pay more attention to confidentiality.

Tonight is New Year's Eve. When Stan Lee leaves, Simon will get off work early and rush to the mansion halfway up the hillside of Palisades.

The New Year’s Eve reception hosted by Daenerys Entertainment started at 7 o’clock in the evening. When Simon arrived here, it was less than 5:30. He got off the car in the courtyard and asked some employees of the party company who were busy around him. Simon was very I found Janet and Catherine on the second floor of the villa.

Seeing Simon appearing, Janet, who was choosing the dress, sent away the stylist who was helping her in a low voice. He leaned in and kissed Simon, and said, "You are here just right. Help me see which one I wear tonight. The dress is suitable."

Simon looked at Catherine, who had put on a long silver dress that suits her personal temperament very well, and said: "Just don't run into Catherine's shirt."

Janet also glanced at Catherine and said with a smile: "I don't choose this kind of dress that makes people not brave enough to approach it."

Catherine whispered dissatisfiedly: "Why am I afraid to get close?"

Janet pointed at Simon: "Look, he dare not approach you anymore."

Catherine glanced at Simon with a faint resentment in her guilty conscience.

Simon smiled and went to sit down on the sofa next to him and said, "It's just that you are here, which affects my performance."

Janet picked up a dress from the hanger and gestured in front of her, giving Simon a casual glance: "Would you like me to leave first and give you some time alone?"

"It doesn't need to be too long, just one hour."

"little bastard."

Catherine blushed: "If you do this again, I will leave."

With such a quarrel, Janet quickly picked the dress, which was still her favorite wine red after all. After trying it on, she didn't take it off again, and once again called the blonde female stylist who had just secretly winked at Simon after seeing him, and went to the next room to touch up her makeup.

Perhaps it was because she didn't want to follow her in her heart. Catherine was standing in the distance and arranging the dress on the hanger, as if she could clearly feel the eyes of the little man behind her.

Soon, a pair of big hands were put on her waist, and the man's breath got closer and closer, and Catherine whispered: "Jenny is here."

Simon just hummed, rubbing the woman's smooth silk dress, and kissed Catherine's neck with his probe, and said: "Take off your high heels, okay? I really dare not approach you when you are wearing high heels. "

Catherine's original height reached 180CM, and wearing 5CM high heels, she suddenly surpassed Simon, who was a little taller but still just over 1.8 meters tall.

"Little, bastard, no, just accommodate you."

Catherine whispered finely, but still obediently kicked off the high heels from her feet, and her body was a little soft and supported on the hanger.

After six o'clock, the mansion began to lively.

Janet stood in front of the villa to greet the guest rooms that gathered from various places in Los Angeles until six thirty, and saw Simon appear next to her. The woman kept smiling with the newly arrived "Steel Magnolia" heroine Jessica. The Lange and his wife said hello, and when they walked into the villa, they reached out and pinched Simon's waist unceremoniously: "Asshole, you really tossed for an hour."

Simon squeezed Janet's little hand, and said nonsense, "No, just chat."

"Nonsence."

Janet gave Simon a fiercely white look, and saw that Robert Rem and his wife came from not far away, and then he let him go.

At seven o'clock, the reception officially began.

Compared with the previous parties in this mansion, the scale of this reception is not the largest, but it is definitely the one that has attended the most big coffee. Due to a series of miracles that Daenerys Entertainment has created in the field of film and television over the past year, many of Hollywood's top stars who were still reserved have begun to actively associate with Daenerys Entertainment.

Moreover, compared to the past, at the party tonight, most of the guests found it difficult to care about his age in front of Simon, but generally a little more in awe. After all, six films with a box office of RMB 100 million were made in one year without any mistakes, and all six films are destined to be among the top ten of the annual box office. This kind of pioneering work has never happened in Hollywood.

Perhaps, apart from Simon Westero himself, it will be difficult for Hollywood to break this record in the future.

"Ms. Pfeiffer, the heroine of "Flying by the Innocence" needs that American sweetheart style. You are too beautiful and have a more glamorous temperament, which is not suitable for this role."

On the lawn in the backyard of the mansion, the sky was completely dark, and the brightly lit courtyard was crowded with people.

Simon stood at the buffet table and wanted to pick some food to comfort his hungry stomach. Tonight, Michelle Pfeiffer, who was wearing a low-cut aqua blue evening gown, came over and took the initiative to talk to him.

Speaking of it, since Simon entered Hollywood, the name Michelle Pfeiffer has been often talked about. Michelle Pfeiffer, who has just turned thirty this year, is also at the peak of her appearance. Prior to this, Daenerys Entertainment and Michelle Pfeiffer originally had several potential cooperation opportunities. For the role of Mia in "Pulp Fiction", Simon also let the other party try the play, but in the end they didn't make it.

"In that case, Simon, do you think there are other roles that suit me in Daenerys Entertainment's projects?"

Michelle Pfeiffer looked at Simon, and when he finished speaking, the glass of red wine in his hand was sipped to his lips, and he glanced over obviously with a hint of hint.

Simon was just a little hungry. In some aspects, he was really full. At this time, his resistance to women was at its strongest. He only said: "If there is, I will definitely contact you."

Michelle Pfeiffer didn't see the eagerness he deserved in Simon's eyes. Seeing him still carrying the dinner plate, he had to say: "So, Simon, how about going dancing together? Are you really so hungry?"

Simon told the truth: "Yes, but Michelle, don't you have a boyfriend?"

I vaguely remember that this woman should be married.

Michelle Pfeiffer shook his head and said calmly: "I just got divorced recently."

"Oh, this is a shame."

"It's nothing," Michelle Pfeiffer said: "Since the two can't stay together, of course they should be separated."

After chatting for a few more words, Michelle Pfeiffer walked away wittily, seeing that Simon had not shown much interest.

As soon as Michelle Pfeiffer walked away, Sandra Bullock walked over with Courteney Cox.

Simon had just selected the food and was about to walk away. Seeing the intimate appearance of the two women, the joke he had made with Sandra the other day suddenly sounded. This Nizi won't really start acting, right?

However, after looking closely at Courteney's expression, Simon realized that the two women were not as close as he thought.

"Hey, what were you talking to that woman just now?"

Simon smiled and said, "Of course the discussion between men and women is about men and women."

Sandra suddenly rolled her eyes when she heard Simon play the game, unceremoniously snatching a shrimp ball from his plate, and sipped her mouth: "I heard that you were robbed of two scripts recently. ?"

Simon did not hide the matter of the two scripts of "Rocket Expert" and "Firebird Attack", but instead released the news privately. He hopes to let Hollywood understand one thing through this incident, Daenerys Entertainment takes a fancy to Even if the project is snatched away, it may not be as successful as Daenerys Entertainment, but may be defeated.

In fact, the state of getting things done by people is very common in Hollywood. Just like the same superhero movie, the same widespread popularity, some burst to make people jealous, some rushed to horrible.

Of course, these cannot be told to Sandra and Courteney.

Simon took Sandra and Courteney to a nearby seat and sat down, and said in a relaxed tone: "It's just two scripts. If they are robbed, they will be robbed."

Sandra saw that Simon was relaxed, but her eyes were a little more suspicious. She didn't believe that this guy would really be so relaxed. Based on her understanding of Simon, there must be something she didn't know.

After Simon finished speaking, he took the initiative to change the subject and chatted with Courteney.

Compared to Sandra's carelessness in front of Simon, Courteney was obviously more restrained.

All the things that have happened this year have made her lose even the emotions of regret. On the contrary, she feels a little grateful that she can continue to keep some friendship with the young man in front of her.

Just seeing Simon chatting with Michelle Pfeiffer, Courteney couldn't help but remember what happened when she and Simon talked about the actress.

At that time, he and the young man in front of him were just unknown people, and his state could even be said to be a little down. However, when she dreamed of becoming a big star like Michelle Pfeiffer, he was very indifferent, and said with great interest that he could try to date with Michelle Pfeiffer in the future, so she was naturally laughed at.

Just now, she discovered that Michelle Pfeiffer, whom she could only look up to at the beginning, could not show any superstar attitude in front of this young man, but was obviously pleased.

Now he has indeed reached the point where most people in Hollywood can only please and look up.
