Hollywood Hunter

The English name of "Anti-Wisdom and Many Stars" is actually Wayne’ World, literally translated as "Wayne’s World."

'Fighting' means mischievous in Cantonese. The'Wanyne' World' skit created by Mike Myers after entering "Saturday Night Live" last year shows a pair of partner Wayne with various unscrupulous spoofs. With Gas’s nonsensical fantasy world, there are often celebrities participating in guest appearances.

Inside the Daenerys Entertainment Division building in Greenwich Village.

Simon is sitting in the office reserved for him on the east coast, holding the script of "Anti-Fighting Wisdom" in his hand.

If judged based on the routines of Hollywood standard commercial film scripts, the scripts of "Anti-Wisdom Multi-Stars" are simply useless. The story lacks the main line and the plots are patchy. As a comedy, there is no Hollywood standard ‘Happy Ending’.

However, it is precisely such a movie that Simon's memory has won the North American box office of 120 million US dollars after it was released in 1992, ranking among the top ten box office charts that year.

Mike Myers, a local TV actor who was born and mixed for many years at the bottom, also finally tasted the sudden popularity. Throughout the 1990s, he was firmly ranked among the first-line comedy stars with the "Anti-Wild Stars" series and the "Ace Powers" series. .

After the box office sales of "Anti-Wisdom Multi-Star", interested people began to continue to summarize the success of the film, breaking the fourth wall of dialogue with the audience, amateurism humor, imitation and ridicule of popular culture, "Posey The classic use of Mia Rhapsody, etc.

Whether it is success or failure, countless reasons can always be easily calculated based on the results.

Only Simon and New World Pictures president Danny Morris are in the office.

Simon is very interested in "Anti-Wild Stars", but Danny Morris is not optimistic about the movie, but he tries to talk about things that Simon fancy, and then finishes it dutifully.

Danny Morris had already missed once by giving up the helm of Highgate Pictures, and he did not intend to make a second mistake.

The rapid rise of enterprises can often stimulate the potential of employees. At the beginning, many tepid executives of New World Entertainment joined Daenerys Entertainment to perform better than before.

Of course, there is also the reason why Xi is constantly ‘squeezing’ like a donkey.

Just working a little overtime on weekends, no other Hollywood studio can compare with Daenerys Entertainment.

Although Danny Morris gave up taking charge of Gaomen Pictures, Simon was very satisfied with his work as the president of New World Pictures, which is why he was able to take the position of president of New World Pictures.

It's actually hard for Simon to tolerate mediocre subordinates.

Because there are massive memories of more than a dozen people in his mind, even though his soul comes from the East, Simon can easily appreciate the various interesting passages in Mike Myers's script, so he reads it with gusto.

Going through the full script quickly, Simon looked up and asked Danny Morris: "Has the cost been estimated?"

Danny Morris nodded and said: "Because there are many location scenes in the script, some of them need to be specially set up. The preliminary estimate is that it will cost 20 million US dollars.

Simon recalled the plot of "Anti-Wisdom Multi-Star" in his mind.

Although it is only a vulgar spoof comedy, the big scenes and small explosions in the film are all available, and the budget of 20 million US dollars is really not high.

Danny Morris looked at Simon’s expression and said, “Simon, if you think it’s too high, I can talk to Myers and cut down some of the more expensive scenes. This should be able to reduce the cost to 15 million. Within US dollars, or 10 million US dollars should be able to win."

"No, 20 million is 20 million," Simon shook his head and asked, "Also, what about Mike Myers' contract?"

"For the two films, the remuneration of "Anti-Wisdom Multi-Star" is US$1 million, including the cost of the leading role and screenwriter, and the maximum increase in the remuneration of the lower film is 500%."

With the popularity of "Saturday Night Live", Mike Myers is already a small well-known TV comedy star, and the total cost of 1 million US dollars for the lead role and screenwriter is reasonable.

If the first episode sells well, whether it is to shoot a sequel or start a new project, the highest salary will be raised to 5 million US dollars, that is, it will reach the level of a first-line male star, and it will not be as extraordinary as Stallone, Schwarzenegger and others. It is also just right.

Simon had no other problems, and he pushed the script in his hand to Danny Morris, saying: "The last thing is also the most important. Whether it is you or the specific producer of the next project, you must agree with Myers maintains full communication, so that he knows all the humorous ridicules in this script. If you don’t know where the laughter is, there is no need for this movie to move forward."

"I'm already doing this, Simon," Danny Morris smiled. "Really, there is a sense of long-term knowledge."

"So," Simon raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said, "It's noon soon. Let's have dinner together, and Bob and the others."

With Danny Morris and Robert Egger for lunch, I couldn't help but talk about other things about the company.

At New World Pictures, Sandra and her birthday brother Robert Duval have agreed to join "The Silent Lambs", and original director Jonathan Demi also agreed to join. The initial budget is 15 million US dollars. It is expected to start in September. The schedule is August next year, which is still the end of the summer vacation.

The final piece of the "Screaming Scream" series, "Screaming Scream 3" is also in the preparatory stage. The cost of this sequel is expected to reach 30 million US dollars, which is equivalent to three times the first song. The schedule is still set for Halloween in 1991. .

After "Children in the Cornfield 2" got a good box office during the Easter schedule, the third sequel also entered the early stage of script development.

Relying on the popularity of the first two films, New World Pictures has prepared a budget of 10 million US dollars for "Children in the Cornfield 3", intending to build a mainstream horror film series based on the continuous storyline model of "Screaming".

Although Peter Jackson’s heavy-tasting puppet movie "Crazy Fatty Treasure Variety Show" was not registered in North American theaters, it was distributed through various channels in Australia, North America and Europe. The original cost of 1 million US dollars has long been recovered, and it has also produced Not bad profit, New World Pictures officially signed the other three new films with the New Zealand director. Jackson’s next film has also been confirmed. It happened that Simon had also watched it. A classic zombie movie.

Counting the vulgar comedy "Anti-Bad Stars" created by Mike Myers, which has just been confirmed, New World Pictures has already confirmed 5 projects next year.

Simon's annual output of films determined by New World Pictures is equivalent to that of Gaomen Pictures, which is also 10 films. Therefore, Danny Morris is still looking for other projects.

Daenerys TV led by Robert Iger is here.

The spring release of 1990 has already ended. Except for "The Beverly Wife", other confirmed reality show and TV drama projects have begun preparations. Among them, Simon personally selected "The Story of Seinfeld", and the broadcasting rights were taken by ABC. This was also a deliberate act of Simon out of long-term consideration.

As for "The Loved Wife of Beverly", this fall season will be suspended.

As long as everything goes well, "The Beverly Wife" will be restarted in the spring of next year, and the broadcast will be suspended for a short fall, which will not cause irreparable loss of the popularity of the project.

After lunch, Simon rushed to meet Madonna in Jersey City on the other side of the Hudson River to begin the final rehearsal of the concert tomorrow night.

It was Saturday in a blink of an eye.

The Brenda Berry Arena concert began at eight o'clock. Just after six o'clock, Lisa Collins hurried to East Rutherford, a suburb of Jersey with her boyfriend Frank Walken.

Arriving near the Brenda Berry Arena, even though I have seen a lot of relevant information in the media recently, Lisa Collins still feels a little weird when I feel the crowds around me.

There are too many people!

I am afraid.

More than 100,000 people.

200,000? !

Lisa Collins couldn't count it anyway.

In most superstar concerts, there will be a large number of fans who have not been able to buy tickets outside the venue, and the number of fans is usually larger. Brenda Berry Arena can only accommodate 40,000 people, and the actual number of tickets sold is even less. If Lisa Collins hadn't got the ticket through the female assistant, it would probably be difficult to buy.

Driving around the huge crowd of people outside, Lisa Collins and her boyfriend finally parked their car in the parking lot two blocks away from the arena, and squeezed the crowd away on foot to the stadium. .

Within a short distance of less than one kilometer, there are fans on both sides who are holding placards to buy tickets at high prices. An ordinary ticket of 30 dollars has risen to 300 dollars at this time.

Lisa Collins couldn't help tightening her bag, and finally hugged it in front of her. There are two infield tickets in her bag that are directly below the stage. They were obtained directly through the relationship between her girlfriends. Looking at the fanatical mood of the people around her, she felt that if these people knew about it, they would definitely pounce on them directly.

However, I really didn't expect that guy should have such a strong appeal.

It was just a guest appearance on three songs, and it attracted so many people.

Because of the occasional contact with Simon through Jennifer’s relationship, Lisa Collins has gradually lost too much sense of distance from her idol. Now, her boyfriend is simply working at his Cersei Capital, which is a step further Pulled in some distance between both sides.

But, think about it carefully, the concert Westeros participated in.

From the original song "Bumblebee Flying", too many people know that guy's extraordinary talent in music.

Over the past few years, three consecutive phenomenal movies such as "Lola Run", "Pulp Fiction" and "Batman: Hour of War" have accumulated a large number of diehard fans for him.

Moreover, not just movies and music, the man who is usually very low-key, and some news that occasionally reveals, often make them feel fascinated by them.

Simon Westero’s powerful personal strength gossip has long been heard in the circle. It is said that he broke the legs of several people before his debut, and it is also related to a certain Hollywood actor who has now disappeared. However, when the video of Westeros KO of ten professional boxers in a Melbourne boxing ring was leaked, the suffocating toughness still made countless fans crazy.

When I saw the video, Lisa Collins' first reaction was to call her best friend and ask her to touch him for herself.

Touch, touch...

Feel satisfied.

Then he was scolded like a nympho.

I once talked to my best friend. It is said that the fan letters sent to that guy every week are calculated on sack.

It seems that there are all kinds of explosive news about him every once in a while, but he is actually becoming more and more low-key. He rarely appeared on TV for a few minutes to promote the movie, and He often took other actors with him, often sitting quietly on the side of the sofa far from the host, giving the opportunity to speak to the stars.

Now, that guy is finally going to appear in a concert publicly.

It is said that two new songs were directly released this time.

Of course not to be missed.

With that guy's current wealth and status, I missed it, and I don't know if I can see him on this stage in the future.

Excitedly thinking about it, Lisa Collins finally squeezed the stadium with her boyfriend to check the time. It was already seven o'clock in the evening.

The summer is long and the golden sunset fills the entire Brenda Berry Arena.

Even if they have already entered the arena and saw her and her boyfriend walking down the central stage, there are still people asking her for high-priced tickets, obviously hoping to get closer to someone.

Naturally refuse.

There was already warm-up music on the stage. Who said that the concert started at eight o'clock, Lisa also knew in advance that Madonna had a habit of being late, and would not officially start singing until nine o'clock.

But it doesn't matter.

Lisa Collins wasn't very interested in Madonna at first, so it would be nice not to play, let it all be to Simon.

With her boyfriend occupying a great spot in front of the stage, Lisa Collins couldn't help but feel a little resentment towards her girlfriend. It would be great if she could come over today. Maybe she could still go backstage with her. He touched it.

Unfortunately, my girlfriends are not interested in Madonna's concert.

and.

I can meet him almost every day in private, and the song "Blizzard" he played specifically for her.

Women who are full do not know that women who are hungry are hungry.

So today I simply did not come to the East Coast.

Ugh.

At the beginning, I should be bolder, chasing her and be his assistant.

Now that he is already married, the possibility of wanting to walk next to him is too low. It is estimated that his girlfriend who seems to have a soft temper and is actually very jealous will not be happy.

Throwing away all kinds of thoughts, there is still an hour to wait, and I can't help chatting with people around in the infield.

Sure enough, many of them were directed at Simon.

Especially a petite girl who introduced herself as Jennifer next to her, holding the cardboard of ‘Westero I love you’ in her hand, her eyes hot and expectant, even with an unnatural blush on her face. After listening to Lisa introducing herself as a Westeros fan, not only did she fail to show the response of finding her own person, but she showed vigilance, as if she would take Westeros away.

Humph.

How can you be fanatical, have you touched a real person?

Sister, I have touched it!

With this little sense of superiority, coupled with the fanatical atmosphere of the scene, time quickly passed by without knowing it.

Probably because she was worried about angering the crowd, Madonna, who has always been accustomed to being late, appeared on stage after only a delay of less than half an hour.

At 8:30, the concert officially began.
