After leaving Hong Kong, the crew's journey to the Far East is far from over. They went to Manila, Taipei, Seoul and Tokyo. Everywhere they go, with the power of Jurassic Park, they can always set off a frenzy. .
These places are the dumping grounds of American entertainment culture. Ryan also realizes that his name has a lot of influence in the Far East. Compared with the obstacles in the text of novels, the communication between images and music is more convenient. Images in movies and music are widely circulated here.
Every time they walk out of the airport, there are always hundreds or even thousands of fans, holding up posters of him and Nicole, and madly shouting their names, which is completely superstar treatment.
Without any accident, Jurassic Park achieved great success all over the Far East, became the longest-running film in Taiwan, and set an all-time high box office record of nearly NT$500 million. Changes in Taiwan's film rating system.
In Hong Kong, any Hong Kong film that encounters it can only look up. When Ryan and his party returned to Los Angeles by plane, it has become the first film in Hong Kong history to exceed 60 million Hong Kong dollars, and the follow-up screening is still hot. , is bound to create a higher box office record.
This is definitely a crazy money-making journey. Although it has to share the accounts with the agency publishers around the country, the profits generated are still high, and it still attracts people's eyes.
After returning to Los Angeles to rest for about a week, Nicole commissioned a special agency to invite a tutor for him. Ryan made no comments.
He is very clear. As long as a grade slips to a c, Nicole will definitely send him back to school. Although the guardianship in her hands has not been used very much, she has absolutely no sympathy to talk about when she is cold.
Besides, after two to three hours of study time a day, you can exchange for a whole day of freedom, which is a very good deal.
In addition, he will also record the lines to find the feeling, and prepare to participate in the dubbing of The Lion King.
To Ryan unexpected is. In September, Nicole invited Cate Blanchett, who she just met, to Los Angeles because she won an audition for him.
So you chose Batman Forever?
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Ryan looked at the two women opposite and scratched his head for a while.
As soon as Warners launched the third episode of Batman, people came into contact with Nicole, which was unexpected. Nicole actually agreed, even though she had played the role in a previous life.
Do you have an opinion, dear?
Seeing Nicole looking over, Ryan shook his head, she agreed, what else could she say? Nicole is very nice to herself. But not a person without an opinion.
Ryan, the heroine in this script is really good, but don't you think its conception is somewhat similar to The Sixth Sense? I think it should be postponed for a while before shooting is the best choice.
Nicole put the script she read on the coffee table in front of her, and the curly English on the cover was Frightening Island.
The scene of this movie is extremely simple, and the whole play is to highlight the image of the heroine. After returning from the Far East, Ryan used his spare time to drive it out. to Nicole.
Whatever you want. Ryan waved his hand indifferently and asked curiously, What role did you win for Kate?
An action movie.
The answer was Cate Blanchett, and Nicole went on to add, Twentieth Century Fox wanted me to be the heroine of an action movie, I pushed, and I recommended Kate to them, of course, just for the role. audition.
What movie? Ryan was a little curious.
The speed of life and death, after I refused, it is said that 20th Century Fox intends to use all new talent from directors to actors.
Nicole took a sip of black tea and winked at Blanchett again, Kate, this is a good opportunity to enter Hollywood.
Thank you, Nicole.
Cate Blanchett apparently didn't expect a chance friend to help either.
We are friends, we should help each other.
Hearing Nicole's words, Ryan could roughly guess that Nicole was not only helping others, but also building her own circle.
Since Nicole is so concerned, she can help herself.
Well, I'm fairly familiar with the executives of Twentieth Century Fox, and I'll say hello to them. Ryan looked at Nicole, as long as she was happy, Kate, you must show above the level. acting to audition.
Auditions are nothing but human relationships, and relationships within the rules sometimes play a very important role. Besides, 20th Century Fox just made a lot of money on True Lies. As long as Cate Blanchett's acting skills are qualified, these Just a little problem.
Okay, Kate, you just need to prepare for the audition with peace of mind. Nicole clapped her hand.
Ryan is a complete layman when it comes to friendships between women, just like until now he couldn't figure out why Nicole was on good terms with Jodie Foster.
I'll go upstairs, not to disturb your chat.
Looking at the two women who were chatting more and more hotly and had the tendency to meet each other late, Ryan simply waved his hand and walked back to the second floor.
Back in the room, Ryan dialed the number of Grant Hill, who is now one of the heads of Twentieth Century Fox's film production department.
Hey, Ryan, it's really rare that you call me on your own initiative. A familiar voice came from the receiver.
I'm congratulating you. Ryan deliberately picked up the topic, True Lies is almost $250 million at the box office, isn't it?
It should be over that number next week.
Speaking of this, Grant Hill is obviously proud to be the leader of this film project.
When will my share be credited? Ryan quipped.
Oh, God, Ryan, so you are here to collect debts. The other party also joked, The North American box office of Jurassic Park has exceeded 400 million US dollars. Haven't you made enough?
No one thinks that there is too much money. No? Ryan changed the subject, I heard that you are preparing an action movie called Speed of Life?
That's right!
The other party thought about it. Then he said, Originally, the script Paramount looked at first, but... As you know the current situation of Paramount, there is no extra energy to make new movies...
I'm one of the producers of the film. Could it be that you want to co-invest?
Co-investing, a way to reduce risk, has become more and more popular in Hollywood as the cost of making and promoting movies becomes more and more expensive.
No, no. Ryan said his purpose. Well, Nicole recommended a friend of hers to audition...well, her name is Cate Blanchett.
As long as her acting skills and image are okay.
I can guarantee that.
Hanging up the phone, Ryan looked behind him, just now he saw Nicole push the door and walk in.
The friendship between women is so puzzling. Ryan muttered, and Nicole laughed. It's rare to meet a speculative friend.
What about Judy? Ryan asked.
It's different. Judy is American and Kate is Australian. Nicole shook her head slightly. Do you need me to say thank you, Ryan?
Nicole is well aware of Ryan's sunny and enthusiastic exterior. Hidden with a somewhat indifferent heart, willing to help is only for his own sake.
As long as you're happy. Ryan gently shook Nicole's hand, Do we still need to part with each other?
Nicole showed a bright smile, kissed him lightly on the forehead, beckoned and walked out of the room.
shook his head. Ryan sat down at the desk, and it was all worth it. isn't it? If you want Nicole to stay by your side forever, some sacrifices are necessary.
After being together for almost seven years, Ryan asked himself that he should be the person who knows Nicole best in the world, but a woman's heart is always hidden in the thick fog, although he could vaguely feel that there are many secrets hidden in Nicole's heart , but still can't guess or see through.
Sometimes he couldn't help but want to ask the question he wanted to ask the most, but he knew that the time had not yet come, and he didn't have that kind of capital right now.
Why did he let her stay by his side? As a thirteen-year-old kid?
Ryan got up and walked to the full-length mirror. The boy in the mirror was over 5 feet 8 inches tall, which is definitely 173 centimeters in metric. If you ignore the tenderness on his face, from the back, he looks like an adult. .
It won't be too long! Ryan told himself in his heart.
When he thought about it, Nicole had been single and wanted to take care of herself wholeheartedly. As she got older, this situation could not continue.
What if Nicole fell in love with someone else? Could it be possible to risk turning against her by pouring her into a concrete pillar and throwing it into the sea under the cliffs of Malibu?
You must be mine, Nicole!
He clenched his fists, the seeds that sprouted at the beginning were about to grow into big trees.
Kate, find an agent here. Also, you'd better find a fixed residence as soon as possible. Staying in a hotel for a long time is not an option.
Although Nicole didn't say it clearly, Cate Blanchett is not a fool, as long as her acting skills are above the standard during the audition...
Thank you, Nicole.
Hearing Blanchett's words, Nicole shook her head, You better thank Ryan, his words are much more useful than me.
he?
Cate Blanchett was a little puzzled. She used to be separated by most of the Pacific Ocean, and now she has just arrived in Hollywood. She is still an outsider and does not understand the huge interests behind the name Ryan Jenkins.
yes!
Nicole smiled, very proud and proud, Ryan just got on the phone with the production manager of Twentieth Century Fox...
Some things, it is difficult to know the truth without standing in the circle. Listening to Nicole's remarks, Cate Blanchett gradually opened her mouth. It was only then that she realized that the sunny and cheerful boy was far from Hollywood's first child star is so simple.
Your luck is so good! She had this feeling in her heart.
The ringing of the phone interrupted their chat. After Nicole answered the phone, she listened to a few words, Pat, you mean that Summer Redstone wants to meet Ryan? ()
