"Linda was actually injured during the last scene in the factory, but she didn't say it, and the crew didn't know, so I kept asking them with my usual requests, and ended up shooting the steel furnace again and again. She was having trouble with her calf, but I kept on filming and yelling at the people who discouraged me until it was completely over before the staff took her to the hospital, so, from that point of view…” The crowd The attractive middle-aged man with a stubble face in the middle shrugged and teased himself: "It's not wrong for them to call me a tyrant on the set."
The people around laughed lightly, and the tall Mr. T-800 raised the glass in his hand: "It doesn't matter what you say, you are the best, James!" After a while, he turned to the lady standing beside James, Jokingly: "So are you, Linda, you're a real strong woman, not just in the movies."
"Thank you, Arnold, but it's better to be a strong woman once in a while, otherwise some people won't be able to sleep." Linda Hamilton, dressed in a silver-gray low-cut evening dress, smiled and glanced at James Beside him. Cameron glanced.
"No no no, I will never fail to sleep, trust me, my dear, that will only make me sleep better." James exclaimed with his hands raised, making the people around him chuckle again, and two It's almost a half-open secret that people sparked while filming Terminator 2.
"I have to say, Jim, your "Terminator" is really good. Fortunately, our movie is not the same as your audience, and the schedule is staggered. Otherwise, maybe there will not be this reception today." Michael Eisner, an old man who came to the reception at the time, patted James and said that the relationship between the two of them is very good.
"Of course, Michael, there will be more movies that will take the initiative to make way for my movies in the future!" James Cameron laughed, although a little arrogant, but "Terminator 2" has basically established With his master status, he does have such capital.
Although he understood his character, Michael still reminded: "I heard that the original budget for this movie was 50 million, and then you asked them to invest an additional 20 million, right? And then you asked them to add another 20 million. , but was rejected."
"I just want to say that the directors of Columbia are all misers. If they are willing to add another 20 million, I can make the film more perfect." James said dissatisfiedly, for him, a person who pursues perfection, never Will think the funds are low.
"Jim, that's not going to work. If you're constantly overspending when you're shooting, who's going to invest in your films in the future."
"There will always be someone, Michael, you see "Terminator 2" has already made 160 million at the box office so far, I bet it will eventually reach 180 million, since there is money to be made, how can it not be found To the investors!" James said nonchalantly.
"200 million!" A clear voice came from the outside, "The final box office is 200 million!"
The few people who were still talking in low voices couldn't help but look at the source of the voice at the same time. It was a very beautiful little girl. She stood not far behind James with her hands on her back and her chest out. There is a faint smile, bright green eyes give people a dreamlike color, the whole person has a naive and lively atmosphere, like a little lady, but at the same time shows a mature taste, contradictory and unified, people do not want to take their eyes away .
"Hi, I'm Linda Hamilton, can you tell me your name?" Linda, who has always liked children, came to the little girl and asked with a smile.
Before the little girl could speak, Michael. Eisner has come over and introduced: "This is one of the protagonists tonight, Miss Angela Mason."
"Really?" Linda was a little surprised, and after taking a closer look at the little girl, she exclaimed, "It's surprising, Miss Mason, you are much more beautiful than you look in the movie."
"Thank you, Ms. Hamilton, you are much slender than you look in the movie. I can't believe that you and that strong woman are the same person." Angela smiled and glanced at Michael at the same time, remembering when George introduced it at the time , said he was the CEO of Disney, but he seemed to have seen it before.
"Darling, you can really talk." Linda covered her mouth and smiled, "You can be called Linda."
"Okay, Linda, you can also Angela." The little girl nodded very ladylike, then came to James Cameron and stretched out her hand: "Nice to meet you, Mr. James Cameron, I am very Love your movies."
"I'm also happy to meet you, Miss Mason." James' eyes flickered at her. If Angela didn't know enough about this talented director, he would probably think that he was the same kind of strange uncle.
"You can call me Angela." The little guy shrugged.
"Okay, Angela, although I'm glad you're so sure that Terminator 2 will hit 200 million at the box office, can you tell me why you're so sure?" James asked with interest, including Mr. Nei Du showed a look of attention, and everyone was very curious as to why this little girl said such a thing.
"It's very simple," Angela calmly raised a finger and said with a smile: "First, this is Terminator 2."
Then he raised a second finger: "It's directed by James Cameron!"
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. It was really outrageous to say such flattering words from a little girl's mouth, but the little guy quickly continued to say: ""Terminator 2" will become a science fiction A classic in film history, there is no doubt that this film will be tied with Mr. Stanley Kubrick's "2001 Space Odyssey", Mr. George Lucas' "Star Wars", because " Terminator 2 presents for the first time the question 'Will human beings be destroyed by robots created by themselves?' Fighting to attract an audience is fundamentally different!"
As soon as this sentence was said, everyone present opened their mouths, but Angela didn't seem to want to let them go, and a series of comments came out of their mouths again, comments on the whole movie, on James' shooting technique The analysis, the use and integration of special effects, etc., almost all the praise and criticism of "Terminator 2" in the previous life, so that people around, whether it is Mr. Governor, Ms. Linda, or James, Michael can hear it. I was dizzy, but fortunately Angela was still somewhat awake. She had written over many professional terms, and tried her best to tell it from the perspective of a little girl, otherwise God knows how people will react.
"... So with this writing factor in it, it is normal for the US box office to exceed 200 million. I believe that the box office outside the US may be more than 300 million." Angela finally ended her speech.
"My God, this is the most informative and accurate comment I've ever heard!" James suddenly picked up the little girl and kissed her hard on the cheek.
Although she couldn't help panicking in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, but frowned and said, "Mr. James, maybe you should shave your beard."
"I'm sorry, I'm very sorry," James, who was excited, put her down and kept apologizing, "I'm so excited."
"It's not surprising, even I was surprised, Miss Mason, are you really only 11 years old?" Arnold. Schwarzenegger also nodded and said that he very much agreed with Angela's analysis of the character image just now.
"Angela, dear, did you really analyze this by yourself?" Linda asked at this time.
"Most of it is my opinion, and some refer to a lot of movie reviews." Angela shrugged, well, these are indeed her opinions in a broad sense.
"It's unbelievable, it's really surprising." James couldn't help but be puzzled after he calmed down completely, but Michael took over the topic: "There's nothing unbelievable about this, I think you are watching " I'm afraid I didn't notice that in the screenwriter's column, Nancy's name was written under Miss Mason."
Everyone was stunned, and it took James a long time to react: "Michael, are you saying that the screenwriter of your current movie is Angela? Are you joking?"
The old man smiled and spread his hands, and did not answer directly, but the meaning was already obvious.
"You surprise me, Angela, do you think I'm getting old?" James said jokingly.
"I just did some processing on the basis of my life, it's not too difficult." Angela shrugged.
"Look, Angela is humble again, you must know that she just completed a first-class script not long ago." Michael said again at this time.
"Oh? What script?" James said with interest.
"You wouldn't be interested, Jim, at least I haven't seen you in a romantic comedy movie."
"Come on, Michael, it doesn't matter if I can shoot you."
Seeing that the two people were entangled on this issue, the little girl stuck her tongue out and wanted to run away. She had planned to come over to meet the genius director who pursued perfection to the point of almost ruining the film company and the future who was born in bodybuilding. Mr. Governor, but when her mind became hot, she said too much. At this time, she also vaguely remembered that she had seen Michael Eisner at her father's reception before. He said so much just now that he was obviously making up his mind, so he left quickly and went home after the reception was over.
But although the idea is good, she may not be able to do it. Just when she was sneaking back when everyone's attention was on James and Michael, she suddenly bumped into someone and stepped on his foot accidentally. superior.
