"Vicky, is this the Sunset Tower Hotel diagonally opposite Andaz?" In the driver's seat, a white man in his thirties with a rough face asked while staring at the road ahead.
"Of course, are there two Sunset Tower hotels on Sunset Boulevard?" Virginia, who was on the co-pilot, answered, took out a small mirror from her handbag, looked at the makeup on her face, and took out a piece of lipstick Carefully smeared the corners of his lips a few times, this action somehow made the man in the driver's seat a little dissatisfied: "Vicky, I really don't understand why you want to get involved with that brat, you two are so different age."
"It's all said, I don't need you to deal with my personal affairs," Virginia blurted out, and quickly realized that she shouldn't talk to her brother like this, and her tone softened: "Mike, I have a good time with him, he Although young, he was very considerate to me."
Michael Madsen still frowned: "That guy is destined not to make any promises to you, is he? He won't marry you."
When Virginia heard this, her eyes dimmed, and she said softly, "Originally, I never expected him to marry me."
∠,
"But you are already twenty-eight years old. I hope you can find a reliable man to marry, instead of giving you a young boy as your lover." Michael's tone was slightly agitated, and he couldn't bear it in the end. Live patted on the steering wheel, turned to look at his sister: "I hope you are happy, Vicky."
"Can you be happy if you get married?" Virginia put the lipstick and small mirror back in her handbag and said, "Our parents are not happy at all, and you, you have already been divorced once."
Michael Madsen continued to persuade: "Because of this, I hope you can find a good man. There must still be good men in this world. Even if... you don't find the right man once, just try again. You see, although I was divorced, but I am very happy with Qina now, and in half a year, you may have a little nephew or niece."
"Okay, I see, Mike, let's not talk about this topic today, shall we?" Virginia began to change the subject with evasive eyes like all older young women who were forced into marriage, because her parents were divorced and her mother was busy with her career. She was almost brought up by this brother who is four years older than herself, so she can ignore even her parents, but she values the relationship with her brother very much.
"Well, if you don't like it, I won't say it," Michael Madsen looked helplessly at the road ahead.
Michael stopped this topic and Virginia was relieved. The two were quiet for a while, looked out the car window, and visually estimated that they were almost at the Sunset Tower Hotel. Then Virginia said again: "Mike, I know you don't Like him, but don't be rude later please, I hope you can get the role he said."
Michael Madsen said: "Of course I won't be rude, but I just want to watch your new movie this time, don't expect me to please him for a role."
Virginia was a little helpless. She knew this brother's temperament very well. To put it mildly, he was indifferent to fame and fortune. To put it bluntly, he was not enterprising. His original intention as an actor was to make a living rather than to become famous, and it is still the same now.
The two talked, and soon came to the Sunset Tower Hotel. Virginia saw a lot of paparazzi with cameras on their chests gathered outside the hotel, and quickly took out the sunglasses and put them on, but even so, it didn't stop the intuitive When the paparazzi found her figure, a group of people rushed over to the car window and took photos randomly. Seeing these guys who were desperate for the news, Michael reluctantly slowed down the speed of the car, which made the paparazzi even more excited and slapped the car window one after another. Shouted to Virginia in the car.
But even though the paparazzi yelled hoarsely and got no reply, the two brothers and sisters drove the car directly to the underground parking lot and entered the hotel along the internal elevator.
"Another one, just now Julia Roberts also came, I wonder what the hell Firefly is going to do?" A group of paparazzi were stopped by the security guards, and they could only continue to wait outside the hotel in disappointment, hoping that the next visitor could reveal something Specific news.
"You have only been here for less than ten minutes, Jake. In the past half an hour or so, several big names in Hollywood have entered."
"Oh Kane, who else is here already?" the paparazzi named Jake asked.
Kane leaned into Jake's ear and whispered: "Disney CEO, Michael Eisner, Warner's vice president in charge of distribution, and Paramount's president Nader Thane, Columbia's vice president Amy Pascoe, four of the seven major film companies have come here, let’s see, I think the remaining three will definitely send people.”
Jake fantasized about the scene in Kane's description, and couldn't help taking a breath: "No way, is something big going to happen in Hollywood?"
Kane shook his head: "I'm not sure about this, but it must be related to fireflies. I heard from an insider in the hotel that there will be a party tonight."
"Evening?" Jake looked at his watch: "It's only 1:35, you must have made a mistake. If there is a party at night, how could these big shots come here now?"
"There's nothing wrong with that, my informants work in the kitchen and they're tasked with preparing food for the party tonight."
Jake asked: "Kane, what do you think will happen?"
"Maybe... well, this incident is too abnormal, and I can't think of it, but there is no news that Firefly plans to acquire New Line Films during this period of time. I don't know if it has something to do with this incident. New Line is already a top second-tier film company. If it merges with Firefly, relying on Eric Williams' blockbuster films and the distribution ability of New Line, maybe within a few years, a new Hollywood will appear. Giant."
Ji Ke guessed: "Didn't you say that Firefly took the lead this time? Could it be that Firefly's new films have to choose distributors, so the top seven executives have come together?"
After saying this, Kane and the other paparazzi who were listening to the conversation were taken aback for a moment, and then all laughed. One of the paparazzi said mockingly: "How is it possible, you don't necessarily value the appeal of Firefly too much. The film directed by Eric Williams himself may be able to attract the attention of the top seven executives. After all, he has fully proved his strength. But everyone knows that the distribution rights of Eric's next two films belong to Fox."
Jike also felt that his guess was a bit unrealistic, scratching his head and retorting softly: "Didn't you say that "Small Island" and "Scent of a Woman" were scripts written by Eric Williams himself?"
However, his words were not taken seriously by other paparazzi. A group of people continued to discuss the purpose of these people gathering, while looking forward to the arrival of others.
Many times, guesses that seem absurd are often true.
This event is indeed just an internal test film meeting hosted by Firefly for "Small Island" and "Steel Magnolia".
When sending out the invitation, Eric also thought that the Big Six would probably only send one or two ordinary executives, but he soon received the first news, and Disney's Michael Eisner didn't know what he thought Yes, let the assistant contact Firefly, saying that he would watch the film in person, but this response made Eric, who originally planned to hold a test film meeting in the small screening room of Firefly headquarters, change the test film location to the Sunset Tower Hotel After all, Michael Eisner's status is placed there, and it would be very disrespectful to make do with Firefly's small screening hall.
Next, several other major film companies may also have heard the news that Michael Eisner will participate in the audition, and they all expressed that they would send important executives to participate.
However, among the top seven, only one CEO, Michael Eisner, was present at the helm. For the others, Paramount sent a president, and Columbia sent Amy Pascal, who had a good relationship with Eric. Companies are either vice presidents or executives who hold a lot of weight. But even so, this lineup can be called extravagant. Executives at the president level of the seven major film companies gathered together just for the distribution rights of one or two films. It is estimated that this has not happened in the past ten years.
The Virginia brothers and sisters took the elevator to the floor where the film screening was located. Just as they walked out, Virginia saw Eric's assistant Alan Fissman waiting by the elevator.
"Hello, Alan, where's Eric?" Virginia stepped forward and asked.
"Mr. Williams is very busy and can't come out to pick you up. Miss Madsen, please come with me. I'll take you to the lounge." Allen said politely.
Virginia nodded in disappointment. Michael Madsen, who saw this scene, didn't know the specific situation. He directly thought that Eric was a little cold to his sister, and he was very angry. But although they were very upset, they didn't show it, and the two followed Allen to a lounge.
After walking in, Virginia saw that many people had already gathered in the lounge. The director of "Steel Magnolia" Herbert Ross and the leading actors Julia Roberts, Sally Field, Shirley McLean and others, but there is only Jonathan Demme alone in the "Small Cry" crew. It seems that the situation is a bit bleak. This situation is not difficult to understand. Therefore, they did not come to the audition, and the other actors were not well-known, and they were not leading actors, so they were not eligible to participate in this audition. The crew of "Steel Magnolia" is different. Needless to say that Herbert Ross is the director. , Shirley MacLean both have a series of Oscar awards, their qualifications and fame even surpass Julia, and the other three leading actresses are also famous actresses for a long time.
Seeing Virginia appear, Jonathan Demme finally showed an expression as if he saw a comrade in arms, and stood up first to greet Virginia. The members of the "Steel Magnolia" crew also stood up and greeted the girl.
