Chapter 1015 It's hard to say
Out of the ladies' supply store, Jessica Felton met Ronan near the door, looked at his empty hands, and unceremoniously handed over the two heavy tote bags: "Honey, can you take it for me?"
"No problem. Ronan took it, then looked not far behind him, and immediately a bodyguard walked over quickly and took the handbag.
Jessica Felton couldn't help but laugh.
Ronan went over and picked her up and left, saying, "Accompany the lady to go shopping, of course, bring a few little brothers to help carry the bag." β
Jessica Filton glanced back and said, "Your little brother is so many. β
Ronan interlocked his fingers with her, and said generously: "No way, I'm timid, I'm afraid that someone will rob me." β
Today is the weekend, there are a lot of people in the business district, and many people's eyes fall on Jessica Filton and Ronan, Jessica Filton, who has delicate facial features, delicate skin and a hot body, is the focus, and Ronan is just the one in passing.
Fortunately, both of them are basically standing behind the scenes, and they don't have to worry about being watched.
"There are rumors in the company. Jessica Filton said as she walked, "Say you rejected the door-to-door recommendation of the copyright owner of "Cats"?"
There is no need for Ronan to deny it: "It doesn't feel like it's right. β
Speaking of movies, Jessica Filton has endless topics to talk about, and is curious: "I watched the stage play of "Cats" once, and it was very exciting. This drama has been launched for many years and has accumulated a large number of fans, isn't it very suitable for adapting movies?"
Ronan said simply: "The main reason is that the copyright fee is too high, how big is the risk of $60 million in royalties? If it is less than $10 million, I will definitely not refuse." β
After a pause, he added, "There is one more thing I have doubts about. The stage and the film are two different forms of expression, how should the cat in the stage play be represented in the movie?"
Jessica Filton replied naturally, "In order to play the effect of a stage play, let's look like a stage play." β
Ronan reminded, "Jesse, if you use your imagination, what kind of effect would it be if you used motion capture or CG to make a cat character similar to a stage play?"
Jessica Felton has a wealth of experience in filmmaking, and as a predominantly commercial producer, she is also very familiar with computer special effects, and can't help but imagine it in her head.
I don't know what, but the cat character I imagined in my mind based on the characteristics of CG production actually has a ghostly and terrifying feeling.
"It's ......" Jessica Filton didn't know what to say.
Ronan smiled and said, "Honey, it seems that we have the same mind and thought together. In filmmaking, if the character is biased towards people like a stage play, it may not end up with a cat, but a terrifying monster. β
Jessica Felton shook Ronan's hand: "Maybe we were wrong, or maybe once the adaptation will become another classic case of the uncanny valley theory." β
"If I'm willing to sell the rights for a few million dollars, I can still make a cult movie. Ronan said casually: "But $60 million, the risk is too big for me to accept." β
The two went up from the first floor to the second floor to the door of a low-key-looking yoga club.
"You wait for me at the door for a moment. Jessica Filton leaned over and kissed Ronan lightly: "Men are not allowed here, I'm going to get next month's yoga program." β
Ronan waved his hand and sat down somewhere, "Go." β
Jessica Felton moved quickly, came out in less than three minutes, took Ronan's arm, and said, "Let's go." β
Ronan asked, "Don't buy anything else?"
Jessica Felton shook her head slightly, "No need. β
Ronan glanced at the time and said, "It's just right, I'll tell the chef to get ready, go to my place for lunch." β
"Okay. Jessica Felton answered.
Ronan pulls out his phone and calls Nikia, the housekeeper, and asks her to inform the kitchen to prepare.
Half an hour later, Ronan returned to the manor with Jessica Felton, who was no stranger to the two before, and had been very good friends before, and she had visited more than once.
The people in the manor, especially the housekeeper Nikia, are also familiar with Jessica Filton, and with Jessica Filton's character, it is not difficult to get along with the staff of the manor.
In fact, outside of work, Jessica Felton has always been a very simple person.
Just after lunch, Ronan and Jessica Filton had just returned to the large living room when Nikia, the butler, came over and whispered, "Mr. Cruise is here, and he has entered the door." β
Ronan nodded slightly: "I know, let him come directly." β
But two minutes later, Tom Cruise's voice came in: "You're welcome, I just had lunch and came over to talk to Ronan about something." β
As he spoke, Tom Cruise's figure appeared.
Ronan greeted him and shook his hand: "How do you have time to come." β
Tom Cruise, who has been friends with Ronan for many years, said with a grin: "Send you an invitation to the premiere, and by the way, complain about my ex-wife......"
"Ugh. He saw Jessica Felton and hurriedly greeted, "Hi, Jesse, I didn't expect you to be here too." β
Jessica Filton smiled and said, "Hi, Tom. β
As someone who came over, Tom Chris looked at Jessica Felton and then at Ronan, guessed a little, and said, "You two are ......"
Ronan said directly: "Jesse is my girlfriend now, and the two of us are officially dating. β
Tom Cruise looked at Ronan's eyes, full of puzzlement and doubt, but he didn't want to say anything more in person, handed the invitation in his hand to Ronan, and said deliberately: "Jesse, you and Ronan must arrive at the premiere of "Mission Impossible 3". β
Jessica Filton had a bunch of work on her hands and couldn't give a definite answer at all, so she could only smile and say, "I'll try my best." β
Tom Cruise didn't complain about his best ex-wife to Ronan anymore, and said, "The invitation is here, I won't bother you, let's go first." β
As he spoke, he quietly gave Ronan a look.
Ronan understood what Tom Cruise meant, and said, "Let's go, I'll send you out." β
Jessica Felton also saw Tom Cruise's eyes, but smartly pretended not to see it, said a kind word to Tom Cruise, turned around and returned to the large living room, and looked at several decorative paintings on the wall seriously.
Ronan sent Tom Cruise out of the front door, Tom Cruise glanced back, saw that no one was coming, and asked in a low voice, "Are you serious?"
"Of course!" Ronan said, "I've never been so emotionally serious. β
Tom Cruise shook his head and sighed, "Ronan, you've changed." β
Ronan didn't quite understand what he meant: "Has it changed? β
"Remember what I told you?" Tom Cruise patted Ronan on the arm: "In short, with a fixed woman by your side, you will understand the future, it's hard to say." β
Thinking of Tom Cruise's feud with Nicole Kidman, Ronan didn't know what to say, so he could only start from himself: "Since I chose, I won't regret it." β
Tom Cruise said: "Whatever choice you make, I'm here to support you. He walked towards his car: "Alright, go back to Jesse, I should go." β
Alone in the sports car, Tom Cruise kicked the accelerator, and the blue sports car was speeding and quickly rushed out of the door of the future world estate.
Ronan looked at the vanished car, shook his head, and turned back.
There's also a whole afternoon where he and Jessica can study the view.
Jessica has been practicing yoga, which is said to do a lot of incredible poses.
In April, after a few weeks of screenings, the North American box office of "Hairspray", which has been well received by the market, easily crossed $100 million, reaching $106.54 million.
Due to the typical American social themes of the film, the overseas response has also been much worse, and less than $35 million has been received so far.
But compared with the investment in the film, "Hairspray" still deserves the comment of a market explosion.
In addition, Adele, as the heroine, became popular with her brilliant singing and dancing scenes, which is quite similar to BeyoncΓ© after the release of "Dream Girl" last year.
Relativity Entertainment's Big Machine Record is also preparing to take the opportunity to launch Adele's first solo music album.
This British girl with dreams is on her way to becoming a pop superstar.
There is also good news, the hoe wielded by Big Machine Records is very diligent, coupled with the chaos within the entire Disney, Scott Bocheta, after a long lobbying, finally moved Selena Gomez's parents to successfully sign Selena Gomez after Selena Gomez's contract with Disney Children's Channel expired at the end of March.
To a certain extent, Disney itself also played an assistive role.
Selena Gomez watched her contract expire, and Disney had no one to talk to her and her parents about renewing her contract.
This also allowed Big Machine Records to sign Selena Gomez without much cost.
The crew of "Beauty and the Beast" just entered April, signed a directing contract with British female director Philippa Lloyd, and then got the contracts of the male and female protagonists James Franco and Amanda Seyfried.
With the director in place, the preparation of this live-action fairy tale film has suddenly accelerated, and it is expected to start filming in September, and all the scenes will be filmed within the year.
In April, Relativity Entertainment released two films, namely the small production "Human Skin Inn 2" and the pseudo-documentary production "District 9".
Needless to say, the first part has already brought a certain influence.
The latter has attracted a lot of attention, because Embassy Pictures not only appropriately used viral marketing when promoting it, but also kept bringing out the rumored "District 51" to tell the story.
District 51's influence in North America and even the world is not ordinarily large.
