Chapter 883: The Older You Get, the More Demonic You Become
In the dark of night, dappled street lamps illuminate the gloomy road, and a black sedan drives into Manhattan like a ghost, gradually approaching Central Park.
In the car, Ronan untied his bow tie and placed it on the seat on the other side.
Finch on the co-pilot is always on his toes, occasionally talking to the bodyguard vehicles in front and behind.
There was no one else in the car except the driver who drove the car.
That Duchen-Colos is very seductive, and with Daisy Brooke in the middle, it is not difficult for Ronan to do certain things if he wants to, with his wealth and status......
But Ronan only chatted casually, ignored Duchen Kolos, and politely declined Langley and Lloyd Blankfein's invitation to stay at the villa and play golf together.
Although he has never been a good person, let alone a serious person, Ronan still has the most basic vigilance.
There are some things that may not happen, but we have to guard against them.
Besides, if he wants, it is not impossible to find a group of Victoria's Secret angels to come over and have a party, so why take such a risk.
The car stopped next to a building near Central Park, and Ronan entered the gate without incident, took the elevator to the ninth floor, and knocked on the door of an apartment.
"Who?" came a wary question.
Ronan said to the camera at the door, "It's me." ”
The door opened, and Anne Hathaway grabbed Ronan and pulled him in, asking in surprise, "Why did you come here all of a sudden?"
Ronan kissed her hard, "I miss you." ”
Anne Hathaway rolled her eyes: "Another liar......
The night was long, and Ronan expressed with practical actions that he was not lying.
Compared to Du Chen-Klos, compared to the beautiful models everywhere in the villa, Ronan is still at ease enough with his Princess Anne.
As for the supermodel......
Ronan suddenly thought of something the next day, and the gossip articles he had read said that a considerable proportion of supermodels ended up marrying black people.
It is said that black people and supermodels are a perfect match.
Why is that?
Perhaps it is the supermodel who has gone through too many tests on the way from training to catwalk to fame, resulting in some kind of acquired defect, and it is precisely the innate advantage of black people that can make up for this defect.
Black people seem to have been supermodels, Ronan vaguely remembers that there was once a young black angel in Victoria's Secret, with a good body proportion, which simply killed a number of supermodels.
Of course, the looks have actually been mixed.
Ronan took advantage of the time before the premiere of "Mamma Mia" to go to Marvel.
Since Relativity Entertainment wholly acquired Marvel Comics, one of the largest comic book companies in the United States, it was officially reorganized into Marvel Entertainment, and Avi Arad has been the CEO.
Now, Marvel Entertainment has completed the transition smoothly, although Ronan has enough trust in the top management of Marvel Entertainment, but in fact, since the Stan Lee incident, he has agreed with Robert Iger to prepare to adjust the top management of Marvel Entertainment.
The specific plan and time are chosen after the release of "Iron Man" next year.
With the possible success of "Iron Man", offset the turmoil that adjustments may produce.
This adjustment is necessary, and both Ronan and Robert Iger are extremely unhappy with Avi Arad in the Stan Lee affair.
If it weren't for a smooth transition for Marvel Entertainment, Robert Iger would have gone under the knife on Avi Arad a long time ago.
The rise of new forces will inevitably be accompanied by the passing of old forces, which is the basic law of commercial society.
However, this plan is only between Ronan and Robert Iger, and outsiders have no way of knowing.
Marvel's business now revolves around movie plans, and even with a well-received hit work like "Civil War", it is an indisputable fact that the overall comic book market is sluggish.
The company's comic creation is like Hollywood film production, and all comic content production is for the pan-entertainment industry.
Continuing to rely solely on comics and the sales of comics' peripheral copyrights, Marvel Entertainment has only one way to go bankrupt.
Marvel Entertainment's "Avengers Project" is the core of the current business, in addition to "Iron Man", which has completed all production and is waiting for the release of next summer, "Hulk" is in preparation, and "Thor" and "Captain America" are also on the agenda.
The script for the first "Avengers" has actually been written.
Marvel Entertainment is moving step by step towards the path of success.
Of course, Ronan has also encountered some internal controversy at Marvel Entertainment.
Marvel's creative committee was not too happy with Kevin Feige and the film plan, believing that the film adaptation should follow the comic book setting.
Ronan didn't say much, but he no longer had any illusions about the old school, led by Avi-Arad.
Ahead of the third weekend in October, Embassy Pictures hosted a huge premiere of Mamma Mia on Broadway.
This film, adapted from the opera of the same name, has also attracted the attention of many lovers.
Revue has always been a major genre of North American cinema, once very popular in the sixties and seventies, and began to decline in the nineties, but after "Moulin Rouge" and "Chicago" there was a brief revival boom.
"Mamma Mia" can be said to be a continuation of the nostalgic craze for musical and dance dramas caused by these two films.
Moreover, the film also has Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan and the very popular young actress Amanda Seyfried in the last two years.
At the previous preview screening held by Embassy Pictures, the audience of the audition, including opera lovers, gave the film great praise.
The filming and production cycle of "Mamma Mia" is long, and the actors' professional singing and dancing training is an extremely important reason.
It's not impossible to find someone to sing for you, but in Hollywood film production, under normal circumstances, no actor will play a role in such a way that destroys his reputation.
There are also some actors who are incapable of singing and dancing, and use stand-ins, but instead advertise that they are doing their best, and in the end, their personalities collapse.
The two Wall Street business people did not attend the premiere because of their busy schedules.
Ronan was also politely invited at the time, knowing that the possibility of them coming over was very low.
However, Harvey Weinstein came from Los Angeles specifically.
When Meryl Streep appeared in the theater VIP room with Harvey Weinstein by the arm, no one, including Ronan, was surprised.
"I originally wanted Meryl to play the heroine of The Queen. Harvey Weinstein said to Ronan, "But the producers and directors of the crew insisted on using Helen Mirren ......"
Meryl Streep smiled and said, "Harvey, we have a chance to work together in the future, right?"
As she spoke, she winked at Harvey Weinstein.
Harvey Weinstein said, "Meryl is the best actress in Hollywood. ”
Ronan replied casually: "In this "Mamma Mia", Meryl's performance is very good. ”
"Thank you. Meryl Streep said: "It's an honor for Ronan to compliment him like that. ”
Ronan smiled and nodded.
Meryl Streep is a very smart actress with a very keen sense of smell in some aspects, she dares to scold some political bigwigs outside the circle, but she never provokes the bigwigs in the circle.
The former has limited influence on Hollywood and can highlight Meryl Streep's leftist stance.
The latter may cause her career to take a big turn in the road.
Relativity Entertainment and Meryl Streep are very purely commercial collaborations that do not involve personal relationships.
Ronan has always kept a distance from her, and as for the so-called Aunt Mei, it is estimated that a fool will come up and call Aunt Mei close.
Harvey Weinstein, who is very close to her, even negative distance, Meryl Streep used to be one of the most ruthless people in the world.
The fame of Hollywood artists has never had anything to do with artistic virtue.
After Meryl Streep walked away, Harvey Weinstein lowered her voice and said, "Ronan, I'm going to let 'The Queen' compete for the Oscar for Best Actress." ”
Ronan said, "Harvey, this is your freedom. ”
Harvey Weinstein has his own way of survival, he can go to Warner Bros. and the chairman or CEO of Universal Pictures, because they are just professional managers, but they don't want to scold Ronan, the boss of Relativistic Entertainment.
"You're ...... in the next two years," Harvey Weinstein gestured, "There's no plan for that, is there?"
In his opinion, Ronan is good friends with many Hollywood actresses, and maybe he will do something at the Oscars.
Ronan shook his head slowly but firmly: "Oscar is not among them. ”
Harvey Weinstein, who is also a producer, understood what Ronan meant, and couldn't help but admire: "You still have a way, and the role alone can solve the problem." On my side, sometimes it's more troublesome, let's just say Helen Mirren, at least one Oscar nomination for Best Actress......"
Ronan was speechless and could only say that Harvey Weinstein's appetite was just too good.
Harvey Weinstein seemed to guess what Ronan was thinking, and said, "Occasionally you have to change your taste, and some people, the older you get, the more demonic you become." ”
Ronan vaguely remembers that Helen Mirren seemed to be a few years older than Meryl Streep.
Pierce Brosnan came over to say hello to Ronan at this time, and although he is in his fifties, the retired James Bond is still personable and more of a gentleman than the first 007 Sean Connery.
In Ronan's mind, Sean Connery can be the representative of the English gentleman, probably like the traditional English gentleman, who looks good manners, but behind the scenes is a different face.
The traditional English gentlemen and aristocrats are actually a group of things, it is estimated that the whole world knows it, and the colonies where the sun never sets have deeply experienced it.
Harvey Weinstein then said, "Someone is coming to you, so I won't bother and talk another day." ”
Ronan nodded slightly: "Okay, let's talk another day." ”
As soon as Harvey Weinstein left on the front foot, a blonde girl walked up to Ronan and looked at Ronan's side: "Long time no see." ”
Ronan smiled slightly, "Hello, Amanda." ”
