Chapter 105: I'll Help You Decide

In June, the heat wave of "Star Wars Episode 1: The Ghost Man Menace" began to drift across the ocean and spread around the world.

Although in North America, this movie has been released for more than ten days, but the popularity has not diminished, and the grand occasion is unprecedented, even surpassing that when "Titanic" was released.

Major film companies have avoided it, and the movies that are rushing for the schedule with "Star Wars" at this time are cannon fodder, and no one will release their own flagship movies during this period.

New Line Pictures' "Ace Spy 2" will be released on June 11, Disney's "Tarzan" will be released on June 16, Paramount's "The General's Daughter" will be released on June 18, Sony Pictures' "Fake Dad" will be released on June 25, Warner's "Hurricane" will be released on June 30, and Paramount's "South Park" will be released on June 30......

Throughout June, the major film companies were fighting each other, and they were like crazy to grab the film market.

Interestingly, everyone avoided the early June schedule, leaving a full 10-day window for Star Wars Episode 1: The Ghost Man Menace.

There is no way, they would rather fight each other than be wiped out in the frenzy of Star Wars.

The impression left by "Titanic" on everyone is too profound!

At this time, Natalie Portman also finished her final exams and came to California with her mother.

Shirley Herchler contacted a crew for her and wanted her to use the summer to shoot a movie, but when Donne heard about it, his face was not very good.

"I disagree!"

When Don heard about it, he immediately vetoed it and took Natalie's little hand, "Nat, I have arranged your career plan, I will make you the best and most dazzling female star in Hollywood, you can't make bad movies!"

"Bad movie?" Natalie and Don wore sunglasses and walked casually down the street, "Are you saying 'Sweetheart' is a bad movie? I've read the script, it's pretty good, and it's a twentieth century Fox romance movie." ”

Seeing that Don't have a good face, Natalie chuckled, "You're not afraid of me kissing the actor in the movie, right?"

Don waved his hand, with a straight face, "Honey, I have investigated that movie, and the investment is only 15 million US dollars, and the director is even more inexplicable, he has only made TV series before." Don't you trust my judgment?"

He was a little heartbroken.

Natalie's acting skills are excellent, she is more beautiful than flowers, she is both talented and beautiful, and she is insulated from scandals.

After the age of eighteen, before getting married, she never fell out of the top three in the selection of goddesses in various newspapers and magazines in the United States, and most of them were dominant.

is such an actress who looks perfect, but she has never really become a Hollywood A-list!

Even after she finished participating in the "Star Wars" trilogy and relying on "Black Swan" to seal it, she was a little short from the first-line position, and her salary was stuck at the threshold of $10 million.

This is somewhat poignant.

For the reason, it's similar to Nicole Kidman.

Nicole has become a box office poison because of her agent's problems, but she has a good reputation.

Natalie is sad, she has participated in many movies, the box office is poison, and word of mouth is also poison!

The reason is very simple, Natalie's agent is her mother, and her level is a hundred streets behind Pat Kingsley!

It can be seen from the fact that she picked up movies like "Sweetheart Iren" for Natalie, Shirley Hirschler's vision for choosing movies is almost zero, and she is lucky to be able to take on a movie like "Stealing Hearts".

Seeing Don En's heavy face and pity and distressed look, Natalie seemed to have an understanding, gently approached Don En's arms, and raised her delicate face, "Don En, did I do something wrong?"

"No, you're not wrong. Don shook his head frequently and sighed, "But your mother, Madame Herchler, is not a professional agent. ”

With Natalie's cleverness, she naturally understood what Don En meant, and frowned a little displeased, "But she's a mother!"

"That won't ruin your future either!"

Don felt that his tone was a little heavier, and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "Nat, you will be eighteen years old soon, and you can make your own decisions." ”

Natalie pouted, "You're not asking me to call the shots, you're asking me to listen to you." ”

Don said: "But in terms of movies, don't you think...... Am I more trustworthy than Mrs. Herschler?"

"Hmm. ”

Natalie nodded without hesitation, "I trust you, Donn. But...... What about my mom?"

"I'm going to tell her and I'm sure she'll understand you. ”

Don is full of confidence, he has basically understood Shirley Herschler's mind, and he is very sure.

"But what about Fox? I initialed the contract. Natalie blinked and looked at him with a smirk.

Tang En pinched her cheek lightly and said with a smile: "I'll deal with it! Don't say that you just initialed the contract, even if you sign it, I can help you get it!"

"Hee-hee, I knew you were the best!"

Natalie lifted her chin proudly and hugged Donn's arm, looking very happy.

"Nat, trust me, I will definitely make you the brightest female star in Hollywood!" Don put his arm around her shoulders and looked into the distance.

Natalie smiled and looked at her playfully, "Brighter than Katharine Hepburn?"

"Katharine Hepburn?" Donn paused, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "It's just four Oscar queens, it's not a big deal!"

"Bragging!"

Natalie snorted at her.

Don En was amused by her cute appearance, "By the way, your high school is over, which college did you apply to?"

"There are three in total, Harvard, Yale, Princeton. Natalie said lightly.

Don couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Sure enough, it's a top student!

These three universities are recognized as the three most difficult universities in the United States.

"What are you going to study in college?" Donn hopes that Natalie will study management and help him manage the company after graduation.

Natalie didn't think about it and said, "Clinical psychology." ”

"Ahh

Natalie said stupidly: "I want to study the psychology of human beings, especially you, you have three female companions at home, and you are still talking to me with my underage girlfriend outside, won't you feel guilty?"

"Ahem!"

Don En sweated, "Honey, didn't we talk about it, let's not talk about this topic. ”

"Why don't you say it?" Natalie snorted and gave him a wide roll of her eyes, "What I said before doesn't count, but now I understand it, I must face this topic squarely, otherwise after I go to college, we will live separately, and there will definitely be problems." ”

Don was surprised, "Nat, you're thinking long-term. ”

"I don't want to be long-term, you'll be robbed sooner or later. Natalie pursed her lips and sullen, "Don't think I don't know, Hollywood is a bunch of vixens." ”

Don smiled: "It's true that they are vixens, but I only have one queen, and that is Amidala." (Queen and queen are the same word queen.) )

Natalie pursed her lips and snorted softly, "They all praised me for bringing the role of Amidala to life." ”

"Of course, my Nat, the best actress, I said!"

"Will you arrange an agent for me?" Natalie looked up at him.

Don thought for a moment, "Well, I'll tell Brian and ask him to give you a termination fee, and you can transfer to CAA, he must be very happy." ”

"Oh. Natalie didn't hesitate, "I'll listen to you, if you convince my mother." ”

"I know, I've got your agent in mind too. ”

"Who?"

"Hilda Querry. ”

Natalie's eyes lit up, "That's the agent you introduced to Miss Nicole Kidman?"

Tang En was stunned for a moment, "You know all this?"

Natalie raised her little fist and snorted, "I still know a lot of things! I said, I have an inside line, don't try to hide it from me!"
