In the well-arranged small studio, the magnesium lights are bright, and a pair of young men and women wearing only underwear under the command of the photographer pose in various intimate poses, suddenly sitting back to back, suddenly women snuggling in the arms of men, suddenly hugging and whispering, and suddenly looking at each other affectionately......
Two of the world's best bodies are placed here, filming the latest lingerie commercial for Armani.
Gisele Bonson is very professional, and as a top model in the new generation, such a job is not difficult for her at all, but Matthew occasionally makes some mistakes, after all, he is not professional.
After filming one set, Matthew and Gisele Bonson then went to the locker room to change to another set and then came out to continue filming.
Since the first two days of the video ad were filmed, the last day was mainly a print ad.
This underwear advertisement seems to be particularly glamorous, but it is a bit boring to shoot, not to mention Matthew, a non-professional, even Gisele Bonson, more often than not, he is following the photographer's command.
Of course, the work itself is boring, but wearing the thinnest and shortest clothes and constantly contacting, the interest of the two people at work is high.
When the last set of lingerie was filmed, Matthew walked into the same dressing room with Gisele Bonson, and the door to the dressing room slammed shut.
No one in the studio was surprised, it seemed commonplace.
"The modeling industry is already messier than Hollywood. ”
On the plane back to Los Angeles, Helen Herman looked at the very few people in the first-class cabin and said to Matthew next to her, "You'd better be careful, be careful of getting sick." ”
She specifically reminded, "Don't forget Jessica Alba. ”
Matthew put the blanket sent by the flight attendant over his body, "Safety is no small matter, and I have always adopted safety measures." He shrugged his shoulders and said, "I called Jesse specifically, she went to the gynecologist that day, and then she was photographed by the paparazzi, and she was arranged to sell the photos to the tabloids." ”
Helen Herman turned her head to look at Matthew, "Do you believe it?"
"I'd rather believe Jessica Alba. Matthew said calmly, "I don't believe in tabloids either." ”
Not to mention entertainment gossip tabloids, even "Variety" and "Hollywood Reporter", which are a few large entertainment newspapers in North America, will also catch the wind and catch the news, and the two media have always been known for selling covers and layouts.
Helen Herman was on the studio yesterday and asked, "What are you going to do when Gisele Bonson is chasing you out?"
"I her up. Matthew told the truth.
Helen Herman's face didn't change, "I don't sound like that. ”
Matthew tightened his blanket and said, "That's one thing, and that's the other thing......," he thought for a moment, "Gisele Bonson wants a stable relationship, and probably a marriage in the future." ”
'I heard her mention Victoria and Beckham. Helen Herman added.
"Well...... Matthew continued, recalling the situation, "she wants a stable relationship, but the person she is dating must not be an ordinary person, that is contrary to her future career plan, she needs a boyfriend who is rich and famous and can match her in appearance." ”
He stretched out his finger and nodded his forehead, "I'm rich, famous, handsome and good-looking......"
Helen Herman is used to Matthew's cheekiness.
Matthew was ashamed, "Besides, I'm not the one who doesn't like that clock. On the contrary, I am very easy to use. So, Gisele Bonchen thought he could try to get along with me. ”
Helen Herman only thought about it briefly and understood the meaning of Matthew's words, and said, "Beckham and Victoria are indeed examples of 1+1 being far greater than 2 successes. No wonder Gisele Bonson threatened Heidi Klum at Victoria's Secret, and she was a smart woman. ”
Matthew smiled, "As I understand it, she wants to be America's Beckham and Victoria with me." ”
"You can think about it. Helen Herman said directly, "You are now the first movie star born in Hollywood after the 80s, Gisele Bonson is the best of the new generation of female models, and your light together will be as bright as the sun." ”
"Forget it. Matthew shook his head slowly, "This is what she desperately needs, not what I need." ”
Helen Herman was just a proposal, and seeing that Matthew didn't make any sense of it, she didn't mention it anymore.
Matthew's idea is simple, if Gisele Bonson is willing to have a physical exchange with him, he will welcome him with his hands and talk about feelings, forget it.
He wasn't even thirty years old, and he didn't have to hurry to stabilize himself, or bolt himself to a certain pillar.
When it comes to relationships, if you have a fixed girlfriend, you have to be responsible for each other, which is too early for Matthew.
Helen Herman shifted the conversation to the point, saying, "I've met with Giorgio Armani and several senior executives of the Armani company, and as long as you can meet your expectations this time the underwear endorsement effect, when the Armani men's ready-to-wear endorsement contract expires, there is hope to replace him." ”
Matthew asked, "Who is the Armani Men's Ready-to-Wear Ambassador?"
"George Clooney. Helen Herman said blandly, "A man who relies on politics to brush up his style." ”
Matthew hasn't dealt with George Clooney, and it's not very clear what he does.
Helen Herman added, "There is still some time left in his contract, we can plan slowly, and at present, among the first-tier luxury men's ready-to-wear brands, Armani's endorsement contract with George Clooney is the closest to expiration, which is why I have been seeking Armani." ”
One thing suddenly occurred to her, "George Clooney is said to be close friends with Brad Pitt. ”
"Brad Pitt?" Matthew thought back, "I haven't heard that name in a long time." ”
Helen Herman nodded slightly, "After the last incident, he was bombarded by public opinion, and he has already transformed into the background. She told the truth, "Hollywood is not a moral circle, as long as there are good works, it is not difficult to wash the stain." ”
Matthew couldn't agree more.
"Let's talk about George Clooney. Helen Herman didn't talk much about Brad Pitt, who was already left behind by Matthew, "and he's arguably one of the most successful Hollywood male stars." ”
Turning to Matthew, she added, "Not under you." George Clooney is known as the perfect male god, which is an important reason why he has been able to serve as the spokesperson of Armani men's ready-to-wear. ”
Matthew nodded, "It's better for you to find a way to do this kind of headache." ”
George Clooney is also an A-list star, even if he relies on politics to brush up his style, he also has successful works to build upon.
Helen Herman said calmly, "I've been trying to figure out a way. ”
The two were silent for a while, Matthew couldn't sleep for a while, and then asked, "Helen, you just talked about selling characters, is it me who is the most successful in selling characters in the entire entertainment industry?"
"You think too highly of yourself. Helen Herman said lightly, "Compared to some people, you are far behind." ”
"For example?" asked Matthew.
Helen Herman said casually, "There is a woman who sells perfect characters and really conquers the United States, black, who was forced when she was young, and then became self-reliant and self-reliant, becoming a generation of talk show queens, and then entering the business world and being a boss is also very popular." ”
Needless to say, Matthew knew who she was referring to, "Oprah Winfrey?"
Helen Herman nodded slightly, "The last entertainment industry figure who sold perfect characters so successfully was probably traced back to Audrey Hepburn." ”
"Goddess. Matthew sighed.
Whether it's photos, movies, or various reports, Audrey Hepburn is so perfect, definitely the goddess in his heart.
It's a pity that I wasn't born in the same era.
Any celebrity has black spots, even he is no exception, from the beginning to the present, there are countless gossip reports on his private life.
But whether there are black spots or not is not directly related to whether they are popular in Hollywood, or even whether they are respected or not.
Back in Los Angeles, Matthew went to meet with David Ellison again, but David Ellison still didn't make up his mind, after all, it was not cost-effective to take the sequel copyright of a super-hit film like "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" and try to exchange the copyright of a cut movie like the "Fast and Furious" series.
David Ellison did not refuse, but went to do relevant market research, and his own influence has played a huge role.
If it weren't for the successive successes of the starring films, and they were all super profitable, giving people the impression that the selection of films was unique, it would be impossible to move David Ellison at all.
This kind of thing should not be rushed, and rushing may have the opposite effect.
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have so much money, and meddling might trigger an unknown effect, the risk was a bit big, and Matthew wanted to buy it himself.
However, he knew that this was a very stupid idea, and buying the rights from Universal Pictures might require him to smash all his working capital and go to the bank to borrow again, and if he didn't do well, he would bankrupt himself.
Pulling David Ellison to share the risk is the best option.
After talking to David Ellison, Matthew paid a little attention to the DreamWorks side, Helen Herman has already started formal negotiations with the crew of "Transformers", this kind of work that uses dubbing to make quick money, Hollywood stars often do, not for a long time, but with millions of dollars in income, even if the film fails, it will basically not have a negative impact.
Of course, Helen Herman opened her lion's mouth again and made an offer of ten million dollars.
The specific salary figure must have gone through a tug-of-war, and Matthew then returned to the crew of "I Am Legend".
