By Christmas 2010, Murphy was concentrating on his films, judging from the news given to him by Gal Gadot, while Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, and James Franco were jumping up and down in Hollywood, trying to expand their networks, and using the fame and appeal of Stanton's party to attract as many big-name stars as possible to make cameos in the film.

These stars appear in the form of soy sauce, which may not bring much box office appeal, but can significantly increase the topicality of the film.

As long as there is enough topicality, the promotion and marketing aspect will become much easier.

A week before Christmas, when Murphy spoke to Seth Rogan on the phone, he made it clear to Murphy that several of the most famous celebrities had made it clear that they would join the cameo lineup.

Among them, the most famous actor is Emma Watson; Rihanna, who has a close relationship with Seth Rogen, will also be involved in the filming.

This film is independently invested by Stanton Studios, although the investment amount is not large, but Murphy is quite concerned, because if such a film works well, it will inevitably make a lot of profits, and if it does not work well, it will become a complete bad movie.

No one wants to turn their investment into a bad movie, and Murphy is no exception.

Therefore, during the Christmas holiday, he specially summoned several of the film's main creators to Wave Manor, which was not only a big gathering of Stanton's party, but also to learn about the latest developments in the project.

On Christmas Day, James Franco and Lily Collins, Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill, Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey, Margot Robbie and Carla Firth, plus several agents led by Bill Rosies, came to the Wave Manor one after another to participate in Gal Gadot's elaborate Christmas party.

"Our wedding?"

In the face of Gal Gadot's inquiry, James Franco smiled helplessly and said, "It can only be postponed until next year." ”

Susan Downey asked with concern, "Why?" ”

Lily Collins explained, "James was going to work with Seth and them on the project, so we decided to push the wedding until next year. ”

The main topic of the party is the new project, Gal Gadot takes the ladies to the entertainment room, and the rest of the men discuss "The End of the World".

Several people sat around a large round table in the banquet hall, and Murphy, as the host, poured a cup of tea for each of them, and said, "Taste it, this is a top-quality dragon well from the other side of the Pacific Ocean, and the taste is more refreshing and refreshing than the black tea we drink regularly." ”

He put down the teapot, walked over to his seat, pulled out a chair and sat down, and asked, "How did you get Emma Watson?" And get her to agree to a cameo for a dollar friendship price? ”

If remembered correctly, they didn't have much to do with Emma Watson and the Harry Potter crew, and it wasn't easy to impress this British girl who was currently red and purple.

"This has nothing to do with me." Seth Rogan shook his head, "It was Bill who brought it in." ”

Bill Rothes put down his teacup and answered, "Emma Watson has been a CAA client for a few years ago, and a few months ago, I just became one of her co-managers. ”

"What a means, Bill!" Jonah Hill gave Bill Rothes a thumbs up directly.

It's not easy for a client like Emma Watson to get a position as an agent for her.

Bill Rothes smiled and added, "She's a smart girl, I just suggested it, and she said yes." ”

"Oh?" James Franco thoughtfully said, "It seems she's not stupid. ”

"I've dealt with Emma Watson." Robert Downey Jr. picked up the teapot, poured himself another cup, and said, "A very clear-headed girl, Natalie Portman's second." ”

Hearing him say this, several other people couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Murphy, who shrugged his shoulders, "Does it have anything to do with me?" ”

Jonah Hill gave him a middle finger directly, after all, everyone was well aware of the feud between Murphy and Natalie Portman back then.

"Emma Watson is really clear-headed." Bill Rothes fully agrees with Robert Downey Jr., "She is well aware of the dilemmas she may face in the coming years. ”

All of you here are Hollywood insiders, and you naturally know the meaning of Bill Rothes's words, the "Harry Potter" series is coming to an end, and a young actress and female idol who has been fixed is facing a very painful transition period.

In this way, everyone also understood that Emma Watson, under the advice of Bill Rossis, should want to have a good relationship with the Stanton party, especially Murphy, the party leader.

"What about Rihanna?" Robert Downey Jr. asked with concern.

"Uh......" Seth Rogen was still thinking about how to phrase it, and Jonah Hill directly leaked his old truth, "Seth and Rihanna are ******** everyone looked at Seth Rogen and laughed at the same time.

"Seth, you've got a lot of taste."

"Wow, Rihanna's taste is so strong."

Before you know it, the others split into two factions.

In short, in the mouths of Murphy and these people, whether it is Rihanna or Seth Rogen, they have become hardcore lovers.

After laughing for a while, everyone continued to discuss the topic of "Armageddon", and Bill Rothes added, "The company also has some contracted customers who are also interested in making cameos. ”

Murphy said, "You give Seth a list, and it's up to him to choose." ”

He remembered one more thing, "Seth, you contact Nicolas Cage." ”

Nicolas Cage also has a three-point low-pay contract with Stanton Studios, and Murphy originally wanted to use him in his next film, but the change in the role brought by Margot Robbie has made him decide to cancel that role and simply hand it over to Seth Rogan.

Most of the power of the crew, Murphy was delegated to Seth Rogen, who served as the director and producer, and the project was still handled by Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill and James Franco.

Of course, James Franco is habitually lazy, and Jonah Hill is sometimes unreliable, mainly relying on the fat man Seth Rogan.

"Seth, preparations are already underway." Murphy asked with concern, "When can I start shooting?" ”

"The fastest......" Seth Rogan thought about it seriously, "I won't start filming until mid-January at the earliest, and I plan to finish all the production in October next year, and Twentieth Century Fox wants to release it on Thanksgiving in November or Christmas in December." ”

"Yes." Murphy thought for a moment, "Seth, you're communicating with Carla Festor about this. ”

In fact, Carla Firth and Twentieth Century Fox did not attach much importance to the film "Armageddon", after all, for Twentieth Century Fox, a $30 million-level project is really nothing.

In addition to Seth Rogen, Murphy will also have Gal Gadot follow up on the release of Armageddon.

The main market for this film is still North America, in fact, including Murphy's new project, the project produced by Stanton Studios is mainly aimed at the North American market.

Not to mention now, even in the past five years, North America is still the world's largest film market, if you not only consider the box office, but also the income of the entire industry chain, I am afraid that for a long time in the future, North America will be the world's largest film market.

Therefore, Murphy shoots and produces films, and the first consideration is the North American audience, and then other markets.

For example, in the investment negotiations between Stanton Studios and Wanda, Wanda first put forward a request for an actress named Tian Jing on the other side of the Pacific Ocean to replace Margot Robbie as the heroine of the film.

At first, Murphy didn't figure out who the actress was, after all, the document in front of him was a transliterated name, and then he thought that it was the famous one......

It doesn't really matter who the actress Wanda asks is, because Murphy doesn't plan to use it at all, he knows that his kind of extremely dark film, even if it appears in the theater over there through the review of big scissors, there will not be too many audiences, and the box office will be very average.

As for the bulk of Hollywood movie profits, Murphy didn't even consider it, and this aspect is basically negligible.

But then again, what is the origin of that actress, Murphy is still quite curious, this is a question he once couldn't figure out, when the other party was unknown, she was able to let a group of big names serve her as green leaves, but she was not popular, and it was like a box office poison......

However, not only does this not have a negative impact, the actress's path is getting wider and wider, and she will play some very important roles in Hollywood super blockbusters, which has to be said to be a miracle.

What's even more surprising is that no matter which media it is, it doesn't dare to report her specific origin and who the people behind her are, and even the Internet, a relatively open place, can't find tangible information about her background.

An actress, to this extent, is definitely not able to be maintained or praised by the rich, if there is no strong background behind her, no one will believe it.

Whether it was Murphy in the past, or the well-informed Murphy now, they all think that this actress is definitely a super strange existence.

Because Murphy didn't plan to use actors from across the Pacific at all, he directly rejected Wanda's prerequisite, and the negotiations between the two sides inevitably broke down, and Murphy's idea of investing in Wanda Cinemas was completely aborted, and it may even affect the review of the film over there, and Twentieth Century Fox was also prepared that the film could not pass the review in the Pacific market.
