Chapter 337: Film Society
In Murphy's understanding, all the characters in "Game of Thrones", just like the people in the vanity fair of Hollywood where he lives, and even himself, cannot be distinguished by simple concepts of good and evil, human nature is complex, and the same is true of real society.

For two weeks, Murphy and George Martin led the entire crew, basically got the script for the first ten episodes of the first season, and then gave everyone, including himself, a vacation off to deal with the hectic work that followed.
In the past two weeks, the popularity of "Gone Girl" has almost completely subsided, earning just over $6 million, and the North American box office has accumulated nearly $220 million.
As it continues to appear in more overseas markets, the film's overseas box office continues to grow, thanks to the performance of overseas markets, the global box office of the film has successfully exceeded $450 million, which is also the fourth highest-grossing film in the world so far this year.
"Murphy has another film that surpasses $400 million!"
On the UCLA campus, Gal Gadot walked out of the dorm building with his bag on his back and a girl came up from behind, saying, "He's doing a great job!" Gail, your friend must be a superstar director in Hollywood in the future. ”
Gal Gadot turned his head and smiled at her, "Thank you." ”
The girl followed her closely and said, "You have a good eye. ”
She really admired Gal Gadot for being able to find such a person as a boyfriend, and the whole academy didn't know how many people were envious and jealous of this Israeli girl.
"Minna ......" Gal Gadot slowed down, "I don't associate with Murphy, not because he's a Hollywood director, he's just Murphy Stanton." ”
If net worth is used as the criterion for choosing a boyfriend, she can find many people in Israel with better conditions than Murphy.
But others didn't know this, and the girl named Minna, who was one step behind Gal Gadot, rolled her eyes slightly, "yes, I know that. ”
She pouted again, if it weren't for Murphy Stanton, Gal Gadot would have become the man of the year in the whole college? Can there be such a good living condition? She didn't believe it.
Even if she didn't look back, Gal Gadot could guess what the people behind would think, but she didn't care, anyway, the other party was just her classmate in the school film club, not a friend, and as long as she understood why she fell in love with Murphy, it would be enough.
If you keep paying attention to the opinions of the people around you, you don't know how much boredom you will add to your life.
Instead of worrying about these things, it is better to spend more time and energy on your studies.
"What are they looking for me?"
Walking down the hillside where the dormitory area is located, Gal Gadot asked Minna behind him, "I specially asked you to come over." ”
Because of Murphy, when choosing an extracurricular club, she deliberately chose the film club, and the last time she went to San Francisco, she also went with the club to shoot an amateur documentary, but those guys were the same as her, the level was really amateurish, and the difficulties were not expected before the preparation, and before the filming was completed, the funds and film were exhausted, so she had to return to Los Angeles early, which also led to her filming Natalie Portman's disgusting scene.
"Nothing special."
Gradually approaching the small building where the film club is located, Minna said with a smile, "The club is preparing for an anniversary party, and John and Mawson want to discuss it with you, the vice president." ”
"Looking for me?" Gal Gadot shook his head, "Didn't you say that when I was pushed into this position by you? I will attend club activities on time, but I will not be responsible for specific matters. ”
Of course, she knew that those guys had made themselves the so-called vice presidents, and it was entirely because of Murphy.
"This is the most important event of the year for the club." Minna persuaded from the side, "You are a star and representative of the film community, of course you can't be absent." ”
Since he has joined the film club, even for the sake of future credits, these activities cannot be ignored and ignored, Gal Gadot nodded and walked into the small building first.
"Hi Gail."
"Gail, come here."
As soon as he walked into the room where the film club was located, there was immediately a sound of greeting, and Gal Gadot also smiled and nodded in response one by one, impeccable in terms of politeness.
When he was going to the study hall later, Gal Gadot looked at his watch and said to the two leaders of the club, "John, Mawson, I heard Minna say that you are looking for me, what is the matter?" ”
A boy in his twenties with short brown hair said, "Well, the club is holding an anniversary party this weekend, and in addition to the club members and school classmates, we also plan to invite some guests over. ”
Gal Gadot immediately understood that John should have set his sights on Murphy.
John turned to look at the other blonde boy, "Mawson invited his cousin Elizabeth Holmes, you see......"
He was relatively reserved, and the blonde boy named Mawson on the other side said, "Can you invite Murphy to the anniversary party?" We are a film club, and we have always wanted to ask some questions from professionals in the industry, but we can't find the opportunity. ”
"Gale ......," John also said, "our club has not been established for a long time, and many students in the School of Literature and Art have the intention of developing in Hollywood in the future...... Well, can you invite Murphy? ”
Minna leaned in and said, "yes, Gail. I'm from the Academy of Arts, and John and Mawson are from the Academy of Letters, and we both love movies very much, but we can't get in touch with Hollywood successes, so you can ask Murphy for us, okay? ”
Another girl was also helping, "We promise not to cause any trouble." ”
"Gir, please." John, who is the head of the film club, said earnestly, "Can you please help us?" ”
There were more than a dozen people gathered in the room, and they all gathered around for a while, standing next to them and persuading Gal Gadot, Gal Gadot sighed, knowing that if he didn't contact Murphy, he would really offend people.
Although she doesn't particularly care about this, she will have to stay in this academy for a long time in the future, and it is impossible to mess up the most basic classmate relationships.
"Everyone, be quiet!" Seeing that his words didn't have any effect, Gal Gadot had to raise his voice, "Everyone, be quiet, okay!" ”
Hearing these crisp and loud words, the room gradually fell silent, and John, Mawson, Minna and the others all looked at Gal Gadot, knowing that their hopes were pinned on this Israeli girl.
These people are still students in the ivory tower, and they don't have much mind, and if they really want to play any thoughts, they may not be Gal Gadot's opponents, compared to them, Gal Gadot has followed Murphy in and out of various Hollywood meeting places many times, and has seen more people wearing masks.
They are all people who love movies, and although they missed specialized schools such as the USC Film School and the New York University Film Institute for various reasons, they will not give up their dreams easily, but the last trip to San Francisco also really felt the gap between dreams and reality, and desperately hoped for someone to show them the way.
Even if there is chaos ahead, there can be a more correct direction forward.
It's not a day or two since joining the film club, and Gal Gadot knows that most of these classmates are idealists, and they are also relatively pure movie-loving people.
She sighed, pulled out her phone, and motioned to the crowd, "I'll call Murphy now." ”
"Okay!"
"Wow!"
"Long live Gail!"
"Duoduo is the best!"
There was a cheer in the room, and it was not until the crowd was quiet again that Gal Gadot added, "I can only convey your invitation, and I cannot make any promises yes or no." ”
She didn't want to interfere directly with Murphy's decision, even if she knew that her phone call was coming, it represented an attitude.
Gal Gadot opened the door and walked out, out of the small building, found a quiet place in the shade of a tree, and did not call Murphy's phone directly, but first sent a text message, and after getting Murphy's reply that he was not busy for the time being, he dialed his number.
"Hi dear." Murphy waved his hand at Bill Rossis and Grace, then walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Gal Gadot let out a "hmm" from the earpiece, and she said, "I joined a club at school. ”
She didn't specifically tell Murphy which club she was participating in, so she had to explain, "It's the film club here." ”
"Oh......" Murphy quipped, "so my blossoms are also interested in movies." ”
Gal Gadot rolled his eyes, "I just wanted to have more of a common language with you." ”
Murphy saw her dedication to this relationship very clearly, and couldn't help but lower her voice and said, "Thank you, dear." ”
"My club has an anniversary party over the weekend," Gal Gadot didn't answer Murphy's words, "and the leaders wanted to invite some weighty guests. ”
Murphy suddenly realized, "So they found you and wanted you to invite me." ”
Gal Gadot didn't deny it either, and said directly, "Hmm...... That's pretty much it. ”
After saying this, she didn't speak again, so as not to affect Murphy, just waiting for his decision.
"Wait a minute." Murphy turned to Bill Rothes and asked, "Is there any schedule for this weekend?" ”
"There's an event." Bill Rothes glanced at the daily schedule and said, "You don't have to attend. ”
"Then I'm not going."
Murphy knew very well that if he refused, it would definitely make it difficult for his girlfriend to do it among his classmates, and he said into the phone, "It's okay on the weekend, I have time, I can go to participate." ”
"Hmm......" Gal Gadot's voice came from the earpiece again, "then I'll tell them." ”
"Ah, yes, and." Murphy admonished again, "Remember to tell them that there is anything to discuss in private, and not to engage in public activities." ”
Students are always passionate, and sometimes they can be a headache.
"No problem." Gal Gadot was about to hang up, "Then we'll see you at the weekend." ”
Murphy also said the last sentence into the phone, "Okay, see you on the weekend." (To be continued.) )
