Jennifer Jefferson appeared at the Venice Film Festival and held the red carpet close. Despite the frowning of the upper echelons of the Venice Film Festival, the festival kicked off at the end of August, as expected. And despite all these troubles, the film festival's decision to invite "Monroe" and Jennifer is quite wise after all. -- During the 30-minute red carpet session, the atmosphere for the first 20 minutes or so was quite cold, but this time there were more reporters than in previous years, and there were even American media who bought the right to broadcast live and did a live broadcast across the sea. Jefferson's popularity. Of course, the number of spectators has also increased several times compared to previous years, and when Jennifer appeared, the scene was immediately fundamentally different from a few seconds ago, cheers, photos and crowds immediately transformed the very deserted red carpet scene into a Hollywood Kodak theater.

As one of the most important English-language media in Europe, the Times also published the news - for this newspaper that has always been very serious, it is rare for a newspaper to publish a report on the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival. Jefferson appeared on the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival in a long silver-white gown, which immediately provoked bursts of screams, and the 27-year-old actress starring "Iron Man" has just been released in the United Kingdom. At present, the global box office has gone to 890 million, because it has not yet been released in several important box office countries, this number may be refreshed again, if it can be lucky to break through 1 billion, then Jennifer Jefferson will have three starring movies that break 1 billion at the age of 27, which is terrifyingly young, and this outstanding achievement not only makes her the darling of major Hollywood studios, but also makes her enter the hearts of the world's audiences and become the favorite female star of the global audience. In particular, Jennifer has performed well in both commercial and art films, and her new film "My Week with Monroe" features the young British director Salvi Brown. Tuci, in the United States, has won unanimous praise from the industry, Salvi. Toozzi has become the most concerned director name in Hollywood this year, although before that, he only made an art documentary on the BBC, but the film "Monroe" made him rise like a comet, and even many authoritative film critics called him "the hope of a new generation of directors", "a rare artistic genius in a century". Will Jefferson, who came to the Venice Film Festival with him to take on the opening film, will it be able to conquer the discerning European critics? This newspaper will continue to pay attention. ”

For the average reader, this news in the corner of the page is nothing more than a little spice in the reading process, and they are not too disgusted by such reports, but for those who are interested, they see the influence of the Tuqi family. Jefferson used it as a disguise, but in essence, it was to create Salvi's reputation as a famous director, deliberately leading readers to attribute the success of "Monroe" to Salvi, of course, this is also a popular argument among the British, after all, Salvi is a British director, and Jennifer is an American actor. But even so, if the Tucci family did not have some strong connections, even if Salvi was likely to be the most beloved national idol of the British in the next few years, the Times would not have deigned to build momentum for him at such an early stage. - Even if they published such a report, the pen was still very obscure, and from beginning to end, they did not mention the scandal between Jennifer and Salvi, let alone the telephone hacking case that caused a lot of noise at the end of last year, which is a sign of the persistence of The Times.

In addition to the upcoming achievements of "Monroe" at the Venice Film Festival, they are more concerned about the interaction between Salvi and Jennifer, the two have not appeared in a single shot after the film is completed, and even during the filming of the film, they have only been photographed in some photos of being in the same shot, not talking and interacting, and the paparazzi will certainly not let go of the great opportunity of the opening ceremony of the film festival, if they are lucky enough, they can shoot enough material to use it to make up stories after looking at pictures and making up stories, without having to be far-fetched to put the two together every time like now.

"Jennifer is in Venice, with two handsome men by her side, and Salvi has no communication throughout the whole process, and the fire of love has subsided?" The Sun not only put Jennifer's photo on the front page, but also accompanied by a photo of Salvi frowning slightly, as if preoccupied. Vijri smiled and talked to the people around him, like a photo of a spring breeze, but that didn't mean the editor really gave up on pushing the Jennifer Salvi pairing, and the editor, who knows the preferences of British readers, answered the question in the headline in the text, writing suggestively, "Maybe to avoid the spread of scandal and let the intimate relationship last longer. Jefferson and Salvi. Tucci appeared on the red carpet at the same time, but the two did not talk and interact, and rarely even exchanged glances, which is rare for crew members who are happy to work together, and we already know that "Monroe" is a very good movie, it is obvious that Jennifer and Salvi cannot have a cold relationship, so this taboo seems to be more of a performance, what are Jennifer and Salvi trying to hide? That's an interesting question, isn't it? ”

Compared with the "Sun", which was hit hard by the paparazzi eavesdropping incident, and now the paparazzi (most people have forgotten his name and have forgotten all about the origin of this disappearance) has not been found by the police, the "Mirror" has gone further, they have fully inherited the speculation of "The Sun" about Jennifer and Salvi, and even wrote Cesare, who was with Jeanne, who was with Jeanne, as an uncompetitive Jennifer best friend. Vijri, his appearance only makes the essence of the smokescreen of everything more obvious, as we all know, this agent who is still unmarried is gay, he and Jennifer have also been friends for many years, only when Jennifer has an affair that needs to be clarified, he will appear next to her to shield him from the wind and rain......"

Whether this is the case or not, these tabloids don't care, and it's hard for the stars themselves to care, but without real evidence, these rumors can only exist in the tabloids, the focus is on what readers want to see, whether their favorite movie star and their favorite director have a story they like, or a vulgar and boring love triangle.

The Daily Telegraph, which is a big newspaper like The Times, has a more relaxed style, and their concerns are relatively more specific and careful, and it takes a day to delay reporting, "Monroe has won a good reputation in the United States, but as we all know, American filmmakers have always favored Jennifer. Jefferson, for them, they can't give the Oscar to no one, and before that, "Monroe" also held internal test screenings, and the critics and audiences were screened, what is the quality of this movie? The Venice Film Festival, which was held publicly for the first time, seemed to give us an answer. Locke's "The Wrestler", by Anne. Hathaway's "Rachel's Wedding" has been praised by critics before this, but compared to the rave reviews that "Monroe" received, they seem to be about to be overshadowed. However, it is remarkable that "Monroe" is not only based on Jennifer's upside-down beauty, in fact, critics are referring more to director Salvi. Toozi's name ......"

In the end, it is still the same position as "The Times" to promote Salvi, and what is more excessive than "The Times" is that they directly erase most of Jennifer's credit for this film, and shift the focus to Salvi's directing skills, as if the success of the movie is entirely because of Salvi's amazing directorial talent, Jenny is responsible for making a face, and there is no breakthrough and achievement in acting skills at all.

In Hollywood, reporting is a different story entirely, "Monroe's screening in Venice completely won over journalists, audiences and judges. Gordon praised the film to reporters, revealing that 'this is the most impressive masterpiece I've seen this year, and Jennifer's style has captivated the audience, there is no doubt about it. Her new masterpiece was born', and film journalists and film dealers from all over Europe were also excited, after the screening, the door of the theater was crowded with international film dealers who inquired about the price, and the staff of Big Dream were blocked at the door and could not leave, it seems that this year's Venice Film Festival will also be dominated by Hollywood films, of course, this is not at all surprising to the confident film critics in China, and there is even a saying that 'if Jennifer continues like this, then her third Oscar acting award, It's only a matter of time'......"

Salvi's name doesn't even appear in this report, and it is not explained whether the judges' words are true or not, and where they come from, but most people never get tired of watching the plot of this kind of film to win foreign film festivals, and who will really care about anything? As for the fact that the media tacitly did not mention Salvi and Jennifer on the same stage, but focused on Jennifer's third Oscar for acting, and began to instill this concept in potential film critic readers, no one can see it at all except for some professional PRs - and for these PRs, the media's cooperation is not surprising to them, Jennifer has always had a very strong behind-the-scenes team, public speech control and crisis public relations are textbook model operations, especially her own low-key life, Paparazzi photos are difficult to obtain, and they are rarely interviewed, some of the 'paparazzi photos' that are posed for photos at a glance, as well as interviews and covers, are regarded as the most valuable bargaining chips by the team, and they trade with major newspapers and magazines, earning a lot of favors, and the cooperation between the media and the team can be said to be a win-win situation most of the time - choose the silent media now, and if there is a follow-up to this scandal in the future, you will definitely be able to get the news in the first hand.

"We're definitely going to have to be in the spotlight together sooner or later," Jenny explained apologetically to Salvi at the breakfast table, "As Monroe gets bigger, so does the curiosity that makes it easier for the audience to get used to it early on, rather than waiting until things get out of hand." That way, this kind of scandal won't be a stumbling block for us during awards season. ”

The Oscars have a subtle attitude towards some messy scandals, but in general, they don't like the news that the director and the actor are in love, and it feels like this will make the professional skills of both of them diminished, especially for romance films, and even don't like to see the male and female lead actors spark, although they don't talk about it publicly, but the industry generally believes that this will reduce the chances of winning the award.

Of course, Jenny's scandal can effectively promote the box office of "Monroe", but since the Oscars can also receive similar results, then before the Oscars, of course, try to take some of the best of both worlds. These marketing methods, Big Dream is responsible for research, even Jenny has to obey the arrangement in some details and small things, Salvi is of course no exception, if it wasn't for Jenny to stop, Big Dream's marketing staff would have contacted Salvi a long time ago, and submitted what he wanted him to say in the interview.

Last time, I was invited to have dinner together, this year's Venice, Salvi and Jenny lived in the same suite on the same floor, but, no matter what kind of treatment, it seemed that it could not have any effect on him, he picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth, his tone was still so cautious and reserved, and the speed of speech was a little slow, so that every sentence seemed to be the result of careful consideration, "It is understandable that if there is anything that needs my cooperation in the publicity, I will also contribute as much as possible." ”

Jeanne's eyes collided with him, she pursed her lips, breaking eye contact first, and then glanced at Cesare, who was having breakfast at the long table near her: Cesare looked at it calmly, enjoying his breakfast to the fullest, Cesare had always been a little eager and greedy for food, he ate a little more than ordinary people in every bite, but it was not annoying, and when he was chewing, he seemed to be completely immersed in the joy of enjoying food, and was completely indifferent to everything outside, I don't bother to observe anything.

"I want you to do what you want." She turned back to Salvi, carefully picking her words, "This is ...... I don't know, maybe you can take it as my return gift. ”

During the promotion period, the crew members lived a busy life, not even much dignity, flying one plane after another, rushing to one program after another with different styles, putting down the shelf and being funny and self-deprecating on the talk show, accepting countless interviews with repeated content, like a propaganda machine, crying and laughing according to the button pressed by the marketing plan, and letting down their guard in every premiere and subsequent interview, Complete real interviews', although it's all about the movie, there is no doubt that not everyone can adapt to such a life. Jenny is not so high as to think that Salvi should not participate in any promotional activities, but now the facts are here, the quality and current momentum of "Monroe" will definitely get him a nomination for Best Director, but it is almost impossible to win the award, the Oscars are more cautious about awarding Best Director than Best Picture, you can get the award for the first nomination, you can also get the nomination for the first film, or even take the best picture, such as Rob and "Chicago", but the first directorial work will win the Best Director Award, At the moment, it's only Sam. Mendez and his "American Beauty", and before that, Sam was already an influential stage director, directing several critically acclaimed stage plays, including the film adaptation of his "Dumb Singer", which also attracted wide attention and love from critics in '98.

Generally speaking, the focus of the publicity of "Monroe" is not Salvi's Best Director Award, Jenny wants to impact in this film in addition to the best picture, as well as the best actress, these two awards are actually full of ambition, so she doesn't dare to think about the best director, of course, this also has the problem of PR funding and her own wishes, Salvi went back to the countryside to live in seclusion after the final cut of the movie, went out to travel, and seemed to have no interest in winning the award, if he was asked to promote it everywhere in order to cooperate with Jenny's award, Or even use handsome looks to draw the attention of the media...... Yes, it was a very effective strategy, and the marketing department of Big Dream tried to convince Jenny that this was the strategy she should take, but Jenny just didn't want to use it.

After the last screening, Jenny and Salvi had not had any conversations beyond the scope of work, of course, they did not have many opportunities to meet, and the two met after the final cut was completed, and that's all, Salvi seems to have been born with a knack for hiding his feelings, and like Jenny, he is also an excellent actor in this regard - until this moment, hearing Jenny's almost shy inform, his eyes have changed slightly - the angle of his brow is softer, Laugh lines appeared near the lips, as if they had been exchanged countless times before, the wordless conversation was exchanged in silence, and the feelings of the veins were brewed and warmed in the eye contact......

In this exchange of eyes, Jenny was almost attracted to leaning forward, but no one spoke, and eventually, Salvi broke the brief but seemingly magical moment with a light cough, "Well, I should be grateful to you for that." ”

He said calmly, it seems that the brief moment of truth has come to an end, and Salvi is indeed quite free to talk about the awards, "Admittedly, I know that it is my responsibility to cooperate with the producer to promote the film, and if you ask for it, I should not refuse, but I do have to admit that for me, the film is over the moment the final cut is born, and I feel that what matters is whether we create a masterpiece, not how many awards it will win - although this comparison is a bit overwhelming. But really, at this point you can argue that Woody and I. Allen's attitude towards awards is similar. ”

Compared with the previous exchanges between the two, Salvi is abnormally talkative at this time, you know, in addition to topics related to movies, he can be considered a taciturn kind of person. Jeanne rolled her eyes and glanced at Cesare unobtrusively, trying to see if he had read the reason for Salvedo's words, while Cesare grabbed his napkin, wiped his mouth, took another sip of water, and intervened in the conversation with a perfect smirk, showing that he knew the situation.

"I don't think you have to worry about my opinion, Sal," he said in an affectionate manner—the kind of business intimacy—"though I suspect that in your eyes all the agents are guilty of the original sin, and that the studio owners deserve hell for the sake of the film's box office and awards—and that may be true, but, fortunately, I've always believed that gifted people deserve privileges, so you don't have to rush to take the blame for the absence of publicity. It doesn't cause any unpleasantness between me and Jennifer - and certainly doesn't make me resentful of you, though I suspect you don't care. However, I would take the liberty of correcting you to correct one of your perceptions: it is the responsibility of marketing to promote the film, the actors and directors only need to make a good movie, and the studio can take care of everything after that - I don't know if other studios think so, but at Big Dream, this has always been our established policy. ”

Salvi's eyes changed a little when he looked at Cesare, of course, they had exchanged pleasantries many times before, and Salvi's politeness had made him look at the speaker forever, but this time, it was as if he had really 'seen' Cesare, as if the existence of the other party had made sense to him for the first time - he looked at Cesare for a few moments, and then at Jeanne.

For some reason, he suddenly showed a slightly childish, even a somewhat innocent happy smile, at this moment, the pleasure seemed to break through the barriers brought by gentlemanly politeness, and made him smile brightly, he smiled, untied his napkin, stood up and nodded to Jeanne and Cesare-

"Well, until the next meeting." He said, with a smile still on his face, and he glanced at Jenny gently, put one hand over his chest, bowed gently to the two men on the other side of the long table, and turned and walked out of the room.

The waiter, who had been waiting on the sidelines, closed the door and gave Jeanne a gesture, Cesare waved at him, and he recklessly withdrew from the dining room. Jenny didn't move her knife or fork, she didn't mean to get up, she stared at the glass of milk in front of her, and after a moment she suddenly spoke.

"Do you think your strategy will work?" She asked, "--Of course, I don't need to say that you know it, he should have seen it." ”

She didn't communicate with Cesare beforehand, because she didn't know how Salvi would react to the reports, and whether she would really reject publicity or not value the awards, which was a sudden decision she made when she met Salvi - she always seemed to be with Salvi, dominated by emotion, forgetting what it meant to 'think twice'. On the contrary, Salvi was more thoughtful, taking into account the mood of Cesare, a partner and the upper echelon of the company, saying that he was already quite pessimistic about publicity and awards - he did not expect Cesare to seize this opportunity to show favor to Salvi, this intention Jeanne of course also understood, and there was no reason to object: a genius like Salvi who could direct "Monroe" for the first time, any film company would want to establish a long-term and pleasant cooperation with him, and make concessions in publicity, if it can be exchanged for Salvi's favor, This sacrifice is insignificant, and if anyone angers Salvi for it, he is a fool - of course, not missing any opportunity to beat a snake with a stick or to grab oil in a stone, and to sell a favor countless times, which is typical of Cesare's style.

"I think there's a good chance he's going to choose us," Cesare said, and he didn't have any intention of leaving, "why not, Da Meng has money, connections, a willingness to cooperate, a suitable client, and you—"

He took a sip of water and glanced at Jenny, "Speaking of which, how are you going to handle your relationship with him?" ”

Jenny didn't think that her and Salvi's undercurrents would hide from Cesare, and she suspected that anyone who had seen the film would feel it, but it was still quite rare for Cesare - at the beginning of their relationship, they did agree that their love life was part of the brokerage contract, but after her engagement with Josh ended and she began dating Chris, Cesare began to avoid talking to her about her love life, preferring to leave it to herself.

"Strange," she said, replacing her answer with a question curiously, "you don't usually care about such things, do you?" What makes my answer important, are you going to arrange a second marriage for me? You're suggesting we don't expose it before the Oscars - if there really is any relationship between me and him? ”

Cesare gave her a strange look and set the napkin aside, he looked - Jeanne almost thought he was delusional, but he did look a little wandering, and it was extremely rare that Cesare seemed to be bothered by a question that made it difficult to make a final decision.

"Your answer will indeed be related to one of my decisions." He said carefully, apparently still thinking as he spoke, "However, I would like to hear your answer before I tell you the whole story." ”

For a moment, Jenny almost had a terrible guess - her mind was just brushing the edge of the thought, and her heart was immediately hanging in her throat, but fortunately it was only for a moment that her reason took over: it was impossible, it needed no reason, it was simply impossible

"Okay." She shrugged, hoping that her horror was well enough to be hidden enough that it didn't reveal it for Cesare to peek into her inner workings (otherwise he would have laughed at her, she was sure), "I...... I'm not going to make sure of anything with him, if that's what you're trying to ask, of course, you can see, he's waiting for me to change my mind, but ......"

She frowned, looking for the right words - this part of her, she still could not confess to Cesare: although she had begun to gradually accept the decision not to try to return, it did not mean that she could immediately pursue a stable and sincere love with someone else, just like a landlubber accustomed to standing on the shore, it is impossible to jump into the cold deep water at once, there must be a process of wading and slowly adapting. Besides, the decision to stay is not entirely synonymous with the decision to develop a romantic relationship, which is significantly more complicated. "At least I don't think we'll have anything to do with it for a long time to come, because he's obviously not the kind of guy who is hot - you can tell that Salvi is a very authentic English gentleman, and as long as I don't give a signal, we're not going to make any progress. And I'm ...... I don't know, and I don't think I'm going to send a signal, at least not these days. ”

"Ok......" Cesare said, and it was easy to tell that he was immediately lost in his busy thinking after receiving the answer.

Jenny's curiosity was at its peak, and she knocked on the table dissatisfied, "Cesare, if you want to whet my appetite again—"

"I do have one more important thing to tell you," Cesare finally came to his senses, and he glanced at Jeanne, and said slowly, "this matter is indeed very important......

As the tone lengthened, he seemed to be distracted again, and Jeanne almost completely collapsed, clenching her fists and glaring at Cesare, expressing her displeasure without a word—and Cesare laughed dumbly at her movements when she came back to her senses.

"Long story short," he said, finally sitting up straight, as if he had finished his musings, and entered the real state of conversation, and his tone became brighter. "Early this morning, I received a call from the United States - Bob told me that Ron has reached a preliminary agreement with him, Disney will buy Marvel at a price of no more than $5 billion, not less than $3 billion, the framework agreement has been preliminarily negotiated, maybe by this time next year, the acquisition agreement will officially take effect, and Marvel will officially become a member of Disney."

"Ah-" exclaimed Jeanne, but the joy that came with the good news was soon diluted by the doubts—her confusion made her feel like a cloud: it was a good thing, of course, but Cesare didn't seem to have to make a big deal of mental construction just to tell her this, right?

"And I want to ask you a question." Cesare said he didn't seem to care about Jenny's confusion, but remained obsessed with getting the information he wanted, "How do you feel to know that Bob called me first – not you, one of the main players in the negotiations?" ”

If Jenny had been a little ethereal just now, now she is completely lost: whatthe*? Did Cesare ingest any drugs unintentionally? What the hell is he trying to do? ――12284785863664171――>
