"It's probably going to be the liveliest premiere of the year," Claudia said with a smile as she helped Jenny put on a conservative and low-key 'lessismore' black gown. Pete is coming, wow, tomorrow's news is sure to be capitalized, isn't it? ”

"yes, we didn't expect so many people to show up." Jenny opened the showcase of Valentino's sponsored jewelry - her cooperation with Valentino has been quite pleasant, Jenny is also the ideal customer of Valentino's heart, the dress she borrowed is always clean when returned, the jewelry depreciation is low, and the degree of cooperation is high, plus the career is climbing to a peak, the attention has been high, so Valentino is now using a cooperation model with her is to place some more basic jewelry in Jenny's house every season, which is convenient for her daily travel and matching. Some of the prices here are not high enough and do not need to be returned. Of course, when Jenny is in some big events, Valentino will also borrow a grand set of jewelry, then it is still escorted, and after wearing it directly back to the vault, sometimes if Julian thinks that Valentino's jewelry is not properly matched, he makes a phone call, whether it is Tiffany or Van Cleef & Arpels, they are happy to lend the key jewelry of the season, and some jewelers directly come to the door to talk about sponsorship.

However, it's just the premiere of "Unlucky Eros", which is not a big occasion for Jenny as a producer, and she also wants to give up the limelight to Rachel. McAdams, so both the dress and the jewelry are low-key and conservative, but it only maintains Jennifer. Jefferson's private clothes have always been low-key and elegant, and he did not take the eye-catching route of girlpower. Jenny didn't even invite Julian, but gave Claudia the opportunity to take care of the full makeup for the high-profile occasion - and because of this, Claudia was more attentive than Jenny, picking and choosing between the jewelry cabinets and finally choosing only a pair of pearl earrings for Jenny.

"It's enough for us to play a little trick on the hair accessories." She said with determination, turned around and opened the shoe closet, picking out the matching heels for Jenny.

"We've got fifteen minutes left," Christopher knocked on the locker room door, leaning against the door and whistling, "Hey, geous, can I get your phone number?" ”

"Thank you, you're shining today." Jenny smiled and said, "Actually, I think you're probably more eye-catching than I am." ”

Indeed, Chris is in extraordinary style today, wearing a well-fitting dark blue suit, black hair combed back of his head, a rare oily head, coupled with his smiling expression and almost sparkling mental state, Jenny has no doubt that he will snatch another Chris - the male lead Chris. Pyne's limelight, of course, Pyne is also a very charming young man, but he and Chris are still a little too young and young, at least in the past few years.

"What can I say?" Chris made a pompous bowing motion, "The evidence is conclusive, and there is no room for quibbling." ”

"Someone's proud today." Claudia spitted, and she straightened up and put another layer of powder on Jenny's face, "Try these shoes - I think I know why." ”

"Oh? What's with? Mary walked in through the door, texting as she spoke, "There are already guests arriving at the scene, we better hurry up." ”

"Oh, don't you read the newspaper, Mary?" Claudia rolled her eyes exaggeratedly, "First public appearance?" Is this a hint for you? ”

"Oh, yes." Mary laughed too, and she teasingly bumped Chris, "It's just a premiere, it's not your wedding, you don't need to be so excited, Chris." ”

Although Chris is not without the temper of a big-name star, he rarely puts on a stand with the staff around him, he jumped back and raised his voice, "Don't crumple my suit, Biatch, you can't afford it." ”

Both Mary and Claudia burst out laughing, and Claudia guessed, "Is this a parody of Timgunn?" ”

"No, Julian." Chris said, "The last time he yelled at Jack - Jack almost ruined my Armani. ”

"Now that you've solved the mystery—" Mary laughed breathlessly, "I really feel like it—haha, I can almost imagine Julian's look on his face when he said this—"

The dressing room was filled with laughter, perhaps inspired by the "Michael. The impact of the Clayton project is very high, Mary and Claudia are in high mood, and there is no need to say more about Chris, Jenny looks at him through the mirror, and can't help but smile on her lips: Chris is looking forward to this premiere, after all, doing so is tantamount to naturally turning their relationship into light.

Since the intimidation incident a few months ago, the media has not stopped speculating about their relationship, and of course, the public is also curious. It's a pity that due to the unique living conditions of Chris's mansion, the paparazzi have not taken photos of the two appearing together. In the days before she went to film "Michael", Jenny rarely went out in order to avoid the annoying media, and she couldn't go out on a date with Chris, plus Judy was told by the police to refuse to admit to the media that the two were dating, so as to avoid creating another big news and stimulating Stalker, so although her relationship with Chris is stable and improving, for the public, the relationship between the two of them has always been foggy, and there is no positive answer.

Especially last month, she went to shoot "Michael. Clayton", Chris flew to London to continue some post-production work, and was photographed having dinner with Josh and having a good conversation, so what is the relationship between him and Jenny is even more reverie: it is not unheard of to continue to be friends after a breakup, but there are very few good brothers like Chris and Josh. The reason why the premiere of "Unlucky Eros" has received great media attention is also because Jenny and Chris are both in Los Angeles, and whether they attend the premiere together is actually equivalent to marking their relationship development status. -- On the contrary, Daniel, who is very concerned by insiders. After all, even in Hollywood, the circulation of a lot of news has a clear hierarchy and a state of circle, not every reporter knows that Daniel was completely handled by Jennifer and her team, and the reporters who really know this also understand that some news is best not to be reported randomly before communicating with the parties, for example, how can you be sure that reporting this news at length will not anger George. What about Clooney?

But one thing is for sure, the star-studded at today's premiere must have shocked some people, and when Claudia finally picked out a pair of pearlescent heels to match her eyeshadow, and Jenny sat down for her to help put on her shoes, Mary couldn't even wait for this little time, and hurried to the premiere venue: there were too many stars who arrived early, and the photographers were busy, and the PR team in charge of the whole premiere was a little unprepared, including Judy, The staff related to the entire Big Dream team rushed to the scene and started to do it.

“done！” Claudia rubbed her hands, took a step back with joy, and looked at Jenny harshly again, she sighed contentedly and turned to Chris for advice, "Is your girlfriend beautiful today, Chris?" ”

"From a fashion point of view, I don't know." Chris acted again, looking at Jenny with unnecessary affection, and said hoarsely, "In terms of the aesthetics of a straight man, she is very beautiful today." ”

"I don't know if I'm going to be happy or unhappy." Claudia sighed nervously. Jenny smiled and gave Chris a roll of her eyes, "Don't act - and, Claudia, I'm happy with today's outfit, don't worry, it's not going to get much praise, but it's not going to be ridiculed." ”

After reassuring Claudia, she and Chris walked to the limousine, and Chris restrained his smugness - he watched Jenny's expression all the way.

"You don't seem to be in the mood for a long time."

The team of bodyguards waited near the gate, their limousine through tight security, as did the premiere venue - this was Chris's insistence, he thought Jenny should have no fewer than four bodyguards around when attending public events, especially those with fans in person, and when the car started, he commented, his interest was noticeably low, "Is there anything that upsets you?" ”

"You're really observant." Jenny said slightly sarcastically, then sighed, "Isn't that obvious? I'm a little nervous, you know, the premiere is like a switch, and before that, you tell yourself not to be anxious about the box office, and you keep saying to yourself, 'It's not time to worry about this, get what you're doing first' -- and then, boom, the premiere starts, and you find yourself with nothing to do but worry about the box office. ”

Chris took her hand and patted her in relief, acknowledging his mistake, "Of course I should have thought of this earlier—but you act like you're more nervous than your own movie is out." ”

"If I had me in this movie, I wouldn't have been too worried." Jenny said honestly, and she sighed, "This movie is Big Dream's first release, you know, I'm just scared it's going to mess up." Anyway, I was part of the whole process of making the release decisions - and that's not something I'm very good at. ”

“tellmeaboutit。” Chris grunted, "It's like I'm not on the sidelines while you're digging into those release cases...... But you'd better not think like that, Jane, you know it's putting pressure on yourself, and what you need at this time is some more soothing thoughts: Big Dream's investment in this movie is only 10 million, and you are responsible for the distribution, plus the distribution commission, anyway, the possibility of Big Dream losing money is very low, the difference is just the speed of return on investment. There's nothing you can't afford, can you? It's better to miss an investment of 10 million than to miss an investment of 100 million. ”

Jenny also admits that Chris has a point, and she has a hard time explaining why she is not as worried about the 100 million project as she is about the 100 million project. She smiled reluctantly, "Let's not talk about this - this should be the kind of problem that doesn't help talking about it, guess how many people have gathered at the scene now?" ”

"I guess a lot." Chris changed the subject along Jenny's note, "At least three friends have texted me and asked where I am. ”

Although Jenny knows that she should be excited about their first appearance now, rather than worrying about the box office of "Unlucky Eros", she does care a lot about this movie, and Chris may not understand, but this movie means extraordinary to her - it can prove whether Big Dream has the ability to make a commercial film on its own, in other words, without Jenny's prophetic golden finger, whether Big Dream can continue to do it.

Now the time has entered the end of 2006, and it is 7 years before Goldfinger fails, of course, Jenny has now caught up with "Avatar", bought "Twilight", and is waiting for "The Hunger Games", and there are several projects that are being targeted, in the foreseeable 7 years, Big Dreams will make a lot of money, and it is not a dream to become a Hollywood upstart - of course, in order not to smash these projects, they also have to work hard - however, it is determined whether a company can operate, In addition to existing good projects, there is also a need for a vision to continuously develop new ones, as well as the ability to make a mediocre project profitable. In Cesare's words, 'You can't expect the big money in the market to come to your company every year, but you want to make sure that the company is profitable from smooth projects.' ’

"Unlucky Eros" is such a very mediocre commercial film, it has nothing to do with Jenny's golden finger, the investment is not big, the cast is not big, the director is not big, and the script is relatively average, Jenny watched the finished film, not bad, but it is not exciting, it is a film above and below the average, and it is very important whether Big Dream can make profits from such a film, after all, if your company can only count on business miracles to make money, then there must be something wrong. Only by ensuring that this kind of smooth project can make enough profits, Dameng can make it possible to grow bigger step by step, rather than a tool to draw money before the expiration of the golden finger. - Actually, money is not the first factor in terms of Hollywood's status, and many of the movie stars are very rich, but you can't say that their status in Hollywood is higher than that of Jenny now. How strong is the driving force of Big Dream, how much profit can a project be realized, whether it can make an ordinary project reborn, whether it can make a film that will lose money become a reluctant profit, and whether it can pull up the Olympic award crew and make a profitable and award-winning literary film......

These elements are the same as 'whether Big Dream can always dig for treasure', they are all important factors that determine the status of Big Dream in the industry, and even to some extent, it is much more important than the treasure digging ability because of the gold finger, and of course it is much more difficult to obtain, at least Jenny herself got the gold finger of the treasure just to sleep, and she has not yet got a team with planning and execution. This kind of team is not something that can be hired with money - if money can solve this kind of problem, there will be no bankrupt enterprises and bankrupt rich people in this world, in fact, how to screen out the talents who can really do things among the so-called elites who have a beautiful resume, in fact, I am a boastful talk about the industry's cutting-edge concepts, management jargon, and salary fraud, and create a fair and efficient competition mechanism within the enterprise to retain these talents, which is the essence of a company.

In order to build such a mechanism, the requirements for the CEO of the company are also quite high, he must be a well-versed and professional generalist in management - although it is common practice in large companies to separate shareholders and management, no one will pretend to hire strangers to manage their efforts and divest themselves of influence in the initial stage of the company. So this candidate must be selected from the shareholders' ranks, and for now, Jeanne is far from qualified, and even if she does, she will not have enough time, she can only count on Cesare to do this part of the work and participate as much as she can. "Unlucky Eros" is actually a big dream from scratch, starting from the selection of talents, step by step to establish its own distribution team, the company's internal competition mechanism...... In this process of gradual expansion, it can be said that the success of this project not only represents the quality of the film itself, but also a benchmark to test the company's ability, only after the successful distribution of "Unlucky Eros", the cash flow from the rights transaction and merchandising, the accounts are paid and the profits are paid - only after these processes can Big Dream be called a complete film company, not Jennifer. Jefferson's leather bag company has the ability to expand, to be recognized by the market, and to be qualified to really enter the game and become a healthy small film company......

So, yes, Jenny is very nervous about the results of this movie, and she also hopes that "Unlucky Eros" will do well, and under this multiple psychological pressure, she really didn't think much about her first appearance with Chris, which made her regret it after sitting in the car - Chris was obviously excited about her first appearance, and her performance was quite cold compared to it, and it could even be said that she was not a good girlfriend.

"By the way," she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to mention it to Chris, "did Chesa tell you, Judy sent Leo an invitation, and he promised to come." ”

Ever since she asked Lewis to come out of the mountains, another wave of 'Meet Jennifer. The tide of Jefferson's was surging, and many of the new acquaintances and acquaintances who had met and became familiar after the Olympics -- Jenny could hardly be called friends -- wanted to 'get together' with Jenny.

In such a situation, celebrities generally choose to have a party to solve it together, so as not to have a bad allocation of time, and since there is a premiere and afterparty soon, Jenny will certainly not let go of this opportunity to build momentum by the way, so "Unlucky Eros" has a star-studded premiere with treatment specifications far beyond the actual level of the project, and in such an event with a wide range of invitations, it seems very targeted to miss Leonardo, but Jenny didn't expect Leo to really show his face - This also means that the 'king without the king' situation that has been going on between him and Chris for a while will be broken at this party.

"Well, he told me." Chris said casually, and when he saw Jenny's indescribable expression, he laughed instead, "What are you worried about?" Afraid we'll get into a fight at a party? ”

"Nope." "I was just thinking that you had a bad relationship that you didn't have to belong, and maybe you could take this opportunity to reconcile - but just think about it, you don't need to feel pressured." ”

Chris laughed, "Why am I stressed?" I don't hate him, in fact, I'm ready to resume friendship with him whenever Leo doesn't mind. ”

"Really?" Jenny glanced at him, "That doesn't sound like it." ”

"My heart is more real than gold." Chris said, laughing evilly, "If you don't believe me, welcome to verify." ”

"Forget it, I don't want to be resented by Claudia." Jenny gestured to Birkris neck, "Besides, I don't wear a bow tie." ”

She and Chris smiled at each other, and there was a pleasant silence in the car.

After a moment, Chris broke the silence.

"You know, speaking of Leo - I'm surprised you'd take Rob's line to reach Daniel," he grabbed Jenny's hand and stroked it up and down absentmindedly, "I thought you'd go along Leo's line." ”

"Really?" Jenny replied nonchalantly, browsing the rapidly receding scenery outside the window.

"Yes," Chris affirmed, "I know Cesa, and if I were him, I would have chosen Leo - Leo was less risky, and choosing Rob was a gamble." ”

"It sounds so." Jenny said. "What do you want to say, Chris?"

"I want to make it clear, did you turn down the Chesa's offer?" Chris said, his voice smiling, "If I could be a little more confident, I'd like to ask if you turned down Chesa's offer - for me." ”

"You've made this a good thing." Jenny frowned, still not giving a positive answer. "Should I say you're too imaginative, Chris?"

Christopher laughed, "Ah, that sounds like you're so unkind, Jennifer. ”

He clenched Jenny's hand tightly, and said cheerfully, "--But don't worry, I won't believe you, I know why you made this choice." ”

"Oh?" Jenny raised an eyebrow, "You know? ”

"Yes, I know." Chris nodded confidently, but the next second he couldn't help but laugh at the fact that the venue had dismantled his own stage, "-well, I've actually asked Chesa." ”

"What did he say?"

"Chesa told me to get out of the way, 'Don't force me to be involved in your love tricks,'" Chris was quoted as saying, "so I guessed right—huh?" Am I guessing right? Precious? ”

Jenny laughed, "If you're so confident, why do you ask?" ”

"Because I'm happy," said Chris, as he reached out (careful not to spoil Jenny's makeup) and took her into his arms, "but at the same time a little angry: why hide it from me? Jane, you know this will please me. ”

"So maybe I just don't want to please you?" Jenny stubbornly disagrees with him, and Chris just laughs and increases the intensity of the hug.

"You know, I've had a lot of female companions—girlfriends, whatever they call them." "But you're the only girl who will try to protect me—and I have to admit, it feels good to be protected." ”

"You're going to mess with my hairstyle." Jenny warned, but cooperatively relaxed in Chris's arms, "I'll give you another half minute to hug, nokiss-hmm-"

They arrived a few minutes later than expected, not because of bad traffic in Los Angeles or because the estimates of professional security weren't accurate - there was a surprise stop where Claudia was called in the car, but fortunately, Jennifer and Christopher were able to keep people waiting for a few minutes.

#

With the screams of fans and the scramble of reporters for their seats, at the main entrance of the Hollywood Kodak Theater, another extremely eye-catching limousine stopped. Jefferson and her male companion Christopher. Hanks, this year's new Oscar-winning actress, stepped out of the car, wearing matching dark-toned gowns, waving to reporters and fans, and of course attracting the highest decibel screams tonight, as well as a crazy flash bombardment and barrage of questions from media reporters.

"Jennifer! Are you in a relationship with Christopher? ”

"Are you secretly engaged, Chris!"

No one asks about the prospects of the new film, and the attention to the relationship between these two stars has completely overwhelmed "Unlucky Eros", however, with the frequent appearance of big stars tonight, and the gossip news destined to make headlines, Da Meng has not spent a penny, and has received a better publicity effect than a big advertisement, at least the people who pay the most attention to gossip will not be unfamiliar with the name "Unlucky Eros". Jenny walked through the crowd with a proper smile on her face, taking a brief photo in front of the photo wall.

Neither she nor Chris answered the question of whether they were dating, but the two of them kept their fingers together and did not separate.

"Jennifer!"

"Hi, Jenny."

"Miss Jefferson—"

"Jenny, come here—"

Before the movie premiere officially began, the cinema provided a large venue for guests to socialize and enjoy refreshments before the movie was released, starting from the moment Jenny and Chris walked into the ballroom. The sound of the greeting almost drowned her out, and Chris, who had just won the best award, seemed to be completely forgotten, and Jenny was undoubtedly the central protagonist of the premiere - she was almost overwhelmed with greetings from these industry acquaintances, and was soon supported by Sidney, who personally came forward to support her. Pollack took the lead in pulling aside with his seniority.

"Let me introduce you to a good friend." Sidney took her to an old gentleman, "Arthur. Clark, the head snake of the West End of London - Arthur, this is Jennifer. Jefferson, blahblahblah, let's skip that, Jenny, after all, there are already a lot of people who want to take you away, and get straight to the point - you're going to shoot Monroe, you're going to shoot Monroe's history of filming in the UK, so Arthur is the one you're looking for, and it just so happens that he's also interested and wants to talk to you about your project—"

The old gentleman waved his hand and said a little jokingly, "Of course, I'm sure there are more than 90% of the people in this room, and now I want to talk to you about this project......"

Jenny looked around the room, and she saw a lot of enthusiastic faces smiling at her, and the anticipation on them was even surprising - not even in the time she had been in the movie. This feeling of being noticed by countless people, by countless bigwigs in the industry, and admired by the elites in the industry, made her a little dizzy, and even a little surprised: she knew that she had done a difficult thing, but before she finished it, even before she arrived at the banquet hall in person, she didn't know that it was so difficult, and she didn't know how legendary and difficult it was.

"OK," she said, reluctantly reminding herself not to get carried away: there might be something else to all this. "Arthur, it's a pleasure to meet you."

With her professional smile stacked, Jenny said sincerely, "We should find a time to sit down and talk, I'm sure you'll make this project a lot smoother—"

Glancing at the bustling banquet hall again, Jenny realized that she was right: maybe the production process of "My Week with Monroe" would really be much smoother than she thought.
