Chapter 627: Tom Cruise's Remorse

At the reception after the awards ceremony, Chen Ping'an, the biggest winner of this year's Oscars, naturally became the focus of the reception.

Interviews with reporters, accosting peers, and some actors pulling relationships, just because of these two Oscars, Chen Ping'an made two movies that won the best picture one after another, won two actors with one hand, and he also won the best director trophy this year!

Some large production companies began to pay attention to him and asked him to direct movies for themselves, but Chen Ping'an politely refused. He is the big boss of Dark Horse International, what reason does he have to help other companies make movies?

Anthony Hopkins and Lin Qingxia have also received the attention of many film companies.

You are the new actor, Anthony needless to say; Although Lin Qingxia was only nominated, her performance in the movie was recognized by the circle. In addition, she is an Oriental and has a high popularity in Asia, Hollywood pays attention to internationalization and has begun to pay attention to the Asian market, Lin Qingxia is a good candidate.

In addition, her current value is low.

Zhong Chuhong has been in Hollywood for many years, and her development is not bad. But among actresses of the same level, her salary is always lower than that of European and American actresses. No way, that's the Hollywood rule.

Even if it is Chen Ping'an, if he agrees to Paramount or Warner Bros. and others to direct movies for them, his salary will be the lowest among the Oscars for Best Director in the past ten years.

He simply has his own dark horse international =, no need to look at other people's eyes.

The reception was very pleasant, and Chen Ping'an quickly regained his true colors, found a corner to sit down, and silently tasted red wine.

Zhong Chuhong wanted to accompany him, but he sent him away. He knew very well that Zhong Chuhong was different from himself. So let Zhong Chuhong use this opportunity to accumulate contacts, including Lin Qingxia.

The reception is coming to an end. Tom Cruise walked over alone with a wine glass: "Hello, Chen. ”

"Hi. Tom. ”

"How can you sit here alone and drink? You're the biggest winner tonight! ”

"Every year at this time, the biggest winners are born. We have an old saying in the East, called Feng Shui in turn. I just don't want to get carried away by the excitement. ”

Tom Cruise pondered for a moment, presumably understanding the phrase "feng shui takes turns". "A very philosophical sentence, you are really a magical Oriental."

"Can I understand that you're complimenting me?"

"Of course."

"Thank you."

Chen Ping'an raised a glass to thank him, and Tom Cruise also raised a glass to accompany him to take a sip: "Chen, I think it is necessary for me to apologize to you for what happened last time." ”

"What happened last time?" Seeing that Tom Cruise was slightly embarrassed, Chen Ping'an laughed, "Oh." That's it! It's been so long, there's no need to always worry about it. Since I started making movies in '84, there have been many actors over the years who have missed the opportunity to work together for one reason or another, and it's normal. ”

"But they must all regret it, right?"

Now Chen Ping'an understood what Tom Cruise meant. Just like Zhong Chuhong said before the award ceremony began, Tom Cruise wants to cooperate with him!

Tom Cruise is already a big star in the United States. debuted in 81, and two years later with the table xiàn in "The Outsider", he was called the "milky pie". It is liked by many young audiences. He was nominated for Best Actor in a Comedy/Music category at the 41st Golden Globe Awards for "Good Boy is Crazy".

Three years later, he starred in "Top Gun", a handsome and cool hero who fascinated thousands of boys and girls. Known as a sexy idol star.

Subsequently, he took on a number of films, and now he has become a well-deserved star, but he has never been crowned emperor at the Oscars. It's hard to even nominate people.

There are not many American actors who don't want to win an Oscar, and the successful Tom Cruise lacks an Oscar trophy. Even if it's a nomination. With nominations, you can go one step closer to winning the award.

Hollywood is much bigger than Hong Kong, both in terms of the number of films made each year and the talent of film. are far more than Hong Kong. Therefore, the competition for the Oscars every year is extremely fierce. Among the big stars who are famous and widely liked by fans, many of them failed to win the Oscar.

At last year's Oscars, Dustin Hoffman was crowned emperor for the second time for his starring role in "Rain Man", and another starring newcomer, Brad Pitt, was also nominated, which greatly stimulated Tom Cruise.

The reporters were also afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and the news that he had rejected Chen Ping'an's invitation and rejected the crew of "Rain Man" was made public. The most hateful also swore that if he was willing to agree to Chen Ping'an and play another starring role in "Rain Man", then it would be difficult to say who would win last year's Oscar.

Both he and Dustin Hoffman have a chance.

While these reports upset Tom Cruise, he also had to admit that what the damn reporters said wasn't unreasonable. How many years has Brad Pitt debuted? actually won the nomination for Best Actor for "Rain Man", if he is replaced, of course he will have a chance to impact the actor!

On this year's Oscar nomination list, Chen Ping'an's "The Silence of the Lambs" once again amazed the audience, and he convincingly won the Best Actor crown from Anthony Hopkins, a veteran actor he invited from the United Kingdom, and "The Silence of the Lambs" also won many heavyweight awards, which made Tom Cruise unable to help but be moved.

regretted, he regretted it, regretted that he shouldn't have despised Chen Ping'an at the beginning, because his identity as an Oriental underestimated him and rejected the script of "Rain Man". If he can, he wants to repair the relationship with Chen Ping'an and become the protagonist in Chen Ping'an's new film. With the help of the shareholder style of "Made by Chen Ping'an", it will impact the Oscars.

Of course, with his fame and identity, he must not be able to say it so bluntly, and he has clearly expressed his meaning here. He believes that Chen Ping'an will be able to understand.

Chen Ping'an smiled: "Tom, I also brought a script this time and handed it over to my most trusted director Wu Yusen, who is the director who filmed "That Killer Is Not Too Cold". In fact, I really want to invite you to star, but I'm afraid that your schedule will be wrong. I was thinking of asking Ah Hong to contact you in two days and ask about your schedule. ”

These words gave Tom Cruise face, he thought Chen Ping'an was very cute and a very good person. It is completely different from the newspaper comments that smear him as arrogant and arrogant.

It's just that......

"Wu Yusen? I've seen "That Killer Is Not Too Cold", and it also starred in an Oriental. The protagonist seems to be called Zhou, Zhou or something. ”

"It's Zhou Runfa."

"Oh. That's right, Zhou Runfa. Sorry, you Oriental names are very tongue-in-cheek. He acted very well, the movie was very exciting, and I also liked Wu's violent aesthetics very much. Aren't you going to start a new play this year? ”

"I had an idea, but it's a women's movie, and there's no role for you...... Let's put it this way, I don't have a male lead in this movie. ”

"That's a shame."

"Aren't you going to think about that Wu movie? That's a script I wrote, and I can't guarantee that I'll win an award. But with you joining the starring role, I believe it will become a classic. ”

Tom Cruise was a little tempted.

Anthony Hopkins' acceptance speech tonight, as well as Chen Ping'an's sentence "will be published together", let many people have a deeper understanding of Chen Ping'an - self-confidence, this Oriental has a strong self-confidence, and success also comes from self-confidence.

"Can I ask what type of movie it is?"

"Espionage. The name is "Mission Impossible". ”

After the 61st Academy Awards, Chen Ping'an is also ready to return to Hong Kong. Prior to this, as the most beautiful person in this year's Oscars, it was naturally indispensable to accept an exclusive interview with the media. As well as attending certain events that cannot be refused, while promoting and endorsing your own company.

Anne Head was very happy. The more successful Chen Ping'an is, the more conducive to the development of the company. And Chen Ping'an brought two more scripts this time, although now Chen Ping'an's script is going to collect money. But the price of the script is almost negligible compared to the high box office that is likely to be achieved.

"Mission Impossible" and "Crazy Flowers of the End", these two scripts Annie Heard was overjoyed after reading them. With many years of experience and a keen sense of smell. and Chen Ping'an's word-of-mouth, she concluded that these two movies will definitely be a big hit!

But. There were a couple of issues that she needed to discuss.

"Are you sure, this "Mission Impossible" will be handed over to Wu. And not you directed it yourself? ”

"Believe Wu, isn't "This Killer Not Too Cold" quite successful?"

"It's not that I don't believe him, and I also admit that he is a good director, but the budget of the script "Mission Impossible" is obviously much higher than that of "This Killer is Not Too Cold", and I am worried that Wu is inexperienced and can't control such a big scene."

"He could. As long as you give him enough trust, he will give you a miracle back. Also, I've got Tom Cruise in the starring role, so I think you'll be able to rest assured now, right? ”

"Tom Cruise? He agreed? ”

"Not yet, he needs to read the script before he can decide, but I'm confident that he will definitely agree."

I have it too!

Anne Heard added in her heart, and nodded after a moment of silence: "Okay." If Wu has problems during filming and is not qualified to be the director of this play, I will temporarily change the director. ”

"No problem."

The script of "Mission Impossible" was put aside, and Anne Heard picked up "Crazy Flower of the End" again: "Are you sure you want Zhong to play one of the two heroines?" ”

"What's the problem?"

"Chen, this book of yours is one of the few feminist road adventure movies, and it will be very representative in some ways. As a woman, I love this book, but I need to remind you that private feelings and work should be separated, otherwise it will affect your mind. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"I knew about the relationship between you and Zhong when I was filming "Ghost Love"."

"So what?" Chen Ping'an smiled, "Do you think that because of Ah Hong's relationship with me, I asked her to star, right?" ”

"Isn't it?"

"Of course not! Which form do you think is more interesting for two white people or a black man and a white man on a road adventure, or a white man and an Oriental partner? Update? ”

Anne Hurd thought about it for a long time this time, and threw out a question that had nothing to do with the two scripts: "Chen, you really don't plan to put all your energy into the United States?" (To be continued......) R1292
