Chapter 240: Something Went Wrong

I have to say that in October 01, the United States felt a lot of disasters, 911 had just passed, and the anthrax attacks were very loud, and many government departments received envelopes suspected of containing anthrax. Then the Midwest region suddenly encountered a snowstorm at this time, and everyone stayed at home for a while, and couldn't go anywhere. And the earthquake in California started again, even if it was not as severe as in '94, but it was still an earthquake that needed to be taken seriously on the West Coast, where earthquakes were frequent.

All of these have affected people's lives, and cinemas, as one of the most trafficked public places, naturally bear the brunt, and many movies that were released in October have handed over an ugly answer. For example, produced by Warner Bros., by Denzel? Washington and Ethan? "Training Day" starring Hawke only earned a box office of more than 20 million after its release in nearly 3,000 theaters on October 5.

In this case, due to various considerations, Columbia Pictures postponed "The Perfect Thief", which was originally scheduled to be released on October 12. Of course, they will definitely not admit that the pressure given by "Training Day" is also one of the reasons, it is a play between two men, and they are both the theme of crime, but the rhythm of "Training Day" seems to be faster than that, even in this case, it can still get a box office of more than 20 million, needless to say about the quality.

Colombia could certainly push Perfect Thief out of the ring by Jihua, but they could also postpone it for a better slot, and now they've opted for the latter.

As for their thoughts, Sean also basically guessed them after discussing them with Frederick, Vladimir and Sanders, so even if he was a little unwilling, he could only accept it helplessly.

But the postponement of "Sniper Phone Booth" makes people want to be depressed and even annoyed, because Fox's excuse is that the film is in conflict with a TV series they are currently staring on! What the hell is this, what kind of conflict can movies and TV series have? But Fox did give evidence, even if it wasn't sufficient, but they couldn't do anything about it.

The TV series produced by Fox is called "24 Hours", which is based on the theme of counter-terrorism, and one episode tells a story that happens in an hour, so there are exactly 24 episodes in one season. And "Sniper Phone Booth" is often 90 minutes, and it tells exactly what happened in the phone booth within 90 minutes, and the so-called conflict is that they all show the plot of about the same length in a fixed time.

If it is placed at another time, it is nothing, but because of 911, "24 Hours" was postponed to November, because the theme is anti-terrorism, and the current theme of the United States is also anti-terrorism, so I want to take advantage of this topic to stir up the TV, in this case, naturally will not allow movies with the same model to appear first.

After all, FOX is currently at the bottom of the four major TV stations, and News Corp naturally prioritizes the development of FOX, with an investment of less than 15 million in "Sniper Phone Booth", and the style is also very strong, so it's no problem to find a time to release it.

In this regard, Sean can only smile bitterly, as an actor, if he wants to maintain his popularity, he naturally has to keep having works released. I thought that there would be three or four movies released next year this year, and then it would become one of the focus of media attention again, especially the one-man show of "Sniper Phone Booth", which would definitely attract a lot of attention, but I didn't expect it to be postponed, and two at a time, which is really depressing.

Despite this, Sean can't do much, although he is now quite famous and has his own production company, which has not been able to influence the upper echelons of these big studios.

Well, think about the good in everything, at least there are big productions like "Ocean's Eleven", and the first part of "The Lord of the Rings" will also be released this year, I hope the two production teams will not cut their own scenes. Besides, the big sale of "My Grand Greek Wedding" before the summer vacation this year also attracted him a lot of attention, and he also got the title of a lucky boy, and "Dance of Death Rows" is also obviously going to the Oscars, if he can get the nomination, he can also step on the red carpet of the Oscars again, so it's not very bad.

In addition, his first single, the first single under the name "YouRaiseMeUp", is already nearing the end of recording, and basically everyone who has heard it thinks it is good, and it should gain some popularity after its release.

To be honest, Sean has spent a long time on this single, and if he is another experienced singer, it can be completed in two weeks at most, and the melody is not very difficult, the key is to sing the voice, how to highlight that rich feeling, in order to achieve a shocking effect.

For him, this is not particularly difficult, Sean has a decent voice, and he was rejected by the record company before only because he was not distinctive. Besides, even if the singing is not particularly good, there is still a big killer in post-production, and you can just adjust it directly if you want any effect. Of course, if you go too far, and adjust the incomplete pentatonic tone into a fairly good song, then singing live will be a big problem.

Sean naturally disdains this, he still has some confidence in his singing skills, but after all, it is the first time to record a song, and he has to keep improving, so the efficiency has slowed down.

"It doesn't matter, as long as it is released within this year, I don't plan to make much progress in music anyway, it's just my hobby, and by the way, to encourage the families of the victims of the 911 incident, I'm still an actor at heart." Sean kept looking at Frederick as he said this at home.

And the agent who came to visit sat there, with a nonchalant expression, as if none of this had anything to do with him. Well, Sean just wanted to tease, anyway, he was telling the truth, and the songs were recorded just to try something new, like ...... Well, always try new women like that.

Life should be full of passion, so that motivation will be used, and even though there may be many troubles, some troubles are still as few as possible.

"Don't tell me, Millie, you came to me and didn't call the family." Sean sat on a chair in the bedroom, looked at the girl lying on the bed and asked solemnly.

"I'm not a child, I'm already a big girl, I can take responsibility for my decisions, and I don't always have to be accompanied to come over!" Camilla immediately jumped to her feet, waving her arms and shouting angrily.

Because Jordana was going to Yale to go to college, she couldn't take Camilla to Sean's side, so her parents terminated the activity, although Sean had a good relationship with their family, he was a man after all, and the few friends who lived with him were also men. However, for Camilla, who has become accustomed to having a few days of lawless vacation time every month, it is just too bad, too bad to bear.

So, she's running over now, just like that time in the studio, and she's not leaving Sean.

"But the problem is that the law doesn't think so," Sean sighed, reassuring with kind words, "and you'll have to wait another three or four years before you can legally be considered an adult who can exercise your rights independently." ”

"I don't care, I know what I'm doing!" Camilla said angrily that since Jordanna went to Yale, she has never been to Sean's place, but she has only met at the birthday party for a year, and usually talks on the phone at most.

"Don't be willful, Millie." That's all Sean can say.

"You can't do this to me," Camila cried, biting her lip and a threatening glint in her long slender eyes, "you know...... To know ......"

"Are you threatening me?" Sean immediately sank his face.

The girl was startled, quickly returned to normal, leaned over in a little panic, and said in a pleading tone: "Don't be like this, Sean, don't let my vacation go to waste, okay?" ”

"It's not like Little Joe won't come back." Sean sighed.

"But how can that little time be enough?" Camila flattened her mouth, looked at him pitifully, and then pressed it to him.

"Wait...... Wait, what are you doing? Sean immediately sat back.

But the girl sat on his lap like a snake, wrapped her hands around his neck, and exhaled in front of him: "Please, Sean." ”

Sean was in a trance for a while, you know, Camilla can sit on his lap with her legs apart, and the whole person is pasted up, even if she is wearing clothes, he can still almost feel her developing softness, if the lower body is a little forward, it will be even more exciting to do this. Not to mention such a close distance, taking a little breath, the girl's unique human youthful breath went straight to the nostrils.

"Rice...... Millie...... Wait......" Sean tried to tilt his head back, trying to sober himself up a little, but the girl didn't intend to let him go like that.

"Sean......" she called out again in a low voice, softly with an indescribable temptation, and her bright eyes seemed to be clouded with a layer of moisture.

"Listen, Millie, you can't ......" Sean took a deep breath and hugged her to stand up to say something, but before the words could be spoken, the girl blocked her mouth back.

She stepped on the tops of his shoes on tiptoes, stood on tiptoe, hooked his neck with both hands, and leaned back with her hanging body, her tongue very actively sticking in.

Caught off guard, Sean involuntarily followed her activities, and the sweet smell that only belonged to the girl suddenly wrapped him tightly, making him intoxicated and unable to extricate himself.

The two maintained this strange posture, kissing over and over again, exchanging each other's saliva and passion, since that mistaken kiss, Camilla has often asked for kisses, Sean was entangled and couldn't help it, plus a little broken jar and broken thoughts, as long as she made a look of praying or crying, she would always be satisfied.

Such indulgence also made Camilla obsessed with kissing games and a little lawless, often looking for opportunities to carry out sneak attacks, not to mention, and not to look at the occasion, once if it wasn't for Sean to hide quickly, I'm afraid it would have been discovered by Jordana.

But today seems to be a bit excessive, Sean used to maintain a little sanity and not move even when he tasted her mouth with all his heart, but now his hands are roaming the girl's body.
