"Hi Sean, how are you?"

"Hey, Sean, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Hello, Sean, you really look the same way you look in the movies."

Along the way, from time to time, people he knew or didn't know greeted Sean, and Sean had to deal with it with a smile on his face, but in a few dozen minutes, he felt as tired as after filming a movie for several hours.

"It's really the same as the previous treatment." It was easy to find a corner to rest, and Sean looked around and said with some self-deprecation.

It was Miramax's celebration party at the Roosevelt Hotel — yes, they didn't say it, but no one in attendance knew that no one could have predicted that a film as literary as "The Talented Ripley" would topped the North American weekend box office charts. It's not that there are no literary and artistic works that have won high box office, but they are perfect for taking into account commerciality, such as "Forrest Gump" or "Robbery of Pear Blossom" and so on.

Although "Talented Ripley" is good overall, the shortcomings are still obvious, and Minghella's control of the pace is still a little slower. Therefore, to reach this level, in addition to luck, for example, there are just no powerful movies released, and "Elf Mouse Brother" has been released for almost a month, and "Challenge Sunday", which was pressed at the beginning, has disappeared, but Sean undoubtedly played a major role.

If it weren't for the countless eyeballs he attracted, if it weren't for the huge momentum he set off, coupled with the excitement of the Golden Globe Awards, Zuihou prompted more curious audiences to enter the cinema, how could "The Genius Ripley" still win 11.27 million at the box office in the third week? Although many people expressed their disappointment after watching it, and some people even claimed on the Internet that "Talented Ripley" was not worthy of its name, more people thought that it was not bad.

In this case, Miramax naturally wanted to celebrate, so he chartered a room at the Roosevelt Hotel and invited many people to attend. Sean didn't think too much about it at first, and came with Galen and Frederick, but he didn't expect that many people who came to the drinking party were extremely enthusiastic about him, and after two laps, Galen and Frederick disappeared, leaving him to deal with it alone.

"Hey, Sean, what are you hiding here?" Before he could rest for two minutes, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

"I just want to rest, Fred." Sean rolled his eyes at his agent.

"What, the taste of fame is starting to bother you?" Frederick asked quippingly, blinking.

"A little." Sean shrugged, then added, "But that's it." ”

It's true that it's a little annoying to deal with, but those words with flamboyance do have a fluttering feeling in your ears, even knowing that they are just.

"Where's Galen?" He changed the subject.

"Probably accosting a chick in a corner, he's more open than you do, Sean." Frederick patted him on the shoulder and laughed.

"Yes, do you really think that he can still let go of my situation, where many people don't stop asking questions?" Sean asked rhetorically.

"Don't complain, Sean, you're a big star," Frederick patted him on the shoulder, "You can play roles that are much more mature than your age, you can help Ripley the Genius top the weekend box office charts, you are one of the youngest actors nominated for Best Actor in a Drama Drama at the Golden Globes, do you have any grievances?" ”

"Okay, I'm just talking." Sean hurriedly raised a hand, then thought about it, and still asked: "How about the Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars?" ”

"Which aspect? Authority? Or influence? The agent smiled, "It's not comparable at all." ”

He stretched out his hands and drew two exaggerated circles, repeating his words one more time: "Not at all comparable." ”

"Is that an exaggeration?" Sean was a little surprised, "The Golden Globe Award is also a well-known award, right?" At least it's higher than the Youth Choice Award or the awards of the various associations, right? ”

"The popularity is indeed quite high, but the status is similar to the awards of various associations, how authoritative can the awards be based on less than a hundred media reporters?" Frederick seemed a little dismissive, "It's too easy to influence their choice, if the PR Oscars are very difficult, the PR Golden Globes can only be regarded as an entry." ”

Instead, compared to the Academy of Film and Arts Sciences, which has 5,000 members who can vote for the Oscars, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which hosts the Golden Globes, fewer than 100 journalists can vote. Naturally, there is a lot of room for operation in this area than the Oscars, so the Golden Globes will have some scandals from time to time, but after all, it was established early, and it is an award organized by the journalists' association, so it is still well-known.

"In this case...... Sean thought of something else, but unfortunately he was interrupted by the other party before he could say it: "Don't be delusional, although there is a little possibility, but the probability is quite small, even if the public relations of the Golden Globe Awards is the easiest, it is also based on a certain foundation, now you, the qualifications are still too shallow, unless the members of the journalists' association suddenly feel the need to make some shocking moves, otherwise, even if millions of dollars are spent on public relations, it is only a 5% chance to increase to 20%." ”

Then, the agent patted his arm again: "But don't worry, Sean, as long as you keep it up, it won't be difficult to win the Golden Globe, even Sylvester?" Stallone and Tom? Cruise has won both the Ballon d'Or. So don't look too much on this, you should have bigger goals, like the Oscars. Of course, don't be delusional this year, it's already good to have a Golden Globe nomination. ”

"Okay, I got it." Sean raised his hand.

After a few more words of conversation Frederick left, Sean breathed a sigh of relief again, but before he could fully exhale, another familiar person appeared in front of him, and it seemed that it would be difficult to be idle tonight.

"Hi Sean, I didn't expect you to be in there, I thought you were in the middle of the hall." Gwyneth looked quite beautiful in a lake-green one-shoulder evening dress, with blond hair coiled behind her head and light makeup.

"You're as beautiful as ever, Gwynnie," Sean couldn't help but say, "this dress is perfect for your eyes." ”

"You're as talkative as ever, Sean." Gwyneth chuckled, then added, "Not at all for your age." ”

Her eyes were a little wandering, and the gaze she looked at Sean became a little complicated, probably because after knowing his real age, she felt that it was too strange that she was attracted to him in Italy.

"Some things have nothing to do with age," Sean said, then changed the subject, "You just said you thought I was in the center of the hall, and I was going to be there?" ”

"Don't you know? You're the person everyone wants to know tonight, and everyone wants to know what kind of 19-year-old can do that. Speaking of this, Gwyneth's eyes brightened and became more and more curious.

Although she was looked at like this, Sean sighed in her heart, knowing that when she met her at the premiere before, she kept a little distance quietly.

"That's right, what kind of 19-year-old can do this." A familiar voice was heard, and then Jude and Hoffman walked over.

"You guy, you dare to hide your age, you're only 19 years old, it's too much." Although Jude put on a vicious appearance, threatening to grab him by the collar and question him, there was a smile in his eyes.

"I didn't mean to." Sean put on an innocent appearance and said in a sincere tone as much as possible.

"I absolutely don't believe it, Sean, I absolutely don't believe it." Jude poked his finger in the shoulder, "You should be glad that if I had known about this when I first joined the crew, you would have died." ”

"Well, then how can I compensate you so that you can forgive me magnanimously?" Sean sighed.

"Leave him alone, Sean, he's just jealous." Hoffman smiled and pulled Jude away, "But I really didn't expect that you were only 19 years old, and at this age, I still want to ask the girls out of the troupe." ”

Sean could tell that Hoffman was telling the truth, that he was such a person, as if he could be calm about anything. In comparison, although Jude was joking, he still showed a little jealousy, which was largely true, if he knew that he was only 19 or 18 years old when he joined the crew, I am afraid it would have embarrassed him a little.

But now the relationship between them is familiar, and the response to the movie is also good, so that little bit of jealousy has not affected anything. Gwyneth, on the other hand, wanted to say something, but after Jude and Hoffman appeared, she finally gave up on this plan, and after a few conversations, she took her leave and left.

It would be a mistake to think that this was the case tonight, and a few minutes after Gwyneth left, Minghella and a fat man with a big belly came over.

"Look, our hero turned out to be here, so I found a lot of circles." Weinstein Haha smiled and shook Sean's hand, just like the indifferent look at the premiere, "Look at our young man, how spirited." ”

"Hello, Mr. Weinstein, it's a pleasure to see you here." Sean still has the same tone that is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Harvey, call me Harvey," Weinstein said that both of his eyes were bent into crescents, and then looked at Jude and Hoffman, "Can I talk to Anthony and Sean?" ”

Miramax's bosses all spoke like this, and of course they wouldn't refuse, and after saying hello to Sean, they left.

"Oh, Sean, Sean, what should I say?" Weinstein let out a long sigh and reached out and slapped both of his arms hard, "You're amazing to me, you're so good." ”

"Hmm......" Sean, who was a little uncomfortable with this enthusiasm, wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by the other party.

"I know what you're trying to say, Sean, but I'm sure you can understand a producer's concerns, right?" Weinstein patted him on the arm again, "Don't take that to heart, you're a very good actor, you're going to have a great future, Anthony thinks so." ”

He said and looked at Minghella beside him, who smiled and nodded to Sean, then coughed lightly.

Weinstein immediately showed a sudden look, and then took out something from his pocket: "I remember that the crew only paid you 300,000 yuan, right?" It's too little, it's too little, and it doesn't show your value at all, so Anthony and I decided to give you some compensation as a reward after discussion. ”

As he spoke, he handed the folded paper in his hand to Sean, it was a check, and after opening it and seeing the numbers, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, it was actually 1.5 million!

At this moment, Sean finally deeply realized what Frederick said at the beginning, when you have great value, they will give you whatever you want......
