Just when Spielberg was holding Cameron and getting together with Hanks, who had heard the news, he didn't know that they were whispering about his Roland, who was huddled shoulder to shoulder with the little plum he hadn't seen for a year.

At the same time as clinking glasses, the crisp sound hooked the smile, looking at the handsome and compelling figure, Roland smashed his mouth and said, "Wow!" Aren't you Peter Parker's classmate? Looks like it's called Harry? Oh! I think you're so much more handsome than Peter Parker! ”

Hearing this, Xiao Lizi's face suddenly bloomed with a bright smile, but in the next second, he frowned, his signature forehead wrinkles jumped on his forehead, his left hand was in his pocket, and he shook his head again and again, "Oh, sir, I know I'm handsome, but you must not say this today, if Roland Allen hears it, I think the role of Harry Osborne will be far away from me." ”

"Really? Could it be that Roland Allen is still a crew bully? Roland's face showed surprise.

“yeah！ He's like Spike from To and Jerry! Xiao Lizi nodded vigorously.

"You call me a dog?" As soon as he heard this, Roland immediately stopped pretending, staring at each other.

"No, no, I praise you as the most loyal friend of mankind." Xiao Lizi pretended to be afraid, but still made up a sentence with a hard mouth.

"I'll kill you......" Roland raised his fist and wanted to hammer him.

Xiao Lizi held his head in his hands and hurriedly begged for mercy, "Don't hit me in the face." ”

......Seeing the two of them performing so contrivedly and pompously, Kate immediately laughed.

The two who heard the sound did not hold back, and the smile that was difficult to hide appeared instantly, and at the same time, the two also hugged with open arms, and their mouths did not stop, greeting each other.

"Hi, Roland, congratulations on the big hit."

"Thanks, but congratulations, you're even more handsome than Roland Allen!"

Since the release of "Spider-Man", Xiao Lizi, a supporting role that has been mixed in feature films, has become popular in an instant.

With her bright and blind appearance, she has become the favorite of many young ladies.

If IDB's communication section is a celebration paradise for many fans, then now, the discussion area where they can speak freely is basically occupied by two people, one is Roland, who exploded when he debuted and seems to have not touched the peak so far, and the other is the handsome earth-shattering little plum who has just been discovered by the public.

The halo effect in psychology is real.

And with the blessing of the 'food amplifier' of commercial films, Xiao Lizi's current popularity is worse than that of Roland.

Cough...... Well...... It's almost the fingertip universe, right?

Although Xiao Lizi's "Titanic" was taken by Roland, the time for his explosion was also two years ahead of schedule because of Roland's butterfly, even if his popularity is definitely not comparable to "Titanic", but now, he doesn't have to be afraid that the pot of Shengshi Beauty will overwhelm him, because Roland took the initiative to carry it......

Since we are all friends, isn't it a matter of course to 'share the blessings and share the difficulties'?

Xiao Lizi cares about acting skills, and the pain that fascinates thousands of girls is borne by Roland alone.

'Huh! How can I be so noble? ’

After a few chats, Roland introduced Kate to Xiao Lizi.

Looking at the figures that met and parted, the feeling of the most familiar stranger made Roland shake his head slightly.

Trying to get rid of the co-shot images in his memory, when asked about the other party's current situation, Roland heard an unexpected news.

"After filming Romeo and Juliet, Robert suggested that I take on a project."

"He believes that "Spider-Man" will definitely be a big hit, and I can also enjoy the dividends of high exposure."

"Sure enough, after "Spider-Man" broke the record of "Jurassic Park", many studios approached me."

"Since I already have a commercial series, I chose a project that could be used for the Olympics after picking and choosing."

"Paul Anderson, you know what? His film, called "Unruly Night", tells the story of a seventeen-year-old boy. ”

Oh god!

When Roland heard the names Paul Anderson and "Unruly Night", surprise flashed in his eyes.

Paul Anderson: How could he not know?

"Magnolia" by Tom Cruise, "Blood is Coming" by Daniel Lewis, "The Phantom Stitcher", "Sex is Evil" by Jaaquin Phoenix, ...... These are all taken by him.

And "Unruly Night", of course he also knows.

Who made the film's male lead, Mark Wahlberg, reveal his big big baby in the film?

Yes, this is a film similar to "Legend of Fallen Street", which tells the story of the film's most glorious decade in America.

The main role, of course, is to win the prize!

If Roland is not mistaken, Xiao Lizi in his previous life also liked this project very much, but unfortunately, the filming schedule of this movie overlapped with "Titanic", and he signed a contract with Fox first, so he could only miss it.

However, in this life, without the obstruction of the truck driver, Xiao Lizi took over the feature film he was best at.

The purpose, naturally, is also the same as his favorite actor Robert De Niro, in front of the camera, to show his acting skills!

Roland really has nothing to say about this kind of butterfly effect caused by himself.

Everyone's pursuit is different, Xiao Lizi likes acting, while Roland just likes movies.

In that case, that's a blessing.

…………

After chatting for a while, the two separated.

And the topics that continue with everyone else are actually the same, congratulations and congratulations......

In the face of the enthusiasm of these people, Roland, who held a celebration banquet out of his own pocket, naturally accepted it, but when he heard the words that wished "Spider-Man" could break the total box office record of "Jurassic Park", Roland expressed his gratitude, but he felt some regret in his heart.

Because he understands that "Spider-Man" can't break the record, in addition to the strong label of fans, the patriotic propaganda film "Independence Day" is also the reason that prevents it from reaching the top.

Unlike "Spider-Man", a movie that sells personal heroism and Roland's own upbringing, although "Independence Day" has serious flaws in science, in the eyes of outsiders, the extremely touching logic is the real selling point, or in other words, what pushes this movie to the altar is not the special effects, but the American savior spirit contained in it.

As a highly provocative Hollywood blockbuster, all the plot arrangements are actually based on American history.

The president personally flew to the battlefield, which was a perfect fit for Washington, which had participated in the Franco-Indian War and the War of Independence.

And with the help of the Americans, the scene of the world's armies joining forces to fight the alien invaders is the Great Americanism that they have been preaching through Hollywood.

Professor Guo Xiumei of Nanjing University once said that if you want to understand Western literature without reading the Bible, you will be scratching your boots.

And movies are things like that, so you don't have to read the Bible to understand what they're saying.

Is it how grand the picture is? Or how cool are the high-tech weapons in the movie?

Of course, all of these are available.

But the most fundamental thing is that after reading all this, a concept will more or less appear in people's minds -

American cow beep!

When this concept emerges, propaganda is actually in place.

Because of this, Roland didn't expect "Spider-Man" to break the billion record at all.

Because compared with "Independence Day", the idea of "Spider-Man" is obviously a little shallower.

…………

As he expected, on 1 July, Fox released the news that the Commander-in-Chief in Washington had watched "Independence Day" at the White House, and the next day, the Commander-in-Chief directly praised "Independence Day" at a press conference.

In addition, the other party also heartily said that this is a movie that embodies the American spirit, and the title of the film perfectly matches the celebration of Independence Day.

Although there were no spoilers, and there was no initiative to call on people to go into the theater to watch the movie, Fox still shamelessly marked the theater poster with the words 'Recommended by the Commander'.

Under this kind of comical operation, the North American Cinema Alliance also knowingly adjusted the film schedule.

First of all, some movies that were not popular were kicked out of the film schedule by the theater chain.

Secondly, "Tornado" and "Mission Impossible", which have been released for more than a month and almost two months, directly gave a single-digit film scheduling rate, and in the past month, "Spider-Man", which has killed all sides in the market, has also been pulled to 17 percent, plus some miscellaneous movies, the theater chain has vacated 50 percent of the share, leaving it for "Independence Day".

To be honest, if it weren't for the name "Independence Day" and the theme of the main theme, Will Smith's current coffee position would not have been able to enjoy the A-list schedule rate anyway.

But it's because after a series of disasters that the market and people need a booster, so—

Will Smith, the guy who hit the big luck, came to the top.

But even so, the appeal of "Independence Day" is far less exaggerated than "Spider-Man", which can move half of Hollywood to the premiere, but the box office of 51 million in the first weekend is still extremely powerful.

With the high box office of "Independence Day", the North American box office of "Spider-Man" also forcibly braked on the figure of 310 million.

Even with the guarantee of the North American Theater Alliance, they will let "Spider-Man" exist in theaters for half a year, but with a box office of millions, hundreds of thousands, and tens of thousands per week, it is no longer possible to break the box office record of nearly 400 million in "Jurassic Park".

The problem is that a movie rolls away 310 million a month, which has already made everyone crazy, okay!

Even if the box office momentum was forcibly stepped on the brakes, insiders also understood that it was not "Independence Day" that pulled Roland's forward pace at all, but the main theme that no one could tough!

But even with the blessing of the main theme, the record of breaking 100 million yuan the fastest is still Roland's!

It's really a sad story.

I finally discovered Roland's weakness, but this weakness can't be exploited at all!

╮(╯▽╰)╭

The narrowing of the North American box office actually means the beginning of overseas distribution.

In this era when Hollywood blockbusters cannot be released simultaneously, the box office results of North America are actually the most powerful slogan for overseas publicity, when the box office results of 310 million a month appeared, more than 60 countries and regions in the world almost gave a terrifying online rate, and Peter Parker's figure also directly crossed the Atlantic Ocean and appeared in all corners of the world.

…………

At the same time as "Spider-Man" was laying out the ball, Spielberg, who had been muttering quietly at the celebration banquet, also got together with Hanks, and the two nested in the villa with a view of the sea in Malibu Beach, while looking at the sea while enjoying the oncoming sea breeze, and on the hand table placed between the two, a hardcover document was quietly laid.

It reads - "Savg Private Ryan".

"Roland's state worries me a little, I didn't think he would be so immersed so thoroughly."

With his head in his hands, Spielberg, who was lying on a beach chair, took a deep breath.

He has read the script of "Titanic", and in his opinion, this kind of movie can be directly interpreted with the love stage of mutual affection between men and women, and it does not need to be honed for half a year.

Of course, an actor spends time looking for a role, which is actually a good thing to show respect, but to be honest, he really doesn't think Roland is an actor, since he is worth a billion, then you have to have the consciousness of being a capital, okay!

In fact, he has long seen that Roland's talent in acting is normal, and it is no problem to promote commercial films, but if you want him to portray a terminally ill dying person, or a character who needs to dig into his heart like homosexuality, then hehe.

Fortunately, Roland has never challenged himself, which makes him, a teacher, deeply gratified.

Self-aware!

But now......

A commercial romance film, does it need to be so exaggerated?

Daniel Lewis won't be preparing for half a year to act, you are acting in a commercial romance film, and you are tired of playing with the heroine for 180 days?

There is too much urea, and he can't even eat!

"Uh...... Maybe young people are old and want to fall in love? Isn't that normal...... When I was younger, I also liked to date pretty girls......" Hanks didn't dare to tell Spielberg that he was the first to fall in love.

Now that the wood is in the boat, then this black cauldron will go with the wind, "Besides, when Dustin and Lawrence were filming "Breaking Diamond", didn't Dustin not sleep for a few days for a scene? Mixed factions, it's normal ......"

"It's not a matter of factional mixing right now, okay? I'm afraid that he won't be able to get out after filming! ”

Spielberg turned his head to look at Hanks, and the worried gaze under the round lenses was all visible.

"He was exactly eighteen years old when the movie was released."

"If the two break up, I'm afraid he's going to break down."

"You know, Roland didn't like to go to any social drinking parties before, and now what? Although he is gentle towards everyone and is extremely generous in all aspects, he is extremely selfish in his feelings. ”

"Ever since I knew him in '90, he's only been on camera with a few of the Olsen guys, and the next thing is that he shows his affection for Scarlett in front of us, and as such a stingy guy, he's so close to Kate now...... I'm afraid something will happen to him, okay? ”

Spielberg said this, and Hanks was not easy to answer.

The old man doesn't believe in love, but he likes children.

To put it mildly, when he first accepted Roland, it was not without the too cute factor of Kevin in "Home Alone", and after meeting Roland in Hawaii, the calm guy has always been in his sight.

If the game brought by Mike Mohami was a stepping stone to open his heart, then asking him to sell the game rights of "Jurassic Park" to Sony on the grounds that "Nintendo can't be cheap" is the last step of real acceptance.

Because since the failure of the "Alien ET" game and the appearance of the Atari Shock, Roland is the first guy other than George Lucas to dare to tell him that catching Nintendo is what he did!

Although the words are very capricious, he has the capital of willfulness.

In addition, Roland is now spending money on developing games, even if he doesn't know much about real-time strategy, he still likes it.

Seriously, he expects that one day, Roland's game company will make a game to conquer the world.

so as to fulfill the dream he had made back then, but did not come true.

And now?

Dog-day Cameron!

I have to lie to his students to make some romance movie!

"Let's talk about Saving Private Ryan, shall we?"

Seeing that Spielberg's mood was not right, Hanks hurriedly changed the topic and grabbed the script on the stage.

"Did you call me over today to talk about the shooting schedule? I remember you were going to shoot Jurassic Park 2 right away, right? And then "Broken Locks"? Isn't "Saving Private Ryan" scheduled to start filming next summer? ”

"Or do you want to talk to me about the candidates? Didn't we say it before? Ryan's role was given to Roland. ”

"If you think he doesn't look like a soldier, it's absolutely fine to throw him in the army for half a year."

The project "Saving Private Ryan" actually began to be prepared in ninety-four years.

If you have to have a specific time, it will be not long after the release of "Forrest Gump".

And after reading the script, Hanks remembered Roland, who had been fooled and crippled by himself before.

It's just that Roland was preparing "Spider-Man" at the time, so he didn't tell him.

Now—

It's better to wait for "Titanic" to finish filming and talk to him.

When the time comes, if the two really break up, then throw him in the barracks and forget everything with training.

Of course, this is the worst-case scenario.

But before Hanks could praise his witty idea, Spielberg breathed when he saw the script.

Then the next second, he sighed, "It's not about the shooting schedule, it's not about the role of Ryan, it's about ......"

"The British Ministry of Defense refused to provide thousands of soldiers as extras, as I requested."

That's right, since you want to shoot the grandeur of the Normandy landings, finding a suitable beach has become the focus.

As for why not choose the battlefield of yesteryear?

Because it has become a protected historical site.

As a result, a beach in the UK has become a target, but the British Ministry of Defense is reluctant to provide trained manpower, so they may now face the trouble of changing land.

"Then we're going to find another place?" Hanks understood what the other meant.

However, before he could say yes and accompany the other party out to find a shooting location, Spielberg shook his head again and said, "No, I don't want to change places, what I think is ......"

"Didn't Kate call Uncle Kenneth? And didn't Kenneth have a good personal relationship with Prince Philip? So...... If we can stay in the UK and film, it will be the best......"

"Because that's our first choice."

Hold the grass ......

Looking at Spielberg's straight eyes, Hanks's heart was like 10,000 draft horses galloping by.

No...... You were just worried that if Kate and Roland broke up after filming, Roland might break down, and the next second told me, you wondered if you could use Uncle Kate's relationship to borrow thousands of soldiers from Prince Philip?

What the hell are you thinking?

This really beeps the trucker!

If it weren't for this guy who came up with a romance movie, then what he said casually at the beginning would not have been like this!

"And now......" Hanks didn't want to pay attention to Spielberg, "I'm going to call Roland?" ”

"Uh...... Don't be in a hurry now, wait for Roland to finish filming "Titanic". Spielberg thought for a while, and finally shook his head in confusion, "Let's find an alternative first, and if the situation is not right, we won't talk to him about it......"

"Okay, I see, if they don't score, then tell him about it, and if they do, then I don't know."

Hanks nodded, "That's good, save him unnecessary trouble now......"

…………

If you call Roland now, will it cause him unnecessary trouble?

Of course! If the call comes in now, then Roland will definitely be disturbed by them!

The reason is very simple, because yesterday, he had officially settled in the crew of "Titanic".

Early this morning, the roaring machine was already running.

But before they could shoot the first one, the truck driver was already raising a fist as big as a casserole, trying to beat Roland.

“jes g christ！ Can you give me a good stay in the break room? ”

"James, can't I just stand here and watch?"

"Of course not! You're standing here and you're in the way! ”

"I don't even look at the monitor, why am I in the way?"

"That's right! You don't really look at the monitor, but if you're here, there's a good chance she'll laugh! ”
