Chapter 559: The Engagement Ceremony

Bergman Pictures is a family business, and it was Bergman Jr. who came to Chicago, Jewish, and gradually took over the business of his father Martin Bergman in recent years.

The Phantom Man is the copyright that the old Bergman bought in 82, found someone to complete the script in 90, and started the project after the investment of Bell Pictures in Germany last year, with a production cost of 40 million dollars, most of the funds came from Germany.

As early as the 70s, in order to compete with East Germany for cultural influence, the West German government gave the film industry a lot of preferential tax policies, so some rich West Germans would turn their money around in film projects to avoid taxes reasonably. With the reunification of the two Germanys, more and more funds have flowed into the United States in recent years, and they have been killed by Hollywood vampires.

With the Germans on top, Bergman Pictures can't lose much, otherwise with their family's shrewdness in Hollywood for many years, how could they rashly throw 40 million huge funds into such a big project.

However, Bergman Jr. is still in a very low mood, No. 4, the first weekend of the summer season ended, and the Phantom Wizard's score of 11.7 million dollars ranked third at the box office, but professionals and audiences received a flood of bad reviews, and Entertainment Weekly even called it one of the worst movies of all time, only the most appealing film critic Roger Albert, who has spent a lot of money on public relations, gritted his teeth and gave a three-star evaluation, and his perfect score was four stars, which was naturally crazy ridicule by other film critics.

There is no box office momentum, and the peripheral products are naturally yellow, "Stop ordering, the video game project is also canceled, yes, it's my father's meaning." The car drove to the door of the APLUS mansion in Highland Park and slowly stopped, he rolled down the window, and shook the invitation card in his hand at the doorman.

"Welcome! Tell me about ......"

The inside and outside of the mansion have been decorated like a fairy tale, and Song Ya and Mariah Carey, dressed in full costume, stand at the door to greet new guests, both of their cheeks slightly red with excitement, "This is Mr. Bergman, the investor of The Phantom, and this is my fiancΓ©e......"

"You're beautiful today, Miss Kelly." Little Bergman leaned over and kissed the back of Mariah Carey's hand very gracefully, "She doesn't need you to introduce her, APLUS haha, congratulations." ”

"Thank you."

Mary Carey, dressed in a white wedding dress, happily thanked her, "Feel free to do so." ”

"Okay, I'll go talk to my friends."

He had already seen Szymberg, the president of the universe chatting with David Geffen at the cold dining table, took a glass of champagne from the waiter, and approached while greeting other celebrities, familiar or unfamiliar.

"How's your Night Visit Vampire project?"

Szeinberg was pretending to be concerned about David Geffen's yin and yang weirdness, "Filmed for six months? I heard Tom Cruise whispering ......"

He knew that David Geffen had handed over the release of the Night Interview with Vampire to Warner, and it would be hellish for Simberg to be happy, and the movie seemed to be scheduled for Halloween in November.

"It's going to be a work of art, and I'll keep my mouth shut when I get the Oscar." David Geffen replied-for-tat.

"Hehe, I'll see."

Observing that Simberg had the intention of ending the conversation, he stepped forward, "Mr. Szynberg, Mr. Geffen." He smiled and stretched out his hand to the two bigwigs.

"Little Bergman......" Szyberg shook it casually, his attitude was very cold, and his heart was cold.

"Catherine! Sorry for the loss. David Geffen took the opportunity to leave gracefully and went to the president of Amperin Pictures.

"How is your father?" Schinberg asked.

"He asked me to thank you on his behalf." He first complimented the other party a few words, and then asked about the Phantom Wizard's second week of film scheduling and publicity.

"Guess what they're talking about?"

This scene was observed by Yeremov, who leaned up behind Song Ya, who was clashing fists with New York hip-hop singers such as NAS and LL Cool J, and stabbed him in the waist.

"It's nothing more than scheduling, will Simberg help him?" Song Ya didn't look over there, and replied in a low voice.

"I don't know, anyway, if there are more of them, we will have less." Yeremov said.

"It's better not to have a war ......"

Song Ya said: "But their movies are really bad, those critics shouldn't mind losing two more sentences, right?" ”

"I understand." Yeremov smiled and blinked, leaving the side of the boss.

"I saw the yachts at the dock, it's beautiful, it has to cost millions, right? You guys bought a new one? ”

When NAS finished asking the question, he noticed that Mariah Carey rolled her eyes, and Song Ya replied with an unhappy face, "You asked her." ”

"You can't leave the dock empty and show the guests how embarrassing." Mariah Carey didn't answer, but turned to Songya to complain.

"Just rent one, we don't have time to drive, it's by Lake Michigan, not the sea ......"

"The scenery of the Great Lakes is worth going out on a yacht once in a while, okay, okay, I don't want to quarrel with you, I bought the boat."

"It's not about the money, Mimi!"

The young couple who were about to have an engagement ceremony quarreled, and NAS and LL Cool J looked at each other, "Well, let's go talk to a friend first." ”

"Okay, please, I remember Dree and they just went in." Song Ya pointed to the inside of the villa, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be in the small recording studio in the attic." ”

"See those big diamonds that sparkle on Mariah Carey? These two people can really make M-Fxxk, and I made my debut in 84......"

The two go to find Dree, who is complaining with Snoop Dogg and other West Coast guests, "Yo, brother in New York. ”

The two sides bumped fists, "You and 2PAC have been beef, right?" Snoopy Dogg asked with a smile.

"That kid doesn't respect me." The NAS replied unhappily.

"Hehe, you can take it easy......" Dre smiled, not going into further discussion.

β€œWTF? NAS, is your boss the new president of Warner Records? LL Cool J looked down from the small attic window, "followed by Rick Rubin's." ”

"those big guys." Dre spat out a smoke ring.

"Hey, Daniel, Rick, hello Mr. Morris, welcome......" Song Ya shook hands with Daniel, Doug Morris, and Rick Rubin with a smile on her face, "Miss Cole. ”

Daniel also brought Samantha Cole, who was selected to dance the heroine of my life, "Is the premiere on the fifteenth right? I'm going to see that movie, Amy must be doing a great job. Is she coming? "Samantha Cole is very well-behaved in front of the adults.

"There will be some screenings ...... the week before," Song Ya looked up, "But it doesn't matter, you can go and see it on the fifteenth." Amy is coming, in the ...... I don't know, just look for it. ”

"Okay. Uncle, I'm going to find a friend first. Samantha Cole said goodbye to Daniel.

"Miss Kelly, are you considering coming to Warner?" Doug Morris smiled and asked, "And APLUS, I just listened to the soundtrack you made for the film, and it's a really good album." ”

"Hey, here I am." Immediately met with Daniel's protests.

Of course, they won't take it seriously, the two six presidents are very attractive, and some singers and guests greeted one after another, "Whew!" While they were away to socialize, the bearded Ricky Rubin pulled his tie loose, "I don't often wear formal clothes." ”

"Thank you for doing it for us, Rick."

Mariah Carey had a very good attitude towards him, who was in charge of singing when he proposed, "But you can't really be in five tones, right?" ”

"Hah! Of course not, some singers still scold me for not being literate, it's all rumors. Rick Rubin laughed, and he bumped Songya with his elbow: "Hey, boy, what does your Amerika music site say, lack of investment?" ”

"Well, I haven't been paying attention to that business for a long time, you ask Delay? Hey, Delay! Song Ya called Dile, the groomsmen, "How is our website?" ”

"Uh......" DeLay looked embarrassed, "can you say that?" ”

"Say it."

"The traffic is not high, and most of it is focused on the extra gossip column."

"We should have a whole music website kind of database." Rick Rubin didn't come up with an idea, "Isn't it okay to just pick up his stuff and use it?" ”

"The ...... of the Defendant"

"Let's not talk about business today, okay?" Mariah Carey protests, and Rick Rubin and DeLay walk away while talking.

"People are tired." Taking advantage of the lack of entertainment, she complained to Song Ya.

"Alright then, let's go for a break......"

After standing for a long time, laughing so hard that the muscles in her face stiffened, Song Ya asked Donovan and Hayden to take over for the time being, and returned with her to the small lounge not far from the door.

'Colombian player Escobar, who scored an own goal against the United States, was shot dead in front of a local bar after returning home......

The TV is on, soccer news is playing, the World Cup is in full swing around the world, but the locals are barely paying attention, and Chicago has not even taken on a single game.

"Wow, Colombians are so harsh."

The two collapsed on the sofa, and Song Ya complained.

"Knead." She kicked her heels off and came over with her long legs.

Song Ya helped her rub it, her eyes stayed on the game screen of the TV show for a while, and a picture of the apocalypse movie got into her head, as if it was a football game in Mi Guo Middle School? Why did the male protagonist in the original movie of my life appear again, and he seems to have entered an upside-down golden hook......

"Brother, I'm sorry, I caught you ......" Song Ya silently apologized to the other party.

"Linda, are they outside the door?" Mariah Carey hugged her.

"Hmm......" Song Ya knew what she was alluding to, and the two became more and more entangled on the sofa.

Well? At this time, there was a noise behind the sofa, which startled the two of them, "You go on." It turned out to be Shakira, and the girl stood up with a blank face and strode away.

"Hey...... That girl is rude......" Mariah Carey protested against the closed door, "she's been eavesdropping!" ”

"I mean, who's going to watch football news here...... She's Colombian. ”
