Chapter 67: Beverly Hills
"What's wrong?" Mia Gosling couldn't help but ask.
"A little hassle, no worries. Ryan said nonchalantly.
As Helen said, neither the super-promoter Michael Ovitz nor the well-known CAA agency are real Hollywood overlords.
As long as you continue to maintain a good relationship with Twentieth Century Fox, then you don't need to pay attention to it.
As the used Ford pulls onto the highway and back to the apartment, Ryan stops the car and walks in with Mia.
"Well, not so bad apartment. ”
"It seems that you have been doing well lately. Seeing the apartment in front of her, a hint of surprise flashed in Mia Gosling's eyes.
She knows very well that Ryan's financial situation is not rich, and he definitely can't afford to rent this seemingly good apartment in front of her.
It seems that he is on the phone, and he is not bragging, and he is indeed mixing well in Hollywood.
"Okay, put the luggage away first, go to the refrigerator by yourself, find something to eat, and in the evening, accompany me to a banquet. ”
Ryan helped her move the salute to the second floor, a room.
Pushing open the door, there is a double bed with a lot of space, with brand new sheets already placed on it, and above the bed, there is a huge doll, and in the corner, there is a computer desk, a computer that has been installed for a long time.
Even in the United States, computers at this time are not common items.
"Wow, it's a computer?"
"Is there a network installed!" Mia Gosling looked at Ryan expectantly.
"It's already installed. "Ryan naturally won't do anything like just buying a computer and not installing the network, anyway, he's also now, a rich man who is not too big.
"But you can't be addicted to the Internet, especially games. ”
At this stage, the biggest use of computers is probably only to play games.
"Don't worry, I just want to play games, I'm afraid I don't have time. ”
Mia Gosling said with some regret: "I have decided to live on campus, at most during the holidays, come and play for a while." ”
She didn't come to Los Angeles to play with Ryan, but to go to school, and like Ryan, she applied to the University of Southern California.
It's just that she didn't apply for an art department, but a medical school.
"Very informed choice. "A lot of American college students choose to live on campus, which is a perfect college career.
Ryan put down the luggage in his hand, walked into the room, opened the closet, pointed to the only piece of clothing on the hanger, and said, "A beautiful evening dress, which is a gift for you to be admitted to the University of Southern California." ”
A very beautiful pale yellow evening dress, which looks full of youth, but without the slightest sexiness, and on the shoe rack, there is also a pair of cowhide boots, which are obviously used to match the evening dress.
"Wow, what a beautiful evening dress. ”
Mia Gosling couldn't help but step forward, took off her evening dress, put it in front of her and weighed it, and said, "It doesn't seem to be very cheap." ”
Ryan rolled his eyes, what does it seem that it is not very cheap, it is not cheap in the first place, it cost him tens of thousands of dollars.
"Remember, you're going to accompany me to a banquet later. ”
With that, he turned and left the room.
In fact, his relationship with Mia is somewhat complicated, and he can only be regarded as half a brother and sister, to be precise, a half-brother and sister.
The only thing that makes him happy is that don't look at his relationship with his father, it's not very good, and it's even a little stiff, but the relationship with Mia is pretty good.
Otherwise, he would not have prepared a room, bought evening dresses, and taken her to a banquet.
After a simple bite of bread, sausages, and a piece of pizza, Mia rushed into the room and began to put on makeup.
In her words, there is no disgrace to Ryan.
Nearly an hour passed before Mia Gosling slowly descended the stairs.
Dressed in an evening dress, he walked around in front of Ryan, "How's it going, it's not bad, right?"
"It's beautiful. Ryan said with a shrug of his shoulders.
Seriously, Mia's makeup skills are very average, not very good, far inferior to Hollywood female stars.
Ryan has personally experienced the makeup skills of Hollywood female stars, and Monica Bellucci is one of the best, as if she was born to know how to show her best side.
In contrast, Mia's makeup skills are at most passing, not so ugly.
Then again, let a wild girl who grew up on a farm in Texas compare makeup with Hollywood actresses?
Very honest answer. Mia Gosling nodded in satisfaction and said, "Where to go to the banquet!"
"Beverly Hills. Ryan stood up and helped Mia sort out her clothes, "It's Tom Cruise's celebration tonight, so don't run around like you're on the farm." ”
"Unless you want to be kicked out. ”
Beverly Hills, known as "the world's most exclusive residential area", is known as a symbol of wealth, fame and fortune.
There are the world's most upscale commercial streets, as well as many mansions of Hollywood movie stars, and it is also a mecca for the world film industry, where almost every Hollywood A-list star will buy a mansion, and Tom Cruise is no exception.
Since starring in "Top Gun", Tom Cruise's acting career has begun to rise.
At present, one of his films will be released during the Christmas schedule, with an investment of up to $60 million in "Interview with the Vampire", and the box office on the first day is as high as $36 million.
Even if the box office trend of the film is not very stable, it is conservatively estimated that the box office of the film in North America exceeded 100 million US dollars, and there should be no problem.
In addition, with the upcoming overseas box office, Warner Bros. can not only easily recoup its investment, but even make a fortune.
At the same time, it also fully proves the box office appeal of Tom Cruise.
The banquet held in the evening is the first step to start the global promotion of "Night Vampire", and the next step will be to Spain, Brazil, Denmark and other countries and regions.
"Beverly Hills?"
"Tom Cruise!"
Mia Gosling couldn't believe it and asked, "It's Tom Cruise from Top Gun!"
Ryan nodded and said, "I think there should be only one Tom Cruise in Hollywood." ”
After receiving an affirmative answer, Mia Gosling was visibly nervous and said, "Then can I ask him for an autographed photo in a moment!"
As one of the most popular Hollywood stars in North America at the moment, Tom Cruise obviously has countless fans.
"There should be no problem. ”
"If you have to be very polite. Ryan reminded.
In the face of fans asking for autographed photos, any Hollywood star will not refuse, but is very generous.
Especially at his own banquets.
But, as Ryan says, the premise must be polite.
