Chapter 149: 149

In the evening.

Outside a luxury house on the hillside of palisade, the narrow mountain road is almost impassable due to the crowd of multimedia reporters, and the intensive flashing lights are constantly on.

Before the party, a lot of media offered sky high prices, hoping to get in and shoot, but they were all rejected. However, Simon's refusal attracted more reporters to join in the fun, and some TV stations even drove the live broadcast vehicles.

Compared with the thank you party at the end of June last year, the size of this birthday party has also expanded a lot.

Many projects initiated by danielis pictures are in the early stage of preparation. For the most obvious purpose, Simon's agent Jonathan Friedman took away 100 invitation letters. According to two guests per invitation letter, only the number of wma guests reached the scale of the last party.

Due to the change of identity, Simon's social circle has been expanding rapidly unconsciously for more than half a year. Many guests from New York, San Francisco and other places have come to the party specially. Simon is not stingy and rents two business airplanes to take care of the party.

In addition to the large number of Hollywood natives, the total number of guests at the party exceeded 700, and the number of security, waiters, bands and other service personnel at the party site reached 100. As a result, the spacious One Acre Estate immediately became crowded.

By the time Sandra Bullock arrived, the party had not yet officially started, and the manor was full of people. After exploring the crowd for a long time, she found Simon, who was talking with Warner Bros. CEO Terry Semel, and the atmosphere didn't seem very harmonious.

"Terry, I didn't mean to surprise Warner. I want to make Batman and I like Superman as well. It's that simple. "

"When you were negotiating with us about Batman, you must have started to get in touch with Sargent. Simon, Warner got the news at the last minute. "

"You should understand why I'm doing this, Terry. I'm interested in anything now, and its value will suddenly soar a lot. I don't like being treated as a fat sheep all the time. I can only deal with this matter in a low-key way. Moreover, although I have obtained the copyright of Superman, the terms in the contract will not change. Warner still has the right you should have. "

"Simon, I know you want to buy DC, and I'm sure you have other ideas. But anyway, I hope we can communicate with each other very calmly, so that we can win-win situation, "said Terry Semel, looking at Simon, then slowing down and reaching out to him, saying," and happy birthday. "

Simon and Semel shook hands and said, "thank you, Terry. Have a good time tonight."

Sandra Bullock patiently waited for Terry Semel to leave before he stepped forward. Simon had already turned around, hugged her and said, "Sandy, you are so beautiful tonight."

"Thank you," Sandra and Simon separated, stepped back a little, looked at him, and said, "happy birthday."

Simon said, "what about the gifts?"

Sandra took a box out of her purse and handed it to her

Simon took the small box, which was less than two centimeters square, and looked at it in the palm of his hand. He pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "how small is it?"

Sandra said, "if you like big, I'll prepare it for you next time."

Simon looked at Sandra and nodded solemnly: "the bigger the better."

Sandra was embarrassed by Simon: "can you stop staring at me when you talk like this?"

Simon said with a smile, "I don't mean anything else."

Sandra gave Simon a white look and said, "you dare have something else, coward."

"Too provocative?"

Sandra repeated without hesitation, "coward."

Simon immediately lost: "well, I'm a coward."

Sandra made a really spineless look of disdain. She glanced at the crowd around her and continued to stand beside Simon. She asked, "your company has set up so many projects. Should there be a suitable role for me this time? I still have half a year before "back to the future" starts

Simon said, "are you going to play scream?"

Sandra immediately shook her head and refused with a smile: "no, such a silly play."

Simon added: "what about Catherine's" the blue angel of thunder "

Sandra thought of Simon and Catherine's ambiguous relationship, feeling strange, shaking her head again: "I, I still don't think it's appropriate."

"These two films are women's leading roles. If you don't want to play in them, there won't be any suitable ones for the moment," Simon shrugged. "You should have seen all the other projects, too. These are all commercial films. It's impossible for you to play a supporting role."

Sandra looked back carefully, then glared at Simon: "it's all your fault. I can't even find the right role now. In Tom Cruise's cocktail last time, paramount had agreed to let me play the leading lady, but later somehow changed her mind. Jonathon got the news that cruise thought I was too famous. ""That's what cruise looks like. What does it have to do with me?" Simon said innocently: "moreover, the movie" a fish named Wanda "that I recommend to you is also very good. If it wasn't for last year, I didn't have enough money, I would certainly have robbed the script."

After the box office success of "Lola Run", although two "back to the future" series have been signed, the film will only start shooting in the second half of this year. Naturally, Sandra can't be idle and start looking for other projects.

There is no suitable role for her in vulgar novel. After several times of picking and choosing, Sandra finally took on a very interesting black comedy, a fish named Wanda, recommended by Simon.

In Simon's memory, "a fish named Wanda" tells the story of four stupid thieves stealing a diamond worth millions of dollars through absurd and coincidental techniques of expression and cold humor of various cultural conflicts between Britain and the United States. The film not only achieved great success at the box office, but also won many awards, including Oscars.

When Sandra heard Simon mention the film, she complained half truely: "well, I don't know if I can get a share of a low-cost film with a million dollars plus 10% of the net profit, but I took your advice. If you mess up, you have to make it up to me. "

After Sandra confirmed her participation, the production cost of "a fish named Wanda" was only $8 million. Because of the success of Lola Run, the package price for Sandra to perform two series of "back to the future" is $5 million. If she participates in commercial films alone, the pay will be higher. Obviously, the Wanda crew can't afford it.

Jonathan didn't want Sandra to take over the film at the beginning. He wanted the girl to take part in Cruise's new film cocktail. After "cocktail" failed, and Sandra insisted, Jonathan and producer MGM film negotiated a share contract to reduce the film's remuneration.

In Simon's memory, the box office of a fish named Wanda in North America is more than 60 million US dollars, but the net profit share in this aspect can exceed Sandra's value, not to mention that she signed an omni channel profit sharing contract.

Box office, videotape and television together, although it will take several years to get all kinds of revenue back, the total revenue may even exceed $10 million.

In the 1980s, female stars who could earn tens of millions of dollars could count them with one hand.

When Sandra signed the film contract, "Lola Run" had already exceeded 200 million dollars, which was almost certain to win the annual title. She was equal to supporting a North American box office champion of the year by herself. Therefore, MGM now attaches great importance to Sandra's participation in the film after "Lola Run", and also determines the schedule in the next hot summer season. It's absolutely easy to succeed again.

Simon could not have said this to Sandra now. Listening to the girl's complaint, he just said with a smile, "well, I really failed. I'll make it up to you."

Sandra looked at Simon with an unpredictable smile and couldn't help saying, "well, make it up to me."

Simon's expression immediately became heavy: "do you want it cooked? Jennie's going to cook me for sure. "

Sandra chuckled and noticed that many people around her looked at him. She quickly gathered her expression and said, "yes."
