[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 107

"Goodm, my dear." Eve opened her eyes, wrapped her arms around Keanu's neck, and leaned forward to kiss him. The thin stubble on his face felt strange.

"Why don't you get more sleep?"

Keanu felt a little numb on his face. He lowered his head and looked at his girlfriend, and the other's face appeared in each other's eyes.

They obviously didn't say any love words, but the two of them touched their foreheads once, and the tip of their noses was next to the tip of their noses. They could clearly feel each other's breathing, and a wave of love spread in the bed.

Slowly approaching, the lips gradually overlapped together, quiet and peaceful.

Last night, the two of them watched the famous horror movie "The Silence of the Lambs" in the living room. The scene Keanu was expecting did not appear. His girlfriend had no fear at all. Instead, he watched it with gusto, and even dragged himself to discuss Judy together. -The acting skills of Foster and Anthony Hopkins.

Eve doesn't feel particularly scared watching horror movies, especially after filming one, she knows how cheerful and interesting these scenes are when filming. In fact, she wants to see the content behind the tidbits.

"Don't you have something to do today?" Keanu asked, he just wanted to stay in bed like this and couldn't get up.

"I'm going to MGM to sign the contract for "Legal Blonde". After signing the contract, nothing else will happen. I can spend the Christmas holiday with peace of mind."

Eve’s work years ago is finally coming to an end. If it’s filming, she would hesitate, but now after signing the contract, she can get half of the $100 million salary, and after handing over the 10% share to the brokerage company, she can get $45 , this is a timely help for her who is in urgent need of money!

Keanu thought for a while, looked at the sunlight that stubbornly penetrated through the gaps in the blinds, and suggested: "It shouldn't take much time to sign the contract, right? Why don't we ride to California Highway [-] today? The weather is very good, and the coastline is here. It must have been spectacular in the sun."

California Highway [-] stretches from Los Angeles to San Francisco, and winds along the west coast of the North American continent. It is called the fifty must-see places in life by National Geographic magazine, where the land and the sea meet. , very magnificent and beautiful.

Eve was a little moved. Anyway, the purpose of the holiday is to have fun, so she slowly calmed down. "Almost Famous" is a road movie, and it feels good for the two of us to experience the road trip in advance, which happened to be there.

So she readily agreed: "Then what do I need to prepare?"

"Wear a pair of trousers and a jacket. It may be a bit cold to sit in the car and be blown by the sea breeze. You don't need anything else."

"I'll go back and do my makeup and get ready. How about you driving to my door later?" Eve lifted a corner of the quilt, got up from the bed, quickly put on her clothes and left, looking like a scumbag.

The advantage of living in the same community is probably like this, it is very convenient no matter who stays overnight.

After she took care of her external image a little bit, she rode a bicycle from Keanu's villa and rode back to her home.

In order to facilitate commuting, Keanu specially asked his assistant to buy two bicycles, and now he just let Eve ride one back, which is more convenient and labor-saving than walking.

He stood shirtless on the edge of the balcony, with only a shirt draped over his shoulders, watching his girlfriend leave before Keanu returned to the room, "Living together seems a bit too fast now, if Eve's house is in the How nice to be next to!"

At that time, he would just make a tunnel or open a side door from the yard and go straight there. Even though the distance was only a few hundred meters, he couldn't stand it. He really didn't know what would happen to one in Australia and the other in North America half a year later.

You can only grasp the time in front of you and enjoy it to the fullest. If you think too much, you will only be timid.

Here, Eve stepped on the bicycle quickly with two long legs. She dragged the bicycle into her backyard, and then glanced at the clock in the living room. It was already [-]:[-] in the morning, not long before the agreed [-]:[-].

It must be too late to take a bath. She spent about 10 minutes taking a quick shower, and then tangled more about clothing and makeup. Finally, she chose a pair of ripped jeans with a white T-shirt she bought that day, and a pair of Converse The white sneakers, and finally put on the Burberry windbreaker, this stylish and capable outfit is considered complete.

If the sun is too dazzling when playing, you will definitely not be able to open your eyes. Eve found three sunglasses from the dressing table cabinet, and finally chose Ray-Ban sunglasses.

This dress is not bloated at all, but it seems to show her height and lines, so she must dress beautifully for a date.

It's a pity that mobile phones don't have a camera function now, and even if they had one, it would be very blurry, unable to record the happy memories of the two of us.

"I went to buy a Polaroid after I was paid for the film. I don't know how bulky Polaroids are now." Eve knew that Polaroid cameras existed from "Almost Famous", and the rock stars in the script They started using Polaroids in the 60s, which surprised her.

After 30 years of rapid technological development, I think the Polaroid technology must be more and more mature. In the future, I can take pictures of myself, Keanu or other people.

After getting dressed, Eve came to the door of her room, where Keanu was already waiting on the motorcycle.

He was wearing a leather jacket, and inside it was the couple's T-shirt that Eve bought that day. The two of them hadn't discussed it beforehand, but they thought of it by coincidence.

The two of them looked at each other's clothes and laughed almost at the same time, this is a tacit understanding!

"Do you know the location of MGM Pictures? Robert and the lawyer are waiting for me in the lobby over there."

Keanu handed over the black motorcycle helmet, nodded at the same time and said: "Yes, I have been there before. Now get in the car, let's go."

Eve buckled the helmet, then sat on the back seat of the car, holding her boyfriend's waist with both hands, resting her head on his shoulder, feeling very at ease.

"lets go!"

Keanu twisted the accelerator, the motorcycle engine made a low roar, and then slowly headed out of the community.

……

Carl has been sitting in the driver's seat for almost three hours. He didn't dare to drink water at all, worried that he would miss Keanu and the others when he went to the bathroom. If he was thirsty, he would just moisten his lips a little.

The sound of the radio in the car was a little weak, and the songs from the new album of the Backstreet Boys kept echoing in the car.

He was a little tired, rubbed his eyes with his hands, and stared at every car coming out of Melrose, they might be Keanu, "Don't stay at home all the time today, it's better to go out."

Perhaps God heard Carl's prayer, and within a few minutes, a Harley motorcycle sped out from the empty road.

He had already grasped Keanu's hobbies before shooting, and knew that his main hobby was riding a motorcycle, so he directly grabbed the camera and aimed at the driver in front of the car.

Although covered by a helmet and sunglasses, Carl has long kept Keanu's appearance in mind, and he can clearly see the appearance of that person under the camera, who is it not Keanu!

So Karl pressed the shutter desperately, regardless of the wear and tear of the film, not only wanted to take pictures of Keanu's handsome driving, but also the person behind him.

However, Karl can only see the back of Eve's head from this angle, knowing that there is a woman behind Keanu, but his head is facing the other side, and Eve's face is completely invisible!

"Shit!"

Carl cursed, threw the camera on the passenger seat, and quickly started the car to follow.

If you don't have a positive face, you can't sell it at a high price. Who knows who is behind Keanu, the news is naturally worthless.So he made up his mind that he must keep up and never be left behind.

The flexibility of a motorcycle is not comparable to that of a small truck. This is because Keanu did not increase his horsepower for safety reasons, nor did he run around, and complied with traffic rules.He is no longer alone, but two people, and he must be responsible for Eve's safety.

Even so, Carl had to go through two traffic lights before he followed closely, and he would never stop until he got a picture of Eve's face!

After a few kilometers, Keanu stopped in front of a small eight-storey building, while Carl quickly followed, and parked the car next to them without caring about exposing himself.

Roll down the car window with one hand, grab the camera with the other, and shoot right away!

He knew that he was the only paparazzi present at the moment, and if he could take a picture, he would not have to worry about everything.

Before Eve had time to get out of the back seat, she saw the paparazzi approaching her without any disguise. She frowned. She didn't expect that the first time she faced the paparazzi's pursuit would be in such a situation.

After Keanu helped her step on the ground, he quickly stepped off the motorcycle, stood in front of Eve, turned himself into a bodyguard, and said in a low voice, "Let's go, ignore him, let's go straight in."

Eve took off the helmet, lowered her head to avoid the flash, and quickly walked towards the lobby of MGM Pictures.

Carl was overjoyed, and he was clearly taking pictures, but he said, "Miss Campbell, can you take a look at the camera? Congratulations, I believe all movie fans will be happy for your relationship."

Faced with such a shameless paparazzi, Keanu, who has always been kind to others, had a rare cold face, blocking the camera with his hand, and didn't want to speak at all.

Being able to accurately call out Eve's name, it is obvious that this paparazzi knows them very well, and he didn't take a sneak shot just after meeting them now.

Carl had a happy face. Just now Keanu wanted to block the camera, but he kept changing his position, and still took a few pictures of Eve's face. Today's last order is basically confirmed!

After watching the two stars enter the MGM building, he took the camera, whistled excitedly and returned to the van, then began to check the photos he had taken, preparing to choose the few with the best results. Zhang sold to acquaintances.

Paparazzi also have professional ethics, and they are not willing to sell photos that are too blurry.

It's only morning, and if it's handed over to a newspaper or magazine, it will definitely not be published until tomorrow. If these two people are photographed by other colleagues, wouldn't all the efforts be in vain?

So Carl found out the phone number of Yahoo Entertainment editors from his phone. These paparazzi have not signed contracts with the media, so the photos can be flexibly sold to all media.

"Hi, this is Carl, the one who caught Douglas dating Catherine." As soon as the call was connected, he began to announce his family.

The person on the other end of the phone smiled, "It turned out to be you, so what are you calling me, Karl?"

"Hansen, I have an exclusive news in my hand, do you want it? The price is not cheap, don't talk to me if it is less than 10 US dollars."

Hansen, who was sitting in the office, immediately covered the phone receiver, lowered the volume and asked, "Whose exclusive?"

The prices of exclusive news from different celebrities are naturally different. If it's just Eve's love news, it may only occupy a small corner on the newspaper or website.

"Keanu Reeves' new relationship, his girlfriend is also an actress in Hollywood, and the momentum and attention is very good. I have a high-resolution photo of their face and a photo from the community to ride together. You go Discuss with Avelia, and I will hand over the negatives to you for $10. Be careful, you only have 5 minutes, or I will hand over to TMZ."

Even though Yahoo Entertainment is the leading online gossip website, TMZ is developing very fast, and Microsoft's MSN is also providing news services. It must be very cost-effective for such a top superstar's love exposure to only cost $10.

Hansen didn't pay much attention at first, but when he heard the photo was about Keanu and his girlfriend, he immediately said to Carl, "Wait a minute, I'll report right away, and I must not sell it to anyone else before I reply!"

"That might be the case. What if someone bids higher." Carl said jokingly, urging him non-stop.

Time was running out, Hansen hung up the phone cleanly, then quickly got up from his desk and rushed towards the editor-in-chief's office. He was just an ordinary editor and had no right to write a check for $10.

It's not just Yahoo Entertainment, any website has special spending settings in this area, otherwise there wouldn't be so many paparazzi in Hollywood.

"Avelia, a paparazzi called me and said that he had taken a high-definition frontal photo of Keanu Reeves' new relationship. The woman is also a Hollywood actress, but he asked for $10 to give an exclusive."

Avelia sitting in the office is a woman in her 40s, with a pair of black-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, she looks very shrewd, "Tell him to come to Yahoo immediately, and give the check after confirming the negatives."

There was no nonsense, and he acted resolutely, and approved it directly.

No matter which editor-in-chief it is, after hearing the name Keanu Reeves, they will agree to Carl's price.He is worth the price!

Hansen nodded, quickly went back and pressed the redial button, and waited anxiously.

"Hi, what does your editor-in-chief say?" Carl was already driving towards the Los Angeles editorial office of Yahoo Entertainment, but he was still waiting for a response.

"You come directly to our editorial department, make a deal after confirming that there is no problem, and sign an exclusive agreement at the same time."

Yahoo Entertainment's reputation in this area is still not a problem. It's impossible to break the rules because of a mere $[-]. Who would dare to do an exclusive deal with them at that time.

"Wait for me a few minutes."

……

In the lobby of MGM Pictures, the front desk lady had already received instructions. The two faces of Keanu and Eve were the passports. She smiled and said, "Miss Campbell, Mr. Reeves, this way please. Robert Owen You have been waiting here for a long time, sir."

"Thank you."

"Have a nice day."

The receptionist was full of surprise. She only knew that Eve was here to sign the contract, but she didn't expect Keanu to be by her side. They seemed like a couple in love.

When Robert saw Eve approaching, he stood up, pointed to the lawyer next to him and said, "You guys have met several times before, don't I need to introduce you?"

"No, every contract I have is reviewed by Lawyer Grove. Every time I see him, I know that I have a salary to be credited."

Eve jokingly said, she reached out and shook hands with Grove, not too unfamiliar.

"It has been an honor to provide legal services to Miss Campbell."

They were obviously a little surprised, but they didn't ask any questions.

When the four of them walked upstairs, Eve said in a low voice: "Robert, I have something to tell you. Just when we entered the building, a paparazzi took pictures of us. It is estimated that it will be exposed today or tomorrow." , you have to prepare in advance."

Robert's expression froze, his face was tense, but there was a trace of joy in his heart.

"Now I will call the publicist and Mr. Stove to communicate. We have thought about how to deal with it in advance. As long as the media and the public are not hostile to your relationship, then we will do nothing and wait for you to make an official announcement on the red carpet. Just do it."

There is no public relations pressure on Keanu's side. The pressure is all on Eve's side. She is the one with the weaker reputation and fewer fans among the two. If there are negative reviews, it must be directed at her.

Hollywood stars are actually very free to fall in love, there is no prohibition, and there is no pressure from the public or fans.Eve has done the best within her ability and can't ask for anything more.

Eve shook Keanu's hand and said, "Will you accompany me in, or wait outside for a while?"

"If it's not a commercial secret, I'll accompany you in."

He wanted to give MGM's producers an attitude that he was serious about Eve, and he couldn't treat her like an ordinary newcomer.

However, Keanu has forgotten that Eve is no longer weak at this time. She is already the heroine of a movie with a global box office of more than [-] million yuan, a Golden Globe nominee, and the absolute leading role of "Legal Blonde" , no one will sing against her.

The two producers, Mark and Rick, were very happy when they saw Keanu. The manager's words were indeed right. Eve doesn't seem to be a first-line actress yet, but the attention is about to skyrocket!

With a salary of 100 million US dollars and 5% of the North American box office dividend, you can invite an actor who is comparable to a first-line actress. Where can you find such a good thing?

The terms of the contract had been negotiated a long time ago, and Grove just came to review and see if there were any sneaky additions.

After confirming that it was correct, Eve wrote down her name on several contracts, and from now on she officially became the lead actor of "Legally Blonde".

"I hope we can cooperate happily."

"The movie will be a hit!"
