Chapter 122 The Award Effect
Eve and Keanu burst out laughing in the dark after no outsiders were really present.
Neither of them thought that they would get back the trophy when they attended the awards ceremony. Keanu has acted in science fiction movies and action movies for so long and has never gotten his hands on an award. Eve won it in the first year of filming.
"Let's eat first, I'm already fainting from hunger!"
It may be because she hasn't eaten for a long time, coupled with being overexcited, Eve felt a little dizzy, so she hurriedly put the trophy on the coffee table, for fear of hypotension.
Others think that after becoming a star, she can do whatever she wants, but now that Eve can feel a sense of happiness after taking a sip of Coke with ice, it is still worth it in the world.
She holds a hamburger in one hand and a Coke in the other. She is not as glamorous as on the red carpet, but has the feeling of a girl next door.
Keanu took a Polaroid and took a picture of his girlfriend biting the burger. He suppressed a smile: "Fans may be disappointed when they see this photo. You should be eating French food in this outfit."
Compared with well-known fast food chains such as KFC, McDonald's or Burger King, In-N-Out tastes very unique. There are few food choices on its menu, and all ingredients are the freshest.
100% beef patties baked on site, carefully selected, preservative-free lettuce, tomato and cheese, plus traditional fermented bread, you can feel the wonderful food in your mouth.
Eve is now wearing a long skirt and sitting on the carpet in front of the sofa. The overall image is not good at all.She put down the Coke, then stretched out her hand to pull her boyfriend down, and the two leaned against the bottom of the sofa together, "If you want to take pictures, we should take pictures together, not just me."
Keanu's long legs curled up in a small space with some difficulty. After finally sitting down, he held the camera in one hand and the hamburger in the other, making exaggerated bites of the hamburger. Don't need others to do it.
Since her boyfriend has worked so hard, Eve is not willing to admit defeat, and directly leans forward to take a bite of the double-layer beef burger in her boyfriend's hands, while keeping her own portion firmly by her side.
Polaroid kept spitting out the photos, and Keanu shook them vigorously. He was very happy. Eve's plasticity is really strong. Although there are some ferocious expressions, they don't look disgusting at all. , probably appearance is justice.
"If the brand knows what we look like, they will definitely regret lending us the clothes." Eve jokingly said, "It doesn't match the brand image they promote at all."
She suddenly looked down at her neck, and then said in surprise: "I seem to have done something stupid, now the staff of Cartier think I'm running away with a huge amount of jewelry, right?"
Just now Eve came back directly with Keanu, without contact with Robert at all. The two bodyguards of Cartier may still be waiting to return the jewelry to the warehouse for storage.
"Don't worry, the big deal is that I'll buy these jewels, they match you very well." Keanu looked rich and powerful, and he had the confidence to pay a high salary.
Eve quickly finished the hamburger, took two sips of Coke, and quickly went to the living room to find the phone. Her phone was still with the manager.
As soon as she dialed the phone, she heard her agent's furious voice: "Miss Campbell! Where are you now? Don't tell me you were hijacked by aliens."
"Sorry, Robert, I may be too hungry and too anxious to eat. I just remembered about the jewelry when I got home. Can you and them come directly to my house now?"
Her haute couture could wait, but jewelry couldn't; something worth millions of dollars had to be sent back immediately after the awards.
"Young lady, we are already heading towards the Melrose community. The doorman will call you later, and we will let you go." Robert was already so angry that he was about to explode, but the artist suddenly disappeared after the awards ceremony.
If it wasn't for his wit, he ran to ask the paparazzi if they had captured the newly-promoted Saturn Award actress, otherwise he would never have noticed that Eve got into Keanu's car and left.
Eve gave her boyfriend a very serious expression, and apologized repeatedly: "I'm really sorry, I forgot such an important thing, I promise I didn't do it on purpose."
"Okay, I'll be there right away. Let's talk later when we meet." Robert's own car has a community access certificate, but the car on the red carpet today is provided by the organizing committee and requires the owner's consent. Enter to ensure the safety and privacy of community residents to the greatest extent.
Putting down the phone, Eve quickly threw the hamburger wrapping paper into the trash can, preparing to destroy the evidence. Robert had always told her to pay attention to body management, and she usually listened to it.
"Robert is angry?" Keanu suggested, "or say I kidnapped you back. Even if he is angry, he won't lose his temper with me."
"Actually, it's okay, as long as my necklace remains intact, I think it will be difficult to find Cartier next time." Eve is in a good mood, and it is indeed her fault. She decided to give it to Cartier's flagship store tomorrow. He apologized with a bouquet of flowers.
Regardless of whether we can cooperate in the future, it is better to apologize sincerely.
"If the apology is useless, there will be other jewelry brands. Now that your popularity is getting higher and higher, there will definitely be jewelry companies willing to sponsor. As long as the things are intact and not damaged, Cartier should not care. You have helped the brand make enough money today The attention, it will definitely be reported in the news tomorrow, maybe there will be a fashion magazine that has already searched for the clothes and jewelry on her."
Soon, there was a phone call from the gate to confirm the visitor's information. After Eve answered truthfully, she saw a Lincoln of the same model parked in front of her house.
The driver remained motionless, and two bodyguards from the jewelry company and agent Robert got out of the car. Their expressions looked relaxed, not as serious as expected.
Eve opened the door, hugged the agent, and said proudly: "We did it!"
"Death is really good, but you have to focus on "Almost Famous" now, and the filming has already started so don't be distracted."
Robert was really angry at first. Eve didn't meet his agent after winning the award ceremony, but left with her boyfriend. He was a little worried that Eve would eventually switch to Evan Stoff's banner.
After all, I got Evan's guidance when I signed the contract with Eve. If she disliked that she couldn't get any good commercial film resources, that would be impossible!
Eve didn't know what was going on in her manager's head. She stood in front of two bodyguards and asked them to put on white gloves and carefully take off the necklace and earrings and put them in the box, and then carefully observed them with a magnifying glass under the light to make sure they were correct. Only then left.
Apparently she's not the only female celebrity to wear jewelry straight home, and the Cartier staff have long been familiar with it.
Robert looked at the two Saturn Awards trophies on the coffee table, and jokingly said, "It would be great if the Saturn Awards could be upgraded to Golden Globes or Oscars next year."
"Lower your goal, let's get nominated first." Eve sighed, "My performance in "Mulholland Drive" may be better than "Almost Famous", there is a lot of room for development, but it The previous shooting specifications are of the TV set, and no matter how high-quality this kind of converted product is, it will be ignored by the Oscar judges."
"Do you really have strong confidence in that movie?" Robert made up his mind and said, "I'll go see tomorrow if I can get that movie to abandon the previous shooting and reshoot it all in movie standards."
Eve is now a lot more nervous, "This will require a lot more investment. The movie itself is not the kind of movie that is known for its box office. If you don't pay attention, you will lose money and the pressure to return the capital will be great. ABC TV and Will the French production company agree?"
Keanu encouraged on the side: "How will you know if you don't try? The worst result is just to stay the same."
"Mr. Reeves is right. We just put this proposal up, and whether we agree or not depends on the evaluation of David Lynch and other investors."
"Then let go and try it!" Eve also put aside all scruples, at least if you try, you won't regret it in the future.
She didn't want to wait a few years or decades before recalling this movie, and felt all kinds of regrets and regrets in her heart.
Robert was satisfied when he got the authorization, "Then I wish you a happy evening, and I will call you if I have any news."
"Waiting for your good news, bye~"
After Eve sent her manager away, she picked up the mobile phone she had just returned. There were many congratulatory text messages and voice calls on it, and she didn't even have time to check it carefully.
"Finally we're the only ones left." Keanu embraced Eve from behind, rubbing the stubble on her ears deliberately, exhaling like blue.
For him, today should be the happiest and happiest day besides confessing his success.To be able to win an award with the one I love, I dare not even dream of it, but in reality, such a beautiful moment happens!
Eve felt a little itchy in her ears, which was one of her sensitive areas, and she was hugged tightly by her boyfriend as soon as she turned her head.
Anyway, there was no one else in the family, and they embraced and kissed very intently, trying to melt each other.
The Saturn trophy, which was so precious just now, was accidentally swept to the floor by Eve's skirt.
With a crisp sound, the trophy actually separated up and down!
They were clearly confused, but both of them were startled by the sound, and then they separated.
Eve squatted down to pick up the trophy. The upper part of Saturn and the Saturn ring were separated from the lower part of the trophy base. The workmanship did not look very good.
"Is this your trophy or mine?" Eve couldn't laugh or cry, she was so stupid that she was destroying her first trophy in her life.
The Oscar statuettes will engrave their names, but the Saturn Awards are not so particular.
Keanu smiled and said, "Do you have any glue at home? It's enough to stick it together. It's in the display case and no one knows it's damaged."
"I remember it seems to be there. I'll talk about it after I change this skirt. It's too inconvenient to move."
It was supposed to be a celebration of both winning awards, but unexpectedly it turned into a trophy repair night. This night of the award ceremony will really make their memories fresh.
……
Eve opened the blinds to allow the breeze to blow away the residual smell in the room. Wearing a set of casual clothes, she patted the shoulder of the sleeping man on the bed twice, and shouted, "Good morning, get up!"
"What time is it?"
Keanu was a little lazy. After fixing the trophy last night, he drank some champagne to celebrate. As a result, it seemed that he performed half the guitar performance for Eve in the room, and fell asleep without knowing when.
"It's already nine o'clock. Drink some water, and I'll put an effervescent tablet in it for you." Eve just brought a cup of hot water from the kitchen, and she really never expected Keanu to be so excited. Music is also very tiring.
"Thank you, you are so kind." Keanu looked at the bubbles popping out of the glass, and then drank the glass of water. He sat on the bed with some embarrassment, and wanted to delete the memory of last night Lose.
"I'm going out to shoot the cover of the magazine now. Originally, the Australian version of ELLE planned to shoot the cover in late January, but I must be busy with filming at that time, so I decided to shoot now ahead of schedule after a bit of arguing."
I don't know if it was the influence of Eve winning the Saturn Award for best actress last night. The person in charge of the Australian version of ELLE contacted Robert early this morning, planning to finish filming on the beach.
Anyway, ordinary readers can't tell whether it is the coast of California or the coast of Australia, and the photographer also wants to capture the characteristics of California's sunset and coast, so he will take pictures in one go until the sun sets in the evening before calling it a day.
This is Eve's first fashion magazine cover. Although it is not the American version, the Australian version of ELLE has a high status in the fashion circle. Almost every issue features supermodels and celebrities.
The 2000 opening cover of the Australian version of ELLE is the famous Nicole Kidman. Eve was found in the February issue, which shows that her popularity and popularity in Australia should not be too bad.
"Going out to work so early?" Keanu was a little bit reluctant, obviously sticking together for a long time, but felt that there was not enough time.
Eve showed off her watch, "It's getting late! If you're not feeling well today, don't go to the set, and sleep here for a while."
She woke up her boyfriend by not noticing the dark circles under his eyes, and now she has changed her mind.
"I'll go back and take a shower, change my clothes, and go to the set. I want to communicate with the director and the screenwriters." Keanu yawned. Let Fu win a few more awards together, or be nominated.
"Why don't you take a break and let's go together tomorrow? Fortunately, you didn't force yourself into the music industry, otherwise I think you will definitely fail. You should do your best in the film industry."
Fortunately, each villa is a little far apart, otherwise Keanu would be reported to the police by the neighbors!
"A little overexcited."
The sound of "beep beep beep" car horns sounded in the front yard of the villa. After waving to her boyfriend, Eve hurriedly left with her bag in her hand, finishing these chores early so that she could concentrate on filming "Almost Famous".
Keanu fell straight down, dragged the quilt over his head, and planned to sleep for a while, anyway, there were clothes and toiletries here.
Recently, he often came to Eve's house to live in. Like ants moving house, he brought a little thing with him every time, and quietly invaded Eve's bathroom, dressing table and large wardrobe.
If you make it too obvious, you will definitely be discovered. This approach is very reliable. Eve didn't realize that there were many Keanu's things and life traces in her home, and perhaps she had accepted it subtly.
Robert temporarily replaced Mandy's position. He watched Eve trot over and asked curiously, "Keanu lives in your house again?"
"Of course, he played the guitar too late last night, so he stayed here." Eve didn't realize that she was helping to find a reason: "The street lights are too dim, and it's not safe to ride a bicycle or walk back."
"Well, you are living together." Robert said with a happy face, pointing to a stack of newspapers in front of the passenger seat: "Yesterday, your exposure and attention were higher than the Saturn Award itself!"
"Why am I not surprised at all? It's totally a matter of course."
From the red carpet session last night, Eve and Keanu became the subject of heated discussions on the Internet, and then Eve was dazed when she won the award, Keanu embraced affectionately, blew kisses to celebrate after the acceptance speech, and the two backstage carried The trophy interview and photo shoot, every link made the fans extremely excited!
Before the Oscars were announced, there were so many stars attending the awards ceremony, and they took home two important awards, and they took them with their boyfriends/girlfriends. There is no other word to describe them except winners in life.
The search volume of the name Eve Campbell on the Internet is constantly increasing, and more and more people know her. Everyone has a good impression of her, a humorous young and capable actor.
The number of hits on related news and photos soared, and the number of posts on the fake official website and forums established by fans for her also exploded, not to mention the film schedule and attendance rate.
What I regret the most now is Columbia Pictures. Eve had a good reputation in the awards season, but in order to secure the nomination of Gelina Jolie, he didn't help Eve with the final Oscar public relations.
As a result, "The Girl Who Moved Soul" is now at the box office of more than 3000 million US dollars in North America, and Eve, the third female, has at least half of the box office and attention.
If Eve had known that Eve's fame was still increasing, Columbia would have done everything she could to help her get an Oscar nomination for a supporting actress, and maybe the movie's box office would have been even higher!
Now they are very envious of "Death Comes"'s box office and disc revenue. These two items add up to more than 3 million US dollars in revenue, and they can still make sequels to continue to make money. It is a pure cash cow!
The Australian version of ELLE is willing to cooperate with the corresponding timeline because of her amazing popularity. Everything is based on Eve’s time. It happens that the photographer, makeup artist and stylist can all be found in Los Angeles, so shooting is not a problem at all.
Those brands heard that Eve was going to shoot the cover of a fashion magazine, and they were all willing to hand over their latest show clothes to her, and let her perform wonderfully in the magazine.
In the stack of newspapers in front of her, the headlines in the entertainment section were almost all photos of her and Keanu holding a cup, the photos took up more space than the text below!
Hollywood has not seen such a powerful and well-established star couple for a long time, even before Tom - Crusu and Nicole - Kidman, Matt - Damon and Winona - Ryder, Gwyneth - Paltrow and Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, their relationship has been announced for a long time, and there has been little movement recently.
Even if the attention is not as good as the gimmick of male and female friends winning awards at the same time, none of the above-mentioned couples have achieved this!
What's more, the relationship between Eve and Keanu still has a romantic and Cinderella feeling, and now Cinderella has gradually become a princess.
"MGM is really lucky. If the current level of attention is so high, the box office and film salary will have to increase. A mere $100 million is not enough. It will take $500 million and 5% of the North American box office share!"
Robert was a little brooding. At the time, he really didn't expect Eve to win the award, and he didn't expect that not only would she win the award, but her attention would double. Only God knows how many times.
At least her face has been deeply ingrained in the minds of entertainment gossip lovers in Hollywood and even the world. It is impossible to recall the specific appearance after saying the name.
Eve reassured: "Don't think so much, it's our own miscalculation, and besides, 5% of the North American box office dividend may not be a small amount."
"I suggest that you don't take on new projects for the time being, and wait for us to digest the projects in hand, otherwise this situation will happen again."
Robert knew that Eve had no shortage of Austrian movies or low-budget commercial films, but what he lacked was big-budget commercial productions.
There are less than ten A-level productions in Hollywood in a year, and now basically only films with an investment of more than 8000 million US dollars can be called A-level productions.After more than ten or twenty years, this standard will rise to US$20 million or US$1 million.
However, the investment in the "X-Men" that Eve auditioned for was only 7500 million US dollars, and this is definitely an A-level movie, not a B-level movie.
In Hollywood, B-grade movies are basically small and medium-budget movies, and they will always be labeled as inferior and inferior. To describe a blockbuster movie as a B-grade movie means that the film is poorly produced and has garbage special effects.
But there are also some B-level films that are well-produced and will accomplish small feats, such as "Death Comes" is the best example.
When Keanu achieved great success through "Speed", the media all said that he had stepped out of his B-movie era.
Robert is definitely not willing to let Eve act in a B-level movie, but act as the heroine in an A-level production.If you want to be a supporting actress, you don't have to wait so long, you can easily find one with CAA's ability.
Just as Eve was reading the report about herself in the newspaper, her cell phone rang, and when she took it out, she realized it was David Lynch!
"David's call should be about Mulholland Drive." Eve told the agent about the situation.
Robert said: "I briefly sorted out your proposal yesterday, and then wrote a feasibility report and sent it. He may be talking about this matter."
Eve nodded, and after keeping the situation in mind, she connected the phone.
"Good morning, this is David, did I disturb your rest?" David Lynch on the other side of the phone stared at the computer screen in a daze, and the email in the e-mail made him restless for a long time.
"No, I'm on my way from work on the beach in Santa Monica, the sun is shining, another day of California sunshine."
"That's good. Just now I opened the mailbox and saw the message from your agent. The idea of reshooting "Mulholland Drive" is very interesting. I want to know what you think about it?"
Eve thought about it for a moment, and answered truthfully: "I think "Mulholland Drive" is a very good story, but if the material shot on the film of the previous TV drama standard is used, there will definitely be problems and differences during the screening, and there will be problems. It becomes a place for critics or media criticism. If we can find enough investment, the reshoots will be more refined and complete."
"I don't care what the film critics think!" David Lynch was a little annoyed, "That group of people are blood-sucking bugs who depend on us for a living."
"What about the views and opinions of the audience?" Eve knew that she was a layman, unable to truly devote herself to film art, and unable to become a real artist.
If you increase the cost and reshoot, you will have the opportunity to obtain higher box office revenue and returns, and be able to participate in the competition during the awards season.
David Lynch is also not an artist. He opened his own production company and has made TV and movies. He is very clear about the disadvantages of remaking movies from TV dramas.
People in the movie industry are very proud, no matter how good the movie is, they will not give such a TV movie a high evaluation or award.
Now it's just a daily blunt.
"Switching to film-size film will not affect the artistry of the film, and we can use the opportunity of reshoots to make up for what was not done well in the previous shooting. Whether it is actors or crew After reading the previous content, the progress will definitely be much faster. Costumes and props can be reused, and the cost is actually not too high.”
"So a total investment of 2000 million U.S. dollars is required, and it is difficult for ABC TV to agree."
"How do you know if you don't try? Maybe the combined worth of the two of us should make them agree to invest more." Eve said confidently. Right now is the time when she gets the most attention, and ABC TV is broadcasting her You should be very clear about the weight of the two of you.
