[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 291

Many people may not know that MGM is actually a company listed on Nasdaq, and its stock price has been falling recently.

Shareholders have long been dissatisfied with management, and the falling stock price has hurt them badly.

Due to the Christmas holiday, the Nasdaq market will be closed from December 12rd to 23th, and will resume normal operation on the 25th.

Originally, the market was not good, and MGM’s performance was not good. The stock price had dropped from US$2000 at the beginning of 19.1 to US$12.5, and the lowest fell to US$8.6.

Now the box office of "Legal Blonde" has been released on the first day, which is a great salvation for MGM, which has been losing money all year round.

Even with Tom Hanks' "Cast Away" sniping, "Legal Blonde" is making a lot of money.

During the Christmas period, Eve's movie will definitely usher in a period of high box office, which may affect the stock price at that time.

If the stock price rise is tied to the movie box office, then MGM will definitely realize the great value of Eve.

Evan Storf has already thought about it, and when the time comes, let the media lead a wave of rhythm, let the audience imagine what the new Bond girl will look like, and what kind of actress will play it.

Don't say Eve's name directly, otherwise it will be too deliberate and the effect will not be good.

At that time, the media and the audience will definitely make a list of these actresses, and each has their own preferences. Eve has just cooperated with MGM, so she will definitely be given priority.

At the same time, the CAA side will make more appropriate inquiries, such as informal letters, just click to the end.

There is still a certain difference between the role you go to get on your own and the role someone else tailor-made for you.

The 007 series of movies was originally adapted according to the same name. Starting from the first "Casino Royale", the original author Ian Fleming wrote a total of 13 films, and another author Raymond Benson named James Bond. With Germany as the protagonist, he continued to create some, and the subsequent films were all brand-new scripts created based on the original works.

In other words, the latest "Bond 20" actually only has a code name, and the detailed script has not yet been created. This also gives CAA a room to operate, and it is truly tailor-made.

In the final analysis, the agency's purpose is to make money, so Evan and Robert both know that next year will be the year when Eve's business performance will explode.

Now Eve's popular movies are all small and big, and she hasn't really participated in any commercial blockbusters. A few seconds of guest appearances in "X-Men" don't count.

CAA now wants to push Eve to test the waters in commercial blockbusters. Only commercial films can make the company make money and make her a big star.

Going to the Olympics is just a shortcut to becoming a big star, and it is the most direct way for an actress to be promoted to a celebrity.

Speaking of it, both Evan and Robert are still very annoyed. If I had known that "Mulholland Drive" was still so popular after half a year of silence, and could still be remembered by film critics and judges, it must be because of that movie. Do PR.

Without public relations, you can get a bunch of nominations for the Film Critics Association and Screen Actors Guild Awards. If you have strong public relations, you may become a strong opponent for Julia Roberts.

Such a good movie is hard to come by, and they are also paying attention to see if there is any good script that can help Eve consolidate her reputation as an acting school, but it seems a bit tricky at the moment.

……

Eve didn't know that she had the opportunity to play a real agent. She stayed up too late last night to wait for word of mouth, so she couldn't get up in the morning at all.

At noon, if it wasn't for Snoopy lying on the bedside and licking her palm with his tongue, he might have to sleep until the afternoon.

"My head is a bit confused after sleeping for a long time. I think I need a cup of black coffee to wake me up."

She yawned, then got up from the bed, grabbed a thin coat and put it on, and walked downstairs.

Going down the winding stairs, Eve saw her boyfriend sitting on the sofa in the living room, crossing his legs and reading the newspaper, with the British black tea in his hand.

Keanu, who was reading the newspaper, turned his head and looked over when he heard the voice, and greeted with a smile, "You've finally woken up. If you don't wake up again, I'm going to go up and wake you up."

Eve pointed to Snoopy who was following behind her, "It probably woke me up because it saw me sleeping for too long."

"Would you like something to eat? The refrigerator at home is a bit empty. Let me make you a sandwich with fried eggs and ham." Keanu usually doesn't have the time or opportunity to cook at all, and making sandwiches is basically the pinnacle of cooking.

"You are so kind." Eve went over and kissed her boyfriend, "Let's go to the kitchen together."

Although it is a simple food, it is more delicious than a Michelin chef under the affection of the two.

After lunch, Keanu suggested: "We're leaving for Alaska tomorrow, but we haven't bought a lot of things to avoid the cold and keep warm. Let's go shopping after a short rest. You can't go directly without preparing anything. That would freeze to death."

Eve and Keanu were very busy a few days ago, and now they have only had a week of rest during the Christmas holidays. While washing the dishes, she said, "It's time to go buy equipment. Do you know what you need to buy?"

The two of them will not go camping in the wild, one is too cold, and the other is not safe.

Anyway, I have already rented a cabin through a travel agency. I usually go out to see the scenery with the tour guide, and I will not act alone.

They are already adults, and this kind of potentially life-threatening behavior will not be done casually.

Keanu took out a piece of paper from the pocket of his flight jacket, which was filled with all kinds of equipment needed.

Eve took it over and took a look, and found that the variety was very complete, including warm clothing, down jackets for wind and rain, and waterproof pants and boots.

In this way, when you are rolling in the snow, you don't have to worry about your clothes being soaked by the melting snow.

There are even hats, scarves, gloves, baby warmers, thermos bottles, headlamps, batteries, satellite phones, diapers, etc. in the list, and the preparations are extremely full.

To see the aurora once, you really need a lot of equipment, not counting the photography equipment. Some brands of cameras can’t start when it’s too cold, so you have to choose the right ones.

Eve's favorite thing is shopping, and she's going shopping with her boyfriend in a fair way, which makes the feeling even better!

She quickly packed up her things, put on a pair of flat shoes and went to the garage.

The underground garages of mansions are different from before. More than a dozen cars can be parked inside, and the space is so empty that echoes can appear.It's just that neither Eve nor Keanu is a person who likes luxury cars, so it looks empty.

While starting the vehicle, Keanu planned and said: "I plan to tidy up and decorate the underground garage, so that I can bring the motorcycles I collected and settle them down."

"I have no objection. It's vacant anyway. As long as you reserve a parking space for me." Eve said thoughtfully, she knew her boyfriend's hobbies.

Now that he has been restricted from drag racing, don't object to collecting motorcycles.

After hearing what his girlfriend said, Keanu became much happier. He only has such a few hobbies, and it is best not to have conflicts.

Although he had only moved here not long ago, because he had lived in a hotel near Beverly Hills before, he knew the surrounding roads and terrain well, and he went directly to the center of Los Angeles without looking at a map or asking.

"By the way, has the box office of my movie come out?" Eve suddenly remembered this matter, and fell asleep relatively happily after seeing the word-of-mouth last night, and only now remembered this important matter.

Keanu pointed to the newspaper in front of the passenger seat, and said, "It's out, just fold the page in the newspaper in front. Congratulations, "Legally Blonde" is a box office hit!"

Eve was very surprised, "Is it true? I'll see."

Subconsciously, she knew the name of this movie and knew it was an inspirational classic, but after putting it on herself, she couldn't help thinking about it.

Picking up the newspapers in front of her, Eve immediately found the folded page of the Los Angeles Times.

As a result, she gasped from the beginning of the title!

I was mentally prepared because of Keanu's words, but I never expected that "Legal Blonde" would explode to such an extent.

"Friday's box office is released, Tom Hanks' "Cast Away" vs. Eve Campbell's "Legal Blonde" is tight! "

[Christmas schedule is here as scheduled, and there are four new films released during the Christmas holiday, the most eye-catching one being "The Rest of a Deserted Island".Tom Hanks, two-time Oscar winner, and Robert Zemeckis, the director of "Forrest Gump", collaborated again, and Oscar winner Helen Hunt joined in to help out, telling the story of the modern version of Robinson Crusoe .

The investment of "The Rest of a Deserted Island" reached as high as 9000 million U.S. dollars. On the first day of its release, it won the Friday box office championship with a score of 1175 million U.S. dollars, narrowly beating the 1098 million U.S. dollars of "Legally Blonde".

The young actress Eve Campbell continues to shine brightly. After "Almost Famous", she once again hit the box office champion. "Legal Blonde" tells the story of the blonde girl Ellie who was broken up by her boyfriend because of prejudice and decided to enter Harvard University to save her. The boyfriend's heart finally proved with practical actions that he is definitely not a vase story.

The film has a good reputation, and the story is fascinating and witty.With an investment of only 2400 million U.S. dollars, Eve Campbell once again achieved greatness with a small amount, showing her unparalleled box office appeal among young people!

Last week's box office champion "I Know Women's Hearts" slipped to No.3 this week. It was significantly impacted by the new film, and it closed at $612 million on Friday, with a total of $5469 million in North America for two weeks after its release...]

The hand holding the newspaper trembled slightly, Eve raised her head and glanced at her boyfriend who was driving, her voice distorted: "The box office on the first day is so high, and there is even a chance to compete for the weekend box office champion, this world is too crazy Bar!"

That's Tom Hanks!

From the perspective of the lineup, the gap between the two films seems to be too great, but the difference in the box office on the first day is less than one million. It is really unknown who will win.

"Honey, you read that right, everyone really likes this movie and you too." Keanu said proudly.

Eve breathed a sigh of relief, "Now that I know the box office has exploded, I'm starting to get nervous again, and I'm starting to worry about whether I can win the championship in the first weekend. I'm really a little greedy."

"It's a normal thought. If my movie is only a little bit short of reaching the top, I will keep praying."

The author has something to say: I haven't called for nutrient solution for a long time, let's irrigate it~~~

There is another chapter in the evening, and the daily [-]D breaks out on weekends.
