Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty Perfect Characters
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
The spotlights were lit in the carefully arranged small studio. A pair of young men and women wearing only close-fitting underwear posing intimate shapes under the command of the photographer. Sometimes they sat back to back, sometimes women snuggled in the man's arms, sometimes hugged and whispered, and sometimes looked at each other affectionately...
The two best bodies in the world are placed here to shoot the latest underwear advertisement for Armani.
Gisele Bonchen is very professional. As a top figure among the new generation of models, such a job cannot defeat her at all. Instead, Matthew occasionally makes some mistakes, after all, he is not professional.
After shooting one set, Matthew and Gisele Bonchen went to the locker room to change another set, and then came out to continue shooting.
Since the video advertisement was filmed two days ago, the last day was mainly filmed with print advertisements.
This underwear advertisement seems particularly erotic, but when it is actually shot, it is a bit boring. Not to mention Matthew, a non-professional person, even Giselle Bonchen, they often follow the photographer's instructions.
Of course, the work itself is boring, but when wearing the thinnest and shortest clothes, the two people at work are in high spirits.
When the last set of underwear was filmed, Matthew and Gisele Bonson walked into the same locker room, and the door of the locker room slammed and closed.
No one in the studio was surprised, and it seemed to be commonplace.
“The modeling circle is already more chaotic than Hollywood.”
On the plane back to Los Angeles, Helen Hermann looked at the very few first class cabin and said to Matthew next to him, "You'd better be careful and be careful of getting sick."
She specifically reminded, "Don't forget Jessica Alba."
Matthew covered the blanket sent by the flight attendant, "It's no small matter, I've always taken safety measures." He shrugged and said, "I called Jesse specifically. She went to see a gynecology that day, and was photographed by paparazzi. In order to sell the photos to the tabloids, she randomly arranged her."
Helen Hermann turned to look at Matthew, "Do you believe it?"
"I would rather believe Jessica Alba." Matthew said frankly, "not believe in the tabloids."
Not to mention entertainment gossip tabloids, even large North American entertainment newspapers such as Variety Show and Hollywood Reporter will also make a splash. Moreover, the two media have always been famous for selling covers and pages. When the awards season comes, Variety Show and Hollywood Reporter will give out many pages in each issue and brag about the films that compete for awards seasons. These are all charged by the page.
Yesterday, Helen Hermann also asked in the studio, "What are you going to do when Giselle Bonchen was chasing you?"
"I'll make her happy." Matthew told the truth.
Helen Hermann's face remained unchanged, "I don't think so."
Matthew tightened his blanket and said, "This is the reason for one thing, but on the other hand..." He thought about the words, "Giselle Bonchen wants a stable relationship, and may also want a marriage in the future."
"I heard her mention Victoria and Beckham," Helen Hermann said.
"Well..." Matthew recalled the scene at that time and continued, "She wants a stable relationship, but the partner she is dating must not be an ordinary person. That is contrary to her future career plan. She needs a boyfriend who is rich, famous and can match her in appearance."
He stretched out his finger and nodded his forehead, "I am rich, famous, handsome and beautiful enough..."
Helen Hermann was already used to Matthew's cheekyness.
Matthew was arrogant, "In addition, I'm not the one who doesn't like it. On the contrary, I'm very useful. So, Giselle Bonchen thinks you can try to date me."
Helen Hermann just thought about it briefly and understood what Matthew said, "Beckham and Victoria are indeed examples of success in 1+1 far greater than 2. No wonder Gisele Bonchen threatened Heidi Krum in Victoria's Secret, and he was indeed a smart woman."
Matthew smiled, "As far as I understand, she wants to be Beckham and Victoria of America with me."
"You can consider it." Helen Hermann said directly, "You are now the first movie star born in Hollywood after the 1980s. Gisele Bonson is the best among the new generation of female models. Your light will be as bright as the sun."
"Forget it, let's forget about this." Matthew shook his head slowly, "This is what she urgently needs, not what I need."
Helen Hermann was just a suggestion, and seeing that Matthew had no intention at all, he would not mention this matter again.
Matthew's idea is very simple. If Giselle Bonchen is willing to exchange physical skills with him, he welcomes him with both hands and talks about feelings, then forget it.
He was not even thirty years old, so he didn't have to hurry to stabilize himself, or tie himself to death on a pillar.
When it comes to feelings, if you have a fixed girlfriend, you must be responsible for each other. This is too early for Matthew.
Helen Hermann shifted the topic to the main business and said, "I have met with George Armani and several senior executives of Armani. As long as your underwear endorsement effect this time can meet expectations, there is hope that after the contract of Armani men's ready-to-wear spokesperson expires, there will be hope to replace it."
Matthew asked, “Who is the spokesperson for Armani men’s ready-to-wear now?”
"George Clooney," Helen Hermann said plainly, "a person who relies on politics to make style."
Matthew has never dealt with George Clooney, and it is not clear what is going on.
Helen Hermann also said, "His contract is still some time, and we can slowly plan it. Among the current first-tier luxury men's ready-to-wear brands, the endorsement contract between Armani and George Clooney is closest to expiration, which is why I have been seeking Armani."
She suddenly thought of something, "It is said that George Clooney and Brad Pitt are best friends."
"Brad Pitt?" Matthew thought about it, "I haven't heard this name for a long time."
Helen Hermann nodded slightly, "After the last incident, he was bombarded by public opinion and was already transforming into the behind-the-scenes." She told the truth, "Hollywood is not a moral circle. As long as there are good works, it is not difficult to clean up the stain."
Matthew fully agrees with this.
"Let's talk about George Clooney." Helen Hermann didn't talk much about Brad Pitt, he was already left behind by Matthew. "He can be said to be one of the most successful Hollywood male stars."
Turning his head to look at Matthew, she said, "Not under you. George Clooney is known as the perfect male god, which is also an important reason why he can always serve as the endorsement of Armani men's ready-to-wear."
Matthew nodded, "You should find a way to find a way to make such a headache."
George Clooney is also a first-line star. Even if he relies on politics to highlight style, he has successful works as a foundation.
Helen Hermann said calmly, "I've been thinking of a way."
The two were silent for a while, and Matthew couldn't sleep for a while, and asked again, "Helen, you just talked about selling characters. Is it me the most successful person in the entire entertainment industry?"
"You are too arrogant to yourself," Helen Hermann said lightly, "You are far inferior to some people."
"For example?" asked Matthew.
Helen Hermann said casually, "There is a woman who is perfect and truly conquered the whole United States. She was a black man who was strong when she was young, and later became a strong and independent queen. She became a talk show queen. Then she entered the business world and became a boss.
Needless to say, Matthew knew who she was referring to, “Opra Winfrey?”
Helen Hermann nodded slightly, "The last person in the entertainment industry who sold such a perfect character and was so successful may be traced back to Audrey Hepburn."
"Goddess." Matthew sighed.
Whether it is photos, movies, or various reports, Audrey Hepburn is so perfect, and he is definitely the goddess in his heart.
Unfortunately, I was not born in the same era.
Any star has black spots, and even he is no exception. From the beginning to the present, there are countless gossip reports of his private life.
But whether there are black spots or not has no direct relationship with whether they are popular in Hollywood or even respected.
Back in Los Angeles, Matthew went to meet David Ellison again. David Ellison still didn't make up his mind. After all, it's not worth it to try to exchange for the copyright of a cut movie like "The Three Hundred Warriors" to the "Fast and Furious" series.
David Ellison did not refuse, but went to conduct relevant market research, and his influence had played a huge role.
If the films starring were not successful continuously and were super profitable, giving people the impression that they had unique features in choosing films, it would be impossible to impress David Ellison.
This kind of thing is not urgent, and urgency may have the opposite effect.
If it weren't for not having that much money himself, and intervening might cause unknown effects, the risk was a bit high, Matthew wanted to buy it himself.
However, he knew that this was a very stupid idea. If he bought the copyright from Universal Pictures, he might need to spend all his working capital and borrow it from the bank. If he didn't do it well, he would go bankrupt.
Pulling David Ellison to share the risks is the best choice.
After talking to David Ellison, Matthew paid a little attention to DreamWorks. Helen Hermann has started formal negotiations with the Transformers crew. This kind of work of using dubbing to make quick money is often done by Hollywood big-name stars. It takes a short time, but it earns millions of dollars. Even if the film fails, it will basically not have a negative impact.
Of course, Helen Hermann opened the lion's mouth again and made a 10 million dollar offer.
