Best of Hollywood

Chapter 105: Frank

Ryan stepped forward, stood in front of Michael Ovitz, and said unceremoniously: "First of all, Mr. Michael Ovitz, it seems that you have not officially joined Disney and cannot interfere with the normal business of Touchstone. The termination of Touchstone's cooperation is nothing more than changing a partner."

He had recognized it a long time ago. The person in front of him was Michael Ovitz, the controller of CAA. It seemed that he might join Disney this year and become the president of Disney.

"By the way, there is another point. I need to clarify that as long as it can get enough box office, I don't think there is anything wrong with horror movies."

For Hollywood studios, box office and profits are everything.

"Box office!" Michael Ovitz's face was a little ugly. He really had nothing to say about the box office.

"Occasional success doesn't mean anything. Some people are destined to be eliminated by Hollywood." Michael Ovitz took a deep breath and said very meanly.

"But I think, at least for a long time, it will still be in Hollywood."

Facing the aggressive Michael Ovitz, Ryan would naturally not be polite, "If I remember correctly, it seems that I have received the so-called caa kindness a while ago, a very boring kindness."

"I hope that Mr. Michael Ovitz will not show any kindness next time."

Michael Ovitz's face was flushed, his eyes gradually widened, and he pointed at Ryan, "You will realize the existence of CAA sooner or later, not everyone can be insulted, you will pay the price for today's words."

Ryan was indifferent, he couldn't speak in a low voice, anyway, he had offended caa not once or twice, not bad this time.

"The price!" Ryan smiled slightly, "Even if I leave Hollywood immediately, I can still enjoy a luxurious life."

"I don't lack money, and I don't care about the so-called price."

"Very good." Michael Ovitz was almost furious to the extreme, "You will soon see the price of insulting CAA, I promise, you will definitely lose everything."

Before he could finish the rest, someone interrupted him, "Enough, Michael."

"This is a dinner held by Vanity Fair." Frank Pearson walked over and reminded.

"Frank!" Seeing the person coming, Michael Ovitz narrowed his eyes, gave Ryan a cold look, turned around and left without saying anything.

Seeing this, Frank Pearson showed a slight smile? He said to Ryan and Monica Bellucci, "Unexpected? We will meet here."

"It's even more surprising that you are a director."

"Perhaps? We can actually introduce."

"Frank-Pearson? You can call me Frank, or old Frank."

Frank Pearson!

If Ryan remembers correctly, the Frank Pearson in front of him is not only the old Jewish man he saw at the exhibition last time.

At the same time, the most critical point? His name is Frank Pearson, and he was the chairman of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in his previous life.

Perhaps many people are relatively unfamiliar with the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, but the Academy Awards are awarded by this academy, which has more than 6,000 professional or senior people in the film industry.

This shows the influence of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

Of course, there is another identity that makes Michael Ovitz scruples? An old Jewish man who has experienced the suffering of World War II and has extensive contacts in American Jewish circles.

"Ryan Gosling? A film director."

"Monica Bellucci, an actress from Italy."

The introduction of the two is very simple.

Actually? Frank Pearson, he already knew the identities of the two? Otherwise, he would not have stepped forward to make a rescue.

Frank Pearson said very sincerely: "I am very sorry for my words that day."

"I will keep my promise that day? Tell all the Jews about Mr. He Fengshan's deeds, and at the same time invite Mr. He Fengshan to go to Israel to give a public speech on his deeds."

This is not just talking casually. For this reason, he specifically asked many old people who had experienced World War II, and even found He Fengshan himself, and saw the diary he wrote back then.

"Mr. Frank, I just stated a fact that day." Ryan was very modest.

Maybe the current Frank Pearson can't affect the Oscars, but when he becomes the chairman of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, he can definitely affect the Oscars.

"Young people don't have to be so humble." Frank Pearson laughed happily, "As an apology, if you need help, you can contact me at any time."

"For example, Michael Ovitz, that arrogant guy, is very likely to take up the post of Disney this year, and terminate your cooperation project with Touchstone."

"However, I can ask William, the guy who only makes horror movies, to introduce Shirley to you."

After speaking, Frank Pearson remembered that Ryan in front of him seemed to be a horror film director, and his expression became a little embarrassed.

"It's my honor to know Mr. William and Ms. Shirley." Ryan was somewhat surprised. If he guessed correctly, William and Shirley are definitely one of the top Hollywood figures.

"Next, it should belong to the young people's night." After a brief conversation and leaving contact information for each other, Frank Pearson said goodbye, turned and walked towards the distance.

"Michael Ovitz is as arrogant and domineering as the rumors say."

Monica Bellucci on the side, who was worried just now, could finally breathe a sigh of relief and asked, "It seems that Frank is very influential!"

"Don't underestimate any Jewish old man, you said it." Ryan held her hand slightly loosely, and explained: "William Friedkin once directed "The Exorcist", and was Known as one of the scariest films in film history, and won an Oscar for Best Director for his film "The French Drug Network."

"Of course, this is not the most important thing. His wife, Ms. Shirley Lansing, is actually the chairman of Paramount Pictures."

A woman who ran Paramount for thirteen years.

Having said that, Ryan glanced at the time and did not continue the topic, "So next, don't worry about Michael Ovitz, we can go shopping."

Until this moment, Monica Bellucci was still in shock, and after a long while, she said to herself, "Chairman of Paramount!"

"It seems that what I said is very correct. Don't underestimate any old Jewish man."

Monica Bellucci calmed down a bit, completely relieved, and glanced at the crowd in the distance, "I need to go over and say hello."

Ryan followed her gaze ~lightnovelpub.net~ and happened to see Winona Ryder, one of the losers tonight, "Do you know Winona Ryder?"

"We met during the filming of "Four Hundred Years of Vampire Zombies", so I'm not familiar." Monica Bellucci withdrew her gaze, her tone was very flat, "However, since we met, it's better to say hello."

Ryan nodded subconsciously, probably another war between women.

Winona Ryder in the distance had already seen Monica Bellucci in full dress, and she seemed to have an ugly expression.

At the awards ceremony just now, not only did she lose a chance, but she was obviously not in a good mood when she met that damned **** again.

"That's right..." She cursed in a low voice, "It's that damned bitch."

In order to star in "Four Hundred Years of Vampire Zombies", she specially got a relationship with Francis Ford Coppola, an Italian model who can only show off.

Now she even got mixed up with her in a banquet hall, and even just got a very good role, a project invested by 20th Century Fox, with a budget of up to 75 million US dollars.

After the release of "Four Hundred Years of Vampire Zombies", many media unanimously praised the vampire bride played by Monica Bellucci, who is famous for her beauty and temptation.

It is very embarrassing for Winona Ryder, who is the leading actress.

However, the Italian model, who could only rely on relationships and coquettishness, is about to star in a major commercial production.

Looking at herself again, several years have passed since the filming of "Four Hundred Years of Vampire Zombie", but she has never been given the opportunity to act in a major commercial production.

Winona-Ryder found sadly that maybe it won't be long before the coquettish Italian model back then will soon be on an equal footing with her.
