"Congratulations, Director Stanton..."

"Murphy, I didn't expect you to be so young."

In the open-air banquet hall, since everyone toasted and celebrated, Murphy kept coming to greet people around him, including the executives of Fox Searchlight, the producers of the 20th Century Fox film department, the editor-in-chief of media magazines, and Some brokers.

Each of them had a bright smile on their faces, and their words were sweeter than honey.

Even Murphy, in the midst of such compliments, was a little airy, and felt that he had really become a big shot.

If you change to another person of the same age, you may no longer know where you are, but Murphy is intoxicated and intoxicated, and there is enough reason and sobriety in his heart.

He knew that now was just the beginning, not the peak. There was still a long way to go on this road, and there was no time to stop and enjoy.

Godin Clyde had just left Murphy and was about to greet the people of 20th Century Fox. When passing by the long dining table with food, a big fat man suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Hello, Harvey." Godin Clyde certainly recognized Harvey Weinstein's fat face, "I didn't expect you to come too."

Harvey Weinstein smiled, "Congratulations, Godin, made a good deal."

"You are too polite." Godin Clyde smiled brilliantly. "This is the luck of the Fox Searchlight, and it can offer conditions that satisfy Stanton's studio."

The relationship between the two parties is competitive, and he will naturally not speak politely, "I also want to thank you, Harvey. If it weren't for Miramax's demanding conditions, this box office..."

Godin Clyde emphasized, "This film with a box office of 60 million dollars will not be released by Fox Searchlight."

Harvey Weinstein's fat face was a bit ugly, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he said, "I admit, I missed it and underestimated Murphy Stanton's ability."

"We didn't underestimate Murphy, we have been firmly supporting him." Godin Clyde is like telling the truth, "So Fox Searchlight is the winner now."

He laughed a few times, then said a few more polite words, and walked away directly.

Looking at Godin Clyde's back, Harvey Weinstein looked up and drank the wine in his hand, then turned and walked towards Murphy.

He knew that he had made a mistake, and although he would never admit it in his mouth, he would correct it in private.

If a director's small-cost production can win a high return, it may be luck. What about twice? It can't be explained by luck.

Just like Quentin Tarantino, "Falling Dog" gave him an interest in investing, and "Pulp Fiction" fully proved the ability of a director!

Although Murphy Stanton’s film cannot be compared with Pulp Fiction, his grasp of the market is obviously better than Quentin Tarantino, who has been in a trough in recent years.

Having struggled in Hollywood for so many years, Harvey Weinstein knows that it is easier to succeed when chasing winners. When a director succeeds, he may go smoothly; when he fails, he may fail successively.

Murphy Stanton is clearly on the rise, which is a stage where the director SF Express is going smoothly.

This is also the most valuable stage of a director.

Murphy over there stood on the balcony of the open-air banquet hall leaning to the outside. After socializing with a group of people, he just wanted to catch his breath when he found a familiar fat man walking diagonally across the street.

"Congratulations, Murphy." Harvey Weinstein walked directly next to him, leaning on the balcony railing with both hands, and looking at Beverly Hills outside, "You brought me too many accidents."

"Thank you!" Murphy also turned to look outside, and smiled modestly, "Actually, I was surprised myself."

He had a calm tone, without any arrogance, as if he had only achieved trivial results.

Harvey Weinstein turned his head and looked at Murphy. Before he came over, he was mentally prepared. The other party was young and energetic, and he might humiliate himself with this, but he didn't expect it to be such a scene.

It is very rare to be able to maintain a peaceful mind when successful, especially in the impetuous place of Hollywood, where Harvey Weinstein valued him 10%.

After all, Murphy is not the young Robert Downey or Tom Cruise. He does have opinions on Harvey Weinstein’s original squeeze, but he won’t be stupid enough to show it, even if he runs on Harvey now- A few words from Weinstein, what's the use besides showing it for a while?

He just looked at the night view of Beverly Hills, looked down at the Hollywood sign in the distance, and figured out how to use the power of Miramax.

A director, there is no need to fight against any film company, this is the most stupid behavior.

Think about the trouble between Spielberg and Universal Pictures for the filming of "Schindler's List" and "Jurassic Park". A few years later, didn't he collaborate on "Jurassic Park 2" again?

In this circle, smart directors will not have eternal enemies.

Harvey Weinstein retracted his gaze from a distance and turned to look around, "Murphy, as long as I'm still in Miramax, a movie will be waiting for you."

Murphy didn't expect Harvey Weinstein to come over to say this, somewhat surprised, but said politely, "Thank you."

The big fat man on the opposite side nodded and turned to leave.

Looking at the obese figure, Murphy was thoughtful. Harvey Weinstein can become a big boss in Hollywood. He will definitely not be a simple character. A geek like Quentin Tarantino is willing to be more than a dozen. People who work together like a day in the year will naturally have their specialties.

"What are you thinking about?" A familiar voice came from the side, "So ecstatic, I didn't even see it when I came over?"

Murphy turned around, Carla Faith, in a black evening dress, was leaning on the railing with his right hand, looking to his side.

"It just feels that this circle is very complicated." Murphy sighed.

Carla Firth looked at the direction Harvey Weinstein was leaving, and said, "It is complicated and complicated, and simple is also very simple."

Murphy leaned on the railing, "It seems I want to ask your teacher for guidance."

"From our relationship, I won't charge." Kara Fes joked rare, and then said seriously, "All business circles cooperate because of interests, and they are divided because of interests. "

"You downright interestist!" Murphy shook his head mockingly.

Kara Feith responded in the same tone, "Don't forget, we are the same kind of people."

Murphy turned to look outside. From here, he can see the night view of Los Angeles, giving people a sense of overhead that can control everything.

The sun had already set, and the night breeze at the end of August had a hint of coolness. Thinking of the time, Murphy suddenly asked, "Have you gone to Columbia University recently?"

"Didn't I tell you?" Carla Firth was standing next to Murphy, also looking out. "The half-year training has been completed. I will stay in Los Angeles in the last few months and not go anywhere. "

She turned her head and looked here, "Are you going to invite me to a big meal?"

"Eat a big meal?" Murphy deliberately pointed to her tall figure, "You will become a fat woman if you eat more."

After returning from prison visits, he contacted Rose. The other party was a local snake in Los Angeles and would not go to New York; Carla Faith was busy with work and would definitely not leave Los Angeles; the three James Franco discussed about going there. Caribbean vacation...

And Kerry Mulligan, wherever she goes, she must follow wherever she goes.

There is nothing to worry about now. As for the Petronas Twin Towers, I'm sorry, but there is nothing he can do.

He hasn't been dizzy yet, knowing that such things must never be touched.

Kara Feith did not respond to Murphy's words, and asked, "What about you? What are you going to do next? New film?"

"No..." Murphy shook his finger, "I plan to go on vacation."

He is not a superman, and he will naturally feel tired after being busy continuously. He intends to find a place to go on vacation after the "Saw Cry" is released from North America.

"Are you going on vacation?" Jonah Hill's voice suddenly sounded, and he and a group of people walked over from behind. "It's better to go to the Caribbean with me."

He obviously drank a lot of alcohol, his tongue was a little big, completely forgetting that there was Carrie Mulligan next to him, hehe smiled and said, "There are a lot of hot Latin beauties, I heard that it is easy to get the bait!"

"Jonah! You idiot..."

Seeing that Kerry Mulligan's dark face was now darker, Seth Rogen hurriedly stuffed a glass of wine in front of Jonah Hill, "Shut your stinky mouth."

Carey Mulligan glanced at the two of them, walked directly to Murphy, took his arm and asked, "How can I hide here?"

She pointed to the members of the crew behind and said, "They all want to have a drink with you."

Carla Faith turned his head and looked at it, and said to Murphy, "I'm leaving now and I won't disturb you anymore."

She nodded to the only familiar James Franco, turned and left here.

As the only person who was not a member of the crew left, other people brought wine and glasses and toasted to Murphy. The success of such a film was also inseparable from these collaborators, and Murphy would not refuse anyone who came.

When I drank too much, I had less scruples in talking. James Franco said suddenly, "Murphy, the four of us haven't been together for a long time. Why don't we go to the Caribbean together for vacation."

He is a little smarter than Jonah Hill. "Ah...and, there's Kerry."

Murphy was also a little moved. Rumors about the scenery of the Caribbean Sea have been good. He turned to look at Kerry Mulligan beside him, "My dear, what do you think."

"I don't want to go." She has always had problems with James Franco, how could she agree, "The Caribbean is too hot."

She looked at the crowd, pointed at the lighting engineer David Robbie and said, "We discussed vacations before, and I think David's hometown is very good."
