Ask for monthly and recommended tickets!

At the end of the screening, most of the participants did not leave. Under the leadership of the Miramax staff, they left the Lumiere Hall and went to the large banquet hall of a nearby hotel, where the Weinstein brothers prepared a reception party. This is also an important part of the premiere. The theater screening is only the beginning, and the subsequent negotiations are the key.

Except for a few major markets, in most overseas regions, Miramax also sells out overseas screening rights.

"Hi Murphy,"

Soon after the party started, many people looked for the director Murphy, especially Mike Gervin from Australia, who seemed quite enthusiastic, "It's a wonderful film, it's really amazing."

Murphy raised his glass and motioned to him, "Thank you."

"This idea is amazing!" Mike Gervin seems to be still immersed in the film. "It is completely unexpected to be able to kill zombies with these tricks. This is definitely the best zombie film in ten years!"

Someone seemed to greet him in the back, and the guy said apologetic, "I will leave the meeting first."

"You are free." Murphy nodded.

This guy from Australia can be said to be the epitome of international filmmakers. Most of them greet Murphy with extreme enthusiasm.

Of course, there are exceptions. For example, Ruan Jingtian from Vietnam does not pay much attention to Murphy, and is not very interested in the screening rights of the film "Planet of Horror."

This kind of film is destined to be liked very much by those who like it, and disgusted by those who do not like it.

"Did you see that person?"

In a corner of the banquet hall, Monica Bellucci placed the wine glass on the table in front of him, leaning against the back of the chair, and extended a finger, pointing towards Murphy, and talking to her husband Vincent on the opposite side. Caso said, "He is the director of this film."

"He?" Vincent Carson didn't seem to believe it. "Did you make a mistake? Too young, right?"

"You can't go wrong, it's him."

Speaking of which, Monica Bellucci felt unbelievable, "You know? I met him in Hollywood more than a year ago."

Vincent Caso frowned slightly. "Is he special?"

"No, it's not special at all." Monica Bellucci retracted her finger. "It's just amazing!"

She glanced at the young director who was surrounded by a few people, "At that time he was just... well, how do you put it..."

After this period of memory, Monica Bellucci gradually remembered the specific experience in the Warner Studios. "At that time, he was not even a small person. My assistant could scold him at will, and then watch. Look now..."

Turning his head and glanced over there, Vincent Carson could recognize that there were French director Jean-Pierre Sonnet and Chinese film star Mitchell Young standing next to him. They said yes. The attitude of smiling is not at all facing a small person.

It is impossible for a film directed by a small person to make Miramax Films so arduous to hold a premiere and reception party of this magnitude.

Monica Bellucci sighed slightly. In just over a year, she was able to climb from the bottom of Hollywood to her current position. This young director is really not easy.

Especially compared with herself, she felt more emotion in her heart.

She traveled to North America several times to develop, and wanted to really break into Hollywood. She also starred in influential films such as "The Matrix 2." What happened? Americans still don’t like her. Few American film companies are willing to use her. Not to mention the heroines, even the supporting actresses who are not heavy can not get her. Now she is the largest film market in the world. No second-rate Hollywood movie star can match.

After nearly ten years, she didn't have any breakthroughs in her career in North America, but what about the other party? In just over a year, not only did Xianyu make a big turn, but he also became a star in the eyes of a heavyweight film company like Miramax.

As a last resort, she can only return to Europe. Although she has a wide reputation in Europe, if she can appear in a big-selling film that is rampant around the world, who wants to take off her clothes and show off in some films with limited circulation?

Looking at Murphy Stanton over there, Monica Bellucci only felt that the world was really unfair. The other party was God's darling, and she was God's outcast at all.

Wandering in the banquet hall, people constantly greeted enthusiastically, Robert Downey Jr. regained the feeling of the year. At that time, he was very energetic, rising like the morning sun, about to radiate a thousand rays of light. ...

It's just that all of this finally turned into illusion, and he, the star of Hollywood's hope, also became a prisoner in prison.

"Donny, is that really you? You are so cool!"

"Your actions are so handsome, the Downey I know is back!"

"Well done, Robert, your performance is great!"

Hearing these compliments from around him, Robert Downey Jr. was a little bit intoxicated and took it for granted, didn’t he perform well? Such praise is also deserved!

The surrounding people gradually dispersed. Robert Downey Jr. picked up the glass and drank a glass of champagne. He felt that he had to treat himself a bit, turned his head to look at the crowd, and planned to find a suitable target.

But what came into his eyes were not beautiful women, but two fat men. Behind the fat man was a thin man, Jonah Hill, Seth Logan and James Franco.

These are the friends he met through Murphy after he was released from prison.

"Hey, Downey."

The one who spoke was Jonah Hill. He was the most talkative of the three. "Don't you want to have a drink with Murphy?"

"A drink with Murphy?" Robert Downey Jr. didn't quite understand what he meant. "Why should I have a drink with him? There are so many opportunities for us to drink together."

Seth Rogen walked over and put a hand on Robert Downey Jr.'s shoulder, "Because the movie has just ended."

James Franco stood in front of Robert Downey Jr., "Aren't you going to pass now?"

Robert Downey Jr. suddenly realized that he should indeed go to the Murphy guy to toast a glass of wine, "Let's go, let's pass now."

Standing in the center of the banquet hall, the Weinstein brothers were entertaining international filmmakers from all over the world. Murphy also met many people in the industry under the introduction of Erica Steinberg and Bill Rossis. .

"What these people represent..."

Standing at a dining table, Bill Rossis looked at the people around Weinstein, "It's a vast movie distribution network."

Murphy nodded and looked at the Weinstein brothers who were laughing stiffly in the crowd, and said with emotion, "Socializing is not only a technical job, but also a physical labor."

Bill Rossis laughed.

A series of footsteps sounded, and just as Murphy turned his head, a dark figure walked over quickly, and the other party stretched out his arms and rushed directly at him.

Murphy could see that this was Robert Downey Jr. He didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he let the opponent jump over and hug him.

Robert Downey Jr. patted Murphy on the back hard, "Now you are my God!"

With that, he hugged Murphy again.

"Your God is almost out of breath!" Murphy saw that someone on the other side looked strangely here, pushed Robert Downey Jr. away, looked at him and asked suspiciously, "What do you want to do?"

"Nothing! Just do something I like to do." Robert Downey Jr. didn't go straight at all, making exaggerated gestures with his hands, and talking faster than his mouth, "I want to hug you now, you won't disagree. Right, Murphy? It's too cruel to do that, especially for a believer like me who belongs to you. You can't treat me so cruelly..."

"Stop! Stop!" Murphy raised his hand and interrupted. He believed Robert Downey Jr. could be long-winded all night if he didn't stop it, "Donny, can you tell me something?"

"Hey! You guys!" Robert Downey Jr. snapped his fingers at the back. Seth Logan and Jonah Hill brought some wine glasses over, and after Murphy and the others came next, James -Franco opened another bottle of champagne and poured the wine one by one for several people. Robert Downey Jr. flicked the glass, the laughter on his face had long since disappeared, and instead he was serious and serious, "This is to you. !"

After speaking, he touched the glass with Murphy, James Franco came over to clink with Murphy one by one, and then drank all the wine in the glass together.

As soon as Murphy finished drinking, Robert Downey Jr. put the cup on the table next to him, and came over to give him a hug.

"It's not a joke this time, you are my savior,"

Probably under the influence of Murphy and others, the current Robert Downey Jr. is gradually back on track, and he can see many things, "For me, you are the salvation angel sent by God!"

He let go of Murphy, took a step back, and looked here, "Murphy, in prison, you saved my dignity; in Hollywood, you gave me a rebirth! I know, you don’t like others to appreciate you. I know In your eyes, helping friends is a matter of course. But I want to say to you, thank you!"

Murphy shook his head and smiled, "Donny, you feel strange when you look serious."

"Really?" The seriousness on Robert Downey Jr.'s face disappeared immediately, and he changed to uninhibited free and easy. "How can I thank you? How about this. I call a party and find 20 models for you? Young and beautiful. , Big chest, long legs..."

"Our film has just finished its premiere." Murphy didn't answer him at all. "I don't know if the box office will succeed."

"Regardless of the box office, you gave me a chance to rise again." Robert Downey Jr. took over the champagne from James Franco. "This is something that old Robert Downey couldn't do. Today I must have a nice drink with you!"

It is impossible to have a good drink tonight. Murphy must reserve enough energy so that tomorrow, together with Bill Rossis, will participate in the negotiations between Miramax and overseas publishers.
