Hollywood Road

As the night darkened, the valley area became completely quiet. Murphy and Gal Gadot sent away the last batch of guests and returned to the living room of the main building. There was a rustling noise in the backyard. It was the cleaning staff of the party company. In cleaning and tidying the backyard, unlike the arrangement that took a whole day before, they will restore the backyard to its original appearance as quickly as possible.

Gal Gadot walked to the back window, opened the curtains and took a look, and said, "They are very professional."

"Grace is looking for the best party company in the circle. She is staring at the back. There is nothing to worry about." Murphy walked over, stood behind Gal Gadot, and looked out the window, "Don't worry. , They will leave by themselves, let’s take a bath and rest."

"Yeah." Gal Gadot nodded.

When they came to the room upstairs, the two took a shower together. Gal Gadot was sitting in front of the dressing table and blowing his hair. Murphy sat in front of the workbench with a notebook and easel again, watching the writing the other day The thing, looking for a coherent thought interrupted by the appearance of "A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones."

This is the new project he talked about to James Franco.

The copyright negotiation of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is still going on, and it is impossible to complete it in a short time. Even if the copyright is successfully obtained, the production of TV series is very cumbersome, especially such fantasy series.

Murphy does not have a TV station. Carla Faith, who is really connected with the TV station, has also left Fox News a long time ago. Her previous relationship basically stayed in the current affairs news industry, and it was separated from TV production and broadcasting. A thicker wall.

Just like a movie, the TV series are not made by you, and the TV station will come over to grab the scalp. Even if the quality of the TV series is good enough, it is useless. Almost all the new American TV shows have to go through trial broadcasts, and the trial broadcasts have received too much response. Bad, that basically means that no one cares about it.

Although Murphy doesn’t have much research on American TV shows, she also knows that the quality and evaluation of American TV shows are high, but the ratings are so poor that they have been hacked. There are always a lot of people who have been hacked; while dog blood is boring and professional evaluations can be trampled underground, but the ratings are bursting. The number is countless.

"A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones" is a long-term plan for him and Stanton Studios, and there is no rush.

"Murphy." Gal Gadot over there turned off the hair dryer and asked, "You seem to have opinions about Nat."

She could tell a little bit, her boyfriend didn't seem to like her new friend very much.

"I just met her, what do you think?" Murphy decided to remind Gal Gadot, "Her personal style is somewhat polarized in the circle, and it's the kind of polarization that is more serious."

Gal Gadot, with his long hair loose, walked over and looked at Murphy suspiciously, not quite understanding what he meant.

Murphy shrugged, "Some people in the circle, just like ordinary movie fans, think that she is beautiful, elegant, intellectual and self-conscious, and she is a typical good girl with superior ability."

This is also Gal Gadot's view. In the interaction between the two, Natalie Portman gave her the impression that these advantages were all.

"Where are the other people?" she asked.

"It's the opposite." Murphy just said in general terms.

In addition to some news that he had seen on the Internet, he also heard a little rumors about Natalie Portman. In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence-Madonna of White Lotus.

"Oh?" What Gail Gadot lacks is experience, he is not stupid at all, and he knows that Murphy has never been the kind of person who likes to tell right and wrong, frowning slightly, showing a somewhat thoughtful look.

She simply pulled a chair over and sat behind Murphy, watching him typing on the keyboard, and recalling every scene with Natalie Portman.

Some scenes of the two getting along flashed through his mind one by one. Gal Gadot discovered that Natalie Portman is so perfect, such a perfect woman, even easier than her own powerful mother. Win the favor of people.

Mother is a very clever and cunning old fox...

Looking back and seeing Gal Gadot thinking, Murphy is basically relieved. No matter what kind of person Natalie Portman is, as long as Gal can be wary, with her cleverness. Will not suffer too much.

However, the name Natalie Portman can’t help but remind Murphy of the time he used to live on the other side of the Pacific, where a group of very peculiar Hollywood stars had a very peculiar situation there. Strictly speaking, Na Tally Portman can touch it more or less.

These stars are so popular in the Pacific that they far surpass the North American region that they depend on. The most typical representatives are Jessica Alba and Avril Lavigne.

Natalie Portman also greatly surpassed her status in Hollywood. The reason is the role of Matilda.

This role in "Killer Leon" has a huge influence in Europe and East Asia. On the other hand, in North America, it has not been well received. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a type of criticism by the mainstream media, Natalie- Portman himself rarely mentions the first official film role on his debut, and occasionally he talks about it with words like'regret'.

Since Matilda appeared in the role, quite a lot of media and audiences in North America have for a long time regarded her as synonymous with **** and Lolita, and wanted to take the mainstream route. Natalie Portman must have avoided it. If she is replaced by the ambitious and promising Hollywood actor, I am afraid that she will not mention her childhood. She actually appeared in such a role that was splashed by countless people, and From the public's point of view, it is not unreasonable that the sewage is spilled.

The different cultural and social environments of various countries often create this completely different situation.

This kind of Hollywood star in the Greater China region has been strangely popular with mainstream audiences in Europe and the United States. There are many, some even extreme. Murphy once saw a typical case on the Internet because he starred in The Avengers The relationship between Rocky in "League", Tom Hiddleston, known as Douson, has won the support of many Marvel fans. When he and Taylor Swift paired up, Marvel fans were actually huge. As for the lively discussion on Weibo, Taylor Swift’s status and reputation in the United States are not worthy of Tom Hiddleston...

At that time, Murphy was quite speechless. Even if he didn't know much about the pop music industry in North America, he knew that Taylor Swift was already among the best at that time.

The fact is that in terms of career, achievement, wealth accumulation, fame, etc., the woman's crush on the man is terrible. In the Forbes Celebrity Wealth List released that year, Taylor Swift ranked first with absolute advantage. This What is the first concept? Excluding the big names in the business circle, and the world's celebrities across many circles in sports, entertainment and culture, Taylor Swift's total revenue is the first, not to mention Tom Sid, who can barely make it into the second line of Hollywood. Leston, also pressing Leonardo DiCaprio, Messi, Ronaldo, LeBron James, Roger Federer, Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady...

These things don't have to be taken too seriously, after all, the couple looks like a self-made and self-directed public relations love.

Thinking of this, Murphy couldn’t help being distracted. The original typing hands stopped automatically. Of course, he knew that the rumors about Natalie Portman could also be false. The bad things that happened in Hollywood because of jealousy and envy were very bad. If a person becomes popular, there will be more right and wrong that accompanies him.

For example, he himself, since "Sin City" and "Deadpool", has said that he and Robert Downey Jr. are a pair of drug friends, and that he has an unclear relationship with Los Angeles drug dealers.

Every celebrity will never lack gossip.

Murphy reminded Gal Gadot that it only provided her with basic precautions. It is better to be prepared than to regret being cheated in the future.

Without hearing the sound of Murphy's typing on the keyboard, Gal Gadot woke up from his memories and saw Murphy in a trance like her. He first looked at Murphy, then tilted his head to the laptop screen. It's a paragraph that Murphy just typed out.

"Love is the most inexhaustible impermanence in this world. It has all kinds of incarnations: love is intertwined with lies, intertwined with resentment, and even intertwined with murder. Love in full bloom cannot escape hatred. It is a delicate rose. , Exuding a faint blood."

After reading this passage, Gal Gadot was stunned at first, then looked at Murphy in a puzzled way, and immediately jumped out a ridiculous feeling: He... how did he have this idea? If he evaluates love in this way, what is the matter between himself and him?

But her thoughts turned around again. Is Murphy's new work a romance?

"What's the matter?" Murphy saw Gal Gadot's expression.

Gal Gadot didn't say anything, instead he snarled at the laptop screen.

"This." Murphy understood immediately and explained, "This is a line of Tony Kushner in the stage play "The Illusion", and it is also the keynote of my new film."

Gal Gadot nodded and asked, "Is this a romance?"

"No." Murphy shook his head directly, "This is not a story about love and affection. It is not the same as the popular values ​​in Hollywood movies."

The phone rang suddenly, Murphy picked up and said a few words, closed the notebook, and said to Gal Gadot, "Grace and they are gone, let's rest."

After lying down, Gal Gadot was quickly confused because she was really tired today, but when she turned over, she saw Murphy lying next to her, seemingly still thinking about it.

"Why are you still asleep?" Gal Gadot got into his arms.

"Donny is about to hold a bachelor party." Murphy hugged Gal Gadot tightly. "He used to put a poisonous tongue on me so many times before, I was thinking, I should give him a bachelor party at the bachelor party. What an unforgettable gift."
