On March 3, the youth science fiction film "The Hunger Games" produced by Cantaloupe Studios and distributed by Disney was released.

The film performed quite well, earning $6726 million on its first day and a jaw-dropping $1 million in its first week.

You have to know that this film does not involve any big-name stars. Jennifer Lawrence was only a fourth or fifth-tier actress before, and the others were not even worthy of the title.

The director was also a newcomer with little achievements, and the only celebrity was the name of Gilbert Jr. in the producer column.

But "The Hunger Games" earned more than 1.5 million in the first week, and it was released in March.

Although it is no longer surprising for blockbuster movies to break 100 million yuan in the first week of box office in this day and age, the 100 million yuan of "The Hunger Games" is still enough for the media to report for a while.

Although the film still has a long release period, Disney and Cantaloupe Studios couldn't wait to hold a celebration party for the crew.

As a producer, Gilbert Jr. took time out to attend the celebration party. He has been under a lot of work pressure recently. He is focusing on the post-production of "The Dark Knight Rises" and preparing for "Gravity", which is very stressful.

Fortunately, he has a team that he has been working with for many years, otherwise, even if he worked with Spielberg and James Cameron, he would be exhausted by this intensity of work.

When you are stressed, you need to vent. But recently, the women in Cantaloupe Manor have their own jobs. Anne Hathaway is exhausted from training every day, and Gilbert Jr. doesn't want to torture her anymore.

Cameron Diaz alone cannot withstand the anger and pressure from Gilbert Jr.

Parties are a good place to relieve stress, especially nude parties and swimsuit parties, which Leo loves the most. But Gilbert is very restrained, and he doesn't want to get involved with those questionable women.

Even if we take a step back, you can't say for sure which person is sick.

Little Gilbert also often advised Little Leo to try to avoid looking for wild flowers, so as to avoid feeling the pain if he got sick one day.

Leo listened to him, but he didn't restrain himself. Instead, he opened a modeling company and hired a group of models. Gilbert was speechless when he found out, but Leo had a good argument.

“Since the women out there are not clean, I will train my own women, and every model will have to have a body check to ensure they are clean.

This way I can party as hard as I want!"

After showing off, Leo invited Gilbert: "How about it? Are you interested in investing?"

Little Gilbert looked at him for a long time, then blurted out two words in Chinese: "Get lost!"

"Fake."

Little Leo knew that this was an insult: "It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but you also scold me.

Forget it, I'll enjoy it myself!"

After saying that, he looked at little Gilbert with an expression that said, "You've lost a lot."

Of course, considering Leo's friendship with Madonna in the past for Gilbert, the two were just joking and there was no hurt feelings.

Although this celebration party was for "The Hunger Games", wherever little Gilbert appeared, he was always the focus of the party, and this time was no exception.

As Gilbert Jr. entered the ballroom, he was surrounded by Disney executives.

Greetings, toasts, and fawning, all these actions demonstrated Gilbert Jr.'s supreme status within Disney.

After the first round of socializing was over, Robert Iger finally found a chance to talk to Gilbert Jr. Jennifer Lawrence saw Gilbert Jr. and Robert Iger sitting in a corner chatting.

She rolled her eyes, ordered a glass of champagne, followed quietly, and eavesdropped from behind.

"How is the preparation for Gravity going?"

"Not bad, Jacqueline worked hard."

Gilbert Jr. said, "I hope Disney's resources can support Jacqueline and strive to make a difference in the Oscars next year." Jennifer Lawrence knew about this project, which was Gilbert Jr.'s work to support Anne Hathaway. Gilbert Jr. was so confident that she actually used a science fiction film to impact the Oscars, although she didn't know what the story was about.

At the same time, Jennifer Lawrence is a little envious of Anne Hathaway and the women of Cantaloupe Farm.

They don't have to face the ups and downs of Hollywood, and they thrive and show off under the wings of young Gilbert.

Jennifer Lawrence also wanted that kind of life, but the last time she went to Cantaloupe Manor, she was politely kicked out by Little Gilbert.

The conversation continued, and Jennifer Lawrence pricked up her ears to listen carefully.

"Of course."

Robert Iger nodded: "Not only Jacqueline, I think you also have a chance to win your third Oscar for Best Director."

"Let it go!"

Little Gilbert doesn't care. After all, he has two Oscars for Best Director, and this trophy is dispensable to him.

Having said that, even if he didn't win the Oscar for Best Director, no one would think that Gilbert Jr. was not one of the top directors in Hollywood.

The same is true of George Lucas, who also doesn't have a Best Director trophy, but is still one of the best directors and producers in Hollywood.

Since we are talking about this, the two inevitably talked about Sony Columbia Pictures' Spider-Man and Lucasfilm's Star Wars.

Gilbert Jr. talked about the future work: "I have several scripts on hand, and I am really too busy. I asked Chris to choose the script he is interested in, and he fell in love with Interstellar at first sight."

"Is that the script by Professor Kip Thorne?"

"Yes."

Gilbert Jr. continued: “Chris thought it was a good story, and he often discussed the script with Jonathan and exchanged ideas.

It just so happened that he was free after Lucy, so after discussing it with Professor Kip Thorne, I gave the project to him. "

Jennifer Lawrence also knew in the project of "Lucy" that this was a film in which Gilbert Jr.'s favorite Scarlett Johansson could carry the box office alone.

It was also through this film that Scarlett Johansson secured her place as one of Hollywood's top actresses. Coupled with her role as Black Widow in the Marvel series, her path to superstardom was assured.

Jennifer Lawrence is sure that Gilbert Jr. must also be preparing an Oscar-winning film for Scarlett Johansson. She thinks Gilbert Jr. has a special hobby and hopes to form a harem of actresses.

No matter what Jennifer Lawrence thought later, Kip Thorne actually disagreed. But "Lucy" sold more than 6.2 million US dollars at the global box office, and Christopher Nolan conquered Kip Thorne with his performance.

The obstacles to directing did not exist, and Christopher Nolan succeeded Gilbert Jr. as the director of "Interstellar".

It just so happens that Christopher Nolan also directed it in its previous life, so it can be considered as returning it to its original owner. Gilbert Jr. really couldn't spare the time, and didn't want to drag it out, so changing the director was the best choice.

If there is anyone in Hollywood who is suitable to take over his position, it is Christopher Nolan.

Gilbert Jr. and Robert Iger were chatting happily and didn't notice Jennifer Lawrence eavesdropping behind them. But it didn't matter, because the topics they talked about were all open secrets in Hollywood.

After chatting for a while, the two went to socialize separately.

Jennifer Lawrence followed little Gilbert slowly and not far away, looking for any opportunity to strike up a conversation with him.

You have to know that apart from when little Gilbert came to congratulate the crew and exchanged a few polite words with her, they basically didn't speak to each other afterwards.

If you want to get into a man's bed, you have to make him interested in you. (End of this chapter)
