Dominating Hollywood: Starting with Scarlett

Chapter 210 The day of the film festival
The publicity for "Fifty Shades of Grey" went from newspapers to TV stations. In just one week, Judy and the others were all covered.

The film's release date was also announced in advance, on the day of the 2006 plot.

All fans are looking forward to it and can't wait to see this movie immediately.

However, although it is still far away from release, Norton Eye has also released a promotional video for the film.

Judy was standing next to the video store at the moment, watching the TV screen in the window with her friends.

The beginning is the scene of the heroine meeting the hero. When the two people met on the street, the long look at each other immediately made Judy and the others excited.

"So handsome!"

"Yeah, Allen is so handsome!"

The male protagonist is wearing a white shirt and a dark suit. His slender body lines not only make the heroine on the screen drool, but also the girls off the screen.

Not far away, Mirren and other girls' boyfriends were focused on the heroine Leighton.

It's certainly a testament to the influence of Fifty Shades of Grey, even if it's not a mass film.

"Look, those abs! Oh my God, I want to touch them!"

"Really? Are there any tricks?"

After the intense sex scenes between men and women, the male and female protagonists each experienced some troubles from rumors and inner suffering.

Since Tang De announced that the photography exhibition is a charity, many celebrities have taken the initiative to call and ask to help children in poor areas.

Mirren stood next to them and listened to these people speaking frankly about things between men and women, and his face turned red for a moment.

So Tang De quickly collected the number of photos required for the photography exhibition and sent them to Gladstone Gallery for framing.

"Look, she has such a hot figure!"

"That's great! I want to see it!"

That’s right, the photography exhibition is about to begin.

But seeing his girlfriend and others coveting the male protagonist on TV, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

"Wow, this outfit is great. It's a pity that my girlfriend's breasts are too small, otherwise I could have bought a similar style."

At the same time, news of the photography exhibition also reached the ears of collectors through channels in the industry.

In the office of "Hollywood Reporter", reporter Bergé was discussing the next topic selection with his partner Cairol.

"After watching three games, I still want to buy the CD!"

Berger laughed: "Come on, even if Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal really got together, they would still be Hollywood actors. At most they would have a title in front of them. Compared to one or two stars, Scandal, I am more concerned about this now..."

"I think it could be a follow-up to 'Brokeback Mountain', especially the male actors. I don't think they act like they are acting." Cairol joked while looking at stills from the movie.

"He has it. Even though it's a whole piece, to be honest, he's pretty strong in bed, much better than my previous boyfriends who worked out."

But capital can also see the enthusiasm of those female fans. They even use the slogans in the "Fifty Shades of Grey" promotional video when holding parades.

The girls were very satisfied with the love scenes shown in the promotional video. Both the shots and the ambiguous expressions were just right, satisfying their fantasies while reading.

When she successfully blindfolded the male protagonist and tied him up, she said: "This is not just your right."

But at least Judy forgave him.

So after they watched the promotional video, they immediately began to promote the movie to others.

Fortunately, the promotional video was exciting enough that Judy and the others had no intention of looking back at their boyfriends.

His relationship with Judy has returned to its former glory, albeit at great cost to him.

However, the promotion of the movie is not something Tang De cares about. What he cares more about is his photography exhibition.

The girls covered their mouths and blushed at the pictures.

The heroine seems to have awakened, and slowly, she began to try to take control of this SM.

It even contains some famous scenes from the book, which is simply the greatest good news for book fans.

The girls immediately screamed, thinking this was so cool.

Although in the eyes of many people, "Fifty Shades of Grey" is just an R-rated film, and it should not have too outrageous box office performance.

"You should go and experience this for yourself."

The next moment, the screen ends, and the schedule and actor subtitles appear.

Fortunately, no one noticed her expression.

"Sex is not only a man's right, but also a woman's right."

After many companies saw this release date, they also avoided this date and chose to release their movies before or after it.

"Does your boyfriend have no abs? Touch his."

"Hahaha, you slut!"

In the picture, after the male and female protagonists met, a series of sex scenes flashed quickly.

Judy was also embarrassed by her companion's words.

"Haha, if you don't mind, you can let her cushion me."

"I want to watch two!"

As he spoke, he handed over the newspaper in his hand.

"'Aphrodite, the Incarnation of Desire' themed photography exhibition?" Cairol asked doubtfully: "I remember this is Tang's photography exhibition. Is there anything special about it?"

"There are many special features." Bergé explained: "First of all, the content of the photography exhibition is about the human body, and the people photographed are all celebrities."

"You mean those big stars were naked in front of Tang De's camera? That's really unique. No wonder you're interested in it."

"Not only that." Berger spread his hands: "Secondly, it is a charity photo exhibition. On the first day, there will be an auction. If nothing else, there will be many people who usually don't see them at the photo exhibition. ”

"What about?" Kailuoer also became curious.

"For example, the president of Amazon, executives from Goldman Sachs and Morgan, and Sony's head of America, they will all appear at this photography exhibition."

"Really? How do you know so detailedly?" Kailuoer was a little surprised.

Bergé shrugged: “Because I’ve been paying attention to it, and there are friends of mine in the gallery where the photography exhibition is held.”

"No wonder, with capital and Hollywood, there must be many people attending the photography exhibition that day."

"Yes."

Bergé took out an invitation letter: "I asked a friend to get this. This film festival will be private and the guest list will not be announced to the public. If we can get the information first-hand, then new reports It comes naturally.”

"You are indeed our ace reporter." Kailuoer became happy: "I didn't expect that I even got the invitation letter."

But Berge was very heartbroken and said: "I paid five hundred dollars for this, FXXK!" "Hahaha, don't worry, Berge, I won't pay you."

"Get out of here, Kairol."

Berge cursed angrily, then picked up the camera: "Get ready, this photography exhibition will start soon."
-
Two weeks later, "Aphrodite, Desire Incarnate" was held as scheduled at the Gladstone Gallery.

That afternoon, luxury cars and sports cars appeared one after another in the parking lot of the gallery.

Because Tang De did not invite the media to participate in the film festival, and today was not the announced launch date of the film festival, it was very quiet outside the gallery, with no one at all.

Except for Berger and Cairol.

Two people were sitting in the car, holding long guns and short cannons, aiming at the entrance of the gallery.

After a while, they saw a familiar face.

"It's Leonardo and his girlfriend Bündchen! Don greeted them at the door, and they seemed to have a good relationship."

"Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were welcomed by Don personally. It seems that the charity fund for this film festival was established by Angelina Jolie."

"Spielberg, he admired Tang De very much before and even gave him "Memoirs of a Geisha" to shoot. As expected, he also came to participate in the film festival."

"Oh, look who this is! Quentin, he has rarely appeared in public recently. I heard he is preparing for a new movie."

"And this, Clint Eastwood! He's here too. Are he familiar with Tang De? Why are you here to support him too?"

"There are so many stars, FXXK, Carol, look! It's Cameron!"

Kainuoer pointed the camera lens at the white-haired middle-aged man: "He just announced the filming of "Avatar" recently, and I didn't expect that he would also be free to attend Tang De's film festival."

"Tang De's popularity is so good. So many celebrities are here to participate. It's almost on the same level as the Metropolitan Fashion Festival."

Berge shook his head: "There are far more than these people. Look, Prada's chief designer Miuccia is also here."

"People in the fashion industry..." Kainuoer shook his chin: "They had a good relationship with Tang De before, so it's not surprising."

"Yes, but if you look at those guys we don't know, they can also join this charity film festival. I guess they are either collectors or their agents."

The two of them were filming like this for more than ten minutes, when they suddenly saw a car approaching and stopped at the entrance of the gallery.

"A big guy has appeared!" Due to the reporter's keenness, Berge immediately noticed an unusual aura.

He kept zooming in on the camera and then fixed it in front of the car.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, a vague figure of a man walked into the gallery accompanied by security guards.

Although there were only a few images, Berge was able to detect the man's identity from his physical features.

"God, it's Antonio Villaraigosa!"

"The newly appointed mayor of Los Angeles?" Kenol was also surprised. He didn't expect that a small photography exhibition would attract politicians.

No wonder Tang De refused to disclose the date. If they learned that the mayor of Los Angeles appeared in the gallery, reporters would rush through the door.

At the same time, Tang De also met with the Los Angeles mayor accompanied by Angelina Jolie.

To be honest, he was also very surprised when he learned that the mayor was coming to the film festival.

However, the political arena in the United States is more open. The mayor of Los Angeles appeared here just to express his concern for poor children.

So he doesn't stay long.

But it is also a very honorable thing to have the endorsement of a political figure at the film festival. After those celebrities saw Tang De's energy, they also had a better impression of him.

So after Tang De stood on the stage, everyone focused on him.

"It's an honor that everyone can come to this photography exhibition that I prepared. To be honest, I originally planned to do a small film exhibition and invite some friends from Hollywood, fashion circles and investment circles."

"Everyone can give a little love to children in poor areas as much as possible. That's all I wanted to do."

"I just didn't expect that everyone would be so concerned about the lives of those children. Many of them would accept my photography without any payment, just to let the children have one more meal." Tang De bowed slightly: "Thank you very much. Everyone."

"Wow!" Applause rang out.

Tang De raised his body and continued when the applause subsided: "Especially the appearance of Mr. Villaraigosa really brought us a big surprise. I believe that if the people of Los Angeles learn about this, they will also I would be proud to have such a generous mayor.”

"Wow!" Everyone applauded again and paid tribute to the mayor of Los Angeles with their eyes.

“So, I’d like to ask Mr. Villaraigosa to come on stage and say a few words about our charity, would you like that?”

"Wow!"

To the applause, Antonio Villaraigosa nodded, walked up to the stage, and picked up the microphone.

Tang De came to Cameron, who was invited by Jessica.

Similar to him is Clint Eastwood, who was invited by Anne Hathaway.

Sofia Coppola was invited by Scarlett.

These women from Tang De worked hard for this film festival.

It's just that he deliberately chose an unlucky time so that these women couldn't come to the photography exhibition.

The only one present was Jessica Alba.

Listening to the mayor's speech, Cameron looked at the photos on the wall absently.

When he saw the photos of the human body reflected in lines by the lights, he said to Tang De with great interest: "It's very creative. I like your control of the lights."

"Thank you for your approval." Tang De replied modestly.

"In which direction do you think film technology will improve next?" Cameron asked a question.

He is very much like a scientific researcher at the moment, paying more attention to the technical progress of the film than the specific content.

Tang De recalled the development of later generations and said: "I think the first thing is the advancement of picture specifications and the advancement of movie viewing methods, such as 3D movies."

"This is also the direction I am working on. I feel that this technology has not been fully utilized. In fact, I have achieved leapfrog progress in the laboratory, which is really shocking."

3D movie technology was born very early, with its prototype in 1848.

However, due to the special viewing environment and high shooting costs, it did not cause much response.

It was Cameron's "Avatar" that really made 3D movies officially become a world trend.

After Tang De heard what he said, he felt that he could plan a 3D movie in advance.

After the success of "Avatar", 3D movies have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Many movies have made a lot of money with this gimmick. Tang De can seize the opportunity and get the first piece of the pie.

Gee, how about the 3D version of Fifty Shades of Gray?
Just the name alone can make many fans scream.

Just when I thought of this, the mayor's speech suddenly stopped, and bursts of applause broke out.
