Chapter 380 Happy Events in Life
After July and August, the smoke of the North American summer season is about to clear.
The biggest winner this summer is undoubtedly "The Return of the King," and "Spider-Man" produced and distributed by Sony Columbia Pictures is not bad either.
However, in terms of movie companies, the biggest winners are undoubtedly Disney and Warner.
With Melon Studios' "Return of the King", "The Matrix 3", and "Spellbound" movies, the two companies' summer performance is very impressive.
This summer, as several movies produced and released by Disney became hits, Robert Iger's status became even more stable.
Michael Eisner officially announced his resignation as chairman of Disney in July, completing a smooth retirement. This is different from the previous life, where Michael Eisner retired in a very embarrassing way.
It can only be said that with little Gilbert, even Michael Eisner's fate has become much better.
After Michael Eisner retired, Robert Iger officially took over as chairman of Disney, taking full control of Disney just like his boss.
Of course, we should not forget the well digger.
In mid-August, Disney held a grand celebration banquet for the cast of "The Return of the King" and also celebrated the inauguration of Robert Iger as chairman of Disney.
The celebration banquet was held at Robert Egger's new villa, which was not far from the Melon Manor and was specially selected by Robert Egger.
At the celebration party, little Gilbert naturally became the focus of the party. The enthusiastic eyes of many film company executives seemed to devour little Gilbert.
Little Gilbert attended the party with Cameron Diaz and Scarlett. Several other women were busy and could not come.
Naomi Watts had been feeling unwell recently and kept wanting to vomit, so she was asked to rest at home.
Anne Hathaway, as a member of the "Lord of the Rings" crew, naturally came to the banquet. Also coming to the party were the three little Harry Potter animals.
"Little Gilbert, congratulations!" As a close collaborator, Doug Walter would naturally attend such a celebration party.
"Thank you," Little Gilbert clinked a glass with Doug Walter and chatted briefly, mainly about the next project and the "Batman" project.
"As a small project, "Heartbeat" is not suitable for release in the summer and fiercely competitive schedules. I think the November schedule is actually very good." Gilbert Jr. said.
Doug Walter complimented: "In my opinion, even your small project is enough to compare with other big productions.
You think so, Michelle, Scarlett? "
Cameron Diaz nodded: "Of course, Little Gilbert's movies have always been the most competitive works in the film market."
Sijia pouted and said, "It's not a small project. I've put in a lot of effort, okay?"
"Hahaha, okay, okay, it's a big project." Everyone laughed.
Obviously, everyone can see that "Heartbeat" is just a fun work by Gilbert Little to support Scarlett.
However, the investment in this movie is very low, and Gilbert only received a nominal salary, so profitability will not be a problem. With the appeal of Little Gilbert, no matter how bad it is in North America, it can still sell 70, 80, or even over 100 million box office.
Doug Walter was concerned again: "I heard that Naomi is sick. My personal doctor is very good. Do you want to ask the personal doctor to come and take a look?"
The upper class in North America rarely go to the hospital if they are sick, unless the hospital is opened by themselves.
Super rich people like Gilbert Jr. usually have a trusted personal doctor. There is enough privacy and a high level of security.
"Thank you," Little Gilbert declined Doug Walter's kindness: "The manor has a private doctor, but Naomi is very resistant to seeing a doctor, and I can't force it.
Fortunately, it's not serious. Recently, I just feel nauseous and want to vomit. "
Doug Walter's wife, who was standing by, heard the news and her eyes lit up: "Director Gilbert, has Naomi been craving for sour food recently and her appetite has increased greatly?"
Little Gilbert was stunned: "How did you know?"
Doug Walter’s wife looked as if this was indeed the case: “That’s right, Naomi is probably pregnant.”
"Pregnant?" Little Gilbert's mind suddenly buzzed: "Pregnant?"
Seeing that little Gilbert's brain was shutting down, Doug Walter quickly woke him up: "Are you okay?"
Little Gilbert came back to his senses and showed a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, no, I have to call Naomi and Kyoko."
"Hey, hey, don't be anxious yet." Doug's wife was experienced: "Let Michelle go back first, you can go back early, I will send someone over tomorrow.
Women have a lot of troubles when they are pregnant, so leave this matter to me. "
"Yeah," Cameron Diaz was very envious. She also wanted a child: "I'll go back and have a look first and let the doctor check it out."
Little Gilbert thought about it, and said to Scarlett: "Sijia, you can go back with us."
"Yeah!" Scarlett said that she was also envious, but since she expressed her feelings to little Gilbert, little Gilbert has not wanted her yet.
But it doesn't matter, it's coming soon, she will be an adult after her birthday, and then she can have no reservations.
"What's so exciting?" It happened that Robert Egger had just accepted the congratulations and came over with his wife.
Mrs. Doug told Robert Egger and his wife about Naomi Watts' pregnancy, and Robert Egger's eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's a good thing, our great director's talent has finally been inherited by someone." Robert Egger clapped his hands. Little Gilbert told him to keep a low profile: "This is a family matter. I don't want too many people to know about it prematurely."
"Understood," Robert Egger changed the subject: "Little Gilbert, how about I be the child's godfather?"
Doug Walter was unhappy: "Hey! Bob, I came first, you have to wait in line."
"Queue? I am the chairman and president of Disney, and I am qualified." Robert Iger began to compare status.
He is indeed a bit weaker than Doug Walter in terms of status, but Doug Walter will not give in: "I can give my children the best education, and I will give them the greatest support in whatever they want to do in the future."
Little Gilbert stopped him in time: "Okay, okay, okay, this child isn't even born yet, so stop arguing now."
It is not even certain whether she is pregnant or not. Little Gilbert's unborn child already has a Hollywood giant as his godfather. One can only imagine how powerful the fathers of this child will be in the future.
By the way, Tom Cruise also wants to be the child's godfather.
Tom Cruise even said that if little Gilbert gives birth to a boy, he will marry a baby. If nothing else, Suri, who inherits Nicole Kidman's looks, should be a beauty when she grows up.
Suppressing his excitement, little Gilbert waited until the end of the banquet to meet the "Harry Potter" trio, and then planned to go back to see Naomi.
Little Gilbert is already very familiar with Haley, who plays Harry Potter, but he is not too familiar with the other two little actors.
"After this year's Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, this project will be suspended for two years, waiting for your voice-changing period to pass. I emphasize two points. First, you must insist on taking acting classes.
I don’t want to see you perform poorly in the next series of games, otherwise I will replace you without hesitation.
Second, you must maintain your figure and posture. You must not suddenly become fat or thin. Also, you must not touch alcohol, tobacco, or drugs. Otherwise, get out of here. Do you understand? "
The three young actors remained silent and repeatedly expressed that they understood.
Emma Watson, who was among the trio, looked at little Gilbert with her eyes and her voice was very sweet: "Director Little Gilbert, I think my acting teacher didn't teach well.
Unlike Hailey, I have filmed a scene with you. If I have time, can I go to Melon Manor and listen to your guidance? "
Many times, it is normal for actors to let directors guide them in terms of their acting skills. With a good director, actors can give good performances and even win awards.
But if you encounter a director who doesn't know how to train and doesn't have high requirements, the actor may also give a catastrophic performance.
Hearing Emma Watson's words, little Gilbert didn't think much and nodded in agreement: "Yes, you can come together too."
The other two young actors were also happy and agreed immediately.
Only Emma Watson, who made this suggestion, was a little unhappy. She actually just wanted to receive guidance alone.
As a young actress, no matter how precocious Emma Watson is, it is impossible for her to evolve into one of those deep-thinking actresses in Hollywood.
The reason why she made such a presumptuous proposal tonight actually came from the idea of her agent and family.
The reason is simple, Scarlett is the role model that Emma Watson should emulate. Scarlett's story is known to everyone in Hollywood. This little girl has been on the set of Little Gilbert since she was very young.
It was also because of little Gilbert's care that Scarlett became a child star, and it went smoothly without any difficulties.
Although little Gilbert said to others that Scarlett was his sister, just listen to this and don't take it seriously.
As Sijia grew up and became slim, it stands to reason that such a beauty would arouse the pursuit of many people. This is what Hollywood is like. Cars, beautiful women, drugs, parties and sex are all indispensable.
But in fact, no one dared to pursue Sijia. The reason was simple, they did not dare to offend little Gilbert.
The last person who dared to touch little Gilbert woman was an arrogant guy named Mel Gibson. He is still squatting in jail and he doesn’t know when he will be released.
Little Gilbert is not a nice guy. He is known as the Smiling Tiger of Hollywood. People will get intoxicated by his smile and then unknowingly step into the trap he has set.
Emma Watson's family and agent certainly know that Emma's career will be much smoother if she hugs little Gilbert's lap.
If she could be as favored by little Gilbert as Scarlett, she would have a lifetime of food and clothing and many movie projects.
Little Gilbert is not a fool. On the contrary, he is certainly a smart man after having been in Hollywood for so long.
So he pulled the other two young actors over with his backhand, and the training was another matter, but he couldn't make Emma Watson feel relaxed and simple.
For the rest, little Gilbert was too lazy to make any more moves.
After all, with his identity and status, it would be a bit pricey to plot against a small actor. If you are not happy at that time, just lower it to ten levels with all your strength.
Although the party was still going on, little Gilbert couldn't stay any longer and hurriedly left the party after finishing the entertainment.
The melon manor was already filled with a festive atmosphere at this time.
Thank you Tianchong Lamao for the reward, and thank you all for your subscription recommendations and monthly votes.
There have been so many things going on in the past two days that I can’t even keep up with the updates.
There is another chapter tonight. The chapter from yesterday cannot be released at all.
