BXBX NOVEL Chapter 60: the eve of the show
With the arrival of Halloween, James Olsen kept urging him. Roland, who came out of his home early this morning, carried a pile of autographed notebooks on his back, carrying the ones that he had brought in from David\'s collection room last night. Accompanied by presents, they rushed to the set.
When he pretended to be a must-have in major film and television dramas and novels, he sold the top-quality wine that has not been sold out for many years. In the future, the market price will be more than 70,000 a bottle (?), and the son of the **** of death called it bad. After Lafite gave it to the truck driver in 2010, the guy who was lying at the table, resting his chin on one hand, looking at today\'s shooting schedule was a little surprised.
"Roland, do you remember the wrong date?"
"Today is Halloween and not Christmas Eve, why did you send me something properly?"
While speaking, he glanced at the outer packaging, "Chateau Lafite? 1982?"
"Isn\'t this letting Robert Parker step on Robert Finnigan\'s top red wine?"
"You didn\'t buy this, did you? Did you steal it from home?"
Although the truck driver\'s perception of red wine is far less strong than that of diving, the name of Lafite in 1982 is too big, and it is enough to change the wine rating system. In this case, it\'s nothing small Drinking a bottle of Cameron, of course, will understand the public news about it, and he also knows that the bottle of Lafite, whose original ex-factory price is 17 euros, has now been fired to thousands of dollars, and this price is the current price of Roland. , which is unacceptable.
steal? Can the work of a scholar be called stealing?
Roland slandered secretly in his heart. Facing the puzzled look cast by Cameron, his expression was naturally unaffected, without any psychological pressure at all, "James, what are you thinking? Do I need to do that kind of thing?"
"Happy Halloween, David asked me to bring this for you."
"In his words, that is to thank you for teaching me this month, because the film is in the shooting stage, and inviting you to the backyard party at this time may interfere with the filming progress of the crew, so I will give you a small gift, Thank you."
Although Roland spoke seriously, Cameron did not accept his nonsense.
He looked at Roland with scrutiny, and the distrust in his eyes was vividly displayed—
‘Come on, just make it up, keep going! I see what flowers you can come up with...\'
You know, Cameron is Canadian!
Every year when Halloween comes, Masses will be held in parts of Scotland and Canada to commemorate all the saints in heaven!
Compared with this traditional way of commemoration, the behavior of monsters and ghosts that go to the streets to ask for candy for the sake of commercial interests completely violates the sacred meaning of Halloween!
Even though Cameron has never publicly expressed his beliefs.
But in order to avoid controversy, people in the circle will basically not drag him to participate in any Halloween celebrations.
After all, no one knows whether his \'kindness\' behavior will arouse the disgust of this temper-tempered guy.
pity-
Roland doesn\'t know!
He thought Halloween was when Dad took a Changjiang No. 7, went to the streets to cast spells, and shouted, "Ghosts, goblins, go away"...
Seeing that Cameron didn\'t respond, Roland, who was stared at by the other party, felt a little guilty. After a stalemate for more than ten seconds, he lost the battle and shrugged: "Well, it\'s not because of "Home Alone". Is it going to be released next month?"
"James Olson, who lives next door to me, helped me promote a lot in school."
“He encouraged my former classmates to go to the theater to support me after the movie was released.”
"Because of the topic he brought up, my former schoolmates remembered that I was filming Terminator 2 with you - you had a lot of fans at my school and they wanted your autograph ,so-"
"James just took a bottle of wine from his dad\'s collection, hoping you can satisfy those fans of yours."
The twisted and turned words are full of many logical errors.
But even so, Cameron, who understood, still laughed.
"Need an autograph?"
"I thought you came up with some stupid problem and wanted to embarrass me."
"Take the wine back and ask James to give it back to his dad."
"Take out the signature book, and I\'ll sign it for you while it\'s still early."
The truck drivers have started to teach Roland how to film, so things like signing autographs are naturally a no-brainer.
For him, the previous caution was actually due to worry.
Because he was afraid that Roland would come up with some weird questions that would make him roll his eyes and yell at him.
Since he knew that Roland had come to ask for an autograph this morning, he naturally didn\'t have to worry about yelling before the filming started.
"If you don\'t accept alcohol, then I can only give it to Linda (Hamilton)..." Roland added slowly when delivering the autograph book.
Hearing what he said, Cameron said speechlessly: "That\'s fine, just keep this wine."
"Stop talking nonsense, give me the notebook quickly."
However, when he picked up the fountain pen, took the autograph book handed over by Roland, and opened the first page—
The smile on his face froze suddenly.
‘I wish you a happy life every day. —Roland Allen\'
o_O
? ? ?
What?
What the **** is this?
With a feeling of doubt, after turning to the second page—
\'I\\\'llbeback!—Arnold Schwarzenegger\'
╰_╯
? ? ? ? ?
Are you kidding me?
Looking at the first page with Roland\'s blessing, the second page with the governor\'s signature, and only the third page with the signature book left blank—
Cameron\'s first reaction was that Roland might have given it wrong.
But the problem is—
When he picked up the second book that Roland took out, and opened it in order again, the exact same content made him blow his nose.
"Roland, are you sure all your old classmates are my fans?"
Cameron looked at Roland with a smile, and asked clearly: "Are you sure you didn\'t take the wrong autograph book?"
"No!" Roland, who hadn\'t reacted yet, shook his head like a rattle.
"Then can you explain what happened to the signatures on the first two pages?"
Cameron shook the words on the autograph book in front of Roland.
Looking at the extremely clear words, Roland didn\'t feel at all that there was something wrong with these signatures—
"Oh, you said this, they are also fans of me and Arnold!"
hehe…
Your face is really big...
Saying this on Halloween is simply deceiving ghosts.
You kid’s movie hasn’t been released yet, and those kids will ask you for an autograph?
Are kids these days all wise, or are they stupid?
I\'d trust Arnold\'s signature, but you—
Save it!
Cameron felt that he had seen the essence of the matter clearly. It was definitely Roland who wanted to get some bargaining chips from himself in order to make James better encourage those old classmates in school to go to the movies...
Describe a Chiguoguo transaction as a fan\'s admiration?
Really have you!
Want to use Lao Tzu\'s signature as a favor?
Dream you!
"No sign, no sign, I\'m going to film."
Throw the signature book on the table, pick up the peaked cap and put it on the head, wave the sleeves, without taking away a cloud.
Looking at the figure who left suddenly, Roland, who kept picking out the autograph book from outside, was stunned.
What\'s up with this guy?
Didn’t you promise to be good?
Why did the attitude change in the blink of an eye?
I just mentioned Linda Hamilton, even if you feel tired, you don’t have to!
If Roland were to know the other party\'s true thoughts, he would definitely shout, \'The concubine is wronged! \'
He just wanted to buy one and get one free, to give back to his old classmates. He really had no intention of trading!
Unfortunately, no matter what he thinks, the matter is a foregone conclusion.
Cameron did not sign anything other than leaving calligraphy on Roland\'s autographed collection.
In such a situation, Roland did not have a good solution. After trying a few times, he returned the pile of autographs to James, and told him that Cameron thought he was selling autographs, so he refused to sign.
James didn\'t think much about such an answer.
Even if there is only Schwarzenegger\'s name, he can sell the autographed copy.
However, when he sent Roland away with a smile on his face, he couldn\'t wait to open the carton to check the calligraphy inside.
The daimyo left on the front page stunned him—
Holding up the autograph book, James sprinted directly to the gate of Roland\'s house.
Bang Bang Bang Bang Immediately, knocking on the door sounded like thunder, surging.
"Fuck! Roland! Get the **** out of here! Did I make you sign this?"
"Still saying \'I wish you a happy life every day\'? How do you want me to sell the book... give it away!"
"Do you want them to go to the theater to watch your movie? Come out and explain it to me!"
Roaring like a wild lion made Ganetti, who was at home with a baby, shake his head again and again.
Opened the window, leaned out, and glanced at the next door.
When she found out that her son seemed to be crazy and kept banging on the door of Roland\'s house, a helpless smile clung to her cheek.
"Mom, brother, what is he doing? Why is he yelling at Brother Roland?"
Did not take the show, Ashley and Mary who were playing at home also heard James\' words.
When Little Loli raised his head and asked Ganetti, Ganetti, who had already retracted his body, smiled and said, "Maybe Roland was bullied by your brother again..."
"Don\'t worry about them, let them make trouble..."
"Come on, let\'s continue to play with my sister..."
Although the fact that Roland left the calligraphy in the autograph book bankrupted James\'s (exchange) money (book) business, but after he calmed down, he just complained to Roland a few words, and then he worked hard again in school. Help spread the word.
After more than a month of warm-up, since the time entered November, the advertisement of "Home Alone" has been completely rolled out. Posters featuring Roland as the protagonist are plastered all over the streets and alleys. It is vividly embodied.
Not only that, even though Roland didn\'t have time to go on publicity, but in the interviews and programs arranged by the announcement party, from producer John Hughes to co-actor Daniel Stern, they all praised Roland according to the process .
Although it is true that the male number one\'s behavior of not participating in the announcement does not conform to industry rules, but considering Spielberg, who has not made public information so far, neither the investor nor the producer has any objections, not to mention, even if Roland did not appear , but Fox’s publicity department still got in touch with Cameron, and their special correspondents directly took pictures of two heads, one big and one small, sitting next to the monitor to watch the shooting, and then the adults were still dancing and explaining to the children’s strokes picture.
When this set video was exposed on the FOX program, the host asked in an exaggerated tone: "Chris, according to the news we got, Roland Allen, who is participating in the filming of "Terminator 2", seems to be very studious? He is full of curiosity and interest in the art of film?"
"Yes, when we were filming "Home Alone" before, he also sat next to me and participated in the whole filming." Columbus on the show nodded, "He is different from those little actors I have come into contact with before. , he is like a sponge, constantly absorbing knowledge from the outside world, no matter who the other party is, no matter what field the other party is good at, as long as the other party is free and has time, he will tentatively ask. It is precisely because of this that we cooperate very happy…"
"Then, will his question cause trouble to you?" The host asked curiously, "As far as I know, many directors would be very disgusted with those questions in order to ensure their absolute right to speak in the crew. Guys, because they will feel that this kind of behavior of actors is challenging their own status..."
"No, no, no... Roland\'s situation is different from what you said." Columbus quickly denied, "Roland\'s original intention is to improve himself and make a good movie. If his question is wrong, we are explaining the reason to him Afterwards, he will also apologize on the spot. If you don’t believe me, this video is proof that even James Cameron can endure his questioning. Is there any doubt that he is making trouble on the set? If he really He was making trouble, James would have thrown him out a long time ago..."
"Yes." Joe Pesci also took over the words, and said: "After all, everyone knows James\' temper. Even if we have the ability, we can\'t let him cooperate to shoot such a picture..."
After the FOX program aired, Amerika became more interested in Roland.
Because no matter what other people are bragging about, it is impossible to change the fact that Cameron is a stubborn old man.
And in this case, that child actually conquered him?
This may be the best advertisement.
Can Cameron be moved by the protagonist of "Home Alone"?
After the news came out, the North American Theater Alliance directly increased the film schedule for November 16 by three points.
Not famous?
Not enough coffee seats?
Then...
Use your strength to fight!
In Hollywood, all the problems you have are because of the small seats.
When you reach a big enough card, the whole circle of people will revolve around you.
Of course, for Roland now, these are not important.
He only hoped that on the 16th, he could come soon.
Note: ① The Linda Hamilton mentioned by Roland when giving the red wine is Sarah Connor in the "Terminator" series. The two met when they were shooting the second part. She is Cameron\'s first Four wives, gave birth to a daughter for Cameron in 1993, married in 1997, but divorced in 1999. The "Terminator" series, after the production company went bankrupt, Cameron wanted to buy it back. If the relationship between the two of them hadn\'t gone wrong, the last three "Terminator" movies would not be what they are now. Because of the divorce of the two of them, Cameron didn\'t want to make this series anymore, and he didn\'t have the money (the divorce cost 50 million yuan, and the series IP price at that time was more than 25 million yuan) to buy the series back, so he only wanted to make the third part. Named a screenwriter, the fourth part has nothing to do with him. After the fifth tribe was in the hands of Oracle founder Ellison\'s children, the other party found Cameron to re-sign the screenwriter, and the sixth part that was not released, Cameron is the first producer, and only when he comes back can the movie be called an orthodox sequel.
