95. Chapter 95 When You Are Valuable

"Hi, Sean, how are you?"

"Hey, Sean, I'm so happy to see you."

"Hello, Sean, you look really no different from that in the movie."

Along the way, people whom he knew or didn't know greeted Sean from time to time. Sean had to cheer up and respond with a smile. In just a few dozen minutes, he felt as tired as he had been filming a movie for several hours.

"It's really different from the previous treatment." After finally finding a corner to rest, Sean looked around and said something self-deprecatingly.

This is the celebration party held by Miramax at the Roosevelt Hotel - although they didn't say it, everyone who participated knew that no one could have expected that a literary film like "The Genius Ripley" would be available.

The top spot in North America’s weekend box office rankings is not that there are no literary and artistic works that have achieved high box office, but they perfectly take into account commercial nature, such as "Forrest Gump" or "Robbery of Pear Blossom", etc.

Although "Genius Ripley" is good overall, its shortcomings are still very obvious. Mingla's control rhythm is still a little slower. Therefore, if you can reach this level, except for luck, such as there is no powerful movie released, and

"The Elf Mouse" has been released for almost a month, and "Challenge Sunday" that was once overwhelmed has lost all its head, but Sean undoubtedly played a major role.

If he hadn't attracted countless attention, if he hadn't caused such a huge momentum, and with the lively Golden Globe Awards, which finally prompted more curious audiences to enter the cinema, how could "Genius Ripley" be in the first place

It also won 11.27 million yuan in three weeks? Although many people expressed their disappointment after watching it, and some even claimed on the Internet that "Genius Ripley" was not worthy of its reputation, more people thought it was not bad.

In this case, Miramax naturally wanted to celebrate, so he booked a hall at the Roosevelt Hotel and invited many people to attend. Sean didn't think too much at the beginning and brought Garen and Frederick to come with him.

No, I didn't expect that many people who came to the cocktail party were extremely enthusiastic about them. After two laps, Garen and Frederick disappeared, leaving him alone to deal with it.

"Hey, Sean, why are you hiding here?" Before he could rest for two minutes, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

"I just want to take a break, Fred." Sean rolled his eyes and looked at his agent.

"Why, the taste of fame is starting to bother you?" Frederick asked quippedly with his eyes blinking.

"A little bit." Sean shrugged, and then added: "But only a little bit."

It is indeed a bit annoying to deal with, but those words with flattering sounds do feel a sense of ejaculation in their ears, even if they know they are all just.

"Where is Garen?" He changed the subject.

"Maybe you'll be chatting with a kid in a corner. He's more relaxed than you, Sean." Frederick patted his shoulder and laughed.

"Do you really think he is in my situation, so many people can still let go of the situation?" Sean asked back.

"Don't complain, Sean, you're a big star," Frederick patted his shoulder. "You can play a role that is much more mature than you are, and you can help "Genius Ripley" win the weekend box office

At the top of the rankings, you are one of the youngest nominees for Best Actor in the Golden Globe Drama Films. Are you still dissatisfied with it?"

"Okay, I'm just talking." Sean quickly raised his hand, then thought for a while, and asked: "How about the Golden Globes and Oscars?"

"What aspect? Authority? Or influence?" the agent smiled, "It's absolutely incomparable."

He stretched out his hands and drew two exaggerated circles, repeating his words again: "It's absolutely impossible to compare."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Sean was a little surprised. "The Golden Globe Award is also a very well-known award, right? At least it is higher than the Youth Choice Award or the awards of various associations, right?"

"The popularity is indeed quite high, but its status is similar to the awards of various associations. How authoritative can the awards selected by less than 100 media reporters be?" Frederick seemed a little disdainful, "It will affect their choices."

It's really easy. If PR Oscars is very difficult, the PR Golden Globe Award can only be considered an entry-level one."

This is, compared with the Academy of Film and Arts and Sciences, which has 5,000 members who can vote on the Oscar selection, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which hosts the Golden Globe Awards, there are less than 100 journalists who can vote. The operating space here is naturally greater than that of the Oscars.

, So there are scandals coming from time to time, but it was established early after all, and it was an award organized by the Journalists Association, so it is still well-known today.

"In this case..." Sean thought of other aspects, but unfortunately he was interrupted by the other party before he could say it: "Don't think about it. Although there is a little possibility, the chance is quite small, even if the Golden Globe Awards are

Public relations are the easiest, and it must be based on a certain foundation. Now you have too little qualifications. Unless a member of the Press Association suddenly feels that it is necessary to make some shocking actions, otherwise, even if you spend millions of money on it.

Public relations is just to increase the probability of 5% to 20%.

Then, the agent patted his arm again: "But don't worry, Sean, as long as you keep it, it won't be difficult to win the Golden Globes, even Sylvester, Stallone and Tom Cruise

Have won the Golden Globe Award. So don’t look too much on it. You should have bigger goals, such as the Oscars. Of course, don’t think about it this year. It’s already great to be nominated for the Golden Globe Award.”

"Okay, I get it." Sean raised his hand.

After chatting for a few more words, Frederick left. Sean breathed a sigh of relief again, but before he could fully exhale, another familiar person appeared in front of him. It seemed that it would be difficult to relax tonight.

"Hi, Sean, I didn't expect you to be in. I thought you were in the center of the hall." Gwyneth was wearing a lake-green one-shoulder evening dress, with golden hair tied behind her head, wearing light makeup, and looked quite good.

Beautiful.

"You are as beautiful as ever, Gwyne," Sean couldn't help but say, "this dress is perfect for your eyes."

"You can talk as always, Sean." Gwyneth smiled, and then added, "Not at all to your age."

Her eyes were a little erratic, and her eyes looked at Sean also became a little complicated. Perhaps after knowing his real age, it was too strange that she felt that she would be attracted to him in Italy.

"Some things are not related to age," Sean said, then changed the subject, "You said you thought I was in the center of the hall, why should I be there?"

"Don't you know? You are the person everyone wants to meet the most tonight. Everyone wants to know what kind of 19-year-old young man can do this." Speaking of this, Gwyneth's eyes are more

He became more and more curious.

Although she was looked at like this, Sean sighed in her heart. You know, when she met her at the premiere before, she kept a little distance.

"Yes, what kind of 19-year-old can do this." A familiar voice came, and Jude and Hoffman walked over.

"You guy, you dare to hide your age. You are only 19 years old. It's too much." Although Jude looked fierce and wanted to grab his collar to question him, he had a look in his eyes.

With a smile.

"I didn't mean it." Sean said in a sincere tone as he looked innocent.

"I absolutely don't believe it, Sean, I absolutely don't." Jude stretched out his finger and poked it on his shoulder. "You should be glad that if I knew this when I first joined the crew, you would be dead

.”

"Okay, then how can I compensate you so that you can forgive me magnanimously?" Sean sighed.

"Don't worry about him, Sean, he's just jealous." Hoffman smiled and pulled Jude away, "But I really didn't expect that you were only 19 years old. At this age, I still want to make an appointment with me.

The girls in the troupe are out."

Sean could hear that Hoffman was telling the truth, he was such a person, as if he could be calm about anything. In comparison, although Jude was joking, he still showed a little jealousy.

That sentence is largely true. If he knew that he was only 19 or 18 years old when he joined the crew, he would probably be embarrassed.

But now our relationship is familiar with each other and the movie is also very good, so that little bit of jealousy does not affect anything. Gwyneth originally wanted to say something, but in Jude and Hoffman

After appearing, he finally gave up this plan, chatted for a few words and then said goodbye and left.

If I thought it was like this tonight, it would be a big mistake. A few minutes after Gwyneth left, Mingla and a fat man with a big belly came over.

"Look, our heroes turned out to be here, so I found a lot of time." Weinstein laughed and held Sean's hand, which was completely different from the cold appearance at the premiere,"

Look at our young man, how energetic."

"Hello, Mr. Weinstein, I'm so happy to see you here." Sean still had that tone of neither humility nor arrogant.

"Harvey, call me Harvey," Weinstein's eyes were almost crescent-shaped, and then looked at Jude and Hoffman, "Can you let Anthony and I talk to Sean?"

Miramax's boss said this, and of course they would not refuse. They said hello to Sean and left.

"Oh, Sean, Sean, what should I say?" Weinstein sighed, stretched out his hand and slapped hard on both arms, "You really surprised me.

, You are so outstanding.”

"Well..." Sean, who was a little uncomfortable with this enthusiasm, wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by the other party.

"I know what you want to say, Sean, but I believe you can understand a producer's concerns, right?" Weinstein patted his arm vigorously again, "Don't take this to heart, you're a

A very good actor, you will have a bright future, and Anthony thinks so too."

He said as he looked at Mingla beside him, who smiled and nodded at Sean, then coughed lightly.

Weinstein then showed a sudden look and then took out something from his pocket: "I remember the crew gave you only 300,000 yuan in pay, right? It's too little, too little, this doesn't reflect your value at all,

So after the discussion, Anthony and I decided to give you some compensation as a reward for you.”

He said as he handed the paper folded in his hand to Sean. It was a check. After opening it and seeing the numbers clearly, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. It was 1.5 million!
