"Hey, baby, shall we eat French food tonight?"

And Jessica agreed on the time and place for tonight. Andy and Melissa can also go home to accompany their family, especially Drake. Now he obviously regrets it. He complained to Daniel several times. Melissa is too Busy, so busy that he doesn't even see his daughter anymore. However, after Cusa returned, Melissa was much more relaxed, so Drake didn't have the heart to get her out of Daniel's team just yet.

In fact, at this critical point, it is impossible to do so. The awards season is not too far away. Drake is an important network resource for Daniel. Big names in the industry are all part of Cusa's work.

Nonetheless, Daniel and Jessica have routine dates every Saturday night, and they are very busy, especially Daniel, who has been so busy lately that it was originally envisaged that "Gladiator" will be relaxed after the release, and Jay Sika's plans to go on vacation to Florida or the Caribbean had to be shelved, but fortunately, Jessica's new series is about to be released, and in October, she also has a lot of publicity itinerary.

Every Saturday, the two always take time out from their busy affairs to have a meal together, which is crucial for maintaining relationships. Physical needs may be overlooked in busy work, but emotional vacancies are sometimes There may be serious consequences.

"Are you going to New Zealand soon?"

Jessica tore a small piece of bread into her mouth and asked inquiringly.

This girl has also become more and more mature in recent months, Horner has become less involved in them, and Jessica's access control has also been cancelled. Obviously, on the one hand, the relationship has been recognized, on the other hand It was also Jessica that increasingly reassured her agent and family.

Daniel nodded, "Yes, it won't be long before I have to come back to film Bournemouth at the end of October. It can't be delayed any longer."

Having said that, Daniel reached out and wiped Jessica's lips and wiped off the jam, "I'm sorry, my dear, I'm too busy, I'll have to find some time when I shoot my "Spy" To accompany you on vacation, where do you want to go?"

"Daniel, I understand." Jessica was not forced , you have to work hard to do film work, or the opportunity will slip away."

"Thank you for your understanding, Jessica, you are such an understanding girl."

After eating, the two of them left in batches and then met at the hotel.

The tense body, the enthusiastic response, and the intermittent **** in his ears all made Daniel enjoy a good night.

A young body is attractive.

Daniel is indeed about to go to New Zealand to continue the filming of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Until late October, he finished his work there, returned to Los Angeles, and immediately joined the group to shoot "Bourne Bourne". There is also a busy awards ceremony. Ji, Daniel has to deal with all kinds of judges, which is a new job and challenging for him.

Before that, he had to finish all the finishing touches on "Legal Blonde" in Los Angeles, which took some time. Although MGM didn't say anything, his work should be completed on time. This is a profession. Moral demands, Daniel has no intention of being a arrogant person.

Speaking of MGM, the current "Legal Blonde" can be regarded as attracting a lot of attention, and it has become popular in advance. At the beginning, Daniel got 2 million plus 5% of the profit share, and now it seems a little bit Foresight, according to expectations, Daniel's salary for this film is basically around 3 million, which seems to be very cost-effective at present.

According to Cusa's arrangement, this kind of film that simply consumes popularity, if it is less than 8 million, Daniel should not take it again.

Therefore, MGM has picked up a priceless bargain, so in the treatment of Daniel's itinerary, as long as it can accommodate, generally there will be no obstacles. To a certain extent, MGM wants to cooperate in other films. The desire is stronger than that of Daniel. Their financial pressure has always been great, and in recent years, there have been no big lucrative films, and cooperating with stars with high box office freshness is an important guarantee.

During this period, the overseas box office of "Gladiator" also exceeded 150 million, and the total global box office has reached 300 million. For "Gladiator", which has invested more than 100 million yuan, this is not a big box office figure. , but in any case, it is a successful investment by Universal - it made money, and has a good reputation. There are not too many such films in their film library. Up to now, IMDB still has a high score of 8.7, and it has more than 80% on Rotten Tomatoes. There is no doubt that Universal has made a classic this time.

Daniel has been number one on the IMDB list for quite some time. With Shanying's brief report and intensive media coverage, it is not unthinkable that he surpasses the familiar Russell Crowe. This reaction concerns The list of degrees is always good for new faces.

Yes, a new face. For the real movie theater regulars, Daniel is of course a new face. For gossip magazine lovers, Crowe has always been a regular visitor. Relatively speaking, Daniel is much fresher than Crowe, there is no doubt.

The two are not too competitive, which is good news for Daniel.

Universal and Crowe himself spent huge sums of money on public relations Oscar, which is not a secret to many people. The public relations of this kind of power will have a great impact as long as Daniel is swept into the tail of a typhoon. Of course, Universal will also play a role. After all, the box office of "Gladiator" is what they care about the most. If it wins the Oscar, then the box office of "Gladiator" will definitely have a wave in the United States and overseas, especially overseas. Small climax, this kind of box office increase of tens of millions at every turn, compared with public relations investment, of course it is very worthwhile.

After another warm night with Jessica, Daniel got on the plane to New Zealand. There was no way to do a lot of work in person, so he had to hand it over to Kusa and Fred. He participated in the New Zealand network and was in the hacking team of Mountain Eagle. Under the protection, there is no need to worry about revealing commercial secrets.

Daniel, who returned to New Zealand this time, is not comparable to the last time. At Auckland Airport, New Zealand movie fans who came to pick up the plane held a sign with the image of Commodius, which was still very eye-catching.

Lena of the Daily Wellington got the chance to interview her boyfriend Josh, who is not happy anymore, and he is no longer a fan of Daniel - with Lena becoming a die-hard Daniel.

Daniel gave a brief interview, which Francis reminded him intentionally. Being close to the people can consolidate his popularity and image in this small island country. People living in the island country are always a little stingy. satisfy their minds.

"Hey, hello." Daniel saw Lena at a glance, the "Daily" reporter asked him to sign his autograph, and he was also a participant in the Elf incident, "Nice to meet you."

Although she was trembling with excitement, and the female reporters around her were all casting envious glances, Lina still kept the restraint of a journalist, neither drooling nor screaming wildly.

"Yes, very good, Daniel, welcome to New Zealand again, how about it, how long will it take to shoot this time? I remember you seem to be filming The Bourne Bourne?"

She looked for an opportunity to ask her own questions, and after interviewing Daniel, Tasia, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Wellington, an acquaintance of Peter Jackson and Francis, began to slightly change the direction of the social edition's coverage, some of the attention paid to Oceania. Celebrities also began to appear in the "Daily" page.

"I'm very happy to be back in beautiful New Zealand again. I'm glad everyone will like "Gladiator". Yes, I'm here to shoot "The Lord of the Rings." As for the next job, it is indeed the training and shooting of "The Bourne Bourne", and I have to do some professional training."

After answering three questions selectively, Andy and the security staff began to keep saying "thank you" while escorting Daniel out of the airport.

This time, the film crew is in intensive shooting, and it is not the first time for Daniel to come here, so there is no welcome party, but in getting along, Daniel obviously feels a lot of differences. UU reading www.uukanshu.com In addition to some familiar actors, many staff members are a lot more polite to him.

Dominic and Elijah were most interested in his arrival, as was Gandalf MacLean.

"Hey, Elf, Hugh Jackman asked me to have a good talk with you." This is how McClain started when he met him.

Daniel certainly knew what he meant.

Magneto in "X-Men" is played by McLean. He actually took time to go back to participate in a lot of publicity work before, and he came back a month earlier than Daniel.

One thing Daniel understands very well is that the box office curve of "X-Men" is also the analysis case of Shanying Company. It has 57 million in the first weekend and three days, but so far, the total box office in the two months of its release has just exceeded 100 million. 50 million is almost overtaken by "Gladiator". Of course, it does not mean that its box office is not good. "X-Men" with an investment of 75 million yuan will not make more money than "Gladiator" at least in North America. less.

7.5 points, which is not too low for a commercial film.

So, this is a success, and that's why McLean talked about it so easily, but now the two sides are fighting in overseas markets, "Gladiator" is currently a complete victory, so Hugh Jackman said that it is also worthwhile to teach Daniel a lesson Original.

There was no other way. In the end, Daniel had to be blackmailed by McClain and invited him to have a drink by himself.

This trip brought him a lot of trouble.
