In a luxurious Chinese restaurant, Tom Cruise, Paula Wagner, Rick Niceta, and Ronald sat together.
The dishes in high-end restaurants are not large, but very rich. Baked escargot, foie gras, steak, prawns, and other delicacies, paired with rosé wine produced in Alsace, several people had a great time eating.
Tom Cruise raised his glass to greet Ronald. Niceta and his wife Paula also raised their glasses.
"Thank you very much. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today." Tom Cruise is very energetic, from supporting his debut to sending him to the dentist, as well as "Top Gun" and "Fantasy" that have been widely praised by the industry.
Thanks Ronald for your help.
Paula Wagner's gratitude is the most sincere. She no longer acts as Ronald's agent, but instead straightens out the relationship in terms of interests. Paula, who serves Tom Cruise wholeheartedly, is grateful to Cruise for completing his career.
Ronald is grateful for the most important step to stardom.
The industry is very well-informed. The finished film of "Top Gun" is extremely good. Everyone knows that Tom Cruise will skyrocket once the movie is released next year.
The other Ronald was less helpful, but still important.
After the report about the Hollywood "boy gang" came out, although Paula helped Tom Cruise to clear up the relationship immediately, but when put together with the names of those bad boys who only care about picking up girls, taking advantage, and having sex every night,
There's always damage to Cruise's reputation.
This time, because of the First Lady's commendation to him, this trouble was completely solved unexpectedly. The "Dyslexia Outstanding Person Award" presented by Nancy gave Tom Cruise a hard-working student for no reason.
The character design has completely distanced itself from the bad boy gang headed by Emilio.
"Mr. Cruise, your phone call is from Minnie."
High-end restaurants often have celebrities coming to eat, and what they need is the tranquility of ordinary people. Therefore, the waiters here have been trained and will never come up to ask for autographs during the meal.
Tom smiled shyly, stood up and went to the corridor to answer the phone.
"Oh my god."
Paula Wagner banged her head on the table.
"What's wrong?" Ronald looked strange, "Whose phone number is it? Whose code name is Minnie Mouse?"
Paula raised her head and drank the rosé wine in her glass.
"It's Xue'er."
"Huh? Them?" Ronald suddenly figured it out. These two seemed to have known each other at Madonna's wedding.
"I'm very troubled, and I can't ignore it or take too much care." Paula Wagner looked very sad. "His ex-girlfriend Rebecca De Mornay was a perfect match. It's a pity that they don't have much feelings for each other.
"
As Tom Cruise's top agent, Paula began to manage the influence.
She must not let this relationship be exposed. Paula strictly ordered that the two of them could only date in private and never be photographed by reporters. Therefore, when making phone calls, they used cartoon characters as code names.
Paula also had an additional task for no reason, which was to help Tom Cruise and Cher match up and find an opportunity to fly out for a date together.
"Would this relationship cause such a big problem if it were made public?" Ronald didn't quite understand.
"This is a mutual decision made between us and Xueer's manager after we had a meeting and quarreled."
"Xueer looks well-maintained, very fashionable, and elegant. Can't fans accept it?"
"No, they are too different in age. Cher is sixteen years older than Tom. She is already thirty-nine this year, and she started her career as a singer, so her age is no secret."
Tom Cruise began to accumulate a huge number of female fans, which was both his asset and his curse.
Ronald knew a little bit about the power of stars. When a movie project was established, no one, whether it was a major studio or an independent producer, could guarantee which movie would be a hit.
But if a star is willing to star in a script written by an unknown new screenwriter, then the star will naturally attract many viewers to watch the genre film he stars in. In this way, there will naturally be a market foundation, and producers will often
Will go from being uninterested to actively promoting the project.
But these blessings are by no means free. Stars must conform to the imagination of the audience. Just like the late action star Steve McQueen. As long as he is willing to drive a car and drive for a while, and then beat a few villains,
When you get together with the heroine, the audience likes to watch it.
The other types of roles he played were ignored at the box office.
Therefore, Steve McQueen must stick to his bad boy and macho persona. In life, he also drives cars, picks up girls, and smokes. What may be bad habits for others turn into advantages for him. Unfortunately, smoking is too fierce.
He passed away from lung cancer very young.
Tom Cruise is positive, upbeat, and full of energy. Fans' expectations for him are to fall in love and get married with a gentle woman of the same age as him. Cher is sixteen years older than Cruise. Once it is made public, it will be easy
He will lose the support of fans. And if he loses the support of fans, Tom will no longer be a rising star in Hollywood.
But on the other hand, as an agent, you can't interfere too much in a celebrity's private life.
After all, you are just his agent. Even if you are a family member, in America, which advocates freedom, it is difficult for you to interfere in your personal emotional life.
Moreover, agents are also a vulnerable group when dealing with famous stars. It is common sense that if they do not do well, they will be fired.
So Paula Wagner swung between two directions, trying hard to maintain a balance. The financial teams of the two stars were all made miserable by the sudden love.
"Ronald", Tom Cruise came back and sat down with a smile on his face.
"How long will you stay in Los Angeles?"
"I'm going to Chicago soon. Director Scorsese has confirmed the filming date, and Mr. Paul Newman also called me. I will meet them. This is my first time with the actor.
acting."
The four chatted for a while, and Paula paid the bill. She sent Cruise to the Hilton Hotel first, as Cher wanted to see him today.
Ronald and Niceta stayed behind and continued to drink rosé wine and enjoy desserts.
"Paula, thank you very much. Nancy's commendation has solved Tom's biggest hidden danger, which was being associated with the Bad Boys Gang."
"Being a gangster is not without its benefits." Ronald took a small bite of pudding. "At least teenagers admire them."
Now the name "Boy Gang" has gradually expanded its scope. It is no longer limited to the male actors in that report, but also includes several actresses who played together.
The brats recognized by the media are now the actors who have appeared in the movies "The Breakfast Club" and "St. Elmo's Fire". Demi Moore and Ally Sheedy are also now considered the brats.
Official member.
"I don't understand something." Ronald raised it and was gently shaken. "Why does the First Lady Nancy always come to me? In fact, I don't have a particularly deep relationship with her.
How about doing his son a favor like me and the deputy commander’s wife, Barbara.”
"I have inquired about this matter from many sources." Niceta obviously attaches great importance to the relationship between Ronald and the White House.
He leaned closer and lowered his voice, "There are rumors in Hollywood that Nancy is a serious astrology enthusiast. Since the commander-in-chief was shot in 1981, any schedule or personnel changes must be discussed with the new astrologer.
.Maybe you have the same zodiac sign as him."
Ronald was stunned, but if he thought about it carefully, it was very possible.
"Are Barbara and Nancy's zodiac signs particularly incompatible?" Ronald thought of the contradiction between the two ladies.
"Then who knows? Anyway, you should be careful when dating Nancy and don't do anything inappropriate. Ronald, you have a great future. The movies you shoot exceed everyone's expectations every time. Hollywood will be your future
Get what you want, don't get involved in the complexities of Washington."
"I understand."
Ronald thought to himself that Douglas Jr. had already reminded himself of this, "But First Lady Nancy has seen the trick, so I'd better just do what she asked me to do. Just don't try to cling to her."
"You have always been wise." Niceta clinked glasses with him, "I never have to worry about you like I worry about other clients of CAA."
"What happened again?" Ronald seemed to have something in his words.
"It's not Stallone yet, now Mr. Ovitz is worried about him every day."
"Pfft", Ronald was in a good mood, "Have another drink."
"Tell me, what happened to him? Our baby Rocky."
"Do you remember Schwarzenegger's girlfriend? The one who starred with him in 'Excalibur' was named Bridget Nielsen."
"Remember, what happened to her?" Ronald saw her at Cameron's place.
"She is now Stallone's girlfriend."
"Huh?" Ronald asked in surprise, and in his mind he began to imagine the scene of two action stars fighting over an actress.
"Schwarzenegger is pursuing a girl from the Kennedy family. But it's hard to get rid of Brigitte. I heard that Schwarzenegger secretly sent naked photos of Brigitte Nielsen to Stallone through his agent.
agent."
"Isn't it?" Ronald suddenly heard such explosive gossip and couldn't digest it for a while.
"If we didn't even know this, we wouldn't have to be CAA's agents." Niceta replied with a smile.
"You also know our Sylvester (Sly). Although he is as strong as a bull, his ability to pick up girls is average. With such a ready-made beauty, of course they will be inseparable quickly. In Rocky 4, Bu was also given
Brigitte plays a small role as the villain's wife. Stallone is now trying to find a script that would allow him and Brigitte to play the leading role."
"Hahahaha..." After listening to Niceta's narration in a low voice, Ronald couldn't help but laugh out loud.
