The hotel placed a bottle of Veuve Clicquot champagne and a large plate of fresh strawberries in the room.
Ronald opened the champagne and poured two glasses of wine. A fruity aroma came out, which was even more intense when paired with strawberries.
I turned on the stereo and tuned to the music channel, which was playing a popular song in the country.
The song was very gentle, and the female singer's voice was very ethereal. Ronald and Juliette Binoche started dancing. With a soft and slow rhythm, the two danced closer and closer. Ronald held her soft waist.
, no further action is taken.
Binoche was dressed very casually, and there was a pure and beautiful feeling about him, like a female student. Ronald looked into the other person's eyes, which seemed to be full of enthusiasm and concentration. For a moment, he seemed to have returned to the seventeenth century
Eight years ago, there was also such a pair of eyes looking at me.
"What's the name of this song and what's it about?" Ronald changed the topic.
"Go there (la-bas)" Binoche translated a few words:
"over there
Everything is new, everything is wild
Free continent, no fences
Here, our dreams are narrow
That's why I'm going there"
"It seems to be singing about you. You should try it at Hollywood in the Atlantic Ocean." Ronald, who had returned to normal, looked at the beauty in his arms and said with a smile.
"If you can make a movie that makes me excited, I will go." Juliette Binoche is already 24 years old, but she still looks like she was eighteen years old. Ronald held her hand and sat on the big bed.
, on the white sheets, there is a slight pleasant smell that comes from being exposed to sunlight during the day, and gradually merges with the smell of Binoche.
…
Juliette Binoche was lying in Ronald's arms, drawing circles on Ronald's chest with one hand.
"Can I call you Ronan? This name means little seal in French. You really looked like a little seal today, very energetic."
"I'm very happy to have your approval, Mademoiselle", Ronald's big hands hugged Binoche's back again.
"Oh... you are really a good... um, how should I say it, amant, but not my ideal um, amour."
When Juliette Binoche heard the word recognition, she had a little misunderstanding, so she raised half of her body seriously and explained to Ronald.
"You know my French," Ronald made a low gesture, "Is there any difference between the two?"
"Amant (lover) is the passion for each other's body, but there is no close emotional connection. amour (lover), the one who loves is the lover. Love is a powerful force that can lead to personal growth...
Passion can bring excitement, intensity, and intoxication, but it is not a guarantee of a long-term relationship."
Ronald saw what she said was interesting and thought it was quite cute that this woman was seriously discussing this kind of love affair between a man and a woman. He joked, "So the excitement and intensity I bring to you are first-rate?"
"Super (French pronunciation is similar to Supa, super first-class)... hahaha", Juliette Binoche burst into laughter and hit Ronald.
Encouraged by the correct method, Ronald brushed away a few hairs covering her cheeks with his hands, kissed her gently, and then turned over.
"Oh, oh, I've had enough, enough, Ronan, I've had enough today...ah, hahaha..."
Binoche did not expect that this super little seal was still passionate, and the intensity coming from her hands was also very high. She was already a little overwhelmed and began to beg for mercy.
"I think the intensity may give you a good enough impression, and we will have the opportunity to communicate slowly in the future."
"Ah, hahaha, communication is an important aspect of love, but we can't do it today." Binoche jumped out of bed and hid on the sofa on the other side. He was sweating so much that he wouldn't be able to get up if he did it again tomorrow.
"Who says no, I see you are still very excited." Ronald also jumped out of bed and chased after him. Binoche became more naughty and jumped up from the sofa and hid behind. The two played hide and seek.
After all, Ronald had been practicing for many years. After a fake move, he held Binoche in his arms. Then he used his strength to pick her up and put her on the wooden table in the room.
A rough touch came from underneath her body, and the hot body of the little seal was on the other side. Juliette Binoche quickly closed her eyes, as if she couldn't bear the heat and collapsed.
…
"Are you awake? Breakfast is here. I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I ordered one." Early the next morning, Binoche just woke up and saw Ronald spreading French bread with butter on the dining table.
Bread, and then eat breakfast in small sips with black tea.
"Well... coming soon." Juliette Binoche was a little disappointed. Shouldn't breakfast be eaten in bed with her lover? The little seal still looked too much like a businessman.
After washing, she also sat across from Ronald, picked up a small croissant, paired it with a piece of yogurt, and vegetables and ate it.
After Ronald finished eating, he went to make phone calls to deal with business matters, and pointed to Binoche on the sofa.
She stretched her head and saw that it was a black sleeveless dress. Ronald had asked someone to buy it for him.
Binoche, who was only wearing a large Ronald white shirt, picked up the skirt and made signs on her body. The little seal was still too successful and rich. She preferred the kind of man full of artistic talent.
But when it comes to lovers, that little seal is so qualified. Thinking of this, she went to the bathroom to change into high heels. Suddenly her student temperament was gone, and a beautiful woman appeared in front of the mirror. "Well,
There are good things for a businessman to be a lover."
In the afternoon, Ronald took the beautiful Binoche on his arm and went to the premiere of "The World". Daydream's colleagues made this film that was only shown in the screening very lively, and compared with many participating in the competition
The premiere of the film in the unit will be even grander.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cannold and Bernstine came to Cannes a week in advance, and their ability to handle these things is no less than that of the Cannes Film Festival in the previous two years.
Outside the festival advertising, Yoram with a rounded cannon.
Many Hollywood stars came to support the premiere. Everyone in the country was very united.
Harvey Weinstein saw the scene of Daydream, and the posters on the scene became a sea of Jean-Claude Van Damme and Brooke Shields. He admired him very much. His Miramax also wanted to be the one to get pre-registered films in Europe.
Ronald's marketing skills gave him a lot of inspiration. Miramax felt that it was planning to turn to awards-oriented films, and it could follow suit.
Thinking of this, he ignored the fact that yesterday he had arrogantly looked down on a small B-level movie studio like Ronald. He came over in a haughty manner, forced a smile on his face, and congratulated Ronald.
Ronald actually doesn't dislike this kind of real villain. This kind of person is the best at sizing up the situation. As long as there is money to be made, he can talk about anything. However, he can't make any suggestions to Harvey. He came to Cannes to sell movies.
Harvey is here to judge the award.
Harvey also specifically mentioned the party last night, which was attended by many Chinese and other European female stars, and said he would introduce it to Ronald. This made Binoche next to Ronald look unhappy.
"Why didn't you see Natasha?" Ronald found that Sharon Stone was the only one beside Harvey today, and Natasha Kinski did not appear at the ceremony with him.
"Haha..." Harvey Weinstein laughed. It can't be said that Kinski stopped flattering himself because he hooked up with British director Chris Menges at the party last night.
"She left with Menges who made the documentary. Ha, it's really funny. Who wants to watch this kind of movie about racial discrimination in Zimbabwe? It's better to watch the documentary." The big mouth next to him, Sharon Stone, said
Harvey's situation was revealed.
"I don't know, I can't guess the taste of the Cannes judges." Ronald suppressed his laughter. It seems that Harvey Weinstein must have promised her some kind of heroine or something.
Harvey's face didn't look good. He didn't expect that such a sexy blonde with a college degree could be so ignorant and vulgar.
"When I was shooting in Africa, I saw the staff there. They were not good people..." Sharon Stone began to talk about the past when he was filming the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" follow-up exploitation film for Cannon.
When Ronald heard that he was so boring, he quickly excused himself and ran away.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a couple walking in. The man in front looked unhappy, and the beautiful woman in the back kept smoothing his clothes and seemed to be apologizing.
"Why should I come to the premiere of this kind of movie?" Andrei Zulawski, the Polish director, is the boy who seems to have grown up. He looks unhappy.
"You must have a distributor willing to sign an agreement for your new film in order to attract investment. I heard from Gaumont's friends that this company has some distribution capabilities in America and is also willing to introduce foreign films."
The beautiful Sophie Marceau, I don’t know whether she plays Zulawski’s lover or his mother. She must take good care of him in everything, whether it is life or career.
"Welcome, Miss Sophie Marceau, Director Zulawski." Ronald was introduced by Michelle Cannold and exchanged pleasantries with the two of them.
"I heard that you also want to introduce some European films?" Sophie Marceau began to help build relationships for Zulawski's new film.
"I don't care about individual movies. You can talk more with our Daydream distribution director, Michelle. In addition, Hollywood hopes you can come. If you are willing to come and film..." Ronald said
Marceau introduced him to Cannold, who was also French and could speak French fluently.
"No, no, Sophie will not make those commercial films." Zulawski understood the word Hollywood and rudely interrupted Ronald's invitation.
"Hahaha, this is why we came to China. There are many artists here who have not fully realized their potential." Ronald secretly shot back.
Sophie Marceau smiled apologetically, exchanged contact information with Michelle Cannold, and then pulled Zulawski in.
"Well, don't invest in any of this director's works. His movies won't sell at all in America." Ronald grabbed Michelle Cannold and whispered in his ear.
"Understood, I think Sophie should go to Hollywood. There is no other place in the world where she can realize her potential." Michelle Cannold also took a fancy to beautiful actresses. This kind of beauty with a foreign style will always be there.
He is a welcome figure in Hollywood.
Ronald and Bernstine also exchanged a few words, held the hand of Juliette Binoche who was coming over, asked her to hold hers, and they walked in slowly.
"Uh... It's really scary." Ronald let out a deep breath. The couples in the entertainment industry he had seen in the past two days were really scary.
Natasha Kinski treated her Egyptian husband as if he was there at the drop of a hat, flirting openly with other people in the acting circle.
And Sophie Marceau takes care of Zulawski just like a mother takes care of her children.
These two extreme situations are actually very uncomfortable in any marriage. As with Binoche, it is better for the two to be amants (lovers) or even partenaire sexuel than to get married.
What's more, if a marriage in Hollywood gets divorced, not only will you lose emotions, but you will also lose money...
…
The screening results of "The World of Fighters" were good, and many European film buyers waved their checks and wanted to sign a contract with Cannold.
Maybe it’s the difference in aesthetics, maybe it’s because not many Hollywood movies have been introduced to China and Europe in recent years, and the aesthetics of the audience here seems to be several years behind America. And in recent years, film technology has
and directing techniques have greatly developed over the years.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Therefore, this movie, which was only barely qualified at the box office in America, was actually very popular at the Cannes Film Market. Ronald was also surprised
, stayed for a day, chatted with every cinema manager who spent money to buy copies, and listened to their opinions.
After the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, Ronald sent Juliette Binoche back to Paris. At this film festival, she neither participated in the film nor was a judge. She was always hanging around there and was suspected of being gossiped about.
It happened that Konchalovsky's drama had to be rehearsed for the second half of the tour, so the two left early.
Binoche went to rehearse a play and was very busy. Ronald rested alone in Paris and took a good look at some famous attractions, including Notre Dame, Les Invalides, and the Louvre. Three days after arriving, Richard made arrangements.
I also came to Paris to join him.
"Michelle Pfeiffer and the others have finished filming the exterior scenes at Count Valmont's home, and are about to return to the Palace of Versailles, which is only 12 miles away from Paris, to continue shooting. There is the Montasière Theater there, and the crew will rent it to shoot scenes in the opera house. We
I happened to go over there and Pfeiffer was on the set, watching the director's arrangements."
"Okay, I haven't been to the Palace of Versailles yet." Ronald didn't care, and he and Richard drove to this large palace that originally belonged to the King of France the next day.
An exterior scene was being filmed at the filming site, and Ronald and Richard were watching from a distance. Accompanying them was the crew's butler, a senior on-site production manager from Warner Bros.
"Michelle has been in good condition recently. The director liked her role very well, and her chemistry with Count Valmont was first-rate." The production director knew that Ronald came to Michelle Pfeiffer to discuss the next film.
So I only pick the good ones, there is no harm in flattering you two anyway.
"She's top notch..." Ronald agreed casually.
He covered his forehead with his hands and looked at the opposite side of the backlight. A young and handsome young man with a very upright face was talking to a somewhat green actress. The two seemed to be rehearsing.
"This must be Count Valmont, and young Cecil?"
In the movie "Dangerous Liaisons", Count Valmont is the protagonist, a playboy. Cecil was originally raised in a monastery and prepared to marry a big shot. But Valmont was because of his relationship with a noblewoman, the Marchioness of Metville.
The bet seduced Cecil.
"No, the girl is Cecil, the boy is not." The production manager laughed, and everyone who came to the set would admit their mistake.
"The actress is Uma Thurman, who has just entered Hollywood...the actor is Keanu Reeves, who is also acting in a big production for the first time, and is not good enough to play Count Valmont."
"Oh, is he playing Danny the Chevalier?" Danny is Cecil's true love in "Dangerous Liaisons". So the only person acting with her, besides Valmont, is Cecil. Ronald guessed this.
"Bingo... let's go sit there for a while. I'll ask the director about his arrangements. If nothing happens, I'll give Miss Pfeiffer a half-day holiday..."
Ronald and Richard found two seats outside and sat down. The filming process of this kind of costume film is obviously very slow. Various costumes, makeup, and hairstyles require much more preparation and talent than modern dramas.
Make sure there is no mess during daily shooting.
Moreover, the costumes are corseted and floor-length skirts, making it difficult to move freely, so the actors usually don't come out until filming.
"If Danny is cast by such a handsome actor, how handsome would Valmont be?" Ronald thought to himself, there are not many people in Hollywood who are qualified in terms of appearance, and it would be almost the same if Tom came. Could it be a hairdo?
Chinese actor?
"The two of them sneaked together again?" Ronald, who was sitting on the chair, noticed that the script crew, stage managers, and props-looking people from the back were gossiping, and he couldn't help but turn around and take a look. The crew was very lonely filming.
Yes, it’s not surprising for a man and a woman to have an affair if they see each other.
"You're new here, you didn't see the big gossip from the past two days. Mary and I both saw it, Pfeiffer and..."
"Everyone move... move..." The production manager on the opposite set had already returned. When he saw these staff members gossiping together again, he immediately got angry and asked them to go to work. This is also his most important job on set.
One, let employees stop being lazy.
Ronald's eyebrows furrowed. Is Michelle Pfeiffer having an extramarital affair? No, she is the type who would rather not live apart in two places for the sake of love and companionship.
Perhaps for rehearsal, Pfeiffer played the particularly chaste Madame de Tourville, who was seduced by Count Valmont in the play. In the end, she actually gave up her reputation for chastity and really fell in love with the playboy Valmont, which changed Valmont.
Monkey's fate.
Didn't the production manager just say that Pfeiffer and Valmont's chemistry was good? The handyman must have seen the rehearsal and spread the gossip.
This kind of crew is not the same as the one directed by Ronald. The filming locations are all original versions of the film, and the crew is large, so some imperfections are inevitable.
"The director agreed. Let's go sit in the lounge inside first. Miss Pfeiffer's manager is not here. You guys wait there while I go and hurry."
Ronald and Richard sat down in the lounge again. This place used to be the office of the Versailles Tourism Organization and was rented by the crew as a lounge. Now there is no one there.
The two soon became bored, and Ronald wandered around the Palace of Versailles. Richard asked him not to go too far, and he stayed in the lounge to wait.
Ronald indicated that he knew that after leaving the lounge, there were tall buildings and neat gardens. After walking around twice, the scenery was the same, and he felt bored, so Ronald went back.
However, he seemed a little lost. When he saw a large corridor that looked a bit like the lounge just now, Ronald walked quickly.
"Well...well...I love you..."
"I love you……"
A gentle moan came from me, as if a man and a woman were kissing me.
Ronald turned the corner, and in the corner where the sun didn't shine, a man and a woman were hugging each other, inseparably talking about love and kissing.
"ah……"
The woman discovered Ronald and screamed loudly.
"Michelle?" Ronald discovered that it was Michelle Pfeiffer in costume.
"Is it you, Ronald?" The man also turned around and saw that he was an acquaintance.
"It's you? Why are you here?" Ronald was also startled. This man was also wearing ancient costumes. He couldn't be playing the role of Count Valmont, a playboy, right? He looked so frustrated.
"How could it be you?" Ronald called again. This actor was John Malkovich, whom he met when he was filming a movie in Xujiahui.
He plays Count Valmont?
No, he was having an affair with Michelle Pfeiffer?
Who is this blind?
"Ah..." Michelle Pfeiffer was discovered to have an affair, and it was discovered by Ronald. All kinds of complicated emotions came to her heart, and she covered her face with her hands and turned away.
"Ronald", John Malkovich rushed up, not caring about anything else, and pulled Ronald's arm with trembling hands, "I beg you, don't tell others..."
"Uh... I didn't see anything," Ronald held back for a long time. These two were both married, so how did they get together?
And he was even seen by himself.
And he still cheated on Malkovich who was so frustrated?
Why is it that the marriages of movie stars I have met recently are like hell?
