Kate Elizabeth’s eyes are full of fighting spirit:
"Twilight Girl thinks that one movie can scare me away? Impossible!"
Bertram Douglas on the side was unmoved and said with a smile:
"Since the schedule has changed, will I continue to arrange my work? Contact me again if necessary!"
Elbert Blasquez was not dissatisfied at all. Bertram's character was no secret in the industry.
Just curious, "Have you received a new script?"
"Yeah..." Bertram Douglas nodded and smiled: "Just when you decided to change the schedule and speculated whether Twilight Girl was interested in the Oscar, I accepted a new script."
"..." Elbert Blasquez shook his head and laughed: "We are having a headache because of the setback in the release of "The Deep Series", and we are troubled. It doesn't matter if you don't have a headache. This is not your responsibility, but you are still
So casual!”
Bertram Douglas was more calm than he thought: "The shooting started in June and ended at the end of June, with 30 million US dollars... This is very easy. Isn't it better than I have no way to make more efforts for the "Deep Sea Series""
, but is it more meaningful?”
He did not shy away and said with a smile: "Las Vegas is still waiting for my support!"
Bertram Douglas is a gambler, which is no secret in and outside the European and American film circles, but compared to those gamblers who have no lower limit, he is more of a gentleman - perhaps because of his talent, it is easy for him to make money? No need to worry about it.
Worrying about money?
It was no secret that Bertram Douglas was a gambler.
However, his bets have never been big, and he spends almost all of his time in the casinos throughout the year, except for filming and working.
This is also the reason why, up to now, he has such great influence and has not made any big news or big moves in the global film and television industry - he likes to make quick money and spend money, but he does not like to over-market himself or over-expose himself.
Life.
He had a good saying. He said in an interview program:
"No one wants to think that when they are having the most fun, everyone around them is their fans, right? If they see the real me, they might go crazy - that's not what an idol should look like!"
Of course, he didn't say the word gambling.
Because he clearly knows that gambling is not a good thing, it is just his personal bad hobby and purely for entertainment. He can control the intensity, but if it is applied to ordinary people, it is very likely that other people will follow the same example and end up bankrupt.
So he never talks about it in front of the media.
Elbert Blasquez said:
"How can you say it's meaningless? Imagine that if you are willing to come forward and do some marketing, the box office will definitely not be lower than "The Hunger Games·1", and it will definitely be able to compete with the current Twilight·Girl."
Bertram Douglas shook his head and told a very realistic truth.
"I have made too many movies over the years, at least five every year, with both leading and supporting roles. Movie fans have long been accustomed to it - some are good, some are bad.
If I were thirty-seven years old, I dare to say that if I want box office, no actor can compete with me.
Now I'm not sure...if I dare to say this, if I fail, I will become a joke!
Elbert, can you afford this money? If you can... I think I can try it too!"
Immediately, he said again:
"This circle is very realistic, and time will wash away everything. Honors and status are all temporary for the audience in this circle. Movie fans will change over time. I followed you more than ten or twenty years ago.
, the fans and movie fans who followed me a few years ago may have fallen in love with actors and idols that they think are better, more charming, and more attractive to them in these years. They may also have married now and no longer pay attention to movies. Maybe they have entered the movie industry.
Nursing homes, even buried in cemeteries!”
"The battle of public opinion may be won temporarily, but at the same time it will consume the little reputation you have left!"
"I think you've all heard something?"
The gambler's eyes were clearer than anyone else's and he said:
"Don't put all your eggs in one basket, because once the market changes, the company is likely to be severely damaged due to the collapse of the product..."
"You have been fighting with the bankrupt sisters for a long time. You won once, but lost your long-term interests.
Now you want to continue fighting and put all your energy into the "Deep Sea Series"? Even I know that the bankrupt sisters have been acting, silently and secretly filming, and there are still many films in hand that have not appeared. What do you think?
Does it make sense?”
Finally, Bertram Douglas patted his butt, and a gentleman's smile appeared on his handsome face:
"What do you guys think? I have new work to do now, and I will join the team tomorrow. So - let's meet in mid-July?"
After saying that, he walked out of the conference room without looking back.
"What a sober guy! It's so enviable -"
Elbert Blasquez looked at his leaving figure and sighed.
But after all, he is not Bertram Douglas, and the two have different pursuits.
Bertram was content with the present, and he was content with satisfying his own ambitions and kept moving forward!
He crossed his legs and lit a cigarette. After a long while, he sighed and said:
"Although Bertram is very hateful, what he said makes sense - there is really no need for us to put our eggs in one basket, and there is no need to fight with the bankrupt sisters."
"That's right!" Kate Elizabeth smiled, picked up the coffee, and took a sip.
The two people's eyes focused on the next second, and inadvertently, they condensed together.
Neither of them expected that they had such a tacit understanding that they could even see the same answer in each other's eyes.
Almost in unison:
Elbert: "There is no need to fight at the box office. No one wants to struggle with money..."
Kate: "In terms of box office, there is really no need for us to compete viciously. We can get more benefits by being separated..."
As the two of them talked, they couldn't help but smile ambiguously. They seemed to be stronger, but in fact they didn't allow themselves to fail!
"We don't have to fight for the box office and there's no vicious competition, but... we have to fight for the awards!"
Elbert Blasquez said:
"Next year's Academy Awards will be the first time you meet, but it will definitely not be the first time!"
Kate Elizabeth asked with a smile and said:
"So, is our great director Elbert Blasquez... ready for a new movie? I've almost finished the script, and I know the lines on every page by heart, which is head-scratching.
"
"Of course! It has entered the final stage, and the final audition of actors is in progress. Within three months, they will definitely be able to join the cast. I think you will be particularly interested in the cast I have recruited this time, and they will definitely satisfy you.
