"Bang..."
The champagne opened, bubbles spewed out, and the goblets were filled with each other, and then the strange screams of Jonah Hill and Seth Logan, "The Saturn Award for Best Horror Movie! We won the Saturn Award for Best Horror Movie!"
The sounds of the two of them echoed in the backyard, and fortunately, the residents here were far apart, so Murphy didn't have to worry about affecting the neighbors for the time being.
James Franco sat on a chair by the pool, picked up a glass of champagne, and touched Murphy, who was sitting opposite him, "Congratulations!"
Murphy drank it all, "Congratulations!"
No matter what, he is in a good mood to win this Best Horror Film Award, which will also help his future.
Jonah Hill and Seth Logan were still howling, not saying howling, but also twisted at the pool while drinking.
In the newly renovated courtyard, there are two dirty-looking men going crazy, with a bit of a midnight howling.
"You two!" Murphy shouted to them, "The anti-slip at the pool is not done, be careful not to fall!"
After all, this is a rental house. After a while, he simply cleaned up and moved it back from the hotel.
After returning from the Los Angeles Music Center, the four of them were in a good mood. They simply came here to have a small celebration party. They drank a lot of wine before. Jonah Hill and Seth Logan gradually got over the excitement and came back to sit next to Murphy and James Franco.
After the four of them drank a few more drinks, Jonahill suddenly asked, "I heard that your studio is going to add an investment department?"
"I can't just sway in small productions." Murphy put down his goblet and shook his dizzy head. "Mainstream commercial productions have a lot of investment, so I must attract advertising sponsorships. I also need a department that can attract advertising. But now it's just a preliminary idea."
"What do you think of me?" Jonah Hill said clearly that he was drunk and it was difficult to tell whether it was true or false. "I'll be the manager of the investment department for you?"
Murphy raised his eyebrows, "Jona, I'm not going to hit you, will you sell it?"
Jonah Hill slapped the table, "Of course!"
"Okay!" Murphy flipped through his pocket, took out a pen and threw it to Jonah Hill, "Sell it to me."
After taking the pen thrown by Murphy, Jonah Hill thought for a while and said, "This is produced by a Pike company..."
Murphy raised his hand and interrupted him, "It's so old-fashioned!"
Jonah Hill scratched his head, picked up the pen and put it in front of him, not knowing how to continue.
He reached out and snatched the pen, and Murphy threw it to James Franco, saying, "Jim, sell it to me."
James Franco took the pen, turned around his hand, suddenly picked up a napkin on the table and handed it to Murphy, "Are you director Murphy Stanton? I like your movies very much. Can you sign it for me?"
Murphy touched his pocket and took the pen handed over by James Franco, "Did you see it? I need a pen now."
After saying that, he threw the pen on the table.
Jonah Hill blinked, probably understanding what Murphy meant.
But Murphy said directly, "Even Jim is not suitable for this industry. You all have the talent to be an actor, and it is more suitable to participate in film production directly, rather than being a salesperson."
Seth Logan picked up the champagne and filled everyone with it, "Come on, let's continue to celebrate!"
After another glass of wine, Jonah Hill burped, "Today is a special moment for us, do you guys know?"
Murphy and others shook their heads. He mysteriously took out a small bag from his pocket. "I had expected "Saw" to win an award, and I specially prepared some celebrations!"
"Dangdangdang..." He opened the small bag, and there were four white pills inside. "No one is allowed to grab them, each person has only one!"
James Franco picked up one, put it in front of him and looked carefully, "What is this?"
"******!" Jonah Hill picked up one and was about to throw it into his mouth, but was pulled by Murphy next to him. "Wait, Jonah, are you going crazy here? Drowning in the swimming pool?"
"Uh..." Jonah Hill put the pills down again.
"You guys..." Murphy pointed at them, "Don't take drugs casually!"
Jonah Hill and Seth Logan didn't agree, and even James Franko didn't care much.
Although a few people are friends, no one will listen to this kind of persuasion. This is a place where alcohol and drugs are rampant.
Murphy advised him, and saw that the three guys didn't listen at all, and they were too lazy to say anything. They stood up and announced, "The party is over, you can go to other places to take drugs."
"Hey! You guy is too unfaithful, right?" Jonah Hill shouted in dissatisfaction, "Just drive us out like that?"
Murphy stood up and walked towards the main building, leaving only the last advice, "Life is precious, take medicine with caution!"
The party ended, Jonah Hill, Seth Logan and James Franco left here together, Murphy sent them out and explained, "It doesn't matter if you don't listen to me, but you have to find a suitable place to take drugs. Don't let me pick up people in the police station tomorrow."
"You are so long-winded!" The three people waved their hands and left.
Murphy shook his head, closed the door and prepared to go back to rest. He couldn't say anything about this. The whole circle was so popular, and ******* was just a relatively low-level drug popular in Hollywood.
This medicine is mainly used for insomnia in clinical practice. It can cause addiction after being used for a long time and is banned in most countries and regions around the world.
Murphy himself doesn't touch these things, but after entering Hollywood for so long, it's no wonder that such things have happened. In fact, not only the stars in the front screen, but many people behind the scenes are also using this medicine, and a considerable number of people will also use it with alcohol. ******* can enhance the effect through alcohol and have a delirium ability as a substitute for hallucination.
Taking ******* in small doses causes the user to go from a depression state to an extreme neurotic and excited state. Long-term use of **** in can lead to dependence and cause poisonous fetishness.
As soon as he got up the next day, Murphy didn't care about the discomfort of his drunken head, so he hung up the phone to the three guys. Hearing that they were all at James Franco's house, he felt relieved, washed up briefly, went out for breakfast, and drove to the Death Star Building in Century City as agreed.
"Hello, Director Stanton."
As soon as he walked out of the elevator, a staff member came towards him. After seeing him, he immediately stopped and greeted him enthusiastically. Murphy nodded, passed by him, and walked towards Bill Roses's office at the end of the corridor.
In the middle, I met two agents who couldn't call me. They all greeted Murphy enthusiastically, just like treating the most important client in their name.
Murphy gradually walked away, but the two agents lowered their voices and talked.
"That guy Bill is so far away that he actually has a client like Murphy Stanton."
"Don't you think Bill Roses is average? He has the current status entirely because he is Murphy Stanton's agent!"
"Yes, the first time I operate the company's packaging project, I can get huge profits. I don't think Bill Roses did it well, but the film directed by Murphy Stanton is full of selling points! Even if you and I operate "Horror Planet", as long as the director is still Murphy Stanton, we can also make a profit..."
Murphy walked to Bill Roses's ensuite office, and an assistant immediately helped him open the office door.
Bill Roses, who was sitting behind the desk, stood up and walked over, "I thought you would be late and sit there."
He told his assistant to go and make coffee, and sat with Murphy on two single sofas separated by a coffee table, "Didn't you have a party last night?"
Murphy rubbed his forehead, "It's over less than a little while, I drink a lot of wine and feel uncomfortable in the morning."
"I heard you got the best horror movie," Bill Roses said with a smile. "The company's senior executives called me early this morning. If you need any support later, just talk."
Although the box office of "Horror Planet" in North America is far inferior to "Saw", its revenue also exceeded expectations. It can be regarded as a successful box office work. If a director succeeds continuously, it will naturally be taken more by the agency.
The female assistant brought in two cups of coffee, placed one cup in front of Murphy and Bill Roses, and then retreated.
"Well, it smells so good." Murphy smelled it, "It looks very good."
"Thank you from a Jamaican friend," Bill Roses said to the outside of the office. "Nancy, prepare a pack of new coffee for Murphy."
Just now, he just said politely, and Murphy didn't refuse, "Thank you."
The two then turned to the topic. Bill Roses pointed to a box in the corner of the office and said, "This is a letter sent to you by the movie fans from the mailroom. There are many crazy admirers in it. Do you want to read it?"
Murphy shook his head, "I don't have time. Don't you have a department that specializes in handling these?"
Bill Rossis understood Murphy's meaning and suggested, "Then I'll leave it to Gris to handle it?"
"You guys deal with it," Murphy didn't care about this. After all, he was a director, not a star in front of the screen. "It's better to pick some replies."
"I know how to do it." Bill Roses nodded.
After talking about these trivial matters, Murphy changed the topic, "How did I ask you to check some time ago? How did the copyright be distributed?"
"The copyright of the comic is mainly in D's hands," Bill Roses frowned. "If you want to impress D, it's okay as long as the bid is high enough, but D had an agreement with the original author. If you adapt the movie, you must get the consent of the original author!"
He sighed, "You know, that guy is hard to deal with."
