Chapter 163 Ode to Joy

In the headquarters building of Sony Columbia, a group of people sat around the table in the huge conference room. The host was Sun Ken, the executive director of Sony Entertainment stationed in the United States. Unlike Ryan imagined that although he came from Sony headquarters, he was a Japanese American and received American education since childhood.

He was responsible for the project "Angry Flames" from selecting actors to selecting partners, and even personally served as one of the producers.

"At present, all work is progressing smoothly. In terms of publicity investment and intensity, we have steadily surpassed "Jurassic Park". Tommy's box office appeal is still strong. Most of the people interviewed said they would consider going to the cinema to watch "The Furious Flames"."

A person in charge of publicity is talking endlessly about the progress of publicity.

"Don't forget that although Jurassic Park has a large number of book fans, it is a young book, which is very different from the audience of "Flames of the Sky". We don't need to worry too much."

The person who spoke was a Japanese, however, they did not know that the protagonist of Ryan's script was completely different from the protagonist of the novel. "The biggest highlight of "Jurassic Park" is the conflict between dinosaurs and humans. Now the movie is rated as PG-13, and many shots of dinosaurs attacking humans must be cancelled. In that case, it will inevitably affect the quality of the film."

"That's right!"

Several yellow-skinned people nodded in agreement, and some doubts appeared on the faces of several American managers. The director of the movie was Stephen Spielberg.

"Everyone, can you listen to me?" American executive John Smith spoke, "The author of the script is Ryan Jenkins! Don't forget that "Home Imperial" is just a story for children, but the adapted movie is a killer of all ages!"

"Hey~ John, you're over-thinking." Yukino on the island shook his head and waved to his assistant. Documents were sent to everyone, "This is the situation of all the scripts written by Ryan Jenkins that I have asked to count. "The Sixth Sense", "The Little Imperial", "Seattle Night", "Body Guard", etc. Have you found a common point? Apart from "Body Guard" because of that conflict..."

He suddenly stopped and looked at the Creamy Young Master, "Sorry, Tommy..."

"It's okay." Tom Cruise made a continued gesture to him.

"Except for the box office of "Body Guard" that exceeded 40 million US dollars in the first week, all of them were around 30 million US dollars. Among them, "The Sixth Sense" and "Home Imperial" had the best box office results. The release time in North America was 15 weeks and 16 weeks respectively. It was through long-term screenings that such high box office numbers were achieved."

The island's Yukino's eyes showed a confident look, "So, I judged that the first week of Jurassic Park will not exceed $50 million, or even below $40 million. And the news from the theaters is that Universal Pictures signed a long-term screening contract."

After hearing his analysis, many people nodded, after all, data will not lie.

"No one will succeed forever, even Spielberg has fallen into trouble. I admit that Jurassic Park has a strong appeal. But our "Flames of the Sky" will not be worse than them!" Tom Cruise stood up, and his confidence and pride filled his handsome face.

"Yes, I think Tommy's words make sense." Yukinoshima echoed, "The investment in "The Furious Flames" is the same as in "Jurassic Park", but the promotion and marketing are even better. In terms of actors, we also have two superstars, Tommy and Demi."

They wouldn't have thought that the actors in that movie were just foils.

"I am confident that "The Furious Flames" can surpass "Jurassic Park" in the first week's box office and win the North American box office rankings!" Yukino Oni said in the final summary.

The meeting was over, and Tom Cruise quickly walked out, and his agent had to smile apologetically at everyone and quickly followed.

"Tomy, I'm still a little worried."

The last agent has been fired, "Jurassic Park..."

"Jack, do you think I'm not as good as that little devil?"

After Tom Cruise's words, the agent shut his mouth obediently.

It's only two years! Tom Cruise frowned. Two years ago, the other party was just a little kid and child star. Now, it can already influence the top Hollywood film companies!

After staying in Hollywood for so many years, he knew very well. If he attacked Ryan Jenkins now, the first thing he would be to fight back from giants such as Warner, Paramount, and Walt Disney.

This is a circle of interests first, and Ryan Jenkins can provide far more benefits to his alliance than he himself.

Unlike his previous conceit, when he saw that little guy step by step towards the most powerful class in Hollywood, Tom Cruise felt a little guilty. Perhaps he didn't know that sentence - the person who knows you best is your enemy - but he knew that Ryan Jenkins was definitely not a broad-minded person. He seemed to have an extraordinary desire to protect Nicole Kidman. He has been targeting himself since the first meeting!

The later conflict even raised the conflict between the two to a stage where they could no longer be reconciled. Those companies that wanted to cooperate with him instantly distanced themselves from themselves.

Once the other party completely overwhelms him, he is likely to take revenge. Not to mention him, he just occasionally meets Nicole Kidman. The other party looks at him, and it is clearly looking at the enemy of life and death.

Tom Cruise understands that he has only one way to go, that is, climb up, become the King of Heaven in Hollywood, and become one of the most powerful people!

To be honest, he didn't expect that "Jurassic Park" would actually crash with his own movie, but he soon realized that this was an opportunity. As long as "Flames of Rage" over "Jurassic Park", he could prove to the entire Hollywood that his value was above Ryan Jenkins and dismantle the other party's interest alliance from the side.

…………

At the same moment on the same day, Ryan was wearing a dress and sitting upright on the stage of the school auditorium. His slender fingers fell on the black and white keys like jumping elfs, and the tune of "Ode to Joy" jumped out happily.

In late May, thirteen-year-old Ryan finally ushered in his primary school graduation ceremony. As a star and signboard in the school, performing on stage is definitely indispensable. Moreover, Nicole Kidman was sitting in the first row under the stage, staring at him attentively.

"Dong~"

The last scale fell, and the students and parents in the auditorium stood up and applauded, and the tide of applause lasted for several minutes.

There are not many opportunities to witness the super genius playing on the spot!

Back in the background and changed his dress, Ryan walked back to the auditorium and sat quietly beside Nicole.

"Great, my dear." Nicole's face showed a proud look without any concealment. "Maybe you should try the eighth level of piano professional test."

"Forget it, Nicole." Ryan didn't care much. Nicole's praise was much better than the eighth level. "Those are not important, aren't they?"

"Okay, whatever you want."

In recent times, as Ryan continues to rise, Nicole has quietly changed the way they get along.

“Wow~”

The applause rang again at this time, but it was much weaker than before. Ryan also stood up with everyone and applauded the students performing on the stage.

This is a typical American elementary school graduation ceremony. Without the speech of the principal and the leader, there will always be only one protagonist here, that is, the students. This is the stage for students. Due to age, they cannot hold dances and can only show their talents in this way.

The graduation ceremony soon came to an end, and Ryan and Nicole planned to leave early. Many parents were Nicole's fans. When she appeared in the auditorium, her bets were not much less than the sunshine on the window.

"Ryan."

A middle-aged man with a beard came over at this time, and it was the principal.

"Hello, Principal Simon."

Nicole stood beside him, and Ryan could only say hello to him obediently.

"The star student of St. John's Elementary School is about to graduate, and I'm really reluctant to let it go." The principal, who has always been very serious, joked.

"It should be said that a troublemaker and a troublemaker are leaving."

Ryan only muttered, then saw Nicole's light blue eyes, and quickly closed her mouth.

"No, no, Ryan. Actually, we all understand that the school cannot teach you more." Principal Simon waved his hand and looked at Nicole, "Miss Kidman, thank you for your contributions to the school over the years."

"You're welcome." Nicole shook hands with him, and Principal Simon was about to say goodbye. "Finally, I wish you and Ryan's careers will be smoother and more brilliant."

"let's go."

Nicole pulled him down, and the two walked towards the door of the auditorium. Two boys who were much shorter than Ryan came over, "Ryan!"

"Hello, Jerry, and Peter."

Although they have been a lot distant in the past two years, these two people can be regarded as Ryan’s only acquaintances in school.

"Ri...Rion, we...we..."

It seemed to be suppressed by Nicole's aura. Peter did not say a complete sentence for a long time. Jerry had to say loudly, "Ryan, although we don't have much contact, we are all your supporters. We will go to watch "Jurassic Park". You will definitely be able to defeat that... Tom Cruise!"

"Yes, Ryan, we all support you."

More students came over at this time, probably because they graduated and understood that they were about to part. They were kind and close to Ryan. "We will all go to the theater to watch "Jurassic Park"!"

"Thank you, thank you everyone!"

Faced with this scene, Ryan had to thank him, "I promise that "Jurassic Park" is definitely more exciting than everyone imagined!"
