Chapter four hundred and thirty fourth studio experience

The relaxed and freehand holiday ended in a blink of an eye. Ryan returned to the Kingdom of Great Britain. The sun was rarely exposed above London. The good weather and good news came one by one, which made him feel very good. It seemed that everything was indicating that this year would be particularly smooth.

After April, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" officially announced its launch, becoming the most sensational news in the entertainment industry after the Oscars. A large number of paparazzi and reporters revolve around the crew every day, and they can write photos of actors or staff at will.

In addition, "Gladiator", which has not been promoted much, has become the focus of their reports. These two heavyweight crews are not far apart and have a close relationship with Ryan. The center of gravity of Fleet Street immediately shifted to the outskirts of London.

Terenas, who works for The Sun, is an ace journalist in the entertainment industry. Since last year, he has been paying attention to the progress of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". Because he involves some unexplained relationships from the upper class, he can occasionally apply to enter the set. Although he is strictly restricted in taking photos on the crew, he is one of the most well-informed journalists.

At the end of March, he went to Los Angeles and witnessed the legendary man's failure in the Oscars. With the other party's talent and pursuit, he would never give up and would definitely launch another attack with his new work.

So, Terenas focused on Northampton, hoping to get big news that would be sensational.

Of course, with the style of the newspaper and his pen, even if it is not a big news, it can be written into explosive news.

"Hi, Darren."

At the door of the set, Terenas greeted the person who came to him, "Aren't you the interim assistant to director Scott? Why do you have time to come out to pick me up?"

"Mr. Scott has too many assistants, and I'm not short of me." Darren Bowsman waved to him after making a gesture you know. "Let's go, the old rules."

"I see."

As he said that, Terenas walked into the set with the envious eyes of dozens of reporters. Although many areas were restricted areas, his eyes were like Sherlock Holmes and would not let go of any valuable news clues.

"You are hindering the freedom of the press..."

Listening to the protest coming from behind, Terenas shook his head. For a while, he was actually shouting like this.

As for free press and other things, people who shouted will not take it seriously, let alone other people...

Just like when I came a few times, Terenas entered the built-in arena and handed over the camera to a dedicated staff member. Together with Darren Bowsman, he changed into the costumes of ancient Roman civilians, sat in the temporary stands, and became one of the two thousand audience actors.

Although it is necessary to make an angry, excited, or exciting shouts from time to time under the command of the deputy director. However, for an entertainment reporter, it is very rare to witness the shooting of an epic production at such a close distance.

What's more, an actor on the set is called Ryan Jenkins!

Who is the other party? He is a person who can attract the attention of the whole world with every move, is a recognized superstar, and is the best actor in the younger generation of film critics. His works involved in creation and performance have broken all the box office records that can be broken...

He is young, handsome, and rich!

The other party is definitely the richest person of the same age group. From 1990 to now, it only took him ten years from starting from scratch to having a net worth of billions of dollars. Many people even speculate that the wealth he has not exposed may be more.

Such people are naturally the focus of the Sun's long-term focus. Although they often hype some unreliable news, Terenas always remembers what the editor specifically ordered to grasp the degree.

He knew the reason. The other party was a big shot who could be on par with News Corp. President Rupert Murdoch. Both sides had many common interests, and the Sun was just a tabloid under News Corp.

"I seem to be lucky today."

Terenas's attention was all focused on the arena, and he could witness the two superstars facing each other, but there were very few opportunities. "Ryan Jenkins vs. Leonardo DiCaprio, this movie can attract a large number of female audiences to the theater without any promotion."

"What did you say?" asked Darren Bowsman beside him.

"The box office of this movie is definitely not a problem!" Terenas replied.

There is a reason for him to say this, after all, "Pianist" suffered a complete defeat at the box office.

This movie has received unanimous praise from the critics and is even considered a classic among classics. However, neither the critics nor the best Oscar movie can affect the audience's viewing experience too much. The box office of the movie is still falling all the way, and it is already facing the danger of being downgraded in North America. According to the estimates of professional institutions, the box office of the movie in North America cannot exceed 50 million US dollars, and the global box office is about 110 million US dollars to 130 million US dollars.

Whether you can recover your costs by relying on box office depends on the terms of the contract signed by Jenkins Film and overseas publishers...

Without looking back at the information, Terenas also knew that "Pianist" was definitely the lowest-grossing movies Ryan Jenkins had participated in. Even some media that opposed it for the sake of opposition could not wait to jump out and declare that he no longer had the box office appeal...

Regarding this statement, Terenas just wants to scold someone with a problem. If such a niche movie can achieve a box office of hundreds of millions of dollars, that is a problem. Even if you find a swearing head to hype, it still cannot change the essence of a niche movie.

As for the Gladiator in the filming below, Terenas has read the short novella previously published in Vanity Fair, in which the themes of freedom and responsibility should be very much in the appetite of the American Academy of Film Arts and Sciences. Ryan clearly aimed at next year's Oscars.

The only uncertainty is whether this epic production can find a balance between business and art?

The sound of metal collisions below interrupted Terenas' thoughts. Ryan Jenkins, dressed in gladiator, was slashing with Leonardo DiCaprio in gorgeous armor. The action director who was watching the camera would stop from time to time, call the two of them aside, and give some advice.

With short hair, a resolute and handsome face, and a body full of explosive power, the man who could not tell his age and seemed to have experienced vicissitudes of life, gave Terenas such a powerful feeling, as if Achilles had walked out of Homer's epic and descended to the Kingdom of Great Britain.

There seems to be no difficulty in this world that can restrain his progress. It seems that all difficulties are vulnerable to him. His past experiences and the glory he has achieved all prove this.

If God is unfair, the existence of Ryan Jenkins is the greatest injustice!

Looking at the person who had re-entered the shooting status, for some reason, Terenas remembered this widely circulated sentence.

But he obviously ignored Achilles and the deadly Achilles heel...

The shooting is far less beautiful than imagined. The shots in the movie have undergone a lot of post-processing. As a senior entertainment reporter, Terenas is well aware of this. Although he does not have cameras and other equipment, he patiently observes and looks for any news material that can be amplified.

Since Ryan Jenkins decided to place the crew of "Gladiator" and "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in the UK, the income of employees on Fleet Street has soared. Everyone wished he would immediately become a British citizen and place his home in London completely. How many opportunities for hype will be added in the future?

Should peers be mobilized to put pressure on the government on reporting?

Some time ago, there was a rumor that it was said that the Queen ordered the House of Lords to study the issue of awarding medals. I believe the other party would not reject the title of the great Kingdom of Great Britain. It is one of the highest honors in the literary and sports world...

The shooting below is still intermittent. In Terenas's eyes, Leonardo DiCaprio is simply an expert. His skills are much worse than Ryan. If there is a life-and-death battle in the venue, he may have died at least ten times.

Of course, Terenas knew that before this movie, Ryan also starred in Aragon in "Lord of the Rings". Although the crew regarded confidentiality as a state secret, the Sun could not find out much useful information. I believe that before he starred in King Ilisa, he must have received strict sword training.

Terenas still remembers that when Jenkins Film officially announced the adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings" into a movie, it attracted many questions from the media and book fans, because it was too difficult to reproduce the huge Middle-earth world in the book. Can a New Zealand director who is not very famous really do all this?

As for Aragon, on the contrary, many people are looking forward to the role played by Ryan Jenkins, and the age gap has almost been ignored. After all, after watching "The Rest of the Desert Island", as long as people with some common sense in the movie will understand that age and experience are not obstacles to Ryan at all.

Just like the general in "Gladiator", Terenas never doubted whether Ryan Jenkins could interpret this character with a wife and a child into a classic in film history.

The afternoon was soon over. Terenas walked down the temporary stands in the arena, and under the supervision of Darren Bowsman, he retrieved his camera and other equipment and walked outside the set.
