Chapter 415 It doesn’t matter if it’s popular or not.
Scarlett, you are so beautiful!
Scarlett, it is said that your next film will be cooperating with director Matthew Vaughn. Can you confirm it?
Scarlett, are you coming to Houston to discuss a new collaboration or a new movie?
Scarlett, this morning, Abel Smith also came to Houston and was interviewed at this airport. Can you comment on Mr. Smith?
Scarlett, it is said that you are competing for an important role in MGM's second superhero movie Captain America. Is this true?
Scarlett, someone criticized your acting skills for being dull. Can you respond?
...
Also at Houston's Herbert Bush Intercontinental Airport.
Different time.
In the morning, after Abel Smith showed up here.
At noon, Scarlett Johansson, the new Hollywood actress, was surrounded by many reporters as soon as she appeared in the airport reception hall.
Before this year, Scarlett Johansson was a child star and started acting when she was very young.
She has also served as the heroine and is considered a familiar face on the screen.
But to say how famous she is is to deceive oneself and others.
This situation has changed recently.
This is because the movie Kick-Ass starring him was released on January 26.
In its first week of release, the film earned $18.54 million.
This achievement also reflects Scarlett's performance in the movie.
Scarlett Johansson is currently one of the most popular stars in Hollywood after starring in Spider-Man.
In total, Spider-Man took almost a year to prepare and shoot.
The production cycle of Kick-Ass is obviously much shorter.
From production to release, it even took less than 4 months.
Not even Scarlett Johansson, who trained physically for as long as she did to film it.
If Peter Parker in Spider-Man successfully opened the era of superheroes for American movies or global movies.
The super-killer girl in Kick-Ass is kind of hitching a ride on Spider-Man.
Before other superhero movies had even appeared.
Kick-Ass will be released soon, and Spider-Man has not even been released yet.
It took over a lot of the popularity of Spider-Man.
Coupled with the exciting fighting scenes of violent lolita in the movie, there are also smooth dramas.
Let this anti-superhero movie with a small investment achieve greater success than in its parallel time and space.
The box office grossed more than 18 million US dollars in the first week. Not many Hollywood movies can match this achievement alone.
It has been nearly 10 days since Kick-Ass was released.
As the heroine in it, Scarlett Johansson, who played the violent Lolita extremely well, can be regarded as the actor who benefited the most in this movie.
In just a few days, I asked for the help of the super-killing female character in Kick-Ass.
The young Scarlett Johansson suddenly became one of the most well-known actors in the United States.
So much so that when she came to Houston, she was blocked by a large number of reporters as soon as she walked out of the airport terminal.
There were reporters and paparazzi nearby, taking pictures and asking questions. There were many passers-by in the distance, all holding cameras. It was unclear whether they were recording or taking photos.
Scarlett Johansson ignored it and lowered her head, protected by her agent, assistants and bodyguards.
After quickly passing through the pick-up hall, the group was able to escape smoothly and quickly got into the car that came to pick her up.
It wasn't until she got in the car that she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This kind of popularity can only be experienced when it becomes popular.
In the past, this was a situation that Scarlett Johansson would never have imagined, but now it has really happened to her.
Today, Scarlett Johansson will be watched and surrounded whenever she appears in public.
Whenever you go out, you will be blocked by reporters and paparazzi.
If you are not careful, you may even be tracked and secretly photographed by paparazzi.
Scarlett Johansson finds it strange to say that she herself started out as a child star.
Due to family background and interest, she started filming since she was a child.
In the past two years, she has played seven or eight roles, large and small. Except for the occasional male actor praising her beauty, no one seems to have noticed how beautiful she is.
But this moment of popularity was different immediately. Everyone praised themselves for being beautiful and beautiful.
Whenever they encounter one, they greedily approach them and take photos and videos.
The paparazzi tried to ask questions in various ways.
There were even many questions that were clearly meant to anger Scarlett and force her to speak on her own.
Scarlett is not stupid. Although she is young, she is actually a Hollywood veteran.
Following her agent's instructions, she didn't respond at all.
Only when meeting some kind fans will he smile and wave slightly.
After leaving the airport, the car started quickly and drove out. With the cooperation of some personnel, it was easy to completely get rid of the paparazzi and their cameras.
In the back car, her manager was sitting in the passenger seat, speaking to her in a low voice.
Scarlett's agent was originally Derek Wright.
Derek Wright is now promoted to the position of CEO of CAA.
Although Derek Wright still attaches great importance to Scarlett.
After all, Mr. CEO, he also knows how he got to the position.
Just like the two Michaels who hold high positions in Smith Media today, they also dare not forget their true intentions.
Also on good terms with Liv, Annie and others.
Pillow wind, no one dares to ignore its power at all times and in all countries.
But no matter how much attention is paid to it, it is impossible for Derek Wright to accompany Scarlett Johansson like before.
Therefore, within CAA, Derek Wright specially promoted a female agent who was his confidant.
Let this female agent Mary be the main person in charge of Scarlett.
In the carriage.
In the passenger seat, after the female agent Mary finished chatting with Scarlett, she quickly took out her mobile phone and started making a call.
Hello, Mr. Edward, yes, I, we have already boarded the car, let me report to you. Hey, hey, okay, it's all at your discretion!
Scarlett Johansson pursed her lips, took out her phone, thought for a moment, and sent him a text message, Dear, I'm here. I just left the airport and got in the car.
After waiting for two minutes, as expected, no reply.
He must be busy with something else.
Scarlett Johansson knows that preparations for her big career are in full swing.
This is something that the entire American elite is paying attention to.
A huge consortium is about to appear on this land.
Consortium!
To be honest, Scarlett didn't care much about their existence before.
At most, like other ordinary Americans, she knew that Rockefeller and Morgan were very powerful.
After getting to know Abel and having information channels from a higher dimension of life.
Scarlett Johansson was able to obtain information and immediately rose to the top. Only then did she know a lot of things.
At least now, the young she knows.
In front of these consortiums, many times the so-called Hollywood giants are nothing more than a joke.
In Hollywood, existences such as News Corporation and the Redstone family are regarded as super behemoths.
Even they are, at best, just members of these consortiums.
But now, Abel, his man, who is only a few years older than himself, is about to become the master of such a super behemoth.
At least it's one of them.
Just thinking about it made Scarlett feel like she was in a dream.
Even though she came here this time, Scarlett Johansson knew that she was actually just called here.
After Kick-Ass, during the recent period, she was promoting the movie and at the same time she was talking about a new movie, which is a superhero movie Captain America that the company will produce in the second half of the year.
Captain America is also the second film in the Marvel Universe after Spider-Man.
Taking advantage of the current popularity of Kick-Ass and his own soaring popularity.
He will appear in it, and will also appear in a series of movies in the future. A very important role will most likely be his.
But Scarlett Johansson suddenly received a text message from him.
Neither she nor her manager had a bad temper. They immediately packed their bags and went out.
The agent called MGM and explained it.
Even Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, which suddenly had some leadership in the top six because of Spider-Man, didn't have any temper and told her to go without delay.
So she abandoned the promotion of Kick-Ass and the research for the new movie.
Get on the MGM plane immediately and come over quickly.
In fact, the text message was very simple, just one line: I want to have you in the aerospace city, come here.
When I was still on the plane, I looked at the white clouds outside the window for a moment.
Scarlett Johansson couldn't help but have an idea flash through her mind.
She felt like a puppy. When the owner whistled, she would quickly move towards him, wagging her tail.
Even worse than a puppy.
Puppies can still be playful and ignore their owners.
It’s just a dog anyway, so the owner may not be angry.
But he didn't dare. When he heard the whistle, he was very panicked.
I quickly washed myself clean, tidied myself up beautifully, and made myself smell good, so I came over.
In the eyes of outsiders, those reporters, paparazzi, fans, and audiences.
In their eyes, he is now famous. He may not be a big star yet, but he is definitely a rising star.
But actually?
Just call and come.
No matter how big or important you are, they are not as important as His calling.
Drop everything and come quickly.
Scarlett Johansson knew that for him, this might just be after he suddenly thought of himself.
Some kind of addiction developed in him.
Just like occasionally, I suddenly want to eat products from a certain store in Los Angeles.
I just casually called him over and played for two days.
Even... maybe there is a possibility that he will have to accompany him with other girls.
Like when I was on the beach in Malibu.
She was always with Liv Tyler.
Scarlett now has a good relationship with Liv.
After all, they are friends on the same battlefield. They have carried guns together and been baptized by artillery fire. To a certain extent, it can be said that they have a strong relationship.
But this kind of thing happens to most women who have received modern education and modern concepts.
Many times, it is somewhat difficult to accept.
Scarlett Johansson is very young and has little education.
But the so-called modern feminism, even female empowerment, also entered her mind early.
It's just that these things come after reality.
They all succumbed to the pressure of reality.
Now that it's popular, she feels a little bit drifting inside.
As a young woman, she was somewhat unable to suppress these things.
A little crazy...
Fortunately, she has known what Hollywood or the American entertainment industry is since she was a child.
Even if it's a little drifting.
Scarlett Johansson also knows what can and cannot be done, or what she should do.
There was nothing I could do, although I was indeed popular now, and a lot of opportunities began to come to my hands.
The first opportunity that Hollywood people value the most, I firmly grasped it and did it very successfully.
This is a dream start for any actor.
It seems that from now on, even if you don't expect him to give you a chance, it will be completely fine.
After all...because of his age at that time, although he signed an employee contract, it was just a memorandum-type document.
I was not old enough yet, so even if I wanted to talk about the law, I couldn't talk about it seriously at that time.
Legally, strictly speaking, that document is a bit flimsy.
If we have to take the lawsuit seriously, Scarlett's side is considered to be the one with the advantage.
The premise is that we can win...
However, the reality is that everyone from Scarlett Johansson's family to her agent not only made it clear that she would never allow herself to fall in love with anyone else, but even strictly restricted other male actors from getting close to her.
Scarlett Johansson felt like she was locked in a cage by the combined efforts of everyone.
A cage that only he had a key to.
A canary that belongs only to him.
well……
Not willing to give in? kind of.
Modern feminism’s brainwashing power is no less powerful than any other doctrine.
Angry? Not really, mainly because I don’t dare to.
In fact, I was quite enjoying it before.
Although he knew that he was just a gadget of his.
Not to mention girlfriend, even Qingren may not be able to be ranked, but she still enjoys it.
He is so handsome, so powerful, and so rich.
And it’s extremely fierce.
Every time the moon retreats, I tremble.
Every time I receive a new gift, a new good thing.
Every time because of his name and influence, even super giants like Michael Eisner are polite to him on certain Hollywood occasions.
Even Robert Iger, the president of Smith Media, also respected himself very much.
Wait, wait, Scarlett is actually very happy during these times.
It was only after she became famous recently that she always felt as if it was of no use whether she was popular or not.
Look, I'm already famous. Do I still want to be kept as a pet?
Coming when called upon and gone at a moment's notice?
If that's the case, what kind of celebrity am I? What’s the point of me becoming popular? !
What other movies and scenes should I act in?
Even if I don’t act in movies or make movies, I won’t be popular.
Don’t big guys like Michael Levine and Robert Iger also want to treat me with respect?
Replace it with someone else who is more popular than yourself, such as Tom Hanks or Tom Cruise.
Even now, they don't have the kind of respect they get in front of these Hollywood big shots!
Even Scarlett Johansson knows that the big shots don’t respect her.
What the big shots respect is the super big shot who likes to stand behind him and hug his little self...
In random thoughts.
Scarlett Johansson's small motorcade pulled over halfway.
The agent gave Scarlett Johansson a few words and moved to another car.
And the car was also very fast, and they parted ways at the next intersection.
Scarlett Johansson does know where the female agent Mary should be staying, and she will probably show up after she is finished.
But Scarlett herself actually had no idea where she would be sent.
After driving for another half an hour, the car entered a wealthy area in Houston.
Through the car window, Scarlett saw outside, all beautiful single-family villas.
Her car finally stopped in front of a very luxurious villa - even Scarlett Johansson didn't recognize it here.
But just from looking at it from the outside, she knew that this large villa must be worth a lot of money.
The world's craziest luxury home buyer
The man with the most luxury homes in the world
Etc. Titles like this, Scarlett knows what it means.
That means she's in California, in Hollywood, on the beach in Santa Monica, on the beach in Malibu.
Anyway, no matter where she is, her personal bodyguard can easily find the nearest beautiful mansion for her to use.
Something that can be done in California.
In Texas, his home base, Scarlett felt it must be simpler.
I don’t know why, but Scarlett Johansson has always had a feeling since she became his woman.
That is, she felt that he seemed to be obsessed with her body.
For example, even though you don't need to think about it, you know that there is absolutely no shortage of women around him.
But he was ordered to run specifically to Texas.
This seemed to be the first time this happened in the small inner circle Liv had created.
Regardless of whether this is the reality or not, Scarlett Johansson thinks so now anyway.
Because of this thought, she felt that she was relatively unique next to him.
Just thinking about it this way will make her feel much better.
After getting out of the car, Scarlett felt that the house was very big and beautiful.
There are as many bodyguards and maids as ever, and they are all high-end people who look like elites.
And sure enough, he was not in the villa.
Still busy outside.
His personal manager David Jones should have made arrangements before.
Therefore, when they saw that they were coming by themselves, they looked very natural and no one was surprised.
He even prepared lunch for himself.
Then, he arrived in the big room assigned to him and waited boredly.
He waited until five o'clock in the afternoon and he came back.
The strange thing is that he didn't bring any other girls with him this time.
This gave Scarlett Johansson a little more comfort: Maybe it's because I'm red? So even he has a little more respect for me?
But soon, she knew that she was terribly wrong.
