Chapter 444 (1/2)
It's a new week.
After breakfast, Simon and Janet said goodbye and rushed to the airport.
Today is the launch day of ypay and ystore, two important products of igrit. Simon promised to attend today's press conference last week.
Arriving at Los Angeles International Airport, the private plane has stopped on the runway.
Simon takes his entourage into the cabin. There are already people waiting inside. They are Sandra Bullock and the female assistant, Jennifer. The female assistant is going to accompany Simon to San Francisco. As the spokesperson of igritte, Sandra is also going to attend the press conference. At the weekend, she makes a special call to get on the plane.
Simon and Sandra have been friends since they got married last year. However, the relationship is also closer than that of ordinary girlfriends and girlfriends.
After hugging and greeting, everyone came to a living room in the middle cabin, and the plane took off soon.
After the Boeing 767 was flying smoothly, Sandra untied her seat belt and got up from her fixed seat to Simon: ”Simon, can't the silence of the lamb really impact this year's Oscars?”
Simon casually sat down on the sofa, took the newspaper from the female assistant, opened it, and said with a smile, ”Jonathan asked you to ask?”
Sandra nodded and said, ”yes, but according to the word-of-mouth of” the silent lamb ”, I think I can have an impact on Oscar.”
Several creators of the silent lamb, Robert Duval, have made a series of nominations and awards. Sandra's background is still insufficient. This time, the goal is to nominate a best actress for the Golden Globe Award. Finally, only Jonathan Demi is left. This middle-aged director has been on the stage since the early 1970s and has been in Hollywood for 20 years It is the silence of the lamb that makes it to the front line.
There are probably few Hollywood filmmakers who don't want to get an Oscar.
”The silent lamb” is undoubtedly an excellent chance for Jonathan Demi to win the prize. Simon knows that this is Jonathan Demi's only nomination and award-winning opportunity.
However, Denise entertainment can not easily change the company's established strategy for someone.
What's more, even if you want to change, because danielis entertainment has won a series of important Oscars in the past two years, horror movies are not favored by Oscars after all.
Therefore, even if the strategy is changed, it is unlikely to win the best film, best director and other awards this time as in the original time and space. At most, it is a string of nominations.
Simon didn't hide these details from Sandra, explained them seriously, and said, ”so this time, I can only say sorry.”
Sandra didn't know all about the underlying rules in Hollywood, and she knew all about them.
For the Oscar, whether a film can win or not, its own quality is only a foundation, other also involves too many external factors.
Since there was no hope of winning the prize, Sandra stopped talking about it. She changed the topic and said, ”Jennie will be full-term next month. Why didn't you hear that she held a baby party, or said she didn't plan to invite me?”
Westerners hold parties to welcome the baby before it is born.
If it was a few months ago, Janet would have been in the mood to do this. Now, women are not in the mood.
”I don't think so. I'll go back and remind her.”
Sandra leaned over the sofa and looked at Simon sideways. She reached down and ticked all the newspapers in front of him. ”Depressed?” she said
Simon shook his head and said, ”of course not. But, presumably, there is some anxiety. ”
”If I had a baby in my stomach, I would feel at a loss.” Sandra nodded understandably, then looked at Simon and said, ”what about you?”
”What's the matter with me?”
”Your son is about to be born, and you're only, um, 23 years old?”
”A lot of people become parents when they are 16 years old.”
”It's someone else. You're not the same.”
Simon said helplessly, ”do you want me to be depressed?”
Sandra's face showed a schadenfreude expression, still staring at Simon, said with a smile: ”it seems that your heart is not so relaxed on the surface.”
Simon changed the subject: ”what about you, have you found a girlfriend?”
Quiet do next to Jennifer Leng, curiously look over.
Sandra was distracted and raised her hand to hit Simon: ”why don't you find a boyfriend? My sexual orientation is normal.”
”Well, so...”
Sandra gave Simon a white look and said, ”I've found it. When will you meet me? Give me a chance.”
Simon immediately shook his head: ”don't, don't let me see, I'm afraid I can't help but suppress, let him feel ashamed and take the initiative to leave you.”
”So, men,” Sandra sighed, looking at Jennifer for sympathy. ”Are you right, Jenny?”
The female assistant nodded, ”well.”Simon pretended dissatisfaction to look over: ”you, um, what, don't pretend to understand if you don't understand.”
The female assistant stares gently, retorts: ”understand, men are greedy bastards.”
“……”
”Ha ha...”
Chatting and joking all the way, the Boeing 767 landed at San Francisco San Jose Airport in less than 40 minutes, more than 500 kilometers away.
Arrive at the San Francisco municipal hall where the new product launch will be held, more than 20 minutes before the launch.
With the listing of AOL and Cisco, igritte, as the most important part of the Internet industry layout of Westeros, has attracted more and more attention from the industry.
Therefore, not only the local media in North America, but also the reporters from overseas countries flocked to the press conference. With other guests, more than 2000 people attended the press conference.
Simon said hello to several senior executives of igritte. He only had time to say hello to Bill Gates, John Scaley and other important guests in the industry. The press conference was about to start.
Although ypay and ystore are the main products of this press conference, now that they have attracted a lot of media attention, the management of igritte has turned this press conference into a comprehensive product promotion conference of igritte.
At ten o'clock, the press conference officially began.
