Chapter 583 We are ready to fight to the death

Chapter 583 We are ready to fight to the death
In the original timeline, the opening film of the 59th Cannes Film Festival was "The Da Vinci Code".

However, in this timeline, The Da Vinci Code was only published last year, and although it sold incredibly well, it has not been adapted into a movie.

Or rather, Liu Jin hasn't reached an agreement with Hollywood yet.

The two sides are still in negotiations.

Today, Mela called to tell Liu Jin that Warner Bros. has officially joined the competition for "The Da Vinci Code".

They offered six million dollars for the adaptation.

This price is now on par with the cost in the original timeline.

But Mela believes that this price is far from meeting expectations.

Liu Jin and Mela agreed on a price of eight million US dollars.

Well, it may not sound like a lot, but it definitely set a record in Hollywood history.

In fact, in the original timeline, 600 million had already set a record!

However, in this time and space, Liu Jin's "Pirates of the Caribbean" in 01 had already created a number close to this record.

At that time, J.K. Rowling set a record of $5.3 million for a single book adaptation during the second round of negotiations.

Not long after, Liu Jin broke this record with $550 million.

Of course, in terms of profit, J.K. Rowling definitely earns more.

After all, her new contract includes many additional clauses. Liu Jin and Warner Bros., on the other hand, only have a simple global box office revenue sharing agreement…

If Liu Jin were to discuss "Pirates of the Caribbean" with Warner Bros. now, it would be far more difficult.

……

The absence of "The Da Vinci Code" has been replaced by "The Devil Wears Prada".

This is a film invested in by 20th Century Fox, and Paris is one of the most important filming locations.

Therefore, it was selected by the organizing committee as the opening film.

Liu Jin was pleasantly surprised to find an old acquaintance, Gisele Bündchen.

Of course, there were also Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt, three stunning beauties with distinct personalities. Their appearance at the meet-and-greet after the premiere, attended by director David Frankel and star Meryl Streep, caused quite a stir.

"Which of the three is the prettiest?"

Monica asked in a low voice.

Liu Jin glanced at her and said, "I choose Anne Hathaway."

"Ha, I thought you chose Giselle."

"Giselle is beautiful too."

"A greedy man..."

Liu Jin couldn't help but chuckle.

Looking at beautiful women is pleasing to the eye and brings joy.

The slight unpleasantness I felt during the red carpet interview quickly became less important!

Of course, the counterattack against Indra will not stop there.

Liu Jin had already decided what to write.

Article 15 of the Indian Constitution states: "No one shall be discriminated against on the basis of caste, religion or place of birth."

This is a very righteous and inspiring passage!
but……

In 2019, an Indian-made film, The 15th, was released.

The film tells the story of a young police officer who, after being transferred to a remote village, confronts the cruelty of the caste system and gives a voice to the lower-caste Dalits.

The story will definitely have a glorious and righteous ending.

Article 15 of the Constitution is great and correct.

After all, Modi placed great importance on appearances during his time in power.

But Liu Jin doesn't intend to follow the original storyline. He plans to focus on this fifteenth point, depicting it with extreme darkness and cruelty, refusing to give it a glorious or righteous ending. Through this story, he wants the whole world to know just how ruthless Indians are when it comes to discrimination.

Article 15 is a mere formality.

At the same time, he will also trace the origins of the caste system, specifically the origins of castes such as Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras.

The excellent traditions of the lizard, such as the strong lizard, should also be described.

In short, the darker and more cruel the better!
"Don't get angry because of some people's shameless remarks. Believe that everyone will stand by your side."

"what?"

"Aren't you angry about Indra's remarks?"

"Ha, I am a little angry, but..."

We will support you!

Monica took Liu Jin's hand.

Liu Jin smiled slightly to express his gratitude.

……

After the opening ceremony, there was the usual cocktail party.

However, Liu Jin had something on his mind, so he took his leave early.

He returned to the hotel, immediately turned on his computer, and wrote down the outline of "Article 15" in a document.

After finishing writing, I felt a little sleepy.

So he poured himself a glass of wine, got up and went to the balcony, and lit a cigarette.

Just then, there was a knock on the door!

He put down his wine glass and cigarette, went into the guest room, and opened the door.

"Giselle?"

Standing outside the door was Gisele Bündchen.

Besides Gisele, there are two other people who are both unfamiliar and familiar: Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt.

“We didn’t see you at the party, and we only found out from Monica that you came back early.”

"Ah, please come in."

Liu Jin ushered the three of them into the guest room.

Anne Hathaway and Liu Jin met once.

During the shooting last year, Annie spoke out for Liu Jin in the media.

However, the two did not have any further contact.

Emily Blunt was meeting him for the first time.

Aside from the well-known screen images of the original timeline's Border Killer, Edge of Tomorrow, and Oppenheimer, after Liu Jin's rebirth, I've seen her starring in "Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes" and "Death on the Nile" in 04.

So it's not exactly unfamiliar.

Amos, are you alright now?

After Anne sat down, she asked with a smile.

Before Liu Jin could answer, Giselle said, "What problem could he have? He's in perfect health after spending five days and five nights at sea with five women."

"Giselle, would you believe me if I said we just went out to sea for fun and didn't do anything?"

Giselle rolled her eyes. "I 'believe'!"

"Come on, you're rolling your eyes so hard they're practically reaching the sky."

The three women couldn't help but burst into laughter.

I've heard about what happened to you.

Anne said, "We will all stand by you."

"Um, I think I used some inappropriate language during the interview today, such as calling him 'Ghee'."

"So what?" The white man's arrogance was on full display.

Often, people shout "oppose discrimination," but the discrimination in their hearts is like a mountain.

If Black people didn't stick together and be extremely sensitive, there wouldn't be such a thing as 'political correctness'.

As for mutual discrimination outside of Black people?
In the eyes of white people, it's nothing.

Of course, in this situation, most of them would choose to side with their relatives rather than with what is right.

Not to mention, it was Indra who provoked them first.

Anne Hathaway would undoubtedly side with Liu Jin.

And Emily Blunt?
She sneered, "If you've ever been to Harrow and Brent in London, you'll know what my senses are like."

And then there's Southall, 55 percent Indian... My God, I swear, I never want to set foot there again. But to get to Heathrow, you have to go through Southall... You can even see people urinating and defecating on the street without any attempt to hide or feel any shame, and they're even smug about it.

Well, regarding the issue of Indians urinating and defecating in public, I believe that twenty years from now, residents of Canada's beach areas will have a much deeper understanding of this.

"No way, how can that be?"

The favelas of Rio de Janeiro are poor, but not to the point of being…

"They believe this is part of their national identity."

As Liu Jin spoke, he got up, opened the refrigerator, and took out a few bottles of drinks.

If you join me in criticizing Indians, then we're family.

Giselle and her friends originally planned to visit briefly and then leave.

As soon as they sat down, they started chattering on and on.

Getting carried away, Gisele even had a few bottles of wine delivered from the guest room and ordered some nuts.

The three women pulled Liu Jin aside and started chatting about all sorts of things on the balcony.

Around 10 o'clock, Monica returned to the hotel.

When I passed by Liu Jin's room, I noticed that the door was not closed and I could hear a woman's voice coming from inside, so I went in out of curiosity.

As a result, Gisele pulled him along and he joined the chat.

At 11:30, Penelope and Jenna finished watching the game.

Barcelona won as expected, so the two Barcelona fans decided to go out for a drink with Liu Jin to celebrate.

result……

Fortunately, Emily wasn't a fan of Nana, otherwise she might have gotten into an argument with Penelope and the others.

After midnight, Isabelle Adjani arrived with Avril Lavigne.

Avril Lavigne worked with her in Hollywood.

The theme song in "Princess America: Europe" was sung by Avril Lavigne.

In this way, Liu Jin's room suddenly became a woman's world.

Their commotion attracted Cecil de France to join in as well.

She is the lead actress in "When We Were Still Singers".

She then called over Cate Blanchett, who was already getting ready for bed.

Finally, Liu Jin couldn't take it anymore, so he slunk out of the room and ran into Samuel, who was about to leave.

"Where are you going so late?"

"Pete's treating, I'm thinking of going to join in the fun."

Aren't you afraid the Chairman will be angry?

“Your room is practically a women’s kingdom. Apart from Monica, everyone else is an actress from the film crew. The chairman is even angrier.”

"Forehead……"

"Do you want to come together?"

"Never mind, I need to make sure they don't drink too much."

"You're such a beautiful friend."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

Liu Jin chuckled awkwardly twice.

That seems a bit excessive!

He couldn't remember how many women were in his guest room, but there were definitely more than ten.

It seems like all the pretty women at this year's Cannes Film Festival have gathered around him... Luckily, he had spoken to the organizing committee in advance and reserved a suite of nearly 100 square meters, otherwise, there really wouldn't be enough room for so many women.

"enjoy it!"

Samuel patted him on the shoulder, smiled, and walked away.

Enjoy my ass! Haven't you heard the story of the three monks having no water to drink?

Liu Jin sighed and called room service again, asking them to send over some more wine, and also some nuts, pizza, or something similar.

Judging from how engrossed these women are in their conversation, it's unlikely they'll break up before 3 a.m.!
The key issue is that they're all alcoholics.

……

Liu Jin ultimately underestimated those women.

They didn't disperse until five in the morning.

The floor was littered with empty bottles and a mess.

Who said these female celebrities are civilized?

Fruit peels, cigarette butts, wine bottles...

They were kind enough not to fly around the room, otherwise Liu Jin would definitely have been furious.

After seeing the women off, he lay down on the bed and fell fast asleep.

Today is the premiere of Nouri's "The Season for Breakups".

However, Liu Jin wasn't familiar with him, and after being bothered by a dozen women all night, he was too lazy to go over.

So he told Lecomte and stayed at the hotel to rest.

The Wang family did not bring anyone else to the premiere.
