Chapter 41 Pizza Advertising
At the age of eleven, it is unprecedented whether it is unprecedented to win two Oscar nominations, Ryan doesn't know or care, but he knows that his value has increased significantly.
Taking advantage of his rest period, Pizza Hut quickly reached an advertising contract, Pizza Hut's pizza advertisement, and just shot two advertisements, they could get $500,000. In Ryan's opinion, it was very cost-effective, after all, it didn't take long.
Originally, Espree wanted to ask him to endorse children's clothing, but Ryan's spare time either gave music or spent scripts and creation, and didn't have that much time to stand up for the merchants. If you can just shoot advertisements, you should forget about endorsement.
In order to make the time for his time, the advertisement was specially selected for the weekend. Ryan was sitting in Jinsley's car and was flipping through a stack of documents. These were the information of the assistant candidates interviewed by the agent lady.
"Ryan, you want to have one person serve as your driver, bodyguard and assistant, which is unrealistic!" Jinsley obviously had a headache.
"Is no one doing double pay?" Ryan scratched his head, "Okay, find a driver and bodyguard first, and then the assistant later. I'm really fed up with those guys."
Since the Film Academy announced the nomination list, Ryan has enjoyed the treatment of a superstar. Journalists and paparazzi siege him at home and at school. Dayou will not let him go if you can't come up with evidence to prove that you are not a Martian. Many media even dug out his past and analyze it from his life to his personality. Dayou has a long serial of "How are geniuses or monsters made" in the newspaper.
What's more, he also has a beautiful and inconspicuous female celebrity sister. They stayed in the same place but could catch two fish in one net, which was a great deal.
The advertisement was filmed in the Universal Studios studio. During the shooting, he also had a little girl partner. When he saw the little girl introduced by the director, Ryan grinned and thought to himself that it was a coincidence.
The little girl's face was dotted with freckles and fluffy brown-red curly hair. It was Lindsay Rohan who he had met once.
"A guy who only knows NG!"
Ryan waved to her, but he didn't expect the response he received was like this.
"Hello, Mr. Jenkins, I am Lindsay's father, Michael Rohan." A middle-aged man came over. Despite the strong smell of cologne, Ryan still smelled a faint smell of alcohol.
"Hello, Mr. Rohan." He didn't want to have anything to do with this super-quality father. He just said hello and sat aside and read the script.
The advertisements are very simple, far less complicated than those of Pizza Hut in later generations. What Ryan wants to show is the bright smile in "Home Imperial". This is really too simple for him, oh...and eating pizza.
Unfortunately, regardless of his past or present life, he had no interest in these foreign fast foods. Even though his stomach had long been adapting to Western diets, he still couldn't eat the taste of pizza. As a result, there was a problem with the first trial.
The obviously specially processed seafood pizza, Ryan frowned at the moment of the entrance, and the director had to stop.
"Pate, water." Ryan quickly spit out the strange-smelling food, took the water cup handed over by Jinslie, rinsed it twice, and then felt a little better.
"What happened, Ryan?" asked Pai Jinsley.
"I have never eaten anything so bad, and even the food in the welfare home is better than this." Ryan said in a low voice after looking at the people around him.
"Hmph! It's true that he is a guy who only knows how to NG." The little girl sitting opposite the dining table snorted with disdain.
Ryan glared at her fiercely, but couldn't say anything. After all, it would be a shame to be slutty about a little girl who was only five years old.
Jinsley was a little amused and could only comfort her for a few words. Fortunately, Ryan was not a person who didn't know the importance of it. She pointed to a newly replaced pizza and said, "I haven't eaten this kind of thing before, but I didn't expect the taste to be so bad. Now that I'm mentally prepared, there's no problem."
The next shot was like Ryan said. He rarely had any problems. He only passed a few shots at once. The little girl Linsay is obviously a veteran in advertising. Although she NG a few times, she did not have all kinds of situations like an ordinary child.
But the crew was having trouble again when they were having lunch. Since it was an advertisement for Pizza Hut, you can imagine that lunch. Looking at the boxes of pizza, Ryan felt disgusted and had no appetite. This was simply a bad food except KFC and McDonald's.
Fortunately, Universal Studios not only has a studio area, but also a huge amusement area. Ryan simply greeted the crew and walked towards the restaurant in the amusement area with Kingsley. He just walked to the door of the studio and was blocked by the little girl again.
"A guy who only knows NG." The little girl held her hands behind her back and raised her head, "Do you still remember? You owe me a guest of the banana boat!"
"Banana Boat?" Ryan had long forgotten what had happened before.
"Last time, when I was shooting an advertisement, you kept NG..." Lindsay was very neat and told about the day. Ryan was helpless and had to say, "Okay, as long as your father agrees, I will take you to a banana boat."
The little girl said a few words to her father, and Michael Rohan nodded quickly. When he came over, he wanted to go with him, but Ryan shirked him away without a trace.
Please! Such people can even curse their daughters for money. Ryan has no doubts. As long as he follows him, he will sell what he says and do to the tabloids.
Speaking of which, Lindsay is just a little too lively and a little clever. He can't tell how big a personality flaw she has, but Ryan knows what she will look like when she grows up. That's the first Hollywood queen of Hollywood, which is more than Paris Hilton and Britney Spears, taking drugs, drinking, and self-deprecating.
Even the degenerate girl Drew Barrymore, who is now furiously hyped by the media, cannot be compared with her when she grows up.
Of course, she would have become the same appearance later, perhaps because of the big Hollywood dye vat, but more because of her family. Needless to say, his best father, alcoholism, drug abuse, and domestic violence, were all trivial. In the end, she finally got herself into prison. Her mother is indeed a little better than her father, but it was just a little bit.
Lindsay Rohan sacrificed her childhood and started shooting advertisements since she was three years old. Her income was almost the income of this family. Throughout her childhood and adolescence, what she got from her family was not warmth and care, but violence and drugs...
It is said that saving a young woman in trouble is a very fun thing, but Ryan understands that unless she is replaced with two responsible guardians, depravity is still inevitable.
After all, not every child is Natalie Portman and Kirsten Dunst. They can understand what they want in praise and pursuit and continue to work hard for it. Nor is every child a Drew Barrymore. There is a super director who is the godfather and Sophia Roland is the godmother. They can stand up again when they fall to the trough of drug use.
In fact, whether Lindsay or other child stars in Hollywood, what they need most is a professional agent who can plan and guide their future.
However, how many agents will give up their immediate interests and pursue things that may not necessarily be obtained in the future?
With the development of the entertainment industry to the present, the importance of a professional agent and a team behind the scenes is self-evident. Think about Tom Cruise in his previous life. If it weren't for Pi Jin Sili, with his blind and arrogant personality, he would have offended all the people in the circle long ago. After Cruise terminated his contract with Jin Sili in 2004, his career quickly fell to a low point, and eventually became a place where he could only rely on the old capital of "Mission Impossible". Think about the successful operation of Yao's team behind Yao Da Ge, which shows the importance of a team of professional agents.
"Okay, Ryan Jenkins, for the sake of your invitation to me for the banana boat, I will not laugh at you anymore." Sitting opposite Ryan, Lindsay was stuffing ice cream into his mouth, and he generously wrote off the grudge between the two.
"Then do I want to say thank you?" Ryan was dealing with the 10-year-old steak. Although it was a bit old, it was more attractive than bloodshot.
"Thank you, there's no need." The little girl thought for a while, "If you invite me to a banana boat again, maybe I will praise you for your superb acting skills in the future."
"Don't even think about it, Lindsay." Although Los Angeles is not cold, it's February, "If you have a stomachache..."
Ryan stopped, and he almost blurted out, "Your father will definitely be on my head." What are you doing when he told a very naive girl?
"So stingy, it's just a two-vehicle banana boat!" The little girl snorted again.
However, although this girl was young, she was a little smart and was not an ungrateful person. She lowered her head and focused on dealing with ice cream.
The two advertisements were filmed in just two days. Ryan also watched the sample film that had not been processed after the post-processing. He still retained a bit of innocence and cuteness, but as he grew older, movies like "Home Imperial" that were cute and purely funny will not be isolated from him in a long time.
In a few years, he will enter the most embarrassing period for child stars. At that time, he will be too young to play adult roles and too old to play children roles, which means that this period will often become a turning point in the fate of Hollywood child stars.
A successful transformation can soar like Judy Foster, and a failure in transformation... Well, this possibility is not great for Ryan.
Before returning to the crew of "Terminator 2", he had to attend a premiere. Since he provided the script and Nicole was the heroine again, Harvey Wienstein also sent an invitation. There is no shooting task now, so it is unreasonable not to participate.
After all, when you interact, you can only get along with each other, and your connections are gradually accumulated.
