Chapter 267 Vanity Fair
"Mom, I'm really fine. I just have a bad stomach."
"I can jump around now."
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I won't talk anymore. I'll take a shower and go for an interview."
Two hours had passed and Luo Ji was still a little weak, but he still managed to wash up and let the stylist apply a little makeup to cover up the tiredness and paleness on his face.
He came to Blake and Kristen: "How am I doing?"
Blake smiled and said: "Very good, no problem at all."
"That's good." Luo Ji asked calmly, "What's the reaction from the outside world?"
Blake said indifferently: "It's a normal reaction. Stomach pain is not a big deal. By the way, what did you eat today? How could you have a bad stomach?"
"I don't know." Luo Ji said casually, and it seemed that the public recognized his statement.But there should still be some people who can detect something.
Luo Ji looked at Christine, who was also looking at him with a worried look on her face. She knew something about the situation.
"I'm fine. Look, I'm not fine yet." Luo Ji patted her shoulder to comfort her, trying to look relaxed: "Let's go to the Vanity Fair celebration party."
…………
The car was parked outside the Sunset Tower Hotel on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood. Luo Ji and Christine arrived quite late. The Vanity Fair celebration party had already started for an hour.
But there were still a lot of reporters and photographers outside. Luo Ji patted his thigh and tried his best to look energetic before getting out of the car.
Participating in this party to expand his network of contacts was not the reason why he came here by forcing himself on his body.Appearing in Vanity Fair is the key to dispelling the rumors about his health.
A group of reporters didn't expect Luo Ji to come. When they saw the two of them, they immediately came up to them. They took a few photos of the two before they began to be interviewed.
A reporter from Hollywood Vanity Fair asked: "Logic, how is your health now?"
Luo Ji moved his body twice: "I'm still a little weak now, but there's no big problem."
"You seem to be in good condition now." The reporter said with a smile: "Your performance at the Oscars shocked everyone. You were helped out at that time, and your condition was not good. Many people were very care about you."
"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine now."
"Yeah." The reporter nodded, and then said with a smile: "But you still have to pay attention to a healthy diet in the future."
Luo Ji smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your advice, I will remember it."
"I wonder if you and Christine have time to shoot a few covers for Vanity Fair magazine and then accept an exclusive interview."
Luo Ji asked, "When?"
"Just a few days."
"Okay, please contact my agent."
"Thank you, Logic."
Another reporter asked: "Logic, Kristen, are you dating now?"
Kristen hesitated, but Luo Ji did not hesitate and said with a smile, "No, we are just friends."
…………
The Vanity Fair party is, in a sense, an annual gathering of Hollywood's elite.In addition to invitations to Oscar nominees every year, many industry elites will also be invited to this party.
Countless people wanted to squeeze into this party and meet some important people, but many of them had no connections, but Luo Ji had no such trouble.
Entering the hotel, the two people quickly attracted everyone's attention. Whether they knew each other, did not know them, or were more reserved celebrities in the past, they would take the initiative to express their concern.
As soon as Luo Ji finished dealing with Madonna, Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, and Kate Winslet, a woman in her 40s came over.
Kate stepped forward and gave Luo Ji a big hug: "You don't know, you almost scared me to death at the Oscars. I thought something happened to you?"
"I caused trouble for everyone, but I'm fine now." Luo Ji said sincerely, "Congratulations, you won the Oscar for Best Actress."
"Thank you." Kate looked very happy.
Luo Ji smiled and said, "You should have won the award a long time ago. I thought you should have been selected as the Best Actress during Titanic. I didn't expect that it took me 12 years for you to win."
"Hahaha, don't talk nonsense." Kate smiled brightly.
Luo Ji said seriously: "I'm not talking nonsense, I really think so."
Kristine saw this scene and silently took her boyfriend's arm.
Kate didn't care. She pulled Luo Ji and said, "Let me introduce you to the person next to me. She is Helda Qualley, the senior president of CAA, and she is also my agent."
Helda reached out her hand: "Hello, Logic."
"Hello." Luo Ji extended his hand in response.
The four of them stood together and chatted. After about 20 minutes, Kate said goodbye and left.
Her agent Helda, however, stayed behind and said with a serious face: "Logic, would you like to have a private chat?"
Kristen said quickly: "I..."
Luo Ji took his girlfriend's hand, looked at Helda and said, "If you have anything to say, you can tell me directly. She is someone I trust."
Kristen immediately took her boyfriend's arm and left a smile on her face.
Helda glanced back and forth between the two, and then said: "Okay, Logic, your film company has many projects this year, can you consider us from CAA? We can provide you with the best service."
Luo Ji waved his hand casually: "I usually don't care about small things like the company. If CAA wants to cooperate with my company, just go to the company's CEO Zhu Haowei. He is responsible for these things."
Luo Ji had experienced this kind of thing many times, and William Morris' agent also approached him through Christine.But he didn't want to argue with those agents and left everything to Zhu Haowei to handle.
Helda said: "I will go find him. But, would you like to say hello to him?"
"Okay, for Kate's sake, I'll tell him." Luo Ji changed the topic after saying, "However, it's not convenient for me to take care of this matter. It's all his responsibility. As long as you can convince him, I'll It’s totally OK here.”
"Okay." Helda had a smile on her face.
Luo Ji then looked at her and signaled that she could leave.
However, Helda had no intention of leaving. She said, "I wonder if you have seen the news about your SB agency recently?"
"What news?" Luo Ji continued, "I've been so busy lately that I didn't pay attention."
Helda looked puzzled: "Didn't your agent report to you?"
"No, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Helda took out her phone, searched it on the browser, and then handed it to Luo Ji.
"The artists under Logic Records are basically in SB Management Company. In this company, Logic owns 50% of the shares. This kind of behavior is very unfair and detrimental to the protection of artists. It may create a monopoly. "
Luo Ji returned the phone to her and said nonchalantly: "It's not like a day or two before news like this comes out. Ever since Lady Gaga became famous, it will come out in a few months."
"Don't you have any ideas?"
"No idea."
"It's not good for your reputation."
This kind of news is indeed not good for his reputation, but it doesn't hurt at all. Luo Ji from the SB management company had already told Braun that everything should be done in accordance with industry practices and not to exploit artists.
Braun also knew the seriousness of the matter. If an artist complained in the media one day, Luo Ji would definitely not let him go, so he executed it very well.
Moreover, this matter is now an unspoken rule in the music industry. Everyone does it, including him.
"I..." Luo Ji suddenly realized the identity of the senior president of Heerda CAA. He said with a serious face: "If you have anything to say, just tell me. You must have a purpose for showing me this news. There is no need to hide it. , my time is precious.”
"I can't hide it from you. Logic, you are really smart. You deserve to have an IQ of 167." Helda complimented you first, and then said seriously: "We at CAA want to acquire SB Brokerage Company."
"You shouldn't come to me about this matter, but to my agent Braun." Luo Ji said seriously: "He is the chairman and CEO of the company, and I am just a shareholder. I don't handle the affairs of the agency." Except for looking at the monthly financial reports, he is responsible for everything else." Helda said: "So if we talk it through with Braun, you will not object to our acquisition. I heard people in Hollywood said, You take your career very seriously. Many people wanted to acquire your company, but you refused them all without any consideration."
"My film company and music company are not for sale!" Luo Ji continued: "But the brokerage company is different. It is Braun's business, and I am just a shareholder. It is up to him to decide whether to sell or not."
"Okay." Helda nodded: "Then I won't disturb you, Logic."
"goodbye!"
After Helda left, Kristen asked in a low voice: "Why does CAA want to acquire your company?"
"It's normal that if the company develops well, people will be interested." Luo Ji said with a smile: "You don't know, my film company, music company, and game company have all received acquisition attempts from others. "
"Aren't you angry?"
Luo Ji smiled and touched her back: "What's there to be angry about? It's a normal business behavior. Am I only allowed to acquire other people's companies, but not mine?"
"So what you just said was the truth?"
"Of course it's the truth." Luo Ji said seriously: "It was Braun who proposed the establishment of the agency, and I completely obey his will."
"Ok."
Luo Ji then said, "What happened to you just now? She said she wanted to talk to me alone, so you just said goodbye."
Kristen said embarrassedly: "She is a big shot in Hollywood, so of course I have to give her face."
Luo Ji laughed and said, "Big shot? Why don't I feel it?"
"She's the senior president of CAA."
Luo Ji looked at her and said seriously: "Remember, in this party today, in front of your boyfriend, there are not many big shots!"
…………
"Mr. David Zaslav! I didn't expect you to come today." Luo Ji greeted him with a smile on his face and gave Warner CEO David a warm hug.
"Logic, Christine." David responded enthusiastically. Then he looked at Luo Ji and said with a worried look on his face, "Are you okay? I heard about what happened to you at the Oscars."
"It's okay. Small problem."
"That's good." David then said with a playful smile: "You kid, you are still obsessed with superhero movies, and you made a big news quietly!"
"Hahaha, isn't it because you don't accept my investment, so I can only find a solution on my own?"
"So, it's my fault?"
"of course."
Hahahaha, the three of them laughed out loud.
David then became serious and looked at Luo Ji seriously: "Where is the acquisition going now? Is the acquisition almost completed?"
"How can it be so fast!" Luo Ji continued: "This is just the initial contact with Marvel."
"Whether we need Warner's help or not, we can also participate."
Luo Ji suddenly became wary: "Well, it's not convenient for Warner to participate. You already have DC, and it may be suspected of being a monopoly. The government may not agree."
“But it’s okay for us to invest on the side.”
Luo Ji hurriedly said: "I appreciate your kindness, but I have enough funds and it is not convenient to accept new members at the moment."
"Okay." David said nonchalantly.
Kristen took the initiative to help her boyfriend: "Mr. Zaslav, I don't know what projects Warner has this year. Can you provide me with an opportunity to audition?"
"Let me think about it." David glanced at Luo Ji and then said, "There really is such a movie. The heroine is very suitable for girls of your age."
"what movie."
""The Book of Eli" is about a person in a post-apocalyptic wasteland world after a nuclear war..."
Luo Ji observed David for a while and found that he really had no intention of acquiring Marvel. He was just asking casually, and couldn't help but feel relieved.So I also joined the chat.
…………
"Logic, Kristen, come here." A little old white man wearing black-rimmed glasses motioned for them to come over.
Luo Ji recognized him at a glance. He was a famous director in New York, so he walked over and said, "Hello, Mr. Woody Allen."
He was surrounded by several actors from the cast of "Midnight in Barcelona," a film he directed and in which Penélope Cruz, this year's Best Supporting Actress winner, starred.
However, Penelope was not here; Luo Ji had seen her with Harvey Weinstein before.The two are very close.
"Logic, it looks like you're recovering well." Woody Allen said with a smile, and then said: "Here, let me introduce you to each other, this is Rebecca Hall, and this is Scarlett Lea Johnson, this is my wife Soon-Yi Previn."
"Hello." Luo Ji and Christine greeted them.
Luo Ji's eyes paused for a moment on his wife, Soon-Yi Previn, who was the protagonist of the news.
Woody Allen met actress Mia Farrow in 1980 and the two established a relationship. However, the two only lived together and did not get married.In fact, they are considered a couple and both have biological children.
Woody Allen's ex-wife likes to adopt children very much, especially East Asian children. She has adopted ten children, including Soon-Yi Previn, a Korean-American.
In 1992, his ex-wife discovered large-scale photos of Woody Allen and his 19-year-old adopted daughter, and then the matter was exposed.A bloody family ethics drama caused a stir in the media at the time.
However, because there is no evidence that Woody Allen and his adopted daughter had an affair when she was a minor, there is no legal problem.
The matter ended in nothing, and the two got married in 1997. Their 27-year-old adopted daughter Soon-Yi married her 62-year-old adoptive father Woody Allen.
In fact, as long as there is no blood relationship, who you get together with still depends on the wishes of the person involved.The two have not divorced for so many years, and the media has gradually accepted them.
A few people stood together and chatted. First they talked about Luo Ji, and then they talked about Scarlett Johansson.
Woody Allen said: "Scarlett, I think when you first debuted, you were very good in "Girl with a Pearl Earring" and "Lost in Translation", but your image has been fixed in the past few years. "
Scarlett smiled awkwardly: "I also want to expand my acting career, but no one is looking for me. All the people looking for me are that sexy and charming image."
"You have this kind of look, so there's really nothing you can do about it." Woody Allen then said: "By the way, didn't you say you were going to audition for the role of Black Widow in "Iron Man 2" some time ago? How's it going?"
"It failed. They chose Emily Blunt." After Scarlett finished speaking, she quietly glanced at Luo Ji next to her.
Woody Allen smiled and said: "Logic, maybe you can help Scarlett."
Luo Ji waved his hand: "Whether my acquisition of Marvel will be successful or not remains to be seen. Besides, even if the acquisition is successful, I will not interfere too much in the operation of the film project. This is out of respect for the creators."
"Okay." Woody Allen didn't bother too much, and there was a slight look of disappointment on Scarlett's face.
After socializing for so long today, Luo Ji found that most of the people who came to him had something to ask for. Everyone was scheming and it was very tiring to deal with them. In addition, his body had not fully recovered yet, so Luo Ji said goodbye and prepared to go home to rest.
"Don't worry." Woody Allen continued: "Logic, what do you think of New York filmmakers?"
"It's pretty good. There have been many, many good works." Luo Ji told the truth. Although New York movies are closer to literary films, they have also produced many excellent works and made money.
Woody Allen then said: "Then as a New Yorker, why don't you invest in New York filmmakers? All your investment is in Hollywood."
"I don't know any filmmakers in New York, and you are the first one today." Luo Ji said with a smile, "Do you still need my investment?"
"Of course I don't need it, but other New York filmmakers do." Woody Allen continued: "Perhaps, when I return to New York, I can introduce you to some young New York directors when I have the opportunity."
"Row."
Luo Ji agreed. With the development of the film company, he also needed to introduce some new blood to the company.
Just like Christopher Nolan, a talent that Warner cultivated a long time ago. His film projects are all led by Warner, and Nolan has now become a big director.Almost every movie makes a profit.
Luo Ji also wanted to find such a director. He didn't have to make a profit on every movie, just two-thirds.
The more talents who can make money for him, the better.

"Mom, I'm really fine. I just have a bad stomach."
"I can jump around now."
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I won't talk anymore. I'll take a shower and go for an interview."

Woody Allen then said: "Then as a New Yorker, why don't you invest in New York filmmakers? All your investment is in Hollywood."
"I don't know any filmmakers in New York, and you are the first one today." Luo Ji said with a smile, "Do you still need my investment?"
"Of course I don't need it, but other New York filmmakers do." Woody Allen continued: "Perhaps, when I return to New York, I can introduce you to some young New York directors when I have the opportunity."
"Row."
Luo Ji agreed. With the development of the film company, he also needed to introduce some new blood to the company.
Just like Christopher Nolan, a talent that Warner cultivated a long time ago. His film projects are all led by Warner, and Nolan has now become a big director.Almost every movie makes a profit.
Luo Ji also wanted to find such a director. He didn't have to make a profit on every movie, just two-thirds.
The more talents who can make money for him, the better.
