Chapter 28 Celebration Banquet

Located in an estate in Santa Monica, the celebration party for "Shark Beach" is being held here.

The people who came and went were basically big shots in Hollywood. In the past, when little Gilbert saw these big shots, he always had to accompany them with a smile on his face. Today, it was rare for him to be given the honor to attend the celebration banquet.

Of course, it was just to give him face to attend the celebration banquet. After all, little Gilbert only had one successful movie. Who knows whether it was short-lived...

So it’s good to have a friendship. In the future, when little Gilbert proves his abilities again, there will be plenty of opportunities for everyone to cooperate.

Little Gilbert held up his wine glass, his face frozen with laughter, but he had to cheer up and continue socializing.

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can actually go to the bathroom to vomit for a while. It will feel much better." At some point, Sheena Boone appeared next to little Gilbert.

"Hey, Miss Boone, it's you! Long time no see." Little Gilbert patted his chest, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Go vomit for a while!" Sheena Boone reminded.

Little Gilbert followed his example and went to the bathroom to throw up, then washed his face and felt much better.

When I walked out of the bathroom door, I accidentally bumped into a girl.

"Sorry..." Little Gilbert apologized.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see you. Are you okay?" The girl raised her face and looked at little Gilbert with concern.

"Uh, I'm fine..." Little Gilbert was stunned when he saw the girl's face

"I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry. Why don't you leave your contact information and I'll treat you to dinner another day to express my apology." The girl spoke very sincerely.

Coupled with her watery, gleaming big eyes, she is simply unstoppable.

"Okay..." Little Gilbert agreed, and the two exchanged contact information.

Little Gilbert saw the girl's name, Cameron Diaz.

After the girl left, Sheena Boone came over to little Gilbert again and said: "It's a very childish method, isn't it?"

"But it's also very effective. At least no one will have the heart to refuse after seeing her face." Little Gilbert commented.

"Aren't you afraid that Gwyneth Paltrow will be jealous? Your scandal is still being hyped outside." Sheena Boone asked.

"That's not true," little Gilbert said nonchalantly, looking at Gwyneth Paltrow who was talking to a handsome white guy: "Our relationship was originally fake, we just satisfied each other."

At this time, another person came over: "Congratulations, little Gilbert. Congratulations on the success of your movie."

Sheena Boone whispered, "This is Robert Iger, who runs Touchstone Pictures. He likes to be called Bob."

After hearing Sheena Boone's reminder, little Gilbert put on a warm smile and shook hands with Robert Iger: "Hi, Bob, thank you for your congratulations."

The smile on Robert Iger's face was warm: "Little Gilbert, are you interested in cooperating with Touchstone Pictures? I have just taken over Touchstone Pictures and I am in urgent need of a talented director like you."

Touchstone Pictures is a production company owned by Walt Disney. Compared with Disney's strength in the animation field, Disney's live-action film business is far inferior to other Hollywood giants.

For this reason, Disney Chairman Michael Eisner deliberately transferred his right-hand man Robert Iger to Touchstone Pictures, a subsidiary of Walt Disney, and put him in charge of the live-action film business.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. Universal has Spielberg, 20th Century Fox has George Lucas and James Cameron, and Paramount and Warner Pictures have close cooperation with many first-line Hollywood directors.

MGM also owns the 007 series and the rights to many classic movies, and Sony Columbia Pictures... they have the money. Only Walt Disney is completely useless in the live-action film business, not even as good as some second-tier production companies.

By this time, Robert Egger had noticed little Gilbert, and he judged that little Gilbert was about to take off.

So unlike others who just wanted to get to know little Gilbert, he really wanted to cooperate with little Gilbert.

This is a celebration occasion for Universal Pictures, and this is not the time to talk about cooperation.

So little Gilbert declined: "Sorry Bob, my cooperation with Universal Pictures has not ended yet. If there is a next project, I will definitely consider Touchstone Pictures."

"It doesn't matter," Robert Iger left his contact information: "If you have an idea, please contact me at any time, the door of Touchstone Pictures is always open for you."

After Robert Egger left, little Gilbert turned around and asked Sheena Boone: "Ms. Boone, are you interested in representing my brokerage business?"

Sheena Boone, who had already established a good relationship with little Gilbert, was waiting for this opportunity: "Okay, let's find a time and let's talk in detail."

"Okay," little Gilbert agreed, and asked curiously: "Have you signed the Matt Damon I introduced to you last time?"

"It has been signed. I have secured several opportunities for him, and he has appeared in several supporting roles, and his development is pretty good." Sheena Boone said, and took out her business card and handed it to little Gilbert.

"Super Artist Management Company, your company's name is quite impressive. How many people are there currently in the company?" Little Gilbert took the business card and asked curiously.

"The company is in Burbank, not far from downtown Los Angeles. Currently there is only one person who answers the phone and cleans the house, and an assistant." Sheena Boone was very honest.

Although Super Artist Management Company has just been established and is not as good as CAA, ICM and other big agencies, it is mainly Sheena Boone who little Gilbert admires.

There must be many conditions for joining a big company. Little Gilbert doesn't like to be manipulated by others, so signing a contract with Sheena Boone is a very good choice.

After the celebration party, Gwyneth Paltrow found little Gilbert: "Little Gilbert, I'm no longer in love."

"Wow, are you so direct?" Little Gilbert looked a little surprised.

"It's so direct. Thank you for the happiness you brought me during this time. I think I have found my true love. It's time for us to separate." Gwyneth Paltrow has always said something and never understands it. Beating around the bush.

"Okay," little Gilbert had expected this scene: "Congratulations, Gwen, we'd better hug again!"

"This is okay..." Gwyneth Paltrow threw herself into little Gilbert's arms and whispered, "I will always remember you."

"You should forget about me. If your true love knows that you are still thinking of me, he will be jealous."

"Hehe, don't worry, I won't tell him." Gwyneth Paltrow left Little Gilbert's arms and took a deep look at Little Gilbert: "Then goodbye, Little Gilbert."

After saying that, he strode forward and never looked back.

Looking at Gwyneth Paltrow leaving, little Gilbert still felt a sense of loss. To be honest, it was quite a pleasure spending time with this girl.

However, the relationship between the two has always been a temporary partnership, and their relationship was all promoted in conjunction with Universal Pictures.

Lovers break up sometimes, let alone temporary partners.

A few days after the celebration party, little Gilbert went to Sheena Boone's office in Burbank. After the lawyer read the contract, he happily signed his name on the agency contract.

Sheena Boone has also officially become Gilbert's full-time agent, responsible for promoting her film projects with film companies, as well as negotiating remuneration and other aspects.
