Chapter 187

This is a typical Nordic woman with beautiful long golden brown hair. She is almost as tall as Duke wearing high heels. Her blue eyes are as bright as gems, and her pointed chin sets off the tough lines of her face. The rose-red dress with the shoulders up looks extremely fit.

If you don't look at her face, her figure is a bit like Charlize Theron, who is the type of height and shoulders.

Such women mature early, and Duke cannot tell the exact age by looking at her appearance alone. It is estimated that they are between 16 and 22.

Unlike those glamorous Hollywood actresses, she is not so beautiful, or that her makeup is obviously not a gorgeous route.

The earthy color makeup highlights the calm and dignified temperament. The light nose shadow and orange blush make the facial features look more three-dimensional. The coral lip makeup and the overall makeup are highly unified, which matches the temperament of the whole person. , It gives a sense of fashion and elegance.

After about ten seconds, Duke remembered who the other party was, after all, he said hello just now.

"Should I call you His Royal Highness? Or Your Duke?" Duke looked very polite.

Victoria laughed softly, "Do Americans care about this?"

↖ From Duke's perspective, the other party just showed eight teeth. Obviously after systematic training, he responded with a similar smile, "Not all Americans are vulgar country guys."

"That's just the opinion of the British."

When she said this, Victoria looked at the crowd. A member of the British royal family with the title of Duke quickly raised his chin to his forehead, "You can call me Vicki or Alice."

"You can also call me Duke."

The queen prince from the Swedish royal family seems to be more civilian, and there are not so many cumbersome polite words. I chatted with Duke a few words about the movie I just watched, and said, "I am very curious about the United States. I have always wanted to go to college in the United States after finishing high school in France."

"Vickie, I suggest you choose New York University Film Institute or USC Film School."

The other party misunderstood the so-called princess frame. Duke would also say a few jokes in response to the occasion, "You have a lot of insights in the film, maybe you can make something different in this regard."

This is purely to make a high school girl like Princess Victoria happy. Even a fool knows that the crown prince of Sweden cannot be a film director, but Duke's identity is different after all. He is a first-class Hollywood director with extreme seriousness. The words spoken in a tone are still very useful.

"It's nice to chat with you."

No matter how prudent and dignified she looks, she can't change the fact that she is a little girl. The smile on Princess Victoria's face is more natural and sincere. Rather than the kind of trained look just now, "I have also met several French film directors. Their words are always related to art. If you don't talk a few words, you will lose interest."

"It's my honor to chat with you." Duke said a little joke, "Beautiful Your Highness."

Although it is not a flower grown entirely in a greenhouse, it is really important to talk about insights, especially topics that are of interest to little girls like movies and entertainment circles. Princess Victoria is so far behind Duke, it may be difficult to meet someone who can talk to her. The conversation between Princess Victoria and Duke seemed very speculative, and even the age was veiled out by Duke.

Perhaps compared to ordinary high school students, Princess Victoria is smart and sophisticated enough, but in front of Duke, she is just a girl under 18 with a little smart and social experience.

They talked and walked towards the sparsely populated terrace, although Princess Victoria's attendants have been following behind. But Duke ignored them at all and kept talking about topics that the Princess was very interested in.

"Actors are not easy to do, especially for a well-recognized acting school like Tom."

During the trial just now, Duke had learned that she liked Tom Hanks very much, so he did not hesitate to pull up the tiger skin of Big Tom.

Go to the terrace. Standing in front of the railing, Duke looked at her and asked, "Remember a scene of Captain Miller crying silently in the movie?"

"Remember!" Princess Victoria nodded quickly, "Mr. Hanks' acting is really great!"

"In order to perform this scene well," Duke changed into a mysterious tone, got a little closer, and said in a low voice in the girl's ear, "Tom has put a lot of effort into it. I heard Colin say that it is Tom's eldest son. He said that during the Christmas holidays, Tom often sat alone and shed tears in order to practice this scene, but when it was time to shoot, the shot ended, and Tom's tears never stopped for five minutes!"

"God, he worked hard."

Princess Victoria stepped back a little bit, seeming to be following the etiquette and distanced herself from Duke, but Duke took the initiative to distance herself after talking about this secret, as if she was just sharing the secret with a good friend.

"If there is a chance in the future." Princess Victoria seems to have a little yearning. After all, looking at the circle from a distance, it always looks very bright and beautiful, "I really want to go to Hollywood to see it."

Duke answered in due course, "I can introduce you to Hollywood."

In fact, he was very clear. In other words, after all, the status of the crown prince is not comparable to that of the British Princess of Wales, and he will act more cautiously.

Of course, if the crown prince of Sweden can be involved with Hollywood, the media in Europe and the United States should thank him.

"It's nice to be able to chat with you."

After the attendants at the back came to remind, Princess Victoria took the initiative to extend a hand to Duke, "It's getting late, I have to rush back to the school in Paris, I must say goodbye."

"Paris?" Duke gently shook her hand. "The crew will go to Paris next week to promote, I don't know..."

Princess Victoria understood what Duke meant, moved a little closer, whispered a series of numbers, and said, "I can take you around the Seine."

After the anniversary of the Normandy landing, "Saving Private Ryan" entered the major European ticket warehouses across the board, from England to Ireland, from France to Germany, from Sweden to Italy, and the film almost occupied nearly 60% of the screens of mainstream theaters. The huge publicity has also set off a wave of movie watching in Europe.

Like propaganda in North America, the veterans who participated in World War II are also the top priority of European propaganda. Many veterans from Britain and France sang praises for the film. After the crew arrived in London, they used Tom Hank. The main cast and crew headed by Sis also frequently appeared in public and attended various publicity activities to create momentum for the film's release in the European market.

Many tabloids from Fleet Street are deeply controlled and influenced by News Corporation. In a short period of time, the focus of follow-up reports is completely on the crew, and the gossip scandals of the crew members are constantly poked out to attract this gossip. The degree of attention of the world's first country.

As the film spent its first weekend in Europe, it also attracted the attention of many European directors.

"The media can't wait to sing praises to Duke Rosenberg, thinking that he has produced a landmark work in the war film."

Replaying the coffee cup, let Pierre Hot disdain, "Even if the film's humanistic care is no longer touching and the war scenes are more realistic, it will not conceal the fact that this is a purely commercial movie, Duke Rosen. Berg is just a component of the vulgar Hollywood assembly line. "Saving Private Ryan" is just an extension of his desire for destruction and commercial methods!"

"It makes sense!"

In the café, several French directors gathered, and some of them agreed, "Duke Rosenberg and the Hollywood he is in, don't understand art at all!"

"Please don't forget that Hollywood movies have already accounted for more than 90% of the European market!"

The big fat man sitting in the corner is exactly Luc Besson who was ostracized by the European film circle. "I just got the latest data on "Saving Private Ryan". The third weekend in North America is 16.65 million US dollars. The North American box office has accumulated 1 US$91.12 million! In the first week, the United Kingdom was US$7.88 million, France was US$6.87 million, Germany was US$8.52 million, Spain was US$4.21 million, and Australia was US$4.11 million... The overseas box office exceeded US$60 million in the first week!

The café fell into a brief silence. Luc Besson had seen these peers with low eyes and low hands, and continued, "Duke Rosenberg is only 25 years old, but his movies have swept the world. Can't it be done? Can we bring some hints? Can't European films learn something from him? Are we going to hand over the European market to Hollywood?"

Luc Besson's words resonated with a few people, but more people were shaking their heads, obviously disapproving of the big fat man's words.

"Learning from Duke Rosenberg and Hollywood?"

Finally, Jean Pierre Gennet, the oldest in the field, broke the silence with a strong tone of disdain, "Let business and money stain the elegant art of film? Luc, you stay in Hollywood." After a while..."

Listening to the long talk about art by the other party, Luc Besson said nothing more lazily. The art in these people's eyes is in fact Tuotuo! Is the so-called disdain for Hollywood movies really disdainful?

For example, this person who keeps looking down on Duke Rosenberg and Hollywood's Jean Pierre Gennet has just accepted an invitation some time ago to go to Hollywood to direct "Alien 4". Is this also for art? Could he be able to make aliens into literary films?

In other words, he wants to let the alien and the heroine have a period...

Thinking of this, Luc Besson slowly shook his head, stood up and walked out of the cafe, without looking back. In his opinion, there is such a group of directors in European films that control the right to speak, and they will only continue to weaken in the future. Go down, even getting closer and closer to the death line.

After "Saving Private Ryan" spent its first weekend in overseas markets, Duke led the crew to Paris. (To be continued...)
