"Mel Gibson accused me of not working with you! Who does he think he is?"
It can be seen that two arrogant people collide with each other and the consequences are very serious. Tom Cruise's eyes are full of anger, "I have a relationship with any actor, any director, any producer and any film company. Freedom of cooperation, let alone Mel Gibson, even his agent Martin Bob has no right to stop me!"
"You do have this right."
Duke raised his glass to him, and Tom Cruise drank half a glass of champagne with his head up, and said indignantly, "Can Mel Gibson think his agent is the owner of CAA, so he can point me to me?"
"Tom, doesn't this little thing need to be so hot?"
This is all persuasion, but the actual effect is to add fuel to the fire. Tom Cruise drank the remaining half glass of champagne, "Not only that, he also accused me of not working with a Jewish pig... …"
He said quickly, "Sorry, Duke, these are the original words of Mel Gibson."
"It's okay." Duke smiled generously.
"We are collaborators, we are friends, Duke." Tom Cruise looked very righteous, but his words were somewhat credible,-∝, then only Mel Gibson would know, "For That's why I quarreled with him."
Things are definitely not as simple as he said, Duke is sure of this.
Sure enough, Tom Cruise said again, "He... that vulgar Australian savage said that I would only sell my face on the screen! He said that I had no acting skills! He said that I succeeded only because of my appearance!"
These words obviously poke Tom Cruise's sore spot, his face was so dark that it almost dripped water, "What is he? Duke, he is just your defeat! Just a shameful loser!"
It seemed that the champagne glass in his hand was Mel Gibson, and Tom Cruise placed the glass on the small round table in front of him. There was a crisp sound.
With his chin in his left hand, Duke looked directly at Tom Cruise, looking very sincere, "Tom, in this world, the person I admire and respect most is my mother."
Tom Cruise was a little puzzled. I don't understand why Duke mentioned his mother.
Duke smiled and said, "Mother told me that language is the least powerful way to fight back!"
"Let the best of you appear in "Chicago", I believe I will succeed, and I believe you will succeed!" Duke reminded him vigorously, "When you get the Oscar statuette, can he still laugh When you walk up to Gibson with the little golden man, you can enjoy it..."
Cruise nodded first. Then he frowned and said, "Brave Heart is rushing for the prize, will he get it?"
"Action is the best way to fight back." Duke said lightly.
"We have to wait for the opportunity." Tom Cruise stood up, "The insult that Mel Gibson put on me, I will double it back!"
Seeing Tom Cruise's back, Duke suddenly felt that he had come to this party tonight. Actually harvested an enemy enemy.
How can Tom Cruise and Mel Gibson's deteriorating relationship be used? This is a question that Duke must carefully consider.
The departure of Tom Cruise did not improve, the reason why he clashed with Mel Gibson. In addition to the other side interfering with his freedom to pick up the film, ridicule will only be a good face, but also because he got news from other places. When Nicole Kidman returned to Sydney a year ago, he appeared in a hotel with Mel Gibson. And stayed for three hours...
This is also one of the reasons why he and Nicole Kidman broke out that night.
the other side. Walked into the palm grove on the left side of the garden with Mel Gibson. Martin Bob's face was also ugly. Caa first had Tom Hanks and Duke Rosenberg working together, and then Tom Cruise. Cooperating with Duke, this not only shows to the outside world that the internal conflicts of caa are sharp. He also told the whole Hollywood that he did not completely control caa at all.
This will have an impact on his prestige and status in caa. Martin Bob knows very well that he cannot get rid of his relationship with Ino Martin. The opponent has always been his strongest competitor, and he is always planning his position. Together with most partners such as Pat Kingsley, he is in danger.
In fact, the voice of questioning him has been increasing in recent years. The most direct cause is that the leading packaging projects are always lower than expected or even fail. For example, "Brave Heart", no matter how sophisticated he is, it changes. Not to mention the fact that this film failed at the box office.
The North American box office of the film has so far been less than 25 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is only more than 73 million U.S. dollars. Let alone generate revenue, the producer is far from recovering the cost.
And the biggest hope for this film to stand up is the Oscar. If you can get heavyweight awards such as best actor, best director or best picture, you can use it on video tapes and videos like last year's "Shawshank's Redemption." The TV broadcast copyright and other markets have achieved a turnaround.
The Oscar is the last hope of "Brave Heart". Even if the follow-up market cannot turn around, as long as it gets a heavyweight award, it can still be considered a success for caa.
Under the bright light, Martin Bob and Mel Gibson both kept silent, and walked forward slowly, perhaps because the night is getting deeper, the whistling sea breeze blew through the woods, making a rustling sound. .
I met a few actresses who hit up a conversation on the road. Both of them ignored the mood. They simply turned to a quiet path and found a bench to sit on it so as to think about what special way to use tonight. To please the college judges present and win the votes of the future in their hands.
If those old guys are interested in Mel Gibson, it's much simpler.
Martin Bob looked at the savage next to him. He would surely make Mel Gibson bend over and push up his ass.
Footsteps from far to near, a few people walked tens of feet away and stopped, because a few thick palm trees blocked the sight, Martin Bob and Mel Gibson couldn't see who was coming, they could only listen. To the words they discussed.
"Levy..."
It was an old voice, "Who do you prefer in the movies that have been released?"
"Old man. Have you forgotten our rules?"
Hearing these words, Martin Bob and Mel Gibson's ears were pricked up, and the owner of the voice had only been seen at night. It was Levy Lausman, the rotating chairman of the academy!
"We have had friendship for more than fifty years." This is another voice, "Levy, this is just a private discussion. It does not violate the rules of the college."
Martin Bob and Mel Gibson looked at each other and listened intently to the conversation over there. They must be discussing Oscar-related topics.
Levi Rausman's voice sounded again, "If there are no impressive films in the next schedule, I think "Saving Private Ryan" and Duke Rosenberg are the most appropriate choices."
"Don't you think he is younger? And his reputation in the critics is not good."
"I know this." Levi Lausman didn't try to persuade his peers, his tone was flat. "Public opinion always criticizes us for lack of motivation to reform. We always have to come up with something substantial, the best director's. The age record will be rewritten one day..."
Speaking of which. The voice suddenly turned serious, "Why isn't the person rewriting a Jewish person?"
"Your words have some truth, Duke Rosenberg is our own after all."
The discussion over there continued, and the faces of Martin Bob and Mel Gibson became extremely ugly. They naturally knew how strong the Jewish power in Hollywood was.
Damn Jewish pig!
Mel Gibson cursed in a low voice, why didn't all these **** chores be killed by the Nazis?
After a few minutes, the discussion over there disappeared. Then footsteps sounded again, except for the sound of wind nearby. Quiet again.
"This is the result of Warner and Fox PR?" Mel Gibson asked.
Martin Bob nodded. "It's possible."
He added, "Duke Rosenberg's ethnic advantage may bring some uncontrollable factors."
Regardless of this, Mel Gibson couldn't deny it, his left hand slowly tapped his right hand. His brows gradually frowned, and his eyes were full of thinking.
After half a minute, he suddenly said, "Martin, remember Sophie Marceau I mentioned?"
"Sophie Marceau?" Martin Bob hesitated. "This matter must be cautious!"
"Oscar is the last chance for "Brave Heart". Duke Rosenberg and his movies are our biggest rivals!"
That name seems to have become a curse in my heart. The troubles and miserable defeats that the opponent has created for him have been unforgettable by Mel Gibson, and this is also the key to his impact on the most authoritative awards. From the current situation Look, if you win, the best director will be close at hand...
"Martin, although there is no evidence to show that, in the past Oscar competition, caa must have used some special methods, right?"
Martin Bob's silence is more like tacit approval.
"Have you forgotten the losses Duke Rosenberg has brought to the projects you are leading?" Mel Gibson seemed to be William Wallace shouting'freedom'. "Or your ambitions are all Was worn away?"
"I'm thinking about specific countermeasures." Martin Bob's eyes flashed, "Thinking about how to move Sophie Marceau."
"Did you think about it?" Mel Gibson asked.
"Judy Foster can spend the night with the female producer for the heroine of Pear Blossoms, Julia Roberts can sleep with all the producers for "Pretty Girl", and Demi Moore for "Human Ghosts Are Coming" can participate in the producers' carnival parties. As long as the benefits and bait are large enough, these fame and fortune-seeking actresses can take off their pants and go to the red carpet!"
Martin Bob stood up, "I decided to adopt your suggestion, we will go to see Sophie Marceau
