Heads Up Hollywood

This is the first popular schedule for the release of new films after the "911 Incident", and the competition is as fierce as the summer schedule.

Although the director of "A Beautiful Mind" is Tang En, it is a literary film with a slow plot. Even with the golden signboard of "Tang En Walker", it has won the full trust of the movie theaters.

The number of openings for this film is only 1,226, and more film schedules and release scales have been given to commercial films such as "Silent Vitality", "Supermodel", and "Heart of Atlantis".

But "A Beautiful Mind" has a beautiful slogan: "Fix your broken heart!"

In this special time period, the film's film revenue will definitely make a breakthrough.

Taking a step back, even if the short-term box office revenue is not high, it doesn't matter.

Literary films are different from commercial films and have the attribute of long-term screening. Perhaps it is difficult to enter the top 3 or top 5 on the weekly box office list, but if the timeline is extended, especially in the awards season, the box office ability of literary and artistic films will be reflected.

"A Beautiful Mind" is a commercial film dressed in the cloak of a literary film, which evokes the heartstrings of movie fans everywhere, and its high box office is a matter of course.

Especially in this special time period.

Today is the weekend, Dunn got up, and after half an hour of simple exercise in the gym, he saw Penelope Pcruz and Charlize Theron, sitting on the sofa with their legs curled up and reading a newspaper with great interest.

Tang En couldn't help laughing, "Woke up so early? It seems that my fighting power last night was still not enough."

Next, two big beauties greeted with delicate eyes.

"Everyone is praising "A Beautiful Mind". The praise is overwhelming! Do you want to listen to it?"

Charlize Theron waved a newspaper at him.

Tang En waved his hand, "As expected! I have to call the boss of New Line Films!"

Charlize Theron looked puzzled, "Today is the weekend, do you still have to work?"

Tang En stretched his waist, "Isn't it for your business?"

"My business?" Charlize Theron was even more strange.

Because of Brett Ratner of course!

Now that Tang En has made up his mind to deal with this kid, there is no way he can give up halfway!

There are quite a few names on his blacklist, but they are all big men, and they can't be won overnight.

In the short term, the most likely to be settled is Jerry Bruckheimer.

Unexpectedly, Brett Ratner suddenly jumped out and wanted to be the first soul to be stabbed by Tang En's anger!

Tang En's internal ban on Brett Ratner, most film companies will follow the trend.

Anyway, everyone is not familiar with Brett Ratner, so things went smoothly.

But New Line Films is different. Brett Ratner used to be an MTV director. He is a young talent that New Line Films has picked up, especially the "Rush Hour" series, which has made a lot of money.

Bob Shea is in charge of New Line Pictures, and the prerequisite for being able to obtain independent operating rights from Warner Bros. is to have outstanding performance.

Rush Hour... about his position!

"Twain, the matter about Bright... must be a misunderstanding, right? I know him well. He has a strong work ethic and film talent. If he offends you in any way, you can speak up and I'll ask him to make amends to you."

Listening to Bob Shea's perfunctory, Tang En secretly sneered.

It has been many days since he blocked Brett Ratner in the circle, and most people in Hollywood got the news. Bob Shea, as the president of New Line Pictures, will definitely deal with it immediately and ask Brett Ratner to talk.

Now, Tang En has personally called, and Bob Shea is still pretending to be dizzy, obviously not intending to give him face.

Tang En said lightly: "Bob, whether it is a misunderstanding or not, you and I know it in our hearts, there is no need to pretend to be confused! I, Tang En, am young and true, but the most intolerable thing is when others step on my face!"

Bob Shea's old face darkened when he heard this, this Tang En is too domineering and unreasonable!

How many faces have you stepped on in Hollywood? Brett Ratner just used his quick tongue for a while, isn't it too cruel for you to kill them all like this?

Bob Shea pondered for a moment before sighing, "Twain, how about this, I'll be an intermediary, let him make amends for you, and give you a guarantee. In the future, your... your people, I guarantee that he won't dare Have the slightest thought of offense!"

"Apologize? It's late!" Tang En's tone was calm, but he was quite sharp. "To be honest, I'm a bit of a scumbag in Hollywood. He's an incompetent little director, and he just challenged me. This kind of The unhealthy trend must be strictly curbed! Even if it is to make an example of others, it must set a standard and set a rule for the newcomers in Hollywood in the future!"

Bob Shea took a cold breath.

Hearing Dunn's tone... he really wanted to take Brett Ratner into a knife.

But this obviously does not belong to the interests of New Line Cinema.

"Bright is a contracted producer of New Line Pictures, and he is an outstandingly talented director." Bob Shea's tone was obviously softened, even begging a bit, "Twain, you are also a Hollywood director." A big man with a head and a face knows a talented director and his contribution to Hollywood. I hope you can give him a chance in terms of the brand value of Hollywood."

Tang En categorically refused, "This is impossible! Bob, you should be clear about the current situation. I have already communicated with many Hollywood giants through Legendary Films. At this time, I let him go. This is not a slap in the face. ?"

Bob Shea is a bit angry. He is also a senior in the industry. He founded the independent film company New Line Films. Many colleagues in the industry are very polite when they see him.

Being able to run an independent film company well in the oligopoly environment of Hollywood, even if it was later acquired by Warner, is a worthy achievement.

But this time, he had already softened and shown goodwill enough, Tang En remained unmoved, and his tone was firm, beyond doubt!

Don't give him face at all!

Bob Shea couldn't help but said, "Even if New Line Films fires him, it will be cheaper for others. Disney is not afraid of you!"

When Tang En heard it, he couldn't help laughing out loud, but the laughter became colder and colder, "Bob, are you teasing me?"

Bob Shea said, "I'm just stating a fact."

Tang En said coldly: "Whether it's true or sarcasm, all I need is an attitude from New Line Pictures now! That bastard Ratner, what do you want to do with it?"

Bob Shea was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Bright has a contract with New Line Films, and he is an executive in the production department."

Tang En did not appear in the enraged scene as imagined, his face was flat, and his voice was calm, "Oh, if this is the case...then each of us can do it for ourselves."

...

Charlize Theron was wearing a shiny silver-gray hip-wrapped skirt, a blue jacket over her shoulders, and a pair of big black pants, charming and handsome in one.

Together with Tang En, she walked into a top club under the Hollywood Hotel.

This club is usually a social and communication place for some Hollywood stars and many celebrities and rich people, with sufficient security guarantees and confidentiality measures.

So Charlize Theron would generously hold Dun En's arm.

It's just that her mood...is a little nervous, a little apprehensive.

"Twain, is this necessary?"

Even Charlize Theron, the client, felt that Tang En had gone too far.

Brett Ratner did say some foul things in front of her that day, but he didn't do anything. She complained to Tang En, just wanting him to help her out.

Stand up straight when you see Brett Ratner again at a later date.

Unexpectedly, Tang En came directly to kill the grass and roots!

He's going to kick Brett Ratner out of Hollywood for good!

In the eyes of Charlize Theron, this is a big deal.

Brett Ratner did say at the time, "I want to taste the taste of Twain's woman", but as a man, when he comes up with lust, it is easy to get hot in the head and say a lot of irrational words.

Tang En's merciless attack was a bit too cruel.

However, as a woman, how could she understand Tang En's pattern and ambition?

Viacom's Redstone stepped on Dunn's face in the "Six Feet Under" incident; Comcast's Brian Roberts also secretly tripped Dunn up in the development of STA TV network .

They are all in power in giant companies, they are media tycoons, Tang En has to bear it.

But Brett Ratner, a second- and third-tier rookie director, dared to step on Twain's face like this, that was the guts of an ambitious leopard!

He can't deal with Summer Redstone, and Brian Roberts is also not easy to deal with. A little director who is not popular, if he tolerates it again, where will he put his face?

As a smelly shoe mat?

joke!

Hollywood does not know about Comcast, but it is an indisputable fact that "Six Feet Under" is currently on Showtime.

Although Tang En Pictures and Viacom both kept a low profile about this, anyone with a heart could clearly see at a glance that Redstone had frightened Tang En!

At this time, if Tang En didn't show a bit of aggressive, domineering, and tough methods, and put a damper on the atmosphere in Hollywood, maybe there would be many ghosts and monsters jumping out to make trouble.

This time, Tang En wanted to use Brett Ratner to show his power!

He can bow his head to Lei Shidong, but you... have no capital to laugh at!

Especially a little guy like Brett Ratner!

"If this was placed in ancient times, it would be an offense to Tianyan. I will punish him for a big crime of disrespect, beheading at the Meridian Gate, as it should be!"

Tang En didn't care whether Charlize Theron could understand or not, so he put his arms around her and walked towards the reserved private room.

In the private room, the environment is elegant, refreshing and pleasant. There are even artificial rockeries and a small waterfall, in which are swimming tropical fish of various colors.

There are two people who have eagerly stood up to greet them.

One is the production assistant Kent Richards of the "Rush Hour" series, and the other is David Anthony, the casting director of the "Rush Hour" series.
