Early the next morning, the tabloids, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, were full of voices denouncing Murphy. The big newspapers were more restrained and cautious. They did not make random reports before they had specific news. However, the tabloids were different. They liked news that could stimulate readers' nerves most. This event was undoubtedly one of them.
"Racists..."
"Shameful discriminators..."
"Lack of the most basic respect for women, there is serious gender discrimination..."
Similar titles, as if they don't need money, are thrown on Murphy's head by tabloids, which is sharper than the attacks of Natalie Portman fans on the Internet.
It seems that these tabloids will not be satisfied if Murphy is not dragged into the abyss.
Sitting in bill Rossi's car, Murphy put down the tabloid in his hand. He was in a very stable mood. He didn't expect that Gail gado would have such key evidence in his hand, but he didn't rush to announce it. After reading it last night, he called Santa Monica, a person in charge of the Propaganda Department of Carla Firth and 20th century geofox, to fight back At the same time, to create the first wave of publicity for the film in preparation.
Of course, the publicity will not reveal the specific name and content of the film, but will focus on Murphy Stanton's new film.
In addition, after going back last night, 20th Century Fox also actively mobilized some resources. Today, news like "Natalie Portman was frustrated when she wanted to play in Murphy Stanton's new film" appeared in some newspapers and on the Internet.
For Natalie Portman, Murphy is really angry. She is pushing him to Mel Gibson.
He really didn't expect that Natalie Portman would have done this. If Gail gado hadn't been on guard for her and wanted to take some pictures to disgust her, I'm afraid it would have been very troublesome this time.
Maybe it really hurt her self-esteem that she didn't play according to the Hollywood routine?
Murphy shakes her head and smiles, but she also praises Natalie Portman's intelligence. Although her words are instructive, she doesn't directly say that he is racist or anything like that. The rest is the hype of the media.
Such a woman shouldn't be in Hollywood. She should go to Washington and compete in the more shameless election game.
"There are also Jewish militant groups that have made statements," said Bill rossis, the driver. "They want you to apologize immediately."
Murphy snorted and said nothing.
As soon as the car stopped at the entrance of the warehouse, a group of paparazzi reporters immediately gathered around. Fortunately, the security personnel of the crew were waiting here to help Murphy isolate a fairly safe passage.
"Director Stanton, are you a racist?"
The reporter could not get close to him, but could ask aloud, "don't you respond to miss Natalie Portman's remarks?"
"You discriminate against Jews. What does your girlfriend think?"
After hearing this question, Murphy really wants to ask these guys if there is something wrong with their heads. If he really discriminates against Jews, will he ask Gail gado to be his girlfriend?
But some people just want to see what they want to see.
Just as Murphy was about to enter the gate of the warehouse set, a reporter with glasses crowded nearby and asked aloud, "don't you think you should apologize?"
Murphy suddenly stopped, looked at the reporter, and snapped, "why should I apologize? To whom? Who did I hurt? On one side, you are ready to convict me? "
When reporters around saw his response, they rushed up like crazy, but Murphy stopped talking and went directly into the door.
The comments on the media and the Internet also affected the crew. Murphy didn't explain anything to anyone, and he still made his own preparations step by step.
These people who have been following Murphy for a long time have a better understanding of him, and they have been little affected. The normal work of the crew has not been greatly affected.
The most obvious influence is the negotiation on the choice of the heroine. After Charlize Theron participated in an audition, Murphy decided in principle that she would play Amy. The negotiation between the two sides also proceeded smoothly. It was basically determined that the South African American diamond's film remuneration was composed of the basic remuneration of $5 million plus 5% of the North American vote bonus.
Originally, they were ready to sign the contract these days, but when Murphy and bill rosis came to the set, they received a call from Charlize Theron's agent. The other party temporarily delayed the signing on the pretext of something temporary in Charlize Theron's advertising endorsement.
This is a very normal situation. Charlize Theron is not Murphy's friend. When this kind of racial scandal suddenly breaks out and the specific situation is not clear, he certainly does not want to wade in this muddy water.
Murphy would have done the same.
But his friends, however, strongly support him, even if they don't know the real situation.
"I don't think Murphy would say that, do these things." James - Franco in front of the reporter's microphone, position is very clear, "someone told a lie in this matter."
When we wanted to interview Jonah and Portman, she said, "we didn't want to think about it directly, but we didn't think about it She's the most vicious woman I've ever seen"I just want to say that some people look gorgeous." Robert Downey Jr. gave a special interview in Europe, "it stinks more than rotten meat."
Seth - Logan also appeared in front of the reporter, "some people lie even can't blink, Hollywood all know, there is a woman who graduated from Harvard is famous for her appearance."
Even reporters and paparazzi blocked Gail gado in front of UCLA.
"She never regarded me as a friend, and I didn't have such a friend." Gail gado directly uses Murphy's words, "real people like to be innocent, pure and shy. Only women can see who the real people are."
After seeing that scene from the set office, she didn't hide her dislike for Natalie Portman any more.
The media and the public like such topics, especially tabloids and gossip websites. They like to attract attention with such things. They are divided into two groups by tacit understanding.
One faction, from the standpoint of Natalie Portman, accuses Murphy of being a racist. Because of her Jewish identity, she is excluded from becoming the heroine of the new film.
The other side thinks that Natalie Portman is lying
They're not really in the same position as Murphy or Natalie Portman, but that's what attracts the most public attention.
In addition, along with disputes, Murphy Stanton's new film appears frequently in the media. It seems that the new film is very confidential, with only one code name of "g".
This has also attracted a lot of fans' attention. What kind of role and crew can actually attract Natalie Portman and Murphy Stanton.
The uproar of the incident must have attracted the attention of those Jewish bigwigs in Hollywood. Several Jewish leaders of CAA also called Murphy to ask what was going on. But after Bill rosis sent a copy, he chose to ignore and keep silent.
This attitude was quickly passed on by CAA. Now Murphy can make a lot of profits for CAA every year. Since he didn't say that, of course, they won't see the most potential young directors of his company backing up.
At the same time, as Murphy's staunchest ally, Carla Firth is also active in the 20th century fox, actively preparing to fight back.
If there is evidence to support it, 20th century fox will not let one person's words bring down a large amount of investment.
After three days of media hype and argument, the topic of the new film is hot. Murphy can't let the topic go on without compulsion. Many reporters and paparazzi gather at the gate of the set every day. It's good to say that, but from noon on the third day, some sporadic groups of protestors also began to appear, with banners and signs, attracting more people to participate.
If it continues, it is bound to seriously affect the preparatory work of the crew.
On the afternoon of the third day, Bill rosis and grace, in the name of CAA, invited the major media in North America to participate in Murphy's upcoming press conference, saying that Murphy would respond to the "racial discrimination" incident.
The press conference not only invited print media, but also network media and TV stations. Considering the fight for Kara Firth and the publicity of 20th century fox, Fox TV also announced that it would broadcast the news conference live through the entertainment channel.
Murphy's blog and the official blog code named "g" will also be broadcast live.
"They're going to hold a press conference?"
In the suite of Hilton Hotel, Natalie Portman looked angry. "Do they want to argue about it? Martin... "
She looked at Martin Miller, the agent who had just entered the door. "Can these things be explained clearly? Didn't you contact Jewish organizations in the circle? What do they have to say? "
Martin Miller's face was very serious. "They have chosen silence."
"Why?" Natalie Portman's voice was very sharp.
"Some of them saw something in CAA, so they decided to keep silent." Martin Miller looked at Natalie Portman. "NAT, tell me the truth. Did Murphy Stanton say that? Or have you ever expressed a relevant intention? "
He knew that his client was not generally difficult.
Natalie Portman opened her mouth and said nothing.
Martin Miller added, "Murphy Stanton obviously has evidence. You'd better go and apologize to him and reach a settlement." (to be continued). )
