Chapter 509

"Don't worry, Murphy. I'll be there on time, a little later at most."

A large number of reporters from "Wall Street Murphy" rushed out of the activity and detained him.

"Donny!" A reporter asked loudly, "you've made three movies in a row, and the box office in North America has exceeded 100 million dollars. How do you feel?"

Robert Downey, Jr. did not answer the reporter's question, but specifically reminded, "your statement is not correct. Now the box office of Wall Street wolf in North America has exceeded 200 million dollars, thank you!"

Many reporters are very dissatisfied with Robert Downey's stinky words, but they can't say anything. After all, in the fourth weekend of its release, the North American box office of "Wall Street wolf" has steadily passed the $200 million mark. In addition to the previous "Iron Man" and "Sherlock Holmes", Robert Downey has achieved three consecutive blockbusters.

"Robert, what do you think of the controversy surrounding wall street wolf?" Another reporter asked.

"It's a very cautionary work. The performance of the characters may be funny or funny."

In the face of the reporter's question, Robert Downey Jr. simply pulled out the previous words, "Murphy mainly wants to make this film a mirror for the audience to judge their own behavior, rather than simply make a right or wrong moral evaluation."

He pauses for a moment, and then says, "again, I hope all the audience can see Jordan Belford's process from prosperity to depravity and finally destruction, and then reflect on the consumerism culture in the current American society. In a market, it is inevitable that all people are consumers and instinctively want to get more things. "

A reporter put the microphone in front of him and asked, "but a lot of Oscar judges are criticizing the film's position and the reflected values."

"I said that before." Robert Downey, Jr. once again stressed, "these judges are completely wrong about the situation. The film itself just shows the experience and behavior of the character as original as possible, and objectively describes the process of all this without any sympathy or criticism as far as possible. "

There are reporters want to ask, Robert Downey looked at the watch, the time is late, no longer continue to answer, to the assistant winked, under the protection of several security personnel, crowded into his Bentley car, on the car.

"To Beverly Hills." Robert Downey Jr. told the driver, "Murphy's wave manor."

The black Bentley car drove out of Santa Monica business square and sped towards Beverly Hills.

Sitting in a comfortable car seat, Robert Downey looked out of the window at the fast retrogressive street lights and neon advertisements. For some reason, he suddenly had an unreal feeling.

Just a few years after his release from prison, he has changed from a drug addict who has been spurned by others to a Hollywood superstar whom everyone envies?

In particular, "wolf of Wall Street", a film whose subject matter is obviously not popular, can even achieve such excellent box office results. He has to admire that Murphy is a good hand in making films and a master in operating films.

If a film like "wolf of Wall Street" is not a series of publicity operations and word-of-mouth marketing, even if it can achieve relatively good box office results in North America, it is bound to suffer a cold reception overseas.

But now, the box office of the film is booming in North America, and the performance of the overseas market is not bad at all.

In the third weekend of its release in North America, the film began to appear in cinemas in Europe, the United States, the Far East and many other regions. So far, the overseas box office has exceeded US $151 million, the global box office has reached more than US $358 million, and the total box office has exceeded US $400 million.

"Wolf of Wall Street" has a good market performance, and it also began to gain in the awarding season. Last weekend, it just won three heavyweight awards of best director, best film and best actor of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. Moreover, he got news from his father, Robert Downey senior, that a group of influential judges headed by Frank Pearson were quite successful Support "the wolf of Wall Street". In the current situation, the hope that "the wolf of Wall Street" will win the four important nominations of best director, best film, best supporting actor and best actor is greatly increased.

Oscar winner

Little Robert Downey rubbed his fingers. He also wanted to taste the taste of holding up the best actor Oscar little golden man, but he also understood that it was very difficult to win the award for his role in a cartoon film like iron man.

The black Bentley sedan drove into the wave manor in the imagination of Robert Downey Jr. and drove along the straight road from the gate to the front of the villa.

As soon as the car stopped, Robert Downey, Jr. pushed the door to get out of the car and walked straight into the dining room without the help of a servant. Then he saw Murphy, Gail gado and Ross sitting at the oak table.

Ross seems to have changed a little bit. Little Robert Downey takes a closer look and finds that there are two less obvious scars on his face."You're late."

Murphy pointed to the empty seat at the table. "Sit down."

Little Robert Downey smiles, greets Gail gado, sits next to rose, points to the scar on his face and asks, "what's going on? What's wrong with your appearance again? "

Rose nodded to little Robert Downey as a greeting, then said, "the Vietnamese are getting more and more unruly."

"By the Vietnamese?" Robert Downey, Jr. was a little surprised. "Can Vietnamese hurt you, too?"

Rose sneered, "several leaders of the Vietnamese have gone to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean to wash..."

"Let's try this French baked snail." Gail gado suddenly interrupted rose. "This is made by the French chef I specially invited."

Little Robert Downey turns to Gael gado and sighs that she's getting smarter.

Rose next to him also looked at Gail gado. Knowing that he had just said something he shouldn't have said, he immediately picked up a knife and fork, ate a French baked snail, nodded and said, "it's very good."

"We haven't been downtown for a long time." Murphy then asked, "are Vietnamese arrogant?"

"The old Chinatown now is entirely Vietnamese." Rose shook his head, trying to pick insensitive content, said, "they are very unruly, never pay attention to ways and methods of doing things, a word is not often pulled out to kill."

Gail gado guessed that what he said just now might make Ross have an opinion in his heart. He quickly followed and eased the atmosphere. "Is there a mess over there?"

Ross just smiles, and Robert Downey Jr. says, "if it's messy, just ask Murphy. He grew up in a slum."

"Growing up in the slums like Murphy," Rose said with emotion, "there is not one person out of ten thousand who can make great achievements."

"Ten thousand?" Robert Downey, Jr. shook his head. "Don't say ten thousand. There's only one Murphy Stanton in Hollywood and America! "

"I'm just lucky." Murphy raised a glass to rose. "If it wasn't for the training in prison, I couldn't be who I am now."

Rose is very clear, it is at that time, let a little gangster into a determined man.

Thinking of Murphy's achievements, he looked up and drank all the wine in the glass, and sighed, "Murphy, I envy you very much now. Unlike me, every day is like walking on a volcano that is about to erupt."

Murphy was acutely aware that rose's mood was not right, and immediately asked, "what happened?"

"Nothing." Rose shook his head. "In recent years, I feel more and more that I have embarked on a road of no return. My eyes are dark and I can't see the future."

"Why not change the line?" Robert Downey, Jr. said with concern, "get rid of the current burden and start over. Murphy and I can help you!"

Rose showed a rather helpless smile, "where things are as easy as you say, what I do can be put."

Although he didn't participate in it, Murphy can guess with his imagination that even if rose wants to get away, he can't do it in a short time, and he can occupy most of the market share of Los Angeles City. If he doesn't involve some legal departments, no one will believe him.

Murphy thought for a moment and said, "if there's anything I can do for you, just ask."

Rose smiles, but doesn't answer him. Instead, he says, "I've been dealing with Vietnamese a lot recently. I often hear them say that some things are predestined."

"When did you believe in these things?" Robert Downey, Jr. shook his head.

"Isn't it?" Rose shrugged. "Ever since I was invaded by a Catholic priest when I was 12 years old, I've been doomed not to follow a normal path."

Robert Downey, Jr. was surprised. "What else?"

He looks at Murphy. There's no strange expression on Murphy's face. It's obvious that he already knew what rose was talking about.

As early as in prison, Murphy heard rose mention his childhood misfortune. It was the psychological trauma brought by the misfortune that made him give up his studies early and enter the society. Finally, he became rose now.

Seeing that little Robert Downey still wants to ask, Murphy slowly shakes his head. Little Robert Downey suppresses his curiosity and closes his mouth.

These sad things were soon put aside by several people. The atmosphere in the banquet hall was no longer so heavy, and gradually became harmonious. Gail gado also went to the kitchen to make an Israeli style dish farafa. Although the taste was general, it also showed the hostess's hospitality.

As the night deepened, rose took the lead to leave, and Murphy sent him to the door of the villa.

Just before getting on the bus, Ross stops and waves to Murphy.

Murphy walked over and rose said in a low voice, "I do have something to ask you for help." (to be continued). )
