In the "speed and passion 5" group, many people don't understand why fan is so against Lan Li, just personal resentment? Of course, this is the starting point, which is not uncommon in Hollywood, but the real reason is the strong sense of crisis in interests and status.
In the first face-to-face meeting between van and Langley when he was in telliureid, he deeply felt that it was difficult for him to gain the upper hand in front of Langley, and even fell behind many times. The threat brought by that kind of powerful momentum was even stronger than that brought by dawn. This leads to the tit for tat between fan and lanli, which can be explained as the incompatibility of Qi field, but also as the beast like dangerous intuition.
After that, a series of small actions in the crew were more like trial and suppression than revenge. Fan has been trying to suppress Lan Li. But unfortunately, it didn't succeed, which made fan feel the threat. He realized that Langley had established himself in the crew, and the rising momentum was almost unstoppable. What happened next?
Then there will be fan's loss of power, from interests to power.
Two sequels and one biography? Universal Pictures is crazy! Six million plus box office bonus? Such treatment, even in the fourth part of the series! So what's the next step? In the next step, Langley will take over the "speed and passion" series. If even Paul is on Langley's side, fan's position will be at stake, not only for this series, but also for the development of the whole actor career.
"Speed and passion" is more important to fan than "mission impossible" to Tom Cruise, "Pirates of the Caribbean" to Johnny Depp, "Iron Man" to little Robert Downey.
Apart from "speed and passion", fan has almost no box office success. Since 2005, his career has fallen into a period of total stagnation. "Speed and passion 4" is a life-saving straw for Universal Pictures. Why not for him? Without the series, van's first-line position in Hollywood would fall apart, and he could not even compare with the rising stars such as Jason stanson and dawn Johnson.
It's about survival. So, he will never compromise!
"I quit!" Fan smashed his hands on the table. He supported the table like a tiger going down the mountain. He leaned forward, glared at Neil and Michael. His blue arms and bloodshot eyes filled his face with terrible breath.
There is no doubt that fan has an absolute advantage in terms of force. Neil and Michael, together, could not resist for three minutes, and the atmosphere of tension was on the verge of breaking out.
At this time, the door of the office was severely knocked open, and Michael's assistant didn't even have time to show up. All he could hear was shouting behind him, "Paul, Paul..." the hoarse voice still couldn't stop Paul Walker's collision, and the door was shaking and wailing, almost broken.
Paul rushes in and looks at the three people in the office. He is just about to speak, but he sees the shaky door. He quickly reaches for the door and holds it. His expression becomes embarrassed. He was still not used to using force like this. He looked at Michael with an apologetic look.
It was this interruption that made Paul's momentum suddenly stagnate and soften; The atmosphere in the meeting room was slightly stiff, and fan's anger was stuck in his chest. It wasn't to let it out or swallow it down. It was extremely uncomfortable.
Paul turned his head and looked at fan, and then his anger flared up again. He had been waiting outside the office, because he knew that he was not a producer and was not qualified to attend the meeting. However, after fan's roar came out through the wall, Paul's anger was completely ignited. The more he heard, the more absurd he was, the more atmosphere he was, and the more he heard, the more he was excited! Finally, after all, I couldn't hold back and rushed in.
"Are you crazy? Fan, tell me, are you crazy? " Paul is not the one who would quarrel. After holding on for a long time, he just said this sentence. His whole face turned red and he looked at fan strangely. His sincere eyes were not so much criticism as shock. Even now, Paul still can't believe that fan would oppose the continued joining of Langley so directly. "Neil has agreed, What on earth are you against? "
Paul just stood at the door of the office. He was so angry that he couldn't believe his sadness. "Fan, you're not like that. The original things have passed, blue Li did not pursue, why do you still remember? I don't understand why you have to challenge Langley again and again. He is an actor, an actor enough to make us feel ashamed! He put in so much effort just to make our movie better. Why can't you see that? I think that even if you can't be friends, at least you won't be enemies. "
Paul's disappointment pricked fan's nerves, and his anger broke through his throat. "He's my enemy. Don't be so naive! Look at what he's asking for now, eight million yuan, and three percent of the box office bonus.... "
"That's what he deserves!" Paul rudely interrupted fan's words and roared back, "Jesus Christ, this is not your money. It's not your budget. It's not your box office. Before entering your pocket, you have no right to object to other people getting their own labor income! Universal Pictures has no objection, and the box office market has no objection. Why do you think so? "
"I'm the greatest hero of the whole series!" Fan gritted his teeth and said, "this is my series, this is my movie, this is my success! Who is he? It's just a dead fag who gives chrysanthemums! If he didn't betray me, he would not even be qualified to face me! "
"What about me? Am I not qualified? " Paul left the ground angry, he had never been so angry, "what about me? Where's Jordan? What about tyris? What about Gail? I thought, this is our work! This is our series! I thought we were a big family Paul looked at Van strangely, his hands clenched into fists, and his body began to tremble slightly because of too much force.
"Paul, not everything is about you!" Fan Yang raised his voice and tried to suppress Paul.
But Paul didn't buy it at all. Instead of going back, he said, "so, everything is about you?" The sharp counterattack was so strong that fan was stunned. "I never knew it was just your work! not mine! It's not someone else's! "
Starting from the first film of "speed and passion", Paul, van and Jordan are worthy of being the core figures. They have come to this day step by step. Paul always believed that they were a family. Even though they had differences during the shooting of the fifth film, Paul still regarded fan as a family member, not just a friend, but a family member.
Now it seems that it's just his wishful thinking.
Fan Leng Leng, and then angrily hit the desk again, "go away, Paul. You know I didn't mean that
"What do you mean, then?" Paul asked aggressively, this is not him, he is not his usual behavior, but at this moment, he can't help but take a step forward and ask further. The hot and surging sight made fan avoid his sight. Paul raised his voice and cried, "fan, what the hell do you mean? If I misunderstand you, tell me, what the hell do you mean? Why Neil has nodded to agree to the joining of Langley, but you have to continue to oppose it? Why did you just say that if lanli joined, you would quit? "
Paul like this is a little scary.
Paul, who has never been angry, fought for or confronted with each other, feels anger at this moment. Even Michael can't help but avoid his sight.
"You're so damn naive!" Fan murmured in a low voice. He didn't want to tear his face with Paul, because he knew how influential Paul was in the cast. But now Paul didn't leave him any other choice. Fan looked up at Paul again and said, "what he asked for is not only the pay and bonus, but also the power of the cast! Producer power! You know what? Next, he's going to be a producer! He's going to squeeze our part! He's even going to kick me out of the series and make it his series! Do you understand? What I'm defending is our work, our hard work
"Shut up Paul said maliciously, but Van kept on talking, "you are my friend, but he is not! I can guarantee that you can raise the film pay, you can even get a box office bonus of 15 million, OK? Isn't that a good number? I'm sure it's not just me, but Neil and Michael. Paul, old man, don't ruin our friendship for the sake of an anonymous. Let's work together to make a better sequel. If you are not satisfied with it, we can discuss the payment figures slowly. We are friends, we are
"Shut up Paul couldn't bear it any longer. He yelled that the sound was so loud that it spread all over the floor. All the busy people couldn't help but stop their work and cast their eyes.
But Paul didn't seem to notice such abnormality. He turned a deaf ear and looked at fan strangely, as if today was the first day he knew the man in front of him.
He once thought that they were friends, partners and family members; But now, the friendship and affection he cherishes is only 15 million dollars. What he pursues has never been film pay and dividends. Lan Li knows, but fan doesn't. How ridiculous, how ridiculous, in front of that face sincere fan, as if laughing at his past stupidity and innocence.
Anger rolled in the chest, but gradually cooled down, turned into a cold. The sight becomes clear. What we couldn't see clearly is now clear. This is what vanity fair looks like.
