~： Five hundred and eighty-four - Michael Eisner won't toss me out of business, but Wayne...

"Harvey, maybe you and Ben don't need to do this."

In the studio's dressing room, Matt Damon chatted with Harvey Weinstein in a low voice. They arrived here at noon. According to the time, they had already waited for a long time. Such a scene is unpleasant to say. The point is the humiliation of Miramax's president, Chi Luoluo.

"Walt Disney has blocked the target from Warner Bros. It's been a few months, and we haven't seen Warner Bros continue to make trouble. I don't think Wayne Greenberg will be chasing him anymore. After all, the media is very concerned about His reporting has never been a careful person."

"Ah!"

Even though it's been years since no one has given himself this humiliation, Harvey Weinstein is quite composure. In the face of Matt Damon's persuasion, the first response was a sneer. "Believe me, I know Wayne Greenberg better than 90 percent of the people in the world."

Raised his wrist and glanced at the time, his huge body moved back and forth slightly to relieve the discomfort caused by sitting for a long time. "You think it's over? No, as long as Wayne Greenberg doesn't nod himself, maybe at that time, he'll definitely give me another shot, and then it won't be the harassment of Warner Bros., this young man , it's black inside!"

Harvey Weinstein never hesitated to use his own standards to measure the young Jewish director. Even in his heart, the darkness and the lower limit of that guy are more shameless than the shameless person known to everyone.

If Wayne Greenberg is really a sunny gentleman, a kind-hearted social activist, and a philanthropist as reported in the media, it is impossible for him to climb to the present at such an amazing speed in this dirty circle. Location.

"It's been a long time, and he obviously doesn't want to see you."

Matt Damon also saw his movement of looking at the time, shrugged his shoulders, and said helplessly: "Didn't you just get a call from Disney? Maybe you should go to work first, I heard that Michael Eisner I have always been eyeing Miramax, will this cause..."

Shaking his head firmly, Harvey Weinstein's fat face was constantly shaking, and even in the face of Matt Damon's persuasion, he had no idea of ​​leaving first.

"Listen to me, Matt."

At this time, the fat face was full of seriousness, and he turned to look at Matt Damon, who was sitting beside him waiting for his friend, with extremely serious emotions in his eyes. "Michael Eisner has always been uneasy and kind-hearted, wanting to swallow Miramax in one bite, but he won't try to toss me and Bob out of business just because he wants the whole Miramax! You know ?"

Speaking of this, his mouth gritted his teeth without hesitation, showing that he was not completely calm. After a pause, before Matt Damon opened his mouth, he stretched out a thick finger and erected it in front of the two of them. "But Wayne Greenberg will, I swear, he will!"

After speaking, he let out a long breath, and the silence between the two returned again. In the whole dressing room, there was no other sound.

These remarks actually had a considerable impact on Matt Damon. He obviously didn't even think about it, and that's what Harvey Weinstein was worried about. You know, even if it's two people in the circle who don't deal with it anymore, at most, they just try to find a way to splash dirty water and find trouble. Everyone is an elite with status, right?

Generally speaking, it is a very surprising achievement to be able to completely withdraw the opponent from this circle and disappear for a few years.

This is a business society with perfect rules. Once excessive means are used, it means that the bottom line will disappear, and the other party's revenge will follow. But obviously, the way to destroy a well-known film company boss, a successful producer, and a capitalist is to bankrupt him, which is definitely more uncomfortable than killing him.

Time passed by minute by minute, until it was almost time to get off work, the dressing room door was pushed open, Ben Affleck walked in excitedly, followed by the plain-looking Nicky. Na.

"Mr. Weinstein, Mr. Greenberg is waiting for you to chat."

"Ok, let's go."

In just one sentence, there were two people left in the dressing room. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck looked at each other for a while. Neither of them spoke first, but with their tacit understanding, they both understood. The eyes of the other party, that is everything, go back and talk about it.

"Congratulations, you have become the number one box office in film history!"

In the director's office, Harvey Weinstein sat across from Wayne's desk as if he were an old friend. "You did a great job this time. The Dark Knight and your name were firmly engraved in the history of film."

"You should be clear that a successful movie is definitely not the credit of me alone." Wayne nodded in response, and then ignored Nina, who was closing the door, and said directly: "Harvey, let's be honest, it costs so much. I'm thinking about asking me, wanting to talk about something, I'm very busy with work."

Yes, looking at Cate Blanchett's honest face, he is willing to give this fat man a chance to communicate. But this doesn't mean that he has forgotten the bad things the other party did at the beginning of the awards season.

It seems that everything is going well, and the crisis seems to have been dealt with, but in fact, what if the other party succeeds? That means that I deliberately postponed DC for a year, and the "The Departed", which has done a lot of preparations, will fail at the Oscars, and it will delay a whole year in vain.

It also means that if those tricks succeed, "Batman: The Dark Knight" will also face a major crisis, re-shooting shots, re-editing and other work, who knows if it can still achieve the current results?

Therefore, in Wayne's side, he never felt that these were trivial matters, and he never became disapproving because the opponent's means failed.

One thing this fat man guessed right, he is not an open-minded person at all. If nothing else, the works that are guaranteed to be successful in his studio will be released next year and later on the same schedule as Miramax's films.

Just like this fat man thought, Wayne's biggest revenge is to make you lose money in an open and honest way, one by one, the studio's movies are not frequent enough, and there are Warner Bros. behind them. Those sequels are all right. Like a dull knife, it will grind Miramax to death and all Harvey Weinstein's wealth.

"Remember 'Brier the Witch'?"

Since he will come over, Harvey Weinstein has full confidence, so from his expression, he can't see any worry, but like a casual chat between old friends, he crossed Erlang's legs and said, "I remember that time we Since we have had successful cooperation and brought considerable benefits to each other, why don't we continue?"

Without any kindness, Wayne laughed a few times, and after lighting the cigarette, he replied bluntly. "Harvey, if I want to cooperate with anyone, even if it is the sixth major, I will take the initiative to come to the door with the money."

Not only the tone, but even the eyes, looking at the fat man opposite at this time, are full of condescension, precisely these two sentences, all of which are really not true, no one can deny it.

After pondering for a while, Harvey Weinstein seemed to have not seen the sarcasm coming from the opposite side, the smile on the corner of his mouth remained unchanged, and he shook his head. "You're right. But who would think too much money, wouldn't they?"

"I have a project in my hand that requires very little capital, but the success rate is very high." The upper body leaned back on the chair relaxedly, and Harvey Weinstein's tone was very serious. "Wayne, I have to say, you have played out this year's Oscars, and at the same time, you have turned the award into another mode of operation, which has inspired me a lot.

In the past few months, I have carefully studied the tastes of the group of judges in the academy for the past two years, and I have also carefully studied all of your award-winning strategies. Believe me, this project, I have the confidence to replicate your operations and bring it to the Oscars main stage. However, if you, the inventor of the Jinyuan Chong Prize Offensive, would join in, it would obviously be more secure, so I sincerely invite you to join..."

As Harvey Weinstein continued to narrate, a smile really appeared on Wayne's face. The benefits, the benefits delivered to the door, and the benefits with negligible risks are obviously the source of the other party's confidence.

As it happens, he really eats this set, since the other party is willing to take out real money to share, he is not stingy to swallow it without any psychological burden. Obviously, when sharing these benefits, this fat man can not only become a partner with himself again, avoiding the revenge that he doesn't know when, but also get other invisible benefits. Again, no one is stupid in this circle.

Ten minutes later, with a "pop", two palms belonging to different men were photographed together in a very tacit understanding. Write down the cooperation plan this time.

"Harvey, $8 million, and Greenberg Studio will only give out the 8 million." The smile on Wayne's face gradually faded, and his tone returned to business again. "This project called "Shakespeare in Love", I want half of all the proceeds. As for how you want to go to the Oscars, it's your business. I just have an idea, I don't have time to participate."

"no problem."

Although his heart is bleeding, the smile on Harvey Weinstein's face has not changed. "Look, I said, we will find the cornerstone of the cooperation. But Wayne, I have to remind you again, the copyright belongs to Miramax, and Greenberg Studio only enjoys the profit!"

"Ok, that's it, you can go back and make the contract."

Until the huge figure of Harvey Weinstein disappeared from the office for a long time, Wayne had a smile on his face, which made Nina, who was quietly packing up and preparing to go home, felt a chill from time to time. The boss's smile at this time always made her feel unspeakable wretchedness.

Wayne was still muttering until he got into the car home. "Harvey, I'm looking forward to it, after you tinkered with Cate Brecht to be the most watery in history..."
