Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2199 Disappointment
"How is this going?"

The next day, Lin Daoqiu saw an interview about Matt Damon in the newspaper.

Matt Damon looked horrified in the newspaper, and it seemed that he was frightened by those reporters.

Richardson and Kars were sitting in front of Lin Daoqiu, and they had read the contents of the newspaper just now.

But this matter has nothing to do with Richardson, the problem lies with the magical broker.

"There was a guy at the company who told his girlfriend that Matt Damon was going to be the lead in Spider-Man, and her girlfriend sold the news to a couple of newspapers."

Miracle Brokerage has just been established, and many rules and regulations have not had time to be set very carefully.

But that guy was just trying to show off to his girlfriend, and he didn't expect that the other party would sell the news for money.

"Expelled directly, this kind of person who can't keep secrets must not be allowed to stay in the company."

Lin Daoqiu directly gave his decision, and Kars didn't have any objections to it. After all, the other party directly leaked the information of all the clients of Magic Brokerage, although the company only has one client, Matt Damon.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Lin, as soon as I hear the news, I will immediately ask my colleagues in the HR department to fire him."

Because he hasn't had time to sign the non-disclosure agreement, and his doing so can't be called leaking the company's secrets, so he can't go to court to sue him.

It's just that everyone now knows that MGM is going to shoot "Spider-Man", and the starring role is an unknown Matt Damon.

This is definitely not good news for Lin Daoqiu, because he originally hoped to keep this secret until he couldn't hide it.

"Those reporters are like crazy, desperately calling our publicity department since the morning, wanting to know about "Spider-Man" news."

Since "Superman" hit the street, everyone's attitude towards manga movies has fallen to the bottom all of a sudden, and basically no one will see the future of manga.

Even Warner only invested 500 million to make "Batman", and that's because "Batman" has a huge potential audience, so they dared to take this risk.

But completely different from them, it was Lin Daoqiu who wanted to shoot "Spider-Man", and the investment was as high as 5000 million or more.

If Lin Daoqiu told them the news, it is estimated that the North American market would be shocked.

Fortunately, he has already bought Marvel, so he doesn't have to worry about being raised by others in the future, so he has nothing to worry about.

Unlike other movies, "Spider-Man" doesn't need too much warm-up, it just needs to wait until one month before the release after filming, and then advertise it overwhelmingly.

If this news is leaked earlier, it will be difficult for the audience to maintain too much enthusiasm for this drama. It is estimated that after a gust of wind, everyone will gradually forget about this matter and do other things.

"Go and tell those reporters that we do have the idea of ​​filming "Spider-Man", but everything is still in the preparatory stage. Whether we will actually shoot something that has not yet been determined, we can only say that we have this plan. .”

"As for Matt Damon, he is indeed the leading actor in "Spider-Man", but it is not certain whether he will play Spider-Man in the end."

Richardson nodded while listening, it seemed that Lin Daoqiu was planning to cool down the news.

But it's good to do this, after all, "Spider-Man" has been targeted by reporters before the filming started, which is not a good thing for them.

Richardson immediately went to hold a brief press conference according to Lin Daoqiu's request, and then told the reporter all the words that Lin Daoqiu had told him.

The reporters who were present originally hoped to know more about "Spider-Man" from Richardson, but they didn't expect that the film was still in preparation, and it was not certain whether it would actually be filmed.

At first, everyone thought that Matt Damon had been appointed as the leading actor of "Spider-Man", but from Richardson's words, everyone could feel that Matt Damon was just a candidate, and it seemed that he was not the only one. people.

Whether it is true or false, everyone does not know whether what Richardson said is true, but the final result is very simple, that is, there is no news about "Spider-Man", and they made a trip for nothing.

Originally, everyone hoped that the news of "Spider-Man" would bring more sales to their newspapers, but what they didn't expect was that Richardson's small press conference would directly pour water on their heads. Basin of cold water.

After the press conference ended, the reporters at the scene looked very depressed. They all felt that it was really depressing to attend the press conference today.

Not only can't get any news, but also don't know whether "Spider-Man" will start filming.

And when Richardson was holding a press conference, Lin Daoqiu had left MGM and went to an MGM studio.

"Human Purge Project" has entered the final stage, and Oliver Stone can be said to have spent a lot of effort and energy on filming this film.

But fortunately, this drama will be finished soon and enter the final stage. It can be said that the time and energy spent by Oliver Stone during this period are worthwhile.

On this day, as usual, the crew of "Human Clearance Project" is entering the intense shooting, and Oliver Stone is sitting in front of the monitor and watching the shooting scene.

At this moment, there was a commotion behind him, and Oliver Stone was very unhappy. He had repeatedly ordered that if it was not necessary, the people on the scene were not allowed to make noise to interfere with the filming.

Oliver Stone, who looked back with an unhappy face, almost cursed, but when he saw Lin Daoqiu walking towards him, Oliver Stone swallowed the thought of cursing at once.

Lin Daoqiu looked angry when he saw Oliver Stone turning his head, and the word F on his lips was about to pop out.

"I'm sorry, I'm just here to visit the set. I heard that the "Human Purge Project" is about to be finished. If I, the boss and screenwriter, don't come, it seems a little bad."

Oliver Stone shook his head quickly, he didn't dare to lose his temper in front of Lin Daoqiu, even if the other party really affected his filming, he would not say anything.

"Well, let's rest for half an hour."

Oliver Stone had to deal with the boss Lin Daoqiu first, and he admired the other party's talent very much, especially the script of "Human Purge Project" made Oliver Stone feel that it would be absolutely impossible for him to write it. Lin Daoqiu arranged it so well.
