The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1493 The storm is coming
Bruce Wayne?

So, when Sony Columbia was still arguing over whether to continue signing Anson, Anson took the lead in turning the page, waving his sleeves without taking a cloud with him, and turned into the arms of Warner Bros. without any nostalgia, having arranged a retreat early and withdrawing calmly.

But wait, Bruce Wayne?

From Peter Parker to Bruce Wayne, from a grassroots high school student to a billionaire, from Spider-Man to Batman, what kind of transformation is this? It is even more incredible than the birth of superheroes in comics, and no matter how hard you rack your brains and exhaust your imagination, you can't build a bridge to connect them.

How did all this happen?
It was so shocking and impactful that it choked my breathing. There was a roar above my eardrums and the whole world seemed to be spinning 360 degrees at high speed.

Elijah almost doubted his ears, "Bruce Wayne?" He knew it was stupid to repeat the confirmation, but he couldn't control himself.

Jenny nodded, "Batman."

Elijah gasped, his heart beating wildly and threatening to burst.

Jenny showed a satisfied expression, very satisfied with the effect of her heavy gossip, "Really. Jeff Robinov personally persuaded Anson. Moreover, Warner Bros. said that the salary can be set at will."

All the thoughts in Elijah's mind rushed out at once, but the last thing that came out of his mouth was, "Fuck."

Elijah turned to look at Jenny, "How many people know?"

Jenny, "The secretarial office knows. Also, Ruth in the HR department knows."

Elijah, "If Ruth knows, then the whole company knows."

Jenny, "I just heard that an emergency meeting has been called on the 23rd floor. How many people do you think will be there?"

Elijah didn't answer, but silently found the number "23" on the elevator button and pressed it.

……

Silence, total silence. There was no sound or movement in the entire conference room. It was so quiet that it even bred a kind of panic and fear.

The working hours had passed, but the summer night had not yet completely fallen. The blazing sunset dyed the Hudson River a brilliant orange-red, but the conference room on the 23rd floor of Sony Columbia was still busy.

He glanced secretly at Michael Lynton, but there was no trace of emotion on that calm face, which was always calm; but no one spoke in the meeting room, and even the breathing was suppressed as much as possible, and the suffocating silence filled the air.

Everyone knew that the storm was coming. While they were silent here, the damage and impact were spreading all over the place. The sharp contrast made the atmosphere in the conference room particularly strange and confusing.

Shock, astonishment, shock——

In a hurry.

An accident, a turning point, an important turning point that completely overturned the entire plan.

Even though they had confirmed the news over and over again, even though they had played out different possibilities in their minds, they still hadn't been able to find peace of mind.

Things are clearly out of control.

Elijah and Jenny were leaning against the outer wall of the conference room, but they could not hear any sound. There was only a suffocating silence.

Got nothing.

There was no point in staying here any longer, so the two prepared to leave. At this moment, Elijah hurriedly turned around and pushed Jenny in the opposite direction.

Jenny turned around and lowered her voice, "What's wrong? What's wrong!"

Elijah simply mouthed, "Amy Amy Amy."

Jenny understood what she meant and quickly held her breath, and the next second, a loud noise was heard in the conference room.

"Traitor!" Although I didn't know who it was, I could feel the rage in the thunderous voice.

"Fuck, traitor, what I hate most is traitors, traitors who betray their own people."

"How dare he!"

"Superstar, superstar, everyone says he is a superstar, does he really think he is so brilliant? But he is just a young man who has only been in Hollywood for a few years. If it weren't for us, he would still be an unknown vase!"

"So now, he thinks he's a star, that he can shine by himself? Or does he think he can pee on our heads and we have to laugh along?"

"Since he dared to step into Warner Bros. and stab us in the back, he must be prepared to face our wrath. We should let him see Sony Columbia's attitude and see whether Warner Bros. is willing to go to war with us head-on for a mere vase."

"Arrogant, conceited, arrogant, and stupid."

"People always say he's a smart guy, but now look at him, he's nothing but that face!"

"There's no need to discuss this matter. We'll just replace the actors next. Whether to restart or continue the story, we can discuss it later..."

He talked incessantly and was furious.

Even through the glass wall of the conference room, one could feel the slight vibration coming from the wall, and volcanoes exploded one after another in the room.

fly into a rage!

Sony Columbia has always believed that they hold the initiative in negotiations. It is entirely up to them to decide whether to sign the contract and on what terms. Even though Anson has the William Morris Agency behind him, they still have the upper hand.

But now, Anson didn't even start direct negotiations with them, nor did he make any attempts. He just turned around without any reluctance.

This is not only a betrayal, but also a humiliation.

Anger instantly overwhelmed reason.

Then, the door of the conference room slowly closed, completely isolating the anger inside. Before the glass door was completely closed, only one voice was heard trying to control the situation. It seemed to be Amy, but Amy's voice was quickly drowned out by the storm. Finally, the door of the conference room closed and it could no longer be heard.

Buzz, buzz, buzz. The glass door had a good soundproofing effect. Only muffled sounds were surging under the water, and no detailed conversation could be captured.

Elijah and Jenny exchanged glances, with a hint of uneasiness in their eyes:

Michael Lynton's faction is aggressive, while Amy Pascal's faction is struggling to hold on. From all indications, the change at Sony Columbia is irreversible.

So, what should these employees do?
Will Amy's confidants, especially the middle management, be purged together? Will the core employees who have been diligently assisting Amy be labeled and replaced, marginalized, or even fired?
Are they going to lose their jobs?

In the conference room, Amy looked a little helpless——

The rage was overwhelming and the momentum was huge. Everyone was so angry that reason, the overall situation, and strategy were all useless.

At this moment, even discussing the "balance of interests" is no longer useful, "Sony Columbia's face and dignity are more important than anything else."

Amy didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

What she meant was that even Warner Bros. was willing to spend a large sum of money to invite Anson, not only having to take the risk of market backlash from Spider-Man's transformation into Batman, but also having to face the wrath of Sony Columbia; and at such a sensitive time, the entire Hollywood knew that Sony Columbia was preparing to discuss cooperation with Anson on the sequel, and any company that interfered would be a provocation to Sony Columbia.

However, Warner Bros. still insisted on its own way.

Anson's value can be seen from this aspect - Warner Bros. dares to do this because Anson is worthy.
