After having a meal with Winona, Link took her to a café downstairs for a casual chat while also talking with Tom Cruise.

Tom Cruise congratulated Link on achieving a higher ranking on the Forbes rich list and also congratulated Guess Pictures for taking the top spot in the industry last year, creating a remarkable achievement.

Link expressed his gratitude and asked him about the progress of filming "Mission: Impossible."

Tom Cruise said that filming was still in progress, but due to the weather, they were temporarily taking a few days off.

Tom Cruise asked about the situation with "Jerry Maguire."

Link said it was still in preparation and planned to start filming in the second half of the year. If he was interested, he could try out for the male lead.

Tom Cruise asked him if he would direct the film.

Link said he wasn't sure and would direct if he had time.

Tom Cruise expressed his hope for a chance to collaborate with him.

After saying that, he glanced at Nicole, who was chatting with Winona on the side. He sincerely said that he had been busy filming in the crew recently and didn't have time to take care of Nicole.

He hoped that he could help take care of her in the crew and make her happy, and he wouldn't mind the scandals in the newspapers.

Link took a sip of coffee and said he could.

"Link, you are indeed a very remarkable person. Among the people I know, no one can compare to you. It's just that I used to be too familiar with Robert Downey Jr. and Richard Gere, and I heard too many negative comments about you from them, and I also regarded you as a bad guy.

Now I know you are not the kind of person they said you were. Everyone misunderstood you, and I also misunderstood you. I apologize to you here, and I hope you can forgive me."

Tom Cruise apologized politely.

Link looked at Tom Cruise's expression and eyes and smiled, "It's okay!"

After sitting in the café for more than ten minutes, Link and Winona got up and left.

The next day, many media outlets published photos of Tom Cruise visiting Nicole on the set in New York and presenting her with flowers, indicating that the two were very loving.

There were also reports that under Nicole's introduction, Link and Tom Cruise chatted in a café, their relationship eased, and there might be a possibility of cooperation in the future.

Because Link and Tom Cruise were extremely famous, and there were many rumors of conflict between the two, which were also highly credible, the news that the two were drinking coffee together and preparing to cooperate made their fans very happy.

A reporter interviewed Tom Cruise afterward and asked him if the news was true.

Tom Cruise excitedly said it was true, praising Link as a remarkable person and looking forward to working with him.

The reporter asked him how he viewed the rumors between Link and Nicole.

Tom Cruise said with a smile that Link was a very good person and wouldn't do such a thing, and Nicole was also a very good wife, and he believed in Nicole.

During a break from filming, Link saw the reports in the media and felt a little ashamed for a moment, regretting accepting the immoral service that day.

However, thinking of what Tom Cruise said on the phone that day, and asking him to take care of Nicole while drinking coffee, implying that he could mess around with Nicole.

In an instant, regret and shame vanished.

In this matter, he was passive throughout and was also the party who suffered the loss, so there was no need to bear a moral burden at all.

"Link, my injury is healed. When will you let me film?"

During a break, Nicole Kidman walked up to him with a smile, wearing a beautiful long dress, with a tall and plump figure, and fair skin shining with a cold light under the New York spring sun. Her red lips and the smile at the corners of her lips were bright and warm, and her condition was very good.

Link heard that there was no problem with her voice, and the redness and swelling of her lips had disappeared. He nodded and said, "Prepare first, we'll film your scenes tomorrow."

"Okay!"

Nicole Kidman blinked her eyes and left with a gust of fragrance.

"It's another day of envying Link! If a beauty like Nicole smiled at me like that, I would definitely die of happiness."

Jim Carrey shrank his neck, "Oops, Link must have heard what we said. Haha, Link, what's wrong?" Jim Carrey walked over with a smile.

"Jim, 'Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls' will be released next week. We'll film your scenes first these few days. After filming, you can go back to do publicity. You should hurry up these days and prepare in advance."

Link said.

"No problem! I guarantee to give my best performance."

Jim Carrey stood at attention and gave a military salute.

After a short break, the crew continued filming.

On Friday, "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls" was released in North America.

This was the third film released by Guess Pictures this year.

Because the box office performance of the previous two films was lower than expected.

Before the release of "Ace Ventura 2," the media generally didn't look favorably on the film's box office, believing that Guess Pictures was on a downward trend and that the new film's box office would continue to be sluggish.

The seven major media groups used their affiliated media to attack the film, claiming that the film was definitely a bad movie. At the same time, they arranged two relatively strong films to compete with "Ace Ventura 2" for box office revenue, putting pressure on Guess Pictures' films step by step.

In order to resist the suppression of the seven major film companies, Guess Pictures invested a lot of resources and funds in publicity and distribution, using various forms to promote the film and increase its exposure.

At the same time, it also forced the seven major film companies to continue to bet, to see who would win in the end.

Because the competition between the two sides in public opinion was relatively fierce, "The Hollywood Reporter" commented that after the annual box office rankings were announced, the seven major film companies obviously felt the pressure from Guess Pictures.

In order to regain the market and audience, they prepared to compete for box office revenue without waiting for the summer season, which also showed how fierce the competition in the Hollywood film industry is currently. It can also be foreseen that this year's summer season will also be a fierce battle.

In addition to "The Hollywood Reporter," mainstream media such as "The New York Post" and "The Wall Street Journal" also reported on this matter.

Under the promotion of many large media outlets, the struggle between the 'new overlord' Guess Pictures and the 'seven giants' was brought to the forefront, attracting more attention.

"Link's life is really wonderful. One moment it's Forbes, the next it's scandals, and now he's taking on the seven major film companies. Living like him is considered a magnificent life."

In a bar, director Steven Soderbergh looked at the newspaper and exclaimed.

"It's indeed wonderful, like a general on the battlefield, constantly fighting. We ordinary people can only learn about his glorious 'battle achievements' through newspapers."

Robert Rodriguez said with a face full of envy.

"Humph! Don't represent me, I'm not an ordinary person, I'm also fighting."

Quentin Tarantino said, pursing his lips.

"Compared to Link taking on the seven major film companies and Wall Street capital, our battles are too small, without suspense or drama, so let's not talk about them."

Robert said with a smile.

Quentin moved the corners of his mouth, wanting to refute, but found that he couldn't refute.

This guy Link is too good at making trouble.

Since his debut in '92, he has been making trouble non-stop, never resting for a moment. This kind of person shouldn't be placed in the entertainment industry, he should be sent to join the army and fight in the Gulf War.

"Humph! I think his behavior of challenging entertainment capital is more like Don Quixote fighting windmills. I bet you, he will also be knocked to the ground by the windmills like Don Quixote."

Quentin said.

"I don't think so. Even if the capital behind the seven major film companies is very strong, Link's side is not weak. He has billions of dollars, and the films released by Guess Pictures are also very competitive. Link may not lose this battle."

"Let's make a bet, whoever loses will treat everyone to drinks."

Steven Soderbergh said with a smile.

"Deal!"

Quentin and Robert bumped fists.

After drinking in the bar, the group agreed to go to the cinema to watch "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls."

After watching it, Quentin complained that the movie wasn't good. Besides being funny, there was no other content in the plot, and the movie's box office wouldn't be too high.

Robert objected, arguing that it was enough for a comedy to be funny. While watching, the audience often laughed non-stop, indicating that everyone liked the movie. In addition, Jim Carrey was famous and had good box office appeal, so the box office of "Ace Ventura 2" should be good.

At Steven's suggestion, the two bet again, and whoever lost would treat everyone to drinks.
