Chapter 547 Spider-Man With Poor Wine
At the celebration banquet for the film "Tomb Raider", Zucker saw Toby Maguire, and Toby also saw Zucker.
Similarly, the guests around also noticed it.
The atmosphere at the scene was a bit weird for a moment.
"Huh, what are they?"
The question was a young man in very fancy clothes. Judging from his appearance, he was at most an eighteen-year-old boy.
At this moment, a middle-aged man whispered: "David, you are still young and have not entered the entertainment industry, so you don't know much about it. In recent times, Toby Maguire, who relies on the "Spider-Man" movie, has now had a very unpleasant relationship with Wald Pictures about the male lead of "Spider-Man 2", and it's been very unhappy. The entire industry is going crazy."
Upon hearing this, the young man sneered: "It turned out to be a problem of increasing pay. I thought it was a big deal? In my opinion, problems that can be solved with money are not a problem."
Middle-aged man: "..."
The boy asked with a smile again: "Maguire is the famous Spider-Man after all. Isn't it reasonable to ask for a higher pay?"
After a pause, he asked again, "By the way, how much does he offer?"
The middle-aged man was stunned and tentatively said: "Are you planning to make a movie with Maguire?"
"certainly!"
The boy blurted out confidently: "My father promised me that as soon as I graduated from college, I would immediately give me $200 million in funding. You know, I'm very interested in Hollywood."
The middle-aged man was speechless and filled with deep jealousy.
$200 million?
What does the father pay for his son to buy toys?
Tsk tsk tsk, the rich second generation is different!
The middle-aged man was jealous and had no choice but to let the young man in front of him be named David Ellison?!
The son of IT giant Larry Ellison, the dignified Prince of Oracle Company, certainly has the confidence.
David Ellison continued to sneer: "That guy Juke Wald is too. He is so rich. Well, he is richer than my father. He is so stingy. Isn't it just that the actors want to increase their pay? As for being so petty?"
"If I were the boss of Wald Pictures, Maguire's pay for "Spider-Man 2" would be $10 million, and I wouldn't hesitate at all."
"Juke Wald, a stingy guy!"
On the outside, the Prince of Oracle was so disdainful of Zhu Ke.
The middle-aged man curled his lips, "It is said that Maguire's offer was a 5% North American box office share of 12 million yuan, not a mere $10 million yuan."
David Ellison: "..."
He was autistic.
Although he is a rich second-generation who does not regard money as money, he also understands at this moment. Toby Maguire, the Lions, spoke up and regarded Wald Pictures as a soft persimmon.
As for Hollywood in 2001, the 20 million club members were all the treatments that only the top superstars enjoyed.
You Toby Maguire is a furious one?
With the role of "Spider-Man", how dare you openly fuck Wald Pictures' wool?
Who gives you the courage!
David Ellison said quietly: "This kind of actor will not last long~"
The middle-aged man immediately echoed: "That's right, the six major powerhouses in Hollywood have a very average sense of Maguire."
At this moment, Toby Maguire, who wanted to come forward to say hello to Juke at the first time, also felt the same vision on the spot.
The eyes that come from a note include contempt, envy, and worship...
Different.
At this moment, he gave up the idea of chatting.
Zhuke didn't intend to talk to him either, and ignored him directly.
A few hours later.
When the celebration banquet for Tomb Raider was about to end, Toby Maguire came to Juke just now. Moreover, because he was popular, he was persuaded to drink a lot tonight. His current state is dizzy.
"Mr. Wald, very... very happy... to see you again, I think you are also very happy to see me again, I am Peter Parker, Spider-Man!"
It can be seen that even though Toby Maguire drank a lot of alcohol, he was still in a state of high excitement.
Zhuke frowned and said in a plain tone: "Good evening Toby. If something happens, we will talk about it later. It will be over here."
Zhuke was a little unhappy.
You should know that Zhuke is discussing some important cooperation matters with Paramount CEO Ms. Shirley Lansing. He was so drunk that he was so immersed in the air. What is it?!
“Hey hey hey hey!”
"I said Mr. Wald, you are not interested enough."
"You said, how much money did I make for you when I starred in the "Spider-Man" movie? The global box office alone was $900 million, and DVD sales even broke the sales record of offline markets. You said, am I good?"
"Come on, come on, come on and have a drink with me first, okay, give me some face~"
Toby Maguire was talking nonstop.
When looking at Juke, his face turned completely cold: "You are drunk and it's time to go back and rest. Your agent, Juan Wiggins, is too irresponsible, why don't you take you back?"
The image of an artist is very important!
When the film "Spider-Man 2" is about to be launched, the image of the starring actor is particularly important, and there must not be a large-scale negative news, as this will affect the box office after the release of the movie.
On the eve of the release of the movie "Twilight 3", Christine Stewart, who plays the heroine of the film, has a lot of negative news.
If there was no production company to wipe her butt and control public opinion, the box office of the movie might have a great impact.
In the original time and space, Toby Maguire also made a lot of trouble. It was the production and distribution companies that worked hard to withstand the negative news.
Damn, I'm so letting myself go!
Almost all the male and female stars in Hollywood have this problem.
"Ms. Shirley, I'm sorry, I'll make you laugh." Zucker looked apologetically at the CEO of Paramount beside him.
Shirley Lansing smiled: "It's OK."
Zucker turned around and looked at Toby Maguire coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Johnarson, wait for Toby to go down and arrange a hotel for him."
“Yes, boss.”
Johnathan was a capable bodyguard around Zucker. As he said that, he was about to leave with Toby Maguire, but he pushed it away.
"I'm not drunk!"
"Mr. Wald, I'm just giving you a drink. Are you so unpretentious? Don't forget that I have made a lot of money for you. Also, when "Spider-Man 2" is launched, I'm asking you for more pay. Is there anything wrong with me?"
"It makes you so much money in Spider-Man 1, and it makes me more money in Spider-Man 2, which makes me more money."
"I would like to remind you that I am the Spider-Man Peter Parker recognized by everyone!"
Toby Maguire's wine is very bad, and he is a bad gambling man.
In 2007, he drank too much at the celebration banquet for Spider-Man 3. He had a very poor wine taste and also fought with director Sam Remy because of a glass of wine.
The media reporters at that time were very happy, after all, this was big news.
Chapter completed!
