Los Angeles, the heart of downtown sports, is a slightly old basketball arena that can accommodate thousands of spectators.

Today, the media and spectators converge here, the rebounds at both ends of the basketball court have long been removed, and a ring is placed in the center.

A heavyweight boxing match is about to take place.

Before the game, there were heated reports and discussions in countless media, among which there were very few sports media, and the vast majority of them were entertainment media.

The people who really pay attention to this boxing match are not sports fans or boxing fans, but movie fans.

That's right, the players in this match are Uwe Ball and Charles Eric.

In the past ten days, with the support of the huge entertainment platform of Relativity Entertainment, the battle between Uwe Bauer and Charles Eric has quickly evolved from a private battle to a war of the century.

Driven by Relativity Entertainment, for the first time in history, the director angrily scolded the name of the film critics' boxing match, which also sounded.

Even The Hollywood Reporter titled it "Angry Brother Bao".

Even "Dungeon Siege" has become one of the most watched movies at present, and many people are looking forward to seeing how bad this film is, and it can lead to a big fight between directors and film critics.

In particular, Netflix has become a focal point for public discussion of the incident, and Uwe Ball and Charles Eric have used it as a base to constantly publish statements attacking each other.

After the two successfully made an appointment, they also carried out quick boxing training, and updated their training pictures on time every day, which ushered in countless people to besiege them.

As a result of this incident, Netflix has recently seen a surge in new user registrations, reaching its annual target of 12 million users two months ahead of schedule.

This has to be said to be a windfall.

Netflix sharing has also really entered the public eye, and at the same time, Netflix video has also entered the public eye.

Uwe Ball and Charles Eric have both become loyal Netflix users, and both have posted training photos and uploaded videos of their own, which have received an astonishing number of views.

Movies are mass entertainment, and in this era of national entertainment, which has gradually kicked off, such a joyful event has attracted a lot of attention.

The TV and webcast rights were all sold, and while the price was low, it was better than nothing, but it also meant that more people would see the boxing match.

"Camera No. 3 adjusted! Shift 15 degrees to the left!"

On the floor below the stage, the live broadcast director with a headset shouted into the microphone: "Unit 4 back down, two feet back! OK, that's it!"

The referee in a bow tie entered early, entered the ring to take a closer look, and returned to the lounge.

With less than an hour to go before the game started, the ticket gate was activated at the door, and spectators walked in one after another.

Todd McCarthy, a full-time film critic from The Hollywood Reporter, wore a hat and mingled with the fans and also entered the stadium.

Finding a seat and sitting down, Todd McCarthy looked into the middle of the stadium, where huge posters of Uwe Ball and Charles Eric hung above, with their respective professions marked below them - directors and film critics!

Todd McCarthy shook his head, a professional film critic actually worked with the director, no matter how he won or lost, he disgraced the face of the professional film critic industry!

A truly outstanding film critic is not able to beat the director all over the ground to find his teeth, but to be able to ridicule the director and the producer without using a single dirty word!

Just when Todd McCarthy was angry, someone on the opposite side suddenly pulled up a huge banner with a line of big words on it - Brother Bao Support Group!

There are also various posters and slogans next to it.

"Brother Bao will win!"

"Kudos to Brother Bao!"

"Brother Bao is tonight's hero!"

Seeing this, Todd McCarthy was a little stunned, what's wrong? Why do movie fans stand on the opposite side of the film critics?

He has watched the first film directed by Uwe Bauer, and he has also specifically asked people who participated in the preview screening of "Dungeon Siege", this is a super bad movie, and Uwe Bauer is a super bad director!

Does such a bad director have someone to support?

Sure enough, it's no wonder that the film critic industry is weakening, and this audience can't!

Varian picked up a "Brother Bao" cheering sign at this time and held it high, his friend Jean had to work overtime today, and he couldn't catch up at all, so he had to come by himself.

Fortunately, he is not alone, and there are fans in the stadium who support Brother Bao like him.

Everyone knows that it was the film critics who first provoked and made personal attacks, not the director Brother Bao.

I don't know what others think, but in the eyes of Varian and Jean, Brother Bao is also a victim.

Of course, Brother Bao is a real man, and after being attacked with vicious language, he chose to fight back in the most direct way.

With forty minutes to go, the stadium was packed with fans and entertainment reporters.

With such a unique competition, the entertainment media will certainly not miss the opportunity to report it.

Although many entertainment reporters can guess that two people who are not very famous make such a lively move, there is a powerful group behind them, but they don't care.

Entertainment can not only entertain yourself, but also entertain the public, and entertain money.

If you count them in one fell swoop, why not.

At the side door of the stadium, Ronan and his two friends entered a passageway, and then went directly to the second floor, where there was a large window to see everything that was happening in the arena.

"Uwe Bauer has no age advantage. Will Smith was worried: "It's not going to lose, is it?"

Ronan has a lot of confidence in Uwe Ball: "Uwe has been boxing for 20 years, and he is one of the best amateurs. ”

Tom Cruise said: "That film critic is going to be out of luck. ”

Will Smith laughed: "It's all a sensation, a lot of people around me are talking about it, and the movie that started this brawl." Ronan, you're going to be small again. ”

Tom Cruise wasn't polite to Ronan at all: "After the movie comes out, you have to have a treat. ”

"No problem. Ronan looked particularly generous: "Whatever you want to eat, what you want to drink, you just want to eat the bear's paw of a wild polar bear, there is no problem." ”

Will Smith said, "Whatever. He pulled back the topic that had been sidelined: "Uwe Bauer really made a name for himself this time, and your plan to build him into a brand was successful. ”

Ronan said with a smile: "It's actually rare to find a director like Uwe who always maintains self-confidence and never doubts himself." ”

To be honest, Uwe Ball is not a non-harder, but his talent and ability are really limited.

Tom Cruise asked, "Will you continue to work with him?"

Ronan said honestly: "As long as Dungeon Siege is successful, there is no reason not to cooperate, is there?"

Tom Chris nodded slightly: "Indeed, you have invested a lot of resources in him. ”

Will Smith also has a general understanding that in just ten days, this game has almost caused a sensation in the United States, and the director and film critics are directly involved in the film criticism on the one hand, and more importantly, Relativity Entertainment has invested a lot of money and resources behind it.

When such a group company is determined to push something forward, the energy that can burst out is quite amazing.

In particular, this event is a happy event that the public likes to see.

"Uwe, come on!"

In the locker room, David Villa was cheering Uwe Bauer on: "Beat that bastard who insulted our movie!"

Uwe Bauer had just put on his fist gloves with the help of his assistant, rubbed his face all over his face, and said with a cruel smile: "When "House of the Dead" was released, I wanted to beat up these film critics! Now, I can finally do it! I won't be soft!"

He shook his fist vigorously: "It's so cool!"

Uwe Bauer is scrappy and writes review articles, and he is no match for film critics combined.

Do it, he likes it the most!

"It's time to play!" someone outside reminded.

David Villa personally put a black cloak on Uwe Ball, and Ubao walked out of the dressing room and swaggered forward.

The face lost in the movie review, he will use his fists to get it back!

On the other side, Charles Eric sat nervously and took a deep breath, and Madias, who accompanied him, said, "Relax! Yes, relax!"

Madias encouraged him: "Charles, Uwe Ball is nearly ten years older than you, you have an advantage in age and physical strength, don't worry, go boldly, put him down! Beat him out of Hollywood! Out of the film industry!"

After pouring this delicious chicken soup, Charles Eric's confidence instantly increased, could he not beat an old man who was nearly forty years old?

Someone from outside came to inform him, and Matthias motioned for Charles Eric's interim coach to put a cloak on him and accompany him out of the dressing room and down the aisle towards the stadium.

Charles Eric suddenly asked, "I can't be wrong with my share of the revenue from this game, right?"

As if comforting the death row inmates on the execution ground, Madias said: "Two-thirds of the proceeds from the game go to the operator, and the other third you and Uwe Bauer each get half." ”

Charles Eric instantly became more combative: "I'm going to beat that German out of Hollywood!"

Madias was a step behind and said, "Play as hard, you can do it!"

After pouring the last bowl of chicken soup, Madias quietly drew a cross on his chest: May God bless this poor film critic!

Due to temporary overtime, Jean was forced to give up going to the scene to watch the long-awaited match, and could only stay in the company to work, fortunately, there was not too much work, and when the overtime ended and turned on the live broadcast of Netflix video, the two fighters had just stood in the ring.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the angry Brother Bao boxing match is about to begin......"

A colleague's computer was equipped with a stereo, and when he turned it on, he heard the voice of the commentator hired by Netflix Video: "This is a historic boxing match! It is the first time in the history of the United States and since the birth of the film that a director and film critic have stood in the ring and resolved their disputes in the form ......of boxing."
