Chapter 841: Endorsement Invitation

After a while, Matthew found Amanda, Amanda was very interesting and introduced some famous people in the New York business district to him, including Twitter Zhiguo and his daughter, saying that the future first daughter is a little stronger, but her figure is really good, and if the majesty on her chest has not undergone surgery, it can be called the second natural peak he has seen outside of Alexandra Daddario.

Matthew was interested in her, but he stayed at the level of interest, and as long as he thought of some unspeakable horror, all thoughts about the first daughter would disappear.

Manpower is sometimes exhausted.

"Interested in her?" Amanda looked at the tall blonde woman with a majestic chest.

Matthew shook his head directly, "No." ”

Amanda smiled and whispered, "Her father is a hype master, if something happens to his daughter, it is estimated that it will become the topic of his hype in the next ten years." ”

"Rest assured. Matthew glanced at the father and daughter again, "I can't afford to mess with them." ”

The meaning of these words was only understood by himself, Amanda was puzzled at first, then shook her head, and did not continue the topic, Matthew had said a lot of strange things in the past.

She suddenly saw two interesting people, and quickly stretched out her finger and poked Matthew, and said, "Look, there's an old friend of yours over there." ”

Matthew followed Amanda's gaze and met Natalie Portman, who seemed to be chatting with an old Jewish man at film school, and both of them looked happy.

In addition, she was holding a man, who looked a little familiar.

Matthew thought back to meeting this man many years ago in The Mummy Crew, when he was just courting Rachel Weisz.

That man must be Darren Aronofsky.

It turns out that Natalie Portman and Darren Aronofsky have developed to this extent.

Then, Matthew remembered some information that Rachel Weisz gave him, Darren Aronofsky and Natalie Portman are both Jewish, which is an invisible advantage in Hollywood, and if Rachel Weisz doesn't do anything, maybe the two will really gain something at the Oscars.

Seeing Matthew staring at Natalie Portman, Amanda reminded, "This woman is not simple. ”

Matthew nodded slightly, "I know." ”

"There's a rumor in New York circles. Amanda gossiped, "It is said that Natalie Portman had an abortion when she was about nineteen years old when she was studying at Harvard. ”

"Really?" it was the first time Matthew had heard of such news.

Amanda shrugged, "Eighty percent of it is estimated to be fake." She whispered, "This woman has an average family background and an average appearance, but she acts like a winner in life everywhere, and naturally many people in New York look at her unpleasantly." ”

Matthew looked at Amanda in surprise, "When did you gossip like that?"

"It's simple. Amanda said blandly, "I don't like her, I don't like a woman who decorates herself like a saint." ”

Matthew looked at Natalie Portman again, as if sensing a gaze from behind the side, Natalie Portman suddenly turned her head to look, and then spotted Matthew, and nodded at him with a smile.

"I'll go over and say hi. ”

Since they've all met, it's too much to say without a few words, anyway, he and Natalie Portman have always had a good relationship on the surface.

While Natalie Portman and Darren Aronofsky were saying goodbye to the old man from film school, Matthew walked over and greeted him with a smile, "Hi, Nat." ”

"Good evening, Matthew. ”

Natalie Portman smiled back, then looked at Darren Aronofsky beside her, and just about to make an introduction, Matthew took the initiative to reach out to that side, "Hello, Director Aronofsky, we met a long time ago." ”

Darren Aronofsky, who has little contact with the commercial film industry, shook hands with Matthew and said politely, "It was many years ago. ”

Frankly speaking, he doesn't have any affection for this business star who only sells vulgarity.

But he's not stupid either, knowing he can't afford to mess with someone like Matthew Horner.

So, after a few pleasantries, Darren Aronofsky casually found a reason to see an acquaintance and walked to the other side.

Natalie Portman stayed, because Matthew still had value in her eyes.

"I heard that "Fast and Furious 5" started filming?" Natalie Portman deliberately brought up the topic, "Is the filming going well?"

Matthew nodded slightly, "It is estimated that the filming part will be completed in May." ”

Natalie Portman deliberately said in a joking tone, "Do you want to add more characters in the future? Why don't you keep one for me?"

How could Matthew agree to such a thing, and what is the use of Natalie Portman for commercial films? It's just a joke.

"I heard you're back in the independent film industry again?" Matthew muttered, "Is the new film finished?"

Natalie Portman smiled, "It's over." She glanced at Matthew and said generously, "This new film is called "Black Swan", directed by Darren, and premiered at this year's Venice Film Festival. ”

Matthew nodded, "I've heard about it. ”

"The goal of this new film is this year's awards season. Natalie Portman didn't need to hide it, because it was very clear from the beginning of the project, "I ask for your support at that time." ”

She vaguely heard about some of this year's Oscars, and "Bomb Disposal Unit", which won the best director and best picture, has Matthew's forces among the supporters behind it.

Although it is difficult to judge how big this force is, it does play a role.

Matthew made a rare false promise, "No problem, Nat." ”

Natalie Portman couldn't help but laugh, "Then I'll say thank you in advance." ”

In her opinion, the films starring and projected by Matthew have never been aimed at the Oscars, there is no competition between the two parties, and she and Matthew seem to have a good relationship.

"You're welcome. Matthew said with a smile.

Oscar, will "Black Swan" still make a difference at the Oscars? He can't be sure, but he and Rachel Weisz have prepared something very special for "Black Swan".

Rachel Weisz, in particular, has been burning with the flame of hatred.

After a few more conversations with Natalie Portman, Matthew took his leave and returned to Amanda, who was talking to a middle-aged man with glasses.

Seeing Matthew, Amanda showed a rather helpless smile, gestured to the middle-aged man to him, and said, "This science fiction writer has something to do with you, so I have to introduce him to you." ”

Matthew made eye contact with Amanda, and roughly understood that Amanda didn't know this so-called writer, probably because he saw Amanda just talking to him, and then came over.

"Hello. Matthew, who had always been very amiable in public, looked at a middle-aged man and asked, "What are you looking for me?"

The middle-aged man smiled embarrassedly, his face a little shy, "You...... Hello, Matthew. "He doesn't seem to be very good at verbalism," I ...... I am...... Your movie fans, have been ...... I've always liked the sci-fi movies you played. ”

Matthew smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, speak slowly." ”

Seeing Matthew's smile, the middle-aged man's expression gradually became clear, "I'm Andy Weir, the deputy director of the creative department of Warcraft at Blizzard Games. ”

Hearing this, Matthew was a little curious, what did the people from Blizzard do with him? Do you want to adapt "World of Warcraft", the game adaptation movie is a sinkhole in Hollywood!

He had heard of the name of "World of Warcraft", and he had downloaded the "Warcraft" movie from the Internet and watched it, but as a pure passer-by audience, he looked confused.

The middle-aged man named Andy Weir expressed more and more clearly, saying, "I wrote a book last year, serialized on the Internet, science fiction. ”

He took out a USB drive and handed it to Matthew, "This is a copy, I want to ......"

Speaking of this, Andy Weir scratched his head in embarrassment, as if he didn't know what to say.

Matthew took the USB drive and said with a smile, "Do you want me to see if there is a possibility of adapting the movie?"

"Yes, yes......" Andy Weir said with a little shyness, "can you take a look?"

Matthew put away the drive and said, "Yes." ”

Andy Weir hurriedly said, "I left my contact information on the USB drive. ”

Matthew nodded slightly, "I've seen it and I'll give you the news." ”

"Thank you. Andy Weir breathed a sigh of relief.

He has pitched his books to many Hollywood companies, and thanks to his status as a Blizzard executive, he has met many studio executives and producers, but few people are interested in him.

After all, it's just sci-fi serialized on the Internet, and it's not even physically published, so it's too difficult to get the attention of film companies.

It just so happened that he saw Matthew Horner today, and he also carried a copy of the first half of the series with him, and decided to try his luck.

It seems that luck is not bad.

Matthew didn't take the USB drive too seriously, chatted with Amanda for a while, and walked around the banquet hall again, during which he also ran into Elizabeth Holmes, who chatted with him for a few words and asked him directly if he was interested in investing in her company.

Among the billionaires in North America, Matthew's net worth is not ranked, but he is definitely the most famous.

"Mr. Horner, this is a rare opportunity. Elizabeth Holmes is very good at taking advantage of the situation, "Mr. Rupert Murdoch has decided to invest in my company. If you join, it's certainly a wise decision comparable to your investment in Apple and Marvel. ”

Matthew actually knows very well that now he has the qualifications to be a gold owner.

But he is a very conservative and cautious person in some ways, otherwise he would not have only two properties now.

"I don't have liquidity. Matthew spread his hands and said, very tactfully refused, "I have invested in a number of film projects, and the liquidity is very tight. ”

Elizabeth Holmes's tone changed suddenly, "Can you invite Mr. Horner to be the spokesperson for Theranos?"

Hearing this invitation, Matthew frowned without a trace, and then said, "Let's talk to my agency about this." ”
