Tidying up her haute couture suit and stepping on limited-edition leather shoes, Spike-Lee stepped onto the stage like an old-school aristocrat from England.

Matthew opened his mouth slightly, and instantly performed the unexpected expression that was most needed at this time.

"How could it be ......?"

"This is Spike Lee. ”

"Why is he here. ”

In the audience, there was also a voice of surprise.

Inside the house in Westwood, everyone was also stunned, they didn't expect that Spike Lee would appear on Matthew's talk show.

Brian scratched his head and muttered, "What is Oprah going to do?"

Daenerys was interested, "Matthew is going to face Spike Lee directly!"

"Why didn't I go to the scene!" Thompson hugged his swarthy face, "I'm in the live broadcast room, I must have knocked Spike Lee straight over!"

Spike Lee's appearance was unexpected, Oprah did not stop the discussion in the audience, what he wanted was this effect, and there was no surprise at all, why did Oprah's talk show maintain its absolute leading position.

She looked at Matthew and then at Spike Lee, the two in stark contrast.

Matthew Horner was dressed in a very ordinary casual outfit, no different from the young people in the audience, as if he was a very ordinary member of the general public.

Spike-Lee, on the other hand, doesn't look cheap in dark suits and shoes, but the rest, whether it's diamond-encrusted earrings and golden-yellow watches, or the frames that occasionally reflect the light above the eyes, tell everyone that I'm a nobleman, a man of wealth and status.

On stage, Spike Lee showed no interest in interacting with the audience, and walked straight to Oprah and Matthew.

Matthew was surprised at first, but the expression on his face gradually returned to normal, and he glanced at Oprah, who just smiled at him but didn't say anything.

She won't explain, and she doesn't need to explain.

Because this is Oprah's talk show, this is her show.

Oprah's face remained unchanged, her gaze pulled away from Spike-Lee, and she glanced at Matthew again, who was noticeably smarter than Spike-Lee in terms of clothing alone.

Maybe this great director is too far away from the first-line audience.

Oprah suddenly thought of Spike Lee's directing style and doing things, and it seemed that he had never understood what the front-line audience needed.

Compared with him, the more popular Matthew Horner is more likable in terms of image and past personality alone.

If Spike Lee can't put Matthew Horner's suspicion of racism to the letter, he's probably in trouble today.

Oprah had seen some of the images provided by Helen Herman before and knew that Matthew's side was not unprepared.

But Matthew will not be stupid enough to show Oprah his hole cards in advance, although Oprah is recognized as black-skinned and white-hearted, but in business, who can trust anyone?

Watching Spike Lee approach step by step, Matthew gently touched his pants pocket, which contained two portable hard drives and two USB flash drives, which were his killer features today.

Helen Herman had communicated with Oprah before, and Oprah also agreed to let the program production staff play the video materials he provided live for the sake of the show.

Matthew knows very well what Oprah wants, no matter who wins today, in fact, Oprah is the winner, and hanging in the air is the most detrimental to the show.

"Sit, Director Lee. Oprah motioned to get off the couch across from Matthew, waited for Spike Lee to sit down, and said, "You two, you don't need me to introduce you again, do you?"

Matthew nodded slightly at Spike-Lee, "Hello, Director Lee." ”

Spike-Lee glanced at him obliquely, but didn't respond.

Matthew smiled, unimpressed, and seemed very polite and generous.

Gilberto Silva's first impression of Spike Lee was not good, feeling that the people on the opposite stage were arrogant, although they were both black, but seeing each other's clothes, he subconsciously thought that they were not the same kind of people.

"Oprah really has a hand. ”

Inside the mansion, Will Smith looked at the TV screen and said, "I actually created such a show." ”

Jada Smith was a little excited, "Look, Will. You're too cautious, look at how Spike brought Matthew Horner into disrepute. ”

Behind the stage, Helen Herman found the production assistant who had given her the news, and whispered a few words while no one was around.

"Don't worry. "I promise to keep an eye on it, and there will be no accidents." ”

Helen Herman nodded slightly, having done everything she could, now it's time to see Matthew play on stage.

On stage, without waiting for Oprah to speak, Spike Lee said directly, "Do you think you can fool everyone with your quibbles?

He spoke so fast that he didn't give Matthew a chance to argue, "Do you dare to swear to God that you don't discriminate against black people?"

"Yes. Matthew said seriously, "If you can, we'll go to church together after the show." ”

Speaking of this, he pointed to the audience, "If you are interested, you can testify." ”

Spike-Lee didn't seem to expect Matthew to hesitate at all.

"You're not showing the respect you deserve to black people and black characters. Spike-Lee, who has been a fuss for more than a decade and has a philosophy that he believes to be the truth, stared at Matthew and asked, "Have you ever played with a black actor since you entered Hollywood? Have you worked with a black director and producer? Do you have any black friends?"

He raised his voice and answered directly for Matthew, "No!"

Matthew spread his hands and said innocently, "What does this mean?"

Spike-Lee raised his hand and pointed to him, "It means you're a white supremacist, you have a lot of vile and dirty thoughts in your heart, and you are suspected of racism!"

Matthew turned his head to look at Oprah, who had automatically become invisible since Spike Lee asked, Oprah's face was normal, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with what Spike Lee said.

Is that what a lot of black people think? There is also a market for this bizarre theory......

Suddenly, Matthew thought of Spike Lee's accusations against Eastwood and "Flags of the Fathers," which no one refuted but Eastwood himself, and the black actor of Star Wars 7 who took it for granted that the main characters were not black......

Then he understood that a lot of what he didn't think was a problem in the eyes of blacks and even a lot of whites who supported blacks.

He thought of what Amanda had told him recently, that the words race and diversity were now often used as a trump card for a handful of people with ulterior motives, and as long as they didn't get their purpose, they would take it out and make trouble with it.

In the face of this increasingly widespread situation, some people can only bow their heads, some people are disgusted, some people dare to be angry and dare not speak, but few people jump out directly to refute it.

Matthew looked at Spike Lee again, and if Hollywood was the epicenter of the snoopy movement, Spike Lee was definitely the centerpiece of the center.

Spike Lee is still accusing him, and all sorts of accusations of racism are pouring out Matthew at any moment.

Helen Herman looked at the situation on the stage, somewhat worried, no one here knows better than her, Matthew is not a good person by any standard, and will never just endure and not fight back, but all of Spike Lee's crooked reasoning is based on his skin color, and if he fights back, once he is not well controlled, he may really become a racist.

Just like in the past, Spike-Lee knows that what he says is excessive, and this set of theories is also very strange, but in Hollywood and even American society, many people and most mainstream media buy it, and he has been troubled by skin color for more than ten years, and he has long summed up a set of effective experience.

Moreover, he waited for Matthew Horner to refute them, these theories are all fallacies, but if they refute, it is easy to fall into the trap of language.

Matthew was relaxed on the surface, but he actually sensed that Spike Lee's words could not be refuted casually, especially if he didn't work with black people and didn't have black friends, and his rebuttal could easily give the impression that Spike Lee's words were genuine......

This Spike-Lee looks very arrogant, and seems to dare to air every day with his complexion, but in fact he is waiting to trap him.

In today's social situation, if you don't like black people and don't deal with black people, you may be suspected of racial discrimination.

Other circles may be better, but the situation in Hollywood is becoming more and more obvious.

Matthew knew he couldn't go against the whole environment, after all, he still had to mix in Hollywood.

"Director Lee!" Matthew interrupted Spike Lee, "I worked with Kelly Hu in "The Scorpion King", and I'm still friends, she's Chinese, and when I was filming "Dawn of the Dead", the heroine I worked with was Jessica Alba, we fell in love with the play, and we had a brief relationship, and Jesse is a Latino ......."

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and anyone who knew Matthew even the slightest knew that he was telling the truth.

"That's right. In front of the TV, Brian exclaimed, "Spike-Lee is a slur!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Matthew has also been in a relationship with Adriana Lima, who is Brazilian," Thompson reminded. ”

Spike Lee glanced at the chattering audience, cursed a bunch of idiots, and continued, "Please note that when I say discrimination, I'm talking about blacks, not anyone else!"

He retracted his gaze, stared at Matthew, and said what he had been prepared for a long time, "It's a fact that you teamed up with Keira Knightley to pressure the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" to replace Naomi Harris with Eva Green? You supported white actor Alexandra Daddario to squeeze out Paula Patton and get the supporting actress in "I Am Legend", right? Francis Lawrence, who supports black actors, lost the director of "I Am Legend" because of this, didn't I make it up?"

Hearing this question, Matthew was silent.

At this point, it's useless to talk too much, so it's better to have some heavy weight.
