In Chicago, in the studio belonging to Harper Productions, Helen Herman walked through the corridor, met Oprah who went to the dressing room to make up, greeted him calmly, and talked to Oprah with a smile, and then walked unhurriedly to Matthew's dressing room and knocked on the door gently.

"Please come in. ”

Matthew's voice was heard inside, and Helen Herman pushed the door open and walked in.

Matthew had finished putting on his makeup and waved his hand to the makeup artist and assistant, who walked out of the makeup room one after another.

Helen Herman closed the door with her backhand and said to Matthew, "Bad news for you." ”

Matthew turned to look at Helen Herman, "Huh?"

"I got the news from a production assistant at Harper Productions. Helen Herman said quickly, "Spike Lee is in another dressing room right now, and he'll be on tonight's talk show." ”

"Spike Lee?" said Matthew, somewhat surprised, "to join me in the same show?"

Helen Herman nodded cautiously, "Join us on tonight's Oprah talk show." ”

Matthew slowly stood up from his chair, shook his head, and the surprise quickly disappeared, and said, "Oprah really dares to play." ”

To be honest, it was really unexpected.

"There's nothing she wouldn't dare. Helen Herman looked calm, "Whoever made her Oprah, even if you fight Spike Lee on the spot, she can hold it." ”

Matthew knows it's true, Oprah isn't your average celebrity.

Helen Herman added, "It looks like the finale of the night is your head-to-head with Spike Lee. She stared at Matthew with burning eyes, "This is a war you can't lose, and if you lose, you can only quit Hollywood in the next few years." ”

"Do you think we're going to lose?" Matthew never took seriously, "and we did so much preparation. ”

Helen Herman nodded, unable to retreat at this time, and said, "I can only be behind the scenes, and it's up to you." ”

Matthew exhaled, "That's fine, it'll be clearer face to face." ”

Helen Herman opened her pouch and handed the portable hard drive to Matthew, "This is used as a backup, just in case, the video will be better left at the critical moment." ”

In his hand, Matthew put it in the back pocket of his jeans.

Now that Oprah has brought Spike Lee over, it's better to be on the front side.

In fact, this incident has had a lot of negative effects on him, the most direct result is that Armani suspended negotiations with Helen Herman, and there was no clear information on when it would restart, and the Screen Actors Guild and the Producers Union have expressed concern about this matter, and it is not impossible to intervene in the investigation of the crew of "I Am Legend" and the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" in the future.

There is also the North American box office of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta", which is the most affected.

On Monday, the film's box office trend was normal, with nearly $11 million in a single day. By Tuesday, the media began to report widely, and the box office was significantly affected, with only $8.5 million on the day, and then on Wednesday and Thursday, all the way down, especially yesterday Thursday, the single-day box office even fell to a little over $6 million.

According to the feedback from Warner Bros. and Sky Dance Pictures, black audiences and some white viewers seem to have a certain resistance to the film.

This annoyed David Ellison and wanted to find someone to kill Spike Lee, and the investment was too important for him.

In another hallway of the studio, James Jackson had just walked out of the dressing room after telling Spike Lee.

In the dressing room, Spike Lee took off his glasses, put them to his lips and sighed twice, took out the glasses cloth, and slowly wiped the lenses, he wanted to polish his glasses to see if Matthew Horner was as uncomfortable as he was in front of the Four Seasons Hotel at the time.

This is both for the cause and for personal revenge.

Now that this turmoil has reached a certain scale, but it is not big enough, he wants to push for a bigger wave, so that Matthew Horner can completely convict him of racism, and then profit from it.

Spike Lee was actually surprised to receive Oprah's invitation to the talk show, and when he heard that Oprah was invited to participate in the same talk show as Matthew Horner, he decided to participate after careful consideration.

This is a talk show broadcast live to the whole United States, as long as Matthew Horner is killed on the show, he is a fighter for freedom and democracy, a role model for all black people in Hollywood, and will also be the biggest beneficiary of this turmoil, the old men of the academy don't like Matthew Horner in the first place, when Matthew Horner is accused of racism and is killed by him, presumably those old men will be impressed.

Hollywood, after all, is dominated by the left.

As for whether or not he can kill Matthew Horner, Spike Lee has always thought that it is not a problem.

In other aspects, he may not be capable, but when it comes to scolding people with racial issues, Hollywood thinks he is second, and no one dares to say that it is first.

You know, he has been focusing on racial issues for more than a decade and is the number one stirrupter in this area...... No, a top expert in this area.

After so many years in Hollywood, no one understands this aspect better than him.

Spike Lee knows that his directing level is actually like that, if he doesn't use some means, let alone a first-line director, he will not be able to keep his current position soon, after years of research and analysis of the changes in the Hollywood environment, he has come to a very interesting and effective conclusion - I am black and I am weak, I should be justified.

More than ten years ago, doing things with such a conclusion would definitely have broken his head in the circle, but now it is a sharp weapon to open the way, and it is invincible.

Spike-Lee sees one thing clearly, Hollywood will bow its head in the face of the abuse of political correctness, and some will be disgusted, but they dare not speak out.

In that case, why don't you use it? He is just playing hooligan by virtue of his skin color, and others discriminate against him if they have an opinion!

In today's social environment, Matthew Horner can't escape the suspicion of racial discrimination at least no matter how much he argues, after all, it is a fact that he strongly interfered with the crew and replaced two black actors with two white actors, and it is also known that Francis Lawrence left the crew of "I Am Legend" because of his support for black actors.

And Will Smith can also make a fuss, but unfortunately Jada Smith also has no head and distracts the attacking firepower.

Of course, he could also see that not only did he want to take advantage of this opportunity, but Will Smith's sense of smell also seemed to be acute.

He has already asked his agent James Jackson to contact Kevin Howayne, and he can join forces with Will Smith to continue to push this wave and achieve a win-win situation.

Although Will Smith has not responded clearly for the time being, he believes that after this talk show, Will Smith will definitely join forces with him.

Kill Matthew Horner and get him out of the circle.

What attracted Sofia Coppola to him? Is that place big?

Spike-Lee is still haunted by the events of that day, and he planned and contacted the center of the plan, and he will definitely not give up halfway.

Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, he slowly recalled the response of Matthew Horner's side these days, which can be described as overwhelming, and he caught Matthew Horner off guard.

It is estimated that this time to participate in the Oprah talk show, Matthew Horner just wants to use the influence and ratings of the show to excuse himself.

It's a pity that he's here, and it's useless for Matthew Horner to have any plans.

Thinking of this, Spike Lee smiled gracefully in the vanity mirror, feeling not very satisfied, and changed it again, he wanted to practice the winner's smile.

Soon, the winner's smile will come in handy.

As it gets darker, there is a long line at the main entrance of the studio, where the audience that Harper Productions has contacted specifically for the talk show is waiting to enter.

At the entrance, there are security gates, and several security personnel check the belongings of the spectators.

The 911 incident in New York completely changed the country, especially when it came to security.

Gilberto Silva is a typical African-American, with naturally curly black hair on his head, a dark face and thick lips that always contrast with his white teeth when he smiles.

But today, the young Gilberto Silva never smiled.

He finally got the opportunity to be a live audience this time, just to come and see if the Hollywood star he liked was really as described in the newspaper! If it was true, he would never ......

"What is this?"

At the security gate, Gilberto Silva was stopped by security personnel, who opened his bag, revealing a few eggs, and asked, "Why did you bring this with you?"

"Can't you bring eggs?" Gilberto Silva explained, scratching his head embarrassedly with a grim face, "It's just dinner time, and we've been lining up here for a long time, and we haven't eaten, and this is the dinner I prepared." ”

The security officer held out his finger and gently plucked an egg, making sure it was the egg, "Your dinner?"

Gilberto Silva nodded busily, "That's my dinner." ”

The security guard waved his hand, "Let's go inside." ”

Someone brought bread just now, and someone brought hot dogs, and it was normal to bring eggs, but he didn't think much about it, and this was not a plane security check.

Gilberto Silva picked up his bag and hurried forward, turning a corner before breathing a sigh of relief.

This is a gift he carefully prepared for the big stars who are suspected of discriminating against them.

If the big star he likes really discriminates against them, he will definitely leave him with an unforgettable memorial.

Many people came from behind, and there were hundreds of people in the audience, and Gilberto Silva was among the others, and he passed the second security check and entered the live broadcast hall, perhaps because he was black, and he was arranged by the staff to sit in the first row closest to the stage.
