Chapter 941: Cherish and Grasp

"Who is the most profitable person in North America?"

On the cover of the latest issue of Forbes magazine, there is such an eye-catching headline, and under this eye-catching headline, there is an even more eye-catching headshot.

Matthew was featured on the cover of this issue of Forbes magazine.

The magazine highlighted the cover character on the title page and wrote, "Who is the most profitable person in North America?" There are many answers to this question, and most people may answer names like Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Steve Jobs, or Warren Buffett, but in April and May, the answer belongs only to Matthew Horner!"

"The Hunger Games", invested by Matthew Horner, has a total box office of $380.61 million in North America for one month, and the global box office is close to $600 million. ”

At the beginning of May, Matthew Horner's 40% investment in "The Avengers" was released, the film created a series of North American box office records, only three weeks after its release, the North American box office has exceeded $450 million, and the global box office has reached $1 billion. ”

"A number of Wall Street institutions predict that Matthew Horner's actual profit may exceed $300 million by investing in these two films!"

It's good that the film gets a high box office and high income, but it also creates a lot of trouble.

"We don't have to worry about the Avengers, there are Disney and Marvel Studios, we just need to keep an eye on the finances, and we don't have to get too involved in other aspects. ”

In the office of the Angel Agency, Helen Herman reminded Matthew, "On the side of "The Hunger Games", there is already a string of troubles to deal with quickly, otherwise it will affect the filming of the second part. ”

Matthew nodded slightly.

Helen Herman elaborated, "I was in charge of the new actors, but the directors and the actors needed to negotiate a raise, and Bella Anderson needed to deal with it. ”

"Bella is negotiating with them. Matthew said.

"The Hunger Games" was a big hit, and it was inevitable that director Patty Jenkins and actress Jennifer Lawrence would ask for a raise.

Helen Herman reminded again, "Susan Collins, too, should be on the lookout. ”

Matthew thought for a moment, "It's better for you to talk to Susan Collins." ”

Probably encouraged by her agent or someone else, Susan Collins has been popping up to say some nonsense lately.

This is all caused by the huge profits generated by the movie.

In the face of such a huge amount of income, even if the two parties signed a one-time buyout agreement for the copyright, Susan Collins and the people around her will inevitably be jealous.

This is tens of millions of money, and the other party will not be obedient like a little brother just because he is the one who has made this series popular, without saying anything or complaining.

Not to mention Susan Collins, people like Nina Dubrev, Lily Collins and Jennifer Lawrence should be fighting for their gains in the sequel, and they won't give up just because they have a lot of relationship with Matthew.

The box office of the movie is very disturbing, and there are also a lot of troublesome things after the box office hit.

And movies are the product of teamwork, not one person can do it, in a circle like Hollywood, where everyone is for me, it is even more impossible for others to be stupid and just work without taking money.

No matter which film investor or producer, a part of the income must be shared with the main creative team.

Matthew left the angel agency and went to Disney Studios to see, the "Martian" crew is almost ready, and will charter a flight to Queensland, Australia in late May, and director Ridley Scott has taken the lead in rushing over.

Subsequently, he went to another crew, and the behind-the-scenes team of the "Fast and Furious 6" crew also regrouped in the Disney studio, and preparations for this film also began, because of Matthew's schedule, filming would not start until the filming of "The Martian" was completed.

This time, the racing family will be racing in London, England.

Matthew had a special chat with Justin Lin, the team has already filmed the third "Fast and Furious", and everything is familiar with the road, basically no difficulties.

The biggest problem faced by the crew was how to get the London City Hall.

Although the London side agreed to the crew to shoot on the streets, the filming time of the crew had to follow the arrangement of the city hall.

Filming on location in such a cosmopolitan city has never been easy.

In addition, Matthew also ...... with Guo Da No, Jason Statham meets up, the British star with a beautiful face who is assisting the crew in recruiting a powerful team of villains.

Before leaving, Matthew also confessed to Justin Lin and screenwriter Chris Morgan, asking them to introduce Jason Statham's little sister in the film appropriately.

It doesn't take much, just a few shots, so that the audience knows in advance that behind the villain of the sixth part, there is an unusually strong sister.

And then at the end of the film, directly make an easter egg similar to a Marvel superhero movie, so that the character of Charlize Theron will make a grand debut.

It wasn't until the sun turned to the sea that Matthew left the Disney studios and was ready to ride home.

As soon as the car left Burbank, he received a call from Taylor Swift.

"Hi Matthew. Taylor Swift's voice on the other end of the phone sounded tired, "I'm having a concert in San Francisco this weekend, can you come and cheer me on?"

Matthew thought about his itinerary, shook his head and said, "I have arrangements for this weekend." ”

The night before, he called Margot Robbie to go to the shooting club to shoot this weekend, and recently on Margot Robbie's side, almost no progress has been made, and shooting can be said to be a rare common hobby between the two.

Between the pursuit of novelty and excitement and the reminiscence of the old taste of the past, Matthew chose the former in accordance with the man's nature.

Taylor Swift's voice was full of disappointment, "I thought you could come." ”

Since the last time they met, she hasn't mentioned the so-called boyfriend and girlfriend who seemed to be very serious before, but in fact it was more like a joke.

"Aren't you going to go on with the concert?" said Matthew with a smile, "There's always a chance in the future." ”

Taylor Swift's voice rang out on the phone again, "yes, too." Do you have time for next weekend?" she reminded her, "remember what I told you the last time we met? I'm going to Los Angeles next weekend for a few days off to gather friends for a celebration party, will you come?"

Hearing this, Matthew's eyes flashed with Taylor Swift's best friend group, like Selena Gomez, Carly Kraus, Carla Delevei, Bobbi Delevei, Martha Hunter and Lily Donaldson.

"Alright!" Matthew responded.

He went to this party to celebrate the success of the Taylor Swift concert, and definitely not for the sake of these women.

How could a serious person like him think about those things that were not serious?

I remember when I was in Rio de Janeiro, it was a bunch of supermodels who drank too much and got the urge to do it......

Alcohol is a great medicine!

"We've made up our minds!" Taylor Swift finally said, "I'll send you the time and location of the party on your phone later, and you must come then, and you can't go back!"

Matthew swore an oath, "For the sake of credibility, I will be there." ”

Not long after the two hung up, a text message came, and Matthew clicked on it to take a look, and he should have time by then.

Even if you don't have time, you can still find time.

Putting away the phone, Matthew remembered another thing, will Taylor Swift's girlfriend group be even bigger in the future?

After the last meeting, he specifically checked, and compared to other stars with similar status in the music industry, Taylor Swift is more popular and has more attention from the media and the public.

This at least shows that Taylor Swift has a very strong promotional and hype ability when the songs released can ensure the quality, and by fighting with Katie Perry and cheering for the girlfriend group, it is one of the most powerful means of publicity.

Those who have tasted the sweetness will definitely want more sweetness, and Taylor Swift will inevitably expand her group of girlfriends.

Judging from the members of Taylor Swift's current girlfriend group, except for the role of Silly Face Na, who is similar to the small hair, all the others have extremely similar standards.

Basically, they are tall and beautiful new generation models.

According to Taylor Swift, the last few people we met seemed to be very promising to become Victoria's Secret angel models in the next two or three years.

It can be seen that Taylor Swift is still quite good at picking girlfriends.

Perhaps, there will be more young and beautiful female models around Taylor Swift in the future.

Matthew nodded slightly, it seems that he will have to attend more parties or parties organized by Taylor Swift in the future.

The only pity is that the popular female singer is too busy and flies around all day long, and it is estimated that the number of similar events will not be too frequent, otherwise......

β€œOne. Night. In. Rio!" Matthew ran out of tune to the sky, "I left a lot of ......"

The night in Rio de Janeiro, although it was very tiring and made him rarely have weak legs, it was really nostalgic.

How many such moments can there be in life? Each one should be grasped and cherished.

The next morning, Matthew received an official invitation signed by Taylor Swift himself, and he was to be admitted with the invitation.

Matthew read the invitation carefully, and was in a pretty good mood, and before he could put it away, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

"Come in. ”

As his voice fell, an assistant walked in and said, "Mr. Jonathan Nolan is coming to visit. ”
