Beverly Hills was unusually quiet at night, and in a house on the south slope, Angelina Jolie lulled the children to sleep and went downstairs to the living room, where she found it empty, and Brad Pitt, who had been there before, did not know where she had gone.

Walking around the living room, she walked towards the corridor on the left, and saw that the door of the family bar was indeed open, and the faint sound of pouring wine could be heard.

Angelina Jolie remembered that Brad Pitt had been drinking frequently recently, so she took a light step and walked over slowly.

Coming to the door of the bar, she looked inside, and Brad Pitt was sitting with his back to the door, sitting in front of the south window and drinking, as if looking at the south side sulking?

What's going on?Angelina Jolie was puzzled at first, and then she figured it out, Brad Pitt has been mentioning Matthew Horner's name a lot these days.

Tonight, isn't Matthew Horner's new film "Special Forces: The Rise of the Cobra" premiering at the Chiefstone Theatre in the south?

Angelina Jolie couldn't help but shake her head slightly when she saw Brad Pitt drink a glass of whiskey, since the failure of "Cloud Atlas", Pete's alcoholism has become more and more serious, and if it continues like this, it will definitely endanger his body and even his future......

Thinking of the project "Cloud Atlas", she sighed in her heart, Brad Pitt used all means to snatch the project from Matthew Horner, and the result?

He's been poisoned by Natalie Portman!

Natalie Portman's slut deserves to be the most scheming woman in the circle.

Angelina Jolie is very skeptical that Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman already have more relationships than collaborators.

These two people think they're smart, is she stupid, is Matthew Horner stupid?

The phone rang suddenly, and Angelina Jolie didn't know what she was thinking, so she suddenly took a step back, hid next to the door of the bar, leaned against the wall, and heard Brad Pitt inside answer the phone.

"What? Cliff, we made it clear!" Brad Pitt's voice wasn't too loud, but it was enough for Angelina Jolie to hear clearly, "I'll take a loan from your bank, and then I'll pay it back after the box office of "Cloud Atlas" arrives! Yes, "Cloud Atlas" doesn't have a high box office, but don't forget, I still have "Alien Battlefield", if this film is a big hit, the profit will be enough to pay off all your loans!"

Angelina Jolie leaned against the wall and didn't say a word, although she was completely financially independent from Brad Pitt, it didn't mean that she didn't know about Brad Pitt's side of finances.

The production cost of the project was as high as $120 million, Brad Pitt invested most of the liquidity of Plan B and himself, and after James Aniston's bitch quit, Brad Pitt almost completely owned the shares of Plan B, and the money of Plan B was actually his money.

In order to raise funds, Brad Pitt also used the equity of Plan B as collateral to take out a loan from the bank, and the original plan was to repay the bank loan as soon as the box office of "Cloud Atlas" was divided......

Now, there is no need to think about repaying the loan, and it is a question of how much of the liquidity that Brad Pitt has invested himself.

Fortunately, he made it clear to Brad Pitt about financial independence at the beginning, otherwise he would have followed him into this big pit, and he wouldn't have lost all his property soon?

Angelina Jolie didn't think it before, but now it seems that Brad Pitt is too aggressive, too eager to restore his fame and status, and has invested in two first-line productions in succession.

A "Cloud Atlas" cost $120 million to produce, and a "Alien Battlefield" cost $250 million to produce.

That's a big step.

Although the latter has Disney Pictures co-investment, the budget of Plan B is also close to 200 million US dollars, and even if part of the foreign investment is settled, there is still more than 100 million US dollars mainly raised by Plan B and Brad Pitt personally.

Angelina Jolie doesn't know exactly how much money she borrowed, but she knows some things, such as the shares of Plan B have been mortgaged on the "Cloud Atlas" project, and when it is impossible to borrow from the assets of Plan B, Brad Pitt has raised part of the loan for the "Alien Battlefield" project in his personal name and fixed assets as collateral.

Angelina Jolie was surprised when she thought of this, "Alien Battlefield" was successful, it is good to say, everything can be on the right track, what if it fails?

That would be nothing less than a super hurricane-like disaster for Brad Pitt.

What's the worst-case scenario? Angelina Jolie suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, it was terrible.

The sound of phone calls in the bar stopped, and she reached out to glance at it, and her eyes widened as she saw Brad Pitt put down her phone, open a box of wine, and take out tin foil and a small plastic bag containing white powder......

As a former drug addict, Angelina Jolie is all too familiar with these.

It turns out that it's not just alcoholism, it's already drug addiction, why do you escape the reality of failure? But you snatched the project from Matthew Horner, and you didn't think that it might fail when you grabbed it?

Angelina Jolie took another look, and Brad Pitt's nose was already on the foil.

If you have someone in your family who is addicted to alcohol and drugs, what should the children do? Let them grow up in this environment?

Angelina Jolie never went in, just leaned against the wall, thought about it for a long time, and decided to wait for the release of "Alien Battlefield".

Maybe if this film is successful, it will change everything?

She turned around and walked slowly towards the living room, and after entering the living room, she subconsciously glanced south, although she couldn't see anything except the dark night sky, she knew that a bastard named Matthew Horner was doing a premiere at the Chief's Rock Theater in the Hollywood area.

As long as there were no surprises like a nuclear bomb attack, the premiere film would have been a success.

The little driver back then has become a big man in Hollywood, and even she doesn't dare to provoke easily.

The sun was shining as bright on Saturday as ever, and the summer in New York was just as clear.

On Sixth Avenue in Manhattan, Natalie Portman came out of a café and waved to a middle-aged man with a beard, "Goodbye, Darren, we'll get back in touch." ”

Seeing Darren Aronofsky smiling and waving at her, Natalie Portman got in the car, waved to Darren Aronofsky again, and said to the driver sent by the agency, "Back to Long Island." ”

Along the way, she always had a faint smile on her face, and it seemed that she had encountered something particularly happy.

As the car entered Long Island, Natalie Portman saw a poster of "Special Forces: Cobra Rise" on a huge billboard on the side of the road, and specifically instructed the driver, "Stop by the newsstand." ”

"Yes. The driver replied respectfully.

Natalie Portman looked out the car window and recalled this meeting with Darren Aronofsky.

Rachel Weisz clearly promised to introduce Darren Aronofsky to her at the premiere, but she always found all kinds of excuses to prevaricate later, this British woman, thinking that without her, she would not be able to contact Darren Aronofsky?

Natalie Portman was very satisfied with this appointment with Darren Aronofsky, and the test of Darren Aronofsky was even better than expected!

The corners of her mouth hooked up a smile, these men in Hollywood are not much different from Matthew Horner, and they are confused when they see women.

Rachel Weisz also swore that Darren Aronofsky loved her very much, and reveled in happiness to give birth to Darren Aronofsky, and the result?

She's certainly not that stupid, and wanting to get close to her, Darren Aronofsky has to come up with something useful.

The next step is to control the tempo, both to hang Darren Aronofsky and not to let him run, and even if he succeeds, it will have to wait until she is sure to get the Darren Aronofsky project.

Natalie Portman opened her briefcase and looked at it, the script of "Black Swan" was lying inside, which was given to her by Rachel Weisz before, and Rachel Weisz showed her this script, which was nothing more than wanting her to play a supporting actress and play for Rachel Weisz.

Playing for others, where is it more enjoyable to grab the protagonist directly?

Rachel Weisz found her, does it count as sending a heroine and a husband?

Natalie Portman's eyes are full of pride, when it comes to calculating people, how many of these actresses in the circle can compare to her?

The car stopped suddenly, Natalie Portman saw the newsstand, quickly pushed the door and got out of the car, bought a copy of the latest "New York Times", found the supplement directly after getting in the car, took out the entertainment section in it, and quickly browsed it.

What she wants to see is very prominent, right on the front page of the entertainment section!

With just one glance, the smugness in Natalie Portman's eyes disappeared without a trace, and the front page headline of the entertainment version reads in black and in broad vein: Matthew Horner's new film is a success again, and "Special Forces" premiered on Friday for $33.8 million!

In an instant, her emotions calmed down.

"Successful again?" whispered Natalie Portman, "another box office hit?" Matthew Horner, ah......

At this moment, she really regretted that if she didn't work with Brad Pitt, but kept her original intention to work with Matthew Horner, as for the way she is now?

She hit a wall in business one after another, but Matthew Horner succeeded again and again......
