Awards season, a special season full of inexplicable attraction for the vast majority of Hollywood stars, even business superstars like Will Smith are not immune.
"You mean ......"
As a white agent, Kevin Horvein didn't think so much about it before, but after all, he was a big-name agent from CAA, and when he heard Will Smith's words, he was immediately touched and "take this opportunity to take advantage of ......"
He clenched his fists, put them to his mouth and coughed, some words came out of his mouth, indeed more sensitive, paused for a moment, nodded and said, "Indeed, this will form a more favorable external condition for you during the awards season." ”
Will Smith opened the drawer of the coffee table, took out a piece of printer paper from it, and handed it to Kevin Howayne, "This is what I asked Jada to prepare to say, mainly to create momentum, and by the way, stepping on Matthew Horner can be regarded as a little response to him snatching the male lead of "I Am Legend". ”
Kevin Huo Wayne picked it up and looked at it, and nodded, "There are a few places where you should be cautious in your wording, do you have a pen? I'll help you change it." ”
Will Smith took the pen out of the drawer, handed it to Kevin Howayne, and asked, "What do you think?"
"If you do it well, it should be able to elicit a lot of responses. Kevin Horner said as he made changes, "Attack Matthew Horner as subtle as possible, before the matter is not determined, you must grasp the degree, you must not play in person, otherwise there is little room for turnaround." ”
"I understand. Will Smith nodded slightly, obviously thinking about it, "If things take a turn for the worse, I'll personally come forward to apologize, saying that I don't know, anyway, everyone knows about Jada...... Well, the mouth is a bit big. ”
Kevin Howie handed the printer paper to Will Smith, "Take a look. Then he responded to Will Smith's words, "That's a good idea, it's okay." ”
Will Smith took the printer paper and looked at it.
Kevin Howayne stood up and said goodbye, "I'm going to contact the media. ”
Almost at the same moment, a black mulatto with a bright bald head walked into a café in West Hollywood, asked for a latte, and opened the newspaper in his hand to read.
When he saw the entertainment version, the bald head suddenly smiled, and he knew the person on the front page of the entertainment version, a young actor who was once fired out of the crew by him, but the other party is now a big star.
Unfortunately, the big star has been in huge trouble lately, and a group of black actors, led by Spike Lee, are accusing him of alleged racism.
"You have a ...... today?"
Saying a word, the bald head unconsciously touched his chest, remembering the punch he was beaten on the set a few years ago, and it seems that he still has a faint pain.
On the set, only he Vin Diesel bullied people, where is the reason for others to bully him?
That punch, that Matthew Horner, he still remembers it vividly.
The waiter brought a latte, Vin Diesel took a sip and continued to read the newspaper.
"Matthew Horner's racism is unmistakable, and this newspaper has key evidence!"
Vin Diesel holds a tabloid newspaper in his hand, not a big newspaper like the Los Angeles Times, and the news is naturally as appealing as it is written.
"Is there really key evidence?"
Seeing this, Vin Diesel wondered how a person like him, who thinks he is the number one in the world and the whole universe revolves around Lao Tzu, can forget Matthew Horner and not want to see that bastard finished.
He then looked down and saw what the newspaper called evidence.
"Count the women Matthew Horner has dated and the women with whom he has had an affair, from Britney Spears to Charlize Theron, and from Jessica Alba to Adriana Lima, none of them are black women ......"
The newspaper also published photos of Britney, Scarlett Johansson, Rachel McAdams, Eva Green, Jessica Alba and Charlize Theron, all the actresses or models who have had scandals with Matthew Horner, except for Jessica Alba and Adriana Lima, who are a little dark-skinned.
"As a typical Hollywood-style playboy, Matthew Horner hasn't been in a relationship with a single black woman, isn't that racist or what?"
Seeing this, the coffee in Vin Diesel's mouth almost squirted, this tabloid is really working hard for hype, if this is also racial discrimination, how many people in the United States are not racist?
He shook his head, even though he was upset to see Matthew Horner, but he thought the tabloid was complete nonsense.
Vin Diesel closed the newspaper, called the waiter at the restaurant, and tipped, asking him to get a copy of The Hollywood Reporter.
Flipping to the entertainment version, I immediately saw a large half-length close-up of Spike Lee, and then looked at the relevant news content, it turned out that Spike Lee issued a public statement, calling on Hollywood to resist racial discrimination, calling on Hollywood's major production companies and producers not to give jobs to those suspected of racial discrimination, so that criminals suspected of racial discrimination will completely disappear from the circle.
It seems that public opinion is very unfavorable to Matthew Horner.
In recent days, Vin Diesel has read a lot of reports about Matthew Horner, Matthew Horner is like Tom Cruise in previous years, and is being attacked by quite a lot of people from the media to the industry, but his position and resources are not as good as Tom Cruise, who has been deeply rooted in the circle for more than 20 years, and he has also committed a more serious problem, and may become the second Mel Gibson.
It must be interesting if that bastard has no scenes to film, right? If you don't step on it a few times at this time, when will you have to wait?
Vin Diesel is also a big star, and his words can affect a lot of people and a lot of media.
So, he left the café and immediately contacted a media reporter he knew to give his opinion on Matthew Horner's alleged racism.
Another day passed, and instead of slowing down, the surging tide of public opinion blew louder and louder, and Spike Lee issued two public statements in quick succession, aiming directly at Matthew.
Some black extras who came out of nowhere also kept attacking Matthew in the media, and if anyone wanted to investigate, these people did stay in the crew starring Matthew.
An invisible net of planned and premeditated plans has covered Matthew, and someone has even come up to help Spike Lee tighten the net.
Matthew has come all the way and climbed to the position of a Hollywood A-list star, I don't know how many competitors' heads have stepped on to get to the top, and I don't know how many opportunities have been snatched by tangible and invisible.
When he was going well, when everyone cheered and applauded him, some people would only look at him with envy and jealousy, but when he was about to turn into a reservoir dog, some of them would definitely jump out in a hurry.
Beating the reservoir dogs is not only something Matthew likes, but the whole world likes.
Jada Smith recorded a video from her mansion that appeared on the Internet, in which she said, "At the Oscars, you always see black presenters and performers, but very few winners, don't black people act, can't make movies? We are a neglected group, and our artistic achievements are rarely recognized." And even today, there are still people who discriminate against black people, use their influence to interfere with the crew, and remove black actors, which is so shameful! I agree with Director Spike Lee, that kind of person should get out of Hollywood. ”
On the same day, a video of the interview with the angry Vin Diesel also appeared on the Internet.
"Matthew Horner was also on the crew of "Fast and Furious" back then, and I had a conflict with him, because one day I was sleeping in the car and heard someone calling outside to scold '', I immediately got out of the car, and after finding out that it was Matthew Horner, I asked him to apologize immediately, but Matthew Horner refused, and scolded the second sentence, I quarreled with him, almost started, and finally the crew fired Matthew Horner......"
The net tightened more and more, and it seemed that it could completely tie up Matthew at any moment.
Of course, Hollywood has deep negotiations with the media circle, especially the entertainment media, and the two circles are closely connected, and neither can do without the other.
A senior entertainment media practitioner like Yelena Boyard can easily see through the truth of many things in Hollywood, and many people who work hard in Hollywood will also see the essence of it through the chaos of entertainment media.
"It's clear that Matthew Horner has offended a black community. ”
In the post-production studio of Disney Studios, Jerry Bruckheimer said to Gore Verbinsky, "To be exact, Matthew guy doesn't know how to mess with Spike Lee's-stirring stick, and Spike Lee is ready to give him a big embarrassment in the past." ”
Gore Wibinski was a little worried, "if Matthew is really racist......"
Jerry Bruckheimer asked, "Have you worked with Matthew for so long and seen him discriminate against blacks?"
"Nope. Gore Verbinsky thought back and confirmed, "No." Before this came out, I had never heard of any rumors about it. ”
He was still a little worried, "Until now, Matthew's side ......"
There was a knock on the door, and a staff member pushed the door open and said, "Helen Herman is here, in the break room." ”
Jerry Bruckheimer nodded and said to Gore Verbinski, "Let's go meet Helen and see what she has to say." ”
Half an hour later, Helen Herman walked out of the gates of Disney Studios, walked through Nan Bo Great Street, and entered the Walt Disney headquarters opposite, first to the floor of the office of Disney Studios, the producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean", and then to meet Robert Iger in advance.
Now Matthew has several big-budget films with an investment of more than $100 million, and if the scandal is confirmed, he is not the only one who will lose a lot.
