After a seemingly unpleasant meeting, Tobey Maguire said he would go back and think about it before deciding, and Sid readily agreed.

As he and his manager, Eric, walked to the parking lot, Tobey Maguire couldn't help but ask, "Eric, what do you think?"

"Ell, I didn't expect Sid to speak so harshly. Eric smiled helplessly.

"Am I asking you this?" said Tobey Maguire, speechless.

"Well, what he said was hard to hear, but I think he got to the point. Eric shrugged, "'Musical' has really made a lot of young actors popular, and I think 'Spider-Man' will only be more successful." ”

"yes. Tobey Maguire nodded silently.

Moreover, Sid has just agreed to pay a fixed salary for three "Spider-Man" films at once, which is $12 million. Eric shrugged, "At least he's a generous boss." ”

"Well, I've decided. Tobey Maguire nodded.

Ali put down his phone and said to Sid in a relaxed tone: "They agreed, and Tobey Maguire agreed to sign a three-part packaging agreement. ”

His words made everyone in the casting room breathe a sigh of relief, and Sid showed a faint smile, it seems that the ruthless characters in history are not so difficult to bite.

"Then we don't have to cast anymore. Justin Lim looked at the actor's profile on the table.

Although Sid also admits that Tobey Maguire is the most suitable actor for this version of Spider-Man in terms of actor image and temperament style, this does not mean that Sid wants to be slaughtered by them.

So after the meeting, Sid immediately reviewed the other candidates, and at the same time, he deliberately let Ali secretly let out the news that Sid was auditioning for others.

Just one day later, Tobey Maguire sent Ali a consent contact through CAA.

"yes, it looks like it's not needed this time. Sid also looked at the young British actor on the profile, "It's a pity, I want to see what effect he will have when he plays Spider-Man." ”

"Huh? He's a completely different type of Tobey Maguire. Justin Lin asked curiously.

"That's why it's fun. Sid shrugged, and then he closed the information with his backhand, "Alright, now that the matter is done, we should also prepare for the next one." ”

Just as Sid was intensively preparing for various matters of "Spider-Man", Tobey Maguire also carried out physical and physical training with the help of fitness coaches and physical trainers according to the requirements of the crew after the contract.

And because of the time, this time, he only has more than a month, so the super long training time of seven or eight hours a day is definitely a hellish difficulty.

When the preparations for "Spider-Man" finally began to go smoothly, Xiao Bushi, who won the presidential election at the end of last year, finally took over the presidency from former President Clinton on January 20.

He is also the second president to be elected in his father's footsteps, following John Quincy Adams, the sixth president of the United States of America.

When Clinton took over North America from Bushi Lao during his eight years in office, the country had just experienced the Gulf War and its debt had skyrocketed.

After Clinton assumed the presidency in January '93, he took "building a high wall, accumulating grain, and slowing down the king" as a program of action to grasp reform and promote production. China has boldly pursued a fiscal policy centered on increasing the potential for economic growth, while at the same time reducing unproductive spending and reducing the fiscal deficit.

This series of bold economic plans has achieved remarkable results.

Since 1993, the North American economy has entered a period of growth that has lasted for more than nine years. The 1998 North American federal budget ran a surplus for the first time since 1956-57.

By 2000, the fiscal surplus had reached $237 billion.

At the beginning of this year, in Clinton's last State of the Union address, he couldn't help but praise himself: "20 million new jobs, the fastest economic growth rate in more than 30 years, the lowest unemployment rate in 30 years, and the first consecutive fiscal surplus in 42 years." ”

This is the most prosperous time in the United States of America.

And more importantly, in the hands of Clinton, the economy of North America has been thriving, especially under his rule, the new economy represented by Internet technology has been preemptively developed in North America, especially in Silicon Valley, ahead of the world.

It can be said that what Clinton left to his successor, Xiao Bushi, was a hand full of good cards and yellow gold.

However, "when you have eaten and drunk enough, of course you will have to fight next." Sid casually talked to Ali on the phone, picking at his nails.

"Are you so sure?" Although Ali is just a Hollywood gold agent on the surface, his eldest brother is a leader of the Democratic Party, and after the last recruitment of Shirley Sandberg, Sid will also give them some advice and random bullets through Ali.

"Don't forget where did Boo Ten work before?" Sid smiled faintly, "Oil company." ”

"If you look at the cabinet he is preparing, they are either arms dealers or ex-oil dealers, and it would be a waste of their skills to get together and not make some big news. Hearing Sid's words, Ali rubbed his brow.

"Okay, then I'll just relay your words to you. ”

"Okay. After a brief conversation, Sid hung up.

In fact, in the final analysis, the oath-taking ceremony of the new US President Xiao Bu Shi is not the most eye-catching event in January, because January 28 is the American version of the "Spring Festival Gala" - Super Bowl.

And at this year's Super Bowl, the halftime performers were performed by the hot Britney Spears.

It was definitely a halftime show that drove the whole of North America crazy.

Countless viewers and fans waited in front of the TV early, and although the final of the Super Bowl was also intense, many people always felt that their mood was fluctuating and they couldn't contain the excitement in their hearts.

In fact, the earliest Super Bowl halftime show performances are not as important and influential as they are today, although there are 100 million unnatural ratings, but for the NFL (North American Football League), the halftime show performance is not even as valuable as the advertising time that can bring real money.

It wasn't until 1993 that the pop king Michael Jackson shocked the American audience with his unparalleled performance, and at the same time made the NFL understand the influence of the Super Bowl halftime show on the entertainment music industry.

Since then, the halftime show in which big names are invited to star in 0 pay has become a regular item in the Super Bowl every year. And all the big-name singers are vying for it, seeing it as the supreme glory.

The main reason, of course, is the super publicity effect under the ratings of its lonely defeat.
