After signing the £120 contract with Hello magazine, Tom Cruise rushed to Li Xiaole's office as soon as possible, and shouted excitedly:

"Lee~~Lee~~~~"

Li Xiaole was studying the media report data with Lei Ting's office when he heard Tom Cruise yelling, looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong, Tom?" ”

Tom Cruise took the contract and shook it in front of Li Xiaole, and shouted emotionally: "Li, I'm going to get married, oh my God~~ I'm getting married~~"

"I know?" Li Xiaole and Lei Ting are confused, isn't it already confirmed?

"You don't understand~~ I'm married~~!" Tom Cruise laughed happily and slapped the contract on Li Xiaole's chest: "Li~~We are making a comeback~We have regained our strength~~ "Hello" magazine signed my wedding photography rights~~ Guess how much? £1,200,000~~Oh my God~Do you believe it~~It's £1,200,000~~"

"Oh...... I'm really happy for you~" Li Xiaole couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that it was just such a little money, is it worth making a fuss?

"Ha~~It should be happy for us~~" Tom Cruise opened his arms, his face was full of excitement and excitement, and the heartfelt satisfaction exuded from that smile made Li Xiaole involuntarily laugh:

"Yes, it should be happy for us."

"Lee, thank you~~ It's all up to you~~" Tom Cruise opened his hands and gave Li Xiaole a fierce hug, which caught Li Xiaole off guard and could only smile bitterly:

"Tom~~Tom~~I can't breathe~" He really didn't understand what the reason for Tom Cruise to be so excited, and even a little disappointed in him, why was Tom Cruise so vain? That's just £1.2 million...

But just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard sobs in his ears...... Tom Cruise's whole body trembled slightly...... My heart was shocked. He...... Are you crying ......?

“…… Thank you...... Thank you ......."

Yes, this self-lettered superstar is crying, and crying very sadly...... Tears were pouring down his shoulders, and he couldn't cry...... hugged him like a child who had been suppressed for a long time and cried bitterly......

At this moment, Li Xiaole suddenly seemed to understand that this £1.2 million contract is not money at all for Tom Cruise, but a kind of dignity, the dignity of an actor to be recognized by others...... Whether it's a supporting role or a superstar like Tom Cruise, in the final analysis, he's just a simple actor at heart......

Many people seem to be an actor is an incomparably glamorous profession, but in fact an actor is a sad profession, because no matter how hard an actor works and how hard he works, he can't make his own worthwhile, even if he performs a heartfelt performance, in fact, his performance is just a void feeling.

And only this nihilistic emotion can only be blended with the emotions of others and moved by others, and the actor can truly glow with his brilliance......

The value of an actor does not care about him, but only about the way others look at him......

Even a superstar like Tom Cruise, who used to be high, and put all his energy and talent into creating movies, will inevitably fall to the bottom and lose their original brilliance, and those who once had all the honors and popularity have completely disappeared in a short period of time......

All that remains, there is only indifference, mockery, hostile gaze, the collapse of the original life, which is too cruel and sad for anyone...... This is the fate of actors.

The confident Tom is actually no different from those actors who play tricks, and he will spend countless nights worrying about what his future will be...... Confusion, despair, worry, panic...... Tossing and turning......

Actor is such a profession that lives in despair......

Li Xiaole sighed in his heart, but when he heard the door being pushed open, Wagner entered the door excitedly, and was immediately stunned when he saw this scene.

When Li Xiaole, who was being held by Tom Cruise, was feeling the feelings, he turned his head and saw Lei Ting looking here with different and relish eyes, and made a move: "Do I want to take Wagner to avoid it".

Thinking that now his two big men hugged and cried bitterly, Li Xiaole was a little embarrassed to help the emotional Tom Cruise to the sofa, and after comforting him a few words, he asked Wagner to comfort him, and he walked aside to help Tom make a cup of coffee to relieve his excitement.

"It's not what you think it is." Li Xiaole whispered to Lei Ting with some embarrassment while making coffee.

"I didn't say anything about you?" Lei Ting showed that cold smile, but there was a happy look in her evil eyes:

"I'm just worried about Ha Ji Won, this is the second time I've seen a man hug you and cry emotionally, but your gaze on choosing a man is still improving, at least this one is much more handsome than the last time Wang Baoqiang......"

Li Xiaole could only smile bitterly when he heard it, and looked at Wagner again, but saw her looking at this side with a happy expression, as if she had caught her own handle, and her artists were back at the top, and they could see this cunning Chinese embarrassment, what could be happier than this, Li Xiaole could only helplessly tilt his head and pretend that this thing had not happened......

While the people of Black Pearl are enjoying the great joy of the movie, their competitors are upset and regretful.

"Shit!! Go to hell! Disney that idiot!! Why do you have to release it with "Iron Man"~! Ahhh~~" On this day, Mel Gibson was so angry that he blackened his face all day, drank a day's stuffy wine in the office, yelled angrily from time to time, and smashed everything on the table that could be broken.

"What the hell is going on with these people...... It's all a bunch of stupid people, they're all crazy......" Claude, the agent next to him, was also discouraged and had nothing to do...... Is "Iron Man" so good?!

"Alas, why is this happening," the new 007 Daniel Craig looked at the latest "Iron Man" box office in the newspaper, frowning helplessly, the outside world has begun to discuss that he is the most failed in the history of 007, he obviously has a good reputation among film critics, but everyone compares him to Tom Cruise, in comparison, James Bond lost to Tony Stark this time......

Of course, not all actors affected by "Iron Man" have received bad news, for example, Robert Downey Jr., who declined to play Tony Stark for various reasons, because he has always maintained close contact with Li Xiaole, and after Black Pearl United States gained a firm foothold, he also began to book a number of new film projects, including an A-level production "Sherlock Holmes", Li Xiaole has been hand-picked by him to star, which makes Robert Downey Jr. not regret missing "Iron Man" for life.

For these actors, the blow that "Iron Man" brought to the top executives of the Big Six was devastating, and they were about to be driven crazy by the box office of "Iron Man......

At the six emergency high-level meetings held at Warner, an oppressive and suffocating atmosphere hung over the office.

Warner Pictures' Jeff Robinoff, Sony's President Hahn Lesser, Disney's Saha Wharton, Twentieth Century Fox's Carl Lewis, and Paramount & Universal – the heads of the six major studios gathered here for an urgent summit.

"That damn movie has been over $100 million at the box office for two weeks in a row!? Did you all contribute? Isn't it true that any of you have already reached a cooperation with Black Pearl? How else could he have such a high box office? Harn Lesser, the new president of Sony Columbia Pictures, questioned the others with a grim face.

Seeing that no one was silent, the first reaction of this young Hollywood talent, who had been forced by Li Xiaole to break down, was to turn his head and stare at Jeff Robinoff, CEO of Warner Pictures, and shouted:

"Robinov! Don't you Warners have control over all of the AOL networks? Why are there still 23 small TV stations that broadcast the news of "Iron Man"!? After shouting, he turned to look at Carl Lewis, executive director of Twentieth Century Fox, and roared:

"Also, you Lewis~! Isn't the news conglomerate behind your Fox the most dominant media conglomerate in the world, with the right to speak half the world? Why can't even a small Black Pearl company be suppressed now!? It's just a company that has just been established for two years, how can it take 200 million box office right under our noses!? ”

Several high-level executives present looked at the out-of-control president of Sony Pictures with helpless faces, and also felt very aggrieved, only Warnerjeff Robinov was relatively calm, and sighed softly:

"Lesser, it's not that we haven't done a good job in this matter, we have done everything we have to do, and each one has mobilized all the public relations forces, but this time those other independent film companies, the media backlash exceeded our expectations, I think we usually suppressed them too much, they have long wanted to find an opportunity to do it with us, the Black Pearl matter is just a fuse......"

"It's you, Robinov!! It's you Warner and Black Pearl who have reached a partnership, right? Hahn Lesser's face was almost distorted, and he rushed over and glared at Jeff Robinoff fiercely, as if he was going to eat him alive:

"You Warners are going to make the movie version of "The Walking Dead" with Black Pearl, and you have already planned it with them, right!?"

"You calm down......" Jeff Robinoff, whose hair has been gone, is a Hollywood legend, and it took him 32 years from a small producer to the president of Warner, and in the face of the offense of Hahn Lesser, a Wall Street-born Hollywood newcomer in a suit, he showed the patience of an old-school filmmaker and said calmly:

"Okay, Lesser, no matter how annoyed you are now, it is in vain, you should also know that this incident against the Black Pearl, to put it bluntly, is also dominated by the two of us, and in this situation, you and I can't escape responsibility...... Now you still have to be realistic, we must immediately stop the needless suppression of the Black Pearl Company to avoid greater losses for our company......"
