The content of this campaign is that it has been craze by countless media, so that Christine? Stewart's face-saving 'Split-Leg Gate' incident.

In fact, everyone in the circle knows that the private lives of male and female celebrities are in a mess, and Xiao Ke was unfortunately arrested and made a mess, and the media hype is of course not accidental, but the result of a series of behind-the-scenes operations.

No matter which way you look at it, Robert? Pattinson has the upper hand in his girlfriend's stealing incidents, compared to Christine? Stewart was not so lucky, not only was the accusations from the outside world almost drowning her, but in the behind-the-scenes battle, her public relations team could only be described as a failure, the public relations steps were a mess, and all kinds of negative news were flying all over the sky.

The most ruthless, Pani? Kelis kept releasing news to the outside world, saying that Christine? Stewart washes his face with tears all day long, and gives Robert every day? Pattinson texted and begged for forgiveness, even if it was just to be a regular friend......

This is tantamount to repeatedly emphasizing to the public that the woman's cheating is indeed a thing, and the real victim is the man.

It's no exaggeration to say that this is a very clever PR strategy, and it seems to be sympathetic to Christine? Stewart, in fact, stabbed the other party.

That's right, this circle of fighting for fame and fortune is like this, former boyfriends and girlfriends can also draw knives against each other, one of the seemingly simple things, often full of intrigue and shady, if someone imagines Hollywood as a circle of friendship and mutual help for adults, it is simply the funniest joke.

This is also the reason why Duke does not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire public relations, he is not an all-knowing genius, and his main energy must be focused on film production, and other professional things must naturally be left to professionals.

Although the two sides have reached a certain agreement verbally, Duke will not sign the contract so quickly, and some investigation on the side is also necessary. Like film investment, it's not something that can be decided on the brain.

After returning from France, Duke set aside five days of rest for himself, mainly to deal with some personal matters.

The appointment of assistant and public relations was preliminarily determined, and Duke went directly to Malibu the next day to meet up with Nancy? After Josephson. Rushed to the manor located in the area of the beach mansion.

The renovation of the estate, which had been under Nancy's supervision, was completed last month, and when she stepped into the villa, stepped over the new floor, and stood in front of the new floor-to-ceiling glass windows, Duke looked into the distance, the Pacific Ocean was blue, and the silence was like a sleeping baby, occasionally turning over. It will bring up waves.

"When are you going to move in?" Nancy? Josephson also came over.

"Also buy furniture ......"

Looking back at the empty living room, Duke frowned, "And the appliances, oh God!" It seems like there's still a lot of work to be done! ”

"Because there's a lack of a hostess here!" Nancy clearly did it on purpose, "Otherwise you don't have to worry about it at all." ”

Hostess?

Duke shook his head, now he didn't have such thoughts at all, it was to make himself uncomfortable. Even if you find a temporary hostess, it won't take long to replace it. Aren't all these newly bought furnishings rubbish?

Although money is no longer a problem for him now, under the influence of his mother, he can be extravagant, but he can't waste it.

"Don't the renovation company have any good recommendations?"

Skirting out of the living room, Duke walked up the stairs to the second floor. Nancy, who came up with her, said, "If they have a suitable recommendation, leave it to them to pack and deal with." ”

Nancy nodded and made a note of it, "I'll do my best to get them to pass on the renderings." ”

Walked around the entire estate. Although many details were suggested, Duke was satisfied with the whole, just like Santa Monica's home, the estate was hidden behind tall evergreen trees, looking luxurious and elegant.

"Furniture and the like are handled as much as possible."

As he walked towards the outdoor parking lot, Duke said to Nancy, "Help me find a suitable party company, and if I move, I will definitely have a party duì." ”

"Leave it to me." Nancy has no opinion.

Now that Duke is her biggest benefactor, Nancy has never been so glad that she was able to sign a very demanding young director in the first place.

"Oh, and ......"

Before getting into the car, Duke suddenly remembered one more thing, but then waved his hand to the confused Nancy, "Forget it, I'd better go to my mother for help." ”

With such a large estate, it is impossible to hire only temporary housekeepers, it must need a matching management service team, and for people like him who work hard in Hollywood, these people must be reliable, and it is better to find a mother to introduce them.

Driving out of the estate, Duke went straight to PwC's office in Los Angeles to find his accountant, David, who had a lot of financial questions and was waiting for him to sign for confirmation.

After the New Year, a lot of Duke's compensation for "Independence Day" began to arrive, and Warner Bros. and Twentieth Century Fox apparently wanted to work with him for a long time, and did not wait for the final date of the contract to pay a portion of the share.

Among them, Twentieth Century Fox, as the North American distributor of "Independence Day", officially paid Duke's directorial share in full last month after the film was removed from North America.

The film grossed $362.55 million at the North American box office, and under the tiered share agreement, Duke could take 20 percent of it, excluding the $30 million that Fox had already paid, and the remaining $42.51 million would be settled.

Overseas, the film's overseas box office has exceeded $500 million, automatically triggering a 20% share clause in the contract, but some overseas shares have not yet arrived, and some will not be paid for the time being, Warner Bros. only took out $200 million in box office shares, paying $40 million at the end of last month.

Even in Hollywood, where top directors and actors can participate in the share, this is a sky-high reward.

Of course, compared to what Spielberg got paid on Jurassic Park, it's not a grade at all.

The follow-up remuneration will come from the overseas box office, and Duke needs to wait patiently if he wants to get his hands on it, and it will be very good to be able to completely settle it by this time next year.

"Independence Day" has now broken through the $900 million mark at the global box office, as high as $901.13 million, although the film has been removed from all box office markets, there are still remote overseas regions that have just been released, and whether it can finally surpass the first place in the box office history of "Jurassic Park", no one can say.

After negotiating with David, Duke called his stockbroker again, and planned to take out part of the harvest funds in the near future and invest them in the stock market, the purpose of course is Apple and Microsoft, the latter's stock is very hot, and it can only be said that the stock price of the former is still falling all the way down, without the slightest rebound momentum.

However, "Toy Story" has been confirmed to be released in the Thanksgiving Christmas file, and Uncle Qiao is about to rise again.

Duke also did not intend to rely on these short-term profits, but only to preserve and appreciate the value, regardless of the stockbrokers' strong objections, to force the other party to turn the cash into the corresponding shares in the future.

In the same way, he will not blindly trust anyone, and there will be no less supervision in place.

It wasn't until late in the evening that Duke planned to leave PwC's office in Los Angeles, and when he walked out of David's office and into the elevator hall, he encountered an unexpected person.

"Sophie......" Duke raised an eyebrow and walked over, "Why are you here?" ”

Sophie? Marceau, dressed in a neat suit, turned his head and saw that it was Duke, and smiled a big but formulaic smile, "Come and see my accountant for something." ”

"I mean, when did you come to Los Angeles?" Duke could feel her politeness to herself, "Sophie, the beloved of the whole world?" Marceau came to Los Angeles, how could I, an Angeleno, not entertain him? ”

"My new movie is almost released." Sophie? Marceau seemed to be deliberately reminding, "I have to come over and cooperate with the crew to do some publicity work." ”

Duke didn't seem to understand, and said bluntly, "I don't know if it's an honor to invite you to dinner?" ”

"Tonight?"

Hesitated, Sophie? Marceau shook her head slowly but firmly, "I'm sorry, Duke, I have something to do in the evening." ”

The elevator door opened at this time, and the two walked in one after another, Duke looked at the mature and sexy French beauty next to him, and continued to ask, "What about tomorrow?" Can I show you around Los Angeles? ”

The more things you can't get, the more they can arouse people's interest, and Duke is just one of the ordinary people, and naturally he will be no exception.

"I'm sorry, Duke." Sophie? Marceau looked at him as well and said very seriously, "I'm married!" ”

"It's just an invitation from friends." Duke smiled nonchalantly, since the other party had no intention, he wouldn't stalk and fight, "Then let's talk about it when you have time." ”

The elevator door opens, and Duke vs. Sophie? Marceau nodded, stepped out of the elevator without hesitation, and walked towards his car.

Looking at Duke's back in the distance, Sophie? Marceau did not hesitate and went in the opposite direction, his steps moving rapidly, and his dreamy eyes flashed with thought.

Is it necessary to befriend a big Hollywood director, Sophie? Marceau knew everything clearly, and even as the other party thought, what was going on was not a big deal for her, but she decided to stay away from the young director.

The reason is simple, she is about to sign a contract with CAA, and the future agent will be named Martin? Bob is the mainstay, even if it hasn't quite made it to Hollywood, Sophie? Marceau also knows Duke? Rosenberg vs. CAA, to be exact, with Martin? The relationship between Bob and others is extremely poor.

She knows that it is not easy for foreign actors from non-English-speaking areas to gain a foothold in Hollywood, compared to Duke, who mainly shoots men's scenes? Rosenberg, CAA's power is stronger and more suitable for her future development.

Which option suits your needs, Sophie? Marceau thought very thoroughly, and now her biggest reliance in Hollywood is the CAA who is about to sign a contract! (To be continued......)
