The tabloids, especially the tabloids owned by News Corporation, are all about their virtues, Ryan knows very well, and some people in the New York Post may not know, but when it comes to the Sun, everyone probably knows it, and these two newspapers belong to Murdoch's banner and have the same reporting style.

After the lawyer's letter was sent, the tabloids were much more restrained, and now it's only the early 90s, and they're not as rampant as they were later.

Ryan immediately threw this matter to the back of his mind, he couldn't be bitten by a dog and then bite back from a dog, right? Besides, don't worry, if there is a chance in the future, he will naturally settle this account with News Corporation, he is not the person who can support the boat in the prime minister's belly.

As for going to court, forget it, those tabloids want him to take them to court, so they can do free publicity for them and increase their influence.

Originally, Ryan also wanted to find time to visit Natalie, but unfortunately, the Long Island girl was not in New York, and after the summer vacation began, she participated in a drama summer camp and went to Tennessee early.

After going around a big circle in major cities in eastern North America, on July 29, the crew came to Zuihou, a coastal resort in Florida, Miami.

Over time, the box office of "Terminator 2" has become more and more terrifying, and after winning nearly $60 million in the first four days, the box office still achieved more than $47 million in the full seven days of the second week, although there was a slight decline at the box office.

The North American box office exceeded $100 million in two weeks after the movie was released, even if it is still a little short of the results achieved by "Batman", but it is very rare, don't forget that "Batman" is a superhero, and has accumulated a huge number of comic book fans before the movie even appeared.

Today, "Terminator 2" has achieved a box office of nearly $160 million in four weeks after its release in North America, and it is a foregone conclusion that the North American box office will exceed $200 million.

To put it bluntly, this movie swept the summer file, and there have been many movies that have changed their release dates because of their existence.

The two teams promoted by the crew on the east and west coasts have become the focus of the entertainment media, no matter where they go, they are surrounded by a large number of fans, as well as dozens of big newspapers and tabloid reporters, and the film they murdered in the past month is estimated to be able to pull from New York to Los Angeles.

James Cameron has completely established himself as a master, Linda Hamilton has also become an A-list actress, and the people who have benefited the most from the movie are naturally Ryan and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Needless to say, as the movie continues to sell well, more and more media continue to put the name of Hollywood's No. 1 child star on his head, including large newspapers such as the New York Times and the Washington Post, and at least half of the fans who surround the crew during every promotion are for him.

Of course, the biggest gain is Arnold Schwarzenegger, the T800 catapulted him into a Hollywood superstar, and it is said that some studios have offered him $20 million to join him.

It's a pity that Schwarzenegger politely refused, because he had a perfect script in his hands.

In an interview with reporters, a fan once said, "I had no interest in the movie, I just walked into the theater because I liked Ryan, but after the movie started, the tense plot and suffocating air made me tremble with excitement, and the fatal shot of T800 to T1000 made me extremely excited, I will always remember the ending of the movie, he made me cry, I like John Connor played by Ryan, I like this rebellious and kind future savior, I also like the T800 played by Schwarzenegger, who accompanied me through the whole movie. ”

"Especially the T800, I love his leather jacket, sunglasses and that shotgun; I love the human heart under his metal shell. The image of the Terminator sinking into the furnace still ripples in my mind, the slowly descending rope, the hot furnace, watching the broken Terminator slowly melt in the furnace, I don't know what moistens my eyes, when he is about to be burned out, the thumbs up knocks my heart at once, although crying in front of others seems hypocritically embarrassing, but I really can't help it. ”

All right! His own brain-dead fans began to transform into Arnold's brain-dead fans! This is what Ryan thinks after seeing the report, however, he doesn't mind, even if he is the one with the best acting skills in the movie, the movie is destined to leave only one classic image, that is, the T800.

After the intensive propaganda journey, Ryan's body gradually became a little unbearable, after all, he was in the stage of growing his body.

When I returned to the Hilton Hotel from the theater that day, I really wanted to go straight to bed and get a good night's sleep.

Cameron didn't let Ryan have a little leisure, pulled him to the café, found a secluded place to sit together, looked at him with a big beard and just smiled, Ryan was puzzled, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, he finally understood.

A middle-aged man entered the café and walked straight to their table, and after shaking his hand, James Cameron introduced, "Ryan, this is Grant Hill, the production manager of Twentieth Century Fox. ”

Then, he introduced Ryan to the other party.

Grant Hill? Ryan frowned, all he knew was that there was a basketball guy who seemed to have that name, well, he had no love for basketball, he didn't remember it clearly, but he was sure he hadn't seen each other before, after all, he had very little contact with Twentieth Century Fox because of News Corp.

After saying hello, everyone sat down again, Ryan was so smart, looked at the two who were talking in a whisper, and roughly understood what was going on.

Twentieth Century Fox is a film subsidiary of News Corp. and the most enjoyable film company to work with James Cameron, and Ryan knows that if it weren't for his appearance, "True Lies", "Titanic" and "Avatar" would be the product of their collaborations in the future.

Because of the tabloids represented by the New York Post, Ryan has no good impression of News Corporation, and has complained more than once during the crew's publicity, presumably Cameron should have seen something, which privately facilitated this meeting.

In fact, Ryan knows very well that most of the attacks of those newspapers and magazines are due to nature, and there is no penny relationship between them and the film company, and besides, hype is hype, and business is business, which are two different things.

This is North America, which is more pragmatic, and after a few simple polite words from both sides, it quickly got to the point.

"Ryan, Twentieth Century Fox has the intention of investing in True Lies, and I'm here to ask for your opinion." Grant Hill said.

"I gave Jim the script, and I won't interfere with which film company he wants to work with, and as for the price of the script, you can have people talk to Patter." Ryan originally wanted to make a part of the investment in this movie, but thinking about the terrifying budget of this movie in his previous life, and then thinking about the little money he had, he still forgot it.

"Do you have any suggestions?" Hill asked again.

"It's Jim's movie, so I'd better have less opinions."

Seeing Cameron's eyes, Ryan had no choice but to say, "Okay, one thing, this movie is the inspiration I got from an old French movie, and the copyright is currently in my hands, so you probably have to spend a little more." ”

The two still looked at him in a daze, Ryan sighed, and had to say again, "Talk to the Pentagon and get a few real Sea Harrier fighters, Arnold had better learn to pilot, at least to ensure takeoff and landing." ”

"Actually......" Cameron pinched his beard, "I'd love to change the daughter in the movie to a son, and then let you star it." ”

"Come on, Jim, then the character is going to be overturned, and besides, I'm not the right age right now." As a last resort, Ryan didn't want to work with him again as an actor.

What's more, in the previous life, Alyssa Dushku, who played the daughter, fell off the plane during filming, broke several ribs, and lay in the hospital for several months, God only knows if the same situation will happen if he starred.

Grant Hill didn't expect things to go surprisingly well, of course, they only need to reach an agreement, and the specific things will naturally be discussed by the agent.

After a few more words, he quickly talked about the investment in this movie, and Grant Hill knew that Ryan and Nicole and others had set up a shell film company, and politely asked, "Ryan, in fact, we can work together." ”

Ryan naturally understood what he was talking about, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Grant, I want to ask, how much budget did you have for this movie?" ”

"It's $100 million at the moment." Hill didn't frown when he said this.

Indeed, the big hit of "Terminator 2" made people see James Cameron's strength clearly, and also realized that if you want to achieve a high box office, big investment and big production will be inevitable.

But Ryan knew that the $100 million was definitely not enough for Cameron to squander, and the investment would have to rise by at least 20 percent, and he had heard the bearded man say that the film would not start until next year at the earliest, and he didn't have that much money to spend on this project.

"Forget it, you should know that we collaborated with Warner on "Bodyguard" and Miramax on "Yihai Heroes", and we don't have enough funds at the moment." Ryan refused outright.

When he said goodbye, Grant Hill solemnly shook Ryan's hand, completely with the attitude of dealing with his peers, "Okay, Ryan, I think we will have more opportunities to work together in the future." ”

"There will be." Ryan replied politely.

Back on the floor where he lived, before entering the room, Ryan said a few words to the oncoming Mario Casa, that he would not follow the crew tomorrow and would go to the seaside set in Miami to visit the class.

Nicole Kidman was filming part of the Navy scene with the crew.
