Stallone is not as good as her.

After getting Barbara's vague answer, Stallone and Jason Statham began to refuse to cooperate with the publicity, and they began to stop running the propaganda so actively, because they felt that they were making money for Barbara, and they could only watch.

Stallone's agent even deliberately revealed in an interview with print media: "To be honest, it's really unfair. The script idea came from Stallone, the director is Stallone, and the tied first protagonist is Stallone, so it can be said that the death squad is Stallone's work. But... It's ridiculous that the person who makes a lot of money now is not Mr. Stallone, and he doesn't get a penny of dividends from the high box office, but it happens. Capital is a complete demon that devours creativity!! ”

When these words were disseminated, they quickly caused a new storm of public opinion, and formed a wave of discussion on a wide scale.

When a discussion takes place, it is natural that polarizations form.

There are quite a few people who support Stallone, most of them are die-hard fans of Stallone and some film production companies and distribution companies.

"This is really a bit excessive, the dashing company is simply breaking the rules of the entertainment industry, they don't play according to the routine at all. They are not only brokers, but also distributors, but also producers, such a trinity, it is simply an independent kingdom. Stallone was completely tricked, he is the biggest hero, he is the one who deserves the most dividends! The president of Paramount was very angry and made a statement in front of the media.

"I know that woman named Barbara is very powerful, she is basically the most cruel and greedy capitalist in the entertainment industry, whoever cooperates with her will definitely be sucked out of all the blood and even bone marrow. Locke, come to us in the lower part. We'll give you dividends! The boss of Universal also shouted publicly in front of the media.

In addition, there are some well-known artists and agencies supporting Stallone.

These people are all from a lot of backgrounds, but without exception, they are all competitors of Xiao Squander, and they are full of hostility to this disruptor in the entertainment industry. No way, who let Barbara control the second largest theater chain in North America, and also has a lot of superstar pressing? And most importantly. These guys are so out of the rules, they can always easily grasp the opponent's bottom line, and then kill throughout, and they succeed!

This shark with Chinese ancestry has already produced enough gore in the North American realm. This makes them have to find an opportunity to launch a group attack on it!

But, alas, the audience is not on their side.

The vast majority of the crowd sided with Xiao and Barbara, because Barbara personally held a press conference to explain to the media: "Our company has always been very open and a win-win company, and all of our contracted stars enjoy the benefits of box office dividends." But Mr. Stallone did not sign a substantial contract with us, and before investing in the start of the film. I've asked him if he wants to invest in the director's fee and salary. But he didn't, he went the more secure way, and we paid him all of his pay quickly, even though it went up by 30 percent on our production costs. But Xiao Shi did so, and what he got now was exactly what he had paid in return. No one can get a large sum of money for no reason, and a choice needs to be made before any outcome is revealed. Mr. Xiao Shao's choice was correct, and Mr. Stallone's choice was sound. ”

"Back to the movie itself. Regarding the issue of the second part of the expendables, we will not be involved in any investment. Xiao Xiao will definitely not participate. So... If you want to enjoy a chic action scene, go to the theater. There's everything you want to see! ”

Barbara's response was very hard, without any negotiating tone or any official tone, just straight to open everything up and expose it to the sun for everyone to evaluate.

Her approach is very much in line with the positioning of those entertainment giants for her...... That's where the game comes in. Completely out of the routine.

But, unfortunately, the public is very much in her set.

When her rhetoric spread, almost ninety percent of the people were on her side.

"Since you have chosen a safe salary, and you are not owed your salary. So... Stallone's complaint is completely unreasonable and stupid. ”

"To be honest, everyone goes to the movies for chic, so it's just right for him to get a lot of box office dividends."

"Stallone is really a little funny, why did he make a victim expression? It's obviously a choice you made, so you should bear the consequences in front of you! You can't be envious and jealous just because you got a lot of dividends, and even say such completely unreasonable things! ”

"What a matter of following the rules of the game!! I have to hurry up and go to the cinema because there is a good chance that I will never see Xiao Xiao filming again. ”

"Everyone knows why the box office of the Expendables is so high, after all, everyone is going for the show, and he did contribute a performance worthy of the ticket price. That's enough. ”

“…………”

Basically everyone was on Xiao's side, and that support quickly turned into another blowout at the box office, which even surpassed the $100 million mark on Sunday, and the popularity continued to rise.

In this case, those box office forecasters have once again pushed up their predictions, and now they are basically predicting that they will be able to exceed a billion dollars. After all, there have been no super blockbusters released for two weeks, the market is already extremely hungry, coupled with the sluggish popularity, it is very likely that the box office will break double digits.

And if the box office exceeds one billion, Xiao Sao will definitely get more.

This is something that Stallone didn't expect at all, he didn't expect this thing to go like this.

Xiao and Barbara not only took advantage of this event to get more, but also announced that the lower part would not be invested and Xiao Xiao would not act...... Stallone is not a fool, of course he knows how important Chi Chi is to the box office, how much trouble can he make with a few old men, plus a Jason Statham who specializes in B-grade movies?

Of course, those investors also knew this truth, so they were eager to contact Stallone to discuss the second part. Now as soon as I heard that Xiao Xiao was not acting, his interest immediately weakened a lot, and the investment amount continued to be lowered.

At this time, Barbara reached an agreement with Bruce Willis, and they revealed that they intended to make another Die Hard film, and also hinted that Xiao Dang was likely to appear......

This is going to be a fight!!

As soon as the news was released, those investors became more cautious. After all, with Xiao Xiao's current momentum, fighting him is undoubtedly an egg hitting a stone!!

Capital is ruthless.

As for Barbara's series of counterattacks, Xiao Sao did not participate in it from beginning to end, and he enjoyed his warm time very calmly.

Xiao Swan likes money very much, but when it comes to him like a tidal wave, he doesn't have the feeling of losing his mind and completely indulging in it.

The day after learning that the box office had exceeded $200 million, he showed up at the training camp as usual, even though he hadn't been here for a week. But he arrived in the same mood as he had left, cheerful and happy.

Xiao Xiao enjoyed the joy of basketball when he walked to the court to shoot the basketball...... The sound of sizzling is the same as the sound of counting money, it is so comfortable for him, comfortable from the heart.

Xiao can treat basketball as the same as making money, but many people can't.

Because they don't love basketball from the bottom of their hearts, they just love the money that basketball brings.

When word spread across the league that Xiao Swan's movie was making so much money, some players began to show completely different faces.

"I think Xiao Shao can go and become a professional actor, he can obviously make more money in Hollywood. Did you hear that? He will get at least seven or eight billion dollars from this movie, and Stallone will have to work for him. Carlos Boozer said in an interview.

"If this trend continues, I think Xiao Po may only need to shoot five or six movies to buy the entire NBA, he is too rich. To be honest, I was very envious, envious to the extreme. I often wonder, why wasn't that lucky person me? Stoudemire also made no secret of his blush.

"Dash has now surpassed Michael Jordan to become the richest man the NBA has ever seen, and I think it's time for him to leave the league. After all, most of the people in this league are only multimillionaires, and a few are billionaires. But come on, he's already on the Forbes list, and he's a rich man on an equal footing with the team owner. Kevin Durant's words are also very exaggerated.

"I think money can change everything! Xiao Xiao will soon get tired of this life, because the players are so boring! Moreover, when you can make seven or eight billion or more by casually using a vacation to shoot a film, why do you have to train hard and then play an entire season to get a few million? He's still on his rookie contract. Dwyanwade said with a little worry, but it was still difficult to hide envy in his words.

"The reason we play in the league is because we can only make so much money through basketball, and he's obviously getting more money doing easier jobs, so why would he do that? I think he'll soon be buying out his contract with a check and then becoming a happy movie star. Anyway, he likes to have scandals with female celebrities, and it's obvious that it's more suitable for him!! Chris Bosh said.

has always been a rival, when these stars see that Xiao Sao can easily earn so much money, there will definitely be a psychological imbalance, which is a very normal phenomenon.

And some basketball commentators have also begun to carry out various criticisms and criticisms of Xiao Shao.
