The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1047 Devil’s Contract
Harry was trying to get his head working, but that was obviously not an easy task with a splitting headache.

Eve, Anson?
Sony Columbia?

What kind of game is going on here?

Colin also realized that Harry was not in the best condition at the moment, so after throwing out an introduction, he continued.

"Their reactions were very interesting. Some people hung up the phone directly, some were panicked and hesitant, and some were calm as if nothing had happened."

This time, Harry noticed it. If these people didn't have something to hide, their reaction wouldn't be so strange. The paparazzi's intuition immediately detected something strange. "Wait, who told them to shut up? But why did they have to shut up? What do they have to do with this incident?"

Colin, "Yes, that's the point. What do they have to do with this incident?"

"Right, I have done some serious research on these actors. Look, this is Robert Pattinson, a very young British actor, 17 years old, currently working as a model and trying to become an actor, but no works have been released yet."

"From any angle, such actors have nothing to do with the whole incident. However, Eve Wilson handed over this list at such a wonderful time. Eve is Anson's publicist."

Harry, "You mean, after Sony Columbia issued its official position?"

Colin, "Half and half. Half is because Sony Columbia has made an official statement, and half is because the attacks on you have reached a new level, and the general public's frustration and dissatisfaction with Anson's injury is reaching a peak."

Harry, "You mean, this list is related to Anson?"

Colin, "I had an idea, so I asked my assistant to call these people again, pretending to be Sony Columbia, and reschedule the interview."

Finally, Harry finally understood -

Audition!

Harry couldn't believe his ears. His knees went weak and he fell down, but he stood up immediately. "You mean, Sony Columbia is going to replace Anson? God, they are a bunch of devils!"

Colin gently pointed at the list in Harry's hand, "That's the Devil's Contract."

Imagine if any actor replaced Anson as Spider-Man under the current circumstances, no matter who it was, he would inevitably become the target of public criticism.

In other words, for success, fame and fortune, they have to sell their souls. Isn't this a devil's contract, or what?
Harry exclaimed, "What the hell!"

Then he couldn't help himself and began pacing around the room.

"If this news gets out, the ugly and evil face of Sony Columbia will be revealed to everyone, all the focus will turn to them, and I will be saved."

"Besides, I can also become a hero in defending Anson. No, I can redeem myself. This is self-redemption."

"Sony Columbia should go to hell, let them cool off in hell, haha."

Thinking about it, Harry almost jumped up in ecstasy.

Just then, an idea popped into my head.

"But why?"

Harry looked at Colin, who also had a meaningful look on his face, "Yes, why. Why did Eve hand over this list to us?"

Since Eve already has the list, she can make it public herself and launch a severe condemnation on Anson's behalf, which will attract widespread support.

However, Eve did not.

Harry thought about it seriously, "Kill with a borrowed knife." The thought came out of his mouth, but after saying it, Harry stood there in a daze.

The reason is very simple. If Anson goes public, it means that Anson and Sony Columbia are going to start a showdown. No matter who wins in the end, the scene will probably not be good. Then what about the cooperation on "Spider-Man 2" and "Spider-Man 3"?

But the paparazzi's words are different. Anson can perfectly extricate himself and continue to play the perfect victim. Whether the ending is to continue to cooperate with "Spider-Man 2" or to withdraw from the "Spider-Man 2" crew heartbroken, Anson can firmly gain the upper hand.

Colin nodded. "This is a devil's contract. It's true for the backup actors, and it's true for us as well."

"Once we go public, it means we are declaring war on Sony Columbia. The scene that follows will be very ugly. We will attract all the firepower of Sony Columbia."

"The situation may not be better than it is now."

Paparazzi vs. Sony Columbia?

I guess everyone will applaud this scene. The spectators will not favor any side, and they must bear all the attacks and fire.

Harry understood immediately, "What if we don't send it?"

Colin, "Do you think Eve doesn't have a second-hand plan? I'm sure US Weekly would love to get their hands on this list."

"Of course, we always have another option. I have considered joining Sony Columbia and helping Sony Columbia deal with Anson. We can kick Anson out of the Spider-Man 2 crew and enjoy the shade under the big tree."

But Harry knew Colin was joking. The entire public opinion was overwhelmingly on Anson's side, and Sony Columbia was also afraid to act rashly. Even though they knew that Anson was counterattacking behind their backs, they did not dare to act rashly.

There was no way. The "Spider-Man 2" project was too important, not just in terms of investment cost. It was also crucial for Sony Columbia to get back on track. They couldn't risk audience boycott by forcibly replacing Anson.

After thinking about it, Harry suddenly realized, "We don't have a choice, right?"

Colin let out a long breath.

Harry gave a wry smile. "I now believe that this was Anson's work. All of it."

Colin had never fought Anson head-on, and his face was full of doubt. "Are you crazy? This was given to me by Eve, Eve Wilson."

Harry shook his head slightly. "Believe me, Anson is behind this. This is Anson's warning. Next time, I shouldn't try to do anything stupid. He can take me to hell, and at the same time, he can take me to heaven."

Colin didn't believe it, "Are you sure?"

Harry held up the A4 paper in his hand. "Here is the answer. I can easily get out of this predicament, but the price is that I will become a thorn in the side of Sony Columbia. However, what can Sony Columbia do? Because the winner of this war is already determined, and I can be sure that it will not be Sony Columbia."

Colin looked at the messy Harry and asked, "Are you sure? Have you thought it through?"

Harry nodded. "Let's kill with a borrowed knife. You just said that 'US Weekly' was willing to pay anything for this list, but Anson gave it to us. To be more precise, he gave it to TMZ. So, not just anyone can become that sharp knife."

Colin looked up at the sky and sighed, "You feel superior just because you're a tool?"

Harry, "It's entertainment to death. No one can escape it, Colin, no one."

Even if this is a devil's contract, it doesn't matter, because from the day they become paparazzi, their souls have been sold to the devil, right?

In the evening, TMZ, which has always been at the center of the topic, quietly updated a report on its homepage, which dominated the screen in a short period of time.

"Sony Columbia's calculation: Who else can play Spider-Man besides Anson Wood?"
