Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

"You clearly told me that you have a job, but what is this? Why did you show up at the cinema and watch that damn movie? I need a reasonable explanation!" Peter slapped the newspaper in his hand. He loudly asked Julie who was sitting opposite and eating an apple.

"I don't need to explain anything to you. It's my private time. Whatever I do is my freedom." Jolie replied calmly, mainly because she was too lazy to argue with Pitt over such trivial matters.

But Peter didn't think this was a trivial matter. He even felt that his dignity as a man had been trampled on.

After all, he just said on the show that he felt that the movie was too superficial, and even wanted to teach the audience not to watch it. However, his wife turned around and ran to the cinema to watch the movie. The key is that it was still reported by reporters. When interviewed by reporters, Julie even praised the movie.

He still remembered what Julie said when he saw the video.

"This movie is great. It is a genre that I like very much. I especially like the role of FOX. If I had known about the filming of this movie in advance, maybe I would also want to audition for this role."

"You mean cooperation? It's not impossible. Mr. Nie's talent is obvious to all, and he has the ability to gain a foothold in Hollywood, whether as a director, an actor, or an investor."

"A comparison between the two movies? I think there is no comparison at all. "Assassin's League" is a purely commercial movie, with the purest Hollywood blockbuster style, stunning special effects, hot scenes, handsome guys and beauties Xiangqi and those gorgeous firearms that are cold but bring out a burst of blood.”

"Compared to "Return to Youth", which is a film that emphasizes warmth, its advantage is no longer to stimulate the audience's vision, but to touch the audience's heart. I think both movies have their own strengths, and "Assassin's League" may gain more. Good box-office performance, but "Rejuvenation" may be able to fulfill Pitt's Oscar dream."

In Pitt's view, Jolie's words were a complete betrayal of him.

What do you mean that movie is great? What do you mean there is no comparability? What he wants now is not those illusory Oscars. What he wants is real box office results. But what is Julie talking about? She is not telling everyone clearly that she is not optimistic about the box office of "Rejuvenation". Results?

Pitt was so enraged by the news that Jolie secretly watched "League of Assassins" that he completely put himself in the position of a victim, but did not realize that in fact, what Jolie said was reasonable and even I put in a good word for Pete. After all, a movie that can participate in the Oscars is itself a representative of high quality.

It's a pity that Pitt didn't understand Jolie's good intentions at all, and he only felt that his girlfriend had deeply betrayed him.

"What is your private time? We are husband and wife, so we should be honest with each other, instead of going to see a movie that is competing with your husband under the guise of work and praising the movie. Do you know that because of what you said, I will probably become the laughing stock of the United States."

"Pete, I know what you are talking about. I am just telling my true inner thoughts. That movie really suits my taste. My praise comes from my heart. Do I even have the right to tell the truth?" Are they all gone?"

"But you know, just the night before you praised that movie, I criticized that movie on the show."

"I'm sorry, I really don't know." Julie shrugged her shoulders and replied: "And even if I knew, I would say this. You have your thoughts, and I also have mine. Remember, the premise of our relationship is mutuality. I don’t interfere with the other person’s personal preferences, so what movies I like have nothing to do with you.”

After saying this, Jolie turned and walked towards the bedroom without waiting for Pitt to answer. She had already heard her daughter crying. Apparently, the quarrel between the two frightened the child.

"FU-CK!!!" With a roar, the remote control fell to the ground and fell apart.

Peter's troubles weren't over yet. On the night he broke the remote control, his agent called him and informed him of the bad news.

"Those bastards verbally promised me to cut that section, but today it was all broadcast on the show. Now the public opinion outside is very bad for you. Your social account has been temporarily taken over by the company. You'd better do it Reduce going out, the company will use the highest level of public relations fees to help you reverse the current situation as soon as possible. All you have to do is wait patiently and contact the company. "

After receiving the call, Peter listened to his agent's words silently, and then hung up the phone without saying a word.

He no longer had the energy to get angry. He didn't need to go online, but he could still imagine the faces of those netizens. At this moment, he was just deeply tired. He didn't know what was wrong. In just a few days, He went from being a glamorous star to the embarrassment he is now.

Peter curled up on the sofa, very tightly, as if this was the only way he could feel a little warmth.

Unknowingly, Pete, who was curled up on the sofa, had fallen asleep. Soon, the bedroom door opened, and Julie, who had just finished coaxing the child, came out. As soon as she walked down the half-stairs, she saw curled up on the sofa in the living room. Sleeping Pete.

A trace of heartache flashed in Julie's eyes. Although the two have been quarreling recently, the four-year relationship has not completely faded away. He has feelings for Pitt. She just doesn't understand why Pitt is so interested in that "Assassin's League" care.

After all, after so many years in the industry, not only Pitt, but also Jolie's own works have had many failures. What's more, "Rejuvenation" is far from being called a failure. It can even be said to be very successful. Except for the box office, everything about this movie All can be called excellent.

After thinking about it, Julie returned to the room. A minute later, she came out with a blanket, walked to the sofa, gently covered Pete, then poured a glass of water and placed it on the sofa table so that Pete would wake up. After that, you can drink it directly.

After doing all this, Julie looked at the sleeping Pitt and sighed before returning to the room.

Just when Pete fell asleep unknowingly, his agent was extremely busy. The company's response was rapid, but it could not quell the anger of netizens for a while.

Especially viewers who have watched "Assassins" deeply felt that they were provoked by Pitt's remarks.

"Who does he think he is, and he can define the quality of a movie? If he could, then what else would be needed for Oscar judging? Just leave it to this guy named Pete."

"Oh my god, I can't believe this is what a star would say. Does he really have a brain?"

"The audience is not children. "League of Assassins" is facing audiences over the age of 18. We already have mature judgment capabilities and don't need you to dictate our choices on TV."

"I think Pete is too arrogant. He tries to be a mentor to the audience, but in fact he is just a clown, and a failed clown!"

"I have seen both movies, and I think each has its own charm. I don't agree with Pitt's so-called superficial remarks. If he goes by what he said, then more than half of the movies in Hollywood will be labeled superficial. The key is that most of these movies Some of them are very popular with the audience. Could it be said that all audiences are superficial? In short, Pete’s remarks this time disappointed me.”

"I decided to watch League of Assassins again to express my protest against Pitt's comments."

The anger of netizens exceeded the manager's imagination. Although he had known that releasing this episode would have a negative impact, he did not expect it to be so big.

Of course, this is mainly related to the younger age of the audience of "League of Assassins".

You must know that "League of Assassins" was rated an R-rated movie directly after passing the censorship. Different from the domestic harmonious version, in the version released abroad, Nie Wei added all the violent and bloodthirsty clips, which also made the original The movie, which was only about one hundred minutes long, was directly extended to one hundred and thirty minutes.

Anyway, Nie Wei didn't expect "League of Assassins" to be rated PG-13 without those scenes, and it wouldn't fall to NC17 if there were more shots.

Although the starting age of the audience for "League of Assassins" is relatively high due to the movie rating, in fact, according to theater statistics, most of the main audience for this movie are under the age of thirty, accounting for a full 55% of the audience. Proportion.

As for young people, they are in the rebellious stage, or not long after the rebellious stage has passed, and they are suddenly called superficial spectators by a stranger, even if the other party is a big star, it is obviously not acceptable.

And often, people of this age are the most easily incited and irritated. Naturally, the angry audience will not let go of Pete who made those remarks so easily.

"Five media outlets have already expressed their approval of Pete's remarks, but the effect is not obvious, and those netizens do not buy it very much."

"As for the film critics, ask them to stand up and speak for Peter. As long as the price is not excessive, we can accept it. Also remember to warn them not to criticize one and then praise the other. We can't irritate the audience of "Assassin's League" "Yeah, they're so crazy, they just need to say something good about Pitt's movie," Pitt's agent ordered.

While the agency behind Pitt was busy dealing with the storm of negative comments about Pitt on the Internet, Nie Wei and Luo Kai in the hotel felt that their day was really wonderful.

From Jolie running to watch "Assassins" and being blocked by reporters in the toilet, and then praising the movie, to Pitt criticizing the news of "Assassins" in the news program broadcast in the evening, Nie Wei felt that she had never met any couple who had such no tacit understanding and such different tastes as these two couples.

"This Pete is too much. What are you saying? Watching "League of Assassins" is just superficial. I think he is childish when he says this. But his wife is quite nice, and he wants to cooperate with you Nie Wei." "Yes." Luo Kai was angry at Pitt's remarks, but at the same time he was happy and proud of Jolie's praise.

After all, Julie, an actress who is a top star in Hollywood, also wants to extend an invitation to Nie Wei to cooperate. According to Luo Kai, this is definitely an honor.

"What are you thinking? I'm just being polite." Nie Wei smiled and said, he would not take Julie's words seriously, and for a top actress like Julie, the agency behind her would definitely not take risks. Put her in a movie that's mostly made by Chinese people.

"Even if it's just a courtesy, you are the first director in China to make Jolie say this." Luo Kai said this, and suddenly thought of Jolie's husband Pitt, and couldn't help complaining: "It's this woman who doesn't have a good eye for men. She actually found such an uncultured guy as her husband."

"They are not married, so theoretically, they are in a relationship."

Luo Kai was speechless. He didn't expect Nie Wei's answer to be such an irrelevant point. Whether they are husband and wife or lovers, shouldn't Nie Wei care about what bad things Pitt said about him?

"Brother Luo Kai, I actually have to thank him. If it weren't for his words, I believe that the fans of "Assassin's League" would not be so united. And because of his words, "Assassin's League" has been promoted again. If possible, if the other party is willing, I think I can send him a flower basket." Nie Wei explained jokingly.

Of course, it's impossible to send a flower basket, but Nie Wei's gratitude to Pitt is indeed true.

The next morning, the box office results of "Assassin's Alliance" proved how sincere Nie Wei was.

"13.3 million, it actually increased by more than 3 million. Wow, I am a little grateful to Pitt now." After seeing the box office results, Luo Kai laughed and couldn't help but tease Pitt like Nie Wei.

Originally, "Assassin's Alliance" had entered a period of box office decline, and had already fallen below 10 million. Unexpectedly, with the help of Pitt and Jolie, it was revived and ushered in another wave of growth.

So far, the box office revenue of "Assassin's Alliance" has exceeded 80 million in one week, firmly sitting on the throne of the box office champion of the week, and this result was also unexpected by everyone before the release of this movie, including Nie Wei.

No matter how confident Nie Wei was about this movie, the goal he set at the beginning was actually just to get the top three, but after a series of coincidences, the performance of "Assassin's Alliance" was completely beyond Nie Wei's expectations. After this week, Nie Wei even wondered if he was really favored by the goddess of luck.

The first week box office performance of "Assassin's League" in North America was so amazing that it greatly affected the box office performance of this movie in China. Especially after Julie's praise, it was widely reported by domestic media, which boosted the momentum of "Assassin's League". The box office performance, which had been on a downward trend, began to pick up, just like North America, and the degree was even higher than that in North America.

Nie Wei was naturally very happy to get this good news, but unfortunately some people were in a very bad mood, such as Adolf who wanted to kiss a donkey.
