Hollywood Tycoon [US Entertainment + Business War]

Chapter 122 The Uproar in Hollywood

Hollywood discriminates against people of color, discriminates against feminism, discriminates against homosexuals... These are all true, but no Hollywood practitioner would be stupid enough to go to a group of reporters and say that he is actually gay, especially when he said it. According to a gay Hollywood producer.After the reporters were dumbfounded for a while, the spotlight flashed, and every reporter shouted in their hearts, "Mr. Gibson, you are really a 'good guy'! Once your 'shit theory' comes out, it is estimated that the next six months in the United States will You are the headline in the entertainment! It’s not enough to kill a bunch of homosexuals, but you’re still talking to a new Hollywood tycoon.”

At this time, Mel Gibson was still drunk, but the people behind and around Mel Gibson were all moving as if they were on fire.First, the editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair rushed to Jed's residence in Beverly Hills to apologize. Although "Vanity Fair" has a lot to do with the entertainment industry, it is still a fashion magazine. If it is reported that "Vanity Fair" discriminates against homosexuals in the gay fashion circle, the publishers of the publishing house will mercilessly publish The entire editorial department was killed to beg forgiveness.

The second is Gibson’s agency—William Morris Endeavor Brokerage, which is already nervous from the boss to the employees. They didn’t expect that Gibson would make such remarks while drunk, and insult a Hollywood producer face to face. The boss of the company.The boss of the firm called Michael Bay immediately, hoping to get in touch with Jed from Bei, so as to apologize to Jed on behalf of the company. In addition, the public relations department of the firm has already begun to write a statement, trying to get himself out of the entertainment as soon as possible. Picked up in the storm.

In the end, even Columbia Pictures was alarmed, because Mel Gibson represented Columbia Pictures' film "Ransom" at the Oscars.Although Sony Pictures Entertainment Group wishes for Jed to be unlucky, they still know that the consequences of insulting a person and discriminating against a vulnerable group in the United States will be very serious. From Sony Pictures to Columbia Pictures, the statement has been written, and I will give it to the relevant people The news unit sent it over.

Although it was less than ten minutes since Mel Gibson uttered his words, the entire Los Angeles radio program began to comment on this matter, and soon the San Francisco radio program also participated, followed by California TV stations and even national TV stations. They all started broadcasting this infuriating insult.

Jed’s personal secretary, John, was interviewed by reporters in front of the Sherman mansion, and said, “Mr. Jed Sherman was shocked and angry at Mel Gibson’s remarks. He will not choose to reconcile with Mr. Gibson. We A report has been made to the police. We believe Mr. Gibson's remarks have committed a 'hate crime' and 'insulting crime', and we hope that the Los Angeles Police and the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office will take this incident seriously."

John's righteous and stern expression soon appeared in front of audiences across the country, and the whole thing began to ferment, and gay and anti-gay organizations continued to join in.Those who support it call for Mel Gibson to be sent to prison for self-reflection, but those who oppose it say that Mel Gibson is a saint who was sent by God to prevent the spread of the "plague".

Seeing anti-gay activists holding up the banner of God against homosexuality, Jed sneered and said, "Fortunately, I don't believe in God!"

Jed's cold response quickly made headlines, but Jed and Galaxy Movies have since declined to comment.The Los Angeles police have taken Gibson away for investigation at this time. The Los Angeles District Attorney said that Gibson is unlikely to be convicted of a hate crime.As soon as the prosecutor's remarks came out, the California Republican organization immediately found that at least eight foundations announced that they would no longer support the Republican Party within the last five years.

John also only issued a statement on behalf of Jed, with only a few words on it, "Even if I am the only one left, I will not give up suing Mr. Mel Gibson. Yes, this is the beginning of the war!"

After the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office dropped the prosecution of Mel Gibson, several legal teams represented Jed Sherman, the Los Angeles Gay Equality Organization and the California Gay Equality Association in the Los Angeles District Court.At this time, even a fool can see that Jed is already planning to tear up his face and send Gibson to prison.

At this time, some Madonnaists said, "Mr. Gibson is such a helpless person, he is about to be sent to prison by a powerful capitalist! Doesn't Mr. Jed Sherman know what 'love' is?" Doesn’t he know that a famous writer in his mother’s country——Ms. Qiong Yao said, ‘Forgiveness is the greatest virtue of mankind’? I feel like my heart is about to break. On this day, we are all Mel Gibson!”

"Yes, I plan to implement these special effects in the next movie." Jed had rarely worried about Mel Gibson, but invited some professors from Southern University and experts from Industrial Light & Magic to his office for a meeting.Jed shamelessly named himself the visual effects director of the "Face Changing" movie, coupled with his original job as a screenwriter, it made Wu Yusen a little dumbfounded.Jed has made major changes to the script of "Face Changing" in this time and space. The story will start with a school hijacking case, which alludes to the "Minsk Kidnapping Case" that will happen in Russia in the future.Due to the FBI's improper handling, many students and faculty members died in this campus kidnapping case. Under pressure, the FBI decided to launch the "face-changing plan".It will let the police officer Castor Troy put on the face of the gangster Sean Archer, sneak into the gang to explore their next plan.But what the FBI didn't expect was that Sean Archer woke up after the operation, forced the staff of the FBI laboratory to change his face into Castor Troy, and then killed the entire "face-changing project" Insider. "We will put the key scene of the story in New York. At one-third of the story, terrorists will make a subway bombing. Because of this bombing, Archer completely blamed the new police officer Troy." On Archer. While being rounded up by the FBI and the New York police, Troy learned that Archer's organization was going to hijack a plane and crash into the World Trade Center. However, the information sent by Troy was considered to be a trick of the terrorists, so two United Airlines planes Hit the twin towers of the World Trade Center.——What we have to do now is, first, design a campus kidnapping case, I need a very professional one; second, we have to design a New York subway bombing case, I want It is very real, and it is absolutely achievable; third, the plane hits the building, and the two buildings of the World Trade Center, I want a very realistic impact and a very realistic collapse. Everyone, budget is not a problem, what I want is reality.”

When Jed lost three heinous horror cases in the movie, when Jia Fei saw the script for the first time, he thought that his boss was going to change careers to become an anti-American vanguard. "Stanley (Jafei's name), do you think these things won't happen?"

"How is it possible?" Jia Fei said with a smile.In fact, not only Jia Fei, but even the criminologists at Southern California University think that Jed is making a fuss over a molehill. In the eyes of Americans, the two world wars are nothing more than the bombing of Pearl Harbor, which is still far away from the mainland of the United States.Since regular armies like Germany and Japan have nothing to do, what are terrorists?It's just that since Jade has spent money, it is inevitable that these people still have to study how to truly reflect it.It's just that as the research progressed, everyone found that what Jed proposed was actually very likely to be realized.

However, Jed did not explain whether this is to warn the US government or for other reasons. He is designing the props that will appear in "Face Changing".According to Jade's setting, the story of "Face Changing" will take place around 2020, so ultra-thin mobile phones and portable computers will become popular, especially technologies such as motion capture, which will amaze the designers of Industrial Light and Magic.

"You have been busy with a lot of things in Wu Yusen's crew recently, what about your own movie?" Jia Fei had to come forward to remind Jed.Although Wu Yusen has no objection to Jed's temporary visual effects, it is clear that Jed's behavior has gone too far.It's just that Wu Yusen had to bear it because Jade was his boss, but Jia Fei had to remind Jed. "Didn't you say that you plan to make a sci-fi movie? Why haven't you seen your script yet? If you don't make it, you won't be able to catch up with the summer vacation."

While Jed and Jia Fei were chatting, a phone finally rang. After Jed answered, he said with a smile, "I finally got the authorization, and the script will be given to you this afternoon."

"Have you been writing scripts and waiting for authorization?" Jia Fei glared at Jed, "It's too risky! What kind of work?"

"Men in Black" by Lowell Cunningham under Marvel Comics." Jed said with a smile.

Jia Fei recalled that "Men in Black" had already been shown on TV and animation, so Jia Fei had some impressions of this work. "It's a very interesting work, but how did you come up with the idea of ​​adapting this work?"

"Don't worry about my reasons, I have news that Disney intends to acquire Marvel Comics." Jed threw out a news that shocked Jia Fei. "The executives of Marvel Comics intend to form a company called Marvel Entertainment with Disney Pictures. Marvel Entertainment will wholly own Marvel Comics, and at the same time authorize Disney to produce a series of Marvel live-action movies in the future. Of course, this is just It’s just the intention of Disney and Marvel. In addition, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Pictures are also very close, and a merger is very likely.”

Jia Fei frowned when he heard the news. Superhero movies are a type of American genre, and they have always had a huge commercial market.Because this kind of movie can not only be sought after by comic fans, but also satisfy the American dream of a free world leader, so when DC Comics and Marvel Comics will belong to Disney and Warner respectively, it will not be a good thing for other film companies.Of course, in order to avoid anti-monopoly lawsuits, future DC and Marvel may authorize some works to be shot by other film companies, but top superheroes such as Superman, Batman, and Spiderman are bound to not authorize them.

Jia Fei thought for a while, "Is there any way we can stop it? If we can't stop it, at least get involved?"

"Do you still need to say?" Jed smiled, "I have asked Dongfeng TV Entertainment Group and Galaxy Film Entertainment Group to acquire the shares of DC Comics and Marvel Comics in the market respectively, and I will not hand over my fate To someone else's hands. — By the way, if there is no problem, I will start to form a crew to shoot "Men in Black" tomorrow."
