Entertainment 2000: Supporting female stars will bring you a hundredfold return

Chapter 254 You blond-haired, blue-eyed thing, you're lusting after my body too?!

"Charlize Theron is renovating an underground gym?"

Tang Wen was slightly surprised when he received the call.

Housekeeper: "I took a picture and sent it to your email."

"Okay, if it's just the gym, then don't interfere."

It's just a gym.

It's full of lumps of iron inside; if she can break them, it doesn't matter.

Not to mention the happiness she brought to Tang Wen.

The future cashback rewards alone could easily reach hundreds of millions.

It has to be in US dollars.

After all, Charlize Theron is now a second-tier actress.

Moreover, it belongs to the lower end of the second tier.

Once she becomes an Oscar-winning actress, she will definitely rise to a higher level.

Tang Wen asked someone to bring him a computer, logged into his email, and glanced at the photos.

The gym was a mess, like something was being installed.

He didn't pay attention and continued filming.

With the release of "Saw 2" imminent, Robert Arsenal arranged for reporters to conduct interviews everywhere.

The interviewees included celebrities he knew and actors he had worked with.

Those who have worked with Tang Wen need no further introduction; they are naturally full of praise.

Tom Cruise in an interview:
"Tang is a director I greatly admire!"
I've been a fan of his ever since his first film, "Coherence".

He is still a fan of his books and songs.

I'm planning to rent out the entire theater for my staff and family to see Saw 2.

Tom Cruise has remained a Hollywood icon for decades and is a global sensation.

They are masters of interpersonal relationships and social skills.

Tang Wen's rise was extremely rapid.

Each film's box office performance surpasses the last.

Of course, it's important to maintain good relationships.

Tom Cross has a huge influence; this year, his science fiction film "Minority Report" grossed $3.85 million worldwide.

He maintained his superstar status after Mission: Impossible.

Vanilla Sky won the Saturn Award for Best Actor.

There have also been breakthroughs in arts and cultural awards.

Galaxy Entertainment staff saw the report and informed Tang Wen.

He had Liang Tang's contact information and called directly to exchange pleasantries and express his gratitude.

Tom Cruise said in a cheerful voice, "You're welcome, Tom. I hope we'll have the opportunity to work together in the future."

"No problem, which Hollywood director wouldn't want to work with you?"

Tang Wen said that he would definitely make time to come to the celebration party for "Saw 2".

"Okay, I'll wait for your invitation."

After chatting with Tang, Tang made several more phone calls to thank other celebrity friends who spoke out.

Finally, I chatted with Scarlett for a while.

As a female celebrity who had a semi-public relationship with Tang Wen, she was harassed by many reporters when Tang Wen and Charlize Theron were rumored to be dating.

They asked for opinions on Tang Wen and Theron.

Scarlett is a veteran actress, so dealing with reporters is no problem for her. Her new movie also needs buzz, so she adopted a cold demeanor during the interview.

He looked like he was jealous of Charlize Theron.

It attracted considerable media attention.

After comforting Scarlett, Tang Wen finished filming for the day and announced a two-day holiday.

Tomorrow is the premiere of "Saw 2".

As a director, he's bound to be busy.

After the actors changed their costumes, Tang Wen led several main actors to the Disney reception room for an interview with reporters.

Depp: "Don is a very talented director! Our filming went very smoothly."

“That’s right, and Director Tang Wen is the most handsome director I’ve ever met,” Kayla replied.

The three chatted about the daily life on set.

The film crew is on holiday, but the three lead actors can't rest. They have to appear on a talk show arranged by Disney to keep the film crew in the spotlight.

Tang Wen returned to Galaxy Entertainment and worked until dark.

After having dinner with Robert, we returned to Beverly Hills.

"Awaited."

Theron wasn't the type to act like a little girl, and Tang Wen didn't apologize. He simply took out a gold bracelet and put it on her wrist.

"Thank you, I'm not angry." Theron smiled.

As a woman, who doesn't want to be pampered?

You can just take that with a grain of salt.

After the gift was presented, Tang Wen asked, "I heard you prepared a surprise for me?"

"That's right. It's a bit special, I hope it doesn't scare you."

Tang Wen glanced at her speechlessly: "It's just a renovation of the gym, isn't it?"

And the way you're talking, are you treating me like a child?
Who was the one crying and calling "Dad" last night?

If you don't understand it in your heart, then what about below?

"I'm sorry, your appearance is too deceptive. Every time I see you, it's like seeing my high school crush."

Tang Wen, being Chinese, was very young in her eyes.

Calling them high school students wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Hearing her words, Tang Wen seemed to understand something: "No wonder Sophie was so proactive towards me. Could it be that she also sees me as her high school crush?"

Theron raised her delicate eyebrows: "That French woman, Sophie Marceau?"

"Ah."

"She debuted at 14, so she probably didn't even finish high school. She definitely didn't have any crushes."

She had followed Sophie Marceau.

Sensing a hint of jealousy, Tang Wen stepped forward and kissed her, then stopped talking.

Smelling her fragrance, Tang Wen's heart stirred. He wanted to go back to his room to take a shower and change his clothes, but Theron grabbed his wrist.

"Ok?"

The blonde, mature woman's exquisite face was magnified before me.

"Sniff," Theron sniffed, taking in Tang Wen's scent.

"No need to wash it. You haven't been messing around with women outside. I'm very satisfied with this suit." After saying that, she somewhat forcefully pulled Tang Wen and walked towards the underground gym.

What does it mean to not mess around?

I'm filming a movie outside, okay?

Upon arriving at the gym and seeing the equipment in the room, Tang Wen couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Braces, whips, rings, seats that fix the body position...

"You actually have this kind of hobby?"

"No, I didn't."

"No? Then who are you making all this for?" Tang Wen felt a chill run down his spine.

Theron explained, "I woke up today and realized I was wrong."

The time I spent with you was so joyful and passionate.

I don't need to worry about my negative feelings anymore. But...

Tang Wen looked at her without saying a word, a vague guess forming in his mind.

Charlize Theron raised her hand and stroked Tang Wen's face: "But I'm going to play a female villain next. She's a prostitute who hates men terribly. If I continue to spend time with you, I'll start to fall in love with you. I simply can't portray this state when I join the cast."

"So, you're planning to have me use these props to torture, uh, help you get into character?"

"Yes."

A strange feeling arose in Tang Wen's heart: No, what's wrong with your thought process?

As for getting into character, just try to find the right feeling during filming.

What else are you afraid of falling in love with me? Won't you leave?
Is it really necessary to do all this?
He was thinking randomly.

Theron stepped forward and unbuttoned his shirt.

He stroked the well-defined muscles.

A hint of infatuation flashed in her light green eyes.

Tang Wen saw this and chuckled to himself: Well, so it turns out he just wants my body.

But in any case, Director Tang, who is always willing to help others and has an exceptional ability to train actresses, would not refuse such a good opportunity.

"I'm fine, but I'm afraid I might hurt you."

Seron understood what Tang Wen meant.

He investigated without any sense of proportion.

With so many props prepared, I could easily hurt myself if I'm not careful.

"Yes, you need to be more careful about that. I've always been in good health, as you know, I have many years of ballet training."

As she spoke, Theron suddenly kicked her leg and easily did a vertical split.

Her thin, snow-white trousers were taut and immediately caught Tang Wen's eye.

A new "posture"!

Why are you being so polite?

"Snapped!"

Tang Wen casually lashed out with his whip...

It has the added benefit of props.

In addition, it was agreed beforehand that no matter how much Theron begged for mercy, she would not be let go.

A night of intense pleasure.

As dawn broke, he carried the nearly unconscious Theron back to the bedroom.

"Woman, we'll continue tomorrow."

Hearing this while still half asleep, Theron shivered and instinctively pulled the blanket over herself.

Tang Wen took a nap and arrived at the company feeling refreshed.

There is a consensus in Hollywood that "Saw 2" will be a success.

But they want to surpass the first film's $2.94 million.

Industry insiders are not optimistic.

Before the release of the first film, Tang Wen organized a unique flash mob event.

Media outlets across North America rushed to report on it.

This inadvertently boosted the popularity of "Saw 1," attracting many people who were not originally interested in horror movies to the theaters.

Nowadays, "Saw 2" doesn't have such a sensational promotional campaign, making it difficult to achieve widespread recognition.

Hollywood box office prediction companies predict a strong opening followed by a steady rise.

Ultimately, the global box office will not exceed two hundred million US dollars.

Experts predict that the final price will be between US$1.6 million and US$1.7 million.

After watching it, Robert passionately launched into a tirade, calling it utter garbage!
Although the box office of $1.6 million represents a return on investment of several dozen times.

But as a film businessman, he was greedy.

They not only hope that the box office will surpass that of the previous film, but even hope that it will break through 300 million or 400 million.

Tang Wen, however, thought that the prediction company was quite capable.

In the original timeline, the box office performance of Saw 2 was indeed quite close to their predictions.

Night falls.

Saw 2 has been officially released.

There are 4000 screens when the video starts playing.

It has more screens than many family-friendly movies.

Robert was both frustrated and expectant: "I really hope to know the result soon."

Irritability is contagious.

Even Tang Wen, who was originally very calm, was stirred up by the emotions within him.

Too lazy to argue with him, Tang Wen got up, put on his coat, and went outside.

Hey! Where are you going?

"go home."

“What’s so great about going home? How about we call in some models?” Robert was looking for some fun.

Tang Wen turned around and smiled: "Theron is staying at my house. She's the best model."

I'd be stupid to spend money on some random stuff.

"Holy shit!"

Robert raised two middle fingers.

Unfortunately, Tang Wen opened the door and went out, and could no longer see it.

"I thought you weren't coming back tonight," Theron said with a hint of resentment.

Tang Wen avoided her gaze, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

I had so much fun yesterday.

They really tormented this blonde, mature woman.

Fortunately, the props she had carefully prepared had limited power.

It won't leave any scars.

The quality is also good, and no accidents occurred while playing with it.

"Continue today?" Tang Wen hugged her supple waist from behind.

Theron's hoarse voice carried a hint of surprise: "The housekeeper said you didn't get much sleep and left early this morning. Are you alright now?"

What a word!

Tang Wen half-pinched and half-hugged her with both hands, and amidst her exclamation, he picked her up and carried her on his shoulder.

Like a bandit leader who has kidnapped a bride, carrying her all the way to an underground gym.

After closing the door, placing Theron on a seat with his head lower than his tail, handcuffing him, and lighting a low-temperature candle...

As an investigation expert.

He knew that a chance had fallen from the sky...

The next day.

Tang Wen was awakened by a phone call while embracing a beautiful woman.

Theron in his arms didn't open her eyes at all and was still sleeping soundly.

She was exhausted and needed a lot of sleep.

"The box office figures are out?" Tang Wen touched the red marks on his fair skin twice.

Robert on the other end of the phone hesitated and didn't speak.

"The box office is not as good as expected?" Tang Wen sensed something was wrong.

“Hmm, $2093 million!” Robert said gravely. “Not as much as the first movie’s $2161 million.”

Wow, it's over 20 million.

Tang Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's impossible to surpass the previous work every time.

He is not a god.

"Don't be too disappointed, buddy. You've done a great job! You're the best director in Hollywood," Robert said, trying to comfort him.

"I think it's alright, let's see how it goes."

hang up the phone.

Tang Wen checked his watch; it was not yet 10 a.m.

He unusually took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and started smoking.

He smokes occasionally, but only on special occasions will he remember to light one up and enjoy the aftertaste.

Right now, I'm feeling a bit down.

Looking at the woman beside him, who was still fast asleep and completely unaware of what was happening, Tang Wen decided to start causing trouble again.

after one day.

Theron wanted to escape: "I think I've found my rhythm. I don't need to stay any longer."

She had a beautiful face, but noticeable dark circles under her eyes, and her hand was always on her lower back when she spoke.

"It's only been a few days? I think you need to solidify your senses a bit."

"No, I don't need it." Theron's gait became unnatural.

Tang Wen became more and more open.

She didn't dare to think about what would happen if things continued like this.

"You can't get too caught up in this; it's easy to get into trouble," Theron warned.

Tang Wen didn't think he would become addicted, but he readily agreed: "Okay, you can take those props with you later."

"Just throw it away, throw it far away." Theron didn't want to take it back.

Otherwise, if Tang Wen goes to her house and sees this one day, she will be the one who suffers.

"I'll arrange for the housekeeper to take care of it right away." Tang Wen continued to persuade, "How about staying another night? Let me show you my gentleness."

“Then I’ll stay another night.” Theron agreed without hesitation.

For her, Tang Wen's gentleness was an unparalleled temptation.

When Theron was young, she witnessed her mother shoot and kill her father, who was about to commit violence after drinking, in self-defense.

This made her very distrustful of relationships between men and women.

But she also longs for a loving partner.

This led to her being a kept man in her past life, living off him for a long time.

Later, after a series of failed relationships, she adopted a child while remaining single.

In short, due to childhood experiences.

Charlize Theron appears to be a very strong woman.

The same applies to one's inner self.

But in the past few days, Tang Wen's intensity has destroyed its tough outer shell.

We are currently in a rare and vulnerable phase.

The box office figures for "Saw 2" came out on the second day – $2479 million.

This figure has caused an uproar in the industry.

Robert was not satisfied; it didn't earn as much as the first film's $2569 million.

With Theron's help, Tang Wen released his pent-up frustration and felt that the box office was doing well.

A total of 4572 million were recorded in two days.

It has a very good reputation.

With the help of online trolls, it can continuously attract people interested in horror movies.

"What are you thinking about?"

After a passionate and intense encounter.

Theron, who appears strong on the outside, softens her demeanor.

Looking at her blonde hair, damp and clinging to her ears, with a light in her eyes.

The experienced Tang Wen understood that he had once again entered her heart.

He knew that feeling all too well.

As long as he deliberately restrains himself afterward, he doesn't let anyone fall asleep from exhaustion.

Their eyes usually sparkle with stars.

Yes, remember that.

In the future, when they are jealous of each other, you can try to take a shortcut to enter their hearts.

It should have a remarkable effect.

Tang Wen didn't speak.

Charlize Theron began to comfort himself, saying, "Saw 2 is already amazing, with revenues dozens of times higher. No one but you could have achieved that."

Afraid that Tang Wen would be unhappy because the box office hadn't surpassed the first film, she dragged her tired body and lit another cigarette.

Tang Wen stroked her soft blonde hair: "You're joining the crew tomorrow."

“Hmm,” Theron thought of this too, and began to feel uncomfortable: “You’d better not come to see me.”

This character is too ugly.

Tang Wen understood her concerns: "I don't want to shatter the perfect image I have of you."

Charlize Theron smiled slightly, finding the man before her to be so perfect, but couldn't help but probe, "After filming is finished, let's aim for the Oscars together."

"it is good."

After hesitating for a moment, Theron still said, "If there are any particularly influential male judges that you need me to help you with, you can let me know."

The meaning is clear: she is willing to make sacrifices.

But this was a test, and after she finished speaking, Theron's heart skipped a beat.

She had a conflicted feeling.

She understands that men are unreliable, yet she can't help but feel hopeful.

Having found hope, they then tried to test people's hearts with offers of benefits.

How can people's hearts withstand the temptation of profit?

Reason told her:
Don't be silly!
Tang Wen will definitely agree to send you without hesitation.

He's just playing with you, don't get involved...
