268-The Care of the Good Man

The Rolls-Royce Silver Spurs drove smoothly towards Beverly, and Nina in the car threw the missing person notice that had been rampant during this period of time aside.

Wayne can put all his thoughts on the post-production of "Batman: The Moment of War", but Nina has been paying attention to the fermentation of this matter. Now the legend about witches has become very popular without realizing it.

Jimmy was supposed to be communicating with this investment plan like his own boss, but during this time, the agent was joining his colleagues to register a new brokerage company and rent an office space, which fell on Nina again.

The assistant lady knew that her boss could not care about subsequent development. Just invest money. She had to pay attention to the direction of things. If she invested hundreds of millions of dollars, she had to see enough profits.

Moreover, she has never been very worried about the fat man Harvey Weinstein. This big Jewish fat man has a bad reputation in the circle, and his evaluations are always half good and half bad.

This fat man has a sharp vision and is definitely the kind of bastard who can keep the bottom line at the lowest for the benefit of his own film, but he can keep giving new director opportunities, just like Quentin Tarantino who is proud of himself.

In terms of the other party's attitude towards actresses, especially young actors who have not yet become famous, their attitude is like another person, who is an absolute tyrant or a non-credit bastard. There has never been a lot of news about him.

In Nina's heart, when compared with the other party, her boss became a good man who could do what he said, at least he did not play with women by deception and power.

"Where is Nami? Already boarded the plane?"

After opening the car refrigerator, Wayne took out a bottle of lemonade, looked up and took a big sip, frowned and asked about the Australian girl.

Nina nodded and said, "If there were no delays in the flight, it should have arrived in Australia now."

After a while, as long as the post-production of "Batman: The Moment of War" is completed, after the preview, a non-stop pre-screening promotional event will be launched. As the hot Hollywood actress now, Naomi Watts will not have to rest for long and will carry out frequent promotional activities under the arrangement of Warner Bros.

So this Australian beauty took advantage of the time she had free time and took a plane back to Australia to accompany her family.

This also gave Wayne a headache. As soon as Naomi Watts got on the plane, Warner Brothers' old partner John Gray called Nina and informed him that there would be a cocktail party in the evening, and it would be best if he could attend.

Generally, for formal cocktail parties like this, everyone will bring a formal female companion. This is not a carnival party, but a high-end cocktail party that tends to be in the upper class.

"Do you want me to call Bella Grant for you?"

The assistant lady understood what he was thinking, so she took the initiative to take out the phone book and mobile phone from her bag and prepared to help him find a female companion temporarily.

"Forget it." Wayne shook his head. "It would be better for the two of us to go by ourselves. If it weren't for the Oscars, I would rather stay in the manor and walk my dog."

Nina shrugged and put away the things she took out. As long as her boss doesn't care, she won't care. At worst, she won't take a female companion. Anyway, no one will win without a wink to pick on their rudeness.

Originally, Wayne never wanted to attend such a cocktail party, but he still had some ideas about Oscars and had plans to make temporary changes.

He definitely didn't have hope for this year's award ceremony, but it's hard to say what happened next. Since the company wants to pave the way for him and introduce him to a few college bosses, he just went to get familiar with him and did early work for future votes.

After the car drove into Greenberg Manor, Wayne quickly took a shower and changed his clothes, got in the car and left the manor. Before it was dark, he arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly.

As soon as the car stopped, the hotel doorman opened the car door for him. After he took Nina into the hotel lobby, he saw Jeff Robinoff at a glance. It was obvious that Warner Brothers Ceo was waiting for him.

"How is the post-work? Everything is going well, right?"

The two of them said hello and asked Jeff Robinoff after entering the elevator.

"Everything went smoothly." Nodded, Wayne calculated the approximate progress in his mind. "If nothing unexpected happens, all the work of the film will be completed around April, and the latest will not exceed mid-April, and it will definitely not delay the film's preview."

The elevator stopped on the 17th floor with a "ding" sound. As the two walked out, Jeff Robinoff said, "It's all going well. The cocktail party has begun. I'll introduce you to a few old guys from the academy."

There were people coming and going in the banquet hall on the 17th floor of the hotel. Almost all participants were wearing formal clothes and holding wine glasses and talking politely to each other. The waiter was carrying wine trays, constantly shuttled between these successful people.

Since Wayne and his friends entered the cocktail party, they immediately attracted more than one eye. Even though the visitors here have achieved certain achievements in the circle, they still stared at the young man at the same time.

"It seems that Warner Brothers have very high expectations for him. The director seems to have an idea for the academic award."

Tom Cruise held a glass of champagne, looked at Warner Bros. Ceo and Wayne, constantly introducing various big shots in the circle to him, and sighed to his agent Pat Kingsley.

"According to the news that has been circulating in the circle," Pat Kingsley was also observing the other party. "At least one-third to half of Warner Bros.'s revenue figures are related to his works. Also, it is said that Wayne Greenberg owns more than five percent of Warner Bros. shares!"

“What?!”

Before the superstar husband could speak, Nicole Kidman turned his head in surprise when he heard the number and looked at the agent.

Pat Kingsley shrugged. She had her own information channel. Even if the number was not accurate, it would not be much different. She looked at the people around her and continued in a low voice:

"You heard it right. Even if Wayne Greenberg has not bought the shares for a long time, the investment income should have risen a lot. Warner Bros.'s stock price has been rising steadily this year. Even if he doesn't count his other wealth, just this part of the shares, he is already one of the richest people in the circle."

She hasn't said some things yet. Judging from the current momentum, as long as the other party's "Batman: The War Moment" can be successful as usual in the summer season, Warner Bros.'s stock price will definitely soar again.

Celebrities and directors in Hollywood almost do not believe in the financial market. They would rather invest in art than the stock market. But no matter whether the other party is willing to do this or not, this vision and decisiveness are stronger than 90% of the people in the circle.

Nicole Kidman looked over there with a complicated look. He can still remember what the other party said when he refused him that day.

She glanced at Tom Cruise and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her superstar husband didn't know about this, so Pat Kingsley didn't talk much. Otherwise, with his scruples, there would definitely be endless quarrels again.

Not far from them, two new forces in Hollywood, DreamWorks bosses, were also observing Jeff Robinoff and others.

"Steven, are you really going to do this?"

Looking at the young man, Jeffrey Carsonberg took a sip of champagne and asked the old guy beside him softly.

Steven Spielberg nodded and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "We need a big box office win! And this young man is the most suitable candidate now."

The three giants of DreamWorks gathered together, and their purpose was not to build a small and medium-sized film company. All three had huge ambitions and wanted to become the seventh giant in Hollywood.

But Jeffrey Carsonberg's animation department has a very long film production cycle. Although the profitability of animated feature films is amazing, the production cost and time are also much more expensive than live-action movies.

The only thing that can make the sign up as soon as possible is Stephen Spielberg's live-action film department. If Wayne Greenberg can be invited, it will undoubtedly be the best way to ensure success rate and box office.

"It's hard, Steven." Jeffrey Carsonberg shook his wine glass and turned his head to look at each other seriously. "I think it's better not to have too much hope. Neither Warner Brothers nor the young man will agree to your invitation easily. He is not a young director who wants to seek a chance to succeed."

In fact, in his heart, he also felt that being able to invite that young man was the fastest and best way, but the possibility of this matter was almost zero. The three bosses knew the change in the attitude of the six giants towards them, but unless they were willing to give up their ambitions and be a content production company with peace of mind.

This is absolutely impossible. They will not give up their original intention of establishing DreamWorks. And that young man, strictly speaking, is also one of the bosses of Warner Bros. Naturally, he has a different position from them. How could he watch DreamWorks rise?

Many people in the circle know that Wayne Greenberg is definitely not easy to mess with. In addition, it is good if the other party doesn't take action to suppress them. Now it's too difficult to let the other party shoot a movie for DreamWorks.

Thinking of this, Jeffrey Carsonberg continued: "I think you will be more confident of success when you take the shot yourself."

"No." Steven Spielberg shook his head. "If you want a box office bomb, the younger generation among us "our own people" is the best choice. His production style is naturally suitable for this project. In this kind of R-level film, even I can't compare with him."

After saying that, he saw that the crowd surrounding the other party had dispersed, and he had obviously known everyone he should know. "Let's go and talk to that young man, hoping that my chips can impress him."
