The sky in Angel City gradually darkened. At this time, in an office in Warner Bros., several senior executives were sitting around the sofa in the lounge area. The atmosphere was quite dull and no one spoke. Some people, including Wayne, silently picked up coffee cups, while others were enjoying the cigar with their eyes closed.

"You have seen the situation, make a decision."

Seeing the colorful lights lights starting to light outside the window, Jeff Robinoff spoke and broke the dull atmosphere. "Wayne, I will ask the company to issue a statement tomorrow morning, call the crew back as soon as possible and take the camera again. There are not many real things in the reports, if the speed is fast..."

Everyone present understood that even if it was delayed for a long time, it was the best solution. The film would definitely not work, because there were indeed several plots, exactly the same as the leaked script.

"Wait for two more days."

After a few seconds, Wayne opened his eyes and replied in a low voice. "The statement that Warner Brothers should have sent has been posted a long time ago. I haven't thought about some things clearly. Even if some shots have to be re-shooted, then there will be no hurry to do this or two days. Some things have to be thought about, and it will be too late to do it."

It is indeed not a hurry to call back the crew members and go to New York to reshoot some shots, it will definitely not be possible in a short time. This means that Wayne will just miss the entire awards season.

The so-called Hollywood Awards Season is actually a comprehensive honor assessment of the films released at the end of the year, and it is also a big drama that North American audiences like to watch at the end of the year.

As the end of the year approaches, major awards and review activities in North America have begun to be released one after another, bringing the masterpieces released this year back to the public. The number of awards of various sizes and large and small amounts of intervals has gradually formed the so-called awards season.

In a narrow sense, it refers to various film awards held from the end of December to March of the following year. For example, the Gotham Independent Film Award, the Golden Satellite Award, the Anne Award and other awards. The Trade Union Association Awards for film practitioners in the circle such as the producer union, the Actors Union, the Director union, etc.

Until the final ended with the awarding of the Golden Globes and Academy Awards, this rough process was what people called the Academy Awards Season.

In a broad sense, if you want to gain something at the latest and most important Academy Awards, in fact, after the current awards season, you need to carry out prepared public relations and award-winning actions, especially those outpost awards and weather vane awards that have a great impact on the Oscars.

For example, the North American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, the British Film Academy Awards, the North American Actors Union Awards and the Critics Choice Awards, which are the winners of these Wind Vane Awards, which can effectively improve the popularity of the film and have almost become a necessary step to win awards.

For example, the North American Critics Association Award, the New York Film Critics Association Award, the North American Film Critics Association Award, and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award, these four outpost awards closely related to film critics represent the professional evaluation of the film. Many members of the college with voting rights will be affected by the four outpost awards.

If the above four major weather vanes and four major outpost awards can be influenced by various public relations lobbying, what Wayne doesn't want to miss the most is the number of more than twenty internal union awards. How well the film performs in these internal union awards can tell in advance whether it can win at the Oscars.

Things are not complicated, because voters of internal awards from major guilds are likely to be members of the academy who have voting rights, and the overlap between the two is quite high.

Therefore, people say that the Golden Globe Award, which has the greatest influence on Oscars, seems to represent the role of the Oscar outpost, actually has the impact on the Oscar selection results as people imagine. It can even be said that the two are completely selected by two different groups.

Faced with Wayne's request to wait for another two days and continue to observe, Warner Bros. executives all agreed. In the thoughts of Jeff Robinoff and others, they regarded this as his last stubbornness, and in fact, they had to choose to call the crew to reshoot it.

At the same time, he also specifically notified the relevant staff of "Dark Knight" to temporarily stop any post-work in the past two days, and everything is waiting for his notification to take action.

Early the next morning, a statement appeared at the same time, including the print media under Warner Bros. and the authoritative media with good relations with Warner Bros.

"Warner Brothers noticed the plot reports about "The Dark Knight" that appeared in the media recently. Here we make a special statement that all the so-called reports on the market are false speculations. The plot of "The Dark Knight" has not been leaked. The film has officially entered the post-production work and will start next summer to meet the majority of movie fans on time.

Director Greenberg calls on the kind-hearted movie fans not to believe so-called rumors and rumor, all of which are unreasonable speculations and not to be deceived and fooled by those who are interested. "The Dark Knight" has never disclosed any specific plot information to the outside world.

Director Greenberg said after seeing these reports that if movie fans want to learn more about "Batman", they believe that these tricks to deceive children are far better than watching the comics well, and at least they can pay tribute to their childhood..."

After waiting for a whole day, Warner Bros. made a routine reaction, which was beyond the expectations of many people. However, in the face of the statement given by Warner Bros., people in the circle actually disagreed.

This summer, Warner Bros. became the biggest winner. It is obvious that this year's performance will continue to rank first among Hollywood film companies. Because of this, I don't know how many film companies are waiting to see Warner Bros. unlucky.

For the majority of movie fans, this statement is not as credible as expected. Instead, it has become the focus of discussion in the media. Some media with keen sense of smell have quickly divided into two factions and have begun endless debates on the authenticity of leaked content.

At noon that day, some local TV and radio stations analyzed the authenticity of the plot of the film "Dark Knight". The media, which was not serious, even started street interviews and directly began to collect opinions from passers-by fans. For a time, "Dark Knight" became the center of public opinion.

Things are still fermenting. As time goes by, there is a vague momentum to suppress certain awards after the awards season, which makes many people sigh that the influence of superhero films is so great.

In a few days, some participants in the crew called Wayne to inquire, and everyone expressed their concern and concern for "The Dark Knight". After all, this video carries the hopes of all staff members, and no one wants to see any accidents in the film.

Three days later, just as Wayne was about to accept Warner Bros.'s urging and wanted to urgently recall all the crew members, some different voices appeared in the media.

"I am an African, a black man who has become a big star in Hollywood." In an entertainment program on ABC TV, an interview with Will Smith was broadcasting live on the TV screen. It can be seen that he is quite serious and formal, wearing a straight suit and talking to the reporter's microphone.

“I have many black friends, fellow countrymen and family members who have asked me more than once, why, as a person of color, can be good brothers with people like Wayne Greenberg. It wasn’t until one time when I got annoyed by them that I told them the real reason.

When I was just a rapper and was an unpopular little person in Hollywood, the film industry faced me, an African-Amateur actor, and no one even gave me the opportunity to prove myself. Yes, I walked into the audition room with a try-out mentality. Yes, it was the audition room that selected the male lead for "Escape from the Deadly Town".

I thought I would get a strange look, but I didn't expect that even if Wayne Greenberg knew that I was a hip-hop singer, he still gave me fair, just, and the same acting opportunities as other actors. As a result, you all know that I got the role that allowed me to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood, and because of the great success of "Escape from the Deadly Town", I completely opened up the path of actors.

Actually, there are some things I have never told the media over the years that after the filming of the movie, Wayne Greenberg solemnly encouraged me and said to me, "You are very talented in performance. Will, don't give up, believe me, work hard, you will become a big star in the future!"

Speaking of this, Will Smith shrugged at the camera and continued, "From then on, I have regarded Wayne as a brother. As a result, you have seen it, didn't you? I really became a big star in a few years. The reason why I accepted this interview today is to tell those who have ulterior motives that you should not destroy a good person with noble character and the results of working hard for several months because of dark thoughts!"

He deliberately aggravated his tone on the words "good man" and "noble character". At the same time, this interview was spread to countless family TVs in North America along with the live broadcast of ABC TV.

Finally, Will Smith sorted out his tie in the face of the camera and called out seriously: "My fans, fans, and my African-American friends, please ignore all the speculations about "The Dark Knight" in the media. Director Greenberg is a great film worker. His hard work and noble character are worth going to the theater next year to watch the doomed wonderful "The Dark Knight". No matter whether that movie has anything to do with the information leaked now!"

The live interview came very suddenly. Will Smith did not say hello to Wayne beforehand. With the explosive popularity of this big black star, the popularity of the whole thing instantly reached its peak.

However, many people in Wayne, Warner Bros. and the lively circle were surprised that they were not finished yet. Will Smith's statement was like the beginning, and the direction of the future development was beyond everyone's expectations...
