556 - Arrogance or self-confidence?
In the lounge on the second floor of the Washington DC Cinema, the interview with Wayne continued, especially when he spoke about death, tax payment and the success rate of Wayne's movie, a very bright light suddenly burst into the female reporter's eyes.
When the female reporter heard these words, it was a manifestation of the other party's extreme confidence. In this country, confident and successful people can always gain the favor of strangers. There is no humble growth environment here. Instead, people admire these successful people with extreme confidence.
Before the interview ended, the female reporter had already decided that the article that appeared in the Washington Post tomorrow was titled: Death, Tax Payment, and Wayne Greenberg's continuous success movie. These three things will soon accompany this generation of North American young people, and no one can escape!
"Well......."
The female reporter pondered for a moment and looked at the tough and young face of the man opposite. There was a saying that she did not lie. The youngness of this man really surprised her after meeting. Her tough face, a turtle buzz cut of no more than two centimeters in length, and a close-fitting black casual suit, coupled with the other party's terrifying wealth value, even a middle-aged woman, she also felt attracted by the other party's confidence.
This is a successful person, billionaire, philanthropist, and the most important label. A playboy who makes women in North America want to be crazy. There are many controversies around the other party, but the achievements made by the other party at this age are insignificant compared to those controversies.
"Sorry, Wayne, I'm a little confused." Shaking my head slightly, the female reporter whispered apologetically and continued to ask. "As the biggest competitor of the summer season of "Batman: The Dark Knight", have you seen the movie "Jurassic Park 2" in the cinema? What do you think of the movie?"
Assessment, Wayne glanced at the camera being recorded in a hidden way, shook his head at the reporter without hesitation, without blushing at all. "Sorry, I'm so busy with work during this period. I've been flying all over North America, so I haven't taken time to see "Jurassic Park, let alone comment."
"Then have you watched Steven Spielberg's movies in the past few years? What do you think of this friend?" The female reporter was obviously not easy to do, so she immediately asked again.
"No, I am too busy at work and I rarely have time to sit down quietly to watch movies." While repelling the female reporter's questioning again, Wayne shook his head at Nina, who had already stood up and wanted to stop the reporter from continuing to ask questions.
This is the other party's professional nature. Their profession is born to like to create news hotspots. In fact, he has discovered that this middle-aged white female reporter has no disgust towards him, so he obscurely stopped Nina's actions.
"Ok, OK!"
Before the female reporter could continue to ask questions, Wayne smiled and raised his hands, shrugged his shoulders, made a surrender gesture, and said helplessly in his tone: "Okay, I admit that since I graduated, I have hardly seen works taken by others. This is a completely bad habit, so it is obviously a very difficult question to answer when you ask me to evaluate other great directors."
The female reporter also smiled, with a hint of playfulness in her tone, and asked again: "Why do you rarely read other Hollywood directors' works?"
“The first reason is that I’m too busy with work.”
Faced with repeated questions, Wayne also put away his teasing, frowned slightly, and said without hesitation: "In addition to the busy work, the reason why I don't watch works by other directors is because the movie "Escape from the Deadly Town" I filmed seven years ago can still be successful even if it is now!"
Confidence, or arrogance, made such arrogant remarks stunned the female reporter, photographer and several directors at the same time. Then everyone, including assistant Nina, nodded slowly, as if they recognized his extremely arrogant remarks.
After the female reporter reacted, she looked at Wayne with an inexplicable light flashing again. The man opposite was always a kind and successful person in the media and the public. She seemed to have discovered a new world.
Such arrogant remarks, if it were another Hollywood director, would inevitably make the staff on the scene sneer secretly, but as long as you think about it carefully, such arrogant remarks are actually in line with the facts and even without any sense of incongruity.
In the early 1990s, when this man's movie "Escape from the Deadly Town" landed in the North American theater market, he was called the extremely dazzling black pearl on the Hollywood film industry. He used his unique dark stylized film to redefine this niche movie genre.
From the early 1990s to the present, he has been constantly successful with works with strong personal stylization. Over the years, whenever he has a new work released, imitators continue to appear in the circle. However, there are few successful people among these imitators. The only two peers, Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, who performed well, still have a visible gap with him in terms of box office results or college awards.
In the extremely competitive circle of Hollywood, this young man is still at the top of the industry, and his extremely vigorous creative energy has given him no sign of coming to a low point.
Of course, he can despise other directors of the same period. Even for many senior directors, the situation will not be much better. When the media discusses the career masterpieces of major directors every year, many directors have one or two well-known masterpieces. When discussing this young director master named Wayne Greenberg, most media will feel confused. Almost every work of this guy can be called a masterpiece, and has excellent results in box office or art!
The interview was going on. The female reporter would occasionally get away from the topic of "Batman: The Dark Knight" and ask some topics that seem difficult or cause controversy, but these would be done in time. She has always grasped the scale of the problem to avoid causing the disgust of this big-name interviewee.
Time passed slowly. When the interview reached the end, the female reporter asked curiously while sorting out the things on the table: "The last question, Wayne, even I am very curious about this question."
"Ok, just say it."
"As a young billionaire, what do you look like in your daily life?" The reporter asked. This question, she believed that it was definitely a question that most ordinary people in North America wanted to gossip. Although it seems that with the popularity of the Internet in the past two years, more and more myths of wealth creation have begun to appear, but the private life of almost every rich man is something that ordinary people are curious about.
"There is nothing to keep secret." Wayne smiled and shook his head, thought for a moment, and replied directly: "In recent years, every movie I have been able to bring me at least tens of millions of dollars in income, but in fact, I don't own a lot of real estate and real estate as many people imagine. So far, I still have only one house, which I earned for me by "Happy Death Day"!
I don’t have a yacht, I don’t have a luxury private jet, I hardly take a vacation, my personal consumption expenditure is not high, so most of my work income is put into the charitable foundations under my name to help those vulnerable people in need, probably that’s it, there’s nothing mysterious, right?”
"Wow, of course, Wayne, you're a real chivalrous billionaire! An upright tough guy! A good man!"
The female reporter and other staff members gave him a scattered applause, and ended this special interview amid the applause.
Nina, who had been listening to the whole time, curled her lips and looked at her boss with undisguised contempt. He did have only one property, and that property was indeed bought with the money earned from "Happy Death Day", but that property is located at the top of Beverly Hills, at the end of Mulholland Road, and is the largest, most luxurious and most valuable manor nearby.
It's true that there are no yachts and other things, but there are no luxurious private jets. It's because Warner Bros.'s large luxury business jets are always on standby for him, and it's true that his personal expenses are not high, but his life is definitely low-key luxury. Look at the suit on the security guard Sergei, there is no sign of British customization, and this man silently paid for it.
As for that charity foundation, it has indeed helped some people, but the charity foundation has the greatest effect. Anyone who understands it knows that it is to avoid taxes. The expenses of the entire Greenberg Manor, including the salaries of all personnel, are all taken from the charity foundation's account...
"Damn it, dear Ms. Nina Klein, can you tell me what your expression is?" After tidied up his upper body's suit jacket, Wayne took the assistant lady into the car from the back door of the cinema. When he saw the contempt on the other person's face, he was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he stretched out a finger and gently tapped the other person's eyes.
"Boss, after you win the Oscar, you become more and more shameless."
Nina lowered her head slightly, raised her hand and pushed her glasses habitually, her tone was still as calm as ever.
Faced with the assistant lady's revelation, Wayne did not show any anger at all. Instead, he bent down slightly and said, "Tell me more praises, Sergey, drive, let's go back to the hotel to rest, and we will come after a night in the new week."
