Chapter 1172 (1/2)
Edward bravely flew all the way, from another point of view, perfectly interpreting the old Chinese saying: closer to the countryside, more timid.
Have to be timid!
He was afraid that he would screw up the movie and his career because of this major mistake.
To be fair, Edward thought that one percent of the leakage of the script came from the insiders. Whether it could be found out or not, it was due to his poor management.
140 million dollars of investment to their own hands, playing to leak out all the investment plans, who dares to invest money to make their own films in the future?
If Warner kills himself in a rage, I'm afraid that no one in Hollywood will pull himself
When the plane landed in Los Angeles, Edward really wanted to cry in his desk and chair. He was anxious, painful, frightened and worried All kinds of negative emotions are lingering in Edward's mind, which makes him feel like he is being pressed on his chest by a huge stone, and even breathing is difficult.
After getting off the plane, he took a taxi to the company in a hurry. In the taxi, he saw today's newspaper. In addition to the huge headline of ”the last samurai” script leakage, the whole front page left a huge picture. This picture was synthesized by the media itself, with Tom Cruise, Watanabe and other actors, looking fierce.
This discovery made Edward even more broken, for fear that Mayer would fight with himself.
When he arrived at the company, Edward received the comforting eyes of all his colleagues. A PR manager familiar with him told him: ”Edward, the boss will hold a press conference tomorrow, you must cheer up!”
Edward is going crazy.
Press conference, do you want to let yourself out so soon?
He walked all the way to the door of Mayer's office.
When the Secretary saw him, he smiled and said, ”Edward, you are back at last!”
Edward can't help being annoyed. Damn it, I've done a lot of work. Are you laughing? Gloating, isn't it?
The upset Edward asked him angrily, ”is the boss there? I want to see him. ”
The Secretary said with a smile, ”Mr. Meyer is not here, but when he leaves in the morning, let me tell you that you don't have to worry. Take a good rest first, and he will interview you in the evening.”
Edward stupefied, subconsciously asked: ”what do you say? Mr Meyer told me not to worry? ”
”Yes.” The secretary explained: ”Mr. Meyer was very happy when he left. It seems that this matter didn't cause him too much trouble, so he deliberately asked me to let me tell you those words.”
The confused Edward didn't dare to relax his vigilance immediately. He just went back to his home in Los Angeles and waited for Mayer's call.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Mayer called. After asking about Edward's arrival in Los Angeles, he immediately invited him to his home to talk about tomorrow's conference.
Edward hurried to meet Mayer, who was as nervous as a three-year-old.
Unexpectedly, Mayer warmly invited him to sit down on the sofa in the reception hall, offered himself a cigar, and said with a smile, ”Edward, you are blessed with misfortune this time! Now the leakage of the script has become a hot spot, even YY has reported, and the exposure of the film has reached its peak at once. The Japanese management is very satisfied with this! ”
Edward asked incredulously, ”Mr. Meyer, why are Japanese managers satisfied with this?”
Meyer laughs: ”what they care about is the exposure and influence. The box office is not so important. Now the movie hasn't been finished, and the fame is already so big. Of course, they are very satisfied.”
With that, Mayer patted Edward on the shoulder and said with a smile, ”you must be very nervous when you come back?”
Edward breathed a sigh of relief, as if the stone in his heart had been removed in an instant, and tears of excitement were coming out, but he still said with lingering fear: ”Mr. Meyer, only God knows how hard it is for me to come back!”! God bless me, otherwise, I don't know how to deal with you and the management... ”
Meyer laughs and comforts: ”your luck is so good. If this event continues to develop like this, this movie will probably become the hottest topic of the year. Once the movie is released in the future, it will cause a huge sensation!”
Edward nodded again and again, promising, ”don't worry, Mr. Meyer, I will try my best to make this movie!”
Meyer nodded and smiled, ”I believe in your strength!”
With that, Meyer added, ”let's have a good look at tomorrow's press conference. If you do a good job, you can go back and continue shooting.”
