Chapter 396
If he and Leonardo star in"Brokeback Mountain," Martin is also curious about what kind of box office it will get.
In the original timeline, this movie, made for awards purposes, exploded with incredible box office potential and almost saved Li Bian's career.
The production cost was US$14 million, and the global box office was US$178 million, making a huge profit.
It was also regarded as a"monument to promote same-sex love" by the gay community at the time.
If he and Leonardo were to star, the production cost would definitely increase, after all, where are the two people's salaries, but -
Martin has a hunch that the box office will probably explode to an extremely astonishing height.
You know, a year and a half ago, when Martin's Legolas was on fire, someone left a post - hoping to see Martin and Leonardo, two stunning beauties, falling in love.
Today, this"420" post still hasn't sunk in, with more than 50 million replies and nearly 100 million likes.
The box office potential of fujoshi and gay groups cannot be ignored either.

Miramax.
Harvey's Office
"Oh, Bob, come here and tell me, how is our public relations situation?"
"It’s not a big problem. We have completely taken care of those old guys. So many gifts and women come to our door every year. As long as the quality of the film is decent, they won’t be embarrassed."
"Huh, greedy vulture, you are still playing with women at such an old age, and you are not afraid of dying in bed! Harvey complained, and then said,"The quality of"Chicago" is well-known. You keep in touch with them. I want the best picture, um, and a few more technical awards.""
"Do Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress require PR?"Bob asked.
Harvey narrowed his eyes and thought of Catherine's graceful body again, and then said:"No need for Best Actress, Renée Zellweger is in charge of public relations, so let her do the work."
Speaking of this, Harvey's tone was a little dissatisfied.
Renée Zellweger rejected his invitation several times.
But behind this woman are Jim Carrey and George Clooney, and there is also a vague figure of a Texas congressman. Harvey also Don’t dare to use force.
(PS: Renée Zellweger and Jim Carrey were engaged in 1999 and broke off the engagement a year later, but their relationship has always been very good.)
Catherine is more sensible, and Harvey feels that more resources should be used on Catherine , if he can win another Oscar for an actress, his reputation as an"award-winner" will be established.
"We focus on the best supporting actress in public relations. Catherine's acting skills are definitely worthy of an Oscar."
"By the way," Harvey suddenly remembered something,"Is that Nicole Kidman movie released? Bob hesitated, but decided to tell the truth,""The Hours" has been released, Nicole Kidman is also working on the Oscar for Best Actress, and it is said that Martin is also helping her with activities. The film is a co-production between Meyers Pictures and Paramount."
Harvey's face suddenly looked a little ugly.
He couldn't see any good in either of these two people, but they have always been very good, and they are getting better and better. It's so disgusting to mess with Fake!
…………
Paramount, Shirley Lansing's offices.
Tom Cruise was roaring,"Fuck, why did you work with that bastard Martin Meyers and that woman? Damn it, I didn't even know you invested in the movie until it was released."
Shelly Lansing looked at the furious person in front of her. The handsome man was slightly bored, why would Tom never grow up?
She looked cold and said calmly:"Tom, what are you talking about? Paramount does not need your consent to invest in any movie. You have to figure out your identity!"
"you——！"
Tom Cruise's face turned red and he suddenly said:"Don't forget, without my"Mission: Impossible" series, you wouldn't be able to sit in your current position."
Shirley Lansing laughed angrily at this sentence, and then Because of the overly generous contract signed between the"Mission: Impossible" series and Cruise Films, she has been questioned by the board of directors many times. Does this little bitch really think that I am relying on his movies to get to the top?
Shirley Lansing wanted to say something, but was suddenly speechless, so she waved her hand and said,"Go out, Tom.""
"You want to drive me away? Tom Cruise's eyes widened,"How dare you?"!"
Shirley Lansing's eyes widened, and she finally got used to it and said:
"This is my office, Tom. You don't need me to ask security to ask you out, do you?"
The aura of the strong woman burst out, immediately causing Tom Cruise's aura to stagnate.........
"You and I——"
Tom Cruise's face turned red, but in the end he turned around and left without saying a word.
Shirley Lansing shook her head. She gained a lot from her relationship with Tom Cruise, but also lost a lot - she once felt powerful because this extremely beautiful little puppy climbed into her bed. It brought unparalleled satisfaction, and at the same time enjoyed the young rou, and binding the"Mission: Impossible" series to Paramount did bring her a lot of reputation.
But as time went on, Shirley Lansing got tired of it.
After all, she is getting old, her hormone secretion is no longer strong, and her mind is no longer bound by the love between a man and a woman. As soon as her feelings for Tom Cruise fade, the other person's shortcomings will come to mind. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Arrogant and irrational.
Although he is smart enough, perhaps because of the smooth sailing he has had over the years, this man is often controlled by impulse and emotions and does some puzzling and ridiculous things.
For example, against Martin Meyers.
He has no grudge against you for taking your wife, so why do you have to be at odds with him?
When she thought about Martin's status today, Shirley Lansing regretted extremely. Why was she persuaded by Tom in the first place and not try her best to win Martin's joining? What a pity!
Damn it, if Martin could be bound to Paramount, his position would be extremely stable now, instead of being shaky like it is now.
Her congressman backer is about to retire in two years...
Shirley Lansing has a premonition that the day when she will withdraw from the top circles of Hollywood is not far away!
…………
"What, MGM wants to sell?"
Martin received a call from Drew Barrymore at home.
This woman has too many connections in the Hollywood circle, and her sources of information are better than Martin's.
Especially when Flower Pictures merged into Meyers Pictures, this woman became After becoming the CEO of Meyers Pictures, with Martin on her back, she was even more unfavorable in making connections.
On the contrary, at Martin's level, after the circle increased, making connections required making choices, and she could not make friends with everyone..Of course, Drew is his man, so he is also well-informed.[]
