Hollywood Drawing

Five hundred and fifty-six - Arrogant or confident?

In the lounge on the second floor of the theater in Washington, D.C., the interview with Wayne continued. Especially when he said the words death, tax payment, and the success rate of Wayne's movies, the female reporter's eyes suddenly lit up. Bright light.

When these words were heard by the female reporter, they were a sign of her extreme confidence. In this country, confident and successful people can always win the favor of strangers. There is no modest growth environment here at all, and people admire them more. These are successful people with extreme self-confidence.

Before the interview ended, the female reporter had already decided that the title of the article that would appear in the Washington Post tomorrow would be: death, taxes, and Wayne Greenberg’s continued success in movies. Something is about to happen to this generation of North American young people, and no one can escape it!

"Well......."

The female reporter pondered for a moment, then looked at the strong and young face of the man opposite. She was indeed not lying when she said something. This man's youthfulness really surprised her after meeting him. With a tough face, Yuan Cun hair that is no longer than two centimeters in length, and a close-fitting black casual suit, coupled with the other party's terrifying wealth, even if she is a middle-aged woman, she still feels that she is also attracted by the other party's self-confidence. Attracted.

This is a successful person, a billionaire, a philanthropist who is famous all over North America, and the most important label, a playboy who makes women all over North America want to go crazy. There are many controversies surrounding him, but he is at this age. The achievements pale in comparison to the controversies.

"Sorry, Wayne, I was a little lost." Shaking her head slightly, the female reporter whispered apologetically, and continued to ask; "As the biggest competitor for the summer release of "The Dark Knight" , "Jurassic Park 2", have you gone to the cinema to watch it? What is your evaluation of the movie?"

Commenting, Wayne glanced covertly at the camera that was recording, and shook his head at the reporter without hesitation, not even the slightest bit blushing as he was about to lie. “I’m sorry, I’ve been really busy with work during this period. I’ve been flying around major cities in North America, so I didn’t take time to watch Jurassic Park, let alone comment on it. .”

"Have you seen Steven Spielberg's movies from the past few years? What do you think of this good friend?" The female reporter was obviously not easy to fool, and immediately asked again.

"No, I'm usually too busy with my work. I rarely have time to sit down and watch movies quietly." While avoiding the female reporter's questioning again, Wayne quietly faced the reporter who had already stood up and wanted to stop the reporter from continuing to ask questions. Nina shook her head.

This is the professional nature of the other party. In their profession, they naturally like to create hot news. In fact, he has discovered that this middle-aged white female reporter has no ill feelings towards him, so he implicitly 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 gesture of surrender, and said with helplessness in his tone: "Okay, I admit, since I graduated, I have almost It’s a bad habit to not have seen other people’s works, so if you ask me to evaluate other great directors, it’s obviously a very difficult question to answer.”

The female reporter also smiled, with a hint of playfulness in her tone, and asked again: "Why do you rarely watch the works of other Hollywood directors?"

"The number one reason is that we are too busy at work."

Facing repeated questioning, Wayne's face stopped teasing, frowned slightly, and said unceremoniously: "Apart from the busy work, the reason why I don't watch other directors' works very much is because I have seven The movie "Get Out" that was shot years ago can still be successful even now!"

Confidence, or arrogance, such arrogant remarks made the female reporter, photographer and several directors stunned for a moment. Then everyone at the scene, including assistant Nina, nodded slowly one after another. , as if he recognized his extremely arrogant remarks.

After the female reporter reacted, an inexplicable light flashed in her eyes again when she looked at Wayne. The man opposite him had always been a kind, gentle and successful person in the media and the public. It was like she had discovered a new world.

Such arrogant remarks, if it were made by any other Hollywood director, would inevitably make the on-site staff curl their lips secretly, but if you think about it carefully, such arrogant remarks are actually in line with the facts when it comes to this man, and even There is no sense of violation and.

In the early 1990s, when this man's movie "Get Out" hit the North American theater market, he was called the shining black pearl in the Hollywood film industry by the entire film industry. The dark stylized film can be said to have redefined this niche film genre.

From the early 1990s to the present, he has been continuously successful with works with a strong personal style. Over the past many years, whenever a new work of his is released, there are inevitably imitators in the industry. But few of these imitators are successful. The only two peers who performed well, Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, still have visible differences with him in terms of box office performance and Academy awards. gap.

In the extremely competitive world of Hollywood, this young man is still at the top of the industry. His incomparable creative energy gives him no sign that he is about to enter a downturn.

Of course he can despise the works of other directors of the same period, even if they are 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 familiar masterpieces, but when discussing this young director named Wayne Greenberg, most media will feel confused. , almost every work of this guy can be called a masterpiece, and all of them have achieved outstanding results at the box office or in art!

The interview continued. From time to time, the female reporter would deviate from the topic of "The Dark Knight" and ask some questions that seemed to be difficult or controversial, but these would be stopped in moderation. She always controlled the scale of the questions. Avoid offending the high-profile interview subject.

Time passed slowly, and when the exclusive interview came to an end, the female reporter arranged the things on the table and asked with curiosity: "The last question, Wayne, this is a question that even I am very curious about."

"Okay, just say it."

"As a young billionaire, what is it like in daily life?" the reporter asked. This question, she believes, is definitely a question that most ordinary people in North America want to gossip about, despite the fact that in the past two years, it seems that with the Internet, With the rise of wealth, more and more wealth-making myths have begun to appear, but the private life of almost every rich man is something that ordinary people are curious about.

"There's nothing to keep secret." Wayne smiled and shook his head. After thinking about it for a moment, he answered directly: "In the past few years, each of my movies has brought me at least tens of millions of dollars in income, but In fact, I don’t own as many houses and real estate as many people think. Up to now, I still only have one house, and that was earned for me by "Happy Death Day"!

I don’t have a yacht, I don’t have a luxury private jet, I rarely take vacations, and my personal consumption expenditure is not high, so most of my work income is put into the charitable foundation in my name to help those Vulnerable people in need of help, that's about it, no mystery, right? "

"Wow, of course, Wayne, you are a billionaire with true chivalry! A tough guy with integrity! A good man!"

The female reporter, together with other staff, gave him sparse applause, and ended this special interview amidst the applause.

Nina, who had been listening to the whole process, curled her lips and looked at her boss with undisguised contempt. He does only have one house, and that house was indeed bought with the money earned from "Happy Death Day", but that house is located on the top of Beverly Hills, at the end of Mulholland Drive, and is the largest and most luxurious nearby. It is also the most valuable estate.

It’s true that he doesn’t have yachts and other things, but he doesn’t have luxury private jets. That’s because Warner Brothers’ large luxury business jets are on standby for him at any time. It’s true that his personal expenses are not high, but his life is definitely low-key luxury. Look at it. Even the suit worn by security guard Sergey was custom-made in England without any logo, and these were all paid for by this man silently.

As for the charitable foundation, it has indeed rescued some people, but the biggest role of the charitable foundation. Anyone who knows it knows that it is to avoid taxes. The expenses of the entire Greenberg Manor, including the salaries of all personnel, etc., are all gone. The accounts of this charitable foundation...

"Damn, dear Ms. Nina Klein, can you tell me what your expression is like?" After adjusting his upper body suit jacket, Wayne took the assistant lady and got into the car from the back door of the theater. When he saw the other person's face, After expressing his disdain, he didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he stretched out a finger and lightly tapped the other person's eyes.

"Boss, after you won the Oscar, you became more and more shameless."

Nina lowered her head slightly, raised her hand to push up her glasses habitually, her tone was 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, "Write more compliments, Sergey, and drive. Let's go back to the hotel to rest. We'll come back after a good night's sleep in the new week." ”
