Chapter 203: The enemy of the enemy

"Mer Gibson accused me of not working with you! Who did he think he was?"

It can be seen that the consequences of two arrogant people colliding together were very serious, and Tom Cruise's eyes were full of anger, "I have the freedom to work with any actor, any director, any producer and any film company, not to mention that he is Mel Gibson, and even his agent Martin Bob has no power to stop me!"

"You do have this power."

Duke raised his glass of wine, Tom Cruise raised his head and drank half a glass of champagne, and said indignantly, "Can Mel Gibson think his agent is the controller of Caa?"

"Tom, there is no need to get so angry about this little thing, right?"

No matter how you hear this, it is just persuasion, but the actual effect is to add fuel to the fire. Tom Cruise drank the remaining half glass of champagne again, "Not only that, he also accused me of not working with a Jewish pig..."

He quickly said, "Sorry, Duke, this is what Mel Gibson said."

"It's okay." Duke smiled generously.

"We are collaborators, we are friends, Duke." Tom Cruise seemed very righteous, but the words were a bit credible, and only Mel Gibson knew about it. "I started arguing with him for this."

Things are definitely not as simple as he said, Duke is sure of that.

Sure enough, Tom Cruise said again, "He... that vulgar Australian savage actually said that I only sell my face on the screen! I don't have any acting skills! I say that I succeeded only because of my appearance!"

These words obviously poked Tom Cruise's sore spot, and his face was so dark that it could almost drip into water. "What is he? Duke, he is just your defeated man! Just a shameful loser!"

It seemed that the champagne glass in his hand was regarded as Mel Gibson and Tom Cruise placed the glass heavily on the small round table in front of him, making a crisp sound.

Holding his chin with his left hand, Duke looked directly at Tom Cruise, looking extremely sincere, "Tom, in this world, the person I admire and respect the most is my mother."

Tom Cruise was a little confused and didn't understand why Duke mentioned his mother.

Duke smiled and said, "My mother told me that language is the most powerful way to fight back!"

"Let the best you appear in Chicago, I believe I will succeed, and I believe you will succeed!" Duke reminded him vigorously, "Can he still laugh when you get the Oscar Little Golden Man? When you walk to Gibson with the Little Golden Man, you can enjoy it..."

Cruise nodded first, then frowned and said, "Brave Heart is winning the award, will he win it?"

"Action is the best way to fight back." Duke said lightly.

"We're going to wait for the opportunity." Tom Cruise stood up, "I'll double down on the insult that Mel Gibson exerted on me!"

Looking at Tom Cruise's back as he left, Duke suddenly felt that he had come to this party tonight and had actually gained an enemy.

How should the deteriorating relationship between Tom Cruise and Mel Gibson be used? This is a question that Duke needs to consider carefully.

Tom Cruise's face did not improve. The reason why he had a conflict with Mel Gibson was not only the other party interfering with him and laughing at him, but also because he got news from other places that when Nicole Kidman returned to Sydney a year ago, he appeared in a hotel with Mel Gibson and stayed for three hours...

This was one of the reasons why he broke into a quarrel with Nicole Kidman that night.

On the other side, walking into the palm forest on the left side of the garden with Mel Gibson, Martin Bob's face was also ugly. First, Tom Hanks and Duke Rosenberg cooperated, and then Tom Cruise and Duke cooperated. This not only shows the sharp internal contradictions to the outside world. It also tells the whole Hollywood that he does not have complete control over Caa.

This will have an impact on his reputation and status in Caa. Martin Bob is very clear that he has no connection with Ino Martin. The other party has always been his strongest competitor and is always planning his position. If he really joins together most partners such as Patrol Kingsley, he will be in danger.

In fact, the voices of questioning him have been increasing in recent years. The most direct trigger is that the dominant packaging project is always lower than expected or even fails. For example, "Brave Heart". No matter how he argues, it cannot change the fact that the box office of this film failed.

The film's North American box office has so far less than US$25 million, and the global box office is only more than US$73 million. Not to mention the revenue generated, the producers are far from recovering their costs.

The biggest hope for this film is the Oscar. If you can win heavyweight awards such as Best Actor, Best Director or Best Picture, you can turn it around in the videotape and TV broadcast copyrights like last year's "Shawshank Redemption".

The Oscar is the last hope of "Brave Heart". Even if the subsequent market cannot turn around, as long as you win a heavyweight award, it can still be considered a success for Caa.

Under the bright lights, Martin Bob and Mel Gibson were silent and walked forward slowly. Perhaps it was because of the deepening night. The whistling sea breeze blew through the woods, making a rustling sound.

On the way, I met several actresses who were chatting with each other. Both of them ignored me and simply turned to a quiet path and found a bench to sit on it so that I could think about what other special way to use to please the judges present and win the future votes in their hands.

It would be much easier if those old guys were interested in Mel Gibson.

Martin Bob looked at the Australian savage next to him. He would definitely make Mel Gibson bend over and stick his butt up.

The footsteps went from far to near, and several people walked dozens of feet away and stopped because several thick palm trees blocked their view. Martin Bob and Mel Gibson could not see who the person was, but could only hear their discussion.

"Levi..."

This is an old voice, "Who do you tend to in the videos that have been released?"

"Old man. Have you forgotten our rules?"

Hearing this sentence, Martin Bob and Mel Gibson's ears stood up, and they had only seen the master of the voice in the evening. It was Levi Rousman, the rotating chairman of the academy!

"We have been in friendship for over fifty years." This is another voice, "Levi, this is just a private discussion. It does not violate the rules of the college."

Martin Bob and Mel Gibson looked at each other and listened to the conversation over there. They must have discussed topics related to Oscars.

Levi Rousman's voice sounded again, "If there is no eye-catching video in the next period, I think "Save Private Ryan" and Duke Rosenberg are the most suitable choices."

"Don't you think he's younger? And he has a bad reputation in the critical community."

"I know this." Levi Rousman did not try to convince his companions, his tone was very plain. "Public opinion always criticized us for lack of motivation to reform. We always had to come up with something substantial. The age record of the best director will be rewritten one day..."

Speaking of this, the voice suddenly turned to seriousness, "Why isn't the rewritten person not a Jewish person?"

"Your words make some sense. Duke Rosenberg is our own people after all."

The discussions continued there, Martin Bob and Mel Gibson's faces became extremely ugly. They naturally knew how powerful the Jewish forces in Hollywood were.

Damn Jewish Pig!

Mel Gibson cursed in a low voice, why weren't these damn miscellaneous creatures killed by the Nazis?

A few minutes later, the sound of discussions disappeared. Then the footsteps sounded again, and the nearby quiet became regained in addition to the sound of the wind.

"Is this the result of Warner and Fox's PR?" asked Mel Gibson.

Martin Bob nodded, "It's possible."

He also said, "Duke Rosenberg's ethnic advantage may bring some uncontrollable factors."

Even Mel Gibson could not deny this. He slowly tapped his right hand with his left hand. His brows gradually frowned, and his eyes were full of thoughtful expressions.

After half a minute, he suddenly said, "Martin, do you still remember the Sophie Marceau I mentioned?"

"Sophie Marceau?" Martin Bob hesitated. "Be careful about this!"

"The Oscar is the last chance for "Brave Heart", Duke Rosenberg and his movies are our biggest rivals!"

That name seems to have become a curse in my heart. The troubles caused by the other party and the crushing defeat in competition have always been unforgettable for Mel Gibson, and this is also the key to his efforts to win the most authoritative award. Judging from the current situation, if you win, the best director will be close to you...

"Martin, although there is no evidence, I believe Caa has used some special means in the past Oscar competition?"

Martin Bob's silence is more like the default.

"Did you forget the losses that Duke Rosenberg has caused to the project you led?" Mel Gibson seemed to be William Wallace, who shouted 'freedom', "or is your ambition being wiped out?"

"I'm thinking about specific solutions." Martin Bob's eyes flashed, "How can I think about how to impress Sophie Marceau."

"Did you think of it?" asked Mel Gibson.

"Judy Foster can spend the night with the female and co-producer for "The Legend of Pear Blossom", Julia Roberts can sleep with all the producers for "The Beauty of the Wind", and Demi Moore can attend the producer's carnival party for "The Love of Man and Ghost". As long as the interests and bait are big enough, these actresses who are chasing fame and fortune can take off their pants and walk on the red carpet!"

Martin Bob stood up, "I decided to adopt your suggestion, let's go see Sophie Marceau." (To be continued, please search Piaotianyi, the novel is better, updated and faster!
