MTL - Heads Up Hollywood-Chapter 116 biggest winner
There are many gossip tabloids in the United States, because the content is too outrageous and exaggerated, so the influence is very low.
But Dunn is different. He is currently the most talked-about and hot director in Hollywood, and he is also directing the super blockbuster "Spider-Man" that has attracted the attention of the United States. What he said is destined to become the focus of discussion in the United States.
The Gold Club suddenly became popular!
Many media and TV stations have introduced that the Golden Club is a nightclub located in Atlanta. Its founder is Steve Kaplan, and it is the favorite nightclub of NBA players.
Because of the participation of NBA players, Dunn's words not only caused a sensation in the entertainment circle, but also attracted close attention in the sports circle.
No one is a fool. Some time ago, Bruce Willis made a mockery of "Wedding Cracker", and Dunn immediately exposed his experience of going in and out of the Gold Club.
This is definitely revenge!
Especially thinking of Tang En's strong character of revenge in the past, he would never have a target.
The Golden Club... I'm afraid it's not just a strip club.
As a result, major TV stations, mainstream newspapers, and many other related organizations sent reporters to Atlanta to make secret visits to the Gold Club.
The Gold Club, at the end of 1999, suddenly became the most talked-about nightclub in the entire United States.
And the fuse of the whole incident, Bruce Willis, fell into the whirlpool of public opinion before he came out of the joy of the great success of "The Sixth Sense".
On the entertainment page of the Los Angeles Times, the outspoken provoked a conflict: "Bruce Willis, have you ever broken the law?"
The "National Enquirer" directly detonated the bomb and criticized Bruce Willis like a criminal, "As a first-line Hollywood star, Bruce Willis has a reputation, a status, and a better behavior. Too much. According to reliable sources, Bruce Willis goes to the Gold Club at least twice a month, recruiting 3-5 dancers each time. He has a lot of money and is a favorite guest of the girls."
"The Hollywood Reporter" also fanned the flames, arguing that "Bruce Willis' stupidity and crime are not worthy of his current status and fame," while calling on fans to stop buying "The Sixth Sense" movie tickets, "letting Go to **** with Bruce Willis and his movies!"
Bruce Willis suddenly lost his mind, he panicked, he was stunned, he was terrified!
He has never had a conflict with Dunn. The reason why he targeted "Wedding Cracker" was completely in accordance with the requirements of the producers, and it was for the sake of the box office of "The Sixth Sense".
Because of the limited budget of "The Sixth Sense", the producer offered him "$14 million + 17% net box office share". According to the current box office trend of "The Sixth Sense", it is entirely possible for him to get more than $60 million in compensation from this film!
For money, it doesn't matter if you say a word or two.
However, he thought that it was such "unintentional talk" that he stabbed a big hole and directly angered Dunn Walker.
Bruce Willis' agency immediately launched public relations and held three press conferences in a row, of which Bruce Willis participated in two. It is clarified to the whole society that Mr. Bruce Willis has indeed been in and out of the Gold Club, but he just watched the strip show, and he did not violate the law.
But scandals are like a tsunami. Once they break out, they are unstoppable.
……
With the outbreak of the Bruce Willis scandal, the box office of "The Sixth Sense" fell off a cliff, and the theater side was also very smart, and quickly dropped from 2,682 theaters to 1,358.
In stark contrast to it is "Wedding Cracker", the number of theaters once again exceeded 2,000, and the weekly box office of the week rose sharply. The North American box office reached 8.47 million US dollars, and the total North American box office total accumulated 187 million US dollars. It is on the verge of breaking the $200 million mark.
What is the concept of the $200 million North American box office?
Throughout 1999, before November, only three films had grossed more than $200 million in North America: Star Wars: Episode 1: The Ghost Man, The Sixth Sense, and Power 2.
It was widely favored before. The romantic film "Notting Hill" starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, produced by Universal Pictures, has a North American box office of only 110 million US dollars. It is estimated that when the screening ends, it will only be the same type of film "Wedding". Half of Awkward.
Of course, because "Wedding Cracker" adopts newcomers and its values are too open, the overseas box office will not exceed 100 million US dollars, which is incomparable with the overseas box office of "Notting Hill" of 240 million US dollars.
But this is enough to surprise Hollywood!
Following the small-budget success of "My Big Greek Wedding" last year, this year's "Wedding Cracker" has also achieved remarkable and amazing achievements.
Even Danny Boyle, the British director of "Wedding Cracker", has become a hot figure, and I heard that MGM intends to let him take over the "007" series.
A segment of Bruce Willis and Dunn's air-to-air fight, "Wedding Cracker" became the biggest winner.
At this time, Mel Gibson, the top star in Hollywood today, suddenly said in an interview—
"Gold Club? Yes, I know this nightclub, it's very famous. As far as I know, there are many stars in Hollywood who have been there. Me? No, I have not been there, I heard that there are some illegal programs in it, I am a legal citizen."
"I trust Director Walker, I haven't been in contact with him, but he's a talented lad, I admire his ability, and I'm sure he won't gossip. Bruce Willis...Honestly, I have a hard time believing he would. do this kind of thing."
"As a public figure, I think abiding by the law is the bottom line. How can we allow a criminal to appear on the big screen and perform for the audience? I don't know if the performance is art or a mistake."
……
When Tang En heard the news, he was a little dumbfounded.
Aren't Mel Gibson and Bruce Willis both WMA artists?
Infighting?
It's not like, don't look at Bruce Willis' popularity now, but it's not enough to shake Mel Gibson.
This Australian actor is one of the only four big-name members in Hollywood today who have received a "20+20" salary!
Dunn is a little strange. How could Mel Gibson speak for himself inexplicably?
Is there a conspiracy?
Dunn shook his head, it was difficult to understand.
"Dawn, has your movie finished?" Natalie suddenly called.
Dunn was filming "Spider-Man" in New York, and Natalie was filming "Soul Shifting Girl" in California. The two were separated by two places and talked on the phone every day.
"Come on~www.novelbuddy.com~ within three days." Tang En smiled, "When the movie is over, I'll go back to see you."
"I'm here too. Director Mendes said that in one month, the movie will be finished, and then let's travel to Australia." Natalie's voice was full of longing.
Dunn smiled and said, "Australia? Was it Nicole's invitation? Or Naomi?"
"I hate Naomi!" Natalie whispered, then lowered her voice, "Dawn, you're in New York... living with Jessica, right?"
"Cough cough." Dunn was a little embarrassed, "Nate, why did you mention this all of a sudden? I've thought about it, I'll let Jessica move out of the house after the filming of "Spider-Man" is over."
"Oh..." Natalie took a long tone, "And Naomi! I hate her so much!"
Dunn paused, "Where's Nicole?"
"Nicole at least knows that I'm your girlfriend, and she doesn't mean to fight with me. But Naomi is a **** and obviously has other plans for you! I hate her!" Natalie's voice was very angry. .
Tang En was a little funny, "Okay, I'll listen to you. When the filming of "The Girl Who Moves Soul" is over, I'll let her get out!"
"Well!" Natalie looked very happy. "By the way, you haven't promised me yet. Are you going to Australia?"
Dunn was a little embarrassed, "Nate, in the later stage of "Spider-Man", because of tax rebates, I went to the UK to make a part, I'm afraid I won't have the time."
"But I already promised someone else!" Natalie pouted, a little coquettish.
"Who is it?"
Dunn smiled slightly, thinking it was Nicole Kidman. It was always a good thing that Natalie was friendly with her.
"Mr. Gibson."
"Who?"
"Mel Gibson!"
