"Collaborating on the project 'Three Hundred Spartans'?" Matthew seemed confused about what Harvey Weinstein meant, "Harvey, it's good that I'm the initiator of this project, but I'm just doing it for David - Ellison's Skydance Pictures and Frank Miller made a bridge, and the last to buy the film rights is Skydance Pictures, which is completely in the hands of David Ellison."

What he said is a 100% fact, no matter who is to understand it, things are like this.

Harvey Weinstein didn't speak, just looked at Matthew, and seemed to be putting pressure on Matthew in this way.

A person like Matthew, who is black-faced and thick-hearted, would care about this, and said very naturally, "The $80 million budget for "Three Hundred Spartans" all came from Sky Dance Films, in fact, David - Ellison's personal investment, he alone has the final say on this project."

"Huh?" Harvey Weinstein had already heard and understood clearly, and simply said directly, "Matthew, you are right, it's similar to what I know."

He suddenly increased his tone, "But I also know another fact, this project of David Ellison is going well, the key is that the male protagonist is you!"

Harvey Weinstein didn't give Matthew a chance to speak, and then said, "Don't you want to work with me? Weinstein Pictures can be the distributor of "Three Hundred Spartans."

Matthew interjected, "Skydance Studios has initialed a distribution deal with Warner Bros."

"Isn't the official distribution agreement signed yet?" Harvey Weinstein's voice was low, but his tone was heavy, "As long as you want to cooperate with me, you go to David Ellison and talk to him, presumably he will Respect your opinion."

He stared straight at Matthew, his eyes a bit pressing.

Matthew smiled and said, "Sorry, Harvey. I'm just the male lead on this project, I'm just an actor, I don't have the right to participate in this kind of thing, you should talk to David Ellison."

Harvey Weinstein did not speak, but stared straight at Matthew, as if he was constantly exerting pressure.

Matthew stood here naturally, with a neither humble nor arrogant attitude. He really did not want to offend Harvey Weinstein, but he would not deliberately please Harvey Weinstein. He is a first-line star and already has a certain amount of capital.

After half a minute, Harvey Weinstein saw that there was no effect, and said again, "Tell me, Matthew, what do you want."

"It's not a question of what to ask for." Matthew shook his head slowly, still pushing all questions to David Ellison, "The copyright of "Three Hundred Spartans" belongs to David Ellison All the investment is also from David Ellison. Harvey, if you want to release this film in the future, you can talk to David Ellison, I can't interfere."

Harvey Weinstein snorted inwardly, if he could talk to David Ellison, would he still find this guy opposite? After talking to David Ellison last time, not only did it not work, but instead, he had a fire, but after thinking about it, he couldn't do anything about David Ellison.

He's not as rich as David Ellison. The Weinstein brothers are far less powerful than the Ellison family. In this part of the United States, money often means many things.

In the Hollywood circle, he is old enough and powerful enough to overwhelm David Ellison.

The problem is that David Ellison is about to cooperate with Warner Bros., and Warner Bros. cannot follow his instructions. What can he do to suppress David Ellison and make him agree to give up the distribution rights?

In the past, in order to obtain the distribution rights of some independent films, he dared to lock the producers of the films in the hotel until the other side gave in.

But this method can be used against those in the independent film industry. If it is used on David Ellison, he will go to prison 100%.

Not to mention David Ellison, even if it is used on Matthew Horner, it can cause a lot of trouble.

Harvey Weinstein is very strong, likes to show off, and likes to bully the weak, but he also knows that people of different status should be treated in different ways.

So, Harvey Weinstein said again, "Let's do it, Matthew." Facing the actors, he always seemed very strong, and his tone seemed to have a taste of charity, "In the next three years, I will work with you to shoot. a film."

Matthew looked at Harvey Weinstein seriously, and seemed to be looking forward to what he said next, and frankly, he also wanted to see the price of Harvey Weinstein.

Harvey Weinstein knew very well what conditions would impress these Hollywood stars, saying, "This film will be tailored for the Oscars, and I guarantee that you can get at least one Oscar nomination!"

"Really?" Matthew's face showed surprise, "Harvey, are you telling the truth?"

He seemed to be very moved by Oscar, completely moved by Harvey Weinstein.

In this case, when Harvey Weinstein persuaded those stars, he always got nowhere. Seeing Matthew's expression now, he sneered twice in his heart. These Hollywood stars, when they heard Oscar, always sneered. No face.

"What I said, it must count!" Harvey Weinstein showed his trump card, "Don't forget, Matthew, how many Oscar nominations have the projects I initiated?"

"Yes! Yes!" Matthew nodded hastily, "Harvey, you have such ability and magic power!"

Harvey Weinstein laughed, "Then let's settle it like this, you help me get the distribution rights for "Spartan 300", and I'll help you get an Oscar nomination."

Hearing this, the surprise on Matthew's face disappeared little by little, gradually turned into embarrassment, and finally showed disappointment, sighed deeply, shook his head and said, "So the premise is this."

He became a little dejected, "I like Oscar very much, and I want to get it. For Oscar, I am willing to do everything."

Harvey Weinstein frowned, no matter what he said.

Matthew continued with disappointment and frustration, "But, Harvey, I really can't do it on your terms. After I made the match, Spartan 300 fell completely into David Ellison. In my hands, I have no right to speak at all. As you must know, actors can't speak at all when it comes to distribution."

Harvey Weinstein's eyes at Matthew gradually became a little surprised. Matthew Horner was obviously very tempted by Oscar. Like the stars he persuaded in the past, he had an unusual enthusiasm for Oscar awards, because Oscar There are too many substantial benefits to actors.

Matthew Horner cares about Oscar so much, and he rejected the Oscar bait he threw. Does it mean that he really has no right to speak? Doesn't affect David Ellison at all?

It may be so...

But Harvey Weinstein didn't give up, and added, "There's actually another trick, Matthew."

Matthew was instantly refreshed, as if he had completely bit the bait called Oscar, "You said it!"

"You can go and tell David Ellison." Harvey Weinstein's voice was lowering, "If you don't give the distribution rights of "Spartan 300" to Weinstein Pictures, you will Exit this project!"

The corners of Matthew's eyes flickered, and from these repeated conversations, he could see that Helen Herman, Johnny Depp, and Keira Knightley didn't describe Harvey Weinstein at all. Wrong, this person is strong and domineering, and he will not let go of things he likes easily.

If we do as Harvey Weinstein says, Matthew believes that David Ellison may turn to Weinstein Pictures, but his relationship with David Ellison will definitely break down completely. There will be a gap with Warner Bros, and even Zach Snyder will have a problem with him.

"Matthew..." Harvey Weinstein said suddenly, "I plan to win the Oscar for Best Actor in the next few years, as long as the actor's acting skills are above the standard line, I can make Gwyneth Parr. An actress of Troy's level can be pushed to the position of best actress at the Oscars, and she can also take someone with similar acting skills to her..."

He stopped at the right time and did not go on, but the meaning was already obvious.

That's a huge lure for any actor, and Harvey Weinstein's record over the past decade has proven that he's an Oscar-winner.

Matthew's face was hesitant, and his face was full of struggle, as if he was going through a huge psychological struggle.

Harvey Weinstein stopped talking. He didn't believe that any actor could break free from the big bait of the Oscar for best actor.

Of course, these words mean that he will first win the distribution rights of "Three Hundred Spartans", and then talk about other things.

After a while, Matthew sighed and said, "I can't do it, my work ethic doesn't allow me to do it."

Harvey Weinstein scoffs, work ethic? Do Hollywood stars have a work ethic?

"I signed an agreement with Sky Dance Pictures~www.wuxiahere.com~ Matthew's above sentence is of course a scene, and then he said, "If I withdraw from this project, I will pay tens of millions of dollars in liquidated damages, I can't afford it. "

In his agreement with Sky Dance Pictures, there are similar compensation clauses, but the amount is not very large, but the agreement is confidential, and outsiders have no way of knowing.

Then, he looked at Harvey Weinstein hopeful, "Harvey, if your company is willing to pay liquidated damages..."

"Well, Matthew!" Harvey Weinstein interrupted Matthew immediately, "It's almost time, let's go to the theater first, and talk about this another day, how about it?"

Matthew asked, "What about Oscar?"

Harvey Weinstein, somewhat embarrassed, waved his hand, "Let's talk another day, I'll make an appointment with you when I have time." He turned and walked away, "Let's do this for now, Matthew."

After saying that, he walked towards the door first.

Seeing Harvey Weinstein walk out of the VIP lounge, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief, and the matter was temporarily over.
