Early on Monday morning, Phyllis Beretta had breakfast, put on a black backpack, went out the door, turned around and looked at this small but very safe house, pushing the parked house in the yard. Bike out the door.

Now, she has completely come out of the grief and pain of the death of her parents in a car accident, and has gradually forgotten Queens, New York, because she has a new life in Los Angeles, can live in the city where Matthew lives, and can support Matthew's fans. Website work, these make her feel extremely happy.

Locking the door, getting on the bike, Phyllis Beretta looked back at the house again, maybe this is how life should be.

She left the house by bicycle and headed towards the Ximu District where the support website office building is located.

Twenty minutes later, she walked into the office, found her desk, sat down, and immediately went to work.

Since the accident of her parents, Phyllis Beretta has stopped being a frontline fan, and entered the website and became a professional screen fan. Her daily work revolves around Matthew, and almost all work content is related to Matthew related affairs.

This also makes her work enthusiasm every moment.

Phyllis Beretta turned on the computer and checked the email first. The supervisor distributes new tasks through the email every day. Today, her work task is based on the box office of "Superman Hancock" last weekend.

After reading the email and closing her mailbox, she hurriedly opened the official website of the box office tracker "Media Digital". Last weekend's box office bulletin had been released.

"This weekend is the US Independence Day holiday. According to the statistics of major theater chains in North America, "Superman Hancock" won a box office of 83.8 million US dollars under the leadership of 'Super Box Office Hero' Matthew Horner. Away from last weekend's champion "Robotics", become the dominant player in the North American film market on Independence Day."

"At the same time, this film starring Matthew Horner also created a North American opening record for a non-sequel original film!"

"Also, the animated feature film "Robots," produced by Pixar Studios and distributed by Disney Pictures, came in second with $29 million this weekend, taking a total of $122 million at the box office in its ten days of release. The comedy "Supermarket Agent" ” made $110 million, ranking third; the animated film “Kung Fu Panda” entered its fifth week of release and made $7.5 million at the box office, ranking fifth…”

Seeing this, Phyllis Beretta closed this webpage and opened another webpage.

The title of the page attracted her.

"Bad reviews are flying all over the sky, and the box office is rolling in!"

This review article seems to be full of maliciousness, but in fact its position is fairly neutral.

"The new film "Superman Hancock" starring Matthew Horner began to show last Thursday night, and it won $7.8 million in advance that night, surpassing "Iron Man", which was the first hit of the summer in North America. These three days Since then, the total North American box office of "Superman Hancock" has accumulated to 83.8 million US dollars. In the face of such solid figures, all the past bad reviews and so-called public opinion seem so insignificant, like floating clouds."

"Too many people started their curse a few days ago, and the famous film critic Roger Ebert yelled after watching the movie and gave it a star, but this Monday, he was inaugurated. The newspaper still had to open a page, reluctantly complimenting 'Superhero Hancock' with a headline. On Rotten Tomatoes, the critics voted a rotten score of 37 percent, which at best is nothing more than putting a green The Rotten Logo is just at the top of the site's box office charts."

Phyllis Beretta snorted, how many rotten tomatoes did Rotten Tomatoes throw at Matthew's movies, but did it work?

She shook her head, closed the Yahoo website, logged into the backstage of the support website, and forwarded the comments of fans on the website to major websites and social media.

Meanwhile, Hasbro President and CEO Brian Goldnow welcomed Stephen Sommers in his suite at the Four Seasons Hotel.

"Good morning, Stephen."

Brian Goldnow and Stephen Sommers shook hands and said, "Come to me so early, what's the matter?"

Stephen Sommers looked at the two suitcases in the suite and said with a smile, "If I hadn't come over earlier, you would have flown back to Rhode Island."

Brian Goldnow also looked at the pile of luggage and said, "No way, there is a very important board meeting at Hasbro headquarters on Wednesday, and I have to rush back."

"Well, I won't waste your time too much." Stephen Sommers said directly, "I'm here to tell you that our project can't be delayed any longer, and Hasbro has still Haven't you made up your mind?"

Originally, he and Paramount Pictures did a lot of talking to persuade Hasbro, an outside company, to agree to revise the script of "Special Forces" and use Matthew Horner as the real core to create the first "Special Forces". A live-action movie, not the previous fake protagonist and real ensemble drama.

During the ongoing negotiation, there was trouble. Hasbro was quite dissatisfied with the model of the basic salary plus global box office share demanded by Matthew Horner's agent Helen Herman, which caused the negotiation progress to be delayed again and again. No progress has been made yet.

With Hasbro accounting for half of the film's investment and the copyright owner of "Special Forces," the negotiations would have been impossible without their nod.

Brian Goldnow looked at his watch, and without going around in circles, said directly, "Matthew Horner and his agent are asking for $25 million plus 15 percent for the global box office. That's too much!"

Stephen Sommers answered immediately, "I have communicated with Matthew privately that the global box office can be reduced to ten percent."

"Ten percent is too high!" Brian Godnow said dissatisfiedly.

"Brian, have you considered it?" Stephen Sommers spread his hands, "Matthew Horner is worth the price!"

Brian Goldnow frowned but said nothing.

Stephen Sommers continued, "Over the weekend just ended, Matthew Horner's 'Hancock for All' took in about $83.8 million at the box office, and if you count the overseas territories at the same time, this action The blockbuster has grossed $178.9 million worldwide. Matthew Horner is proving once again that he is still a box-office hero, a summer guarantee, and the highest-grossing star in the world today."

"I know that." How could Brian Goldnow not pay attention to the latest developments of the stars who are ready to work together, "I will admit that Matthew Horner is the most box-office star in Hollywood today, and there seems to be a kind of 'Born to Succeed' mystical aura. With his commercial appeal, a $25 million paycheck isn't too much..."

His voice suddenly changed, "But 10% of the global box office share is still the early box office share, which is too high."

Stephen Sommers doesn't know what to say. The differences between the two sides undoubtedly come from differences of interest. This is often the most difficult thing to do. As one of the film's directors and producers, he has been waiting very anxiously recently. .

The failure of "Van Helsing" made him almost silent. This "Special Forces" is his best chance to turn over, and Matthew Horner is the key to it.

Brian Goldnow suddenly said, "Stephen, before Matthew Horner became famous, didn't you know him? You still have support for him, can you convince him..."

"Impossible." Stephen Sommers shook his head, "Just like I can't convince you right now."

"Yeah." Brian Goldnow nodded.

Stephen Sommers knew that Matthew had already taken into account the previous cooperation between the two, otherwise, with Helen Herman's tough attitude, it would be impossible for the global box office share to be reduced to 10%.

He briefly thought for two seconds, and then said, "The night of the premiere of "Superman Hancock" continued to have bad reviews, and the outside world once doubted whether Matthew Horner's stardom had turned a corner. Facts have proved that "Superman for All" Corker just further cements Matthew Horner's status as the world's highest-grossing star."

Seeing Brian Goldnow still in silence~lightnovelpub.net~ Stephen Sommers continued, "A comprehensive survey from Cinema says audiences have always felt special to Matthew Horner and his character. The audience always believes that he can bring a different and new movie viewing experience.”

"I will seriously consider it." Brian Godnow finally expressed an attitude, "I will return to the Rhode Island headquarters and will discuss this matter on the board of directors."

Stephen Sommers didn't think that Brian Goldnow could make a decision directly, nodded, and emphasized again, "If Matthew Horner is not the most valuable guy in the industry, then I really don't know who can count."

Variety, whose literary style has always been stable, also wrote a perceptual and powerful introduction such as "the world's biggest star is now a bigger name" when reporting on the weekend movie box office.

Seeing Brian Goldnow look at his watch again, Stephen Sommers took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye, saying, "I won't waste your time, I hope to get some good news."

"I hope so," Brian Goldnow said with a smile.

The two shook hands and said goodbye. Stephen Sommers walked out of the Four Seasons Hotel and stood at the entrance of the hotel, looking at the billboard not far away. On the huge billboard, Matthew Horner dressed as Hancock was looking down on Los Angeles.

The little actor he looked down on when he was filming "The Mummy Returns" is on the verge of becoming a superstar.

It won't be long before Matthew Horner will be regarded as a superstar who can compete with the likes of Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and Harrison Ford.

Thinking of this, Stephen Sommers can't help shaking his head and sighing. The world is changing so fast that he can't keep up with the rhythm.
