At United Nations Headquarters, he took part in a press conference convened and chaired by the Secretary-General to further improve his proficiency.

Matthew reiterated his call for society to help children around the world realize their fundamental rights to survive, thrive, be protected and participate.

Through his status as a Hollywood superstar, Matthew has a terrifying global reputation, and these public welfare undertakings will help him further improve his social status.

Through years of hard work, in addition to Hollywood superstars, Matthew has also successfully established several other aspects of the character.

Therefore, Matthew relatively cherishes feathers.

Elizabeth Holmes' invitation, he declined directly using Helen Herman as a shield, but what Matthew did not expect was that after returning to Los Angeles, the Angels Agency received an official invitation from Elizabeth Holmes .

"The other party offered a salary of 10 million US dollars as a condition."

In the reception room of Horner Manor, Helen Herman said to Matthew, "And there is room for negotiation."

Matthew sat on the rattan chair, looking a little lazy, and said with emotion, "What a big hand." He turned to ask, "Have you checked about her and her company?"

"How do you say it." Helen Herman organized the language, "Business rookie, future super-rich woman, but urgently needs investment."

She didn't talk nonsense, and said directly, "I suggest giving it up. This belongs to the category of medical supplies. It's best not to touch it if you can."

Matthew nodded lightly, "I didn't even think about picking it up."

In addition to maintaining the original Rolex, Armani and Mercedes-Benz, he has stopped accepting advertising endorsements for the past two years.

Helen-Hellman added, "Elizabeth-Holmes's purpose is obvious, want to use your fame and influence to create a sensation, and then pull more venture capital."

Matthew thought about it and said, "Just refuse."

Helen Herman didn't say more, but said, "Elizabeth Holmes' company is in California. When she called me before, she said she wanted to find time to talk to you alone, and she would give it to you. Call up."

"I see," Matthew said.

Helen Herman was about to leave and reminded before leaving, "Be careful when dealing with a woman like Elizabeth Holmes."

Matthew resisted the urge to roll his eyes, "Don't worry, I can tell the difference."

Speaking of which, is he the kind of middle-schooler who doesn't care if he sees a beautiful woman?

How could someone who started a business in his early twenties and can now raise money with Rupert Murdoch look down on him?

"By the way, there is one more thing." Helen Herman remembered something again, "From May, you will cooperate with Warner Bros. to promote the "Inception" crew."

Matthew nodded, "I see."

Like Christopher Nolan's previous commercial productions, "Inception" was placed in July this year, and it was the best schedule in July, the weekend before the Independence Day holiday.

Photographed in the name of him and Christopher Nolan, there are no major productions at all on the same weekend.

However, like all summer stalls, Inception was crowded around its opening weekend, with Universal's Despicable Me the next weekend and Sony Columbia Pictures' Kung Fu the previous weekend. ".

Because of the name of kung fu, Matthew also specially learned about it. This is a film that Jack-Chen made for Will-Smith's son.

Having said that, Will Smith really worked hard for his son, but Will Smith stood on the opposite side of him a long time ago.

Perhaps "Inception" can impact the next weekend box office of "Kung Fu Dream".

This is not Matthew's intention. In the past few Independence Day schedules, the films he starred in have all sold well, which undoubtedly gave a hint to the inside and outside of the circle. Although there is no superstition here, but along the success It is undoubtedly recognized that it is easier to succeed if you continue on the road.

In this case, there is no reason for Warner Bros. not to choose the high-quality schedule of Independence Day, and the appeal of Matthew and Christopher Nolan is not ordinary.

Matthew never thought that the movies before and after the weekend could threaten "Inception". The audience of "Despicable Me" is very different from "Inception". As for "Kung Fu Dream"...

Will Smith, who has had almost no outstanding works since "When Happiness Comes Knocking", is far worse than he used to be at this time in terms of fame and appeal, otherwise he would not have taken on the role of superheroes.

His son, Jaden Smith, has even less attention.

Compared with "Kung Fu Dream", Matthew is more concerned about the film that will be released the weekend before the film, "Alien Battlefield" directed by Andrew Stanton and starring Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman .

The $250 million blockbuster production is finally set to hit theaters this summer.

Matthew is looking forward to this film. Will "Alien" make Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman soar, or will it sink completely? No one can draw conclusions now.

But one thing, Matthew is very clear, due to the huge financial crisis and the amount of debt caused by the failure of "Cloud Atlas", "Alien Battlefield" is only a general success, and it will not play a role in turning things around for Brad Pitt. .

To get out of the predicament completely, Brad Pitt can only bet that "Alien Battlefield" will explode at the box office.

If nothing else, at least it must have the box office figures of "Alice in Wonderland" released this year.

Without an excellent box office, it is impossible to sell the ideal price for the peripheral copyrights that occupy the bulk of the income.

Maybe Plan B and Brad Pitt can't make it this year?

Like last year, this year is still a big movie year for Matthew. In addition to the starring "Inception", there is also "Iron Man 2" that participated in the investment in early May. Lurking" will also enter North American theaters, and "Twilight Saga 3: Eclipse" will also be on the Thanksgiving schedule.

These films are very important to him, and Hollywood is the foundation of what he is doing today.

After sending Helen Herman away, Matthew had a phone call with Christopher Nolan and exchanged some information about the pre-screening promotion of "Inception". After hanging up, he suddenly remembered something.

Haven't seen the USB drive that Andy Weir gave him.

Matthew called Bella Anderson, and as soon as he got back to Los Angeles, he gave Bella Anderson a USB flash drive and asked her to copy it over.

"It's a very interesting novel." Bella Anderson had obviously read it, and gave a good evaluation of the novel, which is far from complete. "I think it has some adaptation value."

She also specifically reminded, "I found some Andy Weir information and sent it to you together."

After ending the call, Matthew immediately went to the study to turn on the computer, logged in to his work mailbox, and saw the email from Bella Anderson.

He first opened Andy Weir's profile and took a look.

Andy Weir wrote on the Internet when he was 20 years old, but the things he wrote were not paid attention to. He is currently working at Blizzard Entertainment and has previous writing experience. He led and participated in the writing of part of the plot of Blizzard's signature masterpiece "Warcraft" .

Plus, he's a tech nerd.

So far, Andy Weir has not officially published any of his works, and his influence is still on the Internet.

Originally, Matthew thought that Andy Weir was looking for him to sell the copyright of the "Warcraft" movie, but now he opened the file in the mailbox, only to find that this has nothing to do with magic games, but pure science fiction.

Unlike Marvel and DC's superhero comics, this is a genre of hard sci-fi rarely seen in the film industry today.

Nowadays, hard sci-fi movies have long since declined, and even gradually faded out of the mainstream Hollywood commercial movies~lightnovelpub.net~ It is difficult to see hard sci-fi genres in the top ten of the North American box office rankings every year. The film rights of science fiction are also not taken seriously by Hollywood producers.

It's no wonder that Andy Weir will take the initiative to sell.

On the one hand, he has no previous successful qualifications, and on the other hand, it is related to the general market environment.

Seeing that it was a hard science fiction novel, Matthew's interest was also less, but the emails were opened and he read it.

Including him, many people are afraid of reading science fiction, especially hard science fiction, mainly because they feel that there are too many scientific terms and scientific concepts are too advanced to fully understand.

But Andy Weir's novel solves this problem super cleverly. In the novel, he points out the story background and theme of the novel very early: the astronaut hero who has an accident needs to survive alone on Mars A year and a half.

Moreover, the time point set for the entire story, as well as the scientific and technological means used in Mars exploration, are based on various versions of NASA's Mars plan in reality, and all solutions for the male protagonist's survival are also calculated step by step. .

Every time the male protagonist encounters a problem, it is basically this kind of development routine to analyze the problem, make assumptions, verify on a small scale, determine the plan, and implement it...

In this way, even the reader, Matthew, feels that every detail is unbelievably real.

This palpable sense of reality is probably the most fascinating part of the novel.

Some people say that the greatest compliment to hard science fiction is that it is "written as if it were real".

There is also the setting of the male protagonist, which is not the kind of cold and compulsive, but unusually down-to-earth.

No matter how difficult the environment the hero faces, even if it is desperately difficult, humor and optimism can still shine in his lines. 2k novel reading network
