"All right!"

In the dark studio, the lights came on instantly, and someone shouted, "Fixed!"

Matthew looked up at the re-lit light, took the towel from Bella Anderson and wiped the sweat remaining on his forehead, shook his head slightly, "Warner Studio's equipment is out of date."

Helen Herman, who came to the studio specially today, said, "I feel like I can enter a museum."

But just after the voice fell, the lights in the studio flashed a few times and then went out again, and the entire set of "Three Hundred Spartans" fell into darkness again.

"Damn it!" Director Zach Snyder roared, "Can you guys fix it!"

Then, the emergency power supply turned on, and there was finally a light in the huge studio.

Zach Snyder was rarely angry, "Berson, can you fix it today?"

The man named Besson was the head of the crew's logistical support department. He immediately wiped his sweat and ran over, saying, "A whole set of supporting lines are aging. Depending on the current situation, they all need to be replaced."

Matthew heard this and said to Bella Anderson behind, "Pack up, let's prepare to withdraw."

He used to work on the construction site and knew that it was quite troublesome to replace this kind of line. It was already half afternoon, and there was no need to wait.

Bella Anderson was busy packing things, and Helen Herman stood up and said, "Exactly, I also have something to talk to you about."

Matthew nodded, and was about to respond when Zach Snyder's voice came from the set, "How long will it take to fix it?"

Besson replied quickly, "My people have already contacted the management of the studio, I promise! It will be back to normal tomorrow!"

Matthew also stood up from his chair. After a short pause, Zach Snyder said loudly, "That's it for today, and now it's over! Shooting will start at nine o'clock tomorrow morning!"

No one wants to encounter such an unexpected situation. When it occurs, we can only make appropriate adjustments to the shooting plan. Fortunately, it has always been smooth since the start of shooting. The shooting progress is already ahead of the plan, so there is no need to worry about too many delays. .

There was a power outage in the studio, so Matthew simply went to the make-up room in the trailer outside to remove his makeup, sat in a special Mercedes-Benz Big G driven by Brown Williams at the entrance of the studio, and went directly to Angel with Helen Herman. agency.

Entering Helen Herman's office, Matthew first went to pick up a glass of water, then pulled out his chair and sat down, asking, "Is there anything I can't talk about on set and in the car?"

Helen Herman sat across from him and said, "What was the medical examination you told me last time?"

The last time Matthew called her, she thought it was a normal physical examination at first, until she saw some hot gossip in the tabloid recently, and she couldn't help but have other speculations.

So, she asked again, "Have you been recruited?"

Matthew didn't answer, but instead asked, "If I get caught, what advice do you have?"

Listening to Matthew's tone, Helen Herman knew that he was fine, and deliberately said, "Cut it directly."

Matthew was speechless for a moment,

He scratched his head, and after a while, he said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm healthy."

Helen Herman nodded and said directly, "I've never interfered with you."

Matthew thought about it for a while, and it was true. Except for the first girlfriend he seriously dated, Helen Herman basically didn't interfere too much with his private life in the future.

"This is the norm in the circle, and it is impossible for my agent to limit you too much in this regard." Helen Herman continued, "And you have always been a person who knows priorities."

She urged seriously, "Take protective measures, if you get AIDS, you're done."

"Don't worry." Matthew was more vigilant and cared more in this regard, "I cherish my body very much."

If it weren't for this consideration and the threat of another scissors hanging over his head, he would have found more than a dozen female models from Liszt and had a big party.

Seeing Matthew's attitude, Helen Herman was relieved, and took the initiative to change the subject, saying, "Warner Bros. has recently used your $20 million salary to hype "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" and "I Am The legend, the effect is not bad.”

Matthew nodded slightly, and he understood this too.

Helen-Hellman added, "Disney Pictures also got in touch with me for the promotion of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Gathering of Souls", and it is estimated that they will join it soon."

"There are two companies, Disney and Warner Brothers." Matthew couldn't help laughing. "Is my reputation going to rise again?"

Helen Herman stretched out a finger, gently pushed up the glasses, and said, "The 20 million club itself represents great fame and very high status."

Now, she has gradually determined that Matthew has a considerable chance to cross the threshold of first-line and super-giant and become a superstar, provided that "Three Hundred Spartans" and "I Am Legend" can box office well. Sell, the next few films can also be a box office hit.

For some reason, she believed that Matthew could do it, just like the previous five films were all box office hits.

Helen Herman couldn't say where that confidence came from, but Matthew did give her that confidence.

However, the two "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Soul" and "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At the End of the World" were all excluded by her, and the first protagonist of these two films was Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow, Matthew's Will Turner role is heavy but not comparable to the Captain, which belongs to the Captain Jack Sparrow movie series, not the Will Turner Blacksmith series.

Even if these two sequels are successful and gain status, fans and paychecks, they are more aimed at this series. It is hard to say how many filmmakers and fans are willing to pay for the stars once the actors leave the series.

Real superstars are forged from a number of different movies, like two Toms and Harrison Ford, that are superstars worthy of the name, and superstars that only rely on one series are just the illusion of being superstars.

Helen Herman can see very clearly that Matthew's current conditions are very good. As long as he can seize the opportunity, it may not be possible for him to become the former.

"Your fame and status have soared now." Helen Herman also went to pick up a glass of water, took a sip, and said, "I renegotiated the contract with your two endorsement brands."

Matthew asked immediately, "Mercedes and Rolex?"

Helen Herman sat back on the chair and said unhurriedly, "I have already contacted Mercedes-Benz. Mercedes-Benz has basically agreed with the fact that the sales of Mercedes-Benz G-Class have increased significantly in the past year. Make adjustments to your endorsement contract, extending the contract period from the previous three years to five years, and the endorsement fee is fixed at $7 million per year.”

"Okay." Matthew was still very satisfied, "Did they mention any other special conditions?"

Helen Herman shook his head, "I only had preliminary contact with them. Mercedes-Benz is very satisfied with you. Except for the extension of the contract period and the increase in the endorsement fee, the terms of the previous contract remain unchanged."

She went on to say, "It's not very smooth for Rolex. My goal is to convert you from one of the plane spokespersons to one of the main spokespersons like Roger Federer, and it depends on the effect of the subsequent negotiations."

Matthew nodded lightly and said nothing.

"Also," Helen Herman said, leaning back in her chair, "Rolex is sponsoring this year's U.S. Open, and they've already said hello to me and hope you'll show up at this year's U.S. Open. , and at several events sponsored by Rolex.”

"When is the US Open?" Matthew doesn't know much about tennis.

After winning the endorsement of Rolex, because of the relationship between Roger Federer and the spokesperson, I went to know about it, and I also learned about Roger Federer, Leighton Hewitt, Martina Hingis and Anna- Kournikova and other tennis stars.

And the female tennis star who he always thought was similar to Irina Boyar, but couldn't remember the name, turned out to be Maria Sharapova.

Maria Sharapova was also named the "Most Beautiful Athlete" by Sports Illustrated this year.

However, he vaguely remembered that it seemed that Maria Sharapova had later become a standard Russian aunt, which seemed to be a common problem with Russian women.

"The end of August and the beginning of September." Helen Herman said at this time, "You should have a schedule, it is best to attend."

Matthew knew the truth of doing things with money, and said, "For the specific itinerary, you can negotiate with Rolex."

Although I am not a tennis fan, it is not a bad thing to go to the US Open to join in the fun. I remember that many celebrities love to go to similar occasions.

Helen Herman opened a notebook, made a note on it, and then said, "There is also a charity dinner, Amanda suggested that it be held on June 25th, not at your home, but rent a large private club.”

Seeing that Matthew had no objection, she continued, "I made a list with Amanda, and I will send invitations to most of the well-known people in the circle."

Matthew is not a rookie before. Knowing that this kind of invitation is sent out, the other party may not be present, because being present basically means making a donation.

Helen Herman's words didn't stop, "If one-tenth of the people invited come, this event will shake the nation."

She pushed over a list, and Matthew simply opened it and looked at it. There were hundreds of names on it, and the top ones were all big Hollywood stars, big directors, and first-line producers.

In this regard, Matthew does not intend to directly intervene, and the specific work is still handed over to Amanda and Helen Herman. )!!
