Lance's outspokenness made Lang a little embarrassed.

It is not about the content of the words, but about Lance's expression without any concealment or politeness. It immediately expressed its position, and Lang really couldn't stand it. But it was precisely because of this that Lang felt more and more decisive in Lance's killing.

Angelina Jolie and Lance are not very good at dealing with each other. This is no secret in Hollywood. Angelina publicly expressed her disdain for Lance in an interview and had no intention of covering up. Moreover, Brad Pitt and Lance's tit-for-tat people also see it. You can imagine how Angelina, who is in love with Brad, will react now; Angelina, who dares to love and hate, will never have any concerns.

However, in this circle where interests are paramount, everyone knows that there is a bottom line in dealing with people to avoid getting into a dilemma in the future. Therefore, unless it is a deep hatred, few people will completely break up - even if it really happens, more will happen between actors. Due to the director's transcendent status, actors rarely have head-on conflicts with directors, especially famous big-name directors.

Lance is now a popular figure in Hollywood. Even if his talent is unrestrained, as long as he does not violate the bottom line, as long as Lance can continue to make money, he will be the darling of Hollywood. If the "Rampant Road" can still achieve good results this summer, then he will be truly unstoppable. At that time, Lance will speak out and refuse to cooperate with an actor, and the actor will definitely suffer.

Just like Universal Pictures, before confirming this project, Lang had investigated it in advance, and confirmed that Lance and Angelina were just a trivial matter. The two had never really dated, and those rumors of storm were all false; the two had never really broken up, and there was no head-on confrontation. Lang did not want to offend Lance, which led to the failure of the project cooperation, so after confirmation, he took the initiative to mention Angelina's intention to join today.

However, now it seems that things are obviously not that simple, and his investigation must have been made mistakes. Lance's directness, compared to the accident, was more curious about what happened between Lance and Angelina?

"So... are you worried about the proportion of the dividends of the film pay or the distribution of power of the producer..." Lang slowed down his speech and asked tentatively, and looked further at Lance's attitude, "If this is the case, you can be completely relieved that we have enough sincerity and we have enough trust in your abilities."

The implication is that Universal Pictures must still focus on Reims, and Angelina is not a problem at all.

Lance chuckled, then calmed down the curve of the corner of his mouth, and said with ease but without anger, "No, my words mean literally."

It seems to be a personal grudge, and there is no room for compromise. Lang smelled an abnormality and made a decision immediately, "Of course, of course, there is no problem. Those irrelevant people quit our planning blueprint." Give up Angelina and choose Lance, Lang made a choice without having to rethink it a second time.

Lance was a little surprised, not unexpected Lang's choice, but unexpected Lang's decisiveness.

Lance was not acting voluntarily. On the contrary, he kept a clear mind. Some people could cooperate, some could use it, and some did not need to spend any effort. Angelina obviously belonged to the last one. Lance had no tendency to be abused, nor did he intend to repay grudges with kindness, nor did he have the innocence to make wedding dresses for others.

"Then you send the story outline and the first version of the script. After I finish reading it, we will have a further conversation." Since Lang showed his sincerity, Lance did not act as a despicable and pretentious, and gave a positive reply generously.

Lang naturally also heard the friendship that reappeared in Lance's voice, and couldn't help but let out a breath. It can be heard that Angelina probably really offended Lance. After such gossip spread, Angelina's prospects in Hollywood will inevitably become bumpy.

Of course, this is not to say that because Lance alone, all film companies banned Angelina. Hollywood did not operate like this. But when major film companies prepare for projects, they will inevitably have a balance in their minds. If Lance is included in the consideration range, they will inevitably consider Angelina temporarily. Only after Lance refuses to cooperate will Angelina reappear on the consideration list. In short, Angelina's potential opportunities will be greatly reduced, and the chances of encountering excellent works will naturally plummet.

That unexplained "priority list" is how Hollywood works.

Between top directors and top actors, major film companies always stand on the director's side. The reason is very simple. There are countless actors and many excellent actors. However, truly outstanding directors are rare and rare. Directors who can make money for film companies and can kill all over the world during the awards ceremony season are rare. Just look at the list of Steven Spielberg's production works and the list of directors' works.

The director M-Knight Shamalan, who filmed the "Super Six Sense", was nicknamed "Six Senses of the Greatest Senses", which means that after the peak of the director's second work, "Super Six Senses of the Greatest Senses", Knight fell into the whirlpool of filming one work and smashing one work, and he would never turn over. But what's more funny is that after each work failed, he was magically able to receive projects again, killing all the six major Hollywood film companies, which is really ridiculous.

Why can Knight get projects after repeated failures? In addition to the hope of Wall Street's Indian capital to support internationally representative directors, the most important reason is that excellent directors are hard to find. The six major film companies always hold hope, what if the glory of the "supernatural sixth sense" is reproduced?

Even Knight can enjoy such treatment, not to mention Lance, who has never lost so far.

Lang can already foresee that once Lance's wanted order for Angelina leaked news, Angelina's career prospects in Hollywood will be struggling in quicksand. Lang has begun to think about how he should make the news of Lance's wanted order - since the industry will know sooner or later, he might as well sell Lance and take the initiative to spread it. Moreover, before the "Rampant Road" is released, he must take advantage of the stage when other competitors are still waiting and watching to win more opportunities for Universal Pictures.

"If necessary, I can arrange for you to meet Mark Miller, and you can personally share your views on the story and script." Lang actively provided help, which seemed to be the treatment after the signing of the Lance project, and his proactive attitude can be seen.

"Let me take a look at the story outline first." Lance politely declined Lang's kindness. Although he was interested in the "wanted order", he was far inferior to "Iron Man". He still kept his mind clear between choices. However, Lans paused and changed the subject. "I heard rumors last night that Universal Pictures is interested in bringing Bruce Banner's story to the big screen again recently?"

Bruce Banner, also known as the Hulk.

Lang obviously did not expect that Lance would take the initiative to mention this project, but if he thought about it carefully, he had received news at the moment. Lance showed enough interest in the adaptation of "Iron Man". In addition, the previous "Sin City", "Superman Returns", etc. If Lance is a comic fan, it is definitely not uncommon for him to hand over the "wanted order" to Lance, isn't it?

"We are discussing, but there is no clear direction yet." Lang gave an ambiguous answer, "You know, we have learned several lessons." The self-deprecating tone made Lance chuckle.

In Marvel comics, the popularity of the Hulk can be said to be second only to Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four, far exceeding that of Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, etc., who were enthusiastically sought after by people in later generations. The reason is that the Hulk is originally tragic. As a scientist, he is synonymous with elegance and intelligence, but he has mutated into a wild beast that loses his mind. People embrace the tragic heroic emotions of resisting authority but self-destruction in him, and empathize with it.

However, the Hulk's big screen journey was particularly bumpy. He put forward proposals many times, but failed to make a journey due to numerous reasons. Until 2002, Universal Pictures found Li/An to take over. Li/An, who had just conquered Hollywood with the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and was ambitious to make a big move, but the result made Li/An disheartened. On the one hand, the filming philosophy of large film companies made him stretched, and on the other hand, the humanistic care he injected into his works was incompatible with the popcorn style of commercial films. In the end, the "Hulk Hulk" did not win the box office or the reputation, and even made Li/An's career fall to a low point - which promoted the emergence of "Brokeback Mountain".

Now, Universal Pictures has once again put the Hulk project on the agenda, but this time they seem much more cautious and unwilling to act rashly, for fear of completely destroying the possibility of almost adapting the project in the future.

But Lance knew that the "Invincible Hulk" in 2008 still suffered a loss of reputation and box office, which made Universal Pictures lose confidence, which directly led to the complete hiding of the Hulk project. Although Universal Pictures agreed to share copyright, the Hulk appeared in the "Avengers", and the Hulk also won a lot of popularity, before Lance was reborn, Universal Pictures did not clearly state that it would restart the Hulk project.

Lance's brisk laughter came from the receiver, and Lang's thoughts slightly changed, "What? Are you interested in this project?"
