Chapter 1060: Clarifying the Misunderstanding
Noisy, noisy, vigorous.
On one side, movie fans and audiences surrounded Sony Columbia's headquarters in New York and Los Angeles respectively, making their voices heard with an absolutely tough attitude.
On the other hand, Hollywood colleagues finally broke the silence and united as one——
It is not so much that the young Anson has such connections and momentum now, but that the agency has sensed it. Opportunity and tacit understanding.
The actors are once again on the same side, standing together on the opposite side of the studios, ready to pull the levers.
Tom Hanks just blew the horn.
If someone thinks that Tom Hanks is really a loyal and honest good guy, that would be stupid. It is undeniable that Tom is indeed a good guy, but the honest comment is completely wrong.
Tom's ability to remain in the industry for thirty years is definitely not just based on his charisma.
How to judge the situation, how to be measured, and how to compete and compete. Only by understanding these can we truly win a place in Vanity Fair.
Right before his eyes, Tom realized the situation, so he chose to open the microphone boldly.
Of course, Tom and Anson are friends?
There is no doubt about this, so Tom’s attitude is even more determined.
One after another, other actors appeared one after another.
Ryan Gosling, Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Aniston, Rachel McAdams, Charlie Kaufman, Steven Spielberg and Gary Marshall all Speaking out, Kate Winslet, who had not been on the road for a long time, also accepted a phone interview and expressed her position.
Then, Kristen Dunst, James Franco, Alfred Molina and other "Spider-Man 2" cast members also publicly expressed their stance and stood unitedly behind Anson.
One after another.
In just a few hours, voices of support sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the whole of Hollywood was noisy.
Sony Colombia is in trouble.
Despite the impromptu board meeting, there is not much they can do.
When faced with such a dilemma, Michael Linton calmed down.
Depressed, angry, aggrieved, annoyed, and bitter.
All of these negative emotions are real and exist objectively.
But Michael knew that these emotions would not help solve anything.
Michael was able to withstand the pressure, sit in the hot position of CEO, and start a head-on confrontation with another CEO. How could it be possible without two brushes, and how could he be easily disarmed?
There is ample time.
He should not focus on the immediate victory or defeat, nor should he lose his mind because of briefly hitting the wall.
At present, controlling the situation and solving problems are the most important things; he must prove to the board of directors that he is still useful, and the board of directors should continue to keep him and wait and see what happens.
Take a deep breath, and then exhale a long breath.
Michael has regained his composure and walked towards the board of directors.
In 2003, although we have fully entered the Internet era, and information is updated at a very fast speed, the update calculation unit is still based on days or even weeks, and we have not entered the era of hours, minutes and seconds as measurement units for the time being.
However, something happened in Hollywood that shocked countless people -
In just one day, Sony Columbia issued two official statements.
Once in the morning and once in the evening.
Such a scene is very, very rare in Hollywood. Entertainment news is not stock market news, so there is really no need to update it so fast.
But Sony Columbia did it anyway.
In this official statement, Sony Columbia said with great grievance:
They sincerely hope that Anson can recover as soon as possible, but considering the doctor’s diagnosis, Sony Columbia has to consider Another possibility -
Maybe Anson will not be able to return to the set within three months. Although sad, the crew was eager to see the movie with the audience, so they had to start thinking about second and even third alternatives.
That's why they audition those actors.
“But this is only a last resort.”
In the statement, Sony Columbia unswervingly stated its position.
They never planned to replace Anson, and sincerely hope that Anson can recover as soon as possible and return to the crew. Sam Raimi is still waiting for his Spider-Man Returns.
In the Sony Columbia dictionary, Anson is the best and only Spider-Man.
Bah bah bah, blah blah blah, and so on.
To put it simply, the audition was real, it was just a forced move; the replacement was fake. Sony Columbia supports Anson 100%, and the entire crew is waiting for Anson to return from injury.
So, those rumors and rumors can all stop.
In extreme difficulties, Sony Columbia still showed decisiveness.
Quickly put an end to all the chaos, and finally gave an official commitment——
Anson is still Spider-Man.
And, this time Sony Columbia moved out Sam.
The reporters immediately saw the director called. This honest man also has his own cleverness.
Sam's answer seemed very clever, "I've been waiting for Anson."
Didn't tear down Sony Columbia, but at the same time expressed his personal position.
Only insiders can appreciate the scenes behind the scenes.
But, to Gloria and Blair, this is not important.
The only important thing now is that Sony Columbia finally gave in, clarified all misunderstandings with an official statement and expressed its continued support for Anson.
This is enough.
If Sony Columbia continues to brave the world's criticism to replace Anson, I am afraid that they will encounter unanimous rejection from the audience, media and industry insiders, and even "Spider-Man" will encounter a collective boycott.
Sony Columbia isn't taking any chances.
"Ahhhh, ahhhhh!" Blair shouted crazily in disbelief, "We did it, we actually did it!"
Things, it seemed like everything Nothing has changed, Anson continues to play Peter Parker, this should have been a matter of course, now it is just getting back on track, there is no need to celebrate.
But things have quietly changed. The entire Hollywood, including Sony Columbia, and even the North American continent have all felt Anson's appeal and influence.
It is no longer the pursuit of the media, nor the invisible and intangible momentum, but the real power that can turn the situation around.
This is the point.
Obviously, Anson is making history, quietly changing the general perception of Hollywood, and truly becoming another superstar after Leonardo DiCaprio.
“This is just the beginning.” Gloria hugged the friends around her with excitement and enthusiasm, excitement and excitement surging in her eyes.
They actually forced a giant crocodile like Sony Columbia into such an embarrassing situation, proving once again that ants killing elephants is not a dream.
Then, Elaine's eyes widened, a little disappointed and a little worried.
"I don't know how Anson is recovering now."
Joy to joy, this is undoubtedly a crucial victory.
But they should not forget the reason why it all started, let alone the object they are trying to protect.
Looking towards the north one by one, trying to find the location of Mount Sinai Hospital.
