Chapter 167: Release time

Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

After leaving the crew of "The Scorpion King", Matthew has no job for the time being. Helen Herman is still selecting suitable projects and roles. Now he has gained a little fame. He has just played the leading role in a $40 million production. He has gradually developed some self-styled style. It is impossible to be as hungry as before. If you take on work, you must give priority to finding roles that match your own characteristics.

This is not to say that he has much capital to choose scripts and roles, but to operate a normal career. In the early stage, in order to accumulate experience and qualifications and earn basic expenses, he will of course take whatever he has. Now he cannot continue to be in such a state of rushing forward no matter what role he has.

For example, Helen Hermann, a villain in the traditional sense of Hollywood, does not allow him to take on such a role unless he is a role similar to Kevin Spacey in "The Seven Deadly Sins".

But she and Matthew both knew very well that the crew would not choose Matthew for such roles, as Matthew could not control such a complicated villain.

Therefore, at this stage, selective work is necessary.

Hollywood launches many projects every year, but the competition itself is extremely fierce. Even brokers like Helen Hermann who can borrow family relationship networks cannot find suitable projects at all times.

On the first day after Matthew said goodbye to the crew, he slept a long lazy sleep and did not get up until nine o'clock in the morning. After washing and breakfast, he walked around the small yard. He felt refreshed. The accumulated fatigue and the work pressure brought by the filming all disappeared without a trace.

With planned fitness and training, his excellent physical fitness has become more and more obvious, strong, responsive and energetic.

But the long-term accumulated large amount of exercise training also brought some troubles to Matthew. He felt that he was more impulsive than before. This impulse comes from the physical aspect. To put it simply, the desire for men and women is stronger.

My girlfriend can't stay by her side, and he doesn't want to be a masturbation god. Sometimes it's really uncomfortable, but fortunately, he has a relatively strong self-control ability.

Matthew occasionally discussed this issue with coach Niebola. In the so-called professional term, people who have been practicing high exercise for a long time have more oxygen in their blood, which is stronger than ordinary people's sexual requirements. Ordinary people who often exercise physically also maintain strong sexual ability. This is because during exercise, a kind of emotionally exciting endorphin substance can be released in the body. This substance is the natural endocrine that occurs in the body, which can make people feel happy and is of great benefit to increasing the maximum.

Neborah also showed him a magazine published in the United States. The magazine's survey of men showed that 95% of people had significantly improved their sexual function after three months of participating in exercise.

After ten minutes walking around the yard, Matthew returned to the house, turned on the computer, updated the blog first, and uploaded the stills handed over to him by the crew yesterday to the blog.

This is a still from yesterday's scene, and it is also a close-up of a single person standing on the platform with his head held high and his chest held high.

To describe it in Matthew's self-intoxication, the protagonist in this still has a very arrogant and arrogant aura.

"This is the protagonist of the Hollywood action blockbuster."

While muttering, he wrote under the stills, "My scenes in "The Scorpion King" have finally been filmed. I really want to see the video soon!"

Matthew didn't write much, so he posted it on the blog. Now his blog is following a lot, especially after the 9/11 incident, the number of followers has increased significantly.

In the report of the 9/11 incident, the blog was in the limelight and when other media had no idea, the live pictures and related blog posts had already started group bombing on the blog, and it was difficult not to attract attention.

Then, blogs are no longer a tool for niches on the Internet, and naturally come into the public's sight.

After posting the blog, he logged into msn. There were not many contacts on it, only Ilena Boyal was online.

It seems that I saw Matthew coming online, and Ilena Poyal sent a message.

"Big star, have your scene finished?"

Matthew thought for a while and replied, "The filming is over, do you want to interview me?"

The Internet in North America is developing very rapidly, with a huge number of Internet users, almost everywhere in the United States. Although the front page headlines on portals such as Yahoo Entertainment are incomparable to the industry's top Entertainment Weekly or Hollywood Reporter, they are still a hundred times stronger than ordinary entertainment magazines.

The last column news attracted a lot of attention for him.

"It's better to wait until your video is released." Ilena Boyal is also a pragmatic person. "You are not paying attention to hot topics now. Even if there are exclusive interviews, the editor-in-chief will not pass it."

"Oh oh oh, I still have no name."

"Very right, if you are a big star, it's not difficult to get on the front page."

Matthew chatted with Ilena Boyal on msn for about ten minutes. After Ilena Boyal went out with work, he also turned off msn.

He read the news online again and reported on the Afghan war everywhere. Last month, Bush and the federal government formally sent troops to Afghanistan, which was also a retaliation against the 9/11 incident.

This was too far away from him. After watching it for a while, I opened the blog again. There were already many messages under the blog posts and stills I just posted.

“The blogger is so cool, looking forward to your movie.”

"This look is more stylish than the Scorpion King in "The Return of the Mummy"!"

"When will the movie be released? I will support you at that time."

There are many similar comments.

After watching it, Matthew remembered that he forgot to post the release date of the movie and posted another blog post with the previous promotional poster.

"My new film "The Scorpion King" will be released in North America on April 10, 2002!"

The crew had already set a release date for "The Scorpion King". Initially, they wanted to set it on the weekend at the end of April to take advantage of the popularity of the summer season in May. However, after the trailer of the opening blockbuster "Spider-Man" next summer season was released, it caused extremely strong response. Universal Pictures immediately dispelled this idea and advanced the film to the weekend in mid-April.

According to past experience, the box office of typical entertainment blockbusters like "The Scorpion King" will basically be concentrated in the first three weeks or even two weeks after their release, which can avoid the possible impact of "Spider-Man". After all, judging from the response of the trailer, "Spider-Man" is recognized by the industry as a film that may be hit next summer.

However, the issue of "The Scorpion King" mentioned mid-April is not without its drawbacks, after all, April is the traditional North American film off-season.

But there are so many things in this world that are at the best of both worlds.

Especially Matthew, he thought this schedule was OK. If he was asked to choose, of course he had to avoid "Spider-Man". Thanks to the once Marvel's great and powerful magic, he had watched many Marvel comic popcorn at that time, and naturally he also watched the "Spider-Man" trilogy. He knew that this was an extremely successful series of movies, otherwise Sony Columbia Pictures would not have launched the Spider-Man movie when it encountered a crisis.

Scorpion King is a spider who is like an ordinary person who faces Spider-Man, and will definitely be beaten to the ground for teeth.

It’s not that he is self-deprecating, but that the objective situation is here.

After posting the blog, Matthew turned off his computer, checked the time, packed his fitness training supplies, put them in his backpack, prepared to go out and find a place to have lunch, and then go to the gym. Ordinary fitness programs are indeed a bit boring, but his interest in boxing and free fighting is getting stronger.

More importantly, these two sports seem to be quite suitable for him, and he is improving very quickly.

Before Matthew went out, his phone rang. After he connected, a familiar voice came from inside.

"Hi, Matthew." The voice immediately made Matthew sound the shark mouth on an animation, and said, "Long time no see, Michael."

There was Michael Fassbender over there, and he said, "I'm here in Los Angeles, James is here, are you in Los Angeles?"

"Here!" Matthew carried his backpack and walked outside. "I was about to go to the fitness club and had an appointment with a fighting coach in the afternoon."

"Let's get together that night."

Hearing Michael Fassbender's proposal, Matthew thought that it was okay tonight and said, "Okay, call James together."

"Of course I have to call him!" Michael Fassbender's voice came over again, "On Hollywood Avenue, there is a Black Mamba bar, do you know?"

The Red Penguin Services Company where Matthew worked was on Hollywood Avenue, and he was quite familiar with that.

"I know." He asked, "are you going there?"

"We meet at the Black Mamba Bar in the evening. I'll call James later, and he has time."

Matthew came out of the house, locked the door first, and said, "Okay, see you."

After hanging up the phone, he got into the car and drove to Ximu District. He had lunch at the Chinese restaurant he used to visit, and then went around the nearby small park. He also took a look at the dilapidated apartment building. These are the places where he once fought and lived...

At two o'clock in the afternoon, he arrived at the fitness club on time. He first practiced ordinary fitness events, which he regarded as a warm-up, and then went to the second floor to practice free fighting with a fighting coach in the boxing training hall.

It lasted until 5:30 pm, when Matthew left the training ground. Because he had an appointment with Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy, he did not return to Burbank. He took a shower and changed his clothes in the club's locker room and rushed to the Black Mamba Bar on Hollywood Avenue.

Hollywood Avenue is one of the concentrated areas of nightclubs in Los Angeles. Black Mamba Bar is one of the most famous ones. Its major shareholder is the famous Johnny Depp. Hollywood stars also appear in the bar from time to time.
