Chapter 165: Not Absent
"Director Rosenberg, could you share your thoughts on the Golden Raspberries?"
The media reporters clearly came prepared. Duke had barely reached the gates of Warner Studio when they swarmed him, shouting themselves hoarse with one question after another.
"Independence Day won only one Oscar for Best Visual Effects, yet it took seven Golden Raspberries. What do you have to say to that?"
"Has this been a blow to you?"
"Will it affect your career?"
A reporter wearing a CBS press badge suddenly squeezed to the front of the pack and shouted, "Director Rosenberg, regarding the massive failure of Independence Day—"
"Failure?"
Duke cut him off before he could finish. He stared dead at the reporter from the Columbia Television Network. "You consider Independence Day a failure? A commercial production that has currently grossed 905.78 million dollars worldwide is a failure? A movie watched by over 400 million people globally is a failure?"
Giving these reporters—who thrived on chaos—a cold look, Duke shook off their pursuit with the help of Warner Studio security and entered the lot.
