Int. Stratton Oakmont III - outside Jordan's office - day 125
(FEB `95)
Donnie stands talking with Jordan's assistant, Janet. Jordan approaches under a head of steam.
DONNIE There he is.
JORDAN (a quick hug; then) Steve here yet?
DONNIE On his way. Very excited.
JORDAN Good. Cuz we have a problem.
He indicates out to the Bullpen. Donnie and Janet look.
JANET (incredulous) Is he wearing a bow tie?
In the Bullpen WE SEE a young Stratton Broker in a bowtie cleaning a small goldfish bowl on his desk.
JORDAN He's got nothing better to do on the day of the biggest IPO in this firm's history?!
Jordan watches as Donnie marches toward the Broker in a bowtie...
INT. BULLPEN - CONTINUOUS 126
DONNIE The fuck you doing?
BROKER IN A BOWTIE (bewildered) Cleaning my fishbowl.
DONNIE Oh. 65. The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13
Donnie nods, turns to go, but suddenly he turns back and thrusts his arm in the bowl, grabbing for the squirming goldfish. The Broker in a bowtie looks on, horrified.
DONNIE(CONT'D) On new issue day?! On cocksucking, motherfucking new issue day?!
Dozen of Brokers and Sales Assistants look over as Donnie snatches up the fish. Holding it by its tail, he jumps * up on the desk of the Broker in a bowtie. Now the entire Bullpen looks over.
DONNIE(CONT'D) This is what happens when you fuck with your pets on new issue day!
With the flair of a showman, Donnie pops the fish in his mouth, swallowing it whole. The Brokers cheer wildly. Donnie jumps down, gets in the face of the Broker in a bowtie:
DONNIE(CONT'D) Now take your bowtie, get your shit and get the fuck out!
Bowtie is stunned. And as Donnie storms off, we PUSH IN on Jordan, watching from across the room.
INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - JORDAN'S OFFICE - DAY 127 (FEB `95)
Jordan finishes a phone call as Donnie enters with STEVE MADDEN, 30s, dressed in wrinkled navy blazer, cargo pants and T-shirt, a baseball cap over his scraggly, thinning hair. Jordan smiles, crosses to greet him.
JORDAN The Cobbler. Ready to get rich?
STEVE MADDEN Hey buddy.
And as they ad lib greetings, settle in at the couch:
JORDAN (V.O.) Steve Madden, the shoe designer, was a childhood friend of Donnie's, but I didn't hold that against him. Remember those ads, those giant-headed girls with bug eyes wearing those big clunky shoes?
127A INSERT - a quick series of Steve Madden ads. 127A 66. The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13
JORDAN (V.O.) He came to me a few years earlier when he was just starting out, so I became a silent partner in his company, buying an 85% stake for only a million bucks.
INT. STEVE MADDEN SHOES - DAY 128
WE SEE various stores, all packed with teenage GIRLS buying shoes and boots.
JORDAN (V.O.) The company blew up and we were now taking it public. It was the biggest deal we'd ever done and the hottest IPO on Wall Street.
INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - JORDAN'S OFFICE - DAY 129 (FEB `95)
Jordan and Donnie sit with Steve Madden in mid- conversation.
DONNIE --which is why they need to meet you.
JORDAN You gotta get `em fired up so they'll push the shit out of this stock.
DONNIE Let them feel your passion.
130 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - BULLPEN - DAY (FEB `95) 130
Bustling with activity. With Jordan and Donnie looking
on from nearby, Steve Madden approaches a microphone on the raised platform, in his hands several shoe boxes.
STEVE MADDEN (into mic) Uhhh... excuse me...
The place slowly comes to order.
STEVE MADDEN (CONT'D) For those of you who don't know me, my name is Steve Madden. I'm --
ONE BROKER We know who you are! 67. The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13
Steve clears his throat, looks over at Jordan -- he's terrified. Jordan motions for him to calm down.
STEVE MADDEN I uh, I'd like to start by telling you about my background in the shoe industry.
ANOTHER BROKER Nice fucking hat!
STEVE MADDEN I uh... first started working in the shoe industry, in a shoe store. When I was sixteen, my friends were out chasing girls, but I was learning about women's shoes.
KALIL PETER DEBLASIO * Move the mike closer. We can't fucking hear you!
He moves the mic; feedback SCREECHES through the bullpen.
STEVE MADDEN (CONT'D) Sorry... Anyway, my first job was at a shoe store like I said where I worked in the stockroom. You know, I can honestly say I've been a lover of women's shoes since I was twelve--
BROKER #4 Freak!
STEVE MADDEN No. Heh-heh. Not like that. I mean somehow I became fascinated with the endless design possibilities for women's shoes--
BROKER #5 BROKER #6 Queer! Get a fucking life!
Boos, hisses. Steve looks at Jordan, who motions for him to speed up. He grabs a shoe from one of the boxes.
STEVE MADDEN (CONT'D) This shoe -- the Mary Lou -- is the one that really put me on the map. It's a black patent leather variation of the Mary Jane, but--
SPLAT! A half-eaten grapefruit lands at Steve's feet. In a flash, Jordan rushes over, grabs the mic-- 68. The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13
JORDAN All right, let's hear it for Steve Madden and the wonderful Mary Lou!
Huge applause, with stomping feet; howling, etc.
JORDAN (CONT'D) Okay, now that you got that out of your system, I want you to know why Steve is so completely off the fucking wall... It's because this man is a creative genius. Steve's power, his gift -- is that he creates trends. Artists like Steve come along once a century! Elvis! Andy Warhol! Giorgio Armani! Who knows how high this stock could go? The 20s? The 50s? The 80s?
Applause; war whoops. Jordan motions for quiet.
JORDAN (CONT'D) I want everybody to look down. See that little black box in front of you? It's called a telephone. Now I'm gonna let you in on a little secret about this telephone -- it won't dial itself! That's right -- until you take some action, it's nothing more than a worthless hunk of plastic, like a loaded M16 without a trained Marine to pull the trigger. And in the case of the telephone, it's the action of you, a highly trained Strattonite, a killer who will not take no for an answer! A person who will not hang up the phone until his client either buys or fucking dies!
The Brokers go crazy. Jordan looks around.
JORDAN (CONT'D) I don't care if you graduated from Harvard or Bumfuck University or never got past fourth fucking grade! That phone is the great equalizer! (pause; looks around) There is no nobility in poverty. I've been rich, and I've been poor and I choose rich every time.
69. The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 JORDAN (CONT'D) At least as a rich man, when I have to face my problems, I show up in the back of a limo wearing a $2000 suit and $40,000 gold watch!
Jordan takes off his GOLD WATCH, flings it to the Crowd. Brokers go nuts, fighting over it like a home-run ball.
JORDAN (CONT'D) And if anyone here thinks I'm crazy, get the fuck out and get a job at McDonald's, because that's where you fucking belong! But before you depart this room full of winners, I want you to take a good look at the person next to you, because one day in the not-so- distant future, you'll be sitting at a red light in your beat-up old Pinto, and that person's gonna pull up in a brand new Porsche, with their gorgeous young wife at their side. And who will you be next to? Some ugly beast with three days of razor-stubble in a sleeveless moo-moo, crammed in next to you with a carload of groceries from the fucking Price Club!
He scans the Brokers; they're on the edge of their seats.
JORDAN (CONT'D) So you listen to me and listen carefully. Are you behind on your credit card bills? Good. Pick up the phone and start dialing. Is your landlord threatening to evict you? Good. Pick up the phone and start dialing. Does your girlfriend think you're a fucking loser? Pick up the phone and start fucking dialing! I want you to deal with your problems by becoming rich! I want you to go out and spend money! Leverage yourself, back yourself into a corner, let the consequences of failure become so fucking unthinkable that you'll have no choice but to do whatever it takes to win!
The Brokers go absolutely APESHIT. 70. The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13
JORDAN (CONT'D) You have an obligation here, people! To your clients! To this firm! An obligation to yourself, godammit! You ram Steve Madden stock down your clients' throats and make them choke on it till they buy 20,000 shares! Be aggressive! Be ferocious! Be telephone fucking terrorists!!
Before Jordan is even finished, the Brokers GO BERSERK, some already dialing their phones.
JORDAN (V.O.) (CONT'D) At 1 p.m. we opened the stock for sale at $4.50 a share. By 1:03 it was over eighteen dollars.
