Chapter 1147: Stars Are Not a Big Deal
There are already more than 2,000 stars on the Walk of Fame, and one or two new stars are added every month, a tradition that has lasted for more than 40 years.
Each star has been specially treated as a light red five-pointed star with a copper rim with a person's name on it, as well as a symbol symbolizing the person's identity.
If it is a great contribution to the field of television, the symbol of television will appear, and if it is the film industry, it will be the video camera.
There are also gramophone symbols, which indicate a contribution to the recording industry, a mask, a contribution to theatrical performances, and a radio microphone that represents the broadcasting industry.
However, in this day and age, there are fewer and fewer artists, mainly Hollywood stars who want to make a name for themselves everywhere.
Taking a photo with the stars is an inevitable choice for almost every visitor to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Yu Aoi, Masami Nagasawa and others are no exception.
They happily searched for the pentagram of every well-known star, and then they swarmed up and asked Don to help them take pictures.
Take a picture with Donne?
It doesn't have to be.
Now Don has gone through makeup, and he is no longer Don En.
"Wow! Jack Chen, Jack Chen, come and take a picture!"
Yui Aragaki saw the familiar name, she was still an Asian actor, and she was very happy, so she hurriedly beckoned her sisters over and took pictures together.
"Oudo-chan, are there Japanese stars here?" After taking the photo, Yu Aoi couldn't help but ask.
Don En pouted, he really didn't know, "I only know that there is a Godzilla star over there, so it should also be Japanese, right?"
"Godzilla! I'm not talking about monsters!"
Yu Aoi chuckled, then shook his fist in protest.
"Wow! Marlon Brando, I like her best, come on!" On the other side, Masami Nagasawa made a new discovery, and greeted everyone with joy.
Don could only keep up quickly.
There are too many tourists here, and these five beautiful girls are too beautiful to attract a lot of attention.
Fortunately, Don En was dressed in disguise, with the image of a lewd man, and not too many people paid attention to it.
However, Don still used his eyes to signal to the plainclothes bodyguards around him, always vigilant.
Don't look at Hollywood, which is the most prosperous city, Asian faces are the most vulnerable group to bullying.
After a burst of giggling and taking pictures, finally people couldn't help it again and asked the key question.
"Odu-chan, where are your stars?"
"yes, where's your star?"
"Hmm! we're going to take a picture!"
……
The girls gossiped, and Tang En quickly silenced them, shook his head, and said, "I didn't keep any stars." ”
"How could it be!"
The women were taken aback.
He's Donn Walker!
The world's most powerful giant in the entertainment industry!
His name should be left here and passed on forever, right?
Don En explained with a smile: "Don't say it, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce did contact me a few times and wanted me to leave my name here, but I refused." ”
"Why?"
These girls, who have never seen the world, say that it is difficult to understand.
Tang En said: "These five-pointed stars are actually an industry. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and the Hollywood History Trust are jointly responsible for forming a Walk of Fame Committee. Each year, they select a group of awardees, that is, stars who are eligible to be named on the Walk of Fame. However, there are strings attached. ”
"Each recipient pays $15,000 for the production and security maintenance of the Pentagram. The money is nothing, and the trouble is another condition, the recipient must attend the annual award ceremony within five years of the name. It's terrible, who has time for this kind of little event in that awards season time slot?"
"So, a lot of big people who are too busy with work, or who are not interested in it, refuse to leave their names here. Not only me, but also Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, and the popular Leonardo DiCaprio and Angelina Jolie are not named. Cameron, Lucas, Coppola and other big directors have not left their names. ”
This explanation can be said to be very comprehensive.
The girls all understood, and they all nodded.
The interest in these dazzling little stars is not so high.
It turns out that the top bigwigs don't come to participate in this name game.
Only those celebrities who are retired or outdated, with plenty of time, will come here to make a name for themselves. The big artists rely more on their works to speak, rather than on such small tricks.
Next, there is the Chinese Theater.
The so-called Chinese theater is indeed full of Chinese characteristics. However, after nearly a hundred years of evolution, except for a pair of stone lions at the door, the Chinese style has changed too much, and it is not authentic.
However, the name and footprints of John Wu at the door are more eye-catching.
Next, it was a group photo.
John Wu's fame is super big in Japan, especially the historical masterpiece "Red Cliff" that is being prepared, and Japan's attention to this is even higher than that of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.
The culture of the Three Kingdoms creates more than twice as much value in Japan every year as it does in Japan combined.
After the group photo, you will find the famous Kodak Theater.
This is where the Oscars are held.
Very many tourists.
At the entrance of the Kodak Theater, there is a very spectacular large fountain.
Tourists are taking pictures outside the fountain.
However, two Asian female tourists didn't know what was wrong with their brains, so they rushed in directly during the interval of the fountain, giggling and excited, beckoning their companions to take pictures of them quickly.
The rest of the tourists looked at them with a very contemptuous look.
What should I do if I step on a broken fountain pipe?
Aragaki Yui glanced at it, her face a little displeased.
Because after the two female tourists broke in, the eyes of the other tourists looking at their line of work were also strange.
"They're certainly not Japanese, I'm sure!" Aragaki said, puffing up.
Don En's expression was solemn, his mood was even heavier, and he waved his hand, "Let's go, the Walk of Fame has been finished, let's go to Universal Studios in front." That's my territory, so we'll be easy. ”
Universal Pictures is right in Universal Studios.
Don is really uncomfortable in this outfit.
I went to Universal Pictures and had to remove my makeup quickly.
This thick clothes are also sweaty.
When I went to Universal Studios, everyone's playfulness was greatly reduced.
Universal Studios in Los Angeles and Universal Studios in Osaka are not much different.
simply went straight to the headquarters of Universal Pictures.
Don hired a makeup artist to help him remove his makeup.
"By the way, you're just in time, and I have something to report to you. Amy Pascal appeared in the dressing room at some point.
Don closed his eyes and asked casually, "What's the matter?"
"Warner Bros., Columbia Pictures, and Paramount, have just signed a friendly mutual assistance agreement for the distribution of the film. In the future, the films of these three companies will be staggered as much as possible when they are released, especially blockbusters, to avoid box office competition. ”
"Is this legal?"
"This is not a bidding alliance, and the Ministry of Justice says it is difficult to charge. ”
"I see. Don still closed his eyes and nodded slightly, "Who do you think the pusher is?"
Amy Pascal said: "I don't think it's very likely that Mr. Burke is that NBC Columbia Pictures has already made two offers to the USA television network. ”
The corners of Donn's mouth curled, a little cold, "That's Warner." Not to mention, in line with Barry Meyer's means. ”
