"Angelina Jolie is breaking up with Brad Pitt?"

In the reception room, Matthew was not surprised to hear the news brought by Helen Herman, "It's just a choice to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages." ”

Helen Herman took a cup of coffee and said, "There's definite news that Angelina Jolie has moved out of Brad Pitt's residence and back to one of her homes in Beverly Hills. ”

Matthew can understand Angelina Jolie's approach, "More than $180 million in debt, in exchange for me to say goodbye to people." ”

As a special profession created by Vanity Fair, Hollywood stars are very realistic, and he is no exception.

"I've heard people mention that Brad Pitt wants Angelina Jolie to help him plug the debt hole. Helen Herman said the latest rumors, "and then Angelina Jolie broke up with Brad Pitt. ”

Matthew took a sip from his glass and said, "That's crazy. He sighed, "Speaking of which, these two men only came together because of us." ”

Helen Herman nodded slightly, in order to compete for the male lead in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", she, Matthew and Elena Boyard single-handedly designed and planned Jennifer Aniston's rape incident, which directly led to the divorce of Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, thus making Brad Pitt throw himself into the arms of Angelina Jolie.

"Does this count as the causal cycle preached by the church?" Helen Herman joked, "because you brought them together and broke up because they stole your project." ”

Matthew shrugged, "None of this has anything to do with me. ”

Helen Herman put down her coffee cup, "Angelina Jolie is thankfully not married to Brad Pitt, and Brad Pitt is finished." ”

Matthew nodded slightly, it was impossible to be an old man with such a huge loan as Brad Pitt.

Soon, the news spread throughout Hollywood, and Angelina Jolie's spokesperson also called a press conference to announce Angelina Jolie's breakup with Brad Pitt.

The reason for the breakup, of course, will not be Brad Pitt's failed investment and astronomical debt.

Angelina Jolie claimed that Brad Pitt had been a long-term alcoholic and extremely emotionally unstable, and for the sake of the children's growth, she resolutely separated from Brad Pitt as a mother.

It's not just Matthew who will build himself tall, it's also a trick used by other Hollywood stars.

The two are neither married nor engaged, and the breakup is much less involved.

Otherwise, the division of property alone may bring a huge storm and even evolve into a protracted super gossip like Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman.

Maybe Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt came together because of love, but there are too few loves in Hollywood that can stand the test.

Without a reliable prenuptial agreement, the divorce of any Hollywood star means that a super vomit of blood is bound to occur.

For example, at the beginning of this year, Morgan Freeman, who was entangled in the scandal of grandchildren's twilight love, officially completed the divorce procedures with his wife and got together with his step-granddaughter, perhaps they are also true love, because Morgan Freeman's divorce needs to pay more than 100 million dollars in compensation and alimony to his ex-wife, which is not an exaggeration to describe as bankrupt.

To a certain extent, Matthew still admires Morgan Freeman, after all, not everyone dares to play like this.

Maybe he has never been married, and when he gets old, he will also want to find a young and beautiful girl.

As a rich and famous man, this is not a difficult task, and many women who are born with good capital like to do this kind of short-term investment with low input and high output.

Of course, some women who want to make quick profits from short-term investments may also be trapped.

Morgan Freeman has almost openly stayed with his step-granddaughter, but the old man continues to take on the roles he should take, and he continues to win the awards he deserves, and his career has not been affected at all, except for the fact that he is almost bankrupt.

From Matthew's point of view, a celebrity who has this kind of scandal will suffer a fatal blow, but in North America and Hollywood, it seems that none of this is a problem at all.

The situation on both sides of the Pacific is very different, and on the other side of the Pacific, Morgan Freeman would have been finished long ago.

It can only be said that there is not only the social environment in North America, but also the media and the audience who know what kind of fuck the Hollywood stars are.

Most of the Hollywood stars, like Matthew, have few people to hide their private lives.

Veteran actresses like old cows to eat tender grass, young actresses take the initiative to approach famous male stars, and famous male stars are busy logging in addition to their careers.

Many people play too many games of men looking for women and women looking for men, so much that they are tired of the opposite sex, so the phenomenon of men and women pairing has increased dramatically, and even bisexuality has continued to emerge.

If you want to find a chaste martyr and don't come to Hollywood, this circle is all about looking at each other, and if you get a relationship, you can maintain a formal relationship, and if you can't get a relationship, you can put your pants and go back to your home.

If someone is officially dating several Hollywood actresses at the same time, it is conceivable that the green on his head can become a prairie.

Even the famous good woman Meryl Streep can have a fight with someone in marriage.

Maybe Hollywood really has good women, but Matthew didn't meet them.

Having said that, Angelina Jolie has indeed had a tendency to turn back in the past two years, and it probably really works to be the mother of a bunch of children.

Brad Pitt is not married to her, and even if she goes bankrupt next, it is impossible to get alimony from Angelina Jolie.

For example, divorce alimony and the like are not divided between men and women.

Two years ago, Madonna divorced British director Guy Ritchie, and Madonna paid her ex-husband Guy Ritchie at least $75 million in alimony, including cash and assets, and this divorce "break-up fee" set a record for a man to receive alimony from a woman.

At the same time that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt broke up, Matthew got good news that Clint Eastwood agreed in principle to direct the film adaptation after reading the autobiography of "American Sniper".

Of course, this is only a preliminary intention, and there are still a lot of variables until a formal agreement is reached.

Matthew put Bella Anderson in charge of negotiating a director's contract with Clint Eastwood.

This isn't a director like Sofia Coppola or Patty Jenkins, Clint Eastwood is a veritable A-list director in Hollywood, and Matthew is ready to shell out big pay.

On the other hand, he also had to assemble a team of writers to adapt his autobiography into a screenplay.

But now he doesn't have time, and these things will be left to Helen Herman and Bella Anderson for the time being.

Matthew's main task during this period of time is to promote "Inception", which will be released on Independence Day.

In addition to the usual promotional tactics, Warner Bros. used viral marketing in the promotion of Inception.

As early as last year, when the filming was completed, the first phase of viral marketing was launched, and the professional team of Warner Bros. used the way to cast a net to arouse the curiosity of the public.

When Warner Bros. first opened the official website of Inception last year, most people were confused about the spinning top on the website - what is this film about, what is the relationship between the spinning top and the plot, and what does the title "Inception" mean?

The seasoned Warner Bros. marketers did not play their cards early like other films, but continued to put out clues to let the public know about the film, but more question marks appeared, so as to ** the curiosity of fans, so that they spread the word of mouth and continue to pay attention to the film.

Matthew had long heard Christopher Nolan say that the marketing team of "Inception" had a complete plan when filming, and the viral promotion of the film should be balanced, neither covering nor unreserved, that is, not only to familiarize the audience with the film in advance, but also to make them still fresh when watching the film.

This is easier said than done, many films do not grasp this degree when they are promoted, and as a result, the audience already knows everything about the film before watching it, and loses the excitement of watching the movie.

Therefore, the marketing team of Warner Bros. did not start with the plot, but started from the core creative ideas of the film, such as "dream machine technology" and "consciousness crime", emphasizing the promotional slogans such as "your brain is the crime scene" and "dreams are real".

In this way, the audience will have a preliminary understanding of the key settings of the film before watching the movie, and it will be much easier to watch the movie.

Movies that cannot be understood by the audience will inevitably not be a big seller, which is one of the most basic laws of the film market.

One of the most important points of viral marketing is to arouse the interest of others, and no matter how much you don't have interest, it is a waste.

Now that the film is about to be released, the marketing team of "Inception" adjusted its direction in time, combined with the publicity notices of Matthew and other main creative teams, moved the marketing activities from online to offline, and hung giant posters on the landmark buildings on the streets of major cities across the United States such as New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.

The posters are mainly composed of two main contents: one shows the façade of the building curling to reveal the inner floors, and the other is a flood water that slopes down from the windows on the top floor of the building......

The poster is very shocking, and it is also very in line with the slogan of the later stage of the film - the dream is real, once it was released on the Internet, it was quickly reprinted by large and small websites, successfully attracting people's attention and making another contribution to the film.

Viral marketing is a means, not an end, and getting it right can often play a role of one or two thousand pounds, but the commercial success or failure of a film does not depend entirely on the success or failure of viral marketing.

As Christopher Nolan said to Matthew, viral marketing is an interesting thing, but if the film itself doesn't work, who cares what the hell you do online and offline.

If the quality of the film is not too hard and cannot be recognized by the majority of the audience, after the film is released, viral marketing will bring a negative effect, and negative word-of-mouth will circulate on the Internet at lightning speed.

This science fiction movie with "dreams" as the carrier has also unveiled the mystery in the expectations of countless fans of Matthew and Christopher Nolan.
