"Many people don't admit the existence of this law, but the fact is that, generally speaking, stars generally have a slippery slope in their careers after winning the Oscar, which is caused by two aspects, first, the mentality is unbalanced after winning the award, and it is difficult to find a pure performance state. If you like it, go to www.LWXS520. "That's exactly what we need to avoid, and the second is a mindset that is hard to reverse—public exhaustion." ”

He pulled out a document and pushed it to Jenny, "I asked people to count the headlines of the web from last night to the present, and in more than 300 news, the word legend has been mentioned 267 times, and it is no exaggeration to say that although it is inevitable that you will also be questioned, for most of the American people, you are already a living legend." But that's not a good thing for you: no legend is alive in front of the public, if you know what I mean. Two Oscars made you a legend, and most of the American people recognized that you made a legend, and this leads to the next step - for most people, two Oscars will be the insurmountable peak of your life, in other words, you have crossed your highest point, Jefferson, at least for most people. It's hard for people to imagine what you're going to achieve more sensational than this, and in their mental anticipation, the rest of your life will be the same as Michael. Jackson, like him, lives in the background of memories and becomes an eternal label. ”

Truth be told, when Cesare spat out the word, Jenny felt like everything was back on track. Since last night, everything has been too good to be true: the double awards, the stars, the better acceptance than expected, the criticism on the part of the critics - now Cesare has come out and told her, 'The game is not over, on the contrary, the harder times have just begun, you still have to crawl forward' - and it would not be true that she enjoys the feeling of an uncertain future, but it is true that she has a sense of 'this is life, this is Hollywood', and it is time to come back to reality.

"I think I understand what you mean," she mused, "I mean, when we mentioned Michael. When Jackson was in mind, we thought of "Dangerous" and "Billyjean", of course, he was the unfading king, but his image has been forever left in the 80s and 90s, and it's hard to associate the 20th century with him. Of course, he has basically retired from the music scene, but Madonna has not, she is also a living legend, but when you think of her, you still think of "likeavirgin", "materialgirl", you just can't think that she is actually still active in the music scene, and she is constantly releasing new works and touring around. ”

Of course, this is not to say that Madonna is now unpopular and completely outdated. But she has indeed passed her peak, but her downhill road is still higher than the peak of many singers. It's a great achievement to be on the front line for so many years - but this is Jenny judging others, of course she can be painless, as for herself, she definitely doesn't want the pinnacle of her life to be last night, even if she doesn't know how to achieve something more impressive than last night, but an unattainable dream is better than admitting that you have passed the peak and that there is no higher hope for the rest of your life.

"Not bad." Cesare nodded. "For most people, the newcomer actor is the freshest, people always can't get enough of him, and during his rapid rise, people are just as excited as he is, wanting to see what height he can reach. It's like Chris, and a lot of his fans have supported him since "Thriller Lover", watching him go from being a newcomer to the A-List, starting to sprint for the Oscars, and then finally winning the award after more than a decade in showbiz — and they're happy for him, but they don't feel distanced because of it. One Oscar is not enough for Chris, they are thinking about the next Oscar, waiting for Chris's next chance to show himself. But for your fans, you've only been on the scene for five years -- for most people, four years, and you've won an Oscar -- two, you've been so good, Jefferson, it's hard for people to stay close to you in their hearts, they don't have the feeling of 'watching you grow step by step,' they just have the excitement of 'seeing a miracle happen.'" ”

"Last night a miracle happened, very good, you became a legend, and then they no longer expect anything from you, they have fully affirmed you - after such a big thrill, it is not so easy to arouse the hunger and enthusiasm of the market for you again. Your status will always be there and you will enter Michael. Jackson's temple of the times, because your achievements at the box office and awards are rare among actresses. Streep only has two Oscars so far, and her average box office is nowhere near as high as yours. "You're like Vice President, Jefferson, with a high position, but your career has been completely deadlocked." People are still interested in you, but they are less interested in your career, they care about your background, why you won the double award so smoothly, why there are so many big names visiting you, do you have any hidden connections, who are you dating, who are you married - you will always be in the headlines, but at the same time-"

Jeanne found him to have a point, and she went on to say Cesare, "--But not many people are going to look forward to my new movie." ”

She took a large sip of water. "Gosh, you really have a point, I can almost come up with a picture like that. First you win an award, it's like the whole world starts to revolve around you, you get the best script in all of Hollywood, and there's going to be money in any project you fancy up, and then Waterloo, Waterloo, Waterloo, and then those people start to disappear, and you're still in the headlines, and maybe you can shoot magazine covers, but all you can do is those low-budget literary films—"

Well, she's actually talking about Nicole in the future. Kidman, in her, the curse of the Oscar-winning actress is vividly embodied, and that kind of decay is even difficult to explain with a picky eye, Nicole has acted in several very good quality films, such as with the contemporary acting god Daniel. Wear. Lewis collaborated on "Nine", but even Daniel couldn't save him, this luxurious lineup, high-quality blockbuster ended up being miserable at the box office, word of mouth, and awards. It's not so much that Nicole is particularly unlucky, but that Cesare's theory is very reasonable, Nicole is still popular, but for the audience, after Nicole won the Oscar, they have lost their expectations of her - 'Nicole's peak has passed', 'She should live without fireworks in some earthly wonderland now'.

Think again about Catherine, who won Best Supporting Actress. Zeta-Jones, it seems, is the same, because the Oscars are the pinnacle of these once box office bigwigs, making them legends at both the box office and the awards, and this Oscar aftermath seems to be even more obvious - and they are not even a third of Jenny's in terms of legend.

Jeanne was genuinely uneasy now, and she looked at Cesare almost pleadingly. "Don't tell me you just ask questions and have no solutions - tell me you're not that kind of person."

"I'm not that kind of person." Cesare said, pausing and glancing inquiringly at Jeanne, "and I am glad to find that, unlike what I feared, you have not been carried away by last night's success, or have thus dampened your ambition to keep going—which is a good thing, because the solution I propose requires a high level of personal ability." ”

"Are you selling off?" Jenny asked impatiently, "Say, what's your solution?" ”

"Questioning tactics." Cesare replied simply. "People think that you have 'made a lot of merit', then we will arouse their interest, not now, of course, but before the release of your next art film, which makes people question that your actress is the result of public relations, and doubt the level of your performance in the new film. Rekindle the curiosity and expectation of the crowd - of course, it's a double-edged sword, because you're a double actress now, Jefferson, the average actor's 100 points can only be a passing grade for you, you need to contribute a performance that surpasses yourself, so that the audience has new expectations for you, 'I want to see what she can do', you know what I mean? ”

"I understand." Jenny closed her eyes and replied with some difficulty, "I'm the lucky bastard, people think I'm only A, but I got A++++, and my next art film wants to make people feel that my real strength is even above A++++, I'm going to keep them up with the urge to follow me and see where I can go from A++++ to breaking their expectations and rekindling the excitement of witnessing miracles, gotit." ”

"Very good." Cesare crossed his hands and looked at her measuredly, "And do you think you can do it?" ”

Break through "The Fifth Sally"? Challenging a harder character? Headache after entering frequent empathy again, or worse, you can't find an empathy partner, and you can only figure out the anxiety, panic and inextricability of the character on your own?

"Hey." Jenny suppressed all her fears, she smiled and shook her head, "That's my goal, Cesare, isn't this what a man who dreams of reaching the top and is more awesome than Oprah should do?" Are you sure you still need to ask? ”

Cesare's lips twitched, but in the end, he simply said, "OK." I think that means that we have to be very careful about choosing your next art film. ”

He pursed his lips, "In case you hadn't thought about it, this is when your 'genius intuition' comes into play—"

"What about commercial films." Jenny skipped his question directly, because she really didn't know what other legendary literary films would be suitable for her to play and definitely win the award, she remembered a "Black Swan", but that was years later. "What is our thinking for commercial films?"

"We can wait until the summer when Pirates comes out to talk about it." Cesare looked down at the papers. "The boom in special effects films has been a matter of the last decade, and in the last decade it is difficult to find characters in a similar situation to you, and most of them are rarely actively involved in commercial films. So I can't give you an answer right now, when the box office of "Pirates" comes out, we will see the impact of the two Oscar-winning actresses on the box office of commercial films. But "Pirates" doesn't accurately show your box office appeal, after all, it's a sequel, and the main character isn't you. ”

"So I guess we're going to have to be very careful about choosing the next commercial film as well." Jenny said, "Okay, no problem. Your purpose of pouring cold water on me has been achieved, and I am now sober, frightened, and ready to burn myself for the cause at any time - can you stop scaring me and move on to the next issue? ”

A barely visible smile quickly jumped up the corner of Cesare's lips and quickly disappeared, and he calmly flipped through a page of documents and asked in a 'I don't know what you're talking about', "We still want to discuss the change of external public relations ideas and big dreams' business ideas for a period of time, which one do you want to discuss first?" ”

"The first one, of course." Jenny couldn't wait to say, "Tell me what the industry is thinking about right now - why did Cameron and Spielberg come here last night, and what did they talk to you about?" ”

"They weren't actually coming for me, they were coming to Frank — you know, the guys from the Academy's rotating committee," Cesare replied, "but Frank wasn't there, and the committee had an emergency meeting last night. Anyway, I'm guessing they just thought there's something big going on here, like a miscounting of Oscars, or another scandal of someone buying an award - they don't want to miss the excitement, and of course, many of them are really curious about you. ”

"They're not going to take away my Olympic prize, are they? Could this happen? Jenny was a little uneasy.

"Your award is in accordance with the procedure, there is no cheating, and I don't see any reason for them to take it." Cesare replied. - He sat up straight and put his hand on the table, "Actually, that's exactly what I want to talk to you about: Jefferson, I don't know if you're aware of it, but at this point in time, we're actually in a pretty good position because of the information asymmetry. ”

"yes—yes, I'd love to talk to you about it." Jenny said quickly, "I've found that most people probably have their own imagination about this whole thing - but I'm not sure how long it will last." You know, the truth always spreads, and sooner or later people will know that the supporting actress award has nothing to do with us. ”

"Do you think so?" Cesare asked, the smile slowly spreading from his eyes, eventually turning into a young, mischievous one, "Then all I can say is that maybe you don't know that much about Hollywood - on the contrary, I don't think people will ever believe that a double award has nothing to do with us - I think it's an opportunity for a big dream, Jane, I think it's even better than a double award, I think you're a very, very lucky girl, and I'm a very, very lucky agent: in my expectation, It will take at least five years or more to get the big dream on track, but now, after a series of wonderful developments? I think it's time for big dreams to break through the bottleneck and get into the fast lane – that's the key. ”

He seemed to realize his overexcitement, and in the blink of an eye, his smile faded into a shadow again, and Cesare leaned forward and strengthened his tone seriously, "If you want to be cooler than Oprah, Jane, then you must not miss this opportunity, compared to the benefits we can draw from the current situation, a double award is only a gimmick." I know you want to go from pawn to player, we all want to, and I think this is going to be the beginning of everything - yes, it's just getting started......"

The author has something to say: Note: Nicole really declined after winning the award, and now she can really only act in independently produced small films, and it is visually estimated that it will continue to decline......

Updated,

I found that many readers are not misunderstood, I didn't make it clear, I mean, the article is only 2006 now, and I expect to write about 2015 or 16 in the article. It's not that I'm going to write about 2016 in reality...... Ha ha...... That's too long, right......
