"We want to create an award that is closest to the audience in the social era, and become a new bridge between Hollywood and fans. We believe that this award will fully encourage film practitioners - actors, production, investment, etc., and will also provide a platform for social network users and lovers of films and TV series to express their views. ”

On March 12, 2006, the four largest social networking sites in the market announced the joint creation of the "Social Age Public Choice Award" - "Golden Eagle Award". Trophies will be awarded to films and TV series in all categories, including drama, music and comedy, documentary, and animation, and major awards will be set up to recognize actors, behind-the-scenes and works recognized by social network users.

F2F CEO Mark Brown. Vaughn will serve as the inaugural chair of the Social Times Public Choice Awards organizing committee. The organizing committee has an office under it, with various permanent departments such as technology, publicity, production, and supervision. The operating expenses of the organizing committee will be borne by the four social networks on a pro-rata basis.

Mark spent nearly an hour explaining the myriad of the Golden Eagle Awards, which are based on the many existing awards and professional awards, as well as the opinions of social media technology experts, and will use a scoring model based on a new data system that has been reviewed by the technical team of the U.S. Internet Market Regulation Authority, and its scientific and impartial nature should not be questioned.

However, in the subsequent session of questions from the media.

When the Los Angeles Times got the first chance to ask a question, it asked "Daniel. What role did Sandler play in the creation and operation of the Golden Eagle Award? Because of the close relationship between the Golden Eagle and Daniel, how does he avoid being perceived as having a particular advantage? At this question, all the media present quickly fell silent.

This is their common problem, the most important one.

Everybody knows. The four founders of the Golden Eagle Award are all members of the social system of Plutos, and the current leader of Plutos is Daniel. Sandler. It couldn't help but confuse them - how did the Golden Eagle avoid the negative speculation that Daniel brings?

This is clearly a question that Mark is prepared for.

"First of all, I want to emphasize that when our data system is working, there are technical regulators from government departments involved, and it is not feasible to artificially tamper with the data. This will be the most important insistence of the 'Golden Eagle Award'. I think you all agree that if we want this award to last longer, then we need to ensure its impartiality and authority. We insist on that. The second thing that needs to be told to everyone is that Daniel. Mr. Sandler proposed the creation of the award, and as a person with significant influence and voice in the social media space and the Hollywood industry, Mr. Daniel was very optimistic about the combination of the two companies, so he came up with the idea of creating the Golden Eagle Award. What we need to say is that Mr. Daniel's role throughout the process is irreplaceable. Or to put it another way, there would be no Golden Eagle without him. Finally, I would like to inform you that Daniel . Mr. Sandler will not be involved in all awards at the Golden Eagle Awards. As the most well-known and influential film actor in the Internet era, this decision of the Golden Eagle Award will not disapprove of his achievements and influence, and he is still the most social and zeitgeist Hollywood actor in the opinion of the Golden Eagle Award. ”

Daniel will not be involved in the Golden Eagle Awards.

This is not unexpected. Such as Mark. Vaughn said, ever since Daniel played the fat boy in "School Blues." He started his legend on the Internet. Among the most influential movie character fan groups on the Internet today, the elf prince and Captain Jack are a big step ahead of the other characters. More intuitive data is that Daniel's MB and F2F accounts have more followers than those including legendary singer Michael. Jackson, Latin diva Shakira, rap superstar Eminem, pop idol Justin. Timberlake and other singers who dominate the charts, and football superstars such as Beckham, Messi, and Ronaldo are also far from Daniel.

Shakira, who has the world's second largest number of F2F followers, once answered a question from the media: "Do you think you can surpass Daniel. Is Sandler concerned? He said this in an incredulous tone. Oh, it's even more incredible than when I become president of Colombia next year. You have to know what Daniel means on F2F, it's like U.S. customs. If you want to enter the U.S., you must go through customs clearance. If you're going to get into the social world, then you have to follow Daniel. Sandler -- The first person I paid attention to was him. It's not a mandatory behavior, but it is done by everyone, or by the vast majority of users, and it represents the spirit of the social age, and no one is trying to outdo him, and no one is able to do it. ”

This absolute advantage provides the basis for Daniel to obtain the honor of "not participating".

Yes, it is an absolute honor not to participate in the Golden Eagle Awards.

It's only when you're going to win indisputably that you're in a position to say no-– if not, your statement will undoubtedly be a joke. Even with Daniel's achievements today, if he follows Roy. Stan's opinion that if he forgoes the Oscars, then he will most likely become a joke as well.

To be honest, the first Hollywood superstar who decided not to run for the Oscars, this title is definitely not weaker than Catherine. Hepburn's four-time Oscar-winning actress.

Moreover, this response is bound to completely quell Roy. The controversy instigated by Stan.

The Huffington Post reporter asked an even more pointed question -- which was eye-catching, because Arianna . . . Huffington's aggregator has just recently received a $5 million injection from Plutos Investments to hire more staff to keep the site up to date 24 hours a day and to run a system of aggregators that include individual blogs of politicians, news commentators, think tank experts and academics.

Now, a Huffington Post reporter is shooting at his new boss — just like the toughness of Arianna, the 55-year-old founder.

Mark. Vaughan is not directly involved in the overall investment and system building of Plusos.

The current senior management team led by Raymond is a group of senior talents with foresight and sufficient investment wisdom from Wall Street, managers of well-known technology companies, financial experts, policy researchers, etc. Among the investment goals of building Plutos' "Internet social ecosystem", it has successively targeted linkedln, MySpace, and Internet players that are still quite weak, such as Reddit, Huffington Post, YouTube, etc., which involve various fields such as online communities, politics, news, and video. In addition to these dominant investments. Buying stocks in companies such as Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, etc., is also a portfolio of Plutos.

Of course, as an increasingly mature investment company, nurturing the company and then selling its shares for a profit has become its largest source of capital. Some of Daniel's stock market speculations based on memory are gradually losing their significant share of income – and that's certainly a good thing. Plutos will ultimately rely on himself to survive.

Therefore, Mark did not have much additional emotion about the Huffington Post reporter's unkindness.

"By Daniel. Will Sandler, or a company owned by Plutos Investments, invest in the production of films and actors? I don't want to make a lie, DD Pictures really got ahead of the curve in the social age, and the huge success of "Greek Wedding" can be said to be a classic moment when social networking sites and Hollywood first combined. It's a milestone. So it's no surprise that their works, under the command of a skilled social mind, tend to get more attention on the site. They are legitimate propaganda tools - I emphasize that they have advantages, but they are legitimate. Moreover, as the concept of social networking penetrates all levels of Hollywood, this advantage of DD Pictures will be weakened, and the Golden Eagle Awards will develop towards fairness in a more general sense. But what we need to affirm is that. Just as the Academy can't give the green light to a film it co-produces, we don't give unfair help to DD Pictures' productions - in fact. As I have said before, the award ultimately depends on who gets more recognition from the social network users, not who has a better relationship with the organizing committee. ”

"The award is set at the beginning of February next year, that is, in the middle of the Golden Globes and the Oscars, does this mean that the Golden Eagle Awards want to compete with these two awards for influence?"

AOL Questions.

Mark smiled, and the problem began to fall into normal categories. No longer revolving around the legitimacy of the Golden Eagle Award, which makes him happy.

"To be precise, the timing was chosen primarily in consideration of the requirements of the award - the social network data in the past year is huge, because it takes a certain amount of time to process. If it is determined to be in January, time may run out. This is the most important point. Of course, we need to make sure that the awards are completed within the awards season, otherwise the organizing committee will be worried about how many stars will be able to participate. As for the competitive influence you mentioned, I have already said that the Golden Eagle Awards are positioned differently from the Golden Globes and the Oscars, so there is no competition between them -- in fact, the president of the Academy, Frank Brown. Mr. Pearson, as well as the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Theo Killing. Jingema is a member of the Golden Eagle Award committee. ”

Mark put a message in a big way.

This is the result of a rather difficult period of work, and even Theo is not without difficulties.

Fox Broadcasting is probably by far the most interested reporter asking questions.

Because among the many awards in direct competition with the Golden Eagle Awards, the Teen Choice Award is one of the best, and it is hosted by Fox Broadcasting.

"What I want to ask is that there are already a lot of awards in the selection category, such as the People's Choice Awards, the Teen Choice Awards and the MTV Movie Awards, and the Golden Eagle Awards believe that they will represent the public choice in the social age. But we actually know that these awards have Internet channels, and, significantly, most of the people who participate in these awards are users of social networks. What does the Golden Eagle consider unusual about itself? Is your claim really more than just a gimmick? ”

"Of course not, ma'am. We are significantly different from the existing awards in the judging category. We are not simply elected by one person, one vote. While there is no disparagement in any way, we need to recognize that the way the president of the United States is elected, I mean one person, one vote, is really too old to be used. The Golden Eagle Awards are generated using the latest data technology, and we have even registered patents and insurance for the system, and all those involved in the development and review are required to maintain confidentiality for the rest of their lives. We're not kidding, this system is really awesome and very cool. It's also definitely more than just labeling a celebrity's name, it's so complex that sometimes you hate someone and become part of their influence - in addition, there's a lot of third-party authoritative data, such as box office, DVD sales, and so on. ”

In addition to satirizing the President of the United States, Mark's answer is still acceptable, and whether Fox's reporter approves or disapproves is another question.

……

The inaugural Golden Eagle Awards ceremony is almost a year away - 2007 will be its first year.

The attention given by the media is within the normal range, and there is no big deal about it, and certainly Daniel and Mark are not delusional about it. Social media itself is a superrival to traditional media and other online media – who would be a rival for so-called "news fairness"?

However, the enthusiastic response from F2F and many other social networking sites was enough to satisfy the organizing committee.

The singers have quietly increased their interaction with F2F, and some songs have even chosen to debut on the F2F page - but this is a few months later, and people will not be too ugly after all. The frequency of interaction and updates among the actors has also increased. The slight increase in social investment in production companies is reflected in the Shanying company's survey report.

Many people who can see this result clearly will not be surprised.

Why are the Oscars so popular with studios? The most important reason for this is that it can get an average revenue bonus of 10 million to 30 million for the award-winning films. And the Golden Eagle Award has been recognized by many people in terms of market influence - in fact, in the eyes of studios, the Golden Eagle Award can be seen as a social network to promote a group of works and actors collectively - if the distributor wants to achieve such results in normal times, it will need to spend millions of publicity budgets.

This is where the confidence of the Golden Eagle Award lies.

……

Daniel, who returned to Vancouver, in addition to flying back to Berkeley regularly, continued to shoot until the completion of "Museum", and then transferred to the crew of "Unstoppable".

"Hey, Daniel, have a Michael?"

The staff members smiled and suggested to Daniel while packing up the props.

In order to adapt to the filming of "Unstoppable", Daniel now needs to practice his guitar every day, and it is not easy to become a master, but in the ears of ordinary people, it is also quite beautiful. (To be continued......)
