Chapter 365: Idol Full Contact

The "Social Age People's Choice Awards" jointly launched by major social networking sites are undoubtedly the most sensational news after this year's Oscars.

Maybe Meryl. Streep and Daniel. Wear. Lewis, a master of acting skills who live in seclusion, can not care about the Golden Eagle Award. Their commercial worth has reached the limit of what they can achieve, with 13 Academy Award nominations and two awards, and Meryl can't afford to raise her accolades with any of these awards – especially with investors.

But for the vast majority of Hollywood actors, including super A-level actors, this award is crucial.

The premise is that the Golden Eagle does have the predicted impact – in fact, it's not that hard, and there's no reason to be suspicious of the award promoted by Plutos, the company that dominates the social age.

The users of social networks are concentrated in a young, energetic group, and almost all of the actors' popularity, box office appeal, long-term commercial value, etc., are closely related to this group. Gaining influence within this group is a more intuitive way for them to add value.

Hollywood actors have been chasing the Oscars, in addition to glory and status, specific to the material, it must be salary, appearance fees, endorsement prices, and so on. But the promotion of these material conditions by the Oscar is actually indirect, it first commends the acting skills, and then promotes the value of the actors. So, the reality is that not everyone Oscar winner will be able to reap this indirect benefit. For example, Meryl mentioned above. Streep - An Oscar nomination or award can no longer help her increase her salary, but can only increase her status in film history, which is an important spiritual achievement and very important.

However, the Golden Eagle Award will be completely market-oriented.

You got the Golden Eagle Award, sort of. That means you've been recognized by the market, you've been recognized by the mainstream consumer base - then you should get a higher price.

This is what drives everyone crazy.

"It's really exciting news that we really need to embrace a new era, and it's necessary and exciting for anyone." Justin. Timberlake.

"We do feel that times are changing, and the birth of the Golden Eagle Award is in line with this law, and we hope to have the opportunity to participate in it." Brad. Pete and Angelina. Julie.

"Hollywood should evolve. Constantly incorporating with new technologies is an important feature of Hollywood's viability. MGM Pictures CEO Lang. Meyer.

"Great, isn't it? F2F is full of exhilarating fans. "BeyoncΓ©.

"Competition? Of course it is, but the Golden Globes are not afraid of competition. And compared with competition, we believe that the complementarity is stronger, the Golden Eagle Award is a popular award in the selection category, and the Golden Globe Award is more professional and diverse. We'll work well together. "Hollywood Foreign Press Association President Theo. Kingmar.

"I'm looking forward to what it might bring." The president of the Academy, Flac. Pearson.

The voices of support from people from all walks of life in Hollywood have pushed this award in the pipeline to a high level. The traditional media, which had a lackluster response, had to start embracing it. After all, this is a series of news that can boost sales, and once someone starts, other media will have to keep up, and no one will tolerate falling behind.

……

"That black guy is really good."

Lin Xilei and her niece Chu Qingqing have been resting in Vancouver for a while, and her next drama in Hong Kong is about to join the group, but she is very nostalgic for the leisure time when she can watch TV at home.

They were watching a selection of auditions for CBS's Cabaret Youth Cup National Collegiate Dance Competition.

CBS cut the highlights of the preliminary rounds from the four regions into 30-minute episodes. In order to attract spectators and raise the attention of this event. Although MGM Television Production and F2F have cooperated in all aspects. But it's not so easy for a brand new dance event to gain universal influence. The popularity of the event had been tepid until CBS produced the special, but as CBS poured resources into it, it became increasingly certain that it was an event that would reach the three major cable networks β€” enough to make a name for itself. Or at least in the surrounding social circles.

F2F has launched the popularity ranking on the Youth Cup page, inviting those who are highly mentioned auditions to verify their accounts - this boosts everyone's sense of honor, and generally speaking, getting F2F certification means that you are out of the ordinary category and become a public figure - which is quite attractive.

Canada has historically been a colony of the American entertainment industry.

It's not surprising that Lin Xilei and others will pay attention to CBS's show.

The handsome black guy Chu Qingqing just said is called Eric. Morrison. is a very popular contestant in the audition, good at mechanical dance, and full of muscles, handsome appearance, it is not surprising that he is popular.

Glancing at the TV, Lin Xilei did not discriminate against skin color, but it was difficult to appreciate Eric's handsomeness, but Chu Qingqing, who had just come to the United States, was a little more receptive.

"You know what? This is a show produced by MGM, Daniel. Sandler is the owner of MGM. Chu Qingqing suddenly said with a peculiar expression.

Lin Xilei was a little surprised, this show was not popular at all, and of course she didn't pay attention to who made it.

"Really? MGM started doing talent shows? ”

"Well, yes." Chu Qingqing lay down on the sofa, "Daniel is still filming in Vancouver, I really want to see him again." ”

"How do you know he's still in Vancouver?"

"That's what I said on the Internet." Chu Qingqing stood up suddenly, "Those people are too powerful, they don't know the whereabouts of celebrities, planes, flights, time points, locations, and street photography are even more powerful than the paparazzi in Hong Kong." ”

Lin Xilei disagreed, "Do you know the paparazzi in Hong Kong? Even I don't know. ”

"Tsk."

Chu Qingqing changed the channel, and the CBS program ended.

"Tomorrow's concert, Zhiqiu will come with us, okay?"

"Ye Zhiqiu?" Lin Xilei looked at Chu Qingqing suspiciously, "Are youβ€”"

"No, what do you think. Even if he got the ticket, he just said that he would go together. ”

"Whatever you want, but you're going back to the United States to study."

Chu Qingqing sighed, her aunt went back to make movies, and she was going back to Los Angeles to study, and she studied language in the first half of the school year. Wait until you pass the exam to officially enter the university, so you don't have much time to play in Vancouver, Ye Zhiqiu is a woman she met during her time in Vancouver, they are all Chinese, although the other party is from the mainland, but it is easy to get together to play, the meaning is a little bit, but there is no fault, after all, can you maintain a relationship in the situation of separating the two places. It is not necessarily, especially since Ye Zhiqiu is about to graduate and is said to be going back to the mainland.

As for the concert they are talking about, it is a performance by the well-known American band Linkin Park. Lin Xilei's friend in Canada gave her two tickets, and she didn't know where Ye Zhiqiu got the tickets.

"Do you think we're going to run into Daniel again?"

"How is it possible, he has no friendship with Lincoln, how can he go to the show."

"Not necessarily, maybe he'll go to a concert. It's like watching ice hockey. ”

"A venue of 20,000 people, even if he goes. You can't touch it either. ”

"You can call, didn't you give us a call last time?" Chu Qingqing jumped up from the sofa and looked at Lin Xilei with sparkling eyes. The question of whether to call or not had been bothering her for a long time, and according to reasoning, Daniel gave her the number, and of course she was allowed to call. But Daniel is a top star after all. It's a big guy, and it's awkward to call directly.

I was awkward for a long time, and I thought about it, if my aunt wasn't there. She even less courage. Chu Qingqing decided to make this call today.

"Qingqing, I heard that the private life of a male star in Hollywood is very inappropriate, how could he, a big star, suddenly call you."

"Oh, auntie, Daniel is not like this, he is a good person. And-" Chu Qingqing thought for a moment, "what if...... It's also good. ”

"The devil has gotten you."

"Then I'll fight." Chu Qingqing picked up the phone, "I really called." ”

"Fight, fight, if you don't fight, you won't die."

"Hey, hey."

Chu Qingqing dialed out according to the business card given by Daniel, rang a few times, and when the phone was answered, she felt that her heart was also lifted.

"Ahem, Harrow?"

"Hello? This is Daniel. Sandler's personal assistant, are you? ”

A male voice came from the other end of the phone, Chu Qingqing couldn't remember Miller's voice anymore. But it didn't prevent her mood from going down all of a sudden, it turned out to be just an assistant's phone call.

"Assistant!"

Chu Qingqing made a mouth shape and said to Lin Xilei. Lin Xilei thought it was expected, a star of Daniel's level, how could fans who wanted to talk to him go around the equator, how could they give them a private call.

"Hang up."

Shaking his head, Chu Qingqing thought about the wording, "Hello, my name is Chu Qingqing, last time we were at the ice hockey rink with Danielβ€”"

"Oh, I know, Chinese lady, please wait a minute, I'll give Daniel the phone."

Chu Qingqing heard a series of fast-moving voices on the phone, to the effect that there were two Chinese girls on the ice hockey rink, and she said that her name was Chu Qingqing Balabala.

Lin Xilei looked at Chu Qingqing's expression and suddenly mentioned it, and probably understood, she was still very surprised that Daniel really planned to answer her phone, so she simply sat on the side and watched them.

"Hello, Chu Qingqing?"

"Hello, Dan-Daniel." Chu Qingqing swallowed her saliva and looked at Lin Xilei on the side happily, "Uh, that's the case, isn't there a concert at Linkin Park tomorrow?" You're not going to be ready to go ahead and you're going to learn a lot of music, so I'd like to ask if you're going to watch it. ”

"Haha, do you need a ticket? I don't know them well, but I can help you ask. ”

"No, we have tickets, just to see if you want to go and see it together."

"So?" Daniel's voice weakened a little, and he said a few words to the side before turning around, "Okay, how many of you are?" ”

"2, oh no, 3 people."

"Okay, I'm still working, I'll contact you tomorrow afternoon."

"Okay, then, goodbye."

Putting down the phone, Chu Qingqing took a deep breath, "He said yes, God, Daniel and I are going to the concert together tomorrow." ”

"Crazy you want it."

……

"You can relax tomorrow, you can see if you can, well, you can follow tomorrow and get 5 tickets with a better position."

Daniel put down the phone and said to Miller. The phone had always been with Miller, second only to his own mobile phone number in the most intimate way - Miller's expression was intriguing when he first gave it, and now he has more to say.

"Danny, you don't really have a crush on that Chinese chick, do you?"

"Chu Qingqing?"

"I remember it so clearly." Miller whistled.

Daniel laughed, "No, the other one is a Chinese actor." ”

Miller's eyes widened, "Wow, Daniel, you're so boring. ”

"Hurry up and do it."

Shrugging his shoulders, Miller went out to get a ticket. Whether it is China or the United States, there are such relationship votes, and the so-called guest seats will always leave some seats for those who are powerful. Billionaires can choose to have fun with their people, but only if they don't have privileges, they just want to.

Daniel and Lincoln really don't have any friendship, but as Warner Bros.'s most well-known band, they actually started out on the Internet, and their previous attempts to hold 40 underground concerts ended in failure. Since the release of "One-Step-Closer" on the Internet, the Yahoo community has become the first stop on their road to fame, and later MB, F2F, and even YouTube at the beginning of the year, have cooperated with them, and they are considered to be one of the musicians who make the most use of the Internet. Naturally, through many connections, there is no problem with those few tickets from them, not to mention, Daniel is not without compensation.

……

Lincoln Park opens at a sports hall within the University of British Columbia, with admission at half past five.

Daniel didn't actually rest all day, just a little earlier, because the crew of "Night at the Museum" itself was nearby, and it only took 20 minutes to walk.

"Qingqing, what kind of friend is it? Such a big name? Ye Zhiqiu looked at his watch, it was almost half past five, and they had been waiting for 10 minutes.

"I'll scare you to death later." Chu Qingqing bared her teeth, and suddenly arched Lin Xilei, "Auntie, look at you, isn't that?" ”

Lin Xilei didn't expect Daniel to actually come over, wearing a pullover sweatshirt and an oversized mask - but this is not surprising, the concert is smoky, and many people like to wear hats and masks. However, Daniel's bodyguard didn't do any disguise, so Lin Xilei recognized it at a glance.

Chu Qingqing didn't need her to answer, her hand was about to break.

"Here, here."

"I've kept you waiting, let's go inside." (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for the Tianya monthly pass, I am simply moved. Zhiqiu's dragon trick is out.
