“with the 13th pibsp; the een y-six nba draft，the charlotte hors selebsp; kobe bryant fro lower rion high school pennsylvania……”

When Roland, who wore a beard and a toad mirror on his face and a peaked cap, looked at the silver-haired old Jewish man shaking hands and laughing with a black man in a black suit and a blue flower tie around his neck, his eyes glistened to tears as he sat in the audience.

As the other party went through the process step by step, he went backstage to be interviewed, just to witness Roland, who had just been there for a moment, also got up, put the hat on his head on the seat, and then left the draft meeting with ease.

Holding Kate's hand and strolling through the streets of East Rutherford, for Roland, at the beginning of the crossing, the biggest goal set for himself in '96 has been achieved, or rather, the wild words that he put down when he watched the Lakers game with Mike Mohami have been half completed, and the remaining half is naturally to buy a No. 8 jersey and let the other party sign for himself.

Of course, Kate doesn't really understand what Roland's current situation is.

She thought that Roland was just joking before, what a young guy, what a thirteenth pick, these were just the words he wanted to come to the draft, but when she accompanied Roland to walk eight miles, got into the venue, and sat down to watch the ceremony, she realized that what Roland said was true, because among the twelve people before, only the six-foot champion made him treat him differently.

"You know him?" Looking at the face that couldn't hide the smile, Kate thought that Roland was happy for the other party.

So he said, "Charlotte is a nice place, and the air is much better than Los Angeles." ”

what？

Roland, who was immersed in the memory of his previous life, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head and said, "No, no, no......"

"I don't know him."

"And he's not going to be in Charlotte, he's going to Los Angeles."

Wait a minute......

Such words made Kate, who wanted to continue talking, stunned.

You don't know him, so why did you make a special trip?

You don't know him, so how do you know he's going to Los Angeles?

Glancing at it, catching the sparkle in the corner of Roland's eyes, she slowly put a question mark in her heart.

She felt that there was something wrong with Roland.

If Roland knew what Kate was thinking, he would also generously admit that he had a problem.

has been focusing on Kehei for more than ten years, and he has actually hacked out his feelings.

It's a real shame!

If movies were Roland's passion in his last life, games were his obsession after work.

Basketball, then, is his relaxation after work.

He can't remember exactly what year he came into contact with basketball, but he knows that he started to hack Kobe Bryant after Da Yao entered the American Professional Basketball League, and the reason is very simple, he likes Duncan and hates the Lakers, because the Lakers were the strongest at that time.

In the era of the Internet being barren, how many netizens who have the identity of fans understand data and efficiency?

When others were touting Kobe, Roland, who had a computer, swam in the ocean of the Internet, playing "Fantasy Journey to the West", where he understood the meaning of various data, and whenever he found that Kobe Bryant was extremely inefficient and was simply a cancer, he would go to school and slap those Komi in the face as if he had picked up a treasure.

Not only that, in the era when YouTube was not walled, he also did it himself, had enough food and clothing, learned the production of gifs, and looked for various materials such as 'the boss did his best', it is no exaggeration to say that when he can't get along in the film and television industry in the future, his so-called grandma's career is based on the self-study of the black Kobe when he was black, and the talent tree pointed out.

The dog gnawed the same English, all of which were hard chiseled out in the era when there was no machine translation, in order to pick up the black Kobe Bryant of the news on the Internet.

He will be excited for the Spurs to beat the Lakers to reach the Western Conference Finals, he will be sad for Kobe Bryant to take away the spark, he will cheer for the Spurs to beat the little emperor, and he will be disappointed for the Lakers to win two consecutive championships in the yellow-green battle.

But when Roland watched the broadcast of the Lakers playing the Warriors in his last life, and saw Kobe Bryant on the screen clutching his ankle and falling to the ground in pain, going off the court to check and then playing free throws, he suddenly felt empty in his mind.

And after he brushed the news of Kobe's Achilles tendon rupture, he suddenly found that for so many years, he kept saying that he liked Duncan, but in the end, it was Kobe Bryant's game that he watched the most.

As soon as his thoughts were pulled, Duncan's classic picture was blurred, but Kobe Bryant hit Harden from a negative angle, rode a horse and shot an arrow to beat the Heat, and double-killed the Trail Blazers...... These were sprayed by him as extremely inefficient playing styles back then, and I still remember them vividly.

When he retired for 60 minutes, he cried when he saw him.

Roland thought that Duncan was his youth, but in the end, he realized that handsomeness is a lifelong thing.

The youth of 60e is a pink Kobe, Roland's youth is a black Kobe, aba out, and youth is eternal.

Thinking of this, Roland suddenly laughed.

Kate, who was pressing the road with him, glanced at him again with strange eyes, and she felt that Roland was not in the right state.

"Do you have something on your mind?" Kate, with her fingers interlocked, stopped.

She felt that Roland seemed to have something important to hide from herself, "If before, you gave me the feeling of calmness, maturity, like the sun at noon, and the mental age was enough to crush a bunch of young people, but today, how do you feel like an old man to me?" ”

"Old man? How can it be? Roland, who also stopped, took off his sunglasses, although the corners of his eyes were red, but his face was full of happiness, "I just saw my lost youth, and I think I'm full of vitality now!" ”

"Lost youth?"

When Kate heard Roland's words, her whole body was full of question marks like Yang Shaoxia of 'He is strong, he is strong, Lao Tzu Nick Yang', she really wants to reply with a sentence of 'You are three years younger than me, where can you pass away your youth?' ’。

But when she found out that Roland's eyes were clearer than all the times before—

The surprise in my heart was also suppressed, and in its place, my eyes were full of curiosity.

"Okay, then I have the pleasure of listening, the story of your youth?"

As soon as he heard this, Roland refused without thinking about it, "Uh...... My story is boring, and you won't be interested. ”

The more Roland said this, the more Kate's eyes lit up, and she straightened her nose, very dissatisfied with Roland's perfunctory, but she didn't force it, but instead asked "I actually didn't know, you like basketball......"

"And I don't seem to have heard of you playing basketball before?"

"Of course, if you think someone is embarrassed to talk about the mess when you were a child, that's okay......"

"I can start by talking about my last twenty years......"

Huh!

This can be there!

As a person who will die if he doesn't take advantage, after hearing Kate's strange request, Roland immediately nodded his head like a piledriver - youth, you can remember when you want, the girl's troubles, then if you miss this village, there will be no such shop!

That greedy and cheap behavior also made Kate speechless, but she originally wanted to dig up Roland's story, so she didn't care too much about Roland's attitude, and when she pulled him forward, the memories of the tide also emerged.

"I grew up in Reading, where the biggest music festival in the UK took place every August, and even the Rolling Stones performed there, and David Bowie was a regular there......"

"David Bowie? Is that the one who sang "Change"? As soon as Kate spoke, Roland interrupted her.

"Yes, you know him?" Kate unexpectedly replied, "But when we get along, you don't listen to his songs much!" ”

"Of course I know him, when I auditioned for "Home Alone", I still played and sang "Change" to impress John Hughes! He also complimented me on how well I played! "It's no secret, Roland doesn't have to hide it at all.

"But I remember when you played and sang the Red Bones song at the Golden Globes, it was a disaster......

Kate didn't save face for Roland at all.

"Don't talk nonsense, I was obviously a sensation at the time!" Roland denied it again and again.

"Really? Then tell me, why did you give up the guitar later? Kate didn't believe it.

"I just don't like guitars anymore!" Roland's dead duck has a hard beak.

"Then you don't play basketball because you don't like basketball?" Kate shifted the conversation to her own interests.

"Of course not!" Roland is at a loss for words.

"Because you're too busy filming?" Once again, Kate gave Roland a reason.

"I'm recognized as the most idle A+list in the world, how can I be busy!"

Roland was embarrassed to use this reason, "In the nineties, I was still playing. ”

"That was six years ago...... When you first started out? Kate asked a third question in a nostalgic tone.

Hearing her say this, Roland also misses it a little, this blink of an eye, it's been more than six years!

"yes...... It's been six years...... I entered the industry...... It's been six years......"

"And the opponent last time should be a spiritual guy now......"

In fact, whether a person is willing to share the past with another person depends entirely on whether there is inner resistance.

If Ronald Perelman's private dinner was before, Roland and Kate would never talk about these things, but now, they won't talk about things like rebirth, and other harmless content, the two exchanged a lot of things.

Of course, no matter how Kate asked, Roland didn't explain why he went to the draft to see Kobe, but even so, when the question was fruitless, Kate just asked him to sleep on the couch.

Belch...... Well, in the wee hours of the morning, she dragged Roland, who had slept uncomfortably, back again.

In the 20 days of Roland's 'evaporation from the world', the North American box office trend of "Spider-Man" was also very strange, exceeding 100 million in 100 hours, but in the next 15 days, the whole movie only won 147 million box office.

If you change to other movies, the box office of 18.6 million yuan a week is already a big hit, but for a record-breaking movie like "Spider-Man", this kind of achievement is obviously a lack of stamina.

However, even if there is a real phenomenon of 'lack of stamina', no media will underestimate its achievements, in addition to the fact that the summer vacation has just begun, the amazing purchasing power of Roland fans is also the reason why the media is reluctant to stimulate the market.

That's right, who makes the topic of growth too much in line with children's tastes?

In the past 20 days, in addition to the steady increase in the total box office, "Spider-Man", a video game released on PS, has also sold nearly 350,000 copies, a speed similar to Spielberg's sweep of the entire arcade market more than a decade ago.

Not only that, but the pullover sweatshirt printed with the half-head portrait of Spider-Man and Roland has also gone 100 million.

Coupled with other miscellaneous peripherals, in 20 days, the audience and fans spent more than 400 million on Roland!

When insiders got this kind of estimation report, everyone was silent.

Because Roland, who grew up with all the children of America, has a terrifying ability to absorb gold!

All insiders know that entertainment is originally a field where children win the world, but over the years, the only one who can really tie children to the chariot is Walt Disney and his fairytale kingdom!

And with the passing of Walt Disney, the one who can control children's tastes the most is Steven Spielberg.

But that old man is just a moviemaker, but Roland sells himself as a commodity!

If before, people still thought that the explosion of "Jurassic Park" was inseparable from the development of CGI, and Roland was just a cheap little ghost, then now - no one questions this question anymore!

For the uninitiated, audience popularity is an inexplicable thing, but for industry insiders, audience popularity is actually the accumulation of character design again and again, the character you create is pleasing in itself, then the audience will like you, a pleasing character will make you popular, two pleasing characters will make you completely popular, and if there are three, four, five, or six pleasing characters in a row, then ...... Your character is who you are in the eyes of the audience.

If in this case, add America's national IP, and then let the screenwriter and director write the movie script according to the reality of you in the eyes of the audience, then you on and off the screen will already coincide in the eyes of the audience.

As for aesthetic fatigue?

Oh, and the breakthrough CGI technology is the best cure for aesthetic fatigue.

Of course, even if it is analyzed why Roland is successful, his success cannot be replicated.

Because if you want to reach Roland's state, you must first shoot "Home Alone" and "Terminator 2" with a box office of 500 million, and then make a "Home Alone 2" with a box office of 400 million and "Jurassic Park" with a box office of 1 billion......

The audience is a thing that is piled up by the box office.

But apart from Roland, no one came out.

Because of the resources and connections, they are now in the hands of Roland.

Because of this, the guys in Hollywood don't want to offend him at all now, and they don't even have the intention of spraying Roland movies, because as long as Roland himself doesn't die, the audience's good impression of him can backfire on all the people who spray him.

What the? Unbelief?

When "Home Alone 2" was released, Roland was far from reaching the current popularity, but what about then?

His fans have already slapped all the critics hard.

Of course, in addition to the fact that the fan base is too strong, the itinerary of the past 20 days is also the reason why they are silent.

Before, Roland was only backed by Ronald Perelman and Carl Icahn, two jackals, and those media groups didn't bother to touch him, but now - when the intelligence agents told them again and again, Roland went to Michael Bloomberg's company today, asked David Shaw and his girlfriend to hang out on the street tomorrow, went in and out of Michael Milken's house the day after tomorrow, and went in and out of the hotel with Jordan Belfort the day after tomorrow......

No...... If you make it clear, then let's all be friends......

Although everyone believes that there is only profit in this world, but-

Roland is now at peace with them and doesn't provoke them, so why should they offend people?

In this way, regardless of the box office trend of "Spider-Man", those media are just a strong praise and raise expectations......

If you say two bright words, you won't lose a piece of meat, and if the scolding is ugly, those Wall Street bigwigs may think about it!

And in this case, with the return of Roland, Sony actually didn't know how to organize a celebration party.

Because there are too many people who have helped recently, the guest invitation list for the celebration banquet is not easy to draw up.

And when Kate, who had been with Roland all day, learned about it, she suggested that Roland do it herself.

"You didn't like all kinds of social parties before, but you have to do it now."

"Although we have come full circle in New York, your roots are still in Hollywood."

"Your teachers, Steven, James, they don't like these things either, but they still participate selectively."

"Movies are never a one-person thing, and you can get on good terms with all parties when they don't want to attack you."

"My suggestion is to invite everyone you have helped and come into contact with since you entered the industry to celebrate the record."

"Whether they want to come or not is their choice, whether you invite or not, it is your attitude."

"No matter how strong you are, you can't be arrogant, unless you're just an actor, your job is just to act well."

As a bronze-level social player, Roland will, that is, to climb the relationship and hug the thighs, so letting Kate be in charge of organizing the celebration banquet has become his most accustomed choice.

When those guys received invitations one after another and came to the banquet, the guests on the scene had a fight with Oscar.

Although there are many people, the order is not chaotic, and with Kate's help, Roland is also like a butterfly, swimming in all directions.

looked at the smiling face, socializing in all directions, and the little couple who laughed heartily and hugged and said hello......

Spielberg, who was hiding on the sidelines, found Cameron.

Spielberg asked "James?" ”

Cameron breathed and looked a little nervous, "Steven? ”

Spielberg clasped his hands around and whispered, "Didn't you notice that Roland seems to have changed?" ”

Cameron looked hesitant, "Ugh...... When he came back from Greece, I noticed that he seemed to be in love......"

Spielberg raised a frown, "Hiss...... Are you blind to me? Do you think this is the rhythm of falling in love right now? ”

Cameron coughed and pursed his lips, "This...... Probably, probably, probably, should, probably so......"

And just as the two of them were muttering quietly, Hanks, who was holding a wine glass, also joined the group chat.

"That...... According to the techniques I taught Roland, he should now be the purest experiential. ”

"This is already a characterization that is infinitely close to acting theory."

"After the filming of "Titanic" is finished, all the romance films will be difficult for him, or he may not make any more romance films, because no matter how he shoots, he will not be able to get back to his current state, unless he ......"

“…… He's in love with another girl and can get into this rhythm of life......"

"But ...... "Titanic" really has that much magic? What kind of film do you want to make? ”

Hanks's point-to-the-point words directly pierced the truck driver's disguise.

And when Spielberg cast a questioning glance at this guy, the scoundrel directly spread his hands and said, "No one can say anything about feelings, I just gave Roland and Kate half a year, and I didn't know what the result would be." ”

"But, I have to admit, I love the result, Roland and Kate are both dedicated actors......"

Of course, even the truck drivers themselves don't believe this.

Because he can also see that the relationship between Roland and Kate is no longer a mutual call before the Oscars.

Seeing the two of them mingling there, he felt like he had fallen into a sugar heap.

As for whether this situation is good or bad?

For movies, of course it's good, a thing like a romance movie, if you don't move yourself, how can you move the audience?

But for Roland and Kate......

Then he doesn't know.

However, the current thing, isn't it to shoot "Titanic" first?
