Chapter 249: Film is an art of deception, and the film industry magnifies deception
In the early morning of September 5, '97, a photo appeared on the front page of major newspapers and media, which shocked the people of America, Roland Allen, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt, stood at the window with a smile on his face, holding a baby in his arms.
The baby was about a year old, staring at the greenery outside the window with big watery eyes, while Roland, who was holding the doll, reached out with his right hand and pulled the green leaves of the branches that had reached the window, as if he wanted to tease the child.
Behind the two of them is a well-displayed hospital set, and a person is lying on the bed.
But because Roland's figure blocked it, only the back half of the bulge could be seen, that is, the legs covered by the futon.
In addition, the doctors and nurses in uniform stood beside the bed, bowing their heads, as if they were telling the patient something.
At first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong with this photo, close-up, people, long view, full of layering, the joy of the young father harvesting the baby, showing it vividly, coupled with the problem of shooting angle, it can give the audience who appreciates the photo, creating a sense of satisfaction of peeping into other people's private lives, and the spontaneous desire to peep may make this photo win the award!
But the problem is, the photo is fine, the problem is the subject of the photo's expression!
The person who appears in the photo is Roland Allen!
Since the nineties, Roland Allen has appeared in front of the public like a divine soldier, and since then, this guy who seems to have been kissed by God has been lucky, not to mention the big hits, and the most important thing is that with the increase in salary, the family is still harmonious, you know, because of the explosion of wealth and family splits, here in America, it is not uncommon.
Roland Allen was not affected by it, and this alone has made the public envious, in addition, his stable and good growth process is also the reason why parents from all walks of life are willing to let their children take him as a role model.
In ninety-two, at the age of twelve, he rejected the courtship of the daughter of a star real estate developer in New York.
This is undoubtedly true in the eyes of the public.
No one wants their children to be unproductive at that time because they are too young.
Ninety-three years, at the age of thirteen, the image of a brave brother swept the ball.
This, in the eyes of the public, is undoubtedly excellent.
In the case of a family of at least three or four children, the eldest child protects the younger child, and the family gets along in harmony, which is obviously what parents want to see the most, not only because the relationship is healthy, but also because the harmony between family members makes it easier for adults to lead the family.
In ninety-four years, when he was fourteen years old, his diligent and studious figure made him directly become someone else's child in the mouth of his parents.
At this age when they are about to enter high school, the American stalwarts who watched Roland grow up little by little, after learning that Roland could spend more than a year asking Tom Hanks for advice in order to perform, the tenacity and self-consciousness conveyed by this sub-media made Roland the best material for them to teach their children.
If it ends here, the fans who belong to Roland, those children, may be disgusted.
Because no one wants the guy they like to be their role model.
Or, along the way, Roland has behaved too well.
Why do child stars fall suddenly?
In fact, it is because of the child stars who can explode, and the fan base is all-in!
When you are ten years old, adults and children love you.
But from the age of fifteen, a watershed appeared.
Under the age of fourteen, regardless of the family, adults generally dominate when it comes to communication.
Whatever adults like, they will recommend to their children.
And children at this stage are also the most receptive to the recommendations of adults.
But from the age of fifteen, children who enter adolescence grow up rapidly......
Children who want to control their own lives will become very rebellious, what adults like, they may hate something, adults will treat Roland as someone else's child, even if these children once liked Roland, then they will hate because of love, because they feel that Roland is already a role model, not the self they once wanted to see!
The two sides have drifted apart.
However, at the age of ninety-five, at the age of fifteen, Spider-Man was born!
The superhero who represents the troubles of adolescent children makes the possibility of love and hatred disappear without a trace!
When the children listened helplessly to their parents' preaching and helplessly listened to how good Roland was, they also found that the perfect Roland in the mouths of their parents also had a lot of troubles, and Roger Ebert's 'Peter Parker is Roland Allen' film review made the children who were already able to accept external information on their own be extremely excited.
It turns out that Roland is still the Roland we are familiar with!
He, like us, wants to fly freely!
After that, in ninety-six years, the officially announced love movie at the age of sixteen made those children who were restless because of their hormones extremely excited - not because of the huge investment of 200 million, but because they understood that Roland had always been with them!
He's not the perfect role model for his parents, he's a human being!
He also has joys and sorrows, and he also has love and hatred!
That's why I'm seeing God! This turned out to be true! Sensational ball photos! Roland Allen and his illegitimate daughter! After such a news headline, although the children who liked Roland were shocked and speechless, the excitement overflowed their chests, and after seeing the photos published in the newspaper, a capital OL was shouted out by them!
βhowβββ
βwhaββtβββ
βis this trueοΌβ
"Absolutely, yes! This must be Roland Allen! β
"Oh! I couldn't breathe β where the hell did this picture come from? β
"Hospital! Hospital! All the displays in the photos are exactly the same as the hospital! He disappeared for more than a year, did he go to be a father? Who is the child's mother? ohοΌοΌ If I'm not mistaken, it seems to have been reported in the media before that his girlfriend was ...... Kate? Did they give birth to children? Wrong! They were still filming last year! β
"Not Kate? Who would that be? Reese? Cressy has also had a new movie released in the past two years! β
In the face of such blockbuster news, the children, who have always been the main contributor to the box office of Roland, are very excited!
While they were still dating girls, Roland had already gotten the child out?
Hold the grass! It's hidden deep enough!
Is it any wonder that after "Jurassic Park", he, like a salted fish, turned out to have a girlfriend?
Of course, while these children are shocked and excited, offline complaining is far from being one of the feedback channels for Roland fans, or rather, with the emergence of explosive news, the Yahoo and IDB communities, which have been accepted by people in recent years, have been crowded with a crazy influx of visits! Usually, the hottest section has hundreds of replies a day, but now, the follow-up posts under Yahoo News have more than 300 in two hours.
Even though the content of the topic post is very simple, just a transfer of newspaper news, the users who reply to the post are unusually positive, and young users have expressed their surprise and desire to know the gossip.
'Who was the girl who gave birth to Roland?' β
βogοΌ I'm also eighty years old! I want to have a baby for Roland too! β
'Oh my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! This is definitely the most explosive news I've heard this year! It's even more explosive than the news that J was being sued again! He was exactly as Roger Ebert said, Peter Parker! Peter also has a lot of girlfriends! But I really want to know! What does the girl who gave birth to him look like! Is it pretty? β
If young people are receptive and they think Roland's daring behavior is really cool, then middle-aged people over thirty years old, or those adults who want their children to learn from Roland, are confused.
Although in this country, many parents will acquiesce and care for their children to have exploratory interactions with the opposite sex after their children reach high school, or some parents even encourage and support their children to be healthy, but ...... What the hell is it to make your belly bigger? That's not what they want to see!
So, when those young people curiously asked who the girl who gave birth to Roland was, regardless of whether it was online or offline, those adults were showing their anger and incomprehension.
"Oh! Is Roland Allen such a person? β
"Oh my God! I used to think he was a very good boy......"
"Is this photo a still from the set? If notβI simply can't accept thatβ"
"This kid is at least a year old, isn't he? Roland will become an adult on January 1 next year, which means that last year, before the filming of "Titanic", the child was born? If you count it like this, the year before last, after the filming of "Spider-Man", a girl was pregnant with his child? How old was he then? Fifteen years old? Just announced the filming of "Spider-Man"? β
A large number of middle-aged people, accepting incompetence.
Speaking of which, America is a strange place, it is both open and conservative.
That's right, their openness is manifested in the fact that the vast majority of people think that after high school, their children can officially associate with the opposite sex, even if they have a relationship, and after that, before getting married, they can play as much as they want.
Not only that, but they also advocate the freedom to be in love.
And their conservatism is reflected in the fact that America does not advocate abortion.
Well, to describe the environment here as not advocating abortion is really glorifying them.
As soon as many people hear this, they think that there is something wrong, advocating freedom of love, freedom of relationship and not advocating abortion, there is no relationship between the two at all! But here's the problem......
They are paradoxes of opposites.
If you are free in love and free in relationships, the chance of killing people will be greatly increased, and if you don't advocate abortion, the woman will give birth to the child in most cases, followed by a series of discrimination.
This discrimination is more pronounced in conservative areas, and the most visible manifestation is ......
Many girls will lose the opportunity to go to school because of this.
Many of the boys either ran away or were dissuaded from school.
It was not until 1973 that the Supreme Court of America ruled in Roe v. Wade, upholding Roe's complaint and directly overturning the anti-abortion laws of 46 states, making abortion legal in America.
Since then, young people who are not threatened to have children will feel that pregnancy and childbirth are a responsible thing.
Adolescent girls are enlarged by boys, and then give birth to children with the support of boys.
It's a very rebellious, very cool thing.
And the adults who have gone through the dark times think that this is cool, don't do it.
Because they watched how many people fell into the bottom of their lives.
Because they know what kind of impact becoming a father and mother too early will have on the lives of those people.
If before, Roland Allen was an example for his children to learn from in the eyes of adults, then now, he can roll as far as he can -
A good-natured parent would say something like, "Listen, honey, you might think Roland Allen's behavior is cool, but ...... Believe me, he's wrong to do this, you can be free to socialize, you can have a relationship freely, but be healthy, healthy understand? β
Bad-tempered parents will forcibly forbid "Tear me up the Roland Allen poster on your wall!" He's not for you! I agree that you guys are in love! I encourage you to have a relationship! But we don't want you to ruin yourself! β
If before, Roland Allen was first a peer like himself in the eyes of children, and then the child next door in the mouth of his parents, and then gradually evolved into the perfect embodiment of boredom, then now, he is the most beautiful cub in his age!
He did one of the coolest things his peers!
In the face of the parents' preaching, regardless of whether they have always liked Roland, or have liked it before, but because Roland's performance is too perfect, he gradually lost his feelings, and only because of the IP of Spider-Man that he went to the theater to support him, or they have never been interested in Roland, and now, because of the parents' preaching, their position is extremely firm-
"I don't!"
"I just like Roland!"
"Because they won't be as hypocritical as you are!"
"I won't live hypocritically to please you!"
"You have been telling us to learn from Roland, and when we learned from Roland, you said no to us! What did he do wrong? Didn't he just do what you said he had done every step of the way? β
"Isn't there anything wrong with having the courage to take responsibility even if something happens?"
Why are child stars the most vulnerable to thunderstorms during the transition?
Isn't it because they simply don't know which level of fans to please?
If you continue to please adults, then they will gradually distance themselves from their peers, and if they please children of the same age, they will have to do something that will make adults feel uncomfortable, and in the process of making this trade-off, all the guys who started as child stars died violently.
Because transformation is in pain, but capital will not accept it!
If you can't make money, you get out!
If the publicity content only stays here, then in the words of the industry, Fox is to screen the audience before the release of "Titanic", because the whole movie is about love, so they want to attract Roland's largest and most hopeful part of the fan base to the theater, to put it mildly, that is, young people yearn for love, and it is better to deceive.
Before the movie is released, let fans see the coolest thing Roland has done, and then take the opportunity to promote the content of the movie to achieve the psychological hint of 'my idol is so handsome, I have to support a wave'.
But again, it's risky.
Before the movie was released, the producer took the initiative to screen fans, which was actually an extremely brainless act.
So, when America and the next are all by God! This turned out to be true! Sensational ball photos! Roland Allen and his illegitimate daughter! The news shocked and stood in line, and even the major media took the opportunity to get a piece of the pie and commented on the impact of this news on the public...... Fox TV jumped out on the third day of news fermentation.
"According to our forensic investigation, this photo is real, but the description is fake......"
"After many comparisons, we found the location where the photo was taken, that is, the county hospital in North Hollywood, and after our communication, the staff here confirmed that Roland had been here, and the time was half a year ago."
"Their footage is covered once every six months, and when we passed, it was almost a week before their video coverage, and when we looked through the footage, we found out that Roland Allen had indeed held a child, but that child was not his, but the child of a police officer injured in the North Hollywood robbery on February 28, '97."
"According to the information from the hospital, we found the police officer, and it just so happened that after finding out that his daughter had inexplicably made the headlines of the newspaper, the police officer was also trying to find a way to ask the media for help, so we invited them to the studio......"
As soon as this show came out, the two groups that were still arguing with each other seemed to be choked by the throat by fate, revealing a picture of 'It turned out to be fake? I'm going to suffocate'......
Today's big melon, which can make them excited for three days, turned out to be a rumor spread by the media?
With the appearance of the parties, the ratings of Fox TV also soared wildly, and when the public saw Fox's expatriate reporter find the hospital in the photo, the ward where Roland was, and saw the police officer involved holding his daughter and doing the same, the adults who had also strongly asked the child to tear off Roland's poster breathed a sigh of relief......
In Hollywood, the police also came forward to prove that the doll that made the front page headlines of major media was indeed the birth of the injured police officer, and also produced various records of the hospital at that time to corroborate......
A sense of ease, clinging to the hearts of adults.
βdanοΌ I didn't expect these media to do such a thing as rumor-mongering in order to compete for sales! β
"I mean, how did Roland Allen's behavior suddenly become so outrageous?"
"It's okay, it's just a rumor, Roland Allen didn't make a big girl's belly, he was still the same ......"
Of course, there are emotional ones.
βοΌ Do these media have nothing to do after eating? Creating fake news all day long to attract people's attention? β
"It's so damning! This group of rumor-mongering media is going to hell! β
"Why are they pouring dirty water on Roland? Why? β
Just as the adults frantically refuted the rumors that Roland had a child, in the previous three days, the young people who regarded Roland Allen as a representative of coolness and the most beautiful cub in their age were confused.
βwhatοΌ Is it a fake? β
βohβ¦β¦ In other words, Roland doesn't have a daughter? β
"Oh my God...... It's really disappointing......"
However, just as they regretted it, a question was also circulated wildly through online and offline media-
"Wait? Is the message fake? β
"Why is there any media out of the box that is suddenly sending out fake news? Could it be in Black Roland? β
βogοΌ Is this intentional for someone in Black Roland? His new movie is coming soon! β
"Yes, yes, yes! Roland Allen's new movie is a romance! And before the release of the romance film, the scandal of the illegitimate child suddenly broke out, which must have been an attempt to hit his career! An investment of 200 million! If his grades are not good, he is afraid that he will never be able to get up again! β
"I think too! These guys are going for Roland! If the situation in the photo was true, it would have been exposed by the media a long time ago, and there would be no need to wait until now, when the movie is about to be released! β
"It's disgusting! Which media broke the news? Our home Roland is so good! Why would anyone want to hack him? β
"Black him? Is this hacking him? This is obviously trying to make him die! There are still two months before the movie is released, as the starring role of a romance film, at this time the news broke that he had an illegitimate child, doesn't this just want to knock him out of the circle at one time? I'm so excited before I was so excited! I am so sorry to learn the fake news! I didn't expect those people to make us think this way on purpose! As long as we are disappointed in Roland, his films will surely hit the streets! β
When this kind of public opinion was formed, the media that received money from News Corp. followed up one after another, and the cause of the incident was clear, and it turned out that the gossip tabloid that released the news was the small media that wanted to interview Roland during Roland's visit to the police after the North Hollywood robbery, and after being rejected by Roland, they wanted to take revenge.
As for why he chose to fight Roland with an illegitimate child?
In addition to the real hammer photo of Roland just holding the child, Michael Jackson's two lawsuits are also a source of inspiration for them, they feel that the private life of a star can not only damage the star's career, but if he is lucky, he can also collect a hush money from the star, or rather, it is to fool the star to come up with a large sum of money to let himself publish a clarification letter.
Regardless of whether the star career is damaged, or finally reconciled, the matter will not be resolved, which will make money for them.
After such news spread, the gossip tabloids that wanted to destroy Roland by performing bad deeds suddenly became a thorn in the side of the people, a thorn in the flesh, and the previous discussion of 'who is the girl who gave birth to Roland', 'Roland is too easy to bring bad children' remarks, disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by 'Who wants to harm Roland?'" β
Not only that, but after learning that the gossip tabloids were planning to emulate the behavior of the media to consume J, J's fans also came to an end, "On the surface, this incident is a revenge for the gossip tabloids, and they retaliate against Roland for not accepting interviews with him, but in fact, Roland is not the first victim, and is far from the last." β
"Let's take the J mentioned this time, Chandler and his son have been staring at J, sucking blood from him, taking 20 million before was not enough, and now they want to ask for 60 million."
"We don't know if their accusations exist, we only know one thing, if it weren't for these media outlets, the Chandler father and son would never have succeeded so smoothly."
"That's right, we have always regarded Chandler's actions as blackmail, their purpose is for money, if they really want to get justice, and really feel that their children have been wronged, then will he repeatedly mention the incident after receiving compensation? Will he tell the media that my son has been violated? β
"Again, I'm sure the media knows there's a problem, but they can do anything for the sake of ratings."
"It was J before, it's Roland now, and there will definitely be more in the future."
"I'll admit, we love watching celebrities, but we hate malicious fabricated slander."
At this point, when the 'truth was revealed', Roland, who had disappeared for a week, finally appeared.
He expressed his indignation at the gossip tabloids in front of the media, and also emphasized that he had united with the Los Angeles police to resolutely use legal weapons to defend his rights, which made the people applaud.
Just when the people were cheering for Roland's steadfast rights protection, ABBC, CBS and other news stations also seemed to have discovered a new continent, constantly revealing to the outside world the itinerary that Roland was secretly photographed by the 'paparazzi' in the past year and a half.
On September 26, ABC was the first to release a 'candid' photo of Roland and Kate traveling together in Mexico in early '96.
Such news instantly attracted the attention of the people.
On October 3, News Corp. threw out a 'candid' video of Roland dressing Kate at the Berlin Film Festival in '96.
The sweet and greasy performance made fans who knew they were in love.
On October 10, the beginning of '96, the picture of the two laughing hand in hand in Greece was 'accidentally' dug up by NBC.
Holding the drawing board, she focused on drawing Kate's figure, which made the female fans bleed all over the place.
On October 17, Fox TV, which saw that the news had been exposed, reluctantly disclosed some filming footage of "Titanic", and accused its peers of being inauthentic in their exposure behavior.
But at this time, there are no more people helping Fox to shout, and no one cares that they were angrily spraying those gossip tabloids fabricated stars out of nothing, and everyone was attracted by the footage of the two holding hands!
However, if that's all there is to it, that's it.
On October 24th, N, who has been focusing on current political news, finally came up, and they released a 'candid photo' of the night, although it was a little blurry, but Roland's fans could still see that the main background of the photo was the home where Roland had lived for almost 18 years, and the Christmas tree at the door indicated that it was Christmas, and the two people holding hands together......
Isn't that Roland and Kate?
Hold the grass! Did Kate go to Roland's house last Christmas?
What a thief!
Just when the people were shocked and speechless by the real hammer photos thrown by these media, on October 31, CBS, a subsidiary of Paramount's parent company Viacom, also broke out the last set of photos.
Roland Allen went to Kate's house during the filming of "Saving Private Ryan......
The two of them lay on the lawn of the estate, looking up at the sky......
When a group of 'paparazzi standard' photos appeared, Roland's female fans were all going to GC......
"Oh my God! It's so sweet! It's so sweet!! It's so sweet!! β
"Wow! They're really in love! It's really in love! β
"Roland is so handsome! Kate is so beautiful! They are such a good match! β
"Were we together at the beginning of last year? Sure enough, the guess on the IDB was correct! And from the perspective of time, they are not in love because of the drama, but first dating, and then filming? This, this, this...... I've watched the action of getting dressed a hundred times! I envy Kate! How nice it would be if I were Kate......"
"Oh! Roland looks so handsome in a tuxedo and a gentlemanly salute to Kate! Kate also smiled so sweetly! β
"Don't you all see the point? The point is that they have already gone to each other's houses! Wow! The picture of two people lying on the lawn is so beautiful! Huh? The last one? Isn't there any other photo? β
"Can anyone tell me when Titanic will be released? Let me die in the theater! β
"Does anyone know the name of the tabloid that broke the news that Roland had an illegitimate child before? I swear to God that if Roland's movie hits the streets, I'll burn down their building! β
And the older fans who portray Roland as a role model for their children, or parents over the age of 30, are also relieved...... "It's okay, Roland is not just playing." β
"I was relieved to see Roland and Kate's serious looks."
"They are so low-key, they should really love each other, right? If it weren't for this slander incident, maybe they wouldn't have taken the initiative to make it public? Oh...... Really cute little guys, like kittens and puppies, full of hope for the future......"
"Seeing them love each other so much reminds me of the past......"
"By the way, when will Titanic be released? Just support them......"
As for those male fans who are the same age as Roland......
Sorry, they are not among the subjects that must be controlled by this announcement.
In other words, from the moment the publicity arrangement was set, Roland's male fans have been excluded.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Roland, your current image is a little too perfect."
Earlier, in Fox's office, in the publicity and distribution team of "Titanic", the publicity team looked at Roland and said helplessly, "We all know that child stars who can become popular are all fans of all ages, but the problem is that as child stars grow up, they will face a problem, you can call it transformation, or the trade-off of the fan base." β
"You became popular with "Home Alone", at your age, children of the same age as you were brought into the theater by their own parents, do you remember "Terminator 2"? An R-rated movie, even if children your age like you, they have to find a way to get their parents to bring them into the theater. β
"At that time, you have to behave perfectly, because parents don't want to see a bad child become the object of their children's affection, but as they get older, those children who can't enter the theater by themselves have a certain amount of spending power, and at this time, their sense of autonomy will also awaken, and when they are bored with their parents who often talk about them on weekdays, you have to make a choice, whether to capture the younger group or the elderly."
"And you, you didn't make any choice in this matter."
"Spider-Man, let you ignore this potential problem for a while."
"However, it's different now, Titanic doesn't have the aura of Spider-Man."
"Then we have to make a choice, and our plan is to pull one by one, and make it as successful as possible."
"Pull one refers to winning over a fan base of the same age as you, and those young people believe in love more, so this is our box office fundamentals, and we can't lose it no matter what."
"Hit one, it's those adults who want to impose their ideas on the same fan base as you, these guys eat your perfect image more, and if we want to pull them at the box office, we have to use some means."
"First of all, it is to use public opinion to beat down your image, so that those young people think that you are cool and worthy of their own worship."
"And in the process, adult fans will feel that you are not the same as back then, and they will gradually give up on you."
"Then, when those young people are excited and adults regret, use facts to turn previous public opinion into rumors, so that young people will be disappointed and adults will be surprised."
"If you just do this, it will have a big impact on your image, because you offend both fan bases, but we can dump the blame."
"Throw the responsibility for the whole thing directly on the media, not only that, but we can also win over superstars who have suffered the same treatment as you, so that their fans, those who can empathize, speak for you."
"The person we choose is J, who is deeply troubled by public opinion."
"But don't worry, J is just a springboard in this matter, because the public opinion that ruined your image is our people, and we can make him publicly admit that he is smearing you, but Chandler and his son will not admit it, so ...... It will only be you who will benefit, and you don't have to worry, J will suddenly overturn the case, and that kind of influence will disrupt the rhythm of our publicity. β
"After that, when you are smeared and whitewashed, those young people who thought you were too perfect and not cool before, we can use public opinion that someone dares to attack you, and those adults who still think you are perfect will become your basic plate again because of your sudden encounter, and at this time, we will unite with various media to release photos of you in the past year and a half."
"Let the sweet and greasy love attract the attention of the public."
"Before, those young people who thought that you might be drifting away from themselves, or those female fans who already liked your appearance, would be crazy to defend you, because whether they participated in the previous smear or the subsequent whitewashing, they will feel guilty in their hearts, and at this time, with loyal love, it will be a lore for them."
"Because the fantasy of guilt can make them burst out with great purchasing power."
"Adults who already feel that your perfect image has not been damaged will also go into the theater because they encourage their children to learn from your healthy and stable way of socializing and avoid 419 behaviors......"
"When these two basic markets will choose to buy tickets to enter, your male fan base will be better solved."
"This is a love movie! Your female fans are all in the cinema, will the male fans not enter? β
"Even if they don't like romance movies, even if they don't think you're cool, even if they just like Spider-Man, it doesn't matter, because they can also fantasize about being able to trick their girlfriends after watching romance movies......"
"So, we need your cooperation."
"Keep your perfect image, make the off-the-court romance real and believable, make the female fans who yearn for a good love feel like you're talking about the love they want, let the adult fans think that you're a devout believer in love, the guy who can continue to be a role model for young people, and everything else...... Leave it to us. β
"ABC is Disney's, N is Warner's, CBS is Viacom's, and Fox is ours."
"Everyone is an insider, except for Warner, who has cooperated with you."
"As for NBC, it may have been a bit of a hassle before, but now, you just need to authorize NBC and Microsoft's SNNBC services to publish your latest news, I know, Yahoo is your business, but ......"
"Cinema is your foundation, right?"
"I know Bill Gates has seen you, so you just have to agree that NBC will prioritize your news on online services, and they're on the same page as us."
"We usually help you cover up the news, but when it comes to announcing your relationship, we will selectively release photos."
"We can help you cover up, but when it comes to making money, everyone has to have a share, right?"
"Everyone occupies a week's exposure time, which not only maximizes the ratings, but also allows the public to fully digest the news."
"Moreover, you don't have to worry about other problems, when all the media groups can make huge profits from you, it is a choice that everyone will agree to with you, after all, no one will get along with money, so you can't get by......"
"Especially a ...... like you, who can feed everyone"
"As for the feelings of the fans......"
"You don't have to worry about that."
"Film is an art of deception, and the film industry magnifies the effect of deception."
"You're selling illusions they want to see, and deception in this sense is good for everyone."
"Their spirit is satisfied, and our profits are satisfied."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Most of the time, the success of a movie has a certain relationship with the movie itself, but it has nothing to do with it.
The quality of the movie only affects the reputation of the movie, not even the box office trend.
At least in the non-mobile Internet era, that's the case.
Due to the innate asymmetry between the people and the capital, the people will always be in the position of being fooled by capital.
As Neil Bozeman writes in his book "Entertainment to Death", when the rule of television replaces the rule of print, the convenient bombardment of information can gradually transform rationality, order, and logic into detachment, superficiality, and fragmentation.
When the information explosion happens, people have the illusion of having access to a lot of information, but the truth is that they lose even the ability to tell what is valid.
Don't think that the information age makes people erudite, because at the same time that you think you are erudite, it is capital that is depriving you of the ability to think with countless waste information, and at such times, education becomes a kind of entertainment.
Once it reaches the point of entertainment to death, it is not the audience that determines the quality of a movie, but capital.
Film critics say it's good, it's good, traditional media and media say it's good, that's good, once you think it's bad, then there will be countless people who refute your point of view, because it's not social, it's not good.
As for the arguments that take place many times?
It wasn't your aesthetic that played a decisive role, but the capital that wanted to block it and succeeded.
Of course, the exclusion here is already terrible, and the movie that is released just to make money.
Because of those movies, there is no need to use so much effort to maintain public opinion.
Because of this, after the rebellious psychology of fans paved with the destruction of the image, in the face of the explosion of information, people only care about the sweet love between Roland and Kate outside the play, and the damn beauty makes them yearn for it, and then ......
is looking forward to the arrival of pure love movies.
In the era of entertainment to death, it is not a maverick at all to determine the survival of star artists.
A maverick style may make people love you, but without capital, you are nothing.
When capital loves you, you own the world.
Steven Spielberg is like that, James Cameron is like that, and Roland Allen is ......
He wished he could love himself.
When Fox took great pains to attract public opinion to Roland, making the public yearn for the love between Roland and Kate, the premiere on December 14 was also in full swing.
Unlike before, because Roland can eat all the film critics and the media, there is not much space left for them.
Nearly half of the tickets were selectively distributed by them as fan benefits.
As long as the public makes an appointment in IDB's "Titanic" discussion group, they will have the opportunity to be selected and become the lucky winner.
Of course, like the Weibo lottery, the rate of women winning the lottery will be higher.
The purpose is also obvious.
is to let these guys cry at the scene, and then convey their true reflections through the media.
In Fox's words, that'sβ
"With an investment of 200 million, starring Roland Allen, how can I break all the records, right?"
