Made in Hollywood

"Is this about Keanu Reeves, the hero of The Matrix? Is he really that bad?"

On the path of the University of California Institute of Technology, two people, a man and a woman, who are obviously lovers, were discussing the gossip they had just seen. "I think his personal life is too bad."

The girl shook her head and rolled the newspaper in her hand into a ball, "I originally felt sorry for him for not encountering good works in the past few years, but now I think he should sink."

This is an influential weekly gossip magazine in the United States, focusing on publishing a heavyweight gossip news.

"The unknown side of Hollywood stars - the double life of Keanu Reeves before and after the camera!"

It can be said that the gossip news is aimed at Keanu Reeves, which mainly mentions Keanu Reeves' drug history, and exaggerates that he is still using heroin. Drugs and Duke arguing on set - that's true, they just moved what happened in "Life and Death" to the set of "The Matrix" - dumping her seriously ill sister, etc., almost all negative information.

And the people who write the news are very sophisticated, using 80% truth and 20% false. For example, Keanu Reeves was indeed an addict, but after the death of River Phoenix, he quit his drug addiction.

Another example is Keanu Reeves' sister is indeed seriously ill, and because of his work, Reeves does not visit her many times a year, but the best medical conditions and expensive expenses that the other party enjoys are all basic Nuo Reeves is in charge.

These media that hype up negative news naturally ignore the bright spots of human nature and focus on scandals.

The media can guide public opinion, even the gossip media. The real purpose of those who hype this news is not Keanu Reeves.

"Didn't you say you were going to watch The Matrix?" the girl said to her boyfriend. "I don't think it's a good idea, and we shouldn't be going to a movie with this type of actor."

In the ensuing time, more media reprinted and even began to excavate more negative news about Keanu Reeves, including media close to DreamWorks and Sony Columbia, as well as Walt Disney and Twentieth Century Fox. This kind of centrist is not lacking in the media that are born to chase news.

It's true that Walt Disney, Twentieth Century Fox, and Paramount Pictures and Universal Pictures don't have much direct competition with The Matrix. But not only can see other film companies have bad luck, but also attract attention and drive newspaper sales, few people will refuse.

Duke and Warner Bros., of course, knew that this was someone targeting The Matrix by targeting the actors, and they reacted immediately.

First, let Keanu Reeves and his sister come out to refute the rumors. After mobilizing the media to build momentum for him, Duke also stood up to express his support for Reeves and publicly refuted those with ulterior motives.

"Keanu is the most peaceful actor I've ever seen. He doesn't look like a star at all. His food, clothing, housing, and transportation are no different from ordinary people. When the filming was the most stressful, he asked me for leave several times to visit his sister. If he is a The words of an irresponsible brother. Then there will be no responsible brother in the world!"

Those media with ulterior motives did not spare Duke, but Duke was in addition to playboy and private life. There are so few places to be blamed, and that's never been a problem for the public and Hollywood.

After all, he wasn't as stupid as Morgan Freeman. Start with your own step-granddaughter.

This is a great gift from Warner Bros. for the rival "Crash"!

Time Warner's gossip media, after trying its best to help Keanu Reeves refute the rumors, then threw out a heavyweight scandal, which easily caught everyone's attention, but Keanu Reeves' affair become insignificant.

"Morgan Freeman and his sixteen-year-old granddaughter are insane!"

This thrilling title almost shocked the United States. This veteran actor has always been the representative of black people in Hollywood, and is synonymous with black gentlemen!

The report was about the incoherent relationship between Morgan Freeman and his second wife's granddaughter, Adina Hines, the famous black movie star from Adina's teenage years. I wanted to get her hands on her, and I finally succeeded last year, which vividly described how the two had sex in a California hotel, fully showing the essence of gossip media.

In this land, there will not be a problem that a movie is released because of a huge scandal about an actor, but the problem is that this kind of unethical relationship is definitely challenging the bottom line of mainstream society and the public , Now the American society has not yet reached the stage of being insensitive by the many scandals exposed on the Internet in the future.

Although it was just a gossip media report, Morgan Freeman was instantly pushed to the cusp.

The veteran black movie star was not an idiot. He immediately stood up and refuted it. The next day many media published his refuted remarks. Morgan Freeman's lawyer also announced that he would sue those newspapers and magazines that published the scandal for defamation. Magazine.

However, Warner dared to instigate a counterattack in this way, and must be well prepared and obtained practical evidence.

For some things, exposing all the materials at one time may not necessarily have the most sensational effect. Continuous bombing will often have a more obvious effect.

Just before Morgan Freeman's lawyer announced that it was less than an hour, the entertainment section of Yahoo!

In the evening, the entertainment channel of Fox Television simply broadcast a surveillance video from last year, in which Morgan Freeman and Adina Hines can clearly be seen walking into the hotel room one after another. came out in an hour.

It's enough here. Even if Morgan Freeman can come up with a thousand kinds of explanations for what's going on in the room, he can't resist the burning spirit of gossip in the public, as well as the tolerance limit of the mainstream media. Although the media has no bottom line. But they have always made it their duty to oversee the country and society not to make mistakes.

In just one night, the media that bombed Keanu Reeves all changed to track and report the Morgan Freeman scandal, and even the media that first exposed the Keeves scandal also put the most capable people. Paparazzi and reporters were sent to Morgan Freeman's door.

Among them, Fox TV Entertainment Channel once again resorted to a big killer, and drove the live TV car to the door of Morgan Freeman's house.

"Why is the media reaction related to the six major companies so fast?"

In the living room of the house, Tina Fey accompanied Duke to watch the live broadcast of Fox Television Entertainment Channel and asked, "So enthusiastic, especially Sony Columbia, aren't they working with DreamWorks?"

"DreamWorks is all about getting bigger and becoming a new giant, but getting bigger will touch the interests of existing forces."

Depending on where you stand, what you see is also different. Duke has already planned to focus on cultivating Tina Fei, so he simply explained something more clearly, "The rise of any new force must break the old one. In balance, Hollywood has only had dead giants for decades, but no newly rising power."

"To a certain extent, the competition between the six major companies is an internal contradiction of the traditional forces." He continued, "And when DreamWorks joins in, it is an external contradiction. As long as the time is right, the traditional forces will inevitably unite. Together, crush DreamWorks, like this time."

To put it bluntly, Morgan Freeman is just an excuse and a victim of the six major companies to suppress DreamWorks.

Tina Fey quickly understood the connection, but asked tentatively, "What if our Duke studio grows bigger in the future?"

"Either it will be acquired by Warner Bros. or another company." Duke gave the answer without any hesitation, "Either you face a similar situation to DreamWorks or the bankrupt Carlock Pictures and Orion Pictures."

"So, we want to carry out in-depth cooperation with Warner?" Tina Fei nodded knowingly.

"Tina, you've been in this circle for a while, you should be able to tell." Duke's eyes returned to the TV, and countless paparazzi and reporters were harassing the Morgan Freeman workers who came out to throw the trash. , "Some problems can't be solved by big movie sales at all!"

Just like DreamWorks this time, "Clash Between Heaven and Earth" can be said to be very suitable for summer popcorn, but when Warner threw a lead, other forces rushed to suppress them. The Morgan Freeman scandal is indeed It cannot cause a fatal blow to the film, but it can affect the viewing choices of a considerable number of audiences and bring a certain impact on the box office.

DreamWorks can be said to have a certain strength at this stage, but in the face of the encirclement and suppression of major traditional forces relying on Time Warner, News Corporation, Viacom, Sony Entertainment and other large groups, there is no strength to fight back, Morgan? Freeman was doomed to be haunted by scandals for a few years, and "Crash" was doomed to be implicated by his important actor.

From what happened to DreamWorks, "Crash" and Morgan Freeman in just one day, Duke can also deduce that if his ambitious and unrealistic delusions were only funded by a good movie and a certain amount of money. The Duke Studio is completely enlarged, what kind of repression will it face in the future, and wanting to be among the top forces in Hollywood is actually not something that can be solved by the movie at all.

In the following two days, the mainstream media behind the six major film companies also joined the ranks of criticizing and hyping the Morgan Freeman scandal. The veteran black movie star became a national celebrity at a faster speed than before. People, Warner Bros. and other companies also took advantage of the situation to do some work behind the scenes, doing everything possible to suppress "The Clash of Heaven and Earth".

Suppressing DreamWorks is Hollywood-style political correctness. (To be continued ~^~)
