[US Entertainment] Kise's Hollywood Diary

Leonardo was indeed in a state of anxiety as his uncle visited.

His new movie is a collaboration with his old partner Kate Winslet. They were all good singles, but in the middle of the performance, the heroine and the director sparked - this is so embarrassing!

This is like when he was forced to watch Vincent and that actress in a sex scene when he was filming "The Rock in My Heart" last year!

Although I can fully understand it, the feeling of being forced to feed dog food of various flavors throughout the whole process is really uncomfortable!Since Kate and her director boyfriend established a relationship, they are often in a state of you and me when they come out of the camera. They are very serious during work. Yes, it is this contrast that makes people feel more helpless-he can also be himself. People who produce dog food, why are they forced to feed them?

In addition, one day before he had time to follow the routine, Schulte came up to him and said, "Vincent has another big news."

Leonardo was startled: Could it be that Vincent and another female colleague were blown up again?

But Mr. Manager's expression is obviously "If you know everything, don't hide it from me, hurry up and tell me something special!".

"I didn't expect Vincent to be really good. Why is he still an actor with such an IQ and learning ability!"

Leonardo who heard this sentence could only shrug his mouth in his heart: If he is not an actor, then we can still meet?

Schulte went on to complain: "How long has it been since Facebook went public? Mark Zuckerberg and Phillips Spiket are on the list... If Vincent publicly held shares, he might also be on the list. let's go."

Leonardo's indifferent face: I don't even know how many shares Vincent holds in Facebook. The original shares are one thing, but after the group goes public, it's another.In short, it's my boyfriend who has money to fly!

The manager was still holding the newspaper and sighing while reading it: "If I had forced you to date less and study more, you would probably have a good degree now. It is said that you are not stupid, and I don't expect you to go to Harvard and Cambridge. After all, it is also a New York University..."

You must know that there are many directors, screenwriters, producers, and actors in Hollywood who graduated from New York University.

"When people were busy learning progress and taking time to start a business, they sneaked in to make time to make movies. It really is a matter of talent... Thinking about it this way, I feel much more comfortable." Schulte shot He patted his chest and let out a long breath.

How can this make ordinary people comfortable?Is it common to be able to take advantage of the little golden man's talent in a sneaky time?

Leonardo has nothing to say. He had expected the situation today when he knew the status of Vincent's friends in the circle. The development trend of Facebook is almost unstoppable. The first step after that was to acquire Twitter, which had just emerged from the top, and began to integrate bilateral functions in an extremely fast way. This momentum is even more fierce and powerful.

It is inevitable for such a young and powerful group to go public to seek a broader development platform.Mark Zuckerberg and Phillips Specter, as the two existing faces of Facebook, may have a closer relationship with Vincent than they think.

In the past, Vincent and Facebook were two separate entities, but from now on, Facebook will have its own third, more influential facade.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult to distinguish between the two, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, Vincent is already a part of Facebook.

As Vincent's pillow, Leonardo inevitably thinks of many things that others can't think of.Before Facebook was listed, he would never have imagined that one day, he would earn less than Vincent! !

This is a matter of man's dignity!

To be honest, while Leonardo was happy for Vincent's entrepreneurial success, he couldn't help worrying about his own situation.It is true that he earns a lot in a year, but in the eyes of outsiders, the top box office club is not as relaxed and glamorous as they imagined-the box office pressure must be carried, the pressure of public opinion must be carried, and most importantly, if the effect Not good, if there is no director with a bigger coffee on top, then all the faults will be attributed to himself.

As an actor, if you are a pure actor, then there are very few guarantees except for the salary.Perhaps advertising endorsement is a good way to make money, but the premise of having good advertising endorsement resources is that the status as an actor has been steadily improved

In addition, you can only consider investment or sideline business.In fact, Leonardo himself has been considering a proper transition to a producer since 2003.The early stage of being a film producer is not only not a profitable business, but a career that burns unlimited money. In addition, his film and television company needs to be supported, and Leonardo's financial management team is under a lot of pressure.

Therefore, as an essential entrepreneur, Leonardo can also understand the difficulties in the early stages of entrepreneurship.He can use the connections and resources in his circle to do things that are not in the same field but have a close relationship.But what about Vincent?From architectural design to IT, these two fields have no intersection at all.

Since the development of Facebook, the three founders can still guarantee that they have shares within the safety line, which only shows that the financing pressure in the past few years has not been too great. As for where this strength comes from, Leonard Duo didn't think about anything other than Vincent's contributions and the private affairs of the other two young people.

Leonardo himself didn't dare to put all his eggs in one basket. How could those three young people have the courage to make such a desperate decision?

It is not unreasonable to say that high risk means high return, especially in the IT industry.

When Leonardo was able to spare a little time to rest, the New Year's Eve was over, and he also found a short video posted by Vincent on Facebook during the New Year's Eve.In the video, he and Finny are eating snacks on the small coffee table next to the fireplace.Vincent took a small spoon to drink yogurt for Feeney. Feeney ate with relish. After licking the spoon clean, he looked up at the silly father eagerly. Vincent touched his little head and continued to feed him.

This 1-minute video is simply never tire of watching—just like people who like cats, if they touch a cat casually at work, they may lose their minds and touch it until they get off work.Because Finny has recently been on a moderate diet to lose weight, Vincent gave him a little sweetness, and the little guy almost had tears in his eyes with joy.One feeds happily, one eats happily, one person and one cat will be addicted no matter who they watch.

"Today's four updates are over, and Vincent's mission is complete. My social network updates are not diligent, and there is no way to save [Shashou].jpg"

"I can drink such a small box of yogurt in one gulp. Feeney licked the spoon 7 times in total, um... there was a little left in the end, and I didn't give it to others! The essence of the yogurt is all on the side of the cup and the lid. !!!”

"Any random frame is a drawing, anyway, I'm just responsible for licking the screen!"

"Seeing that I also want yogurt, and they want you to feed them qaq"

"The mission of the quarterly update has been successfully completed. When is the next update? I beg a kind person to let me know when the time comes!"

This video of Vincent shows to a large extent that he is not affected by a major event that is currently being discussed - people sneak away from their busy schedule to tease cats across the New Year, and they don't have time to accept interviews every day to express what they think will.Now whoever is involved in this matter can't tell clearly, it's better not to talk about it.

The screenwriters' strike is not so aggressive as it is that the accumulation of resentment has reached a certain level and exploded like a ticking time bomb.

Beginning at the beginning of November last year, the Writers Guild of America East and the Writers Guild of West "rebelled", and the two associations gathered together as a group to launch a collective strike.It sounds like a joke, but these two screenwriting collectives include almost all screenwriters in the American entertainment and journalism fields for film, television, radio and other news fields.If they don't work, it really means that half of the entertainment industry has to stop.

The rights and interests of screenwriters have always been a big issue that can be seen but also considered invisible. Good people will lose their temper if they hold back for a long time, let alone screenwriters with infinite brains and infinite ideas.In addition to the direct impact on several popular American dramas, this screenwriter's strike directly led to the dismal start of this year's Golden Globe Awards-announcing the nominations the day before, and suffering multiple critiques the day after.

There is no one more speechless than the opening of this year's Golden Globe Awards. After nominated screenwriters, producers, and actors have expressed their stance not to participate in this year's Golden Globe Awards, the impact of the screenwriter's strike has further expanded.

While the Screenwriters Guild was on strike, they demanded negotiations, while the negotiators elected by the Film and Television Producers Union said: You stop, we will negotiate if you stop.With your guns pointed at us, we dare not negotiate!

The Writers Union said: If you don't agree to negotiate with us, we won't stop, and we will go on strike!Just keep pointing the gun at you!

Can this matter get better?Anyway, I haven't announced whether it will be better or not. In less than three months, the entertainment industry in the United States alone has lost more than 3.4 million U.S. dollars. Minutes are increasing every second.This is just a superficial loss statistic. There is no way to estimate the loss of unlimited advertising for the time being, and it is conservatively estimated to be upwards of 90 billion US dollars.

The Golden Globes have already suffered, and the next Oscars and Grammys are in sight.But obviously, it's not over yet.One day without giving an explanation, without adjusting the agreement, the Screenwriters Union will not let go for one day.

After the scene with Leonardo ended, he packed his things and rushed home, and started discussing with Vincent where to go during the holidays.

There's nothing to worry about, because looking at the current situation, the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony probably won't go on.The feature film can't continue, so don't worry about any nominations anymore, it's better to take advantage of this time to relax.
