804 Chaos abounds
Since the "Pacific War", speculation about Renly's net worth and background has never really subsided, especially the mystery that has always shrouded the truth, which has further stimulated people's curiosity and thirst for knowledge.：
In an era where social networks are so developed and the Internet has spread to every corner of the world, is the privacy of any public figure truly confidential? Furthermore, can anyone’s privacy be truly kept confidential?？
On the one hand, there is a steady and unstoppable upward trend; on the other hand, there is an impenetrable and airtight family background. The stark contrast, the huge gap, the asymmetry of information. The more so, the more guesses and doubts there will be..
People on the Internet have even begun to speculate whether this is Renly's "personality"? The agent reversely chose the "mysticism" of the idol stars of the 1980s and deliberately blocked all personal information, which in turn triggered enthusiastic discussions among netizens. If this is true, then there is no doubt that the agent's decision was successful..
The Weinstein brothers only used an ambiguous rumor, and the doubts and discussions floating in the air that had never completely settled began to boil over again, easily and effortlessly; but, if that is all, it cannot be called " "No compromise on means", the means and wisdom of these two brothers are far from that simple..
Roy did not comment rashly and continued to remain silent. Sure enough, Andy's words confirmed Roy's guess, "This is just the first step..”
“Intermittently, there have been rumors in the industry that Renly insists on malicious hype. The so-called professional image, the so-called conscientiousness, the so-called acting first, everything is just a packaging image." Andy's mouth still had a habitual smile. The smile is not because I am in a happy mood, but because it is too ridiculous and too difficult. I am helpless to the extreme, but I feel relaxed again.——
If you have too much debt, the lice will not bite you. Although this description is not appropriate, it is indeed the closest description..
“Including missing out on the Oscars last year; missing out on the Golden Globes this year but attending the Berlin Film Festival; interacting with movie fans on the streets of London, which created a lot of news; including withdrawing from the sequel to 'Fast and Furious' The shooting...even included Berlin." Andy did not describe it in depth, but simply talked about a few incident topics..
At the beginning, Roy could still feel a gurgling anger ringing in his chest - all those events are independent and objective, and the root causes can be found behind them. Connecting these events, it is basically The slander and slander, the ridiculous script is simply unbearable to watch..
But gradually, Roy caught the connection behind the matter: in the final analysis, it was still a game between Renly and the reporter.
There are many celebrities, and due to Renly's high popularity, the focus of reporters' attention is inevitably gathered. However, in the confrontation with Renly, reporters always find it difficult to gain the upper hand. Therefore, every incident is reported and interpreted. During the process, the facts will have slight deviations and misunderstandings, which accumulate bit by bit. Now the Weinstein brothers are cleverly connected, and with a gentle push from behind, and careful guidance, things suddenly become... Getting interesting.
Compare: Ryan Gosling is the best representative of the new generation of acting in Hollywood in the past five years, including "Half Nelson", "Love Doll", "Blue Valentine" and "The President" , "Drive", for four consecutive years, almost every work has been worthy of being nominated for an Oscar, and it has indeed occupied a place in the awards season..
And finally? Just one nomination based on "half Nelson".
There are more than one similar actors, including Generation Y’s Jake Gyllenhaal, Heath Ledger, and Anne Hathaway, and even Generation X’s Matt Damon and Jude Law..
However, Renly has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor for two consecutive years, and also has an Emmy Award for Best Actor. What is the reason? What's the reason? Is it just because Renly Hall is the Marlon Brando of the new century? Or because……
The rumors about the Weinstein brothers gave the right answer, and it was not instilled by them, but only guided and led people to think of the answer on their own: everything is image packaging, everything is malicious hype, everything is a shocking conspiracy, Everything is driven by profit.
Renly Hall, that twenty-two-year-old young man, has all of Hollywood at his fingertips！
Do people mind image packaging and malicious hype? Of course, they don’t mind. Tom Cruise is the first-generation idol created by the entire film industry; however, people mind being deceived. Because every big boss in Hollywood is a superior person who claims to be aloof. They are the group of people who hold the power of life and death. When will it be someone's turn to play tricks on them?？
This is the real mastery！
Roy couldn't help but laugh, "What's going on in Berlin? How come I haven't heard any special news here these days?"？”
“Recently, the German media has been reporting on how approachable Renly is. Not only did he watch the movie in person and integrate into the atmosphere of the film festival, but he also mingled with movie fans and exchanged many opinions with each other. 'Detachment' is unexpectedly at the forefront, It became a popular film in Berlin." Andy said with a smile, "There are rumors in Hollywood that we paid to invite those fans..”
“Pfft." After all, Roy couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing. His saliva spattered out accidentally, hanging on his chin. He was so embarrassed. He took out the tissue paper on the table and wiped it clean. Roy kept exclaiming, "Did Renly and the Weinstein brothers have a feud? They really went all out this time, leaving almost no room for Renly to survive. They not only aimed at this year's awards season, but even wanted to suppress Renly. Go down.”
They are interlocking and advancing layer by layer, one wave after another, with almost no breathing space. Even if Andy is personally in Los Angeles, faced with such a mess, there is no way to start in a short time: to clarify, it seems that there is no way here. Three hundred taels of silver; silenced, seeming to acquiesce in all speculations; refuted, seeming to be angry with shame.
“Huh, if I remember correctly, Harvey Weinstein actually took a fancy to the publishing rights of 'Crazy Love' and started negotiations with Renly." Andy briefly stated one thing, but what followed Roy can complete the brainstorming.——
After going round and round, Renly and Harvey are still on opposite sides; entangled, "Crazy Love" still starts a duel with "The Artist". Originally, Renly was one of the stumbling blocks for the Weinstein brothers to reach the top. Coupled with the past grievances and grudges, it is just a convenient thing to do something cruel. You can achieve success and let out a bad breath. Why not do it?？
“It seems that Renly really offended Harvey." Roy actually had the intention to make a joke at this time..
Andy also made the same conclusion, "To put it simply, in Hollywood now, Renly is a devil who does all kinds of evil, is unscrupulous, full of tricks, and superb methods." The straightforward and cruel language seemed to say that the conversation said It was not Renly, but an unrelated stranger..
Rumors and rumors are an integral part of Hollywood. Many people are in a wait-and-see attitude, and many others remain skeptical because the source of the news is the Weinstein brothers. But it is undeniable that public opinion needs It's not a fact, it's just a trend, that's enough.
The meeting between the Coen brothers and Renly in the cinema a few days ago was just the tip of the iceberg. If Renly learns about all this, the attitude of the Coen brothers can find the root of the matter..
The more independent creators insist on pursuing their artistic pursuits, the more obvious and intense their aversion to malicious hype and fame-seeking will become. Woody Allen is a leader among them. He has only attended one Oscar ceremony so far. It vividly displays the nobility and arrogance of artists and literati.
The Coen brothers are also one of the representatives of this type of artist.
The influence of the incident is spreading bit by bit, and the situation is more serious than imagined..
“So, what about George Clooney? "Roy asked again..
In fact, in the battle for best actor during this year's awards season, George has the greatest chance..
In terms of overall strength, Renly is indeed a strong opponent; but in terms of prestige, reputation, connections, foundation, etc., and even this year's George's works, "The Descendants" and "The Presidential Killing Game", do not need publicity at all Build momentum, and "momentum" will naturally be formed.
As expected, he was his former agent. Roy's keen sense recognized Andy's approval, and he gently lowered his chin, "Hollywood is now remembering the golden age of Hollywood, especially those top actors who were handsome and graceful. Malone -Brando, Montgomery-Clifft, Paul Newman.”
Andy didn't answer Roy's question, but the answer couldn't be more obvious..
First, "The Artist" is a work that commemorates the golden age of Hollywood. It tells the story of the period when movies transitioned from silent to sound, the struggle and pain of actors, the golden years, and is full of poetry; second, Jean-Dujardin The temperament of George Clooney is a typical golden age handsome guy, elegant, calm and amazingly charming..
In this year's competition for Best Actor, Jean and George are more similar in temperament, but the other three candidates are not..
In fact, in some magazine photos, Renly is also considered to be an actor with golden age charm. His handsome and elegant temperament shows a maturity and stability that belies his age. However, in the work "Crazy Love", What is presented is Renly's youthful and energetic style. Therefore, naturally it does not meet the standards..
The Weinstein brothers obviously united with George. While promoting "artists", they also borrowed George's power and successfully promoted Jean Dujardin to the top step by step. Don't forget that during this year's awards season, George took the initiative to give platform.
This situation reminds people of the Oscars three years ago, when the little-known French actor Marion Cotillard became the biggest winner of the night! Now, Jean-Dujardin is trying to replicate this miracle route.
