Chapter 1880

"It's just a second tier actor. What's the costume there?"

"No one cares about your leaving, no one even knows Brian O'Connor, OK?"

"Please don't play on your own, just leave. What's the matter with sending videos to find the sense of existence?"

"Finally left, I feel that without you, that series of films can be seen."

"It's a little bit of a fuss. It's Hollywood."

"It's hype again. I know you had an accident. Next

"Isn't he still alive? Why do you look like you're going to die? "

This is always the case in the Internet age of the 21st century. The fuzzy faces hidden behind computers and mobile phones bring negative and dark emotions into full play. They attack one by one in a twisted and ferocious way. It seems that they superimpose all their pain and hatred on the network, and then speculate all things maliciously, Only in this way can we save ourselves from the disaster and turn the world into a powder keg.

Even in the face of Paul Walker, who just escaped from a car accident not long ago, all kinds of negative comments are still put on him. It seems that all the resentments are just waiting for Paul to die like this - but even if it happens, they will not care at all. Because the online world really doesn't cost them anything to hurt.

But as the classic line in "seven sins" says, "Hemingway once said that the world is beautiful and worth fighting for. I only believe in the second half. "

The Internet age is not hopelessly bad, see the negative side, but also to see the positive side.

After Paul officially announced his decision in the form of video, a group of friends led by Lan Li forwarded the video one after another and expressed their support with practical actions; And Lan Li's tweet clearly shows his position:

It has nothing to do with Paul's fame and the success of "speed and passion". For him, Paul Walker is a very, very important friend. After experiencing a major turn in his life, he supported all of Paul's decisions and sincerely looked forward to meeting Paul again.

That's what really matters, for life and for friendship.

These supporting voices also spread through the network platform, and with the strong influence and appeal of blue rite, the overall situation has been reversed.

Because of the actual support of many friends, Paul's "farewell statement" also received a lot of support. In the negative voice of curse and disdain, talk show hosts such as Alan DeGeneres, Oprah Winfrey and Jay Leno, who are active on the social network platform, expressed their best wishes one after another, Let the mainstream speech of the network really return to the right track, permeated with a warm and moving atmosphere.

Paul's biggest worry is that he has hurt the crew and loyal fans who really like the series of movies. But now, all his worries and fears can be put down for the time being. It will be a good farewell. What's more, this is by no means a farewell.

In the bustling heat, a small voice came out

"What about Universal Pictures?"

What is the attitude of Universal Pictures towards Paul's decision to leave?

Although, after Paul's accident, Universal Pictures has always maintained a positive attitude; But now some people still remember that when there was an internal conflict between Paul and diesel, and between Paul and dawn, Universal Pictures was always on the side of diesel, and even because of the lenley incident, diesel and Paul had a bad time. So, what role did Universal Pictures play when Paul left the crew this time? Are they fanning the flames behind their backs?

In fact, one of the most important reasons for Paul's initiative to release the video to explain the whole story is to clarify the misunderstanding that he chose to leave the crew, not because of the conspiracy of Universal Pictures, but because he left voluntarily.

In the past two years, there has been a lot of unhappiness between Paul and universal pictures, but it still won't affect the friendship between Paul and the crew, and he doesn't want his decision to implicate the crew.

For Paul, his love and support for the "speed and passion" series has never changed. He sincerely hopes that the audience can focus on the seventh film, finish the farewell with Brian O'Connor, and continue to support the "speed and passion" series. Everyone knows that even if Paul leaves, this super profitable series will not stop, They still need to look forward after all.

The bottom line is that the memory of the past is good. It's easy to get together and leave. Paul would rather remember those good times than turn away full of resentment. His personal feud with diesel should not affect the rest of the crew. Anyway, Paul hopes that the audience will continue to pay attention to the "speed and passion" series.

But Hollywood is a place of right and wrong, a little speculation may turn into a conspiracy, and negative news can always easily breed here. In the past two years, Universal Pictures, which has many flaws, naturally has not been able to avoid the attack. Even if Paul clarifies it again and again, it is still unable to completely calm down.

Before the further spread of negative comments, universal pictures also made an official announcement.

The content of the announcement itself is nothing new. It just emphasizes that they are very sorry for Paul's decision to leave. The crew is still looking forward to Paul's continued role in the eighth film - they will not give up their intention to persuade Paul now, and they will always keep an open attitude waiting for Paul's return. But if Paul really decides to turn around, They will also send their most sincere wishes.

In the final analysis, Universal Pictures still emphasizes its innocence and expresses its position. They repeatedly persuade Paul, but they still can't make him change his mind. Next, they will not give up their efforts, but the decision is entirely in Paul's hands, which is not something they can change.

At least, Universal Pictures has made enough gesture, but compared with Paul's sincerity, the announcement of Universal Pictures seems to be standard, not bad, but not much new. From the perspective of crisis public relations, Universal Pictures has maintained its own reserve and position.

But in any case, Universal Pictures has expressed its official position. This also led to another conjecture and discussion: after Paul left, did the "speed and passion" crew become the dominant van diesel family? What impact will this have on the future of the series?

First, the sixth part of Langley's farewell series, and now the eighth part of Paul's farewell series... Of course, these two departures all have their own special factors. We can't shift all the responsibility on the crew or diesel. The external cause is only the auxiliary, and the internal cause is the core. This is an objective fact. It's meaningless to blame anyone unilaterally; But similarly, no one can deny that these two departures are more or less indirectly related to diesel. Is diesel the cancer of the crew?

The layman looks at the scene, the expert looks at the door.

The melon eaters speculated recklessly, organized all the clues randomly and irregularly, and then made up a big play in which the crew competed for power and profit; However, people in the industry are able to follow suit to capture a relatively clear idea. Even if Paul's departure is a purely independent decision, it is a predictable result that diesel's dominance in the crew. Now, the "speed and passion" series is finally becoming his own series as diesel wishes.

But is it really that simple?

……

At this point, diesel was a little depressed.

Of course, it was anger at the beginning, but after the outburst of anger, his thoughts gradually settled down, and doubts and difficulties began to breed. He couldn't think of any solution. Anger had no way to solve the problem, but calmness didn't help much, which made him fall into a dilemma of being left and right, unable to advance or retreat, at the same time holding back and repressing, It turns into depression.

Sitting in the black sofa of the office, desselian is lost in thought on the surface, but the constant shaking of his feet reveals his inner anxiety.

He knows that his own irritability and impulsivity can't help. When the power struggle reaches a certain level, all emotions will become useless. Let alone the multi billion dollar transactions on Wall Street, the top projects of the six major Hollywood film companies alone can't change the rules by making a tantrum.

Last year's uproar at Universal Pictures office was the most important lesson of his career: he finally understood his limitations of vision, and there was a higher level of world beyond his power.

Although he can't really spy on the swords and swords of that level, and can't really understand the strategies of that level, his knowledge structure and personal experience determine that his vision and views can't reach such a level; But this still does not affect his self-knowledge: some things, he can control, and some things, he had better stay away, otherwise there is no place to die.

Temper, still can break out, but need to see the occasion.

It's like at this time, losing his temper doesn't help at all, so diesel needs to calm down. Although calm down doesn't help much, at least he won't lose the initiative.

"Fan?" In the face of such a quiet diesel, Fisher Morgan is not quite used to it - in fact, he hopes diesel can be furious, because such a simple and thick line thing is better to deal with, and now diesel has calmed down, which also means that diesel is more intelligent. He wants to easily control diesel to become his own cash cow, and the difficulty has increased.

The relationship between agents and actors, of course, is cooperative utilization. Is there any other possibility?

Diesel looked up, pondered for a moment, and finally said, "why? Can you tell me why? "
