"This is about Keanu Reeves, the hero of The Matrix? Is he really so unbearable?"
On the trail of the University of California Institute of Technology, two people, a man and a woman who are obviously lovers, are discussing the gossip they just saw, "I think his personal life is too bad."
The girl shook her head and rolled the newspaper in her hand into a ball, "I was sorry for him not having encountered a good work in the past few years, but now I think he should sink."
This is a gossip weekly that is very influential in the United States, focusing on publishing a heavyweight gossip news.
"The hidden side of Hollywood stars-Keanu Reeves's double life before and after the camera!"
It can be said that the gossip news was directed at Keanu Reeves, which focused on the drug history of Keanu Reeves, and exaggerated the claim that he is still taking heroin. The drug problem and Duke arguing on the set-this is true, they just moved what happened in "Life and Death" to the set of "The Matrix"-abandoning the seriously ill sister, etc., almost all negative news.
And the people who write news are very sophisticated, using 80% truth and 20% false. For example, Keanu Reeves is indeed an addict, but after the death of Revan Phoenix, he gave up his drug addiction. -,
Another example is Keanu Reeves’s sister is indeed seriously ill, and because of work, Reeves does not visit her many times a year, but the other party enjoys the best medical conditions and expensive expenses. Nu Reeves is in charge.
These media that hype negative news naturally ignore the shining points of human nature and focus on scandals.
The media can guide public opinion, even gossip media is no exception. The real purpose of the person who hype this news is not Keanu Reeves.
"Didn't you say you want to watch "The Matrix"?" the girl said to her boyfriend. "I don't think it's a good idea. We shouldn't go to movies with actors like this."
In the following time, more media reprinted and even began to dig out more negative news about Keanu Reeves. Among them were the close relationship between DreamWorks and Sony Columbia, as well as Walt Disney and Twentieth Century Fox. This kind of centrist is not short of media that are born to chase news.
Walt Disney, Twentieth Century Fox, Paramount Pictures and Universal Pictures do not have much direct competition with The Matrix. However, few people would refuse to see other film companies' bad luck, but also attract eyeballs to drive newspaper sales.
Of course, Duke and Warner Bros. knew very well that it was someone who targeted the actors to fight "The Matrix" and immediately reacted.
First, let Keanu Reeves and his sister come out to refute the rumors, and then mobilize the media to build momentum for him, Duke also stood up and expressed support for Reeves. Publicly refute those with ulterior motives.
"Keanu is the most peaceful actor I have ever seen. He is not like a celebrity at all. He eats, wears, shelters and transports is no different from ordinary people. When the filming was most stressful, he asked me for leave several times to visit my sister. If the irresponsible brother, then there will be no responsible brother in the world!"
The media with ulterior motives actually did not let Duke go. But apart from **** and private life, Duke has too few places to be blamed. This aspect has never been a problem for the public and Hollywood.
After all, he wouldn't be so stupid as Morgan Freeman did, against his step-granddaughter.
This is a great gift that Warner Bros. prepared for its competitor "Clash of Heaven and Earth"!
Time Warner's gossip media, after trying its best to help Keanu Reeves dispel the rumors, then threw a heavyweight scandal. The scandal easily caught everyone's eyes, but Keanu Reeves's matter became trivial.
"Morgan Freeman has an incestuous relationship with his 16-year-old granddaughter!"
This thrilling title almost shocked the United States. This veteran actor has always been a representative of black people in Hollywood, and is simply synonymous with a black gentleman!
The content of the report is about the inconsistent relationship between Morgan Freeman and his second wife's granddaughter Adina Hines, and it points directly to Adina's teenage years. The famous black movie star wanted to get her hands on her, and finally succeeded last year. It vividly described how the two had **** in a California hotel, which fully demonstrated the nature of gossip media.
In this land, there will be no problems that affect the release of a film because of a huge scandal by a certain actor, but the problem is that this kind of non-ethical relationship is definitely challenging the bottom line of mainstream society and the public. At present, society in the United States has not yet reached the stage of insensitivity to be hit by many scandals exposed on the Internet.
Although it was only a gossip media report, Morgan Freeman was instantly pushed to the cusp of the storm.
The veteran black movie star was not a fool, and he immediately stood up and refuted. The next day many media not only published the remarks he refuted. Morgan Freeman's lawyer also announced that he would prosecute newspapers and newspapers that published scandals for defamation. magazine.
However, Warner dared to instigate a counterattack in this way, and must be prepared and obtained tangible evidence.
For some things, exploding all the materials at once may not have the most sensational effect. The effect of continuous bombing is often more obvious.
Just after Morgan Freeman’s lawyer announced that in less than an hour, the entertainment section of the Yahoo website threw out even more shocking news. Morgan Freeman’s former nanny proved that the two did indeed have incest...
In the evening, the entertainment channel of Fox TV simply broadcasted a surveillance video from last year, in which Morgan Freeman and Adina Hines could be clearly seen walking into the hotel room, and nearly two Come out after hours.
It’s enough when things get here. Even Morgan Freeman can see that even if he comes up with a thousand explanations of what is done in the room, he can’t resist the burning gossip soul of the public and the endurance limit of the mainstream media. Although the media has no bottom line. However, they have always taken it as their responsibility to supervise the country and society not to make mistakes.
In just one night, the media that previously bombed Keanu Reeves all changed to track and report on the Morgan Freeman scandal. Even the media that first stabbed the Keeves scandal also used the most capable. Paparazzi and reporters were sent to Morgan Freeman's door.
Among them, the Fox Television Entertainment Channel once again offered a big killer and drove the live TV car to Morgan Freeman's house.
"Why did the media related to the Big Six companies react so quickly?"
In the living room at home, Tina Fei accompanied Duke to watch the live broadcast of Fox TV’s entertainment channel and asked, "They are still so enthusiastic, especially Sony Columbia, are they not working with DreamWorks?"
"DreamWorks wants to grow bigger and become a new giant, but bigger will touch the interests of existing forces."
Standing in different positions, and seeing different things, Duke has already planned to focus on training Tina Fei. At this time, he simply made some clear explanations, "The rise of any new power will inevitably break the old ones. Balance. In the past few decades, Hollywood has had only dead giants, but no new powers."
"To a certain extent, the competition between the six major companies is an internal contradiction between the traditional forces." He continued, "and DreamWorks joins in, it is an external contradiction. As long as the time is right, the traditional forces will inevitably unite. Together, suppress DreamWorks, like this time."
To put it bluntly, Morgan Freeman is just an excuse and victim of the Big Six companies' suppression of DreamWorks.
Tina Fei soon wanted to understand the connection, but tentatively asked, "What if our Duke's studio becomes bigger in the future?"
"Either it was acquired by Warner Bros. or other companies." Duke did not hesitate and gave the answer directly, "Either it is facing the similar situation of DreamWorks or the bankrupt Carlock Pictures and Orion Pictures."
"So, are we going to have in-depth cooperation with Warner?" Tina Fei nodded clearly.
"Tina, you've been in this circle for a while, you should be able to see it." Duke's eyes returned to the TV, and countless paparazzi and reporters were harassing the Morgan Freeman workers who came out to throw garbage. , "Some problems can't be solved by selling movies!"
Just like DreamWorks this time, "World Clash" can be said to be very suitable for summer popcorn, but when Warner threw a lead, other forces poured in to suppress them, the Morgan Freeman scandal was indeed It cannot cause a fatal blow to the film, but it can affect the viewing options of a considerable number of viewers and bring a certain box office impact.
DreamWorks can be said to have a certain degree of strength at this stage, but when faced with the encirclement and suppression of major traditional forces relying on Time Warner, News Corporation, Viacom, Sony Entertainment and other large groups, there is no power to fight back. Morgan? Freeman is destined to be entangled in scandals for several years, and "Clash of Heaven and Earth" is also destined to be affected by his important actor.
From the experience of DreamWorks, "World Clash" and Morgan Freeman in this short day, Duke can also infer that if his ambitious and unpredictable delusions only rely on excellent movies and certain funds, The Duke's studio is completely enlarged, and what kind of suppression it will face in the future. In fact, it is not something that the film can solve if it wants to become the top power in Hollywood.
In the following two days, the mainstream media behind the six major film companies also joined the ranks of critics and hype about the Morgan Freeman scandal. This veteran black movie star became a national red star at a faster rate than before. People, Warner Bros. and other companies have also done some work behind the scenes, doing everything possible to suppress "Clash between Heaven and Earth."
Suppressing DreamWorks can be described as Hollywood-style political correctness. (To be continued...)
