Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

Chapter 230 "Titanic" (1)

"Roland!"

"Ohhhhhhh~~~ Roland! Roland is here! Roland is here!"

From the moment he stepped out of the car door, there was only light left in Roland's world.

The ocean-like flashing light wrapped it ruthlessly. Facing the strong light that was enough to blind people, he who was used to all this showed a formulaic smile. Calmly, he showed the acquaintance of the people in the circle to the fullest, and when he simply smiled, waved and nodded at the supporting fans, the female fans who came here for him made their hearts beat faster, their breaths became short of breath, There were few people, and even star eyes appeared.

"Ohmygod! Heisveryhandsome! No...Heisdrop-deadgorgeous!"

"Wow! Helook like a million dollars!"

Just as the female fans who saw the real Roland for the first time cheered excitedly and expressed their emotions with high-decibel words, all kinds of questions rushed out like a flood.

"Roland, are you really dating Kate?"

"When did you meet?"

"Are all the photos released by the media true?"

Hearing this, Roland, who waved his hand, didn't answer. Instead, he came to the other side of the car, opened the door, and stretched out his hand.

Following his movements, the voice of screaming and questioning suddenly decreased. Almost everyone opened their eyes brightly, trying to see the people in the car clearly. When they were expecting and eager to know the answer, Kate, who got out of the car with a smile, also smiled. Instead of saying hello to the supporting fans first, he tiptoed and pecked Roland on the cheek lightly.

The 'sudden' decision made the support fans' eyes widen, and when they opened their mouths slightly, held their breath, and wanted to spend enough time digesting the huge amount of information in front of them, or forcibly suppressing the excitement in their hearts, and Roland, who was as 'surprised' as they were, lowered his head decisively after a second of surprise, grabbed the red lips that were trying to escape, and kissed lightly.

The two took practical actions and answered the questions fans are most concerned about...

"Wooooooow!"

"My God! My God! My God! This scene is so beautiful!"

"God! I feel like I'm suffocating!"

After witnessing the behavior of Roland and Kate throwing sugar on the spot, the little girls gathered outside the isolation zone were so excited that they almost cried—

Someone covered her cheek with both hands, as if she was too timid to look at it, but the bright gap between the fingers made her view unobstructed;

Someone covered their mouth and nose, expressing surprise at their boldness, but their wide eyes betrayed their mood at the moment, a desire to hope that something happened to them, that was rushing;

In addition, most of the people at the scene were holding group photos they didn't know where they got. They put the photos and markers through the isolation zone, expecting Roland and Kate to sign the photos they had prepared at the same time .

It’s the same as all fan support activities at the premiere. Although the fans who came to support the show today were not paid by Fox, the acting skills of these guys are even more superb than those hired workers!

Why?

Because these guys are all Cole Needham and the others, selected using IMDb's background data!

IMDb undertook the task of delivering tickets to movie fans, and the reason why it undertook this task was not only the ability to eliminate factors that were not the target group, but also the fact that it wanted to screen the target group.

To describe it with words that do not belong to this era, that is big data.

Under their screening, 70% of those who can come to the scene with tickets to support are women, and those who can get close to Roland on the edge of the red carpet, 10% of CP fans, only in the past year , a large number of messages on IMDb, saying that they are lucky enough to get this opportunity because of the CP accounts of Roland and Kate...

Because of this, when Roland and Kate interacted intimately on the red carpet, these girls who already had fantasies experienced the excitement of their dreams becoming reality, and when those lucky ones got their autographs, the feeling The excitement overflowing from his body was about to overturn the Fox Century City premiere scene!

"Ahh! I got Roland and Kate's autographs!"

"I must post this photo to the Yahoo community! Post it to the IMDb discussion group! Hahaha! Those who didn't win the lottery will definitely envy me! Someone will definitely make an offer! But I will Not for sale!"

"Oh my god! There is a Bitch with a camera? Roland is holding her camera to take a photo with them? Oh! This Bitch is still smiling so happily? Security! Security! Didn't you say that you are not allowed to bring photographic equipment? What's the matter? matter? I want an explanation!"

When Roland and Kate moved slowly on the red carpet, randomly selected lucky ones to fulfill their little wishes, the madness that followed along the way caused headaches for the staff maintaining the order on the scene.

After all, compared with the hired sailors, real fans don't know what restraint is.

And precisely because of the truth, that kind of madness also made the guests present extremely envious...

"Is this the advantage of being handsome? These female fans are so crazy..." Harrison Ford, who came to join us, looked at the figure on the red carpet with envy. Although he was carrying two explosive series, But his fans are all men!

"No way, this era doesn't belong to us anymore. Being handsome means being able to harvest the market." Robert De Niro smiled with his hands in his pockets, "Like Charles (Keanu Reeves' nickname), like Riley Oh, like Bibbitt (Brad Pitt), like Tom (Tom Cruise), now the audience just like these good-looking young guys..."

"Even Will Smith's appearance is very in line with the public's aesthetics."

"But these guys, it's impossible to catch up with Roland..." While Robert De Niro was muttering, Jack Nicholson, wearing big sunglasses, said with emotion: "These guys need to please the announcement party, they need to please." When the media needs to please film critics and audiences, and hope that these groups can accept a better version of themselves, Roland is already entertaining the public."

"Now Roland is using the power of the media to select the audience that suits him, and the audience that suits him will provide positive feedback to his movie. In this situation where both parties are the best, as long as the work is not bad ..."

"...then what he can gain is only success."

What exactly is Fox's publicity routine, and how can people in the circle not see it?

Let Roland's fans buy the first week's box office, and then, the North American Theater Alliance will inevitably increase the film schedule, and passers-by who are attracted by the actual box office will also take steps to enter the theater.

But it is precisely because they can see, they can tell where the behind-the-scenes people are coming from, so they feel that Roland, who has been acting harmless to humans and animals all the time, is so terrifying!

The media that control the American media industry are all cheering for his movie?

This is something movie stars never dare to think about!

You must know that the media always puts position first and profits second.

The parties supported by each family are different. If you want to unite them through profits, it is simply a dream.

But Roland has done it now, and the real reason he did it, on the surface, is because of a joint interest, but in fact, who doesn't know that what really makes him support is that he has been doing things for the Jewish boss?

It doesn't matter if it doesn't meet the interests of those media groups. As long as there is no conflict with the interests of the media groups, Roland only needs to meet the interests of the bosses who have the right to make the final decision!

As for why the commander-in-chief can easily mobilize resources and make the movie his fig leaf?

This is certainly related to the unwillingness of those Wall Street capitalists to awaken leeks, but in fact, it also has a lot to do with Roland himself, because the elephant party, which is opposed to the donkey party, is on the list of big money owners behind it. There is Microsoft.

Now it looks like the guy with the highest voice in the party, that is, the son of the 41st commander who was defeated by Zizton and failed to be re-elected. This guy has been planning for the next general election.

And their family's campaign funds have always been Bill Gates' father's share.

To put it bluntly, it is in the interests of the majority of people to let Roland, who is both right and left and does his best to help without causing trouble, enjoy the blessing.

Under the promotion of traditional media and the screening of Internet information gathering, these guys who have not seen the finished film so far, but know the inside information believe that as long as the quality of the film is not bad, the red carpet of the hot premiere will be It will definitely not be an accident, and if the result of the film exceeds the expectations of Roland's crazy fans, then the current madness—

will conquer the world!

With such emotion, when the invited guests entered and took their seats, everyone's face was actually full of relief.

Unlike before, they participated in the premiere for the sake of face, but they were worried about the quality of the film and could not boast. Now they have no pressure. Roland Allen debuted for eight years, participated in eight films, and the cumulative total box office is as high as 47. 800 million, with an average of 590 million per movie, and now, his core fans are cheering. Under such circumstances, if he still rushes to the street, it will be hell!

Since they won't hit the streets, they don't have to worry, they will get slapped in the face for their nonsense bragging!

In this way, when the 20th Century Fox logo was fleeting, the stress-free guests leaned on their seats, while those lucky female fans first glanced at the first row of seats, that is, Roland The place where Kate and Kate were sitting before, when Celine Dion's ethereal voice sounded, they thought 'Oh, not bad', and then turned their eyes to the screen.

But unfortunately, soon, the guests and fans found out that they were wrong—

At the beginning of the movie, there is a plot of seabed exploration. Two submarines are driving in the deep sea. After a while, a shipwreck corroded by seawater also appears. While the submarine is carefully exploring, the camera suddenly turns and REC The recording interface was presented in front of everyone, and the deep voice opened the prologue of the story.

"Every time I watch her emerge from the darkness like a ghost ship, I am amazed..."

“…At 2:30 am on April 15, 1912, she bid farewell to the world, sank slowly, and finally slept here forever, the glory is gone, only the wreckage remains…”

“…the sixth dive, we are on the deck of the Titanic again…”

“…2.5 miles below water, 3,821 meters, with a water pressure of 3.5 tons per square inch, if these nine-inch-thick windows were crushed, we’d see God in an instant…”

The opening of the documentary style made the eyes of the public shine, and they applauded loudly...

Well, to say that it's eye-catching, that's bullshit.

In fact, except for Roland and the truck driver, the other guys were all stunned.

The name of this movie is "Titanic"! Not "Salvage the Titanic"!

What did you do with a sunken ship in the first place?

Although the picture of the underwater adventure is indeed dazzling, compared with the "Future Water World" two years ago, the technical picture shown in front of you can be called crushing, but the problem is, the seabed, shipwreck, exploration...remains, relics , ruins... These things are added together, coupled with cold light, this special code is simply the rhythm of a horror movie?

Then counting the love mentioned in the announcement, is this special code a replica of "The Love Between Humans and Ghosts"?

hiss...

Those who felt wrong gasped.

And when the portrait of Ruth played by Kate was dug up by the salvage team, it was stuck in everyone's mouth, unable to spit it out or swallow it—the most gripping first ten minutes of the movie , just come up with a portrait of the heroine?

Are you playing with snakes? Or play with snakes? Or play with snakes?

"Is this a romance movie? Isn't the rhythm a bit wrong?"

"Why is a love movie played for more than ten minutes, but neither the hero nor the heroine appear?"

“A sea star is depicted in the first ten minutes of the film? What? Are we watching Raiders of the Lost Ark?”

The invited guests were a little confused.

Although they already knew that the whole movie lasted more than three hours, no one thought that James Cameron added to the movie in this way-if he portrayed a bunch of supporting characters in a long-winded way, let alone three hours, Even if it's a 30-hour movie, they can edit it casually!

However, when the guests in the circle were wondering if James Cameron had made a digression in the filming, the fans sitting on the high place were excited, not because the portrait discovered by the salvage team was too delicate, It's that the fans who got the autographs of Roland and Kate have already made up their minds about the big drama after watching the ten-minute brief plot...

"Oh my god, my god, my god...is this movie so romantic?"

"In the beginning, the timeline was set in modern times, depicting the salvage team and the wreckage of the Titanic, and then the young salvage team members played by Roland must have played, and had a great friendship with Ruth on the Titanic! "

"I think Roland must be playing a member of the salvage team. After seeing the portrait, he began to fall into a bizarre dream. In the dream, he was a member of the Titanic, and then he was with a noble girl named Ruth. Son, talked about a love affair."

"What? Do you think so too? I think so too! And I think that Roland is a poor boy in his dream. It is impossible for him and Ruth to be together, so I want to draw a picture for Ruth. Zhang Hua kept it by his side as a souvenir, but when he wanted to say goodbye to Ruth, the Titanic suddenly hit an iceberg, and then..."

"Then according to the setting of the protagonist in Cameron's movie who must die, the guy played by Roland died."

"But Ruth survived!"

"Right, right! There should be a part of it. The guy played by Roland knew he couldn't survive, so he tricked Ruth to wait for him, hoping that she would survive, and the rescued Ruth has been waiting for him, until now. "

"And when the poor boy died in the dream, Roland, who fell asleep looking at the portrait, also woke up."

"Then, as long as he sleeps, he keeps having this dream."

"The dream that should have been sweet troubled him deeply like a nightmare, and then one day, he suddenly felt that if he had such a dream, could it be that God was hinting to himself that the girl in the dream was not dead? So he went to find Lu Silk…"

"And when he found Ruth, the old Ruth also came to the end of her life."

"When the two met, the member of the salvage team played by Roland discovered that the poor boy in the dream was himself in his previous life, and Ruth, who had been waiting for him all his life, was finally here..."

"See you again after eighty-five years."

"That's right! Then the guy played by Roland personally sent away Ruth who had been waiting for him for eighty-five years!"

"Eighty-five years ago, Ruth lost her lover, and eighty-five years later, they fell apart again!"

"What a touching story! It's perfect!"

It's a good thing these imaginative female fans didn't sit with Roland, otherwise he would have jumped up from his seat after hearing what they said about "Titanic"—you guys are so clever, Does your mother know?

When big names in the industry felt that the movie might be off topic, these female fans still had such confidence in themselves?

Wow!

Sure enough, the fan economy is the foundation for the survival of stars from all walks of life!

As for 'I don't need support'?

It was nothing more than being roasted on the fire and trying to get away.

As long as you are in the circle, there is no noble person who can leave fans, only spicy chicken who can't attract fans.

In fact, before "Titanic" won the Oscar and set a box office record in film history, the old lady's narrative rhythm like binding feet has always been the target of criticism from professionals. In , a group of experts asked the truck driver to cut this shit-like modern plot.

Get on the boat directly, Ruth and Jack fall in love, and then the ship sinks. The time is perfectly controlled at about 120 minutes!

But thanks to the truck driver’s refusal, otherwise, a generation of masterpieces might die prematurely.

However, judging from the current situation...

The so-called successful experience is not worth mentioning in front of Shuai.

I think there is something wrong with your filming?

Get out of here, okay?

As long as the viewers who are willing to pay think that my filming is okay, that’s enough!

However, if you think about it carefully, how come the plots made up by these female fans are so similar to "Mythology"?

If you add a setting similar to immortality and directly move out the vampire, then this brain-filled version of "Titanic" may be directly promoted to the highest-grossing fantasy movie?

Anyway, the selling point is love...

Of course, Roland didn't know the plot that these female fans imagined, but just after they read the beginning, they felt that they had already guessed the ending, and they were looking forward to the sweet love that spanned two lives. With the appearance of the elderly Ruth, the dream ship has gradually come into people's sight...

"Hey... did we guess wrong? It took twenty minutes to lure Ruth, is it just to pave the way for memories?"

"However, the impact of memories does not seem to be more touching than meeting again after eighty-five years after two lifetimes?"

"Is it just an ordinary love story? If so, how can it cost 200 million?"

Fans who found out that they had made a mistake in their brains were a little regretful, and even more curious.

And the whispered discussion also made the male friend on the side curl his lips.

As 30% of the men who were drawn, they are actually Roland's diehard fans.

It's just that they like movies like "Terminator 2", "Jurassic Park", and "Spider-Man".

Compared with the female fans holding Roland and Kate beside them, they hope that Roland can sign the Spider-Man suit they bought. As for love? Isn't this stuff made?

However, within a few seconds of thinking that women are too naive, they felt that they had been slapped, because when Ruth got out of the car, her goose-like face was covered with bright eyes and flames. After the red lips are embellished...

A sour smell called falling in love diffused from their bodies...

"She's gorgeous!"

Roland's male fans couldn't help but speak out.
