Chapter 161 Fans
"Cool! It's neat! It's righteous!"
"Absolutely, this must be Roland Allen!"
"Oh MyGod! Roland is actually filming in New York? Why hasn't the media reported these things before?"
In a McDonald's store in New York, a group of middle school students aged 14, 15, and 16 are holding freshly baked hamburgers and looking at the TV set used to broadcast news in surprise. It caused the eyes of the people around, but after hearing the content of the news broadcast, the guys who lined up to order food also turned their eyes to the screen.
When they saw the guy on the TV who was hanging on the wire and pretending to be swinging in the air, but was actually crying and screaming, a burst of funny emotions rushed into his heart instantly, and many people saw the guy in ordinary clothes The guy slammed into the sponge cushion, and then slowly slid down like a dead body. The laughter filled the Golden Arch restaurant.
"Oh! Is this filming "Spiderman"?" A young man dressed casually with his peaked cap turned upside down said in surprise.
"For Peter Parker, isn't New York his back garden? Why is the movie so miserable?" Another businessman in a suit, tie, and briefcase also smiled, "Oh, I see! This should be the picture of Peter when he just mutated, he should be testing his abilities."
"Even if it's a test of ability, shouldn't Roland hit him so hard?"
The young woman who heard the businessman analyze the words pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose. She obviously hadn't read the comics of "Spider-Man" when she asked this question, but it didn't matter, because when she asked the question, she kept staring at him. Looking at the screen, "Damn! I haven't seen you for more than a year. Roland has grown up! I didn't expect him to cut off his bangs, so much energy!"
"That's right, that's right!" Another young lady in her twenties also nodded frantically, as if she had discovered a confidant, and said pleasantly: "I was worried before that he who only played a cameo in "Forrest Gump" would be disabled. I didn't expect him to be even more handsome with brown hair!"
That's right, unless Roland is a lifetime member of Taobao.com, how could there be things that wouldn't make headlines without the Internet?
New York, this is the largest city in the world! Shooting scenes in this place in broad daylight, and flying around in the sky like a fool, if no one can find out like this, what is the difference from Wang Yuanjin who can't hit anyone?
You are Spider-Man, dear! You are not Tarzan the Ape!
The media are not fools, it’s fine if the crew didn’t make it public before, but now you’re all flying around, and they haven’t reported it, then I’m sorry for the channels in my hands! And with the appearance of the video, Roland fans who had been silent for a long time became as excited as little piggies waiting to be fed. Although the Internet is still not popular, the number of Internet users in America is only a pitiful 25 million, but it doesn't matter. ! Guys who grew up with Roland have classmates! Guys who watched Roland grow up, have colleagues!
When the news spread, they also dug up the boot information that had been suppressed due to the disaster. With the videos broadcast by major media, Roland once again occupied the campus after a year and a half.
"Wow! This looks so much better than Batman!"
"My God! My God! Are Roland and the others really swinging in the city?"
"Who is the first film to hit? It won't be Jin Bin, right? The villain in Spider-Man, he is the weakest and the best one to shoot! And the other villains, I guess they can't do it? Or the effect is very poor. ?”
"How could it be possible to win gold? Didn't Sony make it public before? Robert De Niro played Dr. Lizard, hey, hey, don't worry! George Lucas undertook the post-production special effects of this movie!"
"George Lucas?"
"Yes! It is the director of "Star Wars"! "Jurassic Park" is also made by him!"
"What? If so, then "Spider-Man" is really exciting!"
Compared with these cute children who care about movies, Roland's sister fans are much more innocent. Villains, special effects, plots... are not what they care about. Compared with the movie itself, what they are interested in is Roland This person, after seeing his favorite cabbage growing gratifyingly, it should have been a stupid wall-hitting plot, in their eyes, it is all stupid and cute, of course, while staring at the video and flipping back and forth , They also began to pick up the heroine of the film.
This is actually a very normal thing. Since the hype of women chasing men last time, Roland has not had any scandals with any women so far. Although his age is placed there, it is not appropriate to expose a relationship, but Who doesn't know how chaotic the circle of Hollywood is? The guy who likes him expects Roland to be a good boy, while the voyeuristic desire on the other side makes them want to break the casserole and ask the end. This kind of contradictory psychology is actually human instinct, and as they dig, the people in New York Fans even started to look at the map to find the location, and found the shooting site in New York.
Not only that, some guys proudly posted the photos on the Internet.
And when the filming location of the film crew was exposed on the Internet, those fans who had Internet access at home and lived nearby gathered here excitedly. When Roland learned that the door of the temporary studio had been blocked by his fans, He still doesn't know what happened, his mind is full of meow meow question marks, he also finds it strange, and wandering around the door with curiosity, Xiao Lizi goes out with a smile on his face, and comes back stunned .
The wall of people made up of many girls made his heart tremble, and the most unacceptable thing for him was——
"Do you know? I just went out and wandered around, and I heard a fan of yours say that I drove from Chicago to New York! It's 730 miles! She drove for more than ten hours The car is just to see you! Wow..."
Little Lizi's words were extremely sour.
Although I already know that Roland is very popular, but this kind of long-distance raid is just to see you...
Phew! What a fate to meet thousands of miles away! Isn't this special code a gift from thousands of miles?
This thing is too magical, right?
What's wrong with me, Leonardo DiCaprio?
You need good looks, you need height, you need talent, why don’t you have as many fans as Roland Allen?
Of course, Roland didn't care how he tasted.
When the critics were boycotting "Home Alone 2", he relied on these fans to forcibly make a comeback. Now that he knows that he is filming in New York, isn't it a matter of course for someone to come to visit the set?
Taylor fans can still rob banks for Taylor! What's wrong with these guys coming to see themselves?
As a result, Roland, who smelled the sour smell, told Xiao Li to stay here, and went out to buy him some oranges, so that he could continue to be sour.
Although he could cruelly refuse the kindness of those guys outside the door, but considering that these guys are his parents, he decided to say hello to the truck driver and go out to meet him.
As he expected, as soon as he appeared, the fans who were looking forward to him screamed loudly. They looked around, good guy, these fans are wearing their own clothes!
With so many guys supporting him, let alone buying oranges for Xiao Lizi, even building a train station for him is no problem!
After waving his hand, saying hello, and thanking the guys who came spontaneously, Roland also agreed to their request for a group photo, and when he asked them why they came to him during non-holidays, the reasons these guys gave him made him Very unexpected.
"Because it's so boring!" A girl in her twenties replied.
"What?" Roland suspected that his ears had misheard.
However, the explanations of these people really made him feel that these guys are quite boring.
Ever since all kinds of bad things broke out one after another, the entertainment industry has been in a bleak state.
Michael Jackson's concert was closed. Because of the rainstorm and flood, the filming of many American dramas has been postponed. Not only that, after the box office hit the street last year, in early 1995, the most eye-catching movie, That's two.
Unfortunately, for Roland fans, these two movies are almost nonexistent!
"Extreme Panic" tells the story after the outbreak of an infectious disease. Few of the guys who like Roland like this kind of disaster movie, and they are even less interested in pure action movies like "Bad Boys".
No way, who made Will Smith less handsome than Roland!
In fact, the box office of these two films is also good and bad. "Extreme Panic", which was released on March 10, could not make back its money at the box office. In terms of an investment of nineteen million yuan.
As long as this kind of low-cost commercial film has good visual effects, it will be easy to make a profit, but if you want to hit 500 million, you are dreaming. His North American box office can't even reach 70 million. This figure is comparable to that of Roland. Compared with the sensations that often arouse, that is simply the younger brother among younger brothers, "So... you came here after seeing my filming news on the Internet?"
Roland asked while signing autographs for the guys in line.
"Yeah, Yeah, Yeah." The fans who came forward orderly nodded like chickens pecking rice.
"Then where did you hear about my filming?" Roland asked again.
"In the movie database forum! Someone posted your set photos on it! Your name is ranked first in the cast list, we can see it by clicking in!"
"..." The almost identical answer made Roland's head full of black lines.
It turns out that I was stewing myself in an iron pot.
Compared to the sour little plum, Roland actually cared about how these guys found themselves.
They only filmed for two days in Diaoweiana, and then they moved to other places.
Fans can find this, then they are Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows!
These guys have been fighting monsters and upgrading for 20 years, and they can help the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security answer Senator Kennedy's question!
But if I used IMDb...
Should I praise Cole-Nedham for their good development, or should I complain that they didn't delete the post in time?
However, thinking about the importance of fairness, justice and openness in the early stage of the development of the website platform, Roland stopped digging into the horns of this issue. After taking a family portrait with the fans who came, he wanted to return to the set to film. He was asked by everyone. Asked the last question, "Roland, will you contribute the first screen kiss in this movie?"
"No." Roland answered cleanly.
Don't look at him with a pleasant face now, but to be honest, no one likes fans blocking the studio entrance to interfere with the filming of the crew.
"Ah..." The guys who heard this remark were a little disappointed, but those who thought Reese was not good-looking secretly suppressed their laughter, and even couldn't wait to know the answer, "Why?"
"Because after "Spider-Man", I took a love movie." Roland waved his hand and said with a smile: "So, you don't need to stare at me now, what you want to watch will wait until "Spider-Man" is released. I will shoot..."
"Go back, you can post whatever you like in the movie database forum, if I say it, I won't deny it..."
Before the words fell, Roland re-entered the set.
Following his disappearance, the fans who were hit by the heavy news were stunned for a few seconds, and then burst into cheers!
Because what Roland said is the question most people want to know the answer to!
And why did Roland reveal this information?
Isn't it because I don't want fans to block the entrance of the studio?
He can satisfy a group of people today, what if another group comes tomorrow?
With the New York scene still at least three weeks away, hiding is impossible.
In that case, spread out what they care about the most.
Roland is going to make a romance movie?
This news can keep those guys who want to come to the set to play autumn wind at home!
Anyway, if you come to the set, you won’t see the intimate scene between Roland and Reese, so it’s better to wait and put the motivation of pursuit in the next movie!
As for talking now, how should the next movie be made?
My God! The big ship bought land, dug a pit, built a ship, and filmed. Even if Roland explained in advance, these fans couldn't catch up!
And how will fans discuss his romance movies on the Internet?
This has nothing to do with Roland himself! But it has a lot to do with the database he is eyeing!
Anyway, IMDb will eventually become his home forum!
Digest your own flow!
It's not cheap for others!
Why! He is such a thrifty little witty housekeeper!
...
Just when Roland was surrounded by fans because of the first public shooting, David Olson, who was far away in San Francisco, California, was making the final processing of Roland's needs in his office.
"The current valuation is 4 million, and the valuation after financing is 10 million, so in the angel round, we decided to invest 2 million to obtain 20% of the company's shares, and we also had to agree that if the founder leaves , we have the right to ask the company to repurchase our equity, do you...do you have any questions?"
Jerry Yang and David Filo, who had already discussed the details, heard this, shook their heads with a smile, and said, "No."
"Okay, let's sign it..." David pushed the contract over in front of the lawyers of both parties.
Note: ①Taylor’s illegitimate meal is very crazy. Sneaking into her house and sending her emails are trivial things. The worst thing is to rob the bank and then spend the money at Taylor’s house. Because star chasing interferes with life too much, Taylor is at home Two walls were built next to it, one of which was two meters long, but the back felt that it was not enough, so another four-meter wall was built. ② "Bad Boys" is indeed Will Smith's really popular movie, but after "Jedi Boys", his salary is only 5 million, which was exposed when he was filming "Independence Day", after filming "Independence Day" He is the A-list. The normal star salary is only between 10 million and 20 million. A movie can earn tens of millions, but it can't be done without him. The producer has to give it. Of course, many guys without background are It's "you spend your money but you don't spend your life". The producers who master the media have too many tricks. How can there be a saint in this world?
