Ace Hollywood

I discussed private jets with Mark. In Hollywood, buying a private jet is not a particularly extravagant act. The six-seater, Mach 0.8, sj30 with a range of 2,500 kilometers costs only a few million dollars. Among the expenses of top stars, That's no more expensive than a luxury car. Moreover, the share of private airports in the United States is also very high, and the elite class owns various types of private jets.

However, as Daniel said, private jets are no more low-key than civil aviation. Apart from safety and convenience, they are of little help in hiding their whereabouts.

Mark and Daniel reported on the promotion during this time.

It's amazing how smooth it is, Mark said with a smile on his face. In fact, he has been very busy recently, but fortunately, he is also very young and has not yet formed a family. His family is also in Seattle, so he can't often Meet. But as long as you are busy, you will not feel uncomfortable. Now Mark is in such a state. Seeing the rapid development of f2f every day, he is in a very good mood.

The number of users has exceeded 500,000, and it is growing rapidly every day. Now most of our campus promotion activities have stopped.

This is also expected, high school students are still relatively closed, college students are not like this at all, most of their high school friends are distributed in different universities, in order to allow friends to communicate with themselves on f2f, they will take the initiative to form gangs and let them Apply for their own account, so in addition to the difficulty in starting the situation at the beginning, their focus now has returned to operations and online promotion.

According to the current plan, we believe that before the Oscars, the number of users will exceed 1.5 million.

Daniel nodded.

Trevor made the connection, f2f spent 1 million US dollars this year to become one of the many sponsors of the Oscars. This year, the Oscars set up their own homepage on f2f, and will broadcast the process of the Oscars award ceremony and exclusive photos on the homepage. This point, even mb Was compared. For the first time, an official Oscar ceremony will be broadcast live on social media – a decision that was made after close consultation between f2f and Academy President Franka Pearson, which was also endorsed by the Academy. Owning the right to broadcast TV, it is reasonable to say that the live broadcast of online graphics and video clips is not within this category. But considering the Oscars and the close partnership, Pearson still managed to win approval, which is more reasonable at this point. Of course, this is also directly related to the fact that the cable network has not yet felt the threat from social media.

Presumably in a few years, they won't be so generous, but it's the same. At that time, 1 million won’t be able to buy the right to broadcast on the Internet, and Oscar will certainly not be so scruples. After all, Oscar’s broadcast is a big piece of fat. It’s not Oscar who is asking, but Oscar.

A few days ago, the Oscar nomination list was announced. Daniel was shortlisted for Best Actor in the Oscar for his role as Captain Jack in Pirates of the Caribbean, although he can be said to be the second best actor. It is extremely difficult to get the second place, but it is relatively easy to be shortlisted.

After all, as long as an Oscar-winner's film comes out of the acting line, the standard is recognized as being on the Oscar level, and few people will question it.

The Return of the King won 4 Golden Globes at the Golden Globe Awards and led the Oscars with 11 nominations in a blink of an eye. The Lord of the Rings will be the biggest winner of this year's Oscars. The 11 awards including best film and best director have indeed covered almost all the awards that it can be shortlisted. If it is not for the shortcomings in the performance of the actors, otherwise none of the four performance awards will be shortlisted.

before. Many people also expected this. Although everyone rationally thinks it is unlikely, they still speculate whether it is possible for Oscar to let Daniel be shortlisted for best supporting actor-now it seems that the academy has not gone crazy. If they really let Daniel be shortlisted for supporting actor, it is estimated that it will become an Oscar. A joke in history.

In terms of best actor, Daniel himself was not shortlisted for Pirate. Sean Penn, who had a grudge against Daniel, was shortlisted for Mystic River, and Jude Law, who replaced Daniel in Miramax's Cold Mountain, also had a share. Apart from the two, Ben Kingsley and Bill Murray They were also shortlisted for Homeland of Dust and Fog and Lost in Translation.

In terms of box office, the other finalists can't compare to The Return of the King, but Sean Penn won a best actor at the Golden Globe Awards, and his opponent is the strongest, which is amazing. Oscar winner Russell Crowe, fellow actor Oscar winner Daniel, plus heartthrobs Tom Cruise and Ben Kingsley—also Oscar winners, even Cruise, the weakest among them, has three Oscars and three Golden Globes Award for strongman. Sean Penn was able to win Best Actor at the Foreign Press Association, and he must have worked hard in the future.

In fact, with Daniel's friendship with Theo Gingema, the current president of the Foreign Press Association, it is not impossible for Daniel to make a move, but he actually did not do it for many reasons. He just won the Golden Globe and Oscar's him, although he is in the limelight, but not talking about the difficulty, but talking about the effort, it's not worth it. With Daniel's price today, winning another Golden Globe won't let the producer add a dime to him. As for the Oscars, it's more difficult.

It's been ten years since Tom Hanks' joint pile, and there is no second person in this ten years. Daniel doesn't think he can match Lao Tang in this aspect now.

Taking it slow won't do him any harm.

In addition, there is also a very important point that he will not attend the Golden Globes or the Oscars. Under this premise, it will be more difficult for the other party to give him the award.

After Daniel's absence from the Golden Globe Awards, whether he will attend the Oscars has become another recent hot topic.

So in the past two months, although Daniel has not made a head start once, in fact, there is still no shortage of news centered on him in the media.

Oscar's spokesperson can only say that during the communication, Pearson even contacted here in person, hoping that the two sides can be in unison when it comes to announcing the news-of course, this is after Daniel stated that he will not be present.

So far, no word has been given.

The media made hundreds of phone calls to Trivor and Cusa, some of which were hung up, while others responded vaguely and did not say anything clearly.

Even so, when the media reported, they used descriptions like Daniel is hesitating... Daniel is not sure yet... to attract the audience's attention.

In fact, not only the major media and academies, but also people around Daniel are also teasing him.

Mark and Javier are two of the best.

After f2f accidentally won the social media broadcast rights of the Oscars, Javier of mb suddenly became enlightened, and immediately called Daniel, hoping that he could host an Oscar report feature of mb. Because of his attendance, if he can live broadcast on mb, he will definitely attract a lot of attention, so that the attention that f2f has stolen can return to a little bit.

In Javier's mouth, this is what he told Daniel: f2f has won the live broadcast rights, and mb is also the industry under Daniel. Even if a small part belongs to Google, Daniel can't be too biased.

Apparently, Mark didn't think so.

F2f is still in the promotion stage, how can it compare with mb. Mark's persistence is not unreasonable. At present, f2f circles in various universities, middle schools, and companies are gradually established, and the voices calling for them to cancel the barriers are also growing. Getting bigger and bigger is also f2f's established strategy. Mark hopes to use the broadcast of the Oscars as an opportunity to fully relax the early restrictions.

At this time, Daniel should stand up and support f2f.

For him, the question now is not whether he wants to make his mark on f2f, but whether he wants to participate in this matter.

He has just left Hollywood for two months, but apart from the fact that he has no new public activities, in the eyes of the general public, he is basically the same as before. Don't think about retreating from the limelight, and you can't achieve the goal of alleviating the aesthetic fatigue of movie audiences from the previous two years. After all, The Bourne 2 will be released again in July.

Other stars want to hang up in the newspaper every day, only you are worried that you won't be able to cool down. This time, you have to get ahead. This is your company. If the effect is good this time, you can get 1.5 million before the Oscars. It will reach 3 million in a month, and f2f will basically be able to officially carry out regular operations.”

Indeed, Mark was right, but Daniel actually had no room for consideration.

With a sigh, it was a default.

Only then did Mark talk to him about something else, When we were promoting at Harvard, we also saw a webpage developed by their students, where the photos of two people were hung on it, and others could like the prettier one. Almost Blowing up Harvard's server helped us to some extent, realizing students' enthusiasm for online social interaction, and the other party let go a little earlier.

Daniel's eyes lit up, and that Harvard student was obviously Mark Zuckerberg.

Have you met him?

Mark actually met him on purpose, I have the same name as me, both named Mark, just in the second grade. He also said that he wanted to build a website similar to classmate records, which is what you said when you first described f2f Almost, of course I was too surprised. If we hadn’t been one step ahead, he might have developed f2f. However, Zuckerberg is very good at this field, and some previous achievements have also attracted attention, and Microsoft also invited him to join the company , but he didn't agree.

Frowning, What do you think, let him join f2f?

Mark was taken aback, He rejected even Microsoft, I'm afraid he won't be willing to join f2f, right? I didn't invite him...

As he said that, Mark himself hesitated. When Zuckerberg talked about f2f with him, he was really excited. Maybe he is really willing to take up this job. It would be a pity to miss a technical genius.

In this way, you send him an offer, be sincere, and see if he is interested. (To be continued.)
