Chapter 1,389 [Fast and Furious] Michelle Rodriguez

The spring breeze blows and the flowers bloom, and the buildings are no longer empty when people leave. A few drops of cool rain fell into the curtains, which surprised me that it was already late autumn. --[Excerpts from Autumn Meng Yin]

Destiny is the most difficult thing to grasp. You never know who will become popular next in the entertainment industry, and you don’t know whether you will be able to wait until you have worked hard for many hours in group performances. That opportunity to become famous, even if you don't reach the level of a first-line actor, if you get to the second or third line, and can play a supporting role in a movie, it is still possible to become famous in Hollywood. It is not someone who is Arnold, it is not someone else. They all belong to Stallone, just like Morgan Freeman. Many of his classic roles are supporting roles, and he is praised by the media as the uncrowned king of Hollywood.

Many of Morgan Sr.'s most memorable characters were supporting roles. It is considered one of the golden supporting roles in Hollywood. There are also many people in Hong Kong City, such as Uncle Da, Zhou Xingxing's partner.

As an actor, if you do a good enough supporting role, it will also be very fulfilling. There is only one iron rule in Hollywood, that is, you may not become popular if you persist, but if you don't persist, you will definitely not become popular.

This iron law applies in any country. Even though there are many royal actors in China who rely on big platforms such as the Spring Festival Gala to maintain their fame, there are still many actors such as Guo Degang, Ying Bao, Chun Ge, etc. who did not become popular with the help of the Spring Festival Gala and CCTV.

In Hollywood, the best way to make an actor famous is to go to a big company. As long as a big company is willing to support you, then on a problem like this, unless you are very unlucky, you will not be able to go to the second tier. There is no problem at all. The first clue is to see if there is smoke coming out of your ancestral grave.

Generally speaking, those who are highly praised by big companies must have no problem with their acting skills. If they are not able to achieve first-line success, it is because they are not lucky enough and do not have the luck of Leo. After all, not everyone has the kind of incredible luck like that of Leonardo DiCaprio's Titanic. Among the many extras in Hollywood, they are unknown and work hard for their ideals, but they don’t know where their tomorrow will be and whether they have any hope of success in the future. The Avenue of Stars, in fact, is so far away and long for most group performances, giving people an air of despair.

Those who can't persist will naturally change careers and go home to farm and take care of their children. Those who persist are the kind of people who are determined and want to go further on a path like being an actor.

At this time, on the Avenue of Stars, a young girl walked gently on it, and the bright names started from Joanna Woodward, Disney, Chaplin, Governor Arnold, the superstar Jackson, and even It means that there is also Britney Spears who just left his name.

Blainey is the youngest singer to have a name. By the way, one of Joanna Woodward's masterpieces is "Three Faces of Eve". In it, Jackson is present, but Madonna is not. In addition, Fei Wen is present, but Leonardo DiCaprio has no name, such as Big Mouth Roberts and George Lucas. , Coppola and other celebrities are not on it.

This is not because they are not famous enough, but because they need to apply for the Avenue of Stars, pay a maintenance fee of $25,000, and then agree to attend the on-site star awarding ceremony within five years. Big Mouth Roberts and Sister Na have made it clear that they don’t want their names to be trampled on.

In addition, Chaplin's name was taken down for political reasons. Later, Chaplin's son sued the Avenue of Stars for twelve years, and finally Chaplin's name was reinstalled on the Avenue of Stars. In fact, the management committees of these Avenue of Stars are similar to the sub-district offices in China, such as the MD District Dongcheng Office and Shuangyang Sub-district Office. Maybe they don’t have as much power as the street offices in China.

Therefore, on this Avenue of Stars, some superstars have their names on it, but some do not have them at all. It just depends on whether the celebrity is willing to apply.

But no matter what, this Avenue of Fame is also a spiritual symbol of Hollywood. Most stars, especially early stars, can find their names on it.

This is a kind of spirit in Hollywood. Among Chinese stars, there are only three people who can qualify for this right now, including Anna May Wong, Bruce Lee, and Cheng Long, who was named on the Avenue of Stars just two years ago.

By the way, Anna May Wong was very supportive of the Anti-Japanese War. It was even said that when Soong Meiling went to the United States to seek help, Anna Wong wanted to help support the Anti-Japanese War. However, Miss Song was a representative of the capitalists and represented the capitalist aristocracy at that time. Interests, thinking that Anna May Wong is just a representative of the lower class people, and did not play with Anna Wong at all when giving speeches in Hollywood.

Therefore, Huang Liushuang is also very sorry for this. It can also be seen from this point that it is not unreasonable for Bald Man to be defeated by Wotu and rushed to the treasure island. The bald guys can't unite the broad masses of working people. It's normal to almost drown in a sea of ​​rabbits.

Of course, that's what it is. Michelle Rodriguez was absolutely excited when she walked on the Avenue of Stars. Any name on it is enough for these young supporting actors to look up to. . Michelle even said that she was looking forward to the opportunity that one day she would be able to be famous on the Avenue of Stars.

That is a very honorable thing, at least for an actor. Not being named on the Avenue of Stars does not prove that you are unsuccessful, but being named on the Avenue of Stars definitely proves that you are successful. Applying to be named on the Walk of Fame is managed by the Gower Street Street Office in Hollywood, but no matter what, not everyone can apply. Hollywood has a century-old history, and there are countless stars, even if they are only third-rate or above. Actors, that's also calculated in units of tens of thousands.

Not to mention those third-rate or even extra performers, there are as many as stars.

But there are only more than 2,000 people who are eligible to keep their names, excluding records, directors, and even sports superstars, animation superstars and other stars who are not actors.

Therefore, there are actually not many Hollywood actors who can actually be named on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. At this time, if you are not an industry representative, you have almost no chance of passing the application. The Hollywood Gower Street Office also wants to show face. Although it is said to cost $25,000, it is willing to pay if you don’t have enough reputation. It's also impossible to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Therefore, regarding such a question, as an actor, if Michelle wants to be named on the Avenue of Stars, it is indeed an unattainable dream. Of course, any Hollywood bit actor will have the same dream. Such a dream is an important reason for them to persist in Hollywood.

And even now, Mihir is quite confused about her future. He has not succeeded until now. Is she suitable to stay in Hollywood? How to stay in Hollywood? Should she be an actress or work behind the scenes? It's all a problem that remains in front of Michelle.

Walking on the Avenue of Stars is actually a kind of comfort to yourself. Using a bright name of your predecessor can inspire you to have the courage to survive in Hollywood. Hollywood is not easy. Not any bit player has the courage to stay here for a long time. Those who fail to persevere are doomed losers.

Michelle was walking aimlessly on the Hollywood Walk of Fame alone. Now she is not considered a helper for the lower class in Hollywood. At least she has a little bit of fame. In the past two years, she filmed "Women Punch". 】That also won the Sundance Film Festival award and the Independent Spirit Award.

Although this is an award similar to that given by a township enterprise, at a time like this, the National Board of Review Award is at least an award for a provincial enterprise.

It is an award that has a certain influence in the United States. Therefore, in Hollywood, this Michelle is not famous at all, at least she is much better than those grassroots people who are blindly waiting for a job. Later, Michelle also signed with a company and had her own agent.

But then I played a character like Ryan in the movie "The Haunting".

The results were not really good, so it was considered to be hidden by the company. There may not be many others in Hollywood, but there shouldn't be too many people who want to act and beautiful women who want to act. Therefore, if you cannot seize the opportunity, you will be abandoned by your company. [The Haunting] The movie didn't have any big results, so the company gave up on Michelle. Michelle later terminated her contract with the company.

Anyway, if we don’t have the intention to cooperate in a shameless way, then when it comes to an issue like this, it’s better for everyone to get together and disperse. There is no obstacle from the company. If you want, you can just sign and leave, so now Michelle is considered a freelancer.

Regarding such a problem, Michelle has no intention of finding an agent or signing company for the time being. After all, the last cooperation did not help her career at all. On the contrary, it made her reputation slowly decline. .

A rural enterprise-like award like the Saint-Nice Film Festival is nothing in Hollywood. Even the American Critics Circle Award only allows Michelle to have more choices than ordinary grassroots actors. Therefore, if Michel has no decent works in the past two years, his reputation in Hollywood will naturally decline slowly.

This is a basic rule of Hollywood, and it is also a basic rule of the entertainment industry in all countries. Isn’t it true that if there is a work of the level of the Invincible Golden Body and an eternal classic, then the actor’s reputation will always be It will slowly decline. If it drops to a certain level, then at such a time, there will be no chance to turn around.

Therefore, if an actor wants to maintain a certain degree of fame, he or she must constantly release new works and gain a reputation. Mr. Fan has done a very good job in this regard. Even when Fan didn't have any works of his own, he could actually get his face in the news with all kinds of hype on an issue like this.

This is where Fan Ye is smart. In fact, what is different from more people is that at this time, celebrities want to use any means to promote themselves. Even if there is sometimes negative news, it is not necessarily a bad thing in this matter.

On the contrary, if you make good use of negative news, it is also a way to maintain your reputation. Later, in the entertainment industry, the person who used this method to the extreme was not the famous Mr. Fan, but the unforgettable Sister Feng. Although it is said that Sister Feng's language and behavior may seem a bit out of line to most people.

However, as a grassroots person with no beautiful appearance and no backing, she was able to fight her way through many Internet celebrities. First, Sister Feng did not kill anyone, and secondly, she did not set fire. Anyway, she did things with a clear conscience, and the police did not care. Who do we have the right to despise? Sister Feng, you know, many years ago, Sister Feng was just an ordinary person like us. At least for now, Sister Feng is successful. Although she uses some negative news and exaggerated actions to attract everyone's attention and attention, no matter how you say it, Sister Feng is indeed successful.

Otherwise, there won't be many ways for grassroots, ordinary people to solve the installation problem successfully. Bao Baobao was only able to succeed because he was filming a blind shaft. He only had a chance to succeed. Among the grassroots, apart from Sister Feng and Baobao, a few people can easily succeed.

Even if she is as beautiful as Ying Bao, she can only achieve her current glory after working as a supporting role for more than ten years. The key is, how many people will have the beauty of Yingbao? They are very few and only one in a million. therefore. For ordinary people like Sister Feng who don't have a beautiful appearance, if they want to succeed, negative news will be negative news. Anyway, firstly, they didn't steal, secondly, they didn't rob, thirdly, they didn't oppose the people, and fourthly, they didn't oppose the leaders.

So now, let’s not say that Michelle didn’t know about Sister Feng. Even if she knew about it, she wouldn’t use this method. Michelle actually has a beautiful appearance. From a Western point of view, Michelle Sher Rodriguez is a beauty with the beauty of a young lady. However, Michelle used her sexy appearance to win, which was not the same as my sweetheart’s innocent and cute appearance.

Anyway, even if Michelle is not successful now, she will not use Sister Feng's method to hype herself up. If this is the case, Michelle's reputation will gradually decline. In fact, it is not surprising at all.

There are no decent works and no breaking news on the front page. At this time, Michelle's reputation is naturally declining.

The most important thing for Michelle now is to use her works to prove the value of her existence as an actor. (To be continued)
