As soon as the sun climbed over the horizon, Matthew walked into Disney Studios, and the crew won't be shooting today, mainly to gather the main cast and crew for a meetup before filming.

Due to the influence of the internal power struggle at Walt Disney, the preparation of the two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has been slower than the original plan. So far, in addition to the cast of the first part that has been confirmed to return, including Dai Many new roles, including Vy-Jones and the priestess, have yet to be confirmed.

Then there's the sheer number of extras, and the two sequels will use more than a thousand extras.

When Matthew entered the Disney studio, the biggest feeling was that there were many people. Several studios near the gate of the studio were crowded with extras, and there were hundreds of people waiting in line for interviews.

With the experience of "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl", Matthew knows that it is not easy for an extra to get a pirate role, and his appearance must be distinctive. If a person of his appearance goes to be an extra, Eighty percent of them fail the interview.

For example, in this filming, the crew put forward very strange requirements for those who recruited "pirates": between 18 and 50 years old, either very thin, or simply skinny, and the teeth should go in and out. It couldn't be more perfect, the more aggressive the better, and the long hair and beard...

If you want to grow up like him, you don't even have to come for an interview, because it's impossible to pass.

Matthew didn't go to the studio, but looked at it from a distance, and walked towards an office building near the gate of Disney Studios. The meeting was held in the large conference room in the building.

In addition, the director's office and the casting director's office are also in this small building.

Entering the small building, Matthew deliberately went to the casting director's office and the director Gore Verbinski's office to have a look. Seeing that no one was there, he had to go to the conference room.

He has always remembered what Helen Herman said, and within the scope of his ability, Matthew will also help Helen Herman appropriately.

Besides, because of the difference in gender and play style, Eva Green will not form a competitive relationship with him.

Walking through the long corridor, Matthew pushed the door into the conference room and found that someone had come earlier than him.

"Hi, Keira." Matthew saw Keira Knightley turned his head and walked over directly, greeting casually as he walked, "It's so early."

Keira Knightley smiled at Matthew, "You're early too."

Matthew pointed to Keira Knightley's hair and asked curiously, "Last time I was in a hurry at the manor, I didn't have time to ask, why did you cut your hair short?"

At the last engagement ceremony, he found out that Keira Knightley's long brown and blond hair had been cut into short pieces, which was completely inconsistent with Elizabeth Swan's setting.

Keira-Knightley touched her short hair and said, "I took a film a while ago and needed to keep my hair short, so I cut it off." She thought about it, and then said, "I asked the crew for advice. Opinion, they have no objection, and now the extension technology is so good, it will not affect Elizabeth Swan."

Matthew pulled up a chair, sat next to Keira Knightley, and said, "This hairstyle, combined with your angular facial contour, is really handsome."

Keira Knightley rolled her eyes, "Are you praising me, or are you laughing at me?"

"Of course I'm complimenting you." Matthew said seriously, "You look beautiful when you have long hair, but when you cut your hair short, you look heroic, and you're a complete mess."

"Not as good as Charlize Theron." Keira Knightley said suddenly.

Matthew shrugged, "My fiancee..."

"Forget it, Matthew." Keira Knightley interrupted him directly, "Do you think I can't tell you're acting?"

Matthew smiled without denying it.

Keira Knightley said again, "Sometimes, I really admire you. Last time we were in a fake relationship, this time you are fake engagement with Charlize Theron, are you going to find someone fake marriage next time? what?"

"There will be no next time." There is no one else here, Matthew said directly, "If there is another time, the effect will not be so good."

Helen Herman told him long ago that such a hype method can no longer be used in a short period of time, and he has already stepped into the front line with one foot. With the efforts of the brokerage company and Bella Anderson, the public Fan groups are also being built, and there will be very few places to use this hype again in the future.

"What are you afraid of?" Keira Knightley bit her lip and said, "You're not taking the idol route, and you don't have to worry about fans going crazy."

Matthew still shook his head, "Even if we use it again, we will have to wait seven or eight years." He has always been worried about fans' problems, "For a sequel like "Pirates of the Caribbean", there is no need to do any special tricks in publicity. ."

Keira Knightley nodded, and she glanced at Matthew again. Although this guy has a good appearance, he has never gone the way of a youth idol.

Not limited to the type of youth idol, it is a kind of luck for any actor.

Matthew then changed the subject. This is the United States, not the other side of the Pacific Ocean. Celebrity love is very little disturbed by fans. Except for some typical youth idol stars, few fans will be shocked by the star's relationship or have other too strong a reaction.

Of course, even in America, a relatively open society, there are extreme fans, such as the one who killed John Lennon and the one who killed Reagan for Jodie Foster.

But in this era, similar fans are very rare, and the most ardent fans are still starring in spring idol stars. Even in today's Hollywood, once the romance of a youth idol star is made public, it is inevitable that some fans will be lost.

In the past few years, Matthew has worked closely with Disney Pictures, and Walt Disney has always been known for making youth idol stars. He has also seen some related situations, combined with the fact that he has seen a large number of traffic stars when he was on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. The hype has its own understanding of these.

For example, in Hollywood, there is a saying about youth idols - Disney's Mickey Mouse, will never take off his headgear in front of people.

To a certain extent, youth idol stars, especially youth idols in several countries on the other side of Taiping, fall in love is a move that is easily criticized by the outside world, does not conform to professional norms, and even digs holes for themselves.

From the perspective of practitioners in the circle, youth idols are different from actors or singers. What they provide is not content production value or skill experience value, and the hard skills of youth idols are often lacking.

However, even if the youth idols are relatively lacking in skills, it does not prevent them from making fans willing to pay.

Why are youth idols so popular? Looking back at his experience after a few years in the business, Matthew feels that idols have shaped an ideal love object in the minds of fans, or a sexually conscious object of satisfaction. Even for some serious fans, paying attention to and consuming idols is It is the most mature solution to physiological problems at the moment.

In other words, youth idols are entertainment industry practitioners who can stimulate the sexual arousal of fans, leave appropriate space for obscenity and vent channels, and profit from it.

As for what is the space for obscenity and the channel for catharsis? I believe this question is not difficult to understand.

When Matthew lived on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, he was just a movie watcher and an audience who liked to watch entertainment gossip. He had no actual contact with the relevant industry, and he didn't know much about the youth idols in several countries there. Just what he saw For Disney's youth idols, due to the lack of mature works and excellent skills, the commodity value of idols was originally difficult to measure concretely.

However, it is not difficult to find within the industry that if idols have an image crisis, such as underage drinking and drug use, or messing with men and women, it will often arouse fans' rapid rebound and even ruin their stardom.

Then, there will be two changes, one is to sink completely, and the other is to use this transformation to break away from the category of youth idols.

The specific commodity value of youth idols can also be quantified in this way—maintaining a stable and effective character image~www.readwn.com~ Hollywood is relatively better, and the social environment in which youth idols live is relatively loose.

In the countries on the other side of Taiping, perhaps due to the influence of social culture or history, youth idols must be open, pure, unblemished, or even perfect.

They cannot be privately owned by a specific person. This is a serious damage to the product, and in some cases it almost deprives the use value of the product. Female fans will feel that they are It is the third party, which can easily lead to a subconscious sense of immorality.

Male fans are even simpler, and can be summed up in one sentence - "Don't use the mouth you have kissed others to say you love me".

What's even more terrifying is that for those fans who have spent money, time and a lot of energy to support and swipe tickets for their idols, when they find out that their idols not only did not use their own money to develop their stardom as they imagined, they also sold albums and peripherals. When money is used to please other people of the opposite sex, the breakdown of trust is self-evident.

According to Matthew's guess, in several countries over there, in the youth idol industry, the prohibition of love may be an unwritten rule or unspoken rule. Whether it is for the idol itself or for the operator, this system is to maintain its The foundation of survival and development is that there is a clear difference between youth idols and actors or singers. They themselves obtain survival by selling part of their control over pornography, and their public image will affect the sales of goods.

If a youth idol takes this step, maybe there will be greater development in the future.

Perhaps the youth idols in the future will also break these taboos.

"Matthew..." Keira Knightley suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Are we still friends?")!!
