"It's just a second-line actor, what to pretend there."

"No one cares about your departure, no one even knows about Brian O'Connor, okay?"

"Please don't add drama by yourself, leave as soon as you leave, what's the matter with posting a video to find your presence?"

"I finally left. I think that movie series can only be watched without you."

"A little bit of a fuss is made from Hollywood."

"It's hype again. Knowing that you had an accident, the next one."

"Isn't it dead yet? Why do you behave like life and death?"

This is always the case in the Internet age of the 21st century. The fuzzy faces hidden behind computers and mobile phones have brought negative and dark emotions to the extreme, and attacked them one by one, distorted and hideously, seeming to take all of themselves. His pain and hatred are superimposed on the Internet, and then viciously speculating about everything, only in this way can he rescue himself from the disaster, but turn the world into a gunpowder keg.

Even in the face of Paul Walker, who had just escaped from a car accident not long ago, all kinds of negative remarks were still added to him. It seems that all the grievances are waiting for Paul to really die like this-but even if It really happened, and they wouldn't care at all. Because the online world hurts them, it really doesn't need any cost.

But as the classic line in the "Seven Deadly Sins" said, "Hemingway once said that this world is beautiful and worth fighting for. I only believe in the second half."

The Internet age is not too bad to be hopeless. When you see the negative side, you must also see the positive side.

After Paul officially announced his decision in a video, a group of friends headed by Lan Li reposted the video one after another, expressing support with practical actions; and Lan Li’s tweet clearly stated his position:

It has nothing to do with Paul's fame, and it has nothing to do with the success of "speed and excitement". For him, Paul Walker is a very, very important friend. After experiencing a major life transition from an accident, he supports all Paul's decisions and sincerely looks forward to meeting Paul again.

This is the really meaningful part, which is true for life, and it is true for friendship.

These supportive voices also spread through the network platform, and with the powerful influence and appeal of Lan Li, the overall situation was reversed.

Because of the actual support of many friends, Paul’s "Farewell Statement" received a lot of support. Amidst the negative voices of cursing and contempt, Alan Dejanis, Oprah Winfrey, and Jie -Talk show hosts active on social network platforms such as Renault expressed their best wishes, which really brought the mainstream online speech back to the right track, permeated with a warm and moving atmosphere.

Choosing to say goodbye, Paul is most worried about hurting the crew and loyal fans who really like the series. But now, all worries and fears can be put down temporarily. This will be a good farewell. What's more, this is by no means a farewell.

Amidst the hustle and bustle of heated discussions, a small voice came out:

"What about Universal Pictures?"

What is Universal Pictures' attitude toward Paul's decision to leave?

Although, after Paul’s accident, Universal Pictures has always maintained a proactive attitude; but now some people still remember that when Diesel and Paul, Diesel and Dawn had internal conflicts, Universal Pictures Diesel was always on the side of Diesel, and even Diesel and Paul had an unhappy relationship because of the Renly incident. Then, this time Paul took the initiative to leave the crew, what role did Universal Pictures play? Are they fanning the flames behind their backs?

In fact, Paul took the initiative to release a video explaining the ins and outs. The most important part of the reason is to clarify the misunderstanding-he chose to leave the crew. It was definitely not a conspiracy by Universal Pictures, but he left voluntarily.

Although there has indeed been a lot of unhappiness between Paul and Universal Pictures in the past two years, this still will not affect the friendship between Paul and the crew, and he does not want his decision to put the crew behind.

For Paul, his love and support for the "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion" series has never changed. He also sincerely hopes that the audience can focus on the seventh part and bid farewell to Brian O'Connor. , And continue to support the "speed and excitement/emotion" series-everyone knows that even if Paul leaves, this super profitable series will not stop, they still need to look forward after all.

The bottom line is that the memories of the past are good, and it is easy to gather and disperse. Paul would rather choose to remember those good times than turn around and leave full of resentment. The personal grievances between him and Diesel should not affect the other members of the crew, no matter what, Paul still hopes that the audience can continue to pay attention to the "speed and excitement/emotion" series.

But Hollywood is a place of right and wrong. A little speculation can turn into a conspiracy, and negative news can always easily breed here. The flawed Universal Pictures industry in the past two years has naturally not been able to escape the attack. Even if Paul repeatedly clarified it, it still could not be completely calm.

Before the negative comments spread further, Universal Pictures also issued an official announcement.

The content of the announcement itself is not much new. It is nothing more than emphasizing that they are extremely sorry for Paul's decision to leave. The crew is still very much looking forward to Paul being able to continue to appear in the eighth part-they still will not give up their intention to persuade Paul, and keep it at any time. Waiting for Paul's return with an open attitude, but if Paul sincerely decides to turn around, they will also send their most sincere blessings.

In the final analysis, Universal Pictures still emphasized its innocence and expressed its own position. They repeatedly persuaded Paul but still failed to make Paul change his mind. They will not give up their efforts in the future, but the decision is entirely in the hands of Paul. It is not them. Things that can be changed.

At the very least, Universal Pictures still has a good posture, but compared to Paul's sincere feelings, Universal Pictures' announcement seems quite satisfactory. It can't be said to be bad, but it doesn't have much new ideas. From the perspective of crisis public relations, Universal Pictures still maintains its own reservations and stance.

But no matter what, Universal Pictures still expressed its official position. This has also led to another speculation discussion: After Paul left, did the "speed and excitement/love" crew become the dominant Van Diesel family? So what impact will this have on the prospects of the series?

First, the sixth part of the Blue Li farewell series, and now the eighth part of the Paul’s farewell series...Of course, these two departures have their own special factors, and all the responsibilities cannot be shifted to the crew or Diesel. The external factors are only auxiliary. , Internal cause is the core, this is an objective fact, it is meaningless to accuse any one unilaterally; but again, no one can deny that these two partings are more or less indirectly connected with Diesel, then, Is Diesel the cancer of the crew?

The layman looks at the excitement, while the insider looks at the doorway.

Regardless of speculation, the people who eat melons randomly organize all the clues in an irregular manner, and then brainstorm a big drama in the struggle for power within the crew; but the industry insiders can follow the vine to capture a relatively clear idea, even if Paul His departure was a purely independent decision. Diesel's dominance in the crew was also a predictable result. Now, the "Speed ​​and Excitement/Affection" series has finally become Diesel's wish and will soon become his own series.

But is it really that simple?

...

At this time, Diesel was a little depressed.

Of course, it was still anger at the beginning, but after the anger broke out, thoughts gradually settled, doubts and difficulties began to breed, and it was puzzled-anger could not solve the problem, but calm did not help much, which made Diesel was caught in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat. He was both frustrated and depressed, and finally turned into depression.

Diesel An was sitting on the black sofa in the office, lost in thought above the surface, but the small movements of constantly shaking his feet inadvertently revealed his inner anxiety.

He knows that his irritability and impulsiveness will not help. When the power struggle reaches a certain level, all emotions will become useless. Not to mention Wall Street's multi-billion-dollar transactions, just Hollywood VI. The top projects of big film companies can change the rules without making a temper.

Last year's incident in the Universal Pictures office was the most important lesson of Diesel's career: He finally understood the limits of his vision, and that there is a higher level of world above the power he possesses.

Although he can't really pry into that level of sword and sword shadow ~www.novelhall.com~ and can't really understand that level of strategizing, his knowledge structure and personal experience doomed his vision and viewpoints to be unable to reach this level; but this still does not affect He has self-knowledge: there are some things that he can control, and some things, he had better step aside, otherwise there is no place to bury him.

Temper can still explode, but it depends on the occasion.

It's like at this time, losing your temper doesn't help at all, so Diesel needs to calm down by himself. Although calming down doesn't help much, at least he won't let him lose the initiative.

"Fan?" Facing such a quiet Diesel, Fisher Morgan was a little uncomfortable. In fact, he even hoped that Diesel could jump like a thunder, because such simple and thick lines are better to deal with. Now that Diesel has calmed down, it also means that Diesel is smarter. He wants to easily control Diesel and become his own cash cow, which makes it more difficult.

The relationship between the agent and the actors is of course a cooperative relationship. Are there other possibilities?

Diesel raised his head, pondered for a moment, and finally said, "Why? Can you tell me why?"
