279. Chapter 279 Rumors

"An outstanding actor, especially an outstanding actor who is recognized by the public, requires both ability and luck. Just like Sean Tang, today, even though most people already know how he became famous, he still

To be able to have surprising pioneering achievements, in addition to being serious and dedicated, you also have good luck. For example, "The Dance of the Dead" was filmed in the middle of last year, but because it wanted to win the Oscar, it was not released until the end of the year.

It took a lot of effort to screen it and then choose to release it before the awards ceremony.

The same is true for "The Perfect Thief". This movie was completed earlier and was wrapped at the beginning of last year. It was originally planned to be released in October last year, but the producers were obviously frightened by the sudden disaster, so they changed it to this year.

This is obviously the right decision. Production of "The Fast and the Furious" was supposed to start in 2000, but the poor performance of "Fast in 60 Seconds" made Universal hesitate, so it was delayed until last year before official production, and the release time was also changed from last year.

for this year.

In addition, there is "Sniper Phone Booth". This film was shot in only half a month last year, and the post-production was also very simple. It was said that it was originally planned to be released in November last year, but for some reason, Fox canceled the plan.

, also changed to this year.

Therefore, coupled with these and "The Believer" and "White Night" that were originally scheduled to be released this year, Sean was able to achieve a personal feat, releasing 6 movies in 6 consecutive months in which he starred or played an important supporting role!"

This is an exclusive interview written by the independent reporter who originally reported that Sean had released five movies in five months. He not only continued to say a lot of good things about Sean, but also talked about the next movie to be released.

The name was also revealed.

Of course, before that, Fox had already released the trailer for "Phone Booth" and officially admitted that the movie starring Sean would be released at the end of July, and revealed that it is a story that takes place within 90 minutes.

It's like the mode of "24", and it's Sean's one-man show. Director Joe Schumacher also said when asked by reporters that Sean's performance was very exciting, and he conquered everyone by himself.

When this movie was being filmed, a street was deliberately blocked off in Los Angeles. At that time, there was not much response, and the media just reported it casually. But now, because of this news, it has been republished, and many people have continued to analyze and interpret it.

The time was quite lively.

At this time, in order to add fuel to the fire, Fox communicated with Sean through Frederick, hoping to arrange an exclusive interview with him. It happened that the independent reporter Wayne Levitt also contacted him, hoping that he would accept it.

His exclusive interview was really lucky.

Originally, Sean and Frederick were hesitant. Although this matter has been hyped up and is very lively, if it is done too much, it will inevitably give people a deliberate feeling. But if it were replaced by Wayne Levitt,

The situation is different for Mr., he discovered this accidentally at the beginning, it is already a recognized fact, so after Fox broke such news, it is completely normal for him to come to our door for an exclusive interview and reveal more information.

things.

In addition, Sean also wants to have a good relationship with some film critics. Many actors have film critics they are familiar with, and these film critics will be biased to some extent when reviewing their works, just like Oscar's

Like the judges. But most of the film critics who have become famous are very tactful. Even if you get to know them, they may not say good things for you, so it is necessary to find some new film critics just like investing.

of.

Although Mr. Levitt is still a reporter, he has already posted many film reviews on his blog and attracted a lot of fans. Otherwise, the previous reports would not have spread so quickly. In addition, the blog is developing rapidly now. If

If someone supports him, he may not become a well-known film critic. Now Sean only needs to pay for an exclusive interview to win over him, so why not?

Therefore, after some communication with Fox, Levitt's interview was quickly released and reprinted by many media, because in addition to the emergence process of six movies in six months as mentioned above, Sean also personally revealed something in the interview

News: There will be no more July 7 movies, this streak ends with "Phone Booth".

Using their movie to bring Sean's initiative to an end is another reason to impress 20th Century Fox, and this weight still has some weight. The more people pay attention to it, the greater the response his initiative will cause.

The final box office may also be better.

Of course, "Phone Booth" is not Sean's last movie to be released this year. Don't forget, there will be a second installment of "The Lord of the Rings" at the end of the year, but this does not prevent Fox from misleading the public during promotion, and Shaw

En and Frederick were also happy to see this happen.

In fact, the agent had planned it for a long time and asked Fox to mislead. After this movie, everyone thought that Sean would not have any more works. Then, when the second part of "The Lord of the Rings" is released at the end of the year, it will inevitably

It's extremely surprising. Yes, how many actors, leaving aside those minor roles and dispensable supporting roles, can release seven movies a year?

"I was still regretting it last year. If "Perfect Thief" and "Sniper Phone Booth" could be released, then I would have six films last year, but I didn't expect that after the delay, I would have seven films this year." Sean said this with a tone of voice.

It's all emotion, but at the same time there are also some complaints.

"This is indeed an amazing initiative, but... I always feel like... a 'model worker'?" He said in a half-joking tone, and raised his hands in quotation marks. Unfortunately, "model worker" is not

It was in Chinese. Frederick didn't understand it and was too lazy to ask again, so he simply ignored it.

Regardless of this, even if Fox knows about it, it won't care, as long as their propaganda is effective, and in fact it is very effective. At least in the beginning of July, you can always find several articles in various media about "Sniper Phone Booth" and

Sean's reports, even if they were not on the front page, were praised, surprised, and ridiculed.

For example, a reporter wrote: "Releasing six movies in six months is indeed an amazing achievement, but if the last one is messed up, it will be another matter."

However, there are also tabloids that specialize in digging up gossip. For example, the New York Post, which always likes to find fault with Sean, this time just said, "Nothing can compare to the truth."

The tabloids that like to catch rumors are beginning to focus on the facts. Is there anything more ridiculous than this? But in a sense, it also illustrates their caution and... Sean's current influence. Yes, it is still discussed in the traditional media

It's quite satisfactory, but the praise on the Internet is completely overwhelming. Ninety percent of people think that Sean is so cool that he can release movies for six consecutive months. Many of them are because of "Ocean's Eleven" and "The Fast and the Furious"

And the young people who fell in love with him gave him overwhelming support.

This kind of influence is almost on par with many superstars. Although Sean is still far away from being a superstar now, and after this trend subsides, this is undoubtedly a good start, isn't it?

"I'm extremely envious of you, superstar. You get tons of attention no matter what you do." Wahlberg said half-jokingly and half-envy while drinking water after filming "Italian Mission".

"Come on, Mark, don't think this is a pleasure. It would be fine if "Sniper Phone Booth" gets good reviews, but if it encounters Waterloo..." Sean spread his hands and sighed, seemingly unhappy.

This is necessary. After all, he has encountered such things as suddenly becoming famous, receiving countless attention, and then being explicitly or covertly rejected. And Wahlberg has repeatedly beaten and exposed him along the way.

He was sued for swearing again, so becoming famous has been quite difficult. Seeing that Sean has achieved his current career in just two or three years, it is inevitable that he will feel a little unbalanced.

This kind of imbalance generally won't affect it too much, and experienced actors will adjust their mentality. But as time goes by, and weights are constantly added, it will inevitably become unbalanced. At that time, conflicts and antagonisms may occur.

Wahlberg is a nice guy, and he likes Sean very much. Although he is not on the same level as Galen and Sanders - and it is impossible to be - it is still very good to be friends with him.

Therefore, it is necessary to lower your posture appropriately, say something nice, and praise without leaving any trace, such as "You are the best if you are steady and steady", or the words just mentioned.

"Don't worry." Sure enough, Wahlberg laughed loudly and reached out to give him a heavy pat on the shoulder. "Your acting skills are excellent. I believe it will be a good work."

It didn't matter whether he knew whether Sean was doing this deliberately or not, sometimes all that was needed was a gesture, and judging from his subsequent words, he should have been somewhat aware of it.

"Let's talk about your new song, it's called..." Wahlberg changed the subject and thought for a moment, "'bewhatyouwannabe'? I said that right?"

"No, you think it's pretty good? It's not too different from "YouRaiseMeUp"?" Sean asked curiously.

"It's very relaxed, cheerful and very likable. It's definitely not comparable to "YouRaiseMeUp", but for you, it should be pretty good." Wahlberg looked serious.

"Really?" Sean raised his eyebrows, "You want to tell me that you wrote that review in Rolling Stone?"

Wahlberg burst out laughing immediately.

Sean finally released his new song, which was the already prepared "bewhatyouwannabe", a very lively song with an inspirational theme. In fact, he had always been hesitant. It was really difficult to make a decision, but

In May, he had to make the decision to accept a rumor that started circulating in the tabloids.

The content of this rumor is that Sean released the song "You Raise Me Up" with a very strong purpose, which was to use the opportunity of many hurt people in need of comfort after the 9/11 incident to promote himself. In other words, he was
