After the turn of the millennium, the bursting of the Internet bubble slowed down the pace of online media and traditional media that were about to begin to intersect. Although 911 indirectly led to the development of blogging, it only promoted it and was still far from being integrated.

. Therefore, Levitt’s article posted on his blog did not cause much repercussions in traditional media.

However, on the Internet, this review received overwhelming support, with countless fans leaving messages below to express their support.

"Sean's performance is impeccable." This is the average movie fan.

"I really like him so much, I have watched every one of his movies!" This is a die-hard movie fan.

"I have the videos and DVDs of all his movies, and I have seen all of his advertisements! I hope to see him in person! I hope to get his autograph, preferably on my body!" Comparison at this time

Crazy movie fan.

"He looks very interesting. If possible, I would really like to date him." This is a female movie fan.

"I didn't expect that he is from San Francisco. It is a beautiful city. I have always wanted to go there. Maybe I can have a beautiful encounter with him somewhere." This is...well...some male movie fans.

All in all, 90% of the comments were supportive, even if there were some offensive ones, they were quickly deleted. This can be regarded as a return on Sean's original investment, as early as the filming of "Ocean's Eleven"

At that time, he discussed with Frederick and publicist Richard Lathan how to promote himself on the Internet.

"The era when celebrities relied on maintaining a sense of mystery to attract fans has passed. It can be predicted that in the next few years, the more people-friendly they can show, the more favorable they will be from fans. Of course, a certain sense of distance also needs to be maintained. We don't have to

In reality, it is too close to the people, but it can be like this on the Internet. Moreover, gossip tabloids always exist. Instead of letting them smear them, it is better to take the initiative to guide public opinion among fans. In this way, even if there is no problem, as long as it is not very serious,

Fans will be on my side for the first time." This is what Sean said to his agent and publicist at the time.

He racked his brains to remember these things, and as before, they were all a bit fragmented. The above words were organized in his head for a long time before they were sorted out. The rest can only be left to the agent and publicist to figure out. Fortunately.

, both Frederick and Lathan are capable people, and among agents and publicists, it’s not like no one sees the power of the Internet.

Therefore, even if their method is very simple, it is probably to contact some people and ask them to create some topics on the Internet when a new movie is released. Sean did not ask in detail. Anyway, he does not understand this very well, and now

The level of the network is still very different from those experienced in previous lives. But the effect is very good. It was already obvious when five movies were released in five months. It is not surprising that it is like this now.

And Sean also gained something. When he recalled the news, he thought of something that could be used. However, under the current conditions, he didn't know what to do. He could only wait for the opportunity. In any case, he was closer to his job.

to ordinary people.

Even if Levitt's article did not cause too many waves in the traditional media, Sean's reputation is still rising. No one can deny that "Sniper Phone Booth" is a wonderful movie with a unique perspective, even if it has many flaws, and

Sean's performance is also very eye-catching.

Who would have thought that a young man who was just an unknown person more than three years ago has now become a star on the verge of becoming a star. This speed is enough to make many actors who took a long time to become famous envious and jealous. It’s not that they are narrow-minded.

——Although there are certainly cases in which young actors become famous because of a certain movie, the key point is that Sean’s acting skills have been recognized.

Those popular young actors are basically idols. Once people are no longer interested in them, or there are new identical idols to replace them, they will easily fall from the clouds. Moreover, even if they don't have these, or they have survived

In the past, if you wanted to maintain your popularity after being famous for several years, you had to transform, and idol stars were the least likely to transform.

But Sean is different from them. He took a literary and artistic route from the beginning, and later received an Oscar nomination, easily drawing a clear line between himself and his idol. Even after that, he also participated in "Charlie's Angels", "Eleven"

Commercial movies like "Arhat", but the former is just a cameo, and the latter doesn't have many scenes. However, after the release of "The Fast and the Furious", there were rumors that he would develop into an idol, but after the release of "Sniper Phone Booth", he immediately regained control.

"I have to say that luck plays a big part. As some people say, I always meet good scripts and directors who appreciate me. I want to thank them." After the movie was released, Sean immediately

Said this on a talk show.

There is no need to brag at this time. Six movies in six consecutive months, coupled with the good reputation and good box office of "Sniper Phone Booth", and the promotion of Sean's amazing acting experience, the limelight is temporarily gone.

The box office of "The Fast and the Furious" has increased a few points. Therefore, it is necessary to show your modesty at this time to avoid being too popular.

Anyway, the facts have been put there, and they cannot be attacked at will. Moreover, no one has thought now - including Sean - that something will happen a few months later that will make it almost offline at that time.

"Sniper Phone Booth" has once again attracted people's attention.

"Then I came to Europe. The crew was very tolerant in allowing me to leave after one show. If it were delayed, Tony might get angry. I don't want to see him get angry, although I have never seen him get angry."

Sean, who was saying this, was sitting on a chair under the tent, with a towel around his neck and his hair a little wet.

He fell down while filming in the pond and was soaked all over. In order to prevent the cold from hindering the filming, Minghella specifically allowed him to rest for a few minutes.

"I don't think so. I mean Tony never gets angry. Of course, maybe no one has ever made him really angry, so his threshold for anger is very high." Sitting in front of him was a slightly fat man who looked to be in his forties.

The many-year-old man shook his finger and smiled.

"So you made Tony angry without us knowing it, Philip?" Sean asked immediately.

"Hey, Sean, that's a slander." Philip Seymour Hoffman immediately shouted, followed by a burst of low laughter.

After appearing on the talk show, Sean took a rented private plane and came to Europe to report on the crew. As mentioned above, Miramax only agreed to let him report after the release of "Sniper Phone Booth", but did not say

It can still be on the show. However, no one expected that the movie would receive such attention. Even if Fox will not organize the creative team to promote it city by city due to budget reasons, if it does not take advantage of the opportunity now to be in front of the media,

Strengthening Sean's image in front of the public would be a bit of a loss.

So Frederick hurriedly communicated with Miramax. After all, the other party finally made a small concession and agreed to participate in at least one program. Although it was not enough, considering other aspects, it can be used in real life.

Continue to maintain distance, thereby shortening the distance on the Internet - the agent has suggested that Sean consider starting his own blog.

Well, this is really embarrassing. As a reborn person, I have to have others remind me of this.

The price for the crew's reluctance was that after he arrived in Romania, he spent a day getting over the jet lag and immediately threw himself into the filming nervously, because he was involved in all the shots. During the delay, Minghella included this scene, and it was

The shots that required him were almost completed, and only his was left, which was naturally a bit harder, so when he came here, Sean jumped into the pond.

"Hey, Sean, the director said he was ready to continue." Sanders ran over at this time. As an assistant, he naturally went wherever Sean went.

"I know, I'll come." Sean replied feebly. You know, he rested for at most ten minutes.

"Cheer up, Sean, you can do it, just like you did "The Talented Mr. Ripley."" Hoffman shouted from the side.

"Shut up, Phillip, if you dare to be nagging again, next time we play against each other, I will make you NG ten times." Sean said half threatening and half joking.

"No problem, Tony won't blame me anyway." The guy whistled, causing another round of low laughter.

Sean shrugged and was about to walk towards the set, but within two steps he suddenly thought of something and turned around, looking at Hoffman with a hesitant expression: "Philip..."

"What?" Hoffman, who stretched, looked at him strangely, then laughed, "Okay, if you are really worried, just change it to five times, then Tony will believe it."

Sean immediately rolled his eyes, then took a deep breath and pretended to sneer: "I thought about it and changed it to letting you NG twenty times."

"Then we'll see." Hoffman laughed.

Hearing the laughter, Sean walked to the set again and sighed in his heart. He actually wanted to give a warning.

When I worked with Hoffman on "The Talented Mr. Ripley", the two became friends because of the other's casual personality. This time when I came to Europe, he happened to have a minor role in it.

, so I went to visit him immediately. Unexpectedly, when Sean went to Hoffman's room, he pushed it in directly because the door was unlocked, and saw him hurriedly trying to wipe off the powder on the coffee table.

"It's just a little bit of sex, no big deal." When Sean asked, Hoffman replied with twinkling eyes.

To be honest, Sean was surprised. Hoffman had taken drugs. He knew this because the other party did not avoid it when chatting before. However, he also said that he had quit, but now

It seems that he has relapsed again.

But Sean didn't say much. He just gave a few words of advice, and then shut up after Hoffman said he would control it. It's not easy to interfere in this kind of thing. If he talks too much, he might turn against him. After all... Huo

Fuman had given up drugs and then relapsed, so although he wanted to remind him a few more words as a friend, he changed his words when the words came to his mouth.
Chapter completed!
