Chapter 492 Double-edged sword

August in Los Angeles has passed the hottest season of the year, but the afternoon sun is still a bit vicious. Under the bright sun, the whistling wind suddenly sounded over the lawn on the side of the Future World Manor. The strong wind brought by the rotation of the propeller pressed the green grass tightly on the ground.

The housekeeper Nikia and a strong maid stood on the lawn, covering each with his hands to prevent the flying grass and dust from falling into his eyes.

A white-coated commercial helicopter descended from the sky and landed steadily on the apron marked with the "h" symbol.

The helicopter cabin door opened, and a middle-aged man carrying a suitcase came down and ran to Nikia almost at the speed of sprinting.

"Hello." The middle-aged man greeted him urgently.

Despite the strong winds caused by the propeller, Nikia kept the British housekeeper calm and said, "Leave it to me."

This was not the first time that the middle-aged man came here, so he immediately handed out the suitcase, and the strong maid took it.

"Send it now," Nikia ordered, "Mr. Anderson and his two guests are in the second hall."

The strong maid walked quickly towards the side door of the future world as the wind.

The middle-aged man handed over the bill at this time. Nikia glanced at the number. It was very scary to put a single bottle of 1,850 beer elsewhere, but she was already used to it in this manor.

Nikia confirmed that the amount was not wrong and immediately signed the name on the bill.

The middle-aged man took back his bill and ran back to the helicopter anxiously. The white painted plane quickly took off and left Beverly Hills.

The strong maid carries the box into the second side hall. Ronan sees the trait suitcase in her hand and says to Tom Cruise and Will Smith: "The wine is coming."

"What wine?" Tom Cruise was a little curious: "It actually needs to be airlifted by helicopter."

Will Smith was also very curious: "Ronan, it's mysterious. I won't show you a mercy if I can't drink well."

Ronan opened the suitcase, and the constant temperature device in the suitcase was wrapped with two bottles of ordinary beer...

"This wine wants to keep its original flavor, and it requires a very high storage environment." Luo Nan said while taking out a bottle: "It should not only be refrigerated, but also stored in the ice water from the Antarctic."

Seeing Ronan ready to start wine, Will Smith brought three cups and placed them on the bar in front of Ronan.

Ronan took the bottle opener and said, "If the wine leaves the storage area for half an hour, it will lose its original taste, so it must be airlifted as quickly as possible."

Tom Cruise waited a little anxiously and urged: "Hurry up and open the bar."

The bottle cap opened and air conditioning appeared faintly. Ronan poured some wine into each of the three cups. The beer was not very foamy and looked a light golden cold feeling.

Will Smith took the first sip, a particularly refreshing taste spread throughout his body instantly from his mouth.

Ronan and Tom Cruise clinked glasses and took a sip each. The beer tasted lighter and not richer. The biggest feature is its special frosty.

After a glass of wine fell into his stomach, Will Smith said, "It's cooler than other beers I've ever drunk."

Tom Cruise nodded in agreement and said, "It's like walking around the glacier in a single dress."

After pouring the wine, Ronan raised his glass to the two of them and said, "Continue." Another ice beer fell to his stomach. He asked, "This wine hasn't disappointed you, right?"

Will Smith said with a smile: "The price of $1,850 per bottle is not disappointing."

Tom Cruise opened the second bottle of beer and filled three cups again. Ronan said: "There are only two bottles of this wine in Los Angeles. I asked Nikia to buy it for me from an auction at Christie's. I don't know if it's the best beer, but it's definitely the most expensive beer at the moment."

The three of them drank and chatted, and the second bottle of beer was soon found.

Tom Cruise looked at the light golden wine in the cup and said, "The brewing ingredients should be rare, right?"

"The water used for brewing comes from a thousand-year-old piece of ice from the Antarctic glacier." Ronan briefly explained: "This piece of ice comes from a giant iceberg, which was originally collected by the Marine Conservation Organization and brought back to Australia for scientific investigation. Later, it was bought by the brewery and brewed this batch of beer, and only dozens of bottles were circulated."

Tom Cruise has participated in several environmental protection activities and nodded and said: "The protection of Antarctic glaciers is much stricter now than before. It is not easy to return from Antarctic with huge ice cubes again."

Will Smith clinked glasses with Ronan and Tom Cruise, saying, "You have to drink all the good wine."

However, in just ten minutes, the three of them drank more than $2,000 worth of beer. After drinking all the wine, the topic of the three people also moved from the wine to other places.

"I haven't said thank you to you two yet." Ronan said with a smile: "You have registered users at Netflix and posted sharing information, which has helped me a lot."

Tom Cruise smiled: "You're welcome to me? It's just a trivial matter."

Will Smith casually said, "Don't you invite us to drink?"

Ronan said: "A lot of Netflix's registered users recently are your fans."

In fact, several celebrities have posted on Netflix one after another, which has played a significant role in pulling. No one can ignore the current influence of Johnny Depp, Will Smith and Tom Cruise.

"Actually, this is good for us," said Tom Cruise. "I have received a lot of feedback from fans, and they feel very good about this daily direct communication."

The stars who have been living in Hollywood for many years, except for a few people with weird personalities, most of them have their own opinions when looking at things. Will Smith continued: "Your Netflix has millions of users. I heard from the agent that the registered users will soon be tens of millions, which is equivalent to building a platform for us to speak out directly."

Tom Cruise agrees very much: "In the past, if we wanted to make a public voice, we needed to open up media relations and go through media channels. We would not talk about the large amount of public relations expenses spent. Sometimes the media did not sell us face and deliberately misinterpret our meaning."

He was a little sad when he remembered what happened some time ago: "What happened after the Oscars is the best example. But the platform you provided by Ronan gives us a chance to speak out directly. As long as there are enough users who can see the sounds we make directly, it is worth more than anything else."

Ronan said seriously: "It is true. There is such a platform that at critical moments, you can publicly publish your voice at the fastest speed."

Will Smith laughed and said deliberately: "So, Ronan, you have to attract as many users as possible. When your Netflix has tens of millions of users, we can bypass the traditional media that are difficult to talk to, and some things can be announced directly through Netflix's platform."

"I also want Netflix to have tens of millions of users." Ronan sighed: "At the end of this year, it would be great to have tens of millions of registered users."

Tom Cruise thought he owed Ronan a huge favor and had always been very concerned about Ronan's affairs and asked, "Is there anything I can help?"

Will Smith also made fun of it: "And I."

Ronan thought for a while and said, "I am asking someone to plan Netflix's new promotional and marketing plan. The plan is still in the planning stage. After the plan comes out, if there is a place that needs your help, I will not be polite to you."

He thought of several plans, but soon denied them. In the end, he planned to hand over professional matters to professionals.

Speaking of which, Ronan really has no experience in how to promote social media, and his memory is more about the purpose of social media.

In fact, the prosperity of social media is a good thing for Hollywood stars. They have a platform to directly face fans and promote themselves.

The prosperity of social media has created countless traffic stars. Even though many of them are stars, it cannot be denied that they are so popular among a certain group.

However, the widespread use of social media is to make double-edged swords that can benefit and harm oneself. If a celebrity is a little turbulent, he will be scattered by the omnipresent Internet experts, which will lead to the collapse of his personality and fall on a cliff.

For Hollywood, the double-edged knife has a much smaller effect on its side. As long as most celebrities do not have major principled mistakes such as discrimination, no matter how much black material is exposed, the actual impact will not be too great.

At least it will not disappear.

If my cousin and others are placed in the east, they will be finished long ago.

Even Mel Gibson's mistakes have returned to Hollywood a few years later and returned to the mainstream sight.

Others, such as the more black material, the more popular the stars become, and Hollywood is not uncommon.

At this party at Future World Manor, Ronan not only invited Will Smith and Tom Cruise, but also Jerever Carsonberg.

"What a pity." Will Smith sighed: "Jeriff cannot enjoy such a limited edition of wine."

Tom Cruise asked curiously: "Jerry Ferre has been absent from our party several times."

"He's too busy." Ronan knows more because Embassy Film and Television has a collaboration with DreamWorks Animation Studio: "Now DreamWorks Animation Studio is producing three animation feature films with a budget of up to $75 million at the same time. Jerever is under great pressure and lives directly in the company for five days a week."

DreamWorks Animation Studios invests less in a single film, and the production of each animated feature film is 30 to 40 million US dollars less than Pixar's average.

Of course, the visual difference between the animation feature films produced by the two is very obvious.
