Vol 2 Chapter 883: The most dangerous place in the world

Hearing Scarlett's words, Duke couldn't help taking the invitation letter from her, just glanced at it, and then returned it. In the past few years, he has received many similar invitations almost every year. …The vertex novel,
Looking at Hollywood, under the cover of fame and wealth, there are always many unnoticeable existences.
This kind of invitation is one of them.
The content inside is actually very simple. It is to invite Duke to a masked adult party. This is very common in Hollywood, especially at the end of the summer and awards season. Various adult parties with the help of celebrations can be said to be endless.
As early as more than ten years ago, Duke was eyed by this kind of club, but he has never participated in it.
When he was young, he did have a chaotic life, but he had never participated in this kind of adult party, and the chaos of this kind of party was far beyond ordinary people's imagination, and the scene would even exceed some films produced in the San Fernando Valley.
Duke has never participated, but he knows a lot of inside information, which is simple to say, because Leonardo DiCaprio is a frequent visitor to such parties.
This party organized by the adult club snctm is aimed at Hollywood celebrities and celebrities. The admission ticket is as high as 30,000 pounds, and the object of invitation is not only Leonardo DiCaprio, but also many male stars. Numerous female stars.
There are actually no fewer female stars than male stars.
Not only that, according to Leonardo, both male and female celebrities in love and Hollywood couples in open marriages buy tickets.
"It's a shame you didn't go."
Seeing Scarlett accompany her new girlfriend to the garden, Leonardo sat next to Duke and told him about the party that he had just participated in a few days ago. "A lot of famous actresses attended this time, although Covered, but I recognized them at a glance."
Duke just shook his head. "I have to consider Scarlett's feelings."
Although Scarlett always said that monogamy is against human nature, Duke knows it very well, that is to say.
Just like the relationship he had with Ivanka Trump, he did not intend to do messy things behind his girlfriend.
He is not a noble person, there is even a distance of the entire Pacific Ocean, but he still has consciousness in this regard.
Subsequently. Leonardo DiCaprio talked about some of the things that happened at the party. If you find a suitable description, it's probably like the party in "Eye Opener" directed by Stanley Kubrick. general.
"I met Rachel McAdams at the party. The mole under her mask is too obvious."
After drinking the coffee in the cup, Leonardo looked enthusiastic, "Also, Lily Collins, this girl who had undergone plastic surgery is so easy to recognize and very open. I saw three men around her with my own eyes. That Kind of scene..."
To Leonardo, Duke was not surprised at all. Just like Leonardo DiCaprio’s nickname, Rachel McAdams and Lily Collins are regulars at such parties. Hollywood is no secret.
Of course, these two people don't care much about their reputation.
After lunch, Duke sent Leonardo DiCaprio away and left Malibu by car. Came to the Warner Building in Burbank.
Time has entered September, and the North American box office of "The Dark Knight Rises" is slowly approaching $600 million. The global box office totaled close to 1.5 billion U.S. dollars. Although affected by a series of events, the film was a big success.
However, Duke came here not for "The Dark Knight Rises", but for "Interview" starring Seth Rogen and James Franco.
After intense preparation and shooting, the film moved to the post-production stage last month. If there is no accident, "Interview" will be able to complete all production work at the beginning of next month, and then it will be released around the end of October.
In any case, "Interview" is a low-cost film, and the traditional off-season in October is most suitable for film release.
Because of the more sensitive subject matter. Warner Bros. has never promoted this film, and the plot and content of the film are strictly prohibited by Duke. Now the film is getting closer and closer to the release time. If you want to get a good box office and cause a certain sensation, you must Think of a way for publicity.
In a Warner Bros. office, there are only three people, Duke, Doug Walter and Jamie Johnson.
"In fact, there is no need to do too much work in the pre-propaganda.
Looking at the two executives of Warner Bros., Duke said unhurriedly, "It's not difficult to cause a sensation."
Doug Walter nodded slowly.
Jamie Johnson on the other side said directly, "As long as we disclose the subject matter and content of the film, many people will spontaneously hype and promote it for us, especially North Korea."
Duke reminded, "You have to weigh the political factors."
"Don't worry, Duke." Doug Walter said nonchalantly, "Do we care about North Korea?"
It is impossible for Hollywood films to enter North Korea through formal channels, and slander and slander of North Korea is an absolute political correctness in North America and the entire Western world.
However, the Duke trio are also very clear that it is difficult to make "Interview" a sensation by relying on this alone, and some means are needed in the follow-up.
Now that the Internet is well developed, hackers cannot be defended against, and it is not difficult for Warner to use these two aspects to make some articles.
At the beginning of October, Warner Bros. released the first trailer of "Interview" on the instant sharing, which caused an uproar across the United States and the world.
"This fall, James Franco and Seth Logan will try to assassinate Jin Sanpang.'You are about to enter the most dangerous place in the world. The people of Jin Sanpang believe every word he says. Not only can he Talk to dolphins and never urinate...'"
After the dialogue, there is a close-up of "Golden Fatty" played by a South Korean actor: wearing a uniform, with one hand on his hips, and a thick cigar in his mouth, full of "local tyrants". The most recognizable is Kim Sanpang’s unique hairstyle—partially divided, combed back, and trimmed short above both ears—in North Korea, this hairstyle is called "ambition."
This short video trailer full of nonsensical colors sparked global Internet craze and became the most sought after video for instant sharing.
As expected, North Korea took the initiative to stand up.
Only two days later, North Korea came forward and issued an official statement stating that this is an act of war. If the US government allows the film to be broadcast, North Korea will take decisive measures.
The statement stated that the "blatant broadcast of a movie trailer of the desecration and assassination of the top leader of North Korea" is an "act of terrorism and war" intended to "subvert North Korea's national system" and "insult North Korea's dignity." ", "Intolerable by the international community."
The statement specifically emphasized that the good life of the North Korean people is closely related to the care of the top leaders.
The permanent representative of North Korea to the United Nations also stated that the US government should ban the distribution of the film "Interview" on the grounds that "the main storyline in the film involves the assassination of Kim San Fat", and he believes that the production and distribution of a film involving the assassination of a current sovereign country is allowed. A leader’s movie is terrorism and an act of war.
Of course, Warner Bros. and the "Interview" crew who had prepared in advance were definitely not so fast, and they stood up to respond.
The screenwriter and starring James Franco replied on Instant Sharing when North Korea protested for the first time,
Generally speaking, people don’t want to kill me for a movie unless they spend $12. I'll finish reading it first."
Seth Logan, who was referred to as a "second-rate director" by North Korea, responded with ease: "North Koreans often do such ridiculous things...just a comedy movie, what threat can it cause?"
The entire Western world has become accustomed to North Korea’s criticisms and
threats
. In everyone’s eyes, the North Korean government has always been
thunder and rain less.
In the past few days, a North Korean state-level news media made comments and criticized the United States. Military action: "The situation is very severe. A nuclear war may break out at any time." "Assault is useless. Only ruthless punishment and an iron fist can affect the United States..."
The whole world also takes these remarks as a joke.
In today’s era of mass Internet carnivals, let alone the Western world that regards North Korea as a country of terrorism, even if it is a neighboring country that has always supported North Korea, North Korea and its government are only used as jokes on the Internet. The emojis derived from Jin Sanpang are even flooded with some of the most popular social networking software in this country.
But North Korea’s protest was completely ignored, and Warner Bros. insisted that the film be released on schedule.
In fact, the trailer also caused some controversy in North America.
In addition to the mpaa grading system, the Hollywood film industry mainly relies on self-discipline for the setting of the plot. However, if the plot of the film contains attacks or innuendoes against real persons or entities, it may be subject to legal proceedings by the other party, and if there are any in the plot Allusions to the current leaders of a certain country, such as assassinations, may be considered to have terrorist tendencies.
Because of this, even though the president of the country dared to "assasrate" in Hollywood movies, usually these "assassed" targets are virtual characters.
Based on this, the surname of the assassinated target in the "Interview" still insisted on arranging the file after being publicly expressed dissatisfaction with the parties, which inevitably makes people feel that it is a "double standard"-North Korea is now a full member of the United Nations , Jin Sanpang is its legal leader, and it is permitted to carry out "innuendo personal attacks" on him, which obviously follows another standard.
In particular, it is difficult for North Korea to provide any box office revenue for Hollywood entertainment films now and in the future. This also makes the implementation of this "double standard" more reasonable: Chaplin was forced to change the title when he was filming "The Great Dictator". MGM’s "Red Dawn" in 1984, the first "villain" was the Soviet Union. After the remake in 2011, it was hurriedly changed to North Korea before it was released. One of the important considerations was not to offend fans in the country concerned by these "trivial things" and affect the box office. , And this worry is almost non-existent in North Korea.
For example, nowadays, who would dare to think that any Hollywood studio would dare to make a joke about the leader on the other side of the ocean by name? (To be continued.)
