Chapter 278 Help me

Welcome back to our studio, I am Jon Stewart, bringing you the daily show.

With the familiar music, the camera moved from above to the middle-aged man sitting in the middle suit and tie but with a hint of cynicism.

We just formally discussed President Bush's... sad speech and the exquisite interpretation of FOX News Channel, so let's change the topic now.

The long voice combined with the iconic bad and bad smile made a lot of laughter sound at the scene. Do you still remember who the guest was today?That's right, the great director who is always good at creating miracles, Mr. Adrian Cowell!

He followed him up and blocked his mouth, making a mysterious look at the audience on the table and said: Of course, you know, he is my boss, so... understand, give some face.

Don't worry, Jon, I won't let someone deduct your salary.At this moment, Adrian had already walked out from behind and made it openly in front of him.

Really?Stewart cooperated to make a surprise look.

certainly!Adrian spread his hands, but I was considering whether the paid vacation should be modified.

There was a burst of laughter in the audience, and Stewart's face collapsed.Adrian laughed.

OK, I'm kidding, do you think I'm such a stingy person?He said with a smile.

OK, then let's get back to the topic.Stewart laughed, too, I think everyone knows what happened recently, and there are many people who want to invite you to chat on the show.

So I left it to you, I like you, Jon.Adrian immediately pointed at him and said.

Thank you, I feel very honored.

Stewart immediately pretended to be flattered, stood up and shook hands with him, and then looked at the camera again as he was in front of him: Did you see it?That's the benefit of being close, and of course, I had to keep working on my paid leave for… well….

The expression on his face was first proud and then turned into depression and helplessness. It was very smooth and not at all disagreement, which immediately attracted a burst of laughter.

Well, we all know that since Brokeback Mountain was premiered at the end of last year, there have been many different opinions on this. After it was officially released a few days ago, this contradiction reached its climax.

Stewart said and looked at Adrian, So, how do you view this issue, Ed?

To be frank, I didn’t think too much about seeing Ms. Pru’s novel. To me, this is a story about love.

Adrian made gestures to increase his tone, which was just a love story.

Just a love story?Stewart repeated, then opened his eyes wide, are you sure you didn't see Jack or Ennis as Jesse or Ennis?

Of course not.

Adrian laughed with the audience in the seat, and in fact, if you turn one of the characters into a female and modify some details, you will find that the story is no worse than Romeo and Juliet at all.For example... a man and a woman fell in love on Brokeback Mountain because of work or something else.But for various reasons, such as family, marriage contract, and distance is too far, the two cannot get together, but they love each other deeply. Although they already have their own lives, they finally meet again on Brokeback Mountain and then agree to meet on the mountain every year.This painful and happy life continued until the woman died unfortunately, while the grieving man looked at Brokeback Mountain with her relics, promising that he would always remember and live well.

Wow, it's really touching.Stewart immediately applauded, this is actually what you originally wanted to shoot, right?

Adrian smiled and continued: I know what you want to ask the most, Jon, I also know that many people are concerned. Maybe some people are dissatisfied with comparing this movie with "Romeo and Juliet", but what I want to say is that I do not support homosexuality, don't worry, I don't object either. In fact, support and opposition are both inaccurate words, and I care more about letting things go.If I really want to support anything, I support another thing, that is the power to choose freely!

oh?Stewart rarely did not make a joke, but instead took it on with an exclamation.

This is what we have always insisted on and what we are most proud of. We are free, we can choose to do what we do, and we can choose not to do.

Adrian finally put forward his point of view. No matter who it is, Ennis, Jack, me, or you, they have the right to make the choices they want freely without hurting others, family and society!

Warm applause rang out. As the thing Americans are most proud of, the word freedom resonates quite resonant.

At this time, the time left for the guests in the end of "Daily Show" is not much time. After a few casual conversations, the time for this episode is here.

Thank you for your cooperation, Jon, it's very good.After returning to the backstage with Stewart, Adrian said patting his shoulder.

Before Stewart could speak, a voice penetrated from the side: If it was just that, I could do it, why can't I be on my show?

You're here again, Allen.Adrian laughed as he looked at him, how could you come here?

You chose Jon's Daily Show instead of mine, so of course I have to come and see what he has worth choosing.A woman with short hair came over.

Leave her alone, Ed, she was just jealous.Stewart shouted immediately, and Adrian laughed and spread his hands to the woman: You know the reason, Allen.

OK, I do know the reason, but you should be on my show once anyway, right?Otherwise it would be too unfair, and it would be a joke if it spreads.Hey, know, that guy Jon Stewart will be the hardest thing to invite the Miracle Director on the show right now, pulling him out of his Daily Show, and snatched it from Alan DeGeneres.

The woman kept saying, obviously, this was her true purpose.

Adrian had to raise his hand and wave it: OK, Allen, I promise you that if I have time in the future, I will definitely be on "The Allen Show", I promise.

Then that's it.DeGeneres, who received the promise, showed joy on his face, while Stewart next to him rolled his eyes.

Jon Stewart's "Daily Show" and Alan DeGeneres' "Alan Show" are two well-known talk shows ABC. Although their respective styles are different, they have a large number of fans, especially DeGeneres' "Alan Show". They are known for their spicy and boldness and dare to say anything, so they were once as famous as Oprah Winfrey and Larry King.

Logically speaking, Adrian should have been on "The Allen Show". After all, this is a special talk show and is more well-known in the United States. DeGeneres and Ed have a good relationship. She started her talk show under Adrian's support.

But the problem is that DeGeneres is an absolute gay man. She was refrigerated by ABC at the time, so that her show's ratings were obviously good, but she was cut after the fifth season. It has something to do with her publicly coming out, of course, ABC will definitely not admit it.

However, because of Adrian, she was still kept, and after spending some time transforming, she finally successfully founded the brand "Alan Show".

So, even though "The Allen Show" is more professional and DeGeneres and Ed have a better relationship, they are still put aside and say they don't support homosexuality in front of a homosexual...

Will conservative groups believe it?

Even though Adrian is one of the best powers now, he still has to deal with it carefully in the face of a conservative team. He has said countless times before that a country's size is proportional to its degree of conservatism.

The key reason why the movement of homosexual organizations flourished after the 21st century is that it is anti-discrimination political correctness. If it is done too much, it will still be counterattacked by mainstream society.

Previously, "Brokeback Mountain" was only previewed, but because Adrian was produced, it caused confrontation between people on both sides. Now that it has been released publicly, this debate has become even more intense.

Especially because of the previous fermentation and the strong praise of homosexual organizations, and the slow pace of the film, the emotions displayed are delicate and strong, Ruifan and Pitt's acting skills are also very outstanding, and the final shot has earned a lot of tears from many women, so that neutrals strongly appealed on the Internet that everyone should watch this movie.

So in the first week of its release, Brokeback Mountain won 10 million yuan in 800 theaters, and many residents of Salt Lake City even drove to the surrounding cities to watch it.

Everyone knows in this case that the film of Miracle director has achieved success again, and homosexual organizations are naturally celebrating warmly, while conservative groups want to put more pressure on them.

If it was just a preview before and its influence had not been fully expanded, Adrian could not respond, but now in this case, he must express his opinion.

After all, he is not a Hollywood minority like Ang Lee. He is one of the super rich people in the United States and a media tycoon representing AC Media.

Fortunately, although this intense situation is different from what is expected, Adrian has already prepared a killer weapon, a politically correct stick that is one level higher than anti-discrimination: the will of freedom!

As early as the Cold War, when the United States and the Soviet Union competed for the right to speak for democracy, they held high the sign of freedom because they were at a disadvantage.

Although the United States brought the sign of democracy after the Red Empire was over, it did not give up the sign of freedom. Hollywood, which is left-leaning, has played its best in this regard. In commercial movies, plots such as justice led the people to fight for their own freedom are emerging one after another. Even Morgan Freeman taught Jim Carrey in comedy movies like "The Fake God": You cannot change the will of freedom.

As for whether ordinary people in various legal frameworks of all kinds are really free, it doesn’t matter, as long as they believe it.

So, when Adrian held up the banner of freedom and said that I neither support nor oppose homosexuality, I just hope that people can choose the life they want to live based on their own free will, without hurting others and family and society, and see the broken family of two men in the movie.

This interpretation from a higher level and its media will help shake the flag and shout, which will undoubtedly resonate among neutrals.

The so-called debate is not about refuting the other party, but about winning the neutral, not to mention that neither homosexual organizations nor conservative groups have offended Adrian.

This is a bit of a fence, but in fact he is just riding a fence, and he rides very comfortably.

If you are an ordinary person, you will have to choose the side in the face of this pressure. It will only make you die ugly, but he is different.

He is Adrian Cowell, the director of Miracle in Hollywood and the chairman of AC Media’s board of directors. He alone has supported the legend of half of his media empire!

In the eyes of homosexual organizations, although he showed no support or objection, Brokeback Mountain was enough to get more attention from the homosexual community, not to mention that he also reminded them to be in the name of freedom.

In the eyes of conservative groups, he has clearly expressed his attitude of not opposing but not supporting it, not to mention that he is holding high the banner of freedom, which is enough for a big man.

Besides, didn’t he say that it was on the premise that he did not hurt others, his family, and his society. Homosexuality is a violation of human natural processes and is harmful to society. As long as they work hard to make this accepted and affirmed by the vast majority of people, he must stand on their side.

Of course, the conservative team would not know that this excuse was as expected by Adrian. Not to mention whether such a discriminatory view could be published openly. Even if such a statement was put forward, there would be a homosexual organization to block the gun and defend and refute it as soon as possible. He just needs to watch the show next to him.

In January 2005, most of the quarrels passed by the two groups. With Adrian Cowell's statement on "Daily Show", and many celebrities emerged to support or oppose the two starring actors of "Brokeback Mountain", Revan Phoenix and Brad Pitt were also expressing supportive opinions. Unfortunately, Revan already has a fixed girlfriend, and many people who hope they will become a couple will be disappointed.

Coupled with the cooperation of AC Media's media, Adrian quickly became the secondary target of attention and returned to the backstage. "Brokeback Mountain" also steadily increased its box office step by step. Many paparazzi were unwilling to give up, but so what if they were unwilling to give up?

Their omnipotence is nothing more than the media blowing it out.

I knew that you would be very troubled every time, Ed.

Claude teased him like this at a lunch, even without us cooperating with you, you can use this to turn the Academy's attention elsewhere.

No no no no, Crow, if the college knew about it, my efforts would have been in vain.Adrian said seriously, Do you remember that I told you about a verdict in an ancient Chinese criminal case?

Of course I remember that the same sentence was reversed and the judgments obtained were different.Claude nodded, I know what you mean, but is that all right?

Of course not!Adrian said leisurely and naturally that there are still some conditions. In short, just ensure that the media will not reveal the specific situation before that.

As he said that, he looked to the other side of the dining table, and the fat middle-aged man with a beard on his face had just put a piece of fat and tender beef into his mouth.

Please rest assured, two of you, I don’t understand what you said at all.

He quickly chewed a few bites and swallowed the beef, and by the way, Weinstein shrugged in his heart for not being able to taste the taste.

It doesn't matter, in fact, I want to ask you to do me a favor, Harvey.Adrian picked up the cup and sipped it and smiled.

Happy to serve you, Ed.Weinstein said overjoyed.

As expected, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" will be released this summer. The three super PRs for Adrian not only gave him a media tycoon addiction, but also allowed Miramax to gain a big gold mine. In this case, no matter what Adrian requests, he will agree. Of course

I've been looking forward to your calling.Weinstein chuckled, his eyes almost narrowed into a line.

Weinstein roughly knows what Adrian wants. He just knows from the fact that he calls today to ask him if he wants to have lunch together. If it weren't for the fierce quarrel caused by Brokeback Mountain, I'm afraid that the gossip about his relationship with Natalie and whether the lineup of Miracle Girls will have expanded for a long time in various entertainment websites or newspapers and magazines. You should know that in the three weeks after the release of "Win Forward", this trend is very obvious.

Weinstein was not interested in knowing what the relationship between the two was, not to mention that Adrian was still a powerful playboy.

Weinstein's interest lies in what he wants, which means he can get more benefits from this miracle-making man.

Are you sure there is no problem this time?Adrian said nothing, but showed a smile.

Weinstein was stunned for a moment, then reacted, his face becoming a little embarrassed.

He still knows what the other party means. He has sent his woman to the throne of the Best Actress for six consecutive years. If he wants to continue, even a guy who is good at public relations will find it difficult, not to mention that Natalie is still so young, and...

Although Weinstein didn't know what Adrian and Crowder were talking about just now, as an old fox in Hollywood, he could roughly guess that this situation, not to mention 100%, is already very good if it is 80%.

Don't worry, Harvey.Adrian patted his shoulder again, I want you to help with it very easily.

He looked at him, his eyes becoming a little sharp: I hope to invite respected Mr. John Campbell to come out and chat.

Wayne Stant suddenly opened his eyes wide.
