From Flower Vase to Film Emperor in Hollywood

Times are changing.

Indeed, people still adore handsome men and beautiful women; Hollywood is a star-making factory, allowing people to appreciate beautiful things; but over time, aesthetic fatigue begins to set in, and people begin to form stereotypes, while also looking forward to seeing more.

Once, heartthrobs like Marlon Brando, Montgomery Clift, and James Stewart could easily gain popularity, and their talent and ability were also recognized.

Now, handsome appearances are becoming shackles and burdens for actors, and preconceived stereotypes make people full of criticism towards these handsome and beautiful actors, judging them with a more rigorous and demanding attitude.

Indeed, just from appearances, like Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, and George Clooney, people can't help but wonder what it feels like to live with Anson's appearance?

However, they are also facing their own challenges.

Anson is thinking, exploring, and has his own ideas and philosophies.

This is a beginning.

Even more commendable is that Anson is only eighteen years old.

Abruptly, it ended.

Nicholas's exclusive interview came to an abrupt end in this way, not because he had no ideas or didn't know how to end it. In fact, Nicholas's inspiration was still flowing, but after careful consideration, he believed that leaving a blank space was the best way to end this interview.

August 8th, Wednesday.

"The New York Times" published this exclusive interview, and unusually paired it with two photos.

As a professional and serious newspaper, "The New York Times" still adheres to some old rules, refusing to turn the newspaper into a dazzling and colorful spectacle. Even when choosing photos, they must be impactful, not relying on quantity to win, which highlights the special nature of this exclusive interview.

Early in the morning, Anna Wintour saw the neatly stacked magazines on her desk, but she really had no interest today. The magazine topics in the recent period were all the same and lacked creativity—

She doesn't like the summer movie season.

Because every year at this time, fashion magazines more or less need to compromise with Hollywood, allowing some actors or directors to promote themselves in the magazines.

Promotion is not the problem; the problem is that the topics are all the same and lack novelty.

The monotonous science fiction blockbusters of the summer movie season are extinguishing the creative选题 of fashion magazines, including "Vogue". Although as an industry leader, Anna Wintour has the power to make decisions, they can be willful, but there is still a bottom line, and they cannot offend all the film companies and top superstars.

—Boring. Tedious. Pale. Old-fashioned.

Anna just glanced at the cover, and the little interest left was completely extinguished. These are all trash.

Somewhat bored, she opened "The New York Times". This newspaper is not for fashion, but to maintain industry sensitivity and current affairs sensitivity to ensure that she does not become out of touch, but it can also be considered part of her work.

Then, Anna saw the exclusive interview.

Her eyes lit up.

The topic is not new, but the perspective and development method are very fresh. Anna actually read the entire exclusive interview with relish.

"Anson Wood…"

Anna chewed on it carefully. She did recall a small matter. Her daughter mentioned the movie "The Princess Diaries" a few days ago, expressing some interest. They might as well go to the cinema to see this work. However, this is just a small matter, not the point. The point is Anson.

The premiere of "The Princess Diaries" was the first time Anna truly became interested in Anson. As a fashion devil, she immediately smelled an opportunity; but Anna has been busy these days with the upcoming Fashion Week, and has not put this matter on the agenda for the time being.

However, now it seems…

"The New York Times" has discovered a possibility and pointed out a direction. "Vogue" magazine naturally cannot follow suit, absolutely impossible; but Anna has an inspiration, maybe Anson can indeed become a new weathervane.

David Beckham?

Anna: Heh heh.

It's not that Anna doesn't like David. In fact, she also recognizes David's handsomeness and charm; but to be honest, David's fashion taste is a mess, purely a mess. The real behind-the-scenes hero is Victoria Beckham. People always say that David made Victoria, but the fact should be the other way around. Victoria made David.

David is just a model. Without Victoria, he is nothing. If you risk digging deeper, you will soon expose his secrets.

But, they can't ask for too much, after all, David is just a football player, right?

But looking at Anson in front of her, Anna thinks that things are starting to get interesting, especially this "New York Times" report, which made her smell an opportunity.

Ordinary people read the news, reading the literal information; real masters read the news, reading the information outside the literal meaning.

Anna noticed a detail:

Real, in-depth, detailed personal preferences.

Hollywood has always believed in mysticism, because the film industry is the art of creating dreams, and the ultimate goal of all practitioners is to make movies an art presented on the big screen, so that the public has a sense of admiration for actors and directors, and the existence of mysticism is very necessary.

Once the mysterious halo disappears, the audience will often be disillusioned, and the movie business may face setbacks.

From another perspective, mysticism is losing its charm.

Of course, as far as the current situation is concerned, it mainly occurs in the music market; moreover, even in the music market, this "neighborly" concept is just a label, a persona, an image, and does not truly make the artist's profession life-like, it can only be regarded as a brand new business image.

The film market is even more so.

As a fashion pioneer, Anna's sense of the market is keen.

From this "New York Times" report, Anna realized one thing, perhaps, in the next ten years, "reality" will be the label that fits the market.

In fact, it is true.

Before Justin Bieber became the first top superstar to evolve through online video website platforms in 2008, the full rise of talent shows like "American Idol" in 2001, and the explosion of dramas like "Hannah Montana" describing global superstars as classmates in 2006,

Now, taking the lead, Anna accurately grasps the pulse of the times.

Thoughts surged.

Thinking of this, Anna connected to the internal line, "Contact Anson's agent or publicist for me. Immediately."

Then, after hanging up the phone, the "Vogue" magazine headquarters in New York suddenly started to get busy.

Perhaps, an exclusive interview—even an exclusive interview with "The New York Times"—is just a spark, but this spark quickly spread out.

With the势 of a prairie fire.
