"Judging from this year's box office, it seems that the industry is having a hard time again." In the living room downstairs of Vivien Leigh's apartment, the whispers of a group of warblers were like the chirping of birds in the morning, which woke up Alan Wilson.
The seat next to the beautiful woman was empty, and she was obviously greeting guests downstairs. Alan Wilson got up, put on his clothes, went to the bathroom to do basic cleaning, and then went downstairs wearing a pajamas.
Amid the sideways glances, he went to the kitchen on his own. The sound of chewing came from the kitchen. Several women looked at Vivien Leigh in surprise, as if waiting for an explanation.
"New faces!" Before Vivien Leigh could say anything, Alan Wilson had already come out of the kitchen with food and looked at a few actresses who should be there, but there was no impression in his mind.
"Lana Turner, Joan Bennett!" Vivien Leigh introduced softly and said gently, "The food is cold, can I make you something new?"
"How many shareholders are there in Barbie?" Alan Wilson took a deep look at the two actresses, shook his head and said, "I don't have any higher pursuit of food. I'm a little tired. I'll go up and sleep for a while, and you can continue chatting.
"
For Alan Wilson, he just came to the western United States for a vacation from the snow-covered Newfoundland. At the same time, he took care of some work. As for meeting more beauties, that would of course be better, but that’s not possible now. Great British Treasure
It's already drained him.
"I asked how Vivian looks so radiant today, it turns out someone is taking care of her." Lana Turner chirped, with a look that I understand, "Which state is he from, what is he doing, is he a businessman or a director."
"He is British!" Vivien Leigh was slightly unhappy. Lana Turner's words obviously meant that Vivien Leigh and Alan Wilson were engaging in body trade, which was very outrageous.
It was clear that both of them had decided last night that they wanted a baby belonging to them to witness their love. Now hearing such words made Vivien Leigh feel quite harsh.
"Lana doesn't mean anything." Joan Bennett explained from the side, "It's just that we have known each other for a long time, and I have never seen you have any personal feelings, so I am a little surprised."
The topic returned to the topic of movie involution, and after a while, Lana Turner and Joan Bennett left.
Vivien Leigh went back upstairs and looked at the man who had been hollowed out. She couldn't get enough of it. "I have flowers on my face?" Alan Wilson closed his eyes and said, "Your two celebrity friends are gone?"
"Well, let's go. It's not easy to do business in the film industry this year. Many people have a lot of time to socialize." Vivien Leigh looked at Alan Wilson's face and asked gently, "Are you full?"
Alan Wilson suddenly opened his eyes, thought seriously and said, "Let's go to the kitchen and cook something together."
Strictly speaking, the Golden Age of Hollywood is over, but many female stars left over from the Golden Age are still active. Therefore, the public perception is that the film industry is still bright with stars, creating the illusion that the Golden Age is still there!
For these first-line actors, no one understands better than them the extent of the decline of the film industry.
Of course Alan Wilson knew in his heart that this was because American television was becoming popular and had an impact on the film industry. This was the most fundamental reason, but what? From a British perspective, there could be another reason.
From this time on, film actresses who became outstanding faced industry competition that was much more difficult than before the outbreak of World War II.
In the 1940s, the American film industry was considered to be a severely "leftist" group. Many Hollywood filmmakers joined the Communist Party of America or formed industry unions. More and more works exposed social contradictions and the suffering of the people at the bottom.
Life.
Hollywood stars cannot speak of political leanings, because they try to always stand on the side of "political correctness", such as humanitarianism, anti-war, anti-discrimination, anti-oppression, caring for the disadvantaged, etc.
Because actors are a special group. Although big stars have enough financial resources, their livelihood still depends on their popularity. Naturally, stars cannot go against the public's thinking, so the celebrity group likes to create characters.
This time Vivien Leigh came to the United States, she could clearly feel that the film industry was not as prosperous as when she was filming Gone with the Wind before the war. The U.S.'s pro-Soviet censorship of Hollywood had already begun, and the cases of the Ten Hollywood People had already broken out.
When McCarthy was in the limelight, he did not point the finger at Hollywood. At most, he could only say that he would continue the previous censorship. The case of the Hollywood Ten had nothing to do with McCarthy.
But now, with Alan Wilson, McCarthy's close friend, Hollywood will never escape Senator McCarthy's sight. The impact of the television industry has only caused Hollywood to be underestimated. Alan Wilson is different. He feels that
The idea of a Hollywood Half-Life is not too much at all.
And as mentioned before, Hollywood does not love the Soviet Union very much, but it will never abandon political correctness. This is determined by the attributes of the actor group and the film industry.
The most important thing is that these groups who pretend to care about political correctness usually kneel and shake their fists, and are very easy to bully. If they don't clean up, they will be sorry for Alan Wilson's personal ethics of bullying the weak and shying away from the strong.
"If the film industry is in recession, go back to Europe, but don't go back to London. The air in London becomes more unbearable at this time. If you settle in Paris or Rome, I will make arrangements and I can visit you often."
After skillfully preparing a fish, Ellen Wilson and Vivien Leigh sat down face to face. After Vivien Leigh tasted it, she praised it without hesitation, "You always surprise people in this regard."
"I learned from the Chinese that the most indispensable thing in Newfoundland is fish. I almost turned into a fish." Alan Wilson shrugged, "But fortunately, I successfully completed the work and transformed Newfoundland into a fish."
For the royal family territory, this result is quite gratifying.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "You are always so humble!" Vivien Leigh looked admiring, and then hinted that they should get intimate, "No one is here anyway..."
Alan Wilson disagrees with this. What do you mean, no one is coming anyway? It should be said, so what if someone is coming...
In broad daylight, Alan Wilson, who didn't get out of bed, hugged the British treasure, his thoughts were clear, and his thinking was much more active, "I want to invite a friend to Los Angeles as a guest. Do you have any friends who are willing to host him? Don't get me wrong, it's not about...
What kind of deal do you want? It’s best if you want an actor who is interested in politics. By the way, who is the president of the Screen Actors Guild now?”
"It's Ronald Reagan, but I don't know him, but Joan knows his wife, Jane Wyman. Now they seem to be filing for divorce, because Ronald Reagan is obviously more interested in politics." Vivien Leigh said the same.
Like a kitten, he hugged Alan Wilson's body and whispered softly, "Many people believe that the political climate is killing Hollywood."
Isn't this a good thing? Alan Wilson touched Vivien Leigh's hair and whispered softly, "Vivian, I think you may be worrying too much. I believe that the president of the Screen Actors Guild is not that kind of person."
Ronald Reagan? He was the one he was looking for. Apart from him, Alan Wilson would never have thought that it would be more appropriate for him to invite McCarthy, and it would be more appropriate for him to have another person in Hollywood as his companion.
This third-rate actor, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease in his later years, seems to have a deceptive work called Reaganomics.
Didn’t President Reagan have the famous Reaganomics? Tax cuts, financial deregulation, and government spending reductions. Under the guidance of Reaganomics, U.S. imperialism officially changed from being dominated by industrial capital after the war to being dominated by financial capital.
The debt economy, the hollowing out of industry, and the globalization of Wall Street were all things President Reagan started to step on the accelerator.
Donald Reagan, the boss of Merrill Lynch, the world's largest financial group at the time, an important financial backer of Reagan's presidential campaign, and the 66th Secretary of the Treasury of the United States.
Everyone on Wall Street knows that "Reaganomics" refers to Donald Reagan, the man who opened the flood gates on Wall Street. Ronald Reagan, the actor and host who was busy selling cigarettes in those days, had the ability to name a person
Economics?
He, President Reagan, is just the executor of another Reagan Treasury Secretary. It's just that the two of them have the same last name, which makes people mistakenly think that Reaganomics belongs to him.
Is he worthy? If the opponent is not an enemy like Gottlieb, and Reagan's opponent is any normal person, if he grits his teeth and persists for ten years without doing anything, the United States will kneel down.
"Vivian, please help me. With Reagan's interest in politics, I believe that if he gets the news, he will take the initiative. I have no doubt about it." Alan Wilson said to the British treasure's face.
Damn, please help me.
"Then it depends on you, whether you can give me enough motivation." Vivien Leigh's eyes were almost dripping with water, and she twisted her body with a peach-shaped face, and the meaning was self-evident.
As an imperial civil servant who could sacrifice everything for the British Empire, Alan Wilson was loyal to the empire and did not care about personal gains and losses. Blood and sweat were nothing.
Vivien Leigh is now the core figure of the largest group in Hollywood's recession, so she naturally has a lot of face. Although her entry into Hollywood this time was not as smooth as the last time, she has greatly expanded her network of contacts.
As early as the British India period, Vivien Leigh had been taught by Alan Wilson's words and deeds, and her communication skills had made great progress. She just found a reason and went to Jane Wyman's home with Joan Crawford.
Jane Wyman and Reagan were in the midst of a divorce lawsuit, but the lawsuit was lengthy, and the two did not dare to claim to be famous, but they were also public figures, so on the surface they were still in peace. Before the divorce, the two still lived under the same roof.
Down.
Women can talk about anything when their feelings are in place. The news about the British consul inviting senators as guests attracted Reagan, who originally didn't want to care about the family's filial piety, to listen to it with great interest.
