Chapter 807 Brother-in-law's Day
At Los Angeles International Airport, Ronan Farrow, who had short golden brown hair, walked past the exit, came to the vending machine, bought a copy of the New York Times, and then got on the taxi with his bag on his back.
"Go to Century City in Beverly Hills," he said to the driver.
Watching the driver drive away from the international airport, his eyes gradually turned on the New York Times in his hand.
As a journalist working in New York, Ronan Farrow knew that the New York Times released today has specially added a supplement! A supplement specifically for a man!
This man is the one he is about to visit.
Although the glorious era of paper media is becoming a thing of the past, looking at the past decade, those who can enjoy the treatment of the New York Times' separate supplements can count them with two hands.
For example, Bush Jr., Ben**, ***, Jobs, Bill Gates, etc.
But this time it is different. That man does not belong to the traditional and powerful political and business generation, but a Hollywood superstar!
This is not accurate. The other party is also involved in politics, such as actively participating in activities to support the protection of women and children's rights and interests, and donating to poor areas many times. He is a well-known philanthropist and social activist in the United States.
In addition, he has made some achievements in business and has established his own film production company in Hollywood, and the films he has invested has achieved great success.
This person's influence has long exceeded the scope of entertainment.
Ronan Farrow had a particularly good impression of him because he was not a perfect person.
Perfection represents falsehood.
The man had obvious flaws, the most typical one was the playboy side, but this side was not annoying. Perhaps it was because of his never-hidden sincerity to show equal interactions with women, which made people envious.
He took out the newspaper supplement and saw a picture of Matthew Horner standing up at a glance, next to the picture was an unusually eye-catching title.
"The strong Matthew, a man without weakness!"
Ronan Farrow shook his head and smiled, then fell into thinking. Apart from being a playboy, Matthew Horner seemed to have no other weaknesses.
He went to see the description of the New York Times.
"Matthew Horner, who doesn't seem to be particularly strong, but has muscles, is simply a walking hormone. With his agile skills and outstanding performance talent, he has created one tough guy after another on the big screen!"
Next, the newspaper introduced one after another of the films starring Matthew Horner. Ronan Farrow did not take a closer look because he knew what achievements Matthew Horner had made in the film.
After flipping through the newspaper's narrative about Matthew Horner from the unknown to the fame, he went straight to the end of the article.
"There has never been an action actor who has such a brilliant future. Matthew Horner has achieved a height that neither Sylvester Stallone nor Arnold Schwarzenegger has ever reached. He can be called the only superstar in Hollywood after Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts!"
Ronan Farrow pinched his chin and came from such a family. How could he not care about the film industry at all? After thinking about it, who can be called a superstar besides Matthew Horner?
Harrison Ford is old, Tom Hanks turns behind the scenes, Tom Cruise is floating and up, Leonardo DiCaprio lacks commercial proof except for "Titanic" more than ten years ago, Will Smith is at most a top-line, Brad Pitt is barely in the top-line, Johnny Depp is just a Caribbean superstar...
If Matthew Horner is not a superstar, Hollywood really has no superstar.
But now can superstars summarize Matthew Horner?
Ronan Farrow knew very well that Matthew Horner was no longer as simple as a superstar.
Matthew Horner is simply an inspiring social phenomenon!
The taxi parked in front of a business building in Century City. Ronan Faro calmed down and stuffed the newspaper into his backpack. After paying the fare, he got out of the car and entered the building. He deliberately tidied up his clothes in front of the mirror in the main hall of the building.
Before, he called Matthew Horner to make an appointment to meet this afternoon.
Taking the elevator, I arrived at the floor where Studio No. 13 was located, and explained my purpose to the studio front desk. The other party took him to the door of an office.
Ronan Farrow breathed a sigh of relief. This time he came to Los Angeles, the purpose was actually very simple. I would like to thank Matthew Horner specifically.
The office door opened, the staff member went in and said something, and then asked Ronan Farrow to enter the office.
When Matthew saw the young reporter coming in, he went up to shake his hands, "We're meeting again, Ronan."
Ronan Farrow's hands were trembling a little, "Matthew, I'm very happy and excited to see you again."
"Sit as you like." Matthew signaled a sofa in the office, and took the lead in sitting on another sofa next to him, saying, "Drink something."
Ronan Faro sat down and waved his hand quickly, "No need." He put away the smile on his face and said seriously, "I'm here this time to thank you."
Of course Matthew knew what Ronan Farrow was saying thank you, and smiled and shook his head slightly, "You are so kind, just a little thing."
"No!" Ronan Farrow said very firmly, "This is because I am a very important event!"
Matthew was a little surprised. It seemed that Ronan Farrow had a very big resentment towards Woody Allen.
Ronan Farrow continued, "I really thank you very much."
"You're welcome." Matthew smiled, "As you said, this book is also in my favor."
He had some plans for Ronan Farrow, so he tentatively said, "You don't have to be too persistent in some past things."
Ronan Farrow said slowly and firmly without hiding his head, "I hate those who force women and pretend to be good people!"
"Uh..." For some reason, Matthew suddenly thought of himself from these words.
"I'm not talking about you, Matthew." Ronan Farrow said in particular, "You are completely different from Woody Allen."
He spread his hands and said, "It's nothing to do with women normally. There are seven or eight women I've dated in college, but we never force women to do anything."
Matthew nodded slightly, "It's right."
Even Karolena Kokuva took the initiative to come to him, not to mention forcing him, there was no force.
He has always been very careful in this regard, just as he feels that spending money to find women is very low-level and inefficient, and forcing is simply disgusting.
Matthew admitted that he was not a good person in this regard, or even a super bad guy, but he has always had a bottom line.
Ronan Farrow said slowly, "I have worked hard for so many years and finally I can do something, but in the end I find that what I can do is very limited."
He suddenly laughed at himself, "Matthew, do you know how embarrassed I feel every Father's Day? Oh, Brother-in-law's Day!"
When he heard this and thought of the complex relationship, Matthew could understand Ronan Farrow's feelings. Others celebrate Father's Day, but Ronan Farrow wanted to choose one of the two on Father's Day and Brother-in-law's Day.
If it were me, I would probably not be much better than Ronan Faro.
Ronan Farrow sighed, "There are too many women who are completely manipulated by men like my sister and cannot make their own voices."
Matthew thought for a while and said, "Join in, join us."
"Join?" Ronan Farrow didn't quite understand.
"Speak out to protect women's rights." Matthew's faint tone was full of seriousness, "fight for more women the power they deserve."
He stressed, “Even if not for others, for your sisters.”
Ronan Farrow fell into thinking, put his fingers into his hair, slowly stroking it back, and when his palms passed over his head, he whispered, "They all said that Woody Allen is innocent and truly loved each other."
He suddenly emphasized, "When my mom found out that he was still my mom's boyfriend when he took nude photos of my sister!"
Matthew is hard to comment on other people's family affairs, and there are many different opinions about Woody Allen, and there is no conclusion yet.
Matthew sighed and said, "The media is easily manipulated and coerced by the public relations machines of the entertainment industry, and does not pursue the truth of many things at all."
Is the media in the so-called free world of North America really that fair? It's just a joke. If it's really that fair, there wouldn't be so many media sing praises for him, Matthew Horner for a long time.
At the top of Hollywood, Matthew and Helen Hermann are recognized as good players in promoting and hyping.
Ronan Faro's face was serious, "Matthew, you're right."
"I have always advocated that women should have the same power as men." Matthew's tone became heavy, "in fact, it is not the case. Hollywood will not lack people and things that force women to violate them in the past, present and future."
"Why don't they stand up?" Ronan Farrow asked.
“The women who are forced to violate have no way to make accusations because they face people who can determine their fate.” Matthew said the truth, “and those who dare to stand up and accuse often have to pay a huge price because they have to face a legal system and social and cultural environment that can tear them to pieces.”
Ronan Farrow also knew that Matthew was talking about the truth, and his face was even more serious. "Because of this, I always thought that I should do something and change something."
But Matthew shook his head on purpose, "Ronan, you are not the only one who wants to change, but do you know how big the obstacles are?" He asked again, "Have you ever thought about where to start?"
"I……"
When things came to an end, Ronan Farrow realized that he had thought too much but had too little actual actions. "I haven't considered it specifically, and I haven't had time to think about it yet."
