Chapter 223 222. Eight Li Family
Justin Timberlake, before the bad things he did were exposed, was a super boy who was sought after by thousands of people. In China, he was called Boss Jia.
Because he was a man with a good sense of business, he invested in clothing, golf, catering and other industries and made a lot of money.
But since the incident was exposed, he immediately became a scumbag who was beaten by thousands of people and became a garbage despised by the whole world.
And the woman who was hurt the most by him was not just Britney Spears. Almost all those who had a relationship with him had a bad ending.
Janet Jackson only worked with him once, and her career plummeted and her popularity fell to the bottom.
The 2004 Super Bowl halftime show specially invited the queen-level Janet Jackson and the popular young Justin to work together.
But at the end of the performance, Justin Timberlake suddenly tore off Janet's clothes, causing Janet's right breast to be exposed in the camera.
Even if the director hurriedly cut the camera, the picture was still seen by more than 80 million viewers.
You should know that the Super Bowl is a national event, and the audience includes a large number of minors and children under the age of ten.
Although a breast exposure scene will not have a bad impact on people's mental state, not to mention that the duration of the shot is very short.
But this is still a serious broadcast accident. Who makes you a public figure? Who makes you a big star? You must bear this responsibility.
After the performance, the National Football League, the broadcaster CBS and the producer MTV all received a large number of complaints.
The FBI launched an investigation into the incident, and some angry viewers directly took legal action and demanded a sky-high mental damages.
As the two centers of the incident, Jenny publicly apologized in front of the media, saying that it was an accident and she didn't expect her bra to be torn. She had no intention of hyping herself by exposing herself and didn't want to let anyone down.
And Justin Timberlake still carried forward his fine tradition, pretending to be dead and talking about other things.
He did not admit that it was his responsibility, but just said that it was careless at the time, he was too excited to sing, etc., using vague words to shirk responsibility.
In an instant, the media and the public all pointed their fingers at Janet Jackson. Who asked you to apologize?
If you don't apologize, everyone can only regard all the participants as the responsible persons, but if no one else apologizes, only you apologize, then you are the responsible person.
Otherwise, you are not the responsible person, why do you apologize!
You knocked someone down, but you didn't knock him down, why do you help him up!
But in a later interview, Janet said that she was forced to apologize because she was about to release a new album.
The management team, record company and other interested parties all hope that the situation will be settled quickly, forcing her to apologize and ask for forgiveness quickly, so as not to affect the release of the album.
This decision is obviously very wrong, and it is exactly the same as the child molestation case of Michael in 1993.
At that time, the management team and the Chandler family reached a settlement agreement, and Michael was on tour abroad at the time. After returning, he found that the matter was already settled. Everyone around him advised him not to affect his career because of the lawsuit, and he could only pay money to settle privately. His eldest sister Toya also stabbed him in the back.
After Jenny apologized, Grammy, MTV and others wanted to ban her, saying that she must take full responsibility, and they all tried to clear themselves of all blame.
And it was rumored that after the incident, Justin went to MTV and CBS privately, apologized to the heads of the two companies in person, cried bitterly, and was forgiven.
But Jenny did not go, so all the criticism was directed at her.
This incident caused Janet Jackson's career to plummet. She was originally known as the four queens with Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Madonna.
After entering the millennium, the overall record industry was sluggish, and the sales of the other three people declined a lot. Only Jenny continued to maintain her advantage, but she fell behind instantly after this incident.
Justin Timberlake was not affected, but his popularity soared.
The truth of the Super Bowl incident can no longer be verified. Was it an accident or intentional? Who designed the bra-tearing segment? Is Jenny absolutely innocent? Is Justin a victim?
But Justin apologized to Jenny for this incident more than ten years later. If it has nothing to do with you, why should you apologize? If you are determined that you are not wrong, why apologize? Was he also coerced?
Even if we make the worst inference, Jenny and Justin planned this incident together.
So should Justin stand up like a man? His cowardly appearance is obviously to evade responsibility, which shows his bad character.
Since Eric knew it, he must make the worst plan and treat it as if it will happen.
It is obviously impossible to persuade Jenny to withdraw from the Super Bowl at this time, as the contract has been signed.
We can only take precautions in advance, so that if something unexpected happens, "The Voice" will definitely be sprayed with shit, and it will lose before the competition begins.
The second week box office of "Saw 2" is released, with a 53% drop in North America, a little more, and a box office of 25 million US dollars.
Some overseas countries have begun to release it, and it has won 21 million US dollars in the box office, and the global box office is about to exceed 100 million.
The box office success naturally boosted MGM's stock price, which rose by another 2.23% to about $11.6 billion, and is very close to the previous 20th Century Fox.
As long as there is another hit or a few profitable works, it is certain to surpass Fox.
As for the competitor "Dead Silence", it has been swept into the garbage heap.
Like "Saw 2", "Dead Silence" has also begun to be gradually released overseas, but unfortunately, the overseas box office is as bad as in North America.
Any movie has certain limitations, just like martial arts movies cannot go beyond Asia, European and American horror movies can generally only be popular in Europe and the United States, and Japanese, Korean and Thai horror movies are spread in Asia.
So American audiences do not recognize "Dead Silence", and the same is true for Europe and South America. The cultural similarities lead to the same starting point for examining a movie, and they all think it is terrible.
Judging from the current overseas box office trend, "Dead Silence" will be lucky to earn more than 10 million. Analysis agencies predict that the global box office of this movie will hardly exceed 40 million US dollars. Lionsgate will lose money and can only hope for the DVD market.
At the same time, the development momentum of YouTube is very encouraging. After the peak, it can still attract tens of thousands of registered users every day.
The influence of the shoulder dance continues to spread. Not only is it played in the European and American circles, but there are also many imitators in Asia.
In the words of Howard Hughes, it is like a whirlwind that cannot be stopped.
The funny music short film "PPAP" shot by Michael was also officially launched on the market a few days ago.
As expected, the interesting video is still interesting even after more than ten years. "PPAP" quickly spread.
Since only the first half of the song was captured, it is very easy to imitate, far less difficult than the shoulder shaking dance. Imitation videos appeared on YouTube as soon as it was released.
With exaggerated movements and magical expressions, coupled with simple and catchy lyrics, the American-Japanese named Yamanaka suddenly became popular.
Clubs, bars, and talk shows have invited him to the stage, but unfortunately the copyright of the song belongs to YouTube, not to him personally, so he has no right to sing.
For this reason, Yamanaka specifically applied to YouTube, and the company did not make it difficult for him and chose to authorize.
The profits he obtained from any activities related to "PPAP" were divided into 80% and 20%, with YouTube taking 80% and Yamanaka taking 20%.
Don't complain about it being too little. 20% is enough for you to eat and drink. After all, you are just an unknown performer.
You didn't participate in the creation, recording, or promotion. What else does a wage earner want?
Without you, there would still be Nara and Akimichi. 20% is already a gift and favor from God. Thank you.
Beverly Hills, Nicole's house.
"Jenny, just as I expected, your cooking skills are really great, not inferior to those Michelin chefs at all."
Eric ate the food while praising one of his future mothers-in-law.
Chefs like to be praised for their cooking skills. Jenny happily cut another steak for Eric.
"Eric, it's so pleasant to communicate with you. Nicole's father rarely praises me. He only eats. When he is full, he sits on the sofa and watches TV, or goes to the study to read."
"This is normal, Jenny. Anthony has enjoyed your good craftsmanship for decades. He has become accustomed to it. I think he must have often praised you when he was young."
Nicole agreed with this: "Yes, I remember when I was a teenager, my father often praised you for your beauty."
"Hehe! He is stupid because of reading books. He studies psychology all day and uses his research results on others. He should study my psychology more."
"Eric, I heard from Nicole that your parents have maintained a good relationship for decades."
Eric Nodding slightly: "Yes, they rarely quarreled, at least in my memory. My parents got married when they were about 30 years old. At that time, they were mature and knew what they wanted."
"So when they found each other, they lived happily all the time. Of course, both of them have good personalities and tempers, which is also the main reason."
Jenny looked relieved: "It is really not easy to see such a couple in Hollywood and the entertainment industry. Your parents are lucky to fall in love, and they are even luckier to have such an excellent son like you."
Jenny's words are really not a casual compliment. The chaos in the entertainment industry is well known, and the chaos in Hollywood is world-famous.
The representative figure is Elizabeth Taylor. Although this aunt is a good friend of Michael, her emotional life is also an unusual mess.
When many people talk about the most unprofitable movies, they will immediately think of "Cleopatra". It started shooting in 1960 and cost about 44 million US dollars. After inflation and other factors, it is about the current 500 million US dollars.
The final box office was about 20 million US dollars, which was worse than the loss of "Windtalkers". "Captain Marvel 2" is nothing compared to it.
One of the main reasons why the movie lost so much money was that it was boycotted, because Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton were together, and they were both married at the time.
The news was exposed and instantly became a global hot search. Even the Vatican criticized their lifestyle. They were spurned and the movie was unlucky.
But this cheating was just a small episode for Elizabeth Taylor. She had experienced eight marriages in her life, just like a joke.
Many of them were married cheating and being a mistress to steal men.
The brand "Ba Li Shi Jia" appeared too late, otherwise she should be invited to endorse it.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are also classic cheating couples. Madonna and her husbands, Kim Kardashian really treated it as a game.
In this vanity fair, growing old together is almost futile; not many people like Eric's parents can maintain a happy marriage for decades.
However, Eric has 100% trust in his mother, a devout Christian, but he is skeptical about his father, thinking that the other party must have had an affair.
For example, he always felt that the relationship between his father and Susan was unusual, but the old guy handled it very well and found no clues.
The meal was enjoyed by both the guests and the host. Jenny was so amused by Eric that she happily went to clean up the mess.
"You have a smooth tongue, Eric Cooper. You have deceived so many women with your clever mouth."
Nicole poked Eric with her finger, but he bit him, and then picked her up by the waist.
"Oops, wait don't do this, my mother can see it."
"Just see it when you see it. She already knows it, right?"
"Knowing your size, she only knows that I have a crush on you, but she doesn't know that the two of us have been having sex secretly for a year."
Hearing this, Eric suddenly felt a little dazed. It had been a year. Unknowingly, the two of them had been together for a year. Time flew by so fast.
He carried Nicole towards the bathroom: "You can't see it from here."
"No! Do you think others are fools? Seeing the two of us disappear together, my mother knew that she must have done nothing good."
"Baby, these days in China, I miss you so much that you always have to help me."
"It's weird to believe you. No one cares about you there. You don't know how much fun you have. Take your hands away and don't touch me."
Well.
Nicole was caught and the two kissed passionately, and her resistance began to weaken.
The land had not been irrigated for several days, and Neeko soon began to pant.
The villa is warm, so the clothes you wear are not thick at all.
Eric pushed up, and the off-white sweater had been rolled up.
The color of this underwear is so cool!
"Wait, I really can't, honey, it's too embarrassing!"
"oops!"
"Eric, you guy"
"Pfft. What's wrong with me?"
"Come in, we must fight quickly!"
"As you command!"
When Eric left, he said goodbye to the smiling Jenny, and found no strangeness in the other person's face.
After he left, Jenny immediately glared at Nicole: "Girl, you seem to be a little forgetful, and you are too courageous even in your own home. You should at least take my existence into consideration."
"Sorry, Mom." Nicole turned her head awkwardly.
"And the situation seems to be different from what you said. This is not as simple as good feelings. What is the relationship between you two? Tell me honestly!"
After Nicole finished explaining, Jenny sighed: "Daughter, you have chosen a difficult path."
"I know."
"Actually, I don't quite understand. Do you think there will really be a result between you two?"
"I don't know, but I hope there will be."
"Oh! Nicole, Eric is really nice to you? Apart from his sweet mouth."
"He gave me 1% of the shares."
"What?"
"On the eve of MGM's listing, he gave me 1% of his shares, which are now worth more than 100 million."
Jenny took a step back: "Okay, pretend I didn't say anything, I wish you happiness."
"Haha. Don't be like this, Mom, do you have any good suggestions?"
Jenny pondered for a moment: “There is only one step I can think of.”
"Say it!"
"child."
