Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 1086
If she hadn't known that Anthony was devoted and loyal to her old man, Laila would have wondered if he was sent by someone from somewhere else.Isn't it really hurting her to ask her so bluntly about a topic that everyone deliberately ignores?
Well, she also has to admit that the Golden Globes can be taken out of the attention by such a topic that pokes at the dark side.

"I think gender discrimination is something that happens in every country, how much or how little. When it comes to Hollywood, I think everyone will see it clearly even if I don't say it, such as the difference in salaries between male and female actors of the same level. .”

Anthony's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at her in surprise.He asked that sharp question just now because he felt that with the ability of the little boss, he could use more witty words to get past him.Unexpectedly, she actually answered, and directly asked a question that many people knew but ignored all the time.

Looking at the calm face of the boss, he suddenly felt that she might be playing a big game of chess.

So on the second day after the interview, "Entertainment Daily" appeared on the newsstands in the streets and alleys on time.A shocking headline was written in a prominent position - "Hollywood Director Laila Moran Claims Sex Discrimination Is Normal".

Of course, this was the title that was decided upon with the approval of Laila, otherwise this astonishing title alone would be enough for the old man to bring Anthony up in front of him and criticize him severely.

Right now, the Golden Globe Awards are at their most exciting time, and Leila's speech at this time immediately excited the readers.However, after they bought the newspaper and read the above content, they discovered that the accusation of "sex discrimination" did not refer to the Golden Globe Awards, the culprit in everyone's mind, but a bigger target-Hollywood!

In the report, in order to cooperate with Leila's interview, "Entertainment Daily" also listed many first-line top male and female stars, and put their remuneration on it.Accurate figures can immediately present the issues discussed by Leila to the readers. Anyone who does not even know figures can see how big the pay gap between male and female stars of the same level is.

"It turns out that the difference is really so much, it's really terrible!" I don't know how many ordinary people who knew nothing about it exclaimed with emotion after reading the report.

But this kind of remuneration is something that people in Hollywood circles can't get used to.Everyone does this, if you don't do it yourself, won't you offend others?And there is no reason for a 2000 million male star to accept a 1000 million salary to act in your movie, unless it is a particularly good script or directed by a director.Similarly, it is impossible for the producer of the movie to directly increase the price of a female star from 1000 million to 2000 million.

No one is taken advantage of, and no one will say anything more about such a trivial matter.If you exclude Lila, you will find that Hollywood is still a world controlled by men, and if women want to mix in this circle, they can only obey the rules set by men.

If Leila hadn't been rich, powerful, and backgrounded, it would have been an impossible task for her to get out at such a young age.

It is conceivable that the report of "Entertainment Daily" immediately ignited the topic.

People are happy to discuss these things, anyway, it's not their circle, and it would be interesting if the chaos was bigger.

However, in Hollywood circles, there is not some confusion about reporting as the outside world thinks.It can be said that it will go as it should, and no one will say much about the issue of different remuneration, even those female stars.

They also want higher pay and more share, but they also know what their position in Hollywood is like.If the opportunity to act in a movie is lost because of this kind of thing, then what's the use of setting a higher salary?Isn't it cheaper for others?
As a result, a strange situation has formed inside and outside the circle, that is, the discussion outside is in full swing, but there is not even a splash inside.

In fact, Laila made it clear on purpose, because she really wanted to help women in Hollywood fight for their rights.The helpless thing is that there are almost no people who are willing to fight side by side with her, which inevitably makes her feel a little disappointed.

"Don't be disappointed, they also have their difficulties." When Roy heard her sigh and saw her searching for related topics on the Internet, he knew that she was uncomfortable.If it was me, I obviously wanted to fight for others and seek benefits for them, but in the end I stood up, but I didn't even have a person to help, so I would definitely feel uncomfortable.

Lyra shook her head, not wanting to continue the subject.Even if there are a bunch of topics in my heart that I want to talk about, in the end I don't want to say anything.

Tiredness is the deepest feeling she feels at this moment.

Roy rubbed her hair: "In this world, or in the Hollywood circle, many people can't help themselves. You hope that women can get what they deserve, but you forget their helplessness."

Seeing that she finally listened to him, he continued with a smile: "They still need work, they need to take on the show. Do you think if they really stand on your side and speak out, will anyone be willing to go to them? That means It means that you have to spend at least double the salary than before. But if you change to someone who doesn’t agree with you, they will save half of the money. What do you think will happen under such a choice?”

Without waiting for her to answer, he gave the answer: "The people who support you will not even have the initial salary, and will not receive the script of the invitation. Even if you can give them a chance, how many movies can you make in a year? How many actresses can be used by your entire company in a year, do you think you can help them?"

Lyra did not deny that there was some truth to what he said.She can indeed use "normal" prices to invite female stars to join her, but with that money and resources, she prefers to use artists under her own company.

People are realistic, and you have to see your own path clearly before you can go on.There are not many stupid actors who can get into the celebrity circle, so how could they stand up at this time?
Laila could understand their thoughts and worries, but she was still a little depressed.Looks like she's taking a step too far.

In fact, she didn't know it, because her appearance still affected the Hollywood movie circle.

A few years ago, film companies began to discover that female directors are not as bad as they imagined, and they can still give them some opportunities.At the same time, because of the "Kill Bill", which is known as the ultimate in violent aesthetics, Hollywood has seen the charm of major heroine films, so it is willing to develop some heroine films instead of blindly obsessed with male protagonist movies.

All this happened subtly, and Laila didn't know it.After knowing that she was too impatient, she gradually put this matter behind her, because the more important thing to care about is about to begin, that is, the list of nominations for the 82nd Oscar is finally out!
