At Los Angeles International Airport, Ronan Farrow with short blond-brown hair stepped through the exit, went to the vending machine, bought a copy of The New York Times, and then carried his bag into a taxi.

"Go to Century City, Beverly Hills," he told the driver.

Watching the driver drive away from the international airport, his eyes gradually settled on the "New York Times" in his hand.

As a journalist working in New York, Ronan Farrow knows that today's issue of The New York Times features a special addition! A supplement added specifically for a man!

This man was the one he was about to visit.

Although the glorious era of print media is becoming a thing of the past, looking at the past decade or so, the number of people who can enjoy the treatment of a separate supplement by The New York Times can be counted on two hands.

Such as Bush, Ben **, ***, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, etc...

But this time is different, that man does not belong to the traditional strong political and business two-term, but a Hollywood superstar!

It's not quite accurate to say that. The other party is also involved in politics. For example, he actively participates in activities to support the rights and interests of women and children, and has made donations to poverty-stricken areas many times. He is a well-known philanthropist and social activist in the United States.

In addition, he has also made achievements in business, and now he has set up his own film production company in Hollywood, and his films have been very successful.

This man's influence has long gone beyond entertainment.

Ronan Farrow was particularly impressed with him because he was not a perfect man.

Perfection means falsehood.

That person has obvious flaws, the most typical of which is the **** side, but this side is not annoying, maybe it is the sincere expression of equality with women that never hides, but it is enviable.

He took out the newspaper supplement and saw at a glance a picture of Matthew Horner standing up, next to the picture was an unusually striking headline.

"The strong Matthew, a man with no weaknesses!"

Ronan Farrow shook his head and smiled, then fell back into thinking, other than being a playboy, Matthew Horner really doesn't seem to have any other weaknesses.

He went to the New York Times for a description.

"Matthew Horner, who doesn't seem to be particularly strong, but is full of muscles, is simply a walking hormone. With his agile skills and outstanding acting talent, he has created one after another tough guy image on the big screen!"

What followed was the newspaper's introduction to Matthew Horner's film after film, which Ronan Farrow didn't look at because he knew what Matthew Horner had accomplished in film.

After flipping through the newspapers about Matthew Horner's rise from nobody to fame, he went straight to the end of the article.

"No action actor has ever been so brilliant, Matthew Horner has achieved a level that neither Sylvester Stallone nor Arnold Schwarzenegger has reached, and he is Tom Cruise. , after Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, the only superstar in Hollywood!"

Ronan Farrow squeezed his chin. He came from such a family. How could he not care about the film industry at all? After thinking about it, who can be called superstars except Matthew Horner who are still active in the film industry today?

Harrison Ford is getting old, Tom Hanks turns behind the scenes, Tom Cruise is ups and downs, Leonardo DiCaprio lacks commercial proof in addition to "Titanic" more than a decade ago, Will Smith is on the top line at most, Brad Pitt is barely on the front line, and Johnny Depp is just a Caribbean superstar...

If Matthew Horner isn't a superstar, there really isn't one in Hollywood.

But can superstars now sum up Matthew Horner?

Ronan Farrow is well aware that Matthew Horner is no longer a superstar.

Matthew Horner is simply an inspiring social phenomenon!

The taxi stopped in front of a commercial building in Century City. Ronan Farrow packed his mind, stuffed the newspaper into his backpack, paid the fare, got out of the car, and entered the building. He deliberately looked at the mirror in the main hall of the building and sorted it out. own clothes.

Before, he made a special call to make an appointment with Matthew Horner to meet this afternoon.

Take the elevator to the floor where Studio No. 13 is located, and explain to the front desk of the studio that he is here. The other party takes him to the front of an office.

Ronan Farrow let out a sigh of relief. The purpose of coming to Los Angeles this time is actually very simple, specifically to thank Matthew Horner.

The office door opened, the staff member went in and said something, then invited Ronan Farrow into the office.

Matthew saw the young reporter who came in, went up to him and shook hands with him, "We meet again, Ronan."

Ronan Farrow's hand trembled a little, "Matthew, I'm very happy and excited to see you again."

"Sit whatever you want." Matthew gestured to a sofa in the office, and he took the lead in sitting on the other sofa next to him and said, "Drink something."

After sitting down, Ronan Farrow waved his hand quickly, "No need." He put away the smile on his face and said very seriously, "I came here this time to thank you."

Of course Matthew knew what Ronan Farrow said about being thankful, and smiled and shook his head slightly, "You're too polite, it's just a trivial matter."

"No!" Ronan Farrow said very firmly, "This is a very important event for me!"

Matthew was a little surprised. It seems that Ronan Farrow's resentment for Woody Allen is not too big.

Ronan Farrow continued, "I really appreciate you."

"You're welcome." Matthew smiled, "As you said, this is also in my favor."

He had some plans for Ronan Farrow, so he said tentatively, "You don't have to be too obsessed with some things in the past."

Ronan Farrow didn't hide it, shook his head slowly but firmly and said, "I hate people who force women and pretend to be good people!"

"Uh..." For some reason, Matthew suddenly thought of himself.

"I'm not talking about you, Matthew." Ronan Farrow observed extremely keenly, and said in particular, "You are completely different from Woody Allen."

He spread his hands, "It's nothing to have a normal relationship with women. There were seven or eight women who I had relationships with in college, but we never forced women to do anything."

Matthew nodded lightly, "That's right."

Even Carolina Kokova took the initiative to find him, not to mention coercion, not even reluctance.

He's always been paying attention to this, just like he thinks it's very low-level and unprofessional to pay for a woman, the coercion is disgusting.

Matthew admits that he's not a good guy or even a super villain in this regard, but he's always had a bottom line.

Ronan Farrow said slowly, "After so many years of hard work, I can finally 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 embarrassing I am on Father's Day every year? Oh, brother-in-law's day!"

Hearing this and thinking of the intricate relationship, Matthew can understand Ronan Farrow's feelings. Others celebrate Father's Day, but Ronan Farrow has to choose between Father's Day and Brother-in-law's Day.

If you replace yourself, it is estimated that it will not be much better than Ronan Farrow.

Ronan-Farrow sighed, "There are too many women like my sister who are completely manipulated by men and can't make their voices heard."

Matthew thought about it and said, "Join in, join us."

"Join?" Ronan Farrow didn't quite understand.

"Speak up for the protection of women's rights." Matthew's light tone was full of seriousness, "Strive for the rights that more women deserve."

He emphasized, "If not for others, but also for your sisters."

Ronan Farrow fell into thought, intertwined his hands in his hair, and slowly stroked it back, until his palms passed the top of his head, and said softly, "They all say Woody Allen is innocent and truly in love. "

He suddenly emphasized, "When my mom found out that he was taking **** pictures of my sister, he was still my mom's boyfriend!"

Matthew is not good at commenting on other people's family affairs, and there are different opinions about Woody Allen's affairs. It is still inconclusive.

Matthew sighed and said, "The media is easily manipulated and coerced by the public relations machines of the entertainment industry bosses, and they don't pursue the truth of many things at all."

Is the media in the so-called free world in North America really that fair? It's a joke at all, and if it's so fair, it won't always have the media to sing his praises to Matthew Horner for a long time.

At the top of Hollywood, Matthew and Helen Herman are recognized as masters of publicity.

Ronan Farrow looked 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, this is not the case. Hollywood has, is, and will have no shortage of people and things that force women to violate them."

"Why don't they come forward?" Ronan Farrow asks ~lightnovelpub.net~ Women who are forcibly assaulted have no way to make accusations, because they are facing someone who can decide their fate. "Matthew is telling the truth," and those very few who dare to stand up and accuse often pay a huge price, because they have to face a legal system and social and cultural environment that can tear them to shreds. "

Ronan Farrow also knew that Matthew was telling the truth, and his face was more serious. "Because of this, I always think that I should do something and change something."

Matthew shook his head deliberately, "Ronan, it's not just you who want to change, but do you know how big the obstacles are?" He asked again, "Have you thought about where to start?"

"I……"

When the event came to an end, Ronan Farrow discovered that he thought too much, but took too little actual action. "I haven't thought about it in detail, and I haven't had time to think about it."

Speaking of which, he was a little annoyed, "I'm too obsessed with Woody Allen."
