      Small Business Development Handbook

      Ai is very real.

      First of all you need to make sure that you are not the kind of entrepreneur who is doing everything from scratch. These people have strong bones, absolute patience and superhuman willpower. It has achieved the status of an industry giant through years of accumulation without relying on any capital intervention. First of all, the legend of this kind of person is more fake than the Wolverine rumor. If you need to see that kind of hero who is both bitter and capable, I...

      I just wanna be with it anyway

      - "If one day, you were not a singer, what would you want to do?"
      - "I would want to go to college."
      - "Oh, so, what major do you want to study?"
      - - "Music..."

      I saw an interview from a classmate Fang Mou yesterday. Reminds me after watching the movie.

      If you love something, then your stubbornness or compromising is all about not separating from your love.

      It is very hypocritical to say this, but this is a fact that should be there.

      That's...

      Dedication is worse than pleasure

      Ed Wood, a Hollywood director who was active in the 1950s and 1960s, is a tongue-in-cheek and unfamiliar name. If you don't know enough about Hollywood movies, you won't know who he is. Throughout the history of Hollywood film development, many directors and actors have been dubbed "box office king", "movie king" and other resounding titles because of their brilliant achievements in their film careers. So if you are lucky, you will be lucky. If an actor's multiple films encounter box-office...

      The vicissitudes of the old and the struggle of the young

      I was expecting to see Depp's bearded face, but I didn't expect it to be a green photo. Well, to be honest, at first I really couldn't stand the black and white shots plus an old vampire, if it wasn't for the Dracula name that was a little more appealing to me (well, plus the most famous Transylvania's place). What really moved me wasn't Ed working so hard for his dreams, but the old star who was struggling and forgotten, but still wants to make a comeback. When he lost his pension and went to...

      If love is not blessed

      When watching "Edwood", I thought of one person: Wang Yuelun. The first time I saw his work "Perfect Nine Beauty", I was very angry: "What is this?!" The director of such a bad film actually has a very decent resume, and even filmed an MV for Faye Wong. Later, after his participation in "Where Are We Going, Dad" became popular, he saw an interview that Wang Yuelun had a very low laugh, and often laughed on the set when filming. I suddenly realized that someone with such a low laugh point would...

      Edwood's dedication to movies is respectable. Although he did not achieve any success in his absurd life, he was still famous in film history, became the worst director in history, and cultivated a group of fans. Maybe this can also make him smile Jiuquan....

      Cut! It's perfect! Every one of us hides in our hearts dreams that are not allowed by this world and cannot be realized. What Ed moved us was that although he was not a successful director, nor did he have a successful life in the eyes of others, he never gave up his dream, always lived in his dream, and lived out his life. his dream. This is what makes us even a little jealous of him. Who cares about success if it's not the success you want? Who cares about the outcome if you've enjoyed the...

    Movie plot

    In Hollywood in 1951, Ed Wood, who had great ambitions but was busy doing nothing on the set all day, finally had the opportunity to stage a play directed by him. However, this undertaking ended in failure from the very beginning. I heard that producer George Weiss was planning a film called "I Changed Gender", and Ed Wood immediately nominated himself as the director and starring role of the film. Ed tried to persuade the retired...

    The theme of the film is very obvious, that is, sincerely paying tribute to a mediocre generation. The film has a unique charm despite some flaws in the details and role modeling.  (Comment by "Toronto Globe and Mail")
    The content of the film is half real and half fantasy. The overall look is humorous and funny. After watching the movie, people can be unexpectedly moved. (Review of "USA Today")
