A year ago today, I felt the weight of the world on my shoulders, and it seemed like everything was pointless and impossible. A very lovely and wonderful human scooped me up onto a rooftop, where we just happened to catch the peak of the Perseids meteor shower. I know. It's ridiculous. True story, though.
一年前的今天,我正卡在一個低潮漩渦而生命中的一切感覺起來既沒有意義又不可達成。一個可愛又美好的人就帶我去屋頂看夜景散心,結果竟然剛好遇到一年一度的英仙座流星雨。對,我知道很扯,我的人生是一齣八點檔。
This is a beautiful song by the amazing Brazilian artist Gilberto Gil, so I was initially very stressed about doing the song justice, but eventually the process actually became very peaceful for me. So here's the final product.
這首歌是巴西樂手吉貝托·吉爾超級美的一首作品,所以在摸索這個翻唱的過程中其實壓力很大,因為完全不知道自己能不能勝任一切的音樂跟意境。不過後來發現過程變成一種冥想,而這就是結晶。
3 vocal layers, 3 flute layers, 4 guitar layers, 4 percussion layers, and 1 ambient sound layer. Way too many hours of animating and deleting and re-animating and editing and video work. 1 photo that was my core inspiration and my happy place.
3軌人聲合音、3軌長笛合音、4軌吉他、4軌打擊跟1軌環境聲音。也花了超多小時畫動畫、刪掉、再重新畫動畫、編輯跟剪片。1張為我帶來無數平靜也是靈感主軸的照片。
Sending out nothing vibes of love, beauty, and light to everyone. Please remember the world is not as heavy as it seems.
在此傳送充滿著愛心、美麗與光環的能量給大家。請記得其實世界並沒有那麼的沈重。

#葉郎每日讀報 #娛樂產業國際要聞揀1加2條
│半路殺出程咬金!黑石集團搶在 Apple 之前買下 Reese Witherspoon 的製片公司 Hello Sunshine │
• 今天的大消息是幾天才才傳出有意出售的女星 Reese Witherspoon 的製片公司 Hello Sunshine ,已經確定由 Blackstone Group 黑石集團透過一家新成立的公司買下絕大多數股份。該公司原本的股東(包含 AT&T)的股份將被黑石以大約5億現金買下,只剩下 Witherspoon 本人留下大約 18%左右的股份。媒體估計這次交易至少使 Witherspoon 入帳1.2億美元。Forbes 在今天的報導中預估 Witherspoon 身價因此提高到4億美元,並稱她是「世界上最富有的女演員」。
• 這家成立才5年的製片公司因為專注在串流節目的開發,因而在串流大戰的時代衝出8億多美元的驚人估值。Hello Sunshine 絕對是串流大戰中的經典成功案例。而這一切的起點其實非常簡單:Reese Witherspoon 無法忍受好萊塢始終給她無關緊要的花瓶角色,認為必須跳下來主導一個專門為女性觀眾和女性演員服務的製片公司。許多好萊塢明星都試過類似的策略(比如 Sandra Bullock 的 Fortis Films 或是 Brad Pitt 的 Plan B),但從來沒有人像 Witherspoon 的生意這麼成功。一開始 Hello Sunshine 主要都是處理 Reese Witherspoon 主演的電影(如:《Wild 那時候,我只剩下勇敢》或是原本要主演的電影(如:《Gone Girl 控制》)。然而 Hello Sunshine 的業務很快就擴張至電視和串流節目之上,並陸續製作 HBO 的熱門節目《美麗心計》 、Apple TV+ 的開台招牌節目 《The Moring Show 晨間直播秀》和Hulu 平台上廣受歡迎的節目《星星之火》。目前也還有 Netflix 和 Amazon 的節目正在製作中。
• 值得注意的是原本就與 Hello Sunshine 有密切合作關係的 Apple 其實是最有興趣併購該公司的人。上週的媒體報導中就有消息來源指出 Apple 確實正在跟 Hello Sunshine 就併購一事展開討論。坐擁千億美元現今的 Apple 一直被猜測遲早會出手併購好萊塢企業來改善目前落後的 Apple TV+ 串流業務。然後每一次的猜測總會落空,節制的 Tim Cook 始終沒有出手。他的理由可能是眼前雖然好萊塢併購熱潮正興起,但政策環境對 Apple 這樣的科技公司來說並不算太友善。Biden 政府先後推出新的反壟斷法令和討厭 Amazon 的FTC 聯邦貿易委員會主席 Lina Khan 和討厭 Google 的司法部助理部長 Jonathan Kanter。Tim Cook 可能至少要等美國政府對「Amazon 併購 MGM」和「WarnerMedia 與 Discovery 合併」這兩起併購案明確表態之後,才會放心進行比較大型的好萊塢企業併購。
• 如果 Reese Witherspoon 是今天的併購大新聞女主角,男主角將是這兩位來自 Disney 的重量級畢業生:Disney 前營運長 Thomas Staggs 以及原本在 Disney 主管 DTC和國際業務的 Kevin Mayer。他們正是整起交易幕後的推手,也將被黑石集團派到新公司擔任共同執行長。
• Kevin Mayer 原本會是地球上最成功的娛樂媒體集團專業經理人 Bob Iger 呼聲最高的接班人選。從 Miramax、Lucasfilm、Pixar、Marvel 到 Fox 的併購都有 Mayer 的身影,更別提如今整個 Disney 未來命脈所在的 Disney+ 正是他一手主導開發。然而去年初 Bob Iger 在一片錯愕聲中將 Disney 執行長的位置交給了主管主題樂園業務的 Bob Chapek,逼使 Kevin Mayer 黯然離開 Disney(後來曾短暫擔任 TikTok 執行長3個月)。
• 早先的新聞傳出 Kevin Mayer 和他的前同事 Thomas Staggs 組了一個 SPAC 特殊目的收購公司,正在到處尋找適合收購的媒體公司。今天的併購新聞進一步透露了這兩位畢業生野心勃勃的更大計畫(對 Kevin Mayer 來說則是他對 沒繼承到的 Disney 帝國的王子復仇記計畫):首先是他們似乎跳過 SPAC 特殊目的收購公司,因為黑石集團直接給了20億美元讓他們帶去市場上買菜。而且 Hello Sunshine 只是他們加入購物車的第一筆訂單,根據 Variety 報導他們也在評估購買 NBA 球星 LeBron James 的製片公司 SpringHill 和導演 Ron Howard 的 Imagine Entertainment。後兩者也都曾傳出可能是 Apple 併購的潛在對象。
• 彭博新聞提醒這則併購消息應該與昨天另外一個黑石集團的房地產投資消息一起看:黑石集團與房地產投資商 Hudson Pacific 合作買下倫敦北邊大約 36.8萬平方公尺的土地,將用來興建新的 Sunset Studios 攝影棚的倫敦新棚。串流大戰造成全球劇組大爆發,在歐洲影視拍攝重鎮倫敦投資攝影棚當然是穩賺不賠的生意。在此同時如果把攝影棚、製片公司或許再加上發行或是串流業務串接在一起,黑石似乎隱隱約約拼湊出一個更大的圖像:他們是在透過 Kevin Mayer 和 Thomas Staggs 這隊 Disney 退伍老兵打造一個串流時代的新超級片廠嗎?

Introducing the new kid at Parkway Hawker Centre — Mee Sua Geng (面线羹). Opened in mid-October 2020, they served authentic Taiwanese food.
The Oyster Mee Sua, which came in a very generous portion, was topped with black fungus, shimeiji mushroom and some shredded chicken. The oysters were fresh, fat and juicy! The mee sua was firm and not easily broken when scooped up, despite being immersed in the geng (羹, a thick soup or broth). The Chicken Cutlet Set comes with a huge piece of chicken cutlet and a bowl of mee sua with the basic toppings of black fungus and mushroom. The chicken comes in two flavours — original or with chilli powder. It was not too spicy or salty and the crunch was just right.

The Denver Nuggets have survived long enough without Carmelo Anthony. Now, they can't wait to see how their risky "experiment" works.
Allen Iverson banked in a running 3-pointer in overtime and scored 36 points to rally Denver to a 121-113 victory over the Houston Rockets on Saturday night in the Nuggets' final game without Anthony.
Iverson also had 10 assists, finding Steve Blake in the corner for a 3-pointer with 1:36 left in overtime.
Marcus Camby also had a basket in overtime, scored 12 points and grabbed 22 rebounds for the Nuggets, who went 7-8 in the 15 games Anthony was suspended after fighting in a Dec. 16 game against New York.
"We've survived the 15-game suspension," coach George Karl said. "Now, we've got a 15-game experiment before the All-Star break. And I think everyone's excited about it."
Anthony, who was leading the NBA with 31.6 points per game before his suspension, would've returned for Saturday's game until a snowstorm postponed the Nuggets' Dec. 20 game against Phoenix. He'll be available for Monday's game against Memphis.
"Monday, I get to wake up and it's Christmas," Iverson said with a smile. "Obviously, it's going to be a fun day."
The four-time scoring champion and seven-time All-Star wanted to leave Philadelphia and play for a contender. With Anthony and J.R. Smith back from suspensions, the newly acquired Blake contributing already and Camby playing well, Iverson thinks the Nuggets can make a deep playoff run.
"For me, at this stage of my career, it's just championships. That's all I think about," Iverson said. "Regardless of where we're seeded, we get in a seven-game series with somebody, it's going to be hard for somebody to beat us four times."
Smith, who was suspended 10 games for his role in the New York brawl, scored 24 for Denver. He hit three 3-pointers in the fourth quarter after the Rockets had taken a 90-77 lead.
Blake, acquired a week ago in a trade with Milwaukee, had 12 points, four assists and five rebounds.
"'Melo will add a different dimension to our team and take us to another level," Blake said. "It's about time. We are glad he's coming back."
With Anthony returning, it's up to Karl to figure out how all the pieces fit together.
"We have 15 games before the All-Star break," Karl said. "I have a very good feeling that toward the end of those 15 games, you're going to see us playing pretty special basketball."
The Rockets had won their previous eight home games this season when they reach 100 points.
But Iverson was fouled on a 3-pointer with 2:37 left and hit all three free throws to pull the Nuggets to within 108-103. Camby scored before Iverson swished a 3-pointer from the wing with 1:02 to go to tie the game.
Iverson and Tracy McGrady both missed potential game winners in the final minute. The Nuggets had a chance to win it in the closing seconds of regulation, but Camby missed an unlikely 3-pointer at the buzzer. Camby is 0-for-2 from 3-point range this season.
Both teams struggled at the start of overtime, but Iverson scooped up a loose ball near midcourt, ran to the 3-point line and banked in a 3-pointer just before the shot clock expired to give Denver the lead for good.
"That was a momentum shot," Iverson said. "A lot of times, you want to hit that first basket to see how the other teams respond."
McGrady scored 24 and Juwan Howard added 21 points and 13 rebounds for the Rockets, who've lost three in a row since winning nine of their previous 10.
"We need to get back to doing what got us playing well the last couple of weeks, when we went on that great winning streak," McGrady said. "It was just a game where, if we wanted to play like this, we should have stayed at home."
The Rockets lead the league in scoring defense, but they've allowed at least 100 points in their last four games.
"The last four games defensively, we're not willing to do what it takes to win," said Houston coach Jeff Van Gundy. "We got exactly what we deserved. They got what they deserved because they worked. And we got what we deserved because we didn't."
Dikembe Mutombo grabbed 13 rebounds for the Rockets, who dropped to 9-5 since Yao Ming broke a bone under his right knee.
The Nuggets are 6-8 since acquiring Iverson on Dec. 22. Despite the absence of Anthony -- and thanks mostly to Iverson -- Denver is still in second place in the Northwest Division.
Iverson had eight points in the first quarter, but the Nuggets trailed 31-25. He came out for a short rest early in the second quarter and Rafer Alston, the man he was guarding, promptly sank back-to-back 3-pointers to push Houston's lead past 10.
Denver trailed 46-33 when Iverson returned with 7:53 left in the half. He was 5-of-6 in the second quarter and had 20 points at the break, but the Rockets led 58-53.
The Rockets led by 13 early in the fourth quarter, but went 11-for-30 in the period to lose for only the fourth time in 43 home games under Van Gundy when they hit 100 points.
