In January 2020, when announcing their withdrawal from the royal family, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle said in their statement that the two would seek financial independence. Shortly after withdrawing from the royal family, with the royal aura still shining above their heads at that time and the streaming giant's curiosity about the royal family, the Duke and Son of Sussex successfully signed huge production contracts with streaming giants Netflix and Spotify.
Of course, for the original intention of signing the contract, the prince once said in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that the reason why he took the olive branch handed over by Netflix was because he was forced.
Harry's original words roughly meant the following: "Because my father (Charles) cut off our financial resources, I must live on the inheritance left by my mother (Princess Diana)." Without that, we wouldn't have been able to overcome the difficulties we faced when we first arrived in Los Angeles (buying a mansion and settling down). Because I want enough money to feel safe and secure for my family. So I signed a contract with Netflix. It was reported that the big order signed between the runaway prince and the former American actress with Netflix was worth about 75 million pounds (about 700 million yuan).
However, after the successful signing of the contract, when it came to the contract performance stage, the two could not come up with "real materials". The hand of time tickled—more than two years later, Harry and Megan didn't know what they were doing? Anyway, in the statement issued by the two after signing the contract, the East East did not see anything really implemented.
The arrogant and fearless Sussex couple's statement at the time said: "Our lives are independent of each other; as husband and wife, we understand the power of the human spirit: courage, resilience, and the need to sustain feelings." ...... Through our collaborations with diverse communities and their environments to illuminate people and causes around the world, our focus will be on creating content that both informs and inspires hope. ”
"As new parents, it's also important for us to make inspiring family shows, just as it is to tell powerful stories through a real, resonant lens. We're excited to work with the Ted and Netflix teams whose unprecedented reach will help us share impactful content and unlock actions." ”
A large paragraph of "do as you please" has no practical meaning except for "false emptiness". For more than two years, apart from the high-profile announcement in July last year that a so-called animated film "Pearl" project was under development, there was no more than a few words about a project in the execution of this contract. Oh no, some time ago, at the Unconquerable Games in the Netherlands, Harry appeared on camera (Meghan cameo) to track down a documentary + a small love movie.
According to foreign media reports last July, The cartoon that Meghan intends to produce has david Furnish and Carolyn Soper, the husbands of famous British singer Elton John, as well as Emmy award-winning producers Liz Garbus and Dan Cogan as executive producers. The story mainly tells the story of a 12-year-old girl who bravely took a risk. In the process of exploring, the girl was inspired by many influential women in history, and finally discovered her true power, and finally was able to change and save the world.
This persona is actually quite in line with the heroine dream of the Mei gen people. However, on Sunday, May 1, local time, news came that the cartoon had been killed.
According to the latest foreign media reports, because of the sharp decline in user subscriptions, in order to save and reduce costs, Netflix has recently carried out a series of layoffs and project cuts. Unfortunately, among these projects that were killed, Megan's Pearl was one of them. The most ridiculous thing is that nearly a year has passed since the time of announcing the project, and the project is still in the process of being produced after "hard work".
It sounds too funny. Didn't Harry and Meghan have a team? What are these people doing? All right! Megan has higher demands on employees... Ha ha.
Of course, in fact, this can not all blame Megan. After leaving the royal family, the former American actress was busy giving speeches everywhere to "supplement the family", and also had to find "old friends" to complain about the "suffering" and bitter history experienced in the royal family, and even more to confront some tabloids in court... Of course, the most important thing is to "spread the branches" for the Windsor family - to give birth to another great-granddaughter, Lilybert, for the Queen. So many things are too busy to be busy, where there is time to take care of anything else.
On the other hand, Harry was still very weak. Children who have been psychologically injured since childhood also need to spit out the unhappiness and grievances of childhood... Well, this complaint and the burial of injustice have offended the relatives of the royal family. No way, go back and fix it... Therefore, there was a secret visit to the queen in April.
However, no one expected that Harry had just finished visiting his beloved grandmother and was on a show in the blink of an eye... This is really not saved. However, there are also royal experts who have analyzed that even if Harry does too much, his father, Prince Charles, will not really ignore him. When he succeeds to the throne, Harry may still have to return.
It doesn't matter how things will go in the future. But there is a fact that netizens have clearly seen, that is, Harry and Meghan's ability to want "economic independence" really needs to be further examined. As soon as the time was taken by this mirror, the two of them were exposed.
