general background introduction of "Another Wall Street" is:
DiCaprio will play Long Island stock broker Belfort in the film. He refused to cooperate with the police in a large-scale securities fraud case in the 1990s. Cooperation and imprisonment for 20 months.
Belfort, who was hailed as the "Robin Hood in the stock market" by Forbes magazine at the age of 30, made a fortune by walking on the edge of the law and even breaking the law, creating a miracle of making $12 million in three minutes. In 1997, his company, Stratton Oakmont, was delisted by the National Association of Securities Dealers for defrauding customers. He himself was charged with fraud by the federal government and was sent to prison.
The fraud case involved extensive corruption on Wall Street and commercial banks including gangs infiltrated. Like DiCaprio’s previous "Cat and Mouse Game", there will be two protagonists in "The Wolf of Wall Street" — the majority of the film’s storyline will fall on Belfort and a person who wants to take it from him. On the relationship with the FBI agent who was inside.
"The Wolf of Wall Street" is not so much an autobiography as it is a wonderful novel. It is worth mentioning that this fraud case revealed many ulterior secrets behind Wall Street and involved a large number of corruption cases of the boss behind the scenes.
I myself saw that in the film, DiCaprio used his best, best, and best acting skills to interpret a slightly bad script into a so-called Wall Street ugly drama in the late 1980s!
Of course, before making money is the kingly criterion, the characters in the play are temporarily labeled "wolves"!
After reading it, I feel that the directors did not want to describe the large-scale securities fraud case clearly, nor did they want to understand the essence of them. Instead, they spared no effort to exaggerate the beauties, yachts, orgy, drug abuse, and drug use. Is it because of the real needs of the actors?
Well, director, you won. You used your own scripts filled with water to play the so-called securities sales (pink orders?) filled with telemarketing, fake accounts, etc., as a member of Wall Street.
You won and completed the protection of Wall Street, because what you mocked is illegal securities sales, it's just a pyramid scheme!
Of course, regardless of Wall Street or illegal pyramid schemes, two points are pointed out at the end of the film:
1. No matter how you get money, but as long as you have money, your life in prison will still be splendid;
2. They are two types, At all times, without squeezing blood and sweat from the lowest level of all beings, the straw is cut one after another, seemingly endless!
Because this is in America!
