Universal Studios Hollywood is located in the northwest suburb of downtown Los Angeles. At the beginning of the 20th century, filmmakers discovered the ideal natural environment for filming here, and then concentrated here one after another, making this land gradually become a world-famous cinema. 1908, Hollywood produced one of the earliest feature films, The Life and Hatred of Monte Cristo. From 19 12, production companies were established one after another, and to 1928, a lineup of film companies headed by Paramount and other "eight major film companies" was formed. The 1930s and 1940s were the heyday of Hollywood, which produced a large number of excellent films that became masterpieces in film history, making American films influential all over the world.

At the same time, Hollywood has also developed into the cultural center of the United States, with many writers, musicians, movie stars and so on. After World War II, studios moved out one after another, and many shooting facilities were idle or handed over to TV producers. In the early 1960s, Hollywood became the main production base of American TV programs.
