Chapter 804

Less than an hour after checking out, the hotel checked in again. However, during the Berlin Film Festival, the hotel rooms are always busy and crowded. It is impossible to live in the same room. Fortunately, there are still spare rooms in Grand Hyatt Hotel, which will not make Roy in a hurry.

There were suitcases on the floor of the hall. Roy didn't pay attention to them. He kicked his toes up. The pain made him cry. He had to clench his teeth and stand in place to relax. Andy's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Roy? Are you ok? "

Roy let out a big breath. "It's OK." He kicked his left leg and then limped down on the sofa beside him. "Personally, I think this exchange will be a good thing for lenley, whether it's the film circle or the drama circle. If we can take this opportunity to invite some young filmmakers to London or New York to watch lenley's plays - if lenley can win the role, then it is absolutely good for lenley's reputation. "

In the past two weeks, there has been no further news update for the stage version and the film version of "les miserables". During this period, Langley took part in two auditions, one for the stage version and the other for the film version. The former auditioned for Jean Valjean, while the latter auditioned for Enjolras and Marius. Now we are waiting for further information.

In addition to the works, the reputation and heritage of the actors are also recognized by the industry, as well as the attention of the actors in the same industry.

To some extent, the four films have established a certain industry recognition for lanli, but the number of works is still too small, and the influence of works is still too weak, so it is difficult to become a climate in the end“ "Detached" is an opportunity at the Berlin Film Festival, and Dieter's invitation is another opportunity. In Roy's view, it would be his third chance to take part in the tragic world drama.

Between light and stone, Roy made the most favorable choice for Langley. Just within 120 seconds of receiving Dieter's call, he chose to stay.

"In addition, my personal intuition is that Langley may have a chance in Berlin this year." Roy said meaningfully, then shrugged, "even if not. Lanli is here like a duck to water. "

In just four days, Langley met Jack Gyllenhaal, dietkoslick and Francois orjon; But also with the faithful audience of the Berlin Film Festival. These seemingly useless foreshadowing and accumulation are actually the source basis of fame and reputation.

Roy almost choked on his own saliva and had to take a breath. "What do you think? I just called to cancel the ticket, but if you have any comments, we can discuss it again. "

It's not about buying another ticket, it's about discussing it. The relationship between Roy and Andy is always in a game state, not a partner.

As a manager, Roy unilaterally decided to stay in Berlin; As an agent, Andy has made a plan for deployment in Los Angeles.

Now, there is a conflict between the two people's decision-making directions. They can complete their own communication and reach a consensus, but the final decision is still left to Langley. In the final analysis, Roy and Andy are employed by Langley.

"Where's Lan Li?" Andy pondered for a moment, not anxious to express his opinion, but asked about Lan Li.

"Cinema." Roy pursed the corners of his mouth, not surprised by lanli's choice.

Langley has always been a film lover, and the attraction of the Berlin Film Festival is much stronger than that of the public relations occasions in Los Angeles. So, after Roy briefly explained the situation in the car, Langley did not object, but returned to the Grand Hyatt Hotel again. Otherwise, Langley can ask for a U-turn at any time.

Andy chuckled, "sure enough, it's still lanli." Then, after two seconds of silence, Andy said, "it's OK. Langley will stay in Berlin and come back after the film festival."

Yes, Andy agreed, even without further discussion and argument.

Roy not only did not surprise, but also cleverly sniffed out the unusual, "Andy, what happened?"

"The College Pr thing." Andy has no intention to hide. Even if it's not Roy, he must tell Langley. Otherwise, when Langley returns to the North American continent, he'll be in a hurry and can't fight back. "The Weinstein brothers are just two mad dogs. For the sake of the Oscar, they don't care. That's an eye opener."

There is no complaint and anger, but a smile of ridicule and ridicule, but the hidden ridicule is extremely sharp.

Every year's college public relations are like this, eight immortals cross the sea, each shows his magic power. On the way to xiaojinren, there are many strong players and thorns. No one can know who will win before the finish line.

On the whole, the college public relations of major film companies are aboveboard: holding small film viewing meetings, holding formal parties, holding charity activities, holding brand sponsorship activities, attending Film Critics Association Awards, attending media publicity occasions, distributing free DVDs... It's just all kinds of occasions, and the guest list hides secrets, It's all done through social networking and publicity.

But the Weinstein brothers are an exception. In order to get to the top of Xiaojin people, they often have their own ingenuity and methods.

For example, in 1996, in order to promote the "spring knife" with almost no reputation, they made a list of the retired veteran judges who were "not in Los Angeles, not attending parties", and then personally sent the movie CDs to the door, inviting the judges to watch the work "not to be missed in the award season".

And then, every once in a while, they called and e-mailed, "don't you think Billy Bob Thornton's performance is worth a nomination?" or, "did you notice the lines and the shots of the movie? There's a special meaning here.". Recycle, recycle, until the judges watch the movie and communicate with them.

In the end, "spring knife" completed the counter attack when it missed the Golden Globe Award and the major film critics' associations. It won two nominations for best adapted screenplay and best actor above the Oscars. At the same time, it also pocketed the best adapted screenplay.

Extreme example: last year, dirty water slandered "social networks", from David finch to Alan Sorkin, from Mark Zuckerberg to Eduardo Savarin in real life. All kinds of negative comments, such as criticism, slander and provocation, were heard all over the world, and even David's racist comments were blatant.

Reputation is a very delicate thing: after slander and slander, lies are clarified, but it is extremely difficult to reverse the fixed impression. More importantly, in the process of gossip communication, what people care about is not the truth, but the stimulation and novelty. Therefore, the spread speed of negative news tends to be faster.

Sony Columbia Pictures, the producer and distributor of "social network", clarified the negative rumors as quickly as possible, and Weinstein brothers stopped making waves when they saw the good news, but the impact has been caused. The final result is clear: "the king's speech" overturned the leading "social network".

This year, again.

"In order to push the artists to the top, they are crazy now, and they don't have to do anything about it." Although the words are sharp, Andy's tone is always stable, just understatement about the fact that "they are attacking the four departments of film, director, actor and supporting actress, and now the negative news about Martin Scorsese and Woody Allen has been flying all over the world."

In North America, there are many rumors that woody refuses to retire even though his creative vitality has gradually disappeared; On the other hand, he ridiculed Martin's climbing to the top by virtue of "the infernal Walker", whose strength is not directly proportional to his reputation. It is a false name, and he criticized the defeated Alessandro Gonzalez inarito and Clint Eastwood.

For these two industry leaders, such rumors are just spilling water. They have gone through numerous storms and waves and don't care at all. But the real intention behind the rumor is that they are too old and lifeless to win.

Once public opinion is formed, the competitiveness and combat effectiveness of "Hugo" and "midnight Paris" will decline to a higher level.

"In terms of best actor, they are aiming at lanli." After two simple sentences, Andy gets to the point, "it's been rumored in the industry recently that lanli is so young that he can go to the top smoothly, which is obviously driven by someone behind his back; During last year's award season, Chris Sparling, the screenwriter of "buried alive", sent a self boasting email. Some people suggested that it was directed by Lan Li

"Ridiculous." Roy frowned slightly and blurted out.

Andy did not respond, but went on saying, "more importantly, the outbreak of the email incident led to the whole crew's qualification crisis, but what happened? But Langley has become the youngest actor in history to win an Oscar nomination for his debut Andy is not angry but laughs and gives out a light laugh. "The key is that these rumors do not mention who is the person behind them."

As his thoughts whirled through his mind, Roy suddenly realized.

The focus of these rumors is not on the link between lanli and the e-mail incident, but on the fact that after the incident broke out, lanli walked away and won the nomination.

This sentence successfully killed two birds with one stone: first, there is a direct relationship between the concealed shooting of blue gift and the mail incident; Second, the person behind Lan Li. But there is no real handle left. It's just a matter of shadow. On the contrary, it's more and more elusive.

None of the rumors mentioned names, but the spearheads were directed at Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.

The trick is that if the names of the two bigwigs are mentioned, it will be nothing. George Clooney has taken the initiative to support each other in the college's public relations for Jean Dujardin this year; However, the rumor has not been mentioned, which obviously implies that there is something fishy behind it.

What's more, no matter Langley or Tom and Steven, they can't stand up and explain their innocence, otherwise they will not admit themselves; And it's a direct reflection of people's speculation.

Brilliant, really brilliant. The Weinstein brothers used only one rumor, which immediately put Langley in trouble. But is that all?
