The trend of the 15th Gotham Awards continues to expand its influence, and the moment for the rise of ** movies has finally come. "Little Sunshine" has received such unexpected attention, and it is generally believed that it is one of the inevitable results after Oscar's change of dynasty.

In June of this year, Frank Pearson, who had served two consecutive terms as the head of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, officially announced the end of his career as chairman. In the general election, the competition between the old school and the new school is particularly fierce. In the end, Sid Ganis, the representative of the neutral faction, won and became the new head of the academy!

It is not difficult for Sid Ganis to put the name "Neutral" on him. He is a representative of the new faction, but this veteran has served as a director of the academy for 21 years. , but is a fusion character. He can not only understand the persistence of the old-fashioned forces, but also join the innovation of the new-school forces. Therefore, even if he is a representative of the new-school forces who favor adventure and individuality, he finally persuaded the old-school forces to compromise and vote for him. One vote made Sid Ganis the new president of the academy.

Three years ago, Evan Bell once refused to attend the Oscars because of his anti-war policy, which sparked heated discussions. Sid Ganis has implicitly expressed his support for Evan Bell in public. Later, when Evan Bell performed the musical "Nine" on Broadway, Sid Ganis also came to the scene many times to express his solidarity with Evan Bell. It can be said that among the new generation of artists, Sid Ganis has always paid close attention to the new forces represented by Evan Bell.

Before that, Evan Bell's relationship with the academy has been very stalemate. Even if he has received a lot of nominations, he has never been able to win. The best picture for "Crash" belongs to the entire crew. Now, after Sid Ganis came to power, the media also generally believe that this is an intersection between the academic faction and the new generation of forces represented by Evan Bell. In the future. The stalemate between Evan Bell and the academics will definitely be eased. As long as Evan Bell can produce enough good works, then the Oscar statuette is indeed getting closer.

This year's North American film industry is indeed turbulent, and the "Brokeback Mountain" homosexual theme turned out. Although the film has not yet been officially released, the frenzy it has set off in Venice and Toronto has proved that the film has won recognition in both the professional and public fields. Rise, in the history of the Oscars, the movies produced by the real ** label have not been strongly recognized, and even the shocking "Citizen Kane" that year has not won a golden man, even today. "Citizen Kane" holds the first place in classic works in various movie lists, but the regret of the golden man will always be attached to the back of the movie introduction.

The precursor to this kind of storm is also considered to be a change that will inevitably be caused by the change of dynasties in the academy. For works on the borderline of homosexuality, as well as pornographic films that have always been praised and not popular, what attitude the academy will uphold has become a concern. focus.

Now, awards season has kicked off with the Gotham Awards. In the next four months, whether the film industry will usher in a new atmosphere after the change of dynasties, or will it stick to the traditional rules. Let's wait and see. And what attitude will the academics labelled as Sid Ganis have towards these rebellious works one after another, which will inevitably have a huge impact on the decisions of producers in the future film industry.

The influence of the Gotham Awards continues, and the 2005 awards season kicked off with an unprecedented buzz. And the Gotham Awards have only ended in less than three days, and the excitement of the film industry has also continued to the music industry, because the ticket sales of Evan Bell's "first" world tour are about to kick off, which focuses on countless The focus of fans, and the media have to focus their attention. Because they are very curious, as Evan Bell's first career tour concert, what is the attendance rate, what is the attention, and what is the reaction of fans.

After the official media of the "first" world tour was determined to be Facebook and uTube, the media realized. Evan Bell's application of the online world is amazing, first the commercialization of digital music, then social networking sites, then video sharing sites, and now Evan Bell has raised online media to the point where it can be compared with traditional media . This is the first time in history that a concert has positioned the cooperative media as online media, which also marks that after the rapid development of blogs following the September 11 Incident in 2001, after the development of the past four years, online media has officially merged with print media. , TV media go hand in hand, becoming a media organization that cannot be ignored.

On November 16, Eleven Studio and Temajet Ticketing announced that all tickets for the "First Time" World Tour will be sold online. This undoubtedly further connects the online world with the real world.

When Pizza Hut's pepperoni pizza became the first item to be retailed online in 1994, Amazon came into the limelight and quickly became the leader in online shopping. The development of online shopping in 2005 has been integrated into people's lives. According to statistics, the total online sales this year has exceeded 25 billion US dollars. It can be seen that today's online shopping has become a normal part of people's lives.

Since 2002, there have been concerts that have adopted the method of online ticketing, but most of the concerts are sold online and offline. This time, Eleven Studio announced that the ticket business of the "first" world tour will be sold online throughout the entire process, which is also the first time in history.

However, it is not surprising to people that Evan Bell's close connection with the online world has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. However, whether the whole process of online ticketing can guarantee the formality of the ticketing system, avoid the appearance of scalpers, and the appearance of fake tickets, are all unknowns. Only after the official opening of ticketing can we get the answer.

At 0:00 on November 20th, the official website of Temajet Ticketing was updated to the main page. The promotion page of the "First Time" World Tour took up one-third of the space on the front page. On the top of the page, a huge Arabic numeral "1" is on the right side of the screen. The inside of this number looks like an upside-down guitar. Unlike the official logo of Eleven Studio, this number and the guitar inside are gorgeous. a lot, creating a dark gold display effect. And on the left is a huge "first time" cursive font with the words "Evan Bell, start the tour with you" below. Simple and clear, the black and gold interlaced style creates a low-key and gorgeous effect, which instantly attracts everyone's attention.

After clicking to enter the page, you can see that the ticketing system is temporarily unavailable, and the ticketing function will be officially opened at 9:00 am.

William Wood came to the company early in the morning, and opened the Temajet ticketing page early, and then began to refresh it from time to time. William Wood's colleague Ben Danny came over, holding a cup of refreshing coffee in his hand, and said with a smile, "William, online ticket sales start today?"

William Wood nodded, and his face was a little tired. There are many occupations that are not divided into weekends and weekdays. Reporters can be regarded as one, especially entertainment reporters. But he has long been used to it. "If you sell tickets online, it is estimated that the rush for tickets will be very powerful, and I don't know what the situation will be." Because this time all tickets will be sold online, which is unprecedented, so William -Wood also has no reference, and naturally doesn't know how the situation will be.

"How long do you think it will be sold?" asked Ben Danny, leaning against his desk, stirring coffee.

"I don't know, I remember that the garden's concert sales record is twenty-seven minutes, right? If it's sold on the Internet, it's half the time?" William Wood habitually swiped the page again. At this time, it was 8:4 At fifteen minutes, it was getting closer and closer to nine o'clock, and his heartbeat started to speed up involuntarily.

"Che, you also underestimate the speed of online ticket sales." Ben Danny directly rejected it without giving face I think a third of the time is about the same. "

"Nine minutes?" William Wood thought for a while, because this time the sale was for two days of December 9th and 10th, with a total of 40,000 tickets, and he nodded in agreement, "It is indeed very possible."

"Have you two forgotten your guts in Hudson's Bay? Online ticket sales must be much faster." Another reporter from "Entertainment Weekly" Angelina Joan walked over with a face With contemptuous eyes, "I guess five minutes."

"What five minutes?" The other two or three also gathered around at the same time, Angelina-Joan didn't give the two men a chance to explain, and said directly, "They think Evan's 'first' tour Tickets for the meeting will be sold in nine minutes, I said five minutes."

The people next to him laughed, "William, Ben, you two men don't have the guts of Angie or a woman. Five minutes, this is absolute." It seems that everyone has infinite confidence in Evan Bell. Of course, this is "Entertainment Weekly", which is sent by Evan Bell. Naturally, if it was changed to "Premier", "Globe", etc., it is estimated that the tickets will not be sold out at all, and there will be more For the rest, it is best if the attendance rate is less than 50%, and that is called joy. Still, even "Premier" Elliott Carter knew that wasn't possible.

"Would you like to bet, I'll bet for five minutes." Angelina-Joan looked at the two men and said with a smile, and the people around were booing, "I bet for six minutes", "I bet for eight minutes" "…
