~： Four hundred and ninety-four - life lies in choice

In Bruce Rosenblum's perception, Wayne Comeback is not a good-natured man willing to be at the mercy of others. As an absolute genius in an industry, he usually has some quirks and temperaments. He was afraid that the other party would not be willing to bow his head temporarily and focus on the Dark Knight in his hand.

"Don't worry, Bruce."

Wayne responded with a hint. "I'll settle this matter perfectly."

In fact, it is too early to take action now. He needs to observe the degree and influence of the fermentation of public opinion tomorrow, and make a decision after seeing everything clearly.

"That's it for today. I'll go back and think about it. I'll go to the company tomorrow morning, and then we'll discuss the influence of public opinion and then discuss how to deal with it."

Seeing Nina pushing open the door with her briefcase, Wayne nodded to the Warner Bros. distribution executive who wanted to say something, ready to end the conversation.

"That's it."

Bruce Rosenblum shook his head, sighed secretly, and said again before leaving: "With the media promotion advantages of Warner Bros. and the parent company Time Warner, plus we have sufficient public relations funds, in fact, even if You don't participate in the whole awards season, and the probability of winning is not low, is it?"

"Hey, stop comforting me, man."

Funny stood up and hugged each other, Wayne waved his hand, and said dumbfoundedly: "Even if we are fully prepared, in fact, if I don't show enough fighting attitude, the academy will still choose to ignore it, won't it? "

Bruce Rosenblum shrugged awkwardly, turned around and nodded with the assistant lady, left the office, and walked out of the studio.

As we all know, the attitude of the academy has always been to encourage competition. A film or a person who wants to win an award must at least show enough attention. How to show it? So the work of the public relations company or the public relations team comes.

In fact, even in the past ten or twenty years, the Academy has always acquiesced in the existence of public relations and lobbying, and is still encouraging it secretly, because in the hearts of those Academy members, this is the greatest respect for Oscar's authority and rarity.

As long as the public relations measures are not excessive, there will be basically no warnings, which is the main reason why Harvey Weinstein probes the bottom line of the academy again and again, and pulls the bottom line even lower again and again.

On the contrary, even if a film has a good reputation, the academy agrees with its values, but as long as the participants do not show the attitude of striving for hard work and adopt the method of going with the flow, they will also not get the honor they deserve, and they will definitely not get it. Those old men will never give the golden statuette to someone who doesn't value the authority of the Oscars.

"boss?"

Helping Wayne pack his belongings, while the two walked out of the studio, Nina tilted her head and uttered a question.

"No hurry, talk to the car."

From the time he got on the tram, until he changed to his own car, and the Rolls-Royce Phantom started smoothly, Wayne broke the silence and told the news brought by Bruce Rosenblum, as well as his own analysis.

Hearing this, Nina didn't help to think of a solution for the first time. She knew very well that when it comes to everything related to movies, her boss is the expert among the experts. Instead, he took out a phone that was not often used from his briefcase, and dialed a few numbers silently.

The car was kept quiet for a short time. The other end of the phone was picked up. Nina habitually covered her mobile phone and whispered, "Hello, Mr. Pellicano, my boss has something to do. need your help."

That's right, the first person Nina thought of was the famous Hollywood Eye, Anthony Pellicano, the sharpest private detective in the shadows of the entertainment industry.

As early as a few years ago, there have been infrequent but very close exchanges and cooperation between the two parties. The main person in charge of maintaining this relationship is Nina. Things cannot be avoided at all, but with such a relationship, at least a lot of things can be done in mind.

As long as he chooses to stand in front of the stage and work for a day, basically breaking things cannot be avoided. Unless he is willing to completely retreat behind the scenes and exist as a capitalist like the boss of a film company, no one can guarantee that he can escape all conspiracies. .

"Boss, within a week, he will target the most suspicious person."

After a while, Nina put down the phone and stuffed it back into her briefcase while reporting.

Wayne closed his eyes instead, leaned back in the back seat and began to close his eyes. "I basically have suspects now. This kind of trick is not something ordinary people will play."

How should I put it, when Bruce Rosenblum just finished speaking the news, he had already narrowed the scope to a few people. Coupled with his own analysis, there is a high probability that the other party deliberately let Warner Bros. get the news ahead of time. All these signs made him think of the famous Oscar shitposter, Harvey Weinstein, for the first time.

[In other words, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books at present, Mimi Read, install the latest version. 】

Obviously, if all guesses are correct, the fat man has indeed seen through human nature, and at the same time part of his character, and is deeply certain that he will definitely choose the huge interests at hand.

"Do you want me to keep busy all the time?!" Wayne muttered to himself, full of sarcasm.

Time flies, and early the next morning, a controversial report appeared on all kinds of second- and third-tier newspapers, as well as local newspapers in major cities in North America.

It only took one morning, like dropping a bomb of public opinion. The popularity of "The Dark Knight" has always been very high. From the beginning of the project, there is not much specific information about the film that has been revealed. Except for the appearance of some vague characters, there is almost no accurate information from the crew.

This has also led to the mystery of "The Dark Knight" all the way up, and at the same time pulled the curiosity of the public to the top , this film can be called the most anticipated masterpiece by North American movie fans in 1997.

Warner Bros. is also happy to see that the suspense is constantly being pulled up. The fans who are looking forward to "The Dark Knight" are not only fans of the previous Batman, but also fans of Wayne and several leading actors. They also joined the "Joker" of the year. large supporters.

In any case, the movie-watching storm that "Joker" blew up in that year is by no means comparable to "The Hour of War". The kind of incitement played out in a special social background can be said to be the best movie in history, and there has never been such a movie. A successful film can have as much impact on society as "Joker".

Seeing that "The Dark Knight" is entering post-production, more and more fans are looking forward to the film. Warner Bros. is also releasing some information and posters from time to time. Every special character that is released will attract considerable attention. A little bit of decryption guesses that "The Dark Knight" has formed a special trend among young people for a while.

The orderly marketing and promotion of Warner Bros.'s distribution department has always followed its own rhythm. If this continues, by the end of April and early May next year, it will increase its publicity efforts in one go, and make the last wave of grand publicity for the release of the film.

But all of this was interrupted by the reports that appeared this morning. Many authoritative media have their own industry standards, and did not follow the trend to report these speculative things. As soon as the news came out, everyone was waiting for Warner Bros.'s reaction. , want to know the authenticity of those things, in the end how much.

Unusually, in the face of Hollywood's most serious accident, Warner Bros. fell into silence abnormally. It was not like the reaction speed of a media group at all. It did not immediately hold a press conference to deny the reports, nor condemn the various media. For a while, no one could figure out what was going on.

"According to the information obtained by this newspaper from a special channel, the approximate story of "Batman: The Dark Knight" will unfold between the Joker and Batman, and the timeline can definitely be..."

"Gotham is in crisis again, and the Joker begins a gorgeous performance! This time he will no longer be the tragic character with a kind heart. The Joker has his own ideas..."

"The Joker has said everything that should be said and should not be said, and Batman has done everything that should be done and should not be done. Life and choice, the era of heroes is over?"

The time is getting closer to noonIn an office in Century City, Harvey Weinstein, a tall and fat man, sat at his desk and flipped through newspaper after newspaper, but there was no sign on his face. excitement.

If he had a choice, he would definitely not use this method against the young man, because he knew that the young man was almost the same as his own way of doing things, even more than his vision and cruelty, and sometimes even more crazy.

But since someone has provided ammunition that is beneficial to him, he will not hesitate a little bit. In comparison, the best result of this is that the other party urgently recalls the disbanded crew and revises some of the leaked content. In fact, The final impact on "The Dark Knight" is by no means as big as imagined.

That's right, he did this on purpose. Even some of the contents that have been leaked have been strictly selected by him and will not affect the main line and concept of the movie too much.

Harvey Weinstein deeply understands that there has never been an inextricable hatred and eternal opponent in this circle. As long as the interests of both parties are consistent, the enemy who killed his father can also sit down and have fun, even he has already thought about it. The way to make up for the relationship between the two sides, since the other party who harmed them lost an awards season, then they would end up in person in the future and help the other party’s public relations for an awards season for free.

"Jingle Bell."

The phone on the column rang suddenly, and Harvey Weinstein dropped the newspaper in his hand, as if he had no interest in the "exclusive leaks" above. In fact, he had already memorized those contents.

The phone was picked up, and the secretary's sweet voice came from the microphone. "Mr. Weinstein, Director Minghella has arrived, shall we let him in now?"
