~： Four hundred and ninety-five - don't mix it up

Beginning this morning, Anthony Minghella can be said to have watched a thrilling drama with his own eyes, and for the first time truly saw the most real competition in Hollywood.

As long as you think about Harvey Weinstein's previous confidence and the news that broke out this morning, fools will guess the role of that overbearing and lawless big fat man in this matter.

And he is now very sure that if he changes to another person, he may be concerned about Wayne Greenberg and Warner Bros.'s revenge afterwards, but with Harvey Weinstein's lawless character, let alone Warner Bros., God has come to earth. , the other party will definitely dare to shoot at **** for the immediate benefit.

If there is a choice, Anthony Minghella wants to leave Hollywood and Los Angeles now, even if he does so, he can only be a little director of literary and artistic films in the UK.

Unfortunately, things have begun to ferment now. Even if I leave now, I will still be classified as a vested interest by Warner Bros. It is not meaningful to leave or not. Instead, it is better to stay here and cooperate with Miramax. Public relations activities may be able to win a little gold and the most desired fame and fortune.

"Mr. Weinstein."

After the female secretary's report, Anthony Minghella pushed open the office door, greeted the huge figure sitting behind the desk, pulled out the chair and sat down, as if he hadn't seen the messy newspapers on the table at all. The same, eyes sincerely staring at each other,

"Anthony."

Without any courtesy, Harvey Weinstein crossed his fat palms on the table and said directly: "Miramax has designed a perfect strategy for winning prizes, don't give me any accidents there, You should know how good these jobs are for you."

Anthony Minghella nodded and replied in a low voice, "Yes, I understand."

"As one of the four major Oscar vanes, "The British Patient" is the most certain award, and the BAFTA must not go wrong..."

Now Harvey Weinstein has been able to determine that his tricks work, and Warner Bros. has never issued a statement through the media, which is the best way to prove it.

Keeping the most threatening opponents busy, no time for all the awards season outposts, no time for PR events, is just one thing. On the other hand, it still depends on your own PR plan, and the BAFTA, one of the four major weather vane awards, is Miramax's most important plan to build a sense of presence for "The English Patient".

Not just this one award, Harvey Weinstein has developed a strict plan for the intensive awards ceremony of various sizes in the North American awards season. Among them, the public relations funds alone have prepared six million US dollars, wanting to ensure the maximum When their competitors are devastated by themselves, they will not be stolen by others, and they will not be profited by the fisherman.

At the same time, it's not just Harvey Weinstein who can see the opportunity. The core creators of "Mr. Sweetheart" who had just run a big round of publicity in major cities in North America received an emergency call. After getting off the plane, they did not take a rest and ran directly from Los Angeles International Airport to 10202 West Washington Avenue. , where Sony Columbia Pictures is located.

This movie starring Tom Cruise was cleverly released by Sony Columbia at the beginning of December at the end of the year. With the fierce competition in this summer's season, there is no doubt that Sony Columbia has made a good move. Chess has become one of the last giant production projects that was not beaten to the ground by Warner Bros.

Since the film was released on December 13, it has almost immediately shown a dominance scene in the North American theater market. With Tom Cruise, the number one box office guarantee, after only two weeks, the box office will be gone. It has approached 70 million US dollars, surpassing the production cost line early, and the trend of box office sales is quite obvious.

"Paul, are you sure you're not joking?"

In the office of Sony Columbia's distribution director, Cameron Rock, the film's director and producer, frowned slightly and asked an unbelievable question.

"Of course I'm not kidding."

Distribution director Paul Knight leaned back in his chair with a confident look on his face. "I have my own news channel, and Warner Bros. has tacitly agreed to modify some of the scenes of "The Dark Knight". As the leader of the film, Wayne Greenberg will inevitably miss the entire awards season for the tedious work that follows. Warner Bros.’s award plan for The Departed, it can be said that it is very likely to die from the beginning.”

"I have to say, brilliant method!" Cameron Rock sighed sincerely after learning all the information. "At this point in time, I am afraid that even if those specious things are fake, they will be compared by fans with a magnifying glass after the movie is released. Yes, it is undoubtedly the only option to modify some of the lens performance methods. "

"This is our chance!"

Almost everyone present came up with similar thoughts at the same time. The advantage of "The Departed" is that it is too big. The original plan of the crew and Sony Columbia was only to seek more nominations for the film, but now the situation is obviously different.

"Tom, what do you think?"

Gu Chen The director turned his head to look at the superstar who has been silent all the time. As long as he is a practitioner in this circle, he believes that no one can resist the temptation of the Oscar statuette. The same is true for the young superstar beside him. .

"uh-huh."

It is very rare that Tom Cruise's handsome face did not show any excitement, but shrugged calmly and said, "If there is anything that needs my cooperation, notify my agent Pat. Okay. I came here after getting off the plane. I'm a little tired, you guys continue, I'll go back to rest first."

After speaking, regardless of the stunned people, they stood up without hesitation and walked out of the office until the door closed, and the remaining few looked at each other suspiciously, suppressed their surprise and continued to discuss to let "Mr. Sweetheart" win the award. strategy.

Everyone knows that Tom Cruise's status represents the most scarce resource in the circle. The other party is fully qualified to show anyone's face, and which of these leading superstars is not a bit of a special quirk?

"Tom, don't get involved in this matter, absolutely not."

In a car away from Sony Columbia, agent Pat Kingsley squinted and whispered to his client. She really knows her superstar client too well. Although the other party is arrogant, eccentric, and sometimes talks nonsense to the media, as long as someone keeps reminding her, the other party's mind can still stay awake.

"Your performance in "Mr. Sweetheart" was indeed well received by film critics this time, but Tom, you should know that those old men in the academy will never award you that golden statue!"

Very sad, this is almost certain in advance. Tom Cruise, who is known for his business achievements, has always been unpopular with the academy. They will allow him to be nominated to accumulate points, but they will not take that little gold now. People, awarded to the representative of this "milk stinky school".

And this year's known competitors, politely speaking, all performed no worse than Tom Cruise, and politely speaking, the acting skills of those few are the signs that they are based in Hollywood.

"I see."

Tom Cruise suddenly smiled, as if he didn't take it to heart at all. In fact, as early as two or three years ago, he had already seen through Oscar's attitude. A person who is super top-ranked and can maintain his position all year round, I am afraid that the most important thing is a smart brain.

Even for the Best Actor Oscar nomination prepared for this year, it was Sony Columbia who wanted to take the initiative to publicize for him in order to promote and market the film.

"After the last party, my relationship with Wayne has been good, and I can't afford to go to the troubled waters for Sony Columbia. Pat, do you remember what I said?"

"whet?!"

Pat Kingsley breathed a sigh of relief, but was immediately stunned by the other party's sudden question.

Tom Cruise shook his head gently and said with a smile: "In the summer, I said that Fendi Greenberg needs a godfather, maybe now the opportunity will come."

"But, don't you believe in Scientology..."

Halfway through the words Pat Kingsley immediately closed her mouth tightly, she quickly reacted, some sensitive things, especially the attitude towards Scientology, no one can guess You don't know what your customers think.

Now many people don't understand Tom Cruise's beliefs, and no one can guess why a superstar worth billions is willing to believe in a famous cult. But when more than ten or twenty years have passed, people will find out from the reports in the gossip tabloids that before they know it, this superstar has become one of the top three high-level executives in the sect!

Not to mention the "Mr. Sweetheart" group who rushed back to Los Angeles urgently, Hollywood's sensitive smell is not only Sony Columbia, almost the same day, including the Coen brothers of "Frozen" and Milos Forman of "Xing Book Tycoon" , Scott Hicks of Shining Style, and others who have ambitions for best director, more or less, sooner or later, their eyes lit up at the same time.

To a certain extent, "The Departed", an R-rated film full of blood and violence, with absurd endings and foul language throughout the film, is indeed the most advantageous film at the 69th Academy Awards.

During this year, whether it was the slogan that Wayne shouted in advance, or Warner Bros.' spared no effort to support and prepare for the award, they all put a lot of pressure on the crew of the ambitious heavyweight statuette. At least for now, more than half of this invisible pressure has been removed.
