Chapter 685： Minor disagreement

Eric wondered: "Why?"

Elizabeth said: "You just didn't say it yourself. Mel Gibson's acting level was very reluctant to get a Golden Globe award. After the Golden Globe nomination was released, the media has been controversial about this matter. Gibson wants the best director, and does not want a best actor nomination to affect his reputation, but in order to improve the attention of "Brave Heart", Harvey still insisted on reporting the best actor for him. ""

Eric suddenly understands that the excellent film such as "Brave Heart" has its reputation. If you continue to speculate in the media, the influence of the movie on the box office will not be too great. At this time, properly provoke some Controversial topics, increasing their media enthusiasm, can play a role in promoting the box office. Mel Gibson’s Golden Globe Award for Best Actor Nomination is undoubtedly the so-called 'controversial topic' selected by Weinstein. Many fans who were not very interested in Brave Heart are often aware of the media. After the argument, in order to find out, perhaps it will save money to buy tickets to enter. At the same time, Miramax has determined that it will not be the best director award for Mel Gibson, and this kind of artificially provoked controversy will not affect the established public relations strategy.

In the original time and space, although the Weinstein brothers were called Oscars, in fact, it is more accurate to call them Oscar businessmen, because the most fundamental purpose of the two brothers to run the Oscars is for the benefit, as long as they can get bigger. Benefits, the two brothers can not only make some public relations awards for films that are not necessarily good enough, but also use some means to confuse the nominations that would have been hopeful for the prizes.

Eric knew that the Golden Globe Awards were just an appetizer and continued to ask: "Are you still nominated for Oscar for the best actor nomination for Mel Gibson?"

Elizabeth nodded, and some helplessly said: "Gibson didn't like Harvey from the beginning. In the filming stage of "Brave Heart", he often complained that Harvey was too arrogant about the filming. I and Joe Ross had to personally take it myself. After mediating, I heard Harvey reported the best actor to Braveheart. He also greeted Harvey as a greedy Jew. Harvey was also mad. Everyone is Australian, I thought there would be More cooperation, we have been trying to make a good relationship with Gibson here. The sign of "Brave Heart" was signed by Dad personally. But after this time, it is very difficult for us to cooperate with him again. Miramax's performance this year. Far more than we expected at the time of the acquisition, we can only choose the latter between Gibson and the Weinstein brothers."

"If you don't cooperate, you won't cooperate. The studios are over-promoting and indulging in the big-name actors. It is still their own."

"You said it's light. Everyone is doing this. If we don't, we won't get a good project. Fox is not a firefly. You, like a chef who opens a restaurant, can even find a chef." I can go out and play the food better than the chef, but we can't do it."

Eric smiled: "Your metaphor is really relevant."

"You have been very leisurely recently. Would you like to come to Fox to help us make a few dishes?"

"Forget it, I am too lazy to even go to my kitchen."

"There is no news of your next film after Jurassic Park. Are you planning to take pictures?"

"Of course not, I am not just taking a Vimy annual big show, but I didn't go to the big screen and released the video tape directly. I heard that it was selling well. Have you seen it yet?"

Elizabeth smiled and nodded: "North America may have 20,000 boxes of sales. If it is a movie, it is likely to be on the top of this year's videotape sales list. The songs inside are really nice, and those little beautiful people, hehe. Hey, you How many sleeps?"

Eric showed his expression of memories, and he said with satisfaction: "Of course, one has never let go, change one every night. Occasionally, there are more than a few people, oh, people like me..."

Eric did not finish, and Elizabeth picked up the nut chocolate from the snack plate on the table and threw it at Eric.

Eric smiled and avoided, seeing the chocolate smashed on the railing and scattered on the edge of the terrace, a look of sadness. Dao: "It’s too mundane to throw food."

Elizabeth lifted her chin: "You bite me."

The two were bickering, suddenly heard a few slight snoring, and turned their heads together. A furry little squirrel probed the brain for a moment, then carefully jumped up and picked up a nut with two front paws. Chocolate, sniffing, immediately ate, noticed that Eric and Elizabeth were watching themselves. Although the little guy did not escape, he also accelerated the speed of eating, and the gang was quickly hired.

Although Beverly Hills is a residential area, the ecological protection is very good. There are all kinds of birds and beasts. The open-air restaurant built on the gentle **** is surrounded by fine shrubs. usually.

Not far from the waiters, I noticed that Eric and Elizabeth’s gaze was attracted by the squirrels on the terrace. I was worried that these little things would cause the unrest of these two big men. I took the initiative to go and want to drive the squirrels away, but I was Rick waved his hand.

"What are you thinking about?" Elizabeth's gaze came back from the little squirrel because of Eric's gesture.

"Nothing, give the little guy a name, what do you think of Scatter?"

Elizabeth's eyes turned a little between the little squirrel and Eric, and her eyes sparkled: "This little guy is what I brought."

Eric smiled and picked up a chocolate and threw it over. He watched the scared little guy shrink and shrink, and soon picked up the chocolate that was bigger than his head, then Turned back to Elizabeth: "Since it is what you brought in, come and brainstorm, I will make a small story randomly."

Elizabeth stared at the edge of the squirrel that had disappeared without a trace, and said intermittently: "Squirrel, chocolate... um, looking for food, winter, human beings..."

Eric smiled and looked at Elizabeth, who was racking her brains. Unconsciously, a story similar to "The Robbery Nut Shop" was almost shaped, but it was definitely a hundred thousand miles away from "Ice Age".

Elizabeth spent ten minutes and came up with a story. Some of them were small and eager to ask what kind of ideas Eric had come up with. An uninvited guest appeared in disappointment.

I just took over the affairs of Sony USA. Because of this mess in Colombia, Howard Stringer has been working at a high load recently. The whole person looks tired, but still shows a portrait of a scholarly and elegant scholar.

Under the guidance of the waiters, I walked to Eric, and Howard Stringer shook hands with Eric and Elizabeth. He smiled and said, "Eric is really taking the liberty, but can I sit down?" ?"

"Of course, please sit down," Eric nodded. Since the other party had already found the door, Eric wouldn't be too inhuman. He told the waiter to give Howard Stringer a cup of coffee before asking. "Howard, what are you looking for?"

Eric did not mean cold, Howard Stringer did not bend around, said: "This is the case, Eric, Colombia received a notice from the flower studio in the morning, intends to cancel the "Museum of the Museum" with us and The contract for the release of "Forrest Gump", I think, this is completely unnecessary, isn't it?"

Howard Stringer directly found himself, and Eric did not push everything to Drew and Amy. "Colombia thinks that the original contract was unreasonable. Everyone gathered well, but I didn't think it. What is wrong with this?"

Howard Stringer said in a gentle tone: "Eric is only a very slight disagreement. Everyone has no need to cancel the cooperation. After all, in the "Mission Imp", the cooperation between Colombia and the flower studio is still Very pleasant."

"Howard, everyone knows that this is the first thing Colombia has picked up. Flower Film does not have the ability to take risks in Colombia. After you object to the contract, Flower Pictures has already begun to prepare for a retreat. Now Going back to Colombia, Flower Pictures will lose faith in new partners, and we can't do that."

Howard Stringer knows that Eric is totally nonsense. If Flower Studio finds new collaborators, such as Fox or MGM, the two companies have already revealed the news to the media. Howard Stringer took a sip of coffee and suddenly shifted the subject and said: "Eric, I just got the news, Sony Records' subsidiary, ve record, just received a firefly's takeover offer, this should be Really?"
