Extraordinary Genius - Chapter 2038
New York’s stormy Empire State Building, Feng Yu’s office, a group of people are celebrating.
“Carmelon, congratulations, the Golden Globe is called the Oscar’s vane. It seems that you want to get the Oscars!” said MGM’s CEO Schmitz.
“Thank you also for your vision, willing to invest so much in my life, and fully support my work. Of course, the most grateful to you is Mr. Feng.”
Cameron also felt that he had to be the best director of Oscar, and his face was full of pride. Whether it is box office or word of mouth, his “Avatar” is very good, even the box office has created a historical record, breaking the history of his own “Titanic”.
Such a box office is also worthy of Feng Yu’s high investment.
It is expected that three sequels will be filmed in the future, and the total investment may exceed one billion US dollars. Just the first investment, how many people were shocked by the chin, but Feng Yu gave it without hesitation. Counting the cost of the declaration, it exceeded $300 million. Compared with the box office return, it is really profitable.
“James, on the Oscar, you have a strong enemy, that is your ex-wife, Catherine Bigelow. You should pay attention to her side, because that is likely to be cold.”
“The Hurt Locker” is another movie that promotes the values of the country, or the shooting technique is similar to a documentary, which is very boring. The movie box office is more than 20 million US dollars. The world is not comparable to the “Avatar” one day, and the capital can’t come back.
Cameron’s disdain: “Mr. Feng, the movie didn’t look at it. What did she shoot, would anyone like to go to the cinema to see something like a documentary? And there are many loopholes in it, and the director is very amateur. Look, how many people in the country are anti-war, and her shooting is simply a mistake.”
Kirilenko nodded madly: “Yes, it is simply a fabricated story, a piece of fig leaf for their war.”
Kirilenko looked at Cameron more and more pleasingly. I didn’t expect this rice country to be so disgusted with the practice of the country. If it is in Russia, no matter who he is, he is 100% support. The patriotism of the people of the country is too Worse!
“James, isn’t Oscar’s preference for the feature film you still don’t understand? The science fiction class is never popular, this is the law. The “Star Wars” defeated, “ET” lost, which proves this. And stop you The biggest reason for winning the prize is that you are the signing director of MGM. The film was released by MGM and created a box office record!”
Cameron thought for a moment and understood what Feng Yu meant. The smile on his face slowly disappeared.
Kirilenko is confused, what are you talking about? He took Feng Yu: “Feng, what are you talking about? Is MGM not the best film company in the world? The box office is the highest, but still can’t get the prize? I see the media saying that James wants to copy the miracle of the shipwreck. what.”
Feng Yu put down the champagne: “Chi brother, you think about it, since I acquired MGM, MGM has dominated the movie box office of the country for years, even the world box office.”
“And before I saw MGM, who was going bankrupt, I was revitalized in my hands. Now I have not only owed debts, but I have begun to make a profit, and I have spent billions of dollars on assets. How long did it take? ?”
“We have turned from the last to the first, the number is the first, the speed is fast, what will other film companies think? Their interests, have we been robbed?”
“And those who voted for Oscar have too many academics, as well as people from major film companies. Who wants to see James take the prize? Or see “Avatar” winning?”
“Our head is too strong, and things are extremely counter-productive. And James has a big disadvantage, that is, his ex-wife is a woman, and no female director has ever won this honor. Many people who voted may want to see this, so Think of Catherine as the first choice.”
“Looking at the recent media in the country, promoting women’s rights, this is also promoted by the Oba. So a female director received the highest recognition, is it just to confirm this point, in the country, the status of women is very high!”
“Avatar has many fatal injuries. For example, the actors in this area can almost be said to be artificial people. Will the actors with the most voting rights join hands to resist?”
Just why the docks in the country cannot implement all digital mechanical equipment, that is, those dock workers feel that they will make them unemployed. Now this movie is the same. You don’t need actors at all, and you don’t need big-name actors. How do they make money?
Other movies are actor pay is the biggest expense, then the propaganda issuance spending, then the props and other. When you get here, will the actor take it? Then they are still trying to be a big star, to learn how good the director is.
“And in the Oscar campaign, many films will give movie discs to voters to let them have a deeper experience, which is exactly what we can’t do.”
First of all, “Avatar” was also released on the video website. At this time, the discs were given and circulated, which is not a small loss, and “The Hurt Locker” did not care about this because their discs could not be sold.
Then the 2D disc is completely unable to show the charm of “Avatar”, even 3D is weaker, IMAX’s viewing effect is the best.
You will be given a 3D disc, and you will also be given a corresponding 3D glasses, and this is not allowed, because this price is somewhat high and it is suspected of unfair competition.
“The last is this voting system, which is not fair enough and has high contingency. The winner of the single-round voting is the winner. This makes Avatar in a disadvantageous position, especially if there is a problem, you have no way of knowing it.”
Some people in the past have questioned the voting mechanism, and even thought that voting is fraudulent, but it is useless and cannot change the winning result.
Many people may think that the “Avatar” award is certain, then I voted for my second optimistic movie should not affect the results, but in the end it is very likely that there is a film bursting out.
Kirilenko frowned. “Feng, is there no way for James to win?”
He felt that if Cameron’s ex-wife defeated Cameron’s award, then the blow to Cameron was too great. What’s more, Cameron also opposed the war in the country, which made him look at Cameron’s pleasing eye.
Feng Yu thought for a moment: “It is very difficult.”
“There is a way? “Avatar” won the award, then it will definitely bring us more profits!” Kirilenko is also one of the investors, which is also very important, or for the money, he They are very keen.
Cameron is also looking forward to watching Feng Yu: “Mr. Feng, what is your solution?”
