Chapter 2038

Feng Yu's office in the stormy Empire State Building in New York, a group of people are celebrating.

"Cameron, congratulations. The Golden Globe Award is called the vane of Oscar. It seems that you are going to win the little golden man of Oscar!" MGM CEO Schmitz said.

"I also want to thank you for your vision, your willingness to invest so much in me, and your full support for my work. Of course, the most important thing to thank is Mr. Feng."

Cameron also felt that he was going to win the best director of the Oscars. He was proud of the spring and the wind. Whether it's box office or word-of-mouth, his "Avatar" is very good, and even the box office has created a historical record, breaking the historical record of his own "Titanic".

Such a box office is worthy of Feng Yu's high investment.

Three sequels are expected in the future, with a total investment of more than $1 billion. The investment in the first film alone surprised many people, but Feng Yu gave it without hesitation. In addition to the cost of publicity and development, it has exceeded 300 million US dollars. But compared with the box office returns, it really makes more money.

"James, at the Oscars, you have a big rival, your ex-wife, Catherine Bigelow. You should pay attention to her side, because it is likely to explode. "

"The bomb disposal force" is another movie that promotes the values of the United States, or the shooting technique is similar to documentary, which is very boring. The box office of the movie is more than 20 million dollars. It's not as expensive as avatar in one day.

Cameron looked scornful: "Mr. Feng, that movie didn't look good at all. See what she shot. Would anyone like to go to the cinema to see something like a documentary? And there are many loopholes in it. It seems that the director is very amateur. And let's see how many people of the United States are anti war. She made a mistake. "

Kirilenko nodded wildly: "that's right, it's just a fabricated story, just a cover up for their war."

Kirilenko was more and more pleased with Cameron. He didn't expect that this Yankee was so disgusted with the practice of the United States. If they were in Russia, no matter who they worked with, they would be 100% supportive. The patriotism of the American people is too poor!

"James, don't you understand Oscar's preference for feature films? Science fiction is never popular. That's the law. That star wars was defeated, et was defeated, which proves that. And the biggest reason to stop you from winning the prize is that you are MGM's contracted director. This movie is released by MGM and has created a box office record! "

Cameron thought for a moment, and then he understood what Feng Yu meant. The smile on his face gradually disappeared.

Kirilenko is confused. What are you talking about? He pulled Feng Yu: "Feng, what are you talking about? Isn't MGM the best movie company in the world? The highest box office, but still can't get the prize? I think the media are saying that James wants to copy the miracle of the shipwreck. "

Feng Yu put down the Champagne: "brother Ji, think about it. Since I bought MGM, MGM has been dominating the box office of American films, even the world box office for years."

"Before, the MGM, which was going bankrupt, was full of life in my hands. Now, it has not only paid off its debts, but also started to make a formal profit, and has tens of billions of dollars of assets. How long has it taken?"

"We have changed from the last to the first. We are fast. What do other film companies think? Have their interests been robbed by us? "

"And among the people who voted for the Oscars, there are too many academics, as well as people from major film companies. Who would like to see James win the prize? Or see "Avatar" win the prize

"We are so popular that the extremes of things will turn against us. And James also has a big disadvantage, that is, his ex-wife is a woman, and no female director has ever been able to obtain this honor. Many of those who voted might want to see that, so make Catherine the first choice. "

"I'm looking at the recent media in the United States to promote women's rights, which is also what oba Niu advocates. So is it true that a female director gets the highest recognition? In the United States, women's status is very high! "

"Avatar also has many fatal injuries. For example, the actors in it are almost artificial people. Will the actors with the most voting rights join forces to resist?"

Just like the reason why the terminals in the United States can't implement all the digital mechanical equipment, is that the dock workers feel that they will lose their jobs. Now this movie is the same. You don't need actors at all, let alone famous actors. How can they make money?

In other films, the actor's remuneration is the largest expenditure, followed by publicity and distribution expenditure, followed by props and other items. When you get here, the actors take that? Then what stars do they try to run for? How nice to learn to be a director.

"And in the Oscar campaign, many films will give movie CDs to voters to have a deeper experience, which is exactly what we can't do."

First of all, avatar is still playing on the video website. At this time, it's not a small loss to give away the disc and spread it. But the bomb disposal force doesn't care about it, because their disc can't be sold.Then there's the 2D disc that can't show the charm of avatar at all, even 3D is weaker, and the IMAX is the best viewing effect.

You need to give 3D discs as well as matching 3D glasses, which is not allowed because the price is a little high and it is suspected of unfair competition.

"In the end, this voting system is not fair at all. It's highly accidental. The winner of the single round voting may put avatar in a disadvantageous position, especially if there are any problems in it. You have no idea. "

In the past, some people questioned the voting mechanism and even thought that voting was fake, but it was useless and could not change the winning result.

Many people may think that the "Avatar" award is certain, so my vote for the second best movie should not affect the results, but it is likely that there will be a movie that won in the end.

Kirilenko frowned: "Feng, can't James win the prize?"

He felt that if he let Cameron's ex-wife beat him to win the prize, it would be a great blow to Cameron. What's more, Cameron was also opposed to the war launched by the United States just now, which made him particularly pleased.

"It's very difficult," Feng Yu thought

"Is there any way? "Avatar" won the prize, so it will definitely bring us more profits! " Kirilenko is also one of the investors. He also attaches great importance to this, or is very keen on making money.

Cameron also looked at Feng Yu expectantly: "Mr. Feng, what's your way?"
