Chapter 590

As an Oscar outpost, this year's 51st Golden Globe Awards ceremony will be held on January 22, Saturday.

Simon returned from New York with Janet on Friday. As usual, he didn't plan to attend the Golden Globe Awards ceremony. He only planned to attend the after party hosted by igritte after the ceremony.

This year's Golden Globe Awards, including the next Oscars, are actually not too much suspense.

"Schindler's list" directed by Steven Spielberg is the big winner of this award season.

It's overwhelming.

With the end of the year's hot schedule in the past, the momentum of a bunch of heavy bombs are gradually fading.

As of January 20, at the end of last year, the lion king, the main three blockbusters in the schedule, showed a decline of 27% in the ninth week of its release, and received another US $10.11 million, with a cumulative box office of US $279.53 million, only a gap of 20 million from US $300 million. It is estimated that the total box office in North America will be about US $310 million.

Moreover, the box office performance of "Lion King" in the overseas market is more eye-catching. At present, many overseas ticket warehouses have not been opened, the cumulative overseas box office of this 3D animation film has exceeded that of North America, reaching 360 million US dollars. Taking North America into account, the total global box office of the film exceeds 670 million US dollars, and the industry generally predicts that the total global box office of the film will be between 800 million and 900 million US dollars.

Just relying on the box office revenue, Denise entertainment can make a net profit of more than $200 million from the lion king. The success of the second 3D animated film also completely broke Disney's monopoly on animated films and basically consolidated Denise Entertainment's position in the Hollywood animation industry. Toy Story 2, which will be released at the end of 1994, has become one of the most anticipated films this year.

Mission impossible continued to earn US $5.51 million with a 37% weekly drop in the eighth week of its release, with a cumulative box office of US $170.96 million, and the total box office in North America was basically locked at US $180 million. The overseas box office of "mission impossible" is also higher than that of North America. Recently, it has reached 230 million US dollars, with a total of 410 million US dollars in the world.

The worldwide success has made Nicholas Cage, the hero of mission impossible, another Hollywood superstar.

In recent years, a large number of new generation male stars, such as Keanu Reeves, rivan Phoenix, Brad Pitt, Nicholas Cage and so on, have risen one after another by relying on DC movies, universe and other blockbusters. In the 1980s, Tom Cruise, who was the most popular actor in the world, began to fade rapidly, with less and less resources available. Recently, many high-quality projects are the first choice of the studio Zedu began to lean towards the rising stars of recent years.

The box office of DC cosmos film "steel bone" fell by 37% in the first week after the festival from January 7 to January 13, earning US $35.52 million. The decline narrowed to 31% in the week from January 14 to January 20, closing US $24.51 million again. Four weeks after its release, "steel bone" grossed $192.63 million.

According to the box office base of the fourth week of "steel bone" and the current decline trend, the final box office of the film is about 260 million US dollars, which surpasses "flash", but the possibility of impact of 300 million is slim.

The popularity of blockbusters has subsided, and the attention of a number of films in the award season has begun to increase significantly.

As the biggest hit of this award season, "Schindler's list" recently began to expand the screening scale. From January 14 to January 20, the number of screens on Schindler's list increased to 256, with a single week box office revenue of $4.67 million, and the average number of theaters was still as high as $18000.

Six weeks after the opening, Schindler's list still hasn't been released on a large scale. The cumulative box office of Schindler's list has reached $15.65 million.

Domay point manor.

In the dining room of shell villa, the atmosphere of dinner is very lively, but it's a bit gloomy and sunny, which is the same situation that maids are sent out.

At the table, Janet was next to Simon as usual. Opposite is Veronica and Jennifer. The two girls are completely weaned in Melbourne. The little guy is facing his parents. He seems very clever. There is no such bad behavior as climbing on the table or throwing dishes out to listen to the noise. As for picky food, it is not allowed.

Small details like this are the result of Simon and his wife's forced reversal.

During this period of time, Simon also found that Jennifer is definitely more suitable for taking care of children than Veronica. In addition to the two little girls, the female assistant takes good care of Melbourne, and does not connive like Veronica. She always patiently guides the kids what to do and what not to do. Recently, she has started some enlightenment education, such as various pictures and building blocks, which are not deliberate but clear Obviously, it can improve children's cognitive ability.

I can see that Veronica is a little disappointed about it.

Simon doesn't dare to let her take Melbourne with her anymore. Veronica's attitude towards the little guy is "baby wants a star. OK, Nana will help you pick one." if it goes on like this, the child will definitely become a super dandy when he grows up.

There is a live broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards ceremony on the TV in the dining room. The topic of discussion is to build a private school for the kids in Malibu.

During this period of time, the female assistant has identified several education experts and started to select the location of the school.Compared with university education, Simon also pays more attention to junior and senior education, because it is the most critical stage to cultivate children's thinking and cognitive ability and even personal character. As long as some key qualities are confirmed before adulthood, University is not so important.

"Schindler's list" on the TV screen successfully won another best screenwriter award. Simon just glanced at it casually, drew back his attention and said to the female assistant: "it's not just the children of the management of the westero system. After the school is completed, it can also be opened to the whole Los Angeles area. I hope Moore can have a larger social circle in the future."

The assistant nodded.

But Janet said, "it's not good to be too big. Moore doesn't need to know people he doesn't need to deal with."

The little guy across the street heard his parents mention him, raised his head in doubt, and then habitually looked at Veronica next to him.

Veronica wiped the corner of the little guy's mouth and explained in a friendly voice: "Mom and dad are discussing about Mo Mo's school."

The little guy obviously has no idea about school. When Veronica said that, he pushed the bowl in front of him and said he didn't want to eat pumpkin porridge. He secretly asked Veronica for chocolate.

It was found.

Janet stares, "no chocolate. Do you want a spanking?"

I was really beaten by my mother.

Deep memory.

The little guy shriveled his mouth, but he didn't dare to cry. Veronica had no choice but to glance at Janet, and she didn't dare to coax her. According to past experience, she often called her father after she spoke.

"You scared Moore."

Simon didn't say anything, but the female assistant gave Janet a white look. With that, she simply held the little guy in her lap and comforted him while feeding himself. She said that she could reward a piece of chocolate after drinking pumpkin porridge, but the baby had to brush her teeth by herself today.

As dinner drew to a close, the Golden Globe Awards ceremony on wall TV was drawing to a close.

"The lion king" won the best picture Award for musical comedy, and then Spielberg's best director..

At the end of the dinner, the female assistant gives the child to Veronica, and then asks Janet, who is beside Simon, to watch the tableware together. Janet reluctantly says that it should be a servant's business. Simon stares at her and gets up reluctantly. The sound of broken porcelain soon comes from the kitchen.

The voice of the female assistant rang out and patiently said that it didn't matter. She could buy a new one tomorrow.

And then Janet kept complaining that she was so busy making money to support her family that she had to do housework when she came back.

Simon just sat at the dinner table with a smile, listening to the occasional dispute between the two women, and continued to watch the whole award ceremony. Schindler's list finally won the best picture award in the drama category.

After cleaning up the dishes, Janet immediately pours on Simon's arms and reaches out her index finger to show that she has just been scratched by the fragments of the porcelain plate.

Simon looked around, only a shallow red mark, even the skin is not broken, caught a woman's little hand on the index finger kiss, way: "help you disinfect, soon."

Janet put her index finger out again with a smile and said, "give me another kiss?"

Simon raised his hand and opened it. "Don't be greedy."

Janet narrowed her eyes and said, "kiss again. I'll kiss you tonight."

The female assistant walked out of the kitchen, just heard Janet's words, and joked: "Simon is not used to waiting too late, or you can cash it now."

Janet immediately grabbed Simon's big hand and gave him a couple of kisses, then put her index finger up again.

Simon had to kiss again.

Looking at Janet's mischief, the assistant asked Simon, "do you want Neil to prepare the car?"

Simon nodded and said, "it's OK to go back in half an hour," patting Janet in her arms. "Are you going or not?"

"No," said Janet, shaking her head. "I'll do the maintenance later and go to bed early. So you can't come back tonight. " Then he got up from Simon's arms and said, "I'll go and see Nick and sear."

After Janet left, the female assistant came over, raised her arms and put them on Simon's shoulder with a smile, put one leg on his knee, leaned over to kiss the man, and said, "I live in the West villa with my children tonight. They're watching

Simon nodded, "well."

The man pretended to be stupid, and the female assistant showed a small look of threat discontentedly: "you have to come back. You have been out for a week."

Simon put his arm around the assistant's waist, held her in his arms and said with a smile, "isn't this week over yet?"

Feeling Simon's joking tone, the female assistant didn't say anything any more. She came over and pasted a note on his cheek and said in a soft voice, "I'll help you prepare your clothes first."

Simon loosened his hand and said, "why don't you come with me?"

The female assistant didn't get up in a hurry: "aren't you afraid I'll watch you closely?"

Simon shook his head: "not afraid."

The female assistant kisses the man on the cheek again and says, "you're not afraid. I'm still afraid. It's messy enough. I don't want any trouble."The golden ball award, danelis entertainment can be described as a complete victory.

"Schindler's list" won three awards of best film, best director and best screenwriter.

"Lion King" has won three awards, including best film, best original song and best soundtrack.

Tina Turner's music biography "what do you want to do with me" released by summer high gate pictures won the best actress award in Music Comedy category.

In terms of best foreign language film, danielis entertainment was shortlisted for two films, the wedding banquet, which won the Berlin Golden Bear award last year, and farewell my concubine, which won the Cannes Golden Palm Award last year.

In history, the winner of the Golden Globe Award for best foreign language film was farewell my concubine. This time, Simon is more interested in the wedding banquet and Ang Lee's development potential in Hollywood. The other party's second film, food and drink, is still produced by gaomen film company, so the key point is on the wedding banquet, and the film also won the prize.

MGM, which also belongs to the westrow system, won the best actor award this time by relying on the Philadelphia story, which is Tom Hanks' second Golden Globe Award for best actor. It also made a good start for the Oscar competition in March.

In terms of TV, Denise TV's desperate housewives and Seinfeld are equally successful.

In recent years, reality TV programs have become more and more prosperous. Denise entertainment has secretly promoted the Golden Globe awards to set up related awards, but it has not been successful. On the contrary, Emmy Awards have set up special awards for reality TV.

Denise Entertainment's strength in Hollywood at this time is impossible even if it wants to cover up, so it will not cover up any more.

After all, there is no doubt about the quality of the films produced. Whether it's Schindler's list or the lion king, the two types of best films that won the Golden Globe award are well deserved.

Danielis Entertainment's after party is at Century City Hotel, not far from Beverly Hilton Hotel, where the Golden Globe is held.

When Simon arrived, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening, and the party was still very busy.

Not only the creators of the award-winning films, but also many stars who attended the award ceremony tonight.

Simon held his glass one by one to congratulate Spielberg, John lassett, Tom Hanks and others. After half an hour in the crowd, Amy Pascal found him.

"Steven's agent talked to me this afternoon," said Amy and Simon, taking a seat at the edge of the hall. "Steven recently decided to take a year off to accompany his wife and children."

After a year's delay, Spielberg probably fully understood that danielis entertainment didn't want him to continue directing the Jurassic Park series, so she found a step for herself and chose to take the initiative to quit.

This is actually good for both sides.

Simon nodded and asked, "when will the news come out?"

"At least after the Oscars," Amy said. "Besides, Steven also said that he would not be a sequel to Jurassic Park."

In the original time and space, until the restart of Jurassic world many years later, Spielberg was still named executive producer. In fact, many Hollywood blockbusters, such as the man in black series and the transformers series, Spielberg participated in and became executive producer.

This also shows Spielberg's high status in Hollywood.

Of course, many things have changed in this time and space.

Spielberg refused to be named in the sequel of Jurassic Park. Obviously, he is still resentful of danielis entertainment. We all know that the filmmaker has a grudge. It is estimated that the date of the last film left over from the global era is far away.

Simon doesn't mean to change danielis Entertainment's established development strategy in order to accommodate a certain filmmaker.

It's not good or bad.

Just like Sony in the original time and space constantly indulged in the rotten boy gang. It not only offered high film salaries, but also reduced itself to the foil of making hard money. It even caused such a tragedy as the Sony hacker incident because of a spoof movie that assassinated the head of state of another country. Paramount's constant accommodation to Michael Bay is also the main reason for the complete collapse of the transformers series.

Disney, with the best development in memory, has no such malady.

He thought that George Lucas was out of date, so he completely kicked him out of the Star Wars series. He thought that Jos Wilden had too many ideas, and he was directly expelled after two big selling Avengers in a row. This kind of decision-making boldness is difficult for other studios to achieve, and it also makes Disney strong to a large extent.

The creativity of filmmakers is precious, but countless facts have proved that excessive indulgence can only cause disastrous consequences.

Therefore, Simon always adheres to a strong leading business attitude towards danielis entertainment. Although he will not be too harsh on the filmmaker's creation, he will not always accommodate the other filmmaker because of his outstanding achievements.
