King of Hollywood Chapter 49: It’s a miracle director
Chapter 49 is worthy of being a miracle director
"Rumors," Claude said on the phone. There was no annoyance and complaints, only appreciation. "Eisner deserves to be an old fox. It's just such a simple method, but it made us suffer a loss." "
The rumor is that this thing is the simplest and most common means in finance. To put it bluntly, the randomness of finance is probably only slightly higher than the quantum state. Taking stocks as an example, maybe the last second is still The skyrocketed, but the next second will be drastic, and even Buffett can’t guarantee that he can seize the fleeting opportunity every time, let alone others.
Because of this special feature, financial things are easily influenced by the outside world, and rumors are the most susceptible means. A company’s senior executives have contacted bankers, and large investors are preparing to divest a company. , The internal discord of a company, etc., etc., these news will inevitably make the company's stock ups and downs.
However, the most commonly used method is that rumors are generally not very effective. Rumors are rumors, after all, they either exaggerate negative things or simply fabricate them out of thin air. Essentially different-if it is a fact then it is not a rumor but a scandal. Therefore, as long as the company responds quickly enough, if the rumor is carried out as soon as possible, the wind that the rumor can raise is inversely proportional to the company's credibility.
However, even if it is such a common method, if you use it well, you can get a bumper harvest, such as spreading a few rumors when you are competing with a company or group for the key. Once the other party is shaken, even if it is just a It is possible that the gap will completely defeat the opponent. In the most well-known case known to ordinary people, it was the Berosschild family betting on the Battle of Waterloo and fabricating news of the defeat of the Duke of Wellington to master the Bank of England’s actions.
Of course, Eisner is not comparable to Rothschild one hundred years ago, and the channels for obtaining information are now more versatile, and the corresponding means are more abundant. Wanting to achieve such huge results again, means, vision, ability, opportunities, Indispensable. But the old fox is an old fox after all. Although Claude is also very good, he is still inferior in experience. Even taking into account all aspects, he still took advantage of the other party and took a loss.
"The next situation may be more difficult, they have taken the lead." Claude said on the phone.
"It's okay, I have given you full authority, everything is handled by you." Adrian didn't mind, he just reminded the sentence: "But, Crow, don't forget that this year's goal is not only."
"I know, Marvel Comics." Claude laughed. "Relax, I will handle it."
These things are always given to Claude. The two generations of Adrian have enough self-knowledge how to change their minds for this problem. In fact, Disney is so active that it is expected, think about the important thing they remember in the memory that they would rather lose for ten years without selling.
So even if I tried my best, I still failed. It’s a pity but it’s not terribly bad. Anyway, there are backup plans. There are still many opportunities in the future, so Adrian quickly transferred his efforts to shooting.
The current filming is Wallace’s open area and long Edward’s army front. In the absence of cavalry, the poorly equipped rebel army used a sharpened thick wooden stick to break the opponent’s charge. Won. The crew used almost a hundred horses to shoot this scene. Even though the Adrian schedule has been honed during the previous film production, it is still very busy.
Despite the help of a horse trainer, it is not easy to use these nearly a hundred horses to create a situation where a thousand-horse cavalry charges, and there is also a shot of a war horse being broken by a sharp stick. Of course, these cannot be done with real horses, and the people of the Animal Protection Association will re-play the crew, so they have to use props to edit them in the later stage, which is quite troublesome.
"Okay, guys, let's do it again, remember what I just said." Adrian shouted with a wave of his hand, although these shots have come dozens of times, his face is not anxious. God sè.
Since I originally selected this movie, I was mentally prepared to face difficulties, and it has always been a weakness of Adrian in the scheduling of the big scene. I also took this opportunity to exercise one or two.
"Please wait, Mr. Adrian, maybe we should talk about that issue again." A middle-aged man who was almost fifty years old came over and said politely, wearing a formal dress, always with a wide edge Hat, gives a sense of old-fashioned.
"Oh, Mr. Wood, is there any advice?" Adrian smiled bitterly in his heart, but on the surface still made a serious god, the only thing that made him feel headache during this time was this person, and this He just invited him.
This Mr. Wood? Brody is the liaison of the Animal Protection Association, responsible for checking whether the crew has abused the horses during the shooting. The Animal Protection Association will of course not know if there are film crews who abuse animals during filming, unless someone reports it, but Adrian remembers that the original "Brave Heart" was released because the war was so real and tragic that the Animal Protection Association I thought that the horses were actually killed in this way during shooting, and used this to protest to the film company. It was not until the crew produced the post-production picture that they believed that "dead" was only props.
Therefore, in order to prevent this situation, Adrian contacted the Animal Protection Association early and let them send someone to follow up to prove that the crew did not abuse any horses. Whoever was sent to the other party was an old-fashioned and unsmiling guy who usually stood silently in the crowd with a sullen face, was always very cold, and did not have much contact with everyone, just like a piece of wood, but his name complemented each other. But once he thinks what to do will cause harm to the horse-even a slight one-he will continue to criticize, and unless Adrian accepts it, he will never stop.
"Since Mr. Adrian has invited us to follow up the whole process, I naturally don’t want these horses to have an accident, so I have to do my duty." Brody said this very seriously, so even if Adrian is dissatisfied, It's not good to have an attack in his face, every time I can only agree to cater.
"Okay, I know, I will let them pay attention." After Brody nagging, Adrian said quickly, and then gave an eye to the assistant director next to him, and the other party was stunned. Immediately understood, beckoning others to start.
In fact, many times Brody is a bit picky. This is normal. Many people love animals more than their kind, and therefore do many incredible things. This is also what humans do.
But Brody is not exactly that kind of person. Adrian always views him from left ear to right ear, letting the staff change the way and continue shooting. Brody also knows this, but those topics are only said once, and he continues to play the wood when he finishes speaking. From this point of view, he is not an inflexible person.
"Game 113, Act 78, get ready!" With the voice of the scene, the baffle hit.
These lenses are very impactful when viewed from the screen, but they appear to be loose and loose in actual shooting. This is the skill of méng, which is the charm of the movie. Soon, there was news in the British media that "Miracle Director Adrian made a new movie with British medieval warfare" as the theme, along with a few blurry photos.
Although the protection work of the studio has been done very well, it is difficult to achieve watertightness in this big scene, and there are more reporters in the neighborhood than before, because the 67th Oscar The nomination list is released.
There is no suspense. "Forrest Gump" won 13 nominations, which is no different from Adrian's memory. The four nominations for best movie, best director, best actor, and best supporting actor are the most important. For a time, Tom Hanks was in the limelight. With the reputation and praise won by this movie, he is very likely to win the best actor's gold man!
Although Spencer Qusay had already won the best actor before him, in the 1930s, Oscar’s selection mechanism was far less fair than it is now, although Spencer Qusay was also an actor out of sè, But the gold people at that time, the gold content was at least half lower than now. According to the current selection criteria of the Academy of Film Arts and Sciences, it is almost impossible to win an award, but Hanks has a great possibility to create a record this time. The corner of Forrest is really in line with mainstream values. , So you can imagine what kind of attention he will receive.
But in the circle, Hanks is not the most concerned. All well-informed people know who pushed Hanks down this position. If "Story of Philadelphia" and "Forrest Gump" are released. Time, Hanks absolutely no possibility of re-election. Hanks knew this, so as soon as the nomination list was announced, he called the Adrian across the ocean to thank him. He was too excited and excited to forget the jet lag problem. Fortunately, Adrian was not sleeping yet.
In short, everyone in the circle, especially the actors, have focused their attention on Adrian. Although the "Forrest Gump" has received unprecedented praise, Hanks may have re-evaluated the argument, but after the nomination list was announced Still people can't help but want to sigh: Director Miracle deserves to be Director Miracle.
Think about what he has done in recent years. The youngest Palme d’Or won’t say that the odds of becoming the youngest Oscar best director this year are less likely than Hanks’ best actor. Not much. Last year’s big-selling movies were enough for actors to earn their favor, let alone the coveted honor.
The thoughts of the senior executives of various film companies are more complicated. Since Adrian entered this circle, Bosworth Films has produced too many movies. Last year’s 8 films earned Bosworth Money is not earned by other companies of the same level for two years. Even the seven major film companies, if they only count the money they make from the film, they are no match.
If you change to another company, you may have been stumbling or swallowed up or divided up. However, Adrian knows how to share, and major movie companies have received a lot of benefits from him. Universal, Fox and He has the best relationship. In addition, in his hands, Bosworth grows very fast, and when he becomes a media subsidiary, and the media has acquired tbs, it must be weighed again.
"He can make money and win awards, he took both ends, and he has a few ideas, God is really good to him." Robert Carner of Warner Pictures was half in the rest Sighing half ridiculously, he said to his subordinates.
Michael Eisner also sighed, if he had a sharper eye, and pulled him into Disney-even if the shares were split-now not only will not have trouble, but will also add a lot to Disney interest.
Relatively, the DreamWorks Big Three are happy to comment on this situation. They are challengers of the existing order, and Adrian is basically an ally. Spielberg also called the first time to congratulate .
As for the other two companies under their control, naturally they are also happy, especially Miramax. Although having a strong boss is not a pleasant thing, from the performance of Adrian, as long as it is satisfied in film production He didn't ask anything else, and the Weinstein brothers were relieved. Robert Shea thought more about it. After all, he still holds most of the rights of the new line, but this does not mean that he refused to offer the idea of Adrian.
Although people in the circle are like this, Hanks has received more attention than him in the mass media. Even Adrian appeared frequently in the newspapers, and the news that it might become Oscar’s youngest and best director was constant. The previous achievements were also taken out by reporters, and the director’s position in the public mind was not as good as an actor after all. Moreover, Hanks may continue to be the best actor.
Adrian didn’t mind at all, this was the situation he wanted to see. As I said before, one foot at the front desk and one foot behind the scenes are the best condition, as long as the actors understand it, Bosworth Shadow Films nominated by Oscars have more than 13 "Forrest Gump" nominations.
"ǎofù人" received three nominations. In addition to the best art director and best costume, Winona barely won the nomination for the best nv protagonist, but she stopped here and wanted to further It is impossible. Her age is her biggest shackle. After all, nominations are based on strength and awards are based on luck.
"Interview with the Vampire" also received three nominations, in addition to the best art direction and the best soundtrack, Kirsten won the nomination for the best nv supporting role. Adrian When he called to congratulate the first time, ǎo妖jīng seemed particularly excited and moved. Of course, he also had to talk about him verbally.
"Oh, I really miss you, Ed, especially... your fingers, the mí drunken feeling of being in paradise is really unforgettable. I don’t know when I will taste it again. "Ǎo妖jīng said in a boneless way after taking the phone to no one's place. The sweet and sweet tone was a little bit sweet, which is really extremely human.
In contrast, Tom Cruise will no doubt be saddened a lot. He had planned to compete for Oscar again with the corner of Leicester. Who knows that he didn’t even get the nomination. According to the news, he said that Very angry. But this is nothing. Even if he is nominated, he is not Hanks's opponent. It is also called Tom, which is really different.
In short, the release of the Oscar nomination list once again put him in front of the public. How could the British nose newspapers with a sharp nose have let it go. As for the tōu filming on the set, they might be prosecuted, and the newspapers could not be sued. They, besides, the photos are very blurry and will not harm the interests of many film companies.
As for those big newspapers, they can know from the reprint without hesitation, why they look down on the newspaper but always keep one eye on this kind of behavior, and just take the photo after receiving the notice. Anyway, it has attracted attention.
Oscar’s nomination plus these few blurred photos, the British began to talk about the new film directed by Miracle. With the lessons of the last Howard Manor, they dare not laugh at random, but they are malicious. Speech is indispensable.
"When the Oscar nomination list was released, Director Marvel was shooting his new movie on the Scottish highlands. I don’t know if he thought he was winning, or he didn’t want to pay attention to it. After all, he wanted to make a medieval War movies, and he has almost never failed." One film critic wrote in his own column that this content is mixed in the article reviewing this Oscar, and its intention is obvious, not to mention the hints between the lines.
After this news was reprinted by the American media~IndoMTL.com~The American response was relatively bland. At first, Adrian did too many surprising things. Besides, Howard Manor was in the front. There is no need to question the level of his production; the Oscar nomination list came out shortly afterwards, and it was the topic of hot mén. However, the American media still sent many journalists to Scotland. After all, the new film of the director Miracle who was nominated again and is very likely to be awarded is still very newsworthy.
As a result, the pressure on the crew increased again. Although the previous photo event Adrian was not angry, it also indicated that it did not want to see a similar situation again. Fortunately, he was quite considerate to everyone. After the shooting of the most intense war scene, he announced that he would shoot the indoor scene first, and the other battles were temporarily postponed.
This trick contained journalists very well. Although they had to protest, the crew said through the spokesperson that the plot should be kept secret, so they will not be interviewed for now. In desperation, they hit their ideas on Adrian, do you always have time to rest? We are here to stay, are we afraid that we can’t catch your whereabouts? !
Unfortunately, their tricks are basically revealed by Adrianmō, plus this is not ten years later, so they still do what they should do, such as --
