Chapter 115: Still on the Eve

Miramax, or the Oscar focus of the Weinstein brothers will certainly not be Daniel, but this year is not a big year for Miramax, and there is a lack of competitive works and actors in general. Their main purpose is to nominate, It's basically done well now. Therefore, under such a background, Daniel's award-winning PR appears to be relatively dominant.

Those Jewish judges with voting rights have to give Weinstein some face, don't they?

To be honest, it's very likely.

So, a young Oscar winner is about to be born?

Not only that, I just learned that Daniel once went to Paris on the eve of the Golden Globe Awards, and his whereabouts are completely confidential. Do you know why he went?

Bob was really interested, and unlike Harvey, Harvey was sort of the PR department for Miramax, while Bob ran a studio—they had to put out quality stuff, or PR would It doesn't work.

He went to see Roman Polanski.

The Pianist? Of course Bob knew about Polanski's new project, but the news was really surprising. Is it the leading actor?

If nothing else happens. Harvey put down the report in his hand, This work is of great significance to Polanski. If it hadn't been fully recognized by him, Daniel would not have gotten this opportunity. Tim Roland of Snow Eagle is Their matchmaker, by the way, Daniel met through Ridley and Tim. Now, Ridley, Tim, and the old guy Drake are all working hard to help him, not to mention Universal and DreamWorks, and even MGM is also doing things that aren't very helpful.

Bob was silent for a while, Do we have any suitable projects recently?

Why recently, Bob, give him a few more years, the scenery that belongs to Russell Crowe today is likely to belong to him, then our cooperation will be more meaningful.

The two scheming Weinsteins looked at each other, and they both understood each other's thoughts. The conflict between Miramax and the Disney headquarters became increasingly difficult to cover up and make up for. The industry is tilted, and they have become unwelcome adopted children.

After the silence, Harvey said with some hesitation, Daniel also told me something, I don't know how credible it is.

kindness?

Remember Shanying's analysis of Pearl Harbor?

Of course, they thought it would be a less popular piece.

Harvey nodded, More than that, Daniel's attitude is more clear. He said that Jerry has invited him to watch the trial version of Pearl Harbor. It will be low, but he estimates that it will not exceed 200 million, you know that Disney has already spent 250 million for it, if this prediction is to be believed, then Michael will lose a lot this time.

The board of directors will not be indifferent to losses of more than 100 million yuan.

Do you think we should speed up contact with Robert Iger?

Bob is very cautious about this decision. This is not an hour. Although Michael Eisner's preference for this department is not a secret, he can still be honest. If Miramax's attitude is more clear, Ace Na's attitude will definitely be completely different. Whether the Weinstein Brothers will be kicked out of Miramax by then, no one knows.

Although this company was created by them alone,

But when they are acquired, it means that they do not have the final power to determine the future of the company.

Be careful, Bob tapped the cap of the pen, Didn't Daniel say the reason?

A bunch of analytical statements. To be honest, if it wasn't necessary, I would wonder if he bought additional services from Shanying. Harvey said with a smile, but it sounds really convincing, and ——This is in the same direction as our prediction.”

The office fell into silence again.

...

Calvin Kings has started to make more calls recently.

This happens every year, and his family is not surprised. Before the Oscars are approaching, there are endless people asking him about voting. Instead, there are fewer lobbyists and public relations. Now there are more media. If they make 80 out of 100 phone calls to Russell Crowe, then their reporting has a serious tendency - this is a good time to earn trust and power .

Voting is confidential, Jones.

Stop doing this, Calvin, everyone knows you're a big mouth, and no one will blame you. Jones—not Jones of the Los Angeles Times, but Jones Linda of Entertainment Weekly , She has been reporting on Oscars for many years, and she has a lot of ideas about dealing with Calvin. This well-known actor in the 1970s is indeed a big mouth.

Calvin obviously didn't mind, The actor and actress are as you guessed. As for the supporting actor, I chose Willem Dafoe, and the supporting actress is Marcia. I can't say anything else.

OK, Calvin, this year is Gaia flying chess, right?

Jones Linda got an affirmative answer.

In her new report, she would repay Cavin's frankness by saying, Oscar judge Cavin Kims, who was asked who he voted for, was a little casual, as if the question was better than playing Gaia flight with his granddaughter. Interestingly, he said he voted for Russell Crowe and Julia Roberts respectively, in line with most forecasters, it seems that this time the critics and the Academy have achieved a rare unanimity, but this also seems to lower the Oscar fun.

It won't be long before Gaia Ludo, a not-so-well-known maker of children's toys, will pay Calvin Kings a fee.

Calvin Kings likes to do small commercials, this is a safe way, because he will also attend some Gaia ludo events to hide his income-actually who would invite such an old star to attend himself What about publicity activities, unless you are at the level of Elizabeth Taylor, obviously, Carvin is still too far from that level.

This is just one of the various transmission methods buried in the Oscar's interest chain.

One of the reasons why the Oscars are so fascinating, of course, is that all parties can get what they want from here. Needless to say, stars, nominations, exposure and trophies, studios want box office bonuses and company reputation. In addition, the academy gained authority and power, while ABC received ratings and advertising fees. Of course, the Oscar judges, who are absolute power holders, also have their own channels.

Advertisement is one of them, and it is also popular to support juniors and receive promotional gifts directly.

Of course, the carnival of this season will gradually dissipate after tomorrow's ultimate peak. The judges have already settled down, but the nominees are still in fear.
