Chapter 1111 Shocking Oscar
Don't blame the reporters for gossiping, because this is their job.m
Besides, this is a good opportunity. Zhang Chu has too many news points, which are much more exciting than those celebrities’ monotonous and boring characters!
Just a little news leaked between your fingers can become a hot search.
Who made Zhang Chu's works and the projects adapted works very eye-catching, and they were all mysterious.
It was obvious that "Da Vinci Code" had already been completed in May, but so long has passed, there is no movement at Disney, and the posters and trailers are gone.
What’s more coincidental is that Zhang Chu is the co-producer of the movie!
"Today is the premiere of Pi. I hope everyone will pay more attention to this video and talk about other topics in the future."
There were microphones of different media in front of Zhang Chu, and he declined with a smile.
Without communicating with Disney's Propaganda Department in advance, it is easy to disrupt other people's publicity rhythm if they disclose inside information casually.
Of course, the reporters were very sorry, and some people asked: "Did you know about Hu Ge's acting in the movie in advance? Is the writer character in the novel a portrayal of you?"
This is a question related to "Youth Pi". There are also hundreds of thousands of people waiting for his answers in the live broadcast channel of Weibo.
Fortunately, Zhang Chu did not disappoint these people: "I knew it when casting, but the crew did not want to be disturbed by the outside world. As for what role he played, you can go to the cinema to check it out. The writer is a virtual character, not me."
When Li An was casting, she did not want to receive excessive attention from the domestic entertainment industry. She did not choose to audition in private. Instead, she found photos of Chinese male actors of suitable age to compare them, and then chose a person with good acting skills, personal image, and English speaking to contact her privately.
Domestic media all thought that Li An would hand over the role of the writer to Hollywood actors to play, and the agents did not fight for this role, otherwise Hu Ge would definitely not be able to get this if he was to fight publicly. After all, Tangren is invisible in the film field.
Now the male actors and the agency behind them are probably very regretful. They should have come to it at the beginning. Maybe this is the springboard to Hollywood!
As a member of the entertainment industry, almost every actor wants to develop in Hollywood, and no one wants to stop in China to play variety shows. This is the difference between sparrow and swan.
Apart from this, Zhang Chu didn't reveal anything else, almost all of them were in an official voice.
When he saw another celebrity couple walking hand in hand on the red carpet, he fled from the reporters with relief, and walked towards the screening hall.
This screening room is large enough to accommodate 500 people to watch movies at the same time, with an area of nearly 700 square meters. Even if you sit in the back, you can see it. It is a real big screen!
An Mi and others were already sitting in the middle. They each had 3D glasses. They were chatting together at this moment, and they did not go to find the celebrities to take photos and sign autographs.
"The reporters will let you in so soon?" Zhou Kang asked curiously.
Zhang Chu shook his head, "How is that possible! They have countless problems. But their feet are on me, so they will naturally leave if they want to. Is director Li An here?"
Zhou Kang pointed to the front, Li An, who was a little short, was taking photos with several bay stars with a smile, including familiar faces.
Since you are here, you must go over and say hello, otherwise it would be too rude.
"Good evening, Director Li."
"I thought you wouldn't attend the event today. You were the only one missing when we premiered at the Hollywood Chinese Theater." Li An smiled very elegantly and shyly, with her white hair particularly eye-catching.
Zhang Chu spread his hands and said, "As a student, you can't always ask for leave. Now the premiere at your doorstep will of course come here."
The rest of the people didn't know this strange face at first, and they thought that the movie fans came over to take a photo, but they didn't expect to be so familiar with Li An.
To be honest, the identity of the original author and screenwriter may be clearer among the crew members, but it is basically difficult to recognize the outside world.
Li An looked at the noisy environment around him and whispered: "I have good news to tell you that Warner Bros. is planning to use $8 million to promote "Boyant Pi", and my production company will also pay some funds. The current situation is quite complicated. Our movies have received a lot of praise in North America. Many industry insiders believe that this script has the opportunity to be nominated, provided that you or your company are willing to go to public relations."
Every year, film studios that are committed to Ao will invest more than 100 million US dollars in Oscar public relations. Of course, they are not philanthropists. If they invest 100 million, they will definitely want to make 200 million back!
Any Oscar-nominated film will make a leap in box office, DVD sales, on-demand fees, etc.
"Pi's Fantasy Drift" was specially selected to be released during this period so that it can get a share of the prizes season. Although it is a commercial blockbuster, it is a work with connotation and meaning. This is what Oscars prefer.
Now the Oscar ratings and discussions are declining, because the movies nominated every year are basically niche. In any past year, as long as there are well-known and popular movies, Oscar judges will not be stingy with the tickets they have, and will send them to the nomination list, even if they are accompanying them all!
The public needs this type of movie, so they don’t want to watch "Moonlight Boy" winning the best film, but want to watch how many awards can be won by the twelve nominations of "Titanic".
To hit the Oscars does not mean going directly to it, but will instead accumulate momentum in the other awards and then naturally win the nomination, not just airborne.
For example, the Golden Globe Award, the biggest vane of the Oscars, will appear at the Golden Globe Awards for any film that is aspiring to the Oscars, and want to win the Golden Globe Awards.
It is true that production companies will enjoy the big part of their interests, but they also need the cooperation of various departments.
For example, Warner Bros. wants two awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and there is no hope for the best actor and Best Actress. After all, the male lead is a newcomer in India, and there is no heroine at all.
In order to win the best film, you still need the support of other awards. It is impossible to be a bare-sized commander, such as Best Editing, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Photography, Best Original Soundtrack, Best Art Director, etc.
Li An has been a veteran of participating in Hollywood awards seasons many times. From "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to "Hong Kong Dragon" in North America, winning the Best Foreign Language Film for the Oscars and Best Director in "Brokeback Mountain", he basically knows these rules.
"You mean the award for Best Adapted Screenplay? But I haven't even entered the American Screenwriters Association. Will these people vote for me?"
