Zhang Chu is still very sorry that "Young Pi" will not appear at the Cannes Film Festival.

But since the producer Warner Bros. is unwilling to release the "Pi" movie so early, it must have its own considerations.

The Cannes Film Festival is held in May, and the Oscar nomination list is announced on December 20th. As for the awards ceremony, it will be in the distant February next year.

If the video is exposed too early, the future will be weak, so most of the works aimed at Oscars will be released in the second half of the year, especially after November!

The relationship between the Oscars and the three major European film festivals is quite complicated. To some extent, they reject the three majors, and it has not changed one after another in recent years.

Many awards that have won the highest honors in the Berlin Film Festival in Cannes or Venice, and they can get a few nominations for the Oscars, but if they are not lucky, they will be completely ignored.

Film festivals tend to be more artistic, and the discovery of excellent artistic films is the real purpose of the film festival.

The Oscar is a commendation award in the American film industry. It is a recognition of the industry elites for film workers every year and prefer to take care of the double-sided harvest of art and business!

In terms of influence, Oscar is based in Hollywood and uses the United States to export culture to the world.

It can be said that to a large extent, the combined influence of the three major film festivals is not as good as the Oscars, and it is an award that truly represents the most mainstream films in the world.

Some movies that win awards at the Berlin Film Festival may not even be able to recover their investments in the market, because it is very likely that they are not the choice of mainstream audiences, but only the choice of more than a dozen judges!

Among the award-winning films at the three major European film festivals, there may be many that ordinary audiences cannot watch or understand.

However, in the Oscar list and even nomination list, there are basically works that the public can read, or they will not look obscure and difficult to understand, and there will be no experimental subject matter or experimental shooting techniques.

It is very interesting to describe these film festivals in the film industry.

Cannes is the largest film festival in Europe with trading volume and scale, and its artistic and commercial nature are relatively high.

They are like Cannes, Berlin, and Venice, like Pioneer Tea Party.

The Oscar is different from the three major European film festivals. This is a Vanity Fair and an annual summary of the American film festival!

On the surface, each film is fighting hard, but in fact it is a struggle between production companies, a redistribution of power and the layout of awards.

Every company has what it calls one push and two push.

One recommendation means that the video with the best resources recommended and the most promising award. Various public relations and promotions are placed on this movie.

Now it seems that "Pi's Fantasy Drift" is very likely to be pushed by Warner Bros., and it is strictly protected!

Zhang Chu has memories of his previous life. On Earth, the movie won more than ten nominations. He was considered a big winner in the nomination stage, but at the award ceremony, he only won the heavyweight award of Best Director.

In this life, the owner of "Boys Pi" became Warner Bros. This company is also famous in Hollywood. Its super-large media company backed by Time Warner, at least in terms of publicity and public relations positions.

As for the quality, Zhang Chu could not make a conclusion before seeing the film!

"If the quality is not bad, maybe the nomination is not a problem. As for winning the award, it really depends on luck and public relations level."

This may become Zhang Chu's first movie to be related to Oscars.

At present, the global sales of "Pi's Fantasy Drift" have not been saturated, and it will usher in a blowout once the movie is released.

If you nominate an Oscar or even win an Oscar, it will probably double its book sales even more than just!

That's why those studios are keen on hitting the Oscars, and that will bring benefits.

The box office growth of the movie is the most intuitive, and there are also DVD sales and various broadcast rights, as well as derivatives of the movie, and even the value of actors will soar.

As the author of the original work, Zhang Chu will also enjoy the benefits brought by the Oscars!

No one will do things that are not profitable.

After hearing Zhang Chu's words, Zhou Kang suddenly responded: "Director Xu said that "Farewell My Concubine" may also compete for the Oscars to see if there is a drama in the best foreign language film."

"This is probably a bit overwhelming. Let's set a small goal. We will first compete on behalf of the mainland and see if we can be shortlisted for the last nine movies!"

This year is the year when his adaptation of the movies broke out in collectively. At the beginning of the year, the British drama "Sherlock" angrily showed his presence. Now three movies are about to appear at the Cannes Film Festival at the same time. It is estimated that the rest of the actors who go to the red carpet have much more confidence.

By the end of the year, "Youth Pi" will still hit the Oscars, and perhaps "The Da Vinci Code" will also make trouble for the box office.

Compared to the release of "The City of Psychological Sin" last year, there are much more works this year!

It seems that not only the book market is going to explode, but also the film market has to dominate.

That’s how it is to accumulate strength!

The works I wrote carefully before were not filmed and produced this year.

"About it, you're really amazing. Even without the various income dividends of these movies, you can win the global writer income list with your book sales alone."

Zhou Kang looked at the young man who was eating bananas in front of him with a complicated expression. Who would have thought that he would reach the peak of the world in just a few years?

Zhang Chu smiled and said, "How is it possible? The income cannot be that high!"

"Why didn't you? Last year you earned more than 60 million US dollars, which is only 30 million US dollars away from being the first. After these movies are released this year, sales will not explode? I seriously doubt that your income will exceed 100 million US dollars this year."

Zhou Kang felt that this was not a strange thing. The writer's income was like this. The more works the higher the income, especially those like Zhang Chu who sold books.

Writing new books does not mean that no one buys old books to read!

As long as you have one of this type of work, you can retire safely, let alone so many.

Zhang Chu began to worry now, "You said if I really made so much money, how should I spend it?"

"How do I know, I don't have the troubles like you."

It is also a tragedy to have money and not know how to spend it!
