During this busy season, Ryan also accepted an invitation from the White House and flew to Washington to attend the annual White House Press Association dinner.

This is a decades-old annual traditional event for Washington authorities, where celebrities from politics, business, press, sports and entertainment gather together to spend a humorous night.

Here, you can see both the giants in the media industry, the stars in Hollywood and sports, the well-known media reporters, and some famous wealthy people on the Forbes rankings.

Of course, most of the top rich people are busy people, and they only show up every once in a year.

The White House Press Association dinner is usually held at the Hilton Hotel in Washington, DC and is held in the form of a formal dinner. Naturally, the speeches of the incumbent president are indispensable. However, in such occasions, the speeches are generally based on humor and self-deprecating, and do not raise too serious topics. The president standing on the podium is more like a talk show host.

Ryan sat at the front table, and from time to time he would applaud Summer Redstone and Rupert Murdoch next to him. After George Bush made a joke on the stage, the topic became a little more serious.

"Speaking something serious will remind us tonight that we are fortunate to live in such a country. Here, journalists can criticize national leaders every day without worrying, and then once a year, the federal president can fight back against the media and journalists here. We should stick to the tradition of freedom of the press!"

Everyone laughed and applauded, joked, joked with senior officials, and teased celebrities in the political circle. They have always been a repertoire of banquets.

Later, some well-known journalists and critics walked onto the podium, and various jokes continued to appear, and some even mentioned "Fahrenheit 911". No matter what, in this country that boasts about the so-called freedom of the press, they will never be convicted for criticizing the president's political decisions.

The pig-headed president sitting with Barbara Bush also looks normal. Shame is a must-have for politicians.

"Ryan, guess will he step down?" Summer Redstone looked at the side where the Bush family was sitting, and there was no expression on his skin-grafted face. "Maybe this is the last time Bush attended this banquet."

"Do you want him to step down, Summer?" Ryan also looked in which direction.

"Who knows." Summer Redstone gestured, "If his policies are in our favor, then continue to sit in this position."

"Bash's policies..."

Rupert Murdoch raised his glass to Ryan and said, "But our media is the most eye-catching program."

The three of them laughed tacitly.

The media will never represent the public's voice, just as the two people said. As long as it is beneficial to their group, they will not care whether a pig or a dog is sitting in the presidential position.

If a bomb now attacks this banquet hall, I believe the world will have less disputes in a short period of time, and there will be fewer remarks in the world that will temporarily fan the flames.

For most of the banquet, Ryan exchanged views with Somer Redstone and Rupert Murdoch. Although the three companies competed, their interests were of different focus, especially News Corp. The focus of their business was on traditional media.

Disney focuses on the film and television and amusement industries, and is actively developing its network territory.

George Bush also came here with his family to say hello. The media is an indispensable help in the presidential election and one of the main projects of campaign funds. It establishes a good relationship with the media group. It is a necessary course for every presidential candidate.

Although he has been doing some political donations in recent years, Ryan has no obvious political tendency. In this regard, he believes in interests more than politicians' guarantees.

The dinner was like that. Everyone wore a mask to socialize and chatted and laughed together.

This can only be regarded as an episode in life. Ryan returned to Los Angeles the day after the dinner. "Superman Family" landed on time in North American theaters with the support of up to $60 million in publicity.

As early as last year's "Looking for Nemo", "Superman Family" was highly anticipated, and many people wanted to see if Pixar Studios could create different screen superheroes.

To some extent, this is not a typical Pixar-style animation film, and it is also the first time Pixar Studio hired an external director to produce works, but what remains unchanged is the exquisite production and plot that is suitable for both young and old.

There are also some faint anti-mockery, especially the jokes about the Superman cloak, which will definitely be impressive.

What does Pixar Studio’s animated film represent? It is basically synonymous with excellent production and excellent and pleasing appearance. On the premise of ensuring the popularity of publicity, it easily attracted a large number of young audiences who have just begun their holidays.

Now Blue Sky Studio is still busy with the production of "Ice Age 2". DreamWorks Animation Studio's "Shrek 2" has not been completed yet. Warner Bros.'s "Polar Express" will not be released until the end of the year. Who can compete with "Superman Family"? Who can stop Pixar Studio's pace of progress?

"Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith" has been too long since its premiere. After the box office in North America exceeded $350 million, it can no longer attract a large number of movie fans. "Troy" only had a box office of more than $10 million in the third week, which obviously cannot do this.

"Superman Family"'s box office of $73.52 million on the first three days basically indicates that Pixar Studios will achieve another success.

After the movie was released, the members of the Superman family immediately moved into Disneylands and Disney stores around the world. The huge Disney animation family once again added important members who can make money.

The media also praised Pixar Studio's works as always.

"This is a great work, with ambition to introduce modern life, it is suitable for both complex adults and children, it is ironic but inspiring, it is a great work with infinite possibilities."

"People may be surprised to see how smart the film is, with such an unnoticed perception."

"One of the most clever and eye-catching animated films this year is more lively due to its powerful and trustworthy lineup, portraying a group of characters who happen to be superheroes."

This has almost become a routine. Pixar Studios' animated feature films were released, and the media praised it, and the box office was successful. The peripheral products were super popular. In the end, the box office and peripherals swept away at least more than $1.5 billion in wealth from the world.

It has been staged too many times in the past, so many that it makes people numb and envious.

How many people like you, on the contrary, how many people hate you? This sentence is not unreasonable. Many people in Hollywood think that Pixar Studio is over, so look at the embarrassing expression on Ryan's face.

If Pixar's movie was ended by a work that he rejected, it would have been even more exciting.

After the conversation with David Dembie two years ago, Ryan became one of the people who were disliked by veteran film critics, but unfortunately, with the acceleration of information circulation and the rapid development of the Internet, the profession of film critics, as Ryan said on the same day, is becoming increasingly difficult to affect movie fans and become more and more marginalized. Moreover, the newly emerging young film critics obviously do not want to confront a media giant, and they are always sing opposites to those of the older generation in their speeches.

Those veteran film critics who have enjoyed a film review and decided that a movie is life and death are naturally unwilling to withdraw from the stage of history. They have always wanted to find an opportunity to prove that their vision is still unique, far exceeding that of the guy who only knows how to commercialize and assembly line production.

Now, the best opportunity is here.

"King Arthur", a movie that was rejected by Ryan Jenkins, was released a week after "Superman Family". If the box office and reputation are excellent, it will undoubtedly reduce the other party's reputation, and the so-called unique vision will become a joke in the future.

Every industry has its own circle. Before the release of "Superman Family", more than a dozen film critics who were famous all over the United States participated in the "King Arthur" test meeting held by Sony Columbia Pictures, and then reached a silent tacit understanding.

Among these people are critics like David Denby who was directly refuted by Ryan in person, and famous characters like Roger Albert, who had just recovered from serious illness.

After the test film meeting, these people loudly applauded "King Arthur" in the column and tried every means to mobilize the movie fans to watch.

"The thrilling plot, breath-taking fighting scenes and great historical background will surely make for an unprecedented "King Arthur."

"The story is tragic, the scene is magnificent, the masterpiece of historical themes, and one of the greatest epic movies!"

Before the film was released, it attracted so many old-fashioned film critics to be praised by them. If it were placed ten years ago, it would definitely cause a sensation and attract a large number of viewers to enter the theater. These film critics did not care that this was a commercial film that they had criticized countless times in the past. For the sake of their interests, they would also throw away their previous positions without hesitation.

Fortunately, they still retain a little bottom line and did not slam "Superman Family", otherwise they would really make a big joke.

The veteran film critics once again made a consistent voice, and they wanted to prove that the industry should not be marginalized, their voices should not be ignored, their film reviews can still affect the box office performance of the film, and their vision is still brilliant.

Of course, they should also enjoy more benefits in the film industry.
