The Best Entertainment Era

In the small screening room at the Beverly Hills club, a screening of Heroes was still going on.

Like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero is not dubbed in English, but has English subtitles as standard, because it wants to hit the Oscar for best foreign language film.

Unlike the other side of the Pacific, people here are very unaccustomed to subtitles.

Moreover, many lines translated into English cannot express the profound meaning of the original version at all.

The difference between Hero and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is really too big.

The script for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was first written in English to ensure its Western-style core, and then translated into Chinese.

When writing the script of Hero, of course, the issue of English translation was not considered first.

If a person has no name, he can concentrate on practicing swords!

One person's pain is no longer pain compared with the world.

Frankly speaking, the lines of this film are really well written.

And the film itself is also very characteristic, the beautiful picture is very attractive.

The fight full of oriental artistic conception in the film is very emotional, giving full play to the advantages of light and shadow, as well as the advantages of color.

It can be said that many scenes in Heroes express endless poetic flavor.

Compared with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, this film is more suitable for oriental audiences.

How many oriental viewers did the former sleep with?

It's just that I don't know how many North American audiences who don't understand oriental movies will regard this movie as a super magical movie.

After all, in terms of the content shown in the film alone, these swordsmen are much more powerful than the members of the Fellowship of the Ring.

Gandalf in white robes with a sword in one hand and a stick of wisdom in the other will also kneel when he sees it.

This is a serious fantasy blockbuster.

Faced with the publicity of ordinary movie fans, Embassy Pictures also played the banner of a magical masterpiece early on.

After the video session, David Villa of Embassy Pictures invited the guests to a nearby banquet hall, followed by a reception.

In this so-called film promotion meeting, the screening is the situation, and the relationship is the reality.

If you don't know how to engage in public relations, you will lose many Oscars.

I didn't expect that.

Navas from Lionsgate also accepted the invitation, and said to Ronan, You have another oriental fantasy movie.

Ronan smiled and said: There is no way, City of God can't compete with you, so we have to find another way.

Navas said: This film is more magical than Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. He tentatively asked: Your goal is also the best foreign language film?

The video conference is going on, and Ronan has no need to deny it, saying: There is consideration in this regard.

Lionsgate is also pushing 'City of God' for Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars, Navas said.

You have an advantage in the subject matter. Ronan said casually, It would be great if we can get a nomination.

Navas was very wary of Ronan, and said specifically: I hope we can compete healthy.

Ronan said: I've always paid attention to fair competition.

Connie, who was following Ronan, was silent, um... her boss really likes fair competition.

The atmosphere at the reception was very lively. Accompanied by a translator and a public relations officer, Director Zhang kept saying hello to people. He hadn’t turned half a circle, and only felt one word—tired!

Not only physically tired, but also mentally tired!

If it's in China, in Asia, even in Cannes, would he need it?

But the distribution company and public relations personnel said that this is only the most basic thing if you want to win an Oscar, and there are more troublesome things in the future.

Director Zhang thought about it, he is in China, what film awards can't be easily obtained?

challenge! right! He needs a challenge!

As long as there are challenges, he can maintain a vigorous creative life.

Once there is nothing to challenge, the whole person will slack off.

There are quite a lot of Chinese who came to the scene today, but all the Chinese who are famous in Hollywood have received Ronan's invitation, such as James Huang, Ang Lee and Liu Yuling.

in addition,

Personnel who are not of Chinese descent are also screened, and Ronan will certainly not let those Hollywood rightists come to add trouble.

Ronan has been the most Chinese-friendly producer in the industry for these years. On the one hand, this is due to his special experience, and on the other hand, it is because of the sycamore tree that he can attract the Golden Phoenix.

There are quite a few talented Chinese in Hollywood.

After Navas left, Ronan saw Ang Lee chatting with Director Zhang and walked towards him.

Good evening, Ronan. Li An took the initiative to greet.

Ronan smiled and shook hands with him: Long time no see, Li.

Ang Lee and Ronan are also familiar, and asked directly: Is this film going to be the best foreign language film?

Ronan whispered, The goal is to be nominated.

Ang Lee nodded: With the current situation in Hollywood, it is very difficult for pure oriental films to win awards.

This is an objective reality. Of course Ronan understood, and said, Yeah, so it's fine to get a nomination.

He changed the subject and asked, Is The Hulk finished?

Not yet, but soon. Li An looked exhausted: There are only some finishing touches left in the post-production.

Ronan said: This is your first commercial blockbuster, don't forget to notify me when it premieres.

No problem. Li An replied.

Appearing in front of Ronan, Li An was considered to have responded to Relativity Entertainment's invitation, and quickly said goodbye and left.

Looking at Ang Lee, and then looking at Director Zhang, Ronan knew very well that in terms of Oscar alone, Ang Lee's advantages were not comparable to that of Director Zhang.

Ang Lee has long been Westernized and has settled in the United States all year round. In addition to Westernizing his thoughts, what is even more Westernized is his interpersonal network.

Take the Oscar public relations of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon as an example. Ang Lee can have breakfast with the old Oscar judges in the morning, visit famous film critics in the morning, call and solicit votes for Oscar members and friends who have worked with him at noon, and accept media in the afternoon. reporter interview.

These are the interpersonal networks that Ang Lee has woven in Hollywood for ten years.

Ronan was thinking about how his family should deal with the release of Hulk next year.

On the one hand, it is the Hulk's film and television copyright issue, and on the other hand, it is the director Ang Lee.

It is undoubtedly the most ideal result to get back the copyright of Hulk from Universal Pictures, provided that Hulk is going to be miserable enough.

Ang Lee's future value is very high, and the film adaptation rights of that novel are already in the hands of Shahai Entertainment. If Hulk really hits the street, there are actually not many choices left for Ang Lee.

For a director whose reputation and status in the United States or other Western countries is similar to that of Ang Lee, a movie, even if it is a top-tier production, will definitely have an impact on the street, but it will not face near-desperate difficulties.

But for Chinese directors, this problem is not so big.

Ronan saw Alan Horn from Warner Bros. Pictures and went over to say hello. Alan Horn didn't come alone tonight, and there was a girl who looked sixteen or seventeen years old beside him.

Considering Aaron Horn's status and his current public appearance, this cannot be his little lover.

Kodi, this is Ronan, the boss of Relativity Entertainment. Alan Horn took the initiative to introduce: Ronan, this is Cody, my daughter.

Ronan nodded with a smile: Good evening, Miss Horn.

Just call me Cody. Cody Horn smiled with a pair of rabbit teeth, showing good family education in her gestures: Nice to meet you, Uncle Anderson.

Ronan was somewhat embarrassed: I'm not a few years older than you, so call me Ronan.

Kotie Horn smiled, stood beside Alan Horn and stopped talking.

She is tall, looks very quiet, has the most common brown hair in Western women, and always has a faint smile on her slightly tough face.

Alan Horn said: Kotie just finished high school and is very interested in both acting and screenwriting, and has played a few small roles. Ronan, if you have a suitable role on your side, please take care of Cody.

Ronan said: Alan, you are too polite, as it should be, I will let you know if there is a suitable role.

With a boss who was CEO at a Warner Bros. production company, Kotie Horn started well above 99 percent of Hollywood actors.

However, the nieces of top executives of major Hollywood companies rarely become first-tier or even second-tier stars, and a good family environment will lead to lack of motivation for struggle.

In the past, it was not that people with backgrounds like Cody Horn made their way in Hollywood, but they mostly regarded it as an interest, purely for fun.

Kotie Horn smiled and said, Thank you, Uncle Anderson.

Ronan touched his nose and reminded again: You should call me Ronan.

Sixteen or seventeen-year-old American girls are mostly quite mature. To be called uncle by such an old man would really call someone old.

Ronan feels that since his body is young, his mentality should also be young, so that he can have unlimited motivation.

While Roan was chatting with Alan Horn's father and daughter, two Chinese men quietly came nearby, and the older one was James Huang, who had restarted cooperation with Shahai Entertainment.

The other person was younger, short and thin, with a childish face under the slightly messy black hair.

Ronan is busy. James Huang whispered, We'll get there later.

The short Asian was a little nervous: Is a big man like Ronan Anderson easy to get along with?

James Huang looked at his companions and knew what he was worried about. He said, Don't worry. The bosses of these Hollywood film companies really want to find someone who can treat Asian filmmakers equally. Ronan Anderson is probably the only one.

That's good, that's good. The short Asian rubbed his hands to relieve the tension in his heart: I came here from Australia with great difficulty, and I always want to find someone who can treat us equally.

James Huang understands this mentality, why didn't he do it back then.

Therefore, after being recommended by an old friend, he brought him to find Ronan.

There is no need to worry. James Huang said again: Ronan not only treats Asians equally, but also likes horror movies very much.

He saw the father and daughter walking away and pulled the Asian man: Go, let's go.
