The Best Entertainment Era

The 77th Academy Awards ceremony came to an end, and Relativity Entertainment became one of the biggest winners of all film companies. Among the four most important awards, they won Best Actor and Best Picture Statue.

But these two statuettes could not be owned by Relativity Entertainment in the end. The former belonged to Will Smith personally, and the latter was awarded to the production company.

Even if the Embassy Pictures bought out the copyright of Crash, it is no exception.

However, the economic benefits brought about by the Oscar effect no longer have anything to do with the producers.

The other two statuettes will also not be kept by Relativity Entertainment, and the statuette for the best documentary is also owned by the producer.

The best original screenplay statuette, of course, belongs to Paul Haggis.

As the distributor of the film, Embassy Pictures will get the corresponding statuette replica.

At present, the Relativity Entertainment Building is also constructing and decorating a memorial hall, whose main function is to record those films that have left a significant historical imprint.

Oscar awards are only one aspect, and more are films such as Bourne, Pirates of the Caribbean and The Purge, which have made significant economic contributions to the creation and development of Relativity Entertainment.

After all, Relativity Entertainment is a commercial company, not an art institution.

After the awards ceremony, Ronan was temporarily alone, preparing to withdraw from the Kodak Theater and head to the Oscar Night party.

Scarlett Johansson came over.

Fortunately, you haven't left yet. Scarlett Johansson took Ronan's arm: There are too many people, it is inconvenient to come from the backstage.

Scarlett Johansson, who is only in her early twenties, looks bright and attractive. She is rich in capital and well-dressed when she is young. She is no less beautiful than the peak appearance in Iron Man 2.

Ronan led her out together: Just wait for me near the door.

Scarlett Johansson grabbed his arm tightly: Wait? Maybe you ran away with someone halfway.

In the aisle with less traffic, Ronan carefully looked at Scarlett Johansson: You are so beautiful tonight.

Scarlett Johansson leaned over and whispered, I just got a new tattoo, do you want to see it?

Ronan had no feelings for tattoos, but he would not interfere with others, so he smiled and said, Okay.

It's not convenient here. Scarlett Johansson's words were full of different meanings: I'll let you see it when I go back.

Ronan became interested and asked, Oh, can you tell me where it is?

Scarlett Johansson rolled her eyes: It's not what you think. Her voice changed suddenly: Actually, I considered getting your name tattooed on my body.

Ronan coughed in a low voice: That's really an honor.

When women tattoo their names on their bodies, they often only want to express one meaning.

If you were my boyfriend. Scarlett Johansson looked forward to it, Ronan, I would like to have your name tattooed anywhere on my body.

Ronan said, Tattoos hurt, right? I can't bear to let you hurt.

This is very nice to say,

But it fell into the ears of the person concerned, somewhat unpleasant.

Mr. Anderson?

The two had just left the side door of the Kodak Theater when someone suddenly stopped Ronan and Scarlett Johansson: Are you Mr. Ronan Anderson? Can you accept our interview?

Ronan looked at the reporter, with black hair and black eyes, he was obviously from the East.

You are? Ronan waved his hand to let the bodyguards around him disperse.

The middle-aged reporter quickly asked the photographer to come over, and at the same time replied: I am a reporter from Oriental TV's World Film Weekly. Can I ask you a few questions?

Scarlett Johansson was a little impatient: Shall we go to the party? I want to take the elevator...

Wait a while. Ronan comforted Scarlett Johansson slightly, and said to the middle-aged reporter: Two minutes, you ask.

In any case, there is always a special feeling towards people from the East.

Some things are not easily forgotten.

The middle-aged reporter hurriedly asked, and also changed the question to Chinese: Mr. Anderson, according to my understanding, you can speak very fluent Chinese, and you also have a considerable understanding of oriental culture.

Ronan also switched to Chinese: I can't talk about understanding, it's true that I'm very interested.

The middle-aged reporter smiled and said, This time at the Oscars, Ten Faces of Haze got two nominations for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Cinematography, but missed out. Your company once successfully operated the Ten Faces of Haze in the North American market. Heroes, can you talk about oriental movies and Oscars?

This question is very broad and not easy to answer.

Ronan thought for a while and said, It's not a bad thing, your movie doesn't need to be obsessed with Oscars.

The middle-aged reporter was quite surprised by these words, and looked at Ronan in bewilderment.

Thinking of the wonderful films that many directors have made for the Olympics, Ronan said appropriately: The Oscars have strong regional and cultural characteristics, just like other film festivals. Whichever country they are held in, they all have distinctive features. National cultural characteristics. It is also a good thing for your film to go international and enter the Oscars, and it is also a good thing to get nominated, but it is rare for films outside North America to win Oscars. Everyone is happy to get it. Don’t be discouraged if you can’t get it.”

The middle-aged reporter is an experienced person who thinks deeply.

Facing journalists from other countries, including North America, Ronan would not say so much at all. Prompted by his previous feelings, he further said: Your side and Oscar belong to a completely different cultural circle, and there is no need to cater to Oscar when making movies. Movies that suit your culture and market are good movies, and you don’t need to place too much emphasis on Oscar awards.”

His speaking speed is not very fast, and what he said is not in line with the mainstream for Eastern filmmakers in this era: Oscar is a Hollywood festival after all, very localized, very Hollywood, so Oscar is only set up for foreign language films. The Oscars are a big show for Hollywood movies to be seen by the whole world. Facts have proved that this show is quite successful, because it is Hollywood movies that really attracted the attention of the world on this show, so the whole world It's showing a Hollywood movie.

Is there an Oscar plot for Eastern movies that hit the Oscars again and again? The middle-aged journalists dare not say for sure, but they can see one thing very clearly: if a movie is labeled as a Little Golden Man, the box office will definitely increase significantly.

The middle-aged reporter couldn't help asking: What do you think Oriental movies should do?

Ronan shrugged slightly: I'm not too sure about this. I'm an outsider in the oriental film industry. In your terms, what you're saying should make your back hurt when you stand up and talk, right?

The middle-aged reporter couldn't help laughing. This person really understands oriental culture very well, so he hurriedly said, Mr. Anderson, please tell me from a layman's point of view.

I'm making a commercial film, so let's talk about it from this aspect. Ronan also hoped that his counterparts on the opposite side could avoid detours: For your side, the first thing you need to do is to win the love of Eastern audiences and develop the film market in earnest. , The development space of your market even exceeds that of North America. Do a good job in your own film market, don't worry too much, and work hard to make movies, and Hollywood may need to find you when the time comes.

The middle-aged reporter felt that the previous comments were very pertinent, but he didn't believe the last words, and just took them as politeness.

That's all Ronan said. This interview may not be broadcast, and it may not be listened to by anyone after it is broadcast. These are out of his control.

After waving his hand, a black Rolls-Royce Phantom drove over, and the bodyguard stopped the reporter who still wanted to nominate.

Ronan and Scarlett Johansson boarded the car one after another and rushed to the Oscar Night party.

It's rare that you speak so much to reporters. Scarlett Johansson was very curious.

Ronan smiled, and casually gave a reason: Because the film market in the East has a bright future, and they have a population of more than one billion, once the film market develops, it will inevitably become the second largest single film market in the world after North America in the future. .”

Scarlett Johansson subconsciously asked: Can they?

Ronan said kindly: Handle the relationship with that side well. Even if you are no longer popular in North America, with the support of a huge overseas film market in the future, you can still sit firmly on the front line of Hollywood.

The former bald fan can be said to be a typical example in this regard.

Scarlett Johansson is very shrewd in dealing with people, and she is ignorant of such things, but subconsciously thinks that what Ronan said must be right, and subconsciously remembers the concepts formed in the past few years.

When he came to the Oscar night party, Ronan went to say hello to Tina Brown and let Scarlett Johansson move freely. He wanted to talk to a few people.

But there was an endless stream of people who came to congratulate him, from actors to directors to producers, they came to make friends one after another.

Some even took the opportunity to promote their own projects.

After all, word had spread in Hollywood long ago that someone had successfully pitched the project at an Oscar night party last year.

But Ronan obviously didn't have the luck of last year, and didn't come across a project like Cherbellino.

No matter how he recalled the film projects mentioned by several directors and producers, he could not recall the relevant names.

Simply let them send the script directly to Shahai Entertainment.

After finally getting rid of the entanglement of these people, Ronan first found a quiet place, took a breath, waited until the people on the Aviator crew gradually dispersed, and then walked over, intending to talk to Martin Scorsese. talk.

If it were someone else, Ronan would definitely not show up in person, but at the level of Martin Scorsese, the director's status and price tag are basically very stable, unless he suffers two or three major films in a row.

The Aviator is not considered a success, which can limit Martin Scorsese's price tag to continue to rise to a higher level.
