Chapter 373: Counterattack (4400+ chapters, ask for subscription~)
"Director Wu, it seems that today is destined to be your lost night!"
When Zou Wenhuai saw Wu Jianye, he showed a faint smile, and there was a hint of narrowness in his expression, and now the relationship between Fengge Entertainment and Jiahe is very complicated.
The two sides have both cooperation and competition, but now Fengge Entertainment's momentum in Xiangjiang has steadily overtaken Jiahe, if Jiahe does not have the golden sign of Cheng Long, I am afraid that even Xinyicheng will be inferior.
"Each other, each other!" Wu Jianye said with a smile, Golden Harvest did not win anything at the Academy Awards this time.
"I'm afraid Director Wu didn't come here just to say hello to an old man like me, right?" Zou Wenhuai said with a smile.
"Haha, it's still Zou Lao who is amazing, isn't it, the "True Story of the Crazy Guy" invested by our company won the best film at this Academy Awards, in order to celebrate Fengge Entertainment is preparing to hold a grand celebration dinner on the Peninsula, isn't this to invite Zou Lao and the stars of Golden Harvest!" Wu Jianye laughed.
Zou Wenhuai's eyes lit up, "Director Wu is going to declare war with the Academy Awards." ”
Wu Jianye smiled: "It's impossible to declare war, but since the other party thinks that we are not so important, then there is no need for us to go to their celebration banquet again!"
Zou Wenhuai said: "Fengge Entertainment has a big career, and there is the support of Yaoguang Group behind it, so I am naturally not afraid, but now that the influence of the Academy Awards is getting bigger and bigger, we Golden Harvest do not have such a big background as Fengge Entertainment......."
Old guy, sure enough, if you don't see a rabbit or an eagle, the influence of the Academy Awards is gradually strengthening, but it is impossible to say that Golden Harvest is afraid of the Academy Awards, and now I just want to benefit from myself!
"In the first two years, Golden Harvest had the intention to let Aaron develop in Hollywood, but the result was a little unsatisfactory, if Hollywood's Phantom Entertainment was willing to cooperate with Golden Harvest, with Aaron as the absolute protagonist, and jointly shoot a movie, I don't know what Zou Lao thinks about this matter!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Zou Wenhuai's ambition is very big, when Li Xiaolong was there, Zou Wenhuai seemed to rely on Li Xiaolong's status to create a world in Hollywood, but unfortunately Li Xiaolong died young, and then Golden Harvest launched Cheng Long, and a few years ago, Cheng Long was pushed to Hollywood, but Cheng Long was unaccustomed to the soil and soil, and there was no way to integrate into the Hollywood production model.
and did not get the corresponding respect, and in the end, it naturally collapsed.
But this does not mean that Golden Harvest is determined to develop in North America, but Golden Harvest is an outsider to Hollywood, because of Hollywood's xenophobic urine, although Golden Harvest has taken out a huge amount of money, but in Hollywood there is no real boutique film investment, can only look for some independent films.
As a result, except for making some money on the movie "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", Golden Harvest's other investments all ended at a loss.
It can be said that North America is the psychological pain of Golden Harvest, I originally thought that Hollywood was a bewitching beauty who could be conquered in the past, but the other party was a big man, and he beat Golden Harvest back with three punches and two kicks.
Phantom Entertainment is now Hollywood's most powerful independent production company in addition to the Seven, which can be said to be prestigious, in the New Year's file that has ended in North America, Phantom Entertainment's "Home Alone 4" once again achieved a box office of $146 million, and the global box office is also as high as $213 million, although it did not achieve the expected goal, but its investment ratio is still the envy of the Seven.
If it can really be related to Phantom Entertainment, then it will definitely be a good move for Golden Harvest.
"What is the relationship between Director Wu and Phantom Entertainment?" asked Zou Wenhuai tentatively.
"Zou Lao forgot, the main investor of "The Last Emperor" is Phantom Entertainment, and Phantom Entertainment has always wanted to expand the market in Southeast Asia, I myself and Linda, the general manager of Phantom Entertainment, are also good friends, if Zou Lao's time allows, I can arrange your meeting immediately!"
Wu Jianye looked at Zou Wenhuai with a smile, there was such a big piece of cake in front of Zou Wenhuai, and he was not afraid that he would not take the bait.
As for Cheng Long's development in Hollywood, it was indeed Cheng Long and Hollywood who were not accustomed to the soil at the beginning, but in another time and space, as Cheng Long became more and more stable in Southeast Asia, the film and video tapes he shot were even more popular all over the world, and Cheng Long finally had autonomy and filmed "Red Fan Zone" with his own style, officially entering the mainstream film market in North America.
It's a pity that Cheng Long was 41 years old at that time, and he missed his golden age after all.
If Cheng Long can enter Hollywood in advance, first, it can improve the influence of Chinese people in the world, and second, Phantom Entertainment can also have one more trump card.
Golden Harvest has little influence in Hollywood, which means that if Golden Harvest wants to make a name for itself in North America, it must be attached to a strong company.
As for the later period, after Jiahe relied on Cheng Long to create a reputation in Hollywood, it wanted to stand on its own, and it had no impact on Phantom Entertainment, because Phantom Entertainment would only be more powerful at that time.......
"Haha, since your company's "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" won the best picture, I should be congratulated, and I and the artists of Golden Harvest will personally go over to celebrate Director Er Dongsheng later!" Zou Wenhuai suddenly laughed.
Seeing where Wu Jianye was talking and laughing with Zou Wenhuai, Yu Zheng's heart became more and more uneasy, and he wanted to go over to inquire about the situation, but saw that Wu Jianye had separated from Zou Wenhuai.
And at this time, as a representative of the Academy Awards, she is also going out to answer questions from reporters.......
So Yu Zheng didn't see it, after Wu Jianye and Zou Wenhuai finished talking, they came to Lei Juekun again.
Although Lei Juekun is the big boss behind the scenes of New Arts City, and there is also a real estate company, the most important asset for Lei Juekun is actually Kowloon Bus.
It's not that Kowloon Bus makes a lot of money, Kowloon Bus belongs to the public utilities of Hong Kong, and there are clear regulations for its interests, but as long as Kowloon Bus is in hand, it can help Lei Juekun promote his own real estate company, and Lei Juekun has also gained a lot of benefits in the past two years.
In addition, Kowloon Bus is the family business of the Lui family, which was founded by his father, and the Lui family's affection for Kowloon Bus can be said to be very deep.
It's just that now Lei Juekun's control over Kowloon Bus is getting weaker and weaker, because in 81 years, Sun Hung Kai has already invested in Kowloon Bus Company, and in the face of a giant like Sun Hung Kai, Lei Juekun can only sigh with admiration.
Lei Juekun's image is not like the big boss behind the scenes of an entertainment company, but like a general who fights and kills, and he is very majestic.
"Director Wu, it's just an Academy Award, you don't have to take it so seriously, not this time, come back next time!" Lei Juekun said loudly.
Wu Jianye said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if the award is not awarded, anyway, it has passed, but the next thing is more important, our Fengge Entertainment is ready to hold a celebration banquet for "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" tonight, and now we specially invite Mr. Lei and many actors from Xinyi City to participate." ”
Lei Juekun's expression was clear, and then he smiled: "Director Wu is going to make the Academy Awards lose face, but Director Wu may not know that as a domestic director, after this awards ceremony is over, you will go back, but our new art city will continue to develop in Xiangjiang, so I am embarrassed to hand over the Academy Awards, so tomorrow, how about I personally set up a banquet for Director Wu?"
This is also the attitude that Lei Juekun only had after he knew that Wu Jianye was the big boss behind Fengge Entertainment, if Wu Jianye was just an ordinary mainland director, it is estimated that Lei Juekun would not talk to Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye did not look dissatisfied because of Lei Juekun's refusal, "It's a pity, originally for this celebration banquet, our Yaoguang Group also invited Boss Guo of Sun Hung Kai, it seems that Mr. Lei has no chance to meet today!"
Lei Juekun's expression became a little uncertain, the news that Yaoguang Group holds 6.36% of Sun Hung Kai Properties' shares has long been publicized by the Xiangjiang Securities Regulatory Commission, this shareholding has exceeded the shareholding of the vast majority of Sun Hung Kai shareholders, and it is one of Sun Hung Kai's major shareholders.
And there is news that Yaoguang Group is still continuing to acquire Sun Hung Kai shares in the stock market, if the Yaoguang Group behind Fengge Entertainment really comes forward, then Sun Hung Kai's Guo will definitely want to give face, thinking of this, Lei Juekun's face showed a strong smile.
"Haha, since Director Wu has personally spoken, our new art city can't help but give face, and after a while, our new art city will arrive on time!"
"Then I'll welcome Mr. Lei's fight!" Wu Jianye shook hands with Lei Juekun with a smile and said.
Huang Baiming, the bald guy, and the three new art city giants of Ishida, who were standing behind Lei Juekun, were also full of thoughts in their hearts at this time, none of them thought that Wu Jianye, a director from the mainland, would have to compete with the Academy Awards, and at this time it seemed that he still occupied the front.
This Wu is not easy to mess with at night!
After Wu Jianye chatted with Zou Wenhuai and Lei Juekun, he returned to his crew position and said with a smile: "Let's go!"
Although Zhao Fei and the others didn't know what Wu Jianye was doing, they saw him giving orders at this time, and they also walked out together.
When they walked out of the venue, the lights were still flickering outside the venue, and countless reporters and media were waiting outside to interview the actors, directors, and singers who came out of the venue.
At this time, Yu Zheng was also surrounded by a lot of reporters, Yu Zheng said with a smile on his face at this time: "This year's Academy Awards is very successful, bringing together excellent films from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, as well as outstanding film practitioners, it can be said that this is a progress of Xiangjiang Films, and we will be more confident in the development of the Academy Awards in the future." ”
"At this year's Academy Awards, there are two films that are inextricably linked to the mainland, one of these two films has won five nominations, one has won six nominations, but in the end they only received zero eggs, is this because the Academy Awards have to consider the influence of Wanwan, do you have any concerns?"
Yu Zheng looked at him, and then said with a smile: "Of course not, the selection of the Academy Awards is absolutely fair, and I am very sorry that the two films "The Last Emperor" and "Fire Dragon" failed to win the award, but I can only say that the selected films for the Academy Awards this time are all very excellent films. ”
"By the way, after the award ceremony, our Academy Awards will hold a celebration banquet at the Regent Hotel, and all the participating films will participate, I think it will be a grand gathering for filmmakers from across the Taiwan Strait!"
As Yu Zheng's answer ended, the reporters also saw Wu Jianye and others who had just walked out of the venue.
immediately surrounded the past, although there is another movie "Fire Dragon" in this, but what virtue Li Hanshen has in Xiangjiang, everyone has known for a long time, the old fritter is one, and he can't ask anything at all, and don't look at Li Hanshen is one of the most awesome directors of the older generation in Xiangjiang, but after all, it is only in the past, how can there be a topic of conversation in Wu Jianye now.
Yu Zheng naturally also saw Wu Jianye, she had already thought it out just now, although Wu Jianye was just in the venue, announcing that she was going to hold a celebration banquet for "The True Story of the Crazy Guy", but she thought that as long as she handed Wu Jianye two soft words in the past and showed him the concerns of the Academy Awards, there should be no problem.
After all, now that the Academy Awards have become the climate, Fengge Entertainment should not make too much trouble with the Academy Awards.
"Director Wu, just now Yu Zheng said that the films shortlisted for the Academy Awards this time are all very good films, do you agree with this statement?" a reporter asked.
Wu Jianye said with a smile: "Of course I agreed, the Academy Awards are a local film award in Xiangjiang, and those who can be shortlisted are naturally excellent films!"
After Yu Zheng heard Wu Jianye's answer, his heart regained some calm, Yu Zheng had already decided that if Wu Jianye couldn't afford to be a moth at this Academy Awards, the next Academy Awards would properly compensate Fengge Entertainment.
But apparently, the reporters were not prepared to let go of Wu Jianye like this, or let go of the grievances between Wu Jianye and the Academy Awards.
"Since Director Wu admitted that the shortlisted films this time are all excellent movies, but the movie "The Last Emperor" directed by Director Wu did not win a single award, does it mean that Director Wu has admitted that his films are not as good as other movies?"
"Director Wu, just now during the live broadcast of wireless, the host of wireless once doubted whether the movie "The Last Emperor" was suitable for the aesthetics of Xiangjiang audiences, do you have any good response to this evaluation?"
Faced with the problem of the media's long guns and short cannons, Wu Jianye said with a smile: "There is no doubt about the excellence of "The Last Emperor", no mother will say that her child is ugly, as for the fact that "The Last Emperor" did not win the award, I can only say that it is the regret of the Academy Awards, not the regret of "The Last Emperor"!"
"Wow!"
As soon as Wu Jianye's words came out, they immediately aroused the exclamation of the reporters present, and no one thought that Wu Jianye, who was still humble and polite just now, would directly bombard the Academy Awards, saying that this is not the regret of "The Last Emperor", but the regret of the Academy Awards.
But that's what makes the reporters even more excited.
"At the same time, I also have reservations about the opinions expressed by the host of TVB, there is no right to speak without investigation, this is a truth that even children understand, he didn't even watch the movie "The Last Emperor", he said that this movie does not meet the aesthetics of the Xiangjiang audience, I can only say that he is irresponsible to the Xiangjiang audience, as the largest TV station in Hong Kong has made such an unprofessional comment, I doubt the professionalism of the wireless!"
Wu Jianye's words were like two depth charges, directly smashing many reporters at the scene.
"Director Wu, are you bombarding the difference between the Academy Awards and the unprofessionalism of wireless?"
"If you have to think so, I don't have an opinion!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Many reporters showed ecstatic smiles, Wu Jianye and the grievances between the Academy Awards and wireless, they didn't care at all, but such explosive news can bring extremely high sales to their newspaper, which is certain.
Yu Zheng's face had completely sunk, she didn't expect Wu Jianye to be so ruthless.
But what surprised her even more was yet to come.
At this time, Jiang Zhiqiang also walked out, stood beside Wu Jianye, and said with a smile: "Because of the excellent box office of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" invested by our company, we decided to hold a grand celebration banquet at the Peninsula Hotel later, and all reporters and friends are welcome to participate at that time!"
Jiang Zhiqiang didn't say that he was celebrating that "The True Story of the Crazy Man" won the Best Film at the Academy Awards, but that he was talking about the excellent box office.
At this time, many reporters are recalling that the box office of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" is very high?
