Although the wedding is over, the popularity of this wedding has not ended, as a frequent visitor on the hot search list, Qin Feng once again dominates the list, and the news about the wedding is also flying all over the sky.

However, at this time, Qin Feng had already started a beautiful honeymoon time with his beloved wife.

After traveling for more than a month on their honeymoon, the two got on the return plane and returned to Beijing on November 29.

As soon as he came back, Qin Feng received a call from his assistant, saying that a public relations person from Warner Mi wanted to see him, saying that he had something important to discuss in detail, and then asked the assistant to arrange the time for half past ten tomorrow morning.

............

In Qin Feng's office, a gringo was pacing back and forth, occasionally looking at Qin Feng who was sitting on a sofa chair and drinking tea unhurriedly.

"Mr. Qin, I don't know what you're thinking?" Seeing that Qin Feng didn't feel so concerned about the topic of the Oscars he mentioned, Michael Sugard couldn't help but ask.

After taking a few sips of tea, putting down the teacup in his hand, Qin Feng looked at Mike and said, "There are not many people on this planet who are engaged in movies who don't like the Oscar statuette, and I am no exception. ”

"What about the best director?" Mike walked over, poured tea for Qin Feng, and continued to ask, "Are you really not interested in individual awards?"

Qin Feng thought for a while and said, "Mike, I'm only twenty-nine years old this year, not to mention other factors, do you think the academy will award the best director to a young man who has not yet reached the age of thirty?"

Even if they are Jewish, they have no experience of winning awards over the age of 30, looking at the Oscar winners over the years, all of them are forty, fifty or sixty years old, and the youngest is also in their thirties, but it is also very few, so if you want to win the best director before the age of 30, you don't have to think about it, so after "Interstellar" was released, Qin Feng didn't think about the Oscars.

"Although the probability of winning a prize is extremely small. Mike also agreed with what Qin Feng said, shook his head, and then said: "But it's still okay to get the nomination, and maybe a miracle will happen?"

When he watched "Interstellar" in the United States, Mike couldn't believe that this was filmed by the director of Huaxia, and later learned that this director was less than thirty years old, and he was even more surprised, and with many years of public relations for major awards, he saw the award-winning appearance of "Interstellar", so he came to Huaxia in mid-October, wanting to persuade Qin Feng to hand over him to be responsible for public relations, but it happened that Qin Feng got married, and the wait was more than half a month.

"Actually, the nomination is dispensable for me, and I believe that the nomination is not very difficult for Interstellar, but it is not possible to get the little golden man. Qin Feng said.

Mike also saw that Qin Feng was not uninterested in the Oscars, but he felt that his current qualifications were not enough, so he didn't think about it, and couldn't help but say: "Every nomination is a qualification, and some things can only be done before you know if it is possible." ”

Mike is also very confident and enthusiastic, after all, the annual awards season is the bulk of public relations income, so he will come to China thousands of miles to meet Qin Feng.

"A lot of things can be solved by PR activities, and Oscar is even more so," Mike then said to Qin Feng.

Regarding this, Qin Feng also deeply agreed, compared with the three major film festivals in Europe, which only consisted of more than a dozen jury, the Oscars, which were founded by the Academy of Film Arts and Sciences, were voted by more than 5,000 industry elites in the film industry of the academy.

The entire voting mechanism has been running for many years and has been continuously optimized, so after so many years of precipitation, the Oscars have also developed into a relatively fair and influential film award on the planet.

However, there is never absolute fairness in the world, there is only whether you spend enough money, so there is also a lot of room for operation behind the Oscars, after all, there are so many excellent movies, so many good actors, and good directors every year, but there is only one golden man for each project, so who to give it to? It depends on their respective public relations methods.

To this day, there are also famous Hollywood directors who scold the Oscars for being a political game, and some directors criticize the Oscars for being a person who recognizes and rewards people with strong communication skills and is willing to spend money.

These views may be a bit drastic, but they can also tell the truth. But your uncle is your uncle after all, he said let him say, I stand still, with the current influence of the Oscars, although there are some problems, he is still the most influential award on the planet, so after scolding, he is still obediently rushing.

And the Oscars like literary films, like to choose a few people's favorite, and in 90% of cases, they will choose to award to niche films.

So for the commercial sci-fi blockbuster "Interstellar", there is hope of winning some technical awards, but Qin Feng never even thought about some awards, because you should never underestimate the determination of those old men in the academy to choose the minority.

"Mr. Qin, I don't know if you've heard of Miss Annina?" Seeing Qin Feng shaking his head, Mike continued: "She is a member of the academy and a judge of the Oscars, and a member of the Producers Alliance. ”

"What is the price?" Qin Feng asked, after all, there is no free lunch in this world.

"She has a little hobby. Mike looked at Qin Feng for a moment, and then said: "She likes young and handsome men in this circle, and she has a hobby of stamp collecting. ”

Seeing Qin Feng's disgusting expression, Mike continued: "Of course, it's not that I want you to dedicate yourself, I just want to say that if you give enough money, I have a way to get him done." ”

Qin Feng was also speechless, and said, "Okay, let's talk about it, if I want to get the little golden man, how much specific work I have to do." ”

Although he is very eager for the little golden man, Qin Feng has not yet reached the level of being crazy about it, and for those who are open, it is okay to be happy, because one day he will make him bow his head to himself and call him big brother.

Many people have paid a lot to get the Oscar, such as Leonardo, who lasted for N sessions to get the little golden man, and only he knows the taste.

There are also some people who have reached the point of madness, the actor in 007, Judy, once tattooed the name of a judge on the buttocks in order to please the judges so that they could rush to the Olympics, and claimed that even if he was walking the red carpet, as long as he asked for it, she could untie her pants and let people see the tattoos on her buttocks, in order to win attention and publicity, these are some epitome of the various bizarre phenomena behind the Oscars.

Mike thought for a moment and replied: "According to the miracle created when "Interstellar" was released, the pull film will be able to save some, and then carry out various promotional activities, public relations parties and public relations banquets, in short, in front of the Hollywood media, film critics and Oscar judges. ”

Hearing this, Qin Feng felt that his head was a little big, and he knew that it was far more troublesome to actually do than Mike said.

Mike went on to say, "PR isn't just about the Oscars, it's also about the vane awards before the awards season, which can increase the chances of nominations and awards. ”

"What are the weather vane awards?" Qin Feng didn't know much about and asked.

"I'll tell you some of the main ones. Mike looked at Qin Feng and replied, and then continued: "The National Film Independent Spirit Award, or the Film Critics Association Award, as well as the National Review Award, and the Directors Guild Award......... Wait a minute. ”

When Qin Feng heard that there were so many awards, he couldn't help but sigh that it was not easy to win an Oscar.

"The Critics' Award and the Guild Award are the most important. Mike said.

After speaking, Mike picked up his coffee, took a big sip, and then continued: "If you can get nominations from the three major film critics associations and unions, plus some public relations tools, the probability of being nominated for best director at your age is more than 90 percent." ”

Qin Feng also picked up the tea, took a few sips, then thought for a while, and asked, "If that's the case, will I have to focus on this in the next few months, and I won't be able to do anything else?"

"If you want to secure nominations and win awards, this is the safest way, so if you think about it, you can go to the United States immediately and fully cooperate with my arrangement. ”

"Wait. Before Mike could finish speaking, Qin Feng interrupted him and said, "Mike, I haven't agreed to do this yet. ”

Seeing Mike's puzzled expression, Qin Feng continued: "My time and energy are very valuable, as you can see, I am a director, but at the same time I am also the chairman of a company, so my time is limited, and I will not waste such a long time on this kind of PR game..."

Having said so much, it's just that Qin Feng is too lazy to waste such a long time and energy for an Oscar, and he can't be 100% sure of winning the award.

The final result of the discussion was that Mike was responsible for public relations activities, and at the same time cooperated with some of Warner's public relations, after all, the two sides cooperated twice, and Qin Feng would attend some very important activities, and Qin Feng needed to pay as much as 35 million US dollars in public relations fees.

If you want the horse to run, you have to give it enough grass, although the public relations fee of 35 million US dollars is very high, but Chen Yongren is not short of this money, if he can really win the award, then what he gets is not what this money can measure.

After signing the agreement, Mike also left for the airport to run errands for Qin Feng.

The reason why he trusts Mike so much is not only because he is an employee of Warner, but also because the assistant has also investigated him, and this person's public relations skills are indeed very strong.

was busy until more than seven o'clock in the evening, after dealing with everything, Qin Feng also went home, although he spent more than a month on his honeymoon, Qin Feng still missed Zhang Zifeng for a while.

When I got home, I finished the meal together, and after taking a bath, I returned to the room tacitly, and the two were no longer young men and women full of romantic feelings, without any burden in their hearts, and quickly overlapped.
