Chapter 820: Tie
Chapter 820 is tied
There are a lot of media reports, but definitely not much, and they are not important pages, just a mention in the entertainment news.
Ordinary film festivals really can't get much attention.
Unless you wait for the three-day film festival to close and present awards, no one will pay attention to the film festival and talk about what awards the film has won.
It's a pity that the New York Film Festival has a total of one award, and no other awards.
The award of the award must be given to the film that is screened in its entirety.
In other words, neither Louis nor Jiang Xia will win this award.
In addition to the grand prize, there are quite a few small awards, there are more than a dozen, and the awards are not limited to the films screened in the whole film.
So in order to win, at least win the festival awards, Luis and his company and his team are working hard to win more awards than "Saw".
The film made by Louis was produced by Lionsgate, and in the field of cult films, Lionsgate still has a certain influence, and with the cooperation of the two parties, "Crazy Farm" has indeed become one of the most well-known films at the New York Film Festival.
Comparatively speaking, Jiang Xia's "Chainsaw" is a bit tepid.
Even if some media reported the news that Jiangxia might win without a fight, there were not as many people who really watched "Saw Horror" as expected.
Many people think that Jiangxia Jiutian made a movie with a cost of 1.3 million yuan, which is completely a trick to win, and if the quality is really discussed, it will definitely not be as high as "Crazy Farm".
With such a preconceived idea, it is natural that I will not choose "Saw Horror" to watch.
Even if the film festival is full of filmmakers and people from various film companies, they still have a deep prejudice against "Saw Horror".
In addition, Jiang Xia himself did not come to the film festival, and Paramount also ignored the movie, because cult movies were not Paramount's main course in the first place, if it wasn't for the boss's hand-picked and full support for Jiang Xia's movie, it is estimated that no one would be willing to make it, let alone think about producing it.
Hollywood's top companies have their own pride.
Three days later, the New York Film Festival closed.
In addition to the grand prize, "Mad Farm" really became the biggest winner, with fourteen small prizes, a total of seven, a full half of it, while the relative "Chainsaw" only won one, which is better than nothing.
It was also at this time that everyone found out that Jiang Xia was a thief.
Because Jiangxia's second gambling condition is that each film festival will compete, no matter how many awards you win in this film festival, you will only win one film festival, if you want to win steadily, you have to ensure that every film festival wins.
This means that there are only two film festivals, if there are more film festivals, "Chainsaw" may not have the opportunity to turn over, there are really seven or eight film festivals, who can guarantee that "Crazy Farm" will win every time?
Thankfully, there are only two film festivals.
Fortunately, Jiang Xia and Paramount did not canvass for votes to promote "Chainsaw", otherwise, it would have been as much fun as "Crazy Farm".
However, many people have already seen at this time that Jiang Xia seems to be deliberately making a bet on the film festival.
Jack Lucas asked Jiang Xia: "If you don't go to the film festival, aren't you afraid of losing?"
"I'm afraid of losing? Jiang Xia said, "I'm sure I'll win, the cost of Louis's movies is too high." When I knew he had two second-tier actors, I knew I had won. Unless my movie doesn't grossing 10 million at the box office, he's going to lose. I really don't believe that Halloween is such a good schedule, and my movie will be less than 10 million at the box office. ”
"Don't be too confident, this is a movie, anything can happen. Gonzalez said.
Jack Lucas also nodded, "That's right, anything can happen." The movies I starred in also had a box office of several million, which was something after I became a world-class person, which shows the unpredictability of the film market. ”
"What? After you are world-class, you still have a movie with a box office of millions?" Jiang Xia was surprised, "Your name alone is worth millions of box office, right?"
"It's true. "So, don't take it lightly. ”
"It doesn't matter, it's a big deal to go to school. But it's really unlikely that I'll lose, and although I haven't seen Mad Farm, I think my movie is still very good and it's unlikely that I'll lose. Jiangxia said.
"Then I'll wait, October 29th, right? I'll go and see it. Jack Lucas said.
"I'm definitely going to see it, too. Gonzalez said.
"Thanks. Jiang Xia said with a smile.
"I've got to give you some box office, and it looks better. Jack Lucas laughed.
"That's right. Gonzalez laughed too.
"You two, really. Jiang Xia said helplessly.
Jack Lucas and Gonzalez laughed.
For Jiang Xia's movie, the two of them are not optimistic, especially after knowing that Jiang Xia only took nine days to make a movie, they are even less optimistic, although the cost is not low compared to the time of nine days, but the time is too tight, how can it be possible?
Except for the group of people who really made movies with Jiang Xia, adding up to more than 20 people, no one is optimistic about Jiang Xia's "Chainsaw" at all.
Even after winning two awards at the film festival, it is difficult to change the impression of it for a while.
Jiang Xia is not in a hurry, and when the movie is actually released, he will know what the quality is.
In the previous life, this was a classic horror film that could earn 100 million box office worldwide in 2004, and six sequels in a row are enough to prove its unique charm.
Jiang Xia thinks that his movie is definitely not worse than the original, although the times are different, but the classic things will not be worn out by time, and will still shine with their due brilliance.
In mid-October, "Saw Horror" and "Mad Farm" were the last film festival before their releases.
Jiang Xia still didn't show up, and Paramount still didn't come to help promote, but this time, in the face of the four awards of "Crazy Farm", "Chainsaw" won three of them extremely powerfully, and the gap was only one award.
This undoubtedly puts a lot of pressure on "Mad Farm".
Louis also began to carry out further publicity, and in the remaining half a month, he must work hard to make the movie more popular, so that there may be some hope in the competition of returns.
There are three points of victory and defeat in the game, two have been decided, and it is currently tied 1:1, and the last point, Luis won hard, but there is also some hope, until the last second, he will not give up.
At the same time, Lionsgate also exerted its influence to get more horror films released on Halloween, in a vain attempt to squeeze the schedule of "Chainsaw" in order to affect its box office.
Under the unity, "Crazy Farm" is becoming more and more popular, and it has become a horror film that the audience has to watch on Halloween.
