Mark is a little strange, this Martin has always been speculative in the financial world, calling for wind and rain, why did he suddenly get involved in the media industry?

Martin made the ground a prison and let Mark stay in the media industry, which made Mark always think that Martin assigned this piece to him and let him toss, but now it seems that it is different.

What is Martin's purpose in controlling Time Warner, which raises Mark's concern, what should he do in this world, where Martin is by far the only threat to him?

In the battle to short the subprime mortgage market, a conservative and timid person like Mark made so much money, and the more greedy and bold Martin must have made astronomical money.

This demon has made so much money, he will definitely come out and make waves, Mark has a kind of idea that I will get rid of this thief for the world, but he doesn't have many cards in his hand, and the people he has cultivated have not succeeded, so he can't be used, what should I do?

Since he couldn't figure it out, don't think about it at all, this Martin controlled Time Warner and didn't show any hostility, and Mark decided to stay still.

"No Country for Old Men" is still being released, and he participates in various film festivals in a high-profile manner, but MM still strictly controls his distribution strategy, or releases it in a low-key manner, and does not expand the number of releases, which makes the industry estimate that they will not be released on a large scale until after next year's Oscars.

and MM Group's other Olympic work "Juno" Started to be released, this is just a small production of only six million, the production cycle is only two months of small works, this film is a complete small production, in a total of 8 theaters restricted the release of a week after the offline time, the total box office results are only a meagre 670,000 US dollars, but the dismal box office results do not mean that the quality of the film is necessarily rough, on the contrary, the film has an excellent reputation in all walks of life, IMDB's audience gave a high score of 8.5 to the film, and the film has frequently won awards in major awards. At the previous Toronto Film Festival, the film won the second place in the audience's vote. Later, he won another 200,000 euros at the Rome Film Festival, and for a time the director of this film, Jason Reitman, became the talk of the town, and the film also confirmed his future as a rising star in Hollywood.

Jason Reitman's father is Ivan Reitman who is left and right in Hollywood, the old Reitman has created blockbuster films such as "Ghostbusters", "Dragon Brother and Mouse" and "My Superman Ex-Girlfriend", and is a veteran director of Columbia Pictures, and Jason Reitman also entered the Hollywood film industry very early under the influence of his father, and compared with the old Reitman, Jason Reitman is more rich in his independent literary spirit, in 2005 Jason Reitman's independently produced small movie " Thanks for smoking, which uses the icon of a cigarette case as its main production element, has won widespread praise for its imagination and bold avant-garde originality, and critics have seen it as a declaration of independence for a future Hollywood superstar, and sure enough, the film has once again aroused more people's expectations for Jason Reitman.

Juno chose the theme of an unmarried pregnant teenage mother, but did not fall into the clichés of redemption introspection or rhetoric, Jason cleverly chose to use a couple who came to adopt a child and Juno, a girl who matured overnight, as the main contradiction object of the film, through the contrast between the two, the theme is positioned in the sense of growth, and in a way that is not heavy, the unexpected pregnancy of a girl is not an easy topic, and the soothing and calm attitude brings people a gentle sense of intimacy, which is also a major reason why the film has been well received. And the witty lines created by Deboro Cody also add a lot of color to the film.

Elaine Page, who plays Juno in the film, has just turned 20 this year and is a rising star in Canada. Aquarius has the obvious Aquarius preference for privacy and private spaces. For her, although acting is a public act of showing her face, the process of entering the role is still the best form of hiding herself.

This nature of liking to hide herself led her to develop a strong interest in acting at a very young age, and at the age of 10 she officially entered the entertainment industry. To date, she has played various roles in dozens of films and TV series, and has already accumulated double digits of trophies and nominations. This time she played the role of a teenage mother, and Elaine Page herself said that this role reminded her of her school days and saw the shadows of herself and her friends around her. In the film, Elaine Peggy is really natural and amiable, like the girl next door who perfectly interprets the role of Juno.

Since it was well received during the test screening, Columbia Pictures increased its investment in the promotion of the film, and his publicity and distribution expenses exceeded the production costs, of course, this is because the production cost is too small.

So far, MM has confirmed the three works that will hit the Oscars this year, "No Country for Old Men", "La Vie en Rose", and "Juno", hoping to continue last year's three-way army victory at the Oscars.

Mark Zhou returned to Los Angeles to attend his father David (Wang)'s new mansion move-in party, which is a super mansion in Beverly Hills, it occupies a large area, has its own swimming pool, garden and lawn, double-storey baroque style, has more than a dozen suites, has independent insurance and maid's accommodation, strict security system, very luxurious and magnificent, David, Sophia, Kayla they will live here in the future, this Mark couple, Martin Jr., Donald is moving out, but also kept the room, they all live here tonight.

Today, of course, is full of crowns, many Los Angeles upper-class people and top bigwigs have come, Mark and his wife have helped to greet guests, and Donald is a little less popular, he has brought his sister and nephew, he has a good time, and his new house is in place, of course he must rush back from New York.

However, to Mark's surprise, today David came to many relatives and friends, many of whom are well-known figures in the country, but David introduced him to a single one named Henry Lee and Xue Haipei, the latter knew what he was doing as soon as he heard the name, the chairman of the Chinese National Committee, and the former David introduced him as a celebrity in the San Francisco area, a well-known entrepreneur, and a social activist.

And David ceremoniously led them to his study for an introduction, which was unique tonight, David bluntly said that they were planning an action to initiate a government apology for the Chinese Exclusion Act, and Henry Lee was an expert in this area, and he had been working on this since the nineties.

Henry Lee was a tall man with a clear face and gray hair on his temples, and it could be seen that he must have been a handsome man in his youth, and he was a first-rate lobbyist with a coherent and eloquent speech.

Henry Lee said: "This law, along with other discriminatory bills, prohibits Chinese from having the right to vote, Chinese ownership of real estate in the United States, prohibits Chinese from intermarrying with whites, prohibits Chinese wives and children from immigrating to the United States, prohibits Chinese from working in government, prohibits Chinese from going to court with whites, etc., although the Act has been repealed, it has long been part of the United States Code, and its Title 8, Chapter 7 is entitled "Exclusion of Chinese" It is the only chapter in the 15 chapters of Title 8 (Foreigners and Nationalities) that is entirely focused on a specific nationality or ethnic group, which makes us Chinese inferior in law. ”

Xue Haipei said: "Many Chinese came to the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and made significant contributions to the economic development and development of the western region of the United States, but they suffered from racial discrimination and violence. It is not in line with the spirit of the constitution of the United States, the Chinese Exclusion Act has been repealed for many years and the injustice caused by these exclusion laws, but it has caused unimaginable suffering to us, this is the law that puts us Chinese in hell, we should unite and strive to make the United States government apologize, so that the Chinese and other ethnic minorities can enjoy the same civil rights and constitutional rights as other Chinese nationals. ”

Henry Lee introduced the results achieved in this regard, he said: "Actually, I was committed to promoting this movement as early as the 90s, but the effect was not very good, but through the Chinese National Association, we have reached an agreement, and many Chinese leaders have expressed their support for us, such as Ms. Zhao Meixin, former Washington Governor Luo Jiahui and other political leaders, we are not short of money now, but we lack the support of the media, and the emergence of MM gives us hope." ”

Whether it is David or Henry Lee and Xue Hailu all look at Mark with a look of hope, he is the big boss of MM, he can only do it with his nod, this is the first media leader of Chinese America, Mark may not be as rich as the other Chinese bigwigs, nor as powerful as Hongmen, but when it comes to influence, Mark dumped them a few streets.

Mark rose too fast to be able to rise quickly, and if he had time to settle like Lei Shidong and Mei Duo, he would be the leader of the clan and take the lead.

Mark said: "I'm just a filmmaker, I don't know anything about politics, you know, I'm not interested in politics at all, I've never been to political rallies and events, I'm not good at that." ”

Henry Lee and Xue Haipei could not hide their disappointment, which is not surprising, Mark came after the millennium, not a native ABC, there is no pain, of course he will not be interested in this kind of thing, Mark is in a big way, and he does not need to cultivate prestige through these things. ”

David said: "I don't want you to do it, just let you show your support, MM's media fully cooperates, what we need is the support of MM TV Network." ”

Mark breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I thought you asked me to take the lead in this matter, then I must not be able to do it, for this matter, I fully support, all the resources of MM can be mobilized, and our family fund can also support a part of the funds." ”
