Chapter 37: Ambition (Part 2)

For an award, credibility and authority are, of course, the most important.

The Oscar is so hung and recognized as the world's number one film award.

Needless to say, credibility and authority, the key is to promote the film after winning the award!

According to the data, after being nominated for the Oscar, the number of films released will increase by 200 to 500, which is a real benefit!

For actors, if they get the best actor, their salary will also double.

However, for an actor like Xiao Lizi, whose salary is already the limit, winning the actor may be a way to prove that he is an acting school...

The devil knows what he thinks...

The Golden Globes are a lot worse in this regard, and the Oscar, the highest award in the film category, and the Emmy Award for TV series.

For the sake of ratings, it can only be considered in terms of entertainment, so there must be no shortage of superstars!

Almost every Golden Globe Awards nominates big stars.

For example, Tom Cruise has won the Golden Globe twice!

In the past few years, the development of the Internet has made it impossible to hide information, and the Golden Globes no longer dare to be so entertaining, closely following the pace of the Oscars...

Therefore, what Jenny said, Pao Hui thought was ridiculous.

Jenny smiled awkwardly and changed the subject: "... Many fans want you to make more movies like Once Upon a Time in China, do you have that in mind in your future shooting plans?"

“… In the next two years, I will shoot a new series, which tells the story of the rivers and lakes and the court, with obvious oriental characteristics, and I guess Western audiences may not like it very much. ”

After thinking about it, Pao Hui added: "But I may make an English film later..."

"English films?"

"The story that happened in Italy, the film and the coming-of-age story, I love that story!"

"Oh, you're not making action movies anymore?"

"There's always going to be something else, it's going to get boring in normal position!"

……

"Cinema Paradiso" is perfect, and even now, it's an absolute classic.

About New Year's Friendship, about youth, about love, about sincerity.

Xu Hui really wants to put it on the screen.

It takes a long time for a film to go from project establishment to appearance in the eyes of the audience, generally speaking, this cycle is about two years.

For a director like Xu Hui, who has a particularly obvious commerciality, if he wants to shoot a literary film, the actors invited are all absolute big stars, and he must prepare in advance.

After the interview, Xu Hui immediately went to Beverly Hills to visit Al Pacino.

He wanted the great god to play the role of Everdor.

Al Pacino, a living legend, as one of the best living actors in this world right now, doesn't need to prove his acting skills!

His status in the American film industry can be proved by an example: in "Friends", Joey got a chance to play "Al Pacino's ass", that is, his backside nude appearance, Joey couldn't help himself...

Pao Hui is also not sure to convince him to star in "Paradise Cinema"...

It can only be said by eloquence, for example, 'This story takes place in Sicily', or 'I would love to make the most authentic Italian flavors'

The old man is of Sicilian descent.

When Al Pacino first started his career as an actor, Marlon Brando gave him two pieces of advice: don't go to court and don't move to Los Angeles.

He followed the first piece of advice, but in order to share custody of their now-15-year-old twin daughters, Anthony and Olivia, with actress Beverly D'Angelo, Pacino violated Brando's second advice and moved into Beverly Hills.

This is a good thing for Xu Hui, through Disney, Xu Hui contacted the old man.

If he lives in New York, Pao Hui will have to fly to New York to meet...

……

Almost three hours later, Xu Hui left Beverly Hills.

It doesn't matter what the two communicated, what matters is that Al Pacino agreed to play Everdo.

(I don't know what I'm going to say!!) )

Xu Hui said the approximate shooting time of the movie, the spring of 13...

The schedule was very tight, so I returned to the hotel, and under Mu Hua's reminder, Xu Hui and Wu Jing took a car to Los Angeles - Wanda was warmly invited.

Wang Silian's father is amazing!

The richest man in China on the bright side!

Red-capped merchant!

In 09, he began to lay out the United States, and what Lao Wang wanted to do was a global entertainment company, rather than simply building a house.

In fact, when he was in China, Wanda had already contacted Huiwen Tianxia and expressed the idea of a full acquisition, but Pao Hui politely refused.

Now, Pao Hui came to the United States to participate in the Golden Globe Awards, and Wanda made an appointment again, and it was estimated that he still wanted to cooperate.

After all, Pao Hui is a director who can sell movies to the United States today.

This alone is enough to pay attention to Wanda, which is still trying to invest in upstream film and television production.

However, Wanda is not a legendary film company that was acquired in 16 years, and their current goal should be a theater chain, right?

……

The person in charge of Wanda North America is Liu Zhaohui, one of the four King Kongs of Wanda.

It was in this hand that Wanda completed the acquisition of AMC Cinemas, and Wanda Cinemas became the world's No. 1 cinema chain.

has the theater chain in his hand, it is said that Wanda doesn't need to deal with Pao Hui, no matter how awesome you are, Lao Tzu won't let you get on the movie you made, what can you do with me?

After arriving at the scene, Xu Hui understood that these people may simply think that it is a very strange thing for "Once Upon a Time" to be nominated for the Golden Globe Award, after all, the films that rush to the Olympics every year are arranged by the General Administration, and "Once Upon a Time" does not occupy the quota of the General Administration, and people are following the path of Disney...

This alone made many people curious, Wanda just wanted to meet Xu Hui and Wu Jing.

All the mental construction work along the way has been done in vain!

It's a loss that he still treats himself as a dish, and people don't regard Huiwen Tianxia or Xu Hui as opponents at all.

Even Wu Jing is more popular than Pao Hui, and many high-level executives surround Wu Jing to listen to him tell interesting stories about the filming of the movie...

It's embarrassing!

In other words, Pao Hui has never been so ignored.

He has always felt that he is very good, and the movies he has made are more popular than the last, and half of the entertainment industry has been bombarded, but compared with these big guys, it is a fart!

A casual business starts at a billion dollars.

Xu Hui's most profitable movie so far, the box office of "A Man Should Be Self-Improvement" has not reached 1 billion yuan, to put it simply, he and Wanda are not of the same magnitude at all!

Cooperate?

Fit your sister's work!

In the past few days, the cannon glow has been a little floating, and several movies have been sold in a row, no matter how calm you are, it is inevitable that you will unconsciously elevate yourself.

He didn't want to think about it, without Xu Laowei, he could shoot so many blockbuster works by himself?

People, they will always realize their insignificance when facing people who are more powerful than themselves...

However, Pao Hui's heart was filled with more ambition.
