Chapter 483: Award Ceremony
"Why is it called the Kodak Theatre?" Morgan. Lily couldn't help but ask curiously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Because this is the title funded by Kodak, it is called Kodak Theater." Su Dong smiled and touched Xiao Lili's head, and explained without waiting for the staff to speak.
This sentence was naturally nodded and certified by the staff, and the reason why this theater is called this name is because Kodak paid a huge naming fee.
You must know that after this theater was put into use, Kodak spent 74 million US dollars to win the naming rights of this theater, of course, at the same time, Kodak also needs to pay 3.6 million US dollars to CIM, the owner of this theater, every year, it can be said that this title is definitely a huge amount.
However, looking at the ubiquitous Kodak trademarks around him, the corners of Ye Sumang's mouth pulled up an inexplicable smile.
The original giant company has undoubtedly reached the end of its rope, and the traditional cameras and films have been gradually eliminated by the world, and they are not like to be in the way, conservative and conventional. Naturally, the market was gradually eroded by the cash digital cameras of the rest of the manufacturers, and when they reacted and prepared to transform, they found that it was too late.
In the United States, there is a competitor of Hewlett-Packard, and Kodak does not live up to the almost monopolistic market share at the beginning, and in the world camera market share, it is even more by Japan's Fuji, Nikon, and Canon. Sony and other camera giants are losing and retreating, and Su Dong can see that this company is in the twilight of the day even if he doesn't need to analyze it with detailed data, and it can even be described as a dead end, and in less than two years, I am afraid that he will file for bankruptcy protection.
Thinking of this, Su Dong looked around again, if Kodak went bankrupt, I am afraid that he would not be able to travel anymore to name the contract, and then Su Dong would have some thoughts of taking over.
After all, as the most influential film awards ceremony in the world, if you can take down the naming rights of this theater. Then it is undoubtedly a good publicity point, and it is also a symbol of strength, of course, the naming fee Su Dong must also be considered, if the other party regards himself as a wronged leader, Su Dong will naturally not be stupid enough to pay this money. I still have to make a good sum up with Su Tingcheng.
There are some things, pay and return always have to see profits, loss-making business. Let's not do it!
In the excited discussion of several young actors, the group finally walked to their positions. One of the round tables in the row closest to the Oscar stage.
As soon as Su Dong sat down, a person beside him accosted him.
"Su Dong, hello! I love your movie so much, really, I never thought that the love between children could be so touching, and Madeleine, you are really great, I hope we have a chance to work together. Catherine said excitedly.
Su Dong suddenly discovered that this beautiful director was still a talker.
Of course, this colleague also has a lot of ink in his belly, Su Dong tried his best to lead the topic to the director's profession, and the other party also had a *** conversation between Ye Sumang and inadvertently benefited a lot, the other party's Western-style directorial thinking really gave Su Dong a lot of new ideas, of course, Su Dong's oriental style also made Catherine full of interest.
"No wonder, I said that the love in "Heartbeat" seems to be free and easy, but there is a hint of subtlety, sure enough, the Oriental concept of love is so beautiful, maybe I really want to go to China to take a look and take a walk when I have time."
"Of course, the cultural heritage of China will not disappoint you." Su Dong said proudly.
Just when Catherine was about to say something, the time for the awards ceremony had arrived, and under the live camera, the two of them put away the topic and welcomed the arrival of this Oscar together.
Accompanied by classic music, the tassel-like ceiling in front of the stage was also instantly lit up, and the bright blue lights were very charming, and in the center of the stage, a large cylindrical prop surrounded by LED screens was also slowly unfolded. Martin and Alec. Baldwin and the two appeared on stage together, and this time the Oscars were hosted by them.
"Wow, this is the third time I've hosted this awards ceremony, but it's a pity that the organizers didn't give me a penny." Steve. As soon as Martin stepped out of the prop, he laughed and complained.
There was a burst of laughter below.
"I think this is the way it should be, it's already a face to be invited to come, do you have any works shortlisted" Alec didn't wait for Martin to answer before continuing to say viciously: "No, so you have to feel honored, otherwise you will have to pay for the ticket yourself." ā
The witty language of the two people made the laughter of the scene even louder.
Of course, the joke was only a small link, and soon under Martin's guidance, the hosting process entered the main topic.
"Welcome to the 87th edition of the Academy Awards, everyone wants to win an Oscar, but it's not easy."
"That's right, Alec, you know, the ballots were sent to the six thousand college award judges, who filled out the ballots, and then the organizers counted them, and of course I'm sure they all voted for Meryl. Ms. Streep's one vote. ā
"Why!" Alec asked, puzzled.
"Because she is the one who has been nominated for the most Oscars for Best Actress!" Martin replied as a matter of course.
Meryl sitting below couldn't help but cover her face with her hands, but the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't hide it, as the actress with the most Oscar nominations, Meryl is definitely one of the most powerful actresses of our time, Martin's words seem to be flattering but in fact they are also expounding a fact.
Of course, at this moment, everyone also applauded this powerful actress.
Su Dong was also clapping his hands with the crowd, but at this moment, things suddenly reversed, Martin suddenly added a sentence when everyone applauded, please be sure to use the adjective 'owe mouth', Su Dong's thoughts at this moment are like this, and this sentence also made the scene laugh again.
"I think she's probably the actress who has failed the most times."
Puff......
This very 'vicious' addition even Su Dong couldn't help but be stunned at the moment, not to mention the few young actors next to him, his eyes were almost not staring out, and then a burst of laughter sounded, and Meryl, who was the center of the topic, was angry and rolled her eyes Martin.
Just when Su Dong was also happy, a bad feeling suddenly hit, and then as if it had been fulfilled in an instant, he saw that Martin's eyes had turned to him.
......
The moment the Oscars began, the global live broadcast began.
"Hey, I didn't even think of it. So soon, Su Dong went to the Oscars! ā
"Obediently, just a movie to go in? And so many more nominations! ā
"Roar! Su Dong is so handsome! (To be continued.) )
