Chapter 63 The Source of Benefits [Subscription Requested]

A routine gun article in "USA Today" is aimed at Caesar, but the people who are unhappy are Caesar's fans.

A die-hard Caesar fan contributed to USA Today in Rolling Stone magazine, and interestingly, this outrageous article, which was like a battle pitch, was published in full by Rolling Stone.

This incident is enough to show the attitude of the rock world towards Caesar's debut band album, which cannot be said to be appreciated, at least affirmatively.

Caesar argues that these professional sunspots actually contribute to their own popularity, and they don't even realize it.

This is the unique limitation of people who have not gone through the Internet age.

In the Internet age, almost everyone knows what hype is, that is, hiring two groups of people to scold the street for a certain person or product, the more fierce the noise, the better, and the more disgusting the scolding, the better.

It's best to see the scolding between the two sides on all social platforms and mass media, and in this way, the target person or product can't be popular.

In order to maintain exposure and topicality, for these trolls, more disgusting means are not an untouchable bottom line.

However, without the influence or even training of the Internet age, several CEOs, led by Disney's Eisner and Sony Columbia, are still using the most traditional to create negative news to achieve their goals.

In the face of this backwardness, Caesar didn't even bother to contribute with a slight smile, and threw aside "USA Today" and "Rolling Stone" since he watched it.

A lot of times he feels sorry for his opponents, that's all?

"Are you here to get down to business, or are you here to have fun?"

"You'd better try harder, I don't feel it at all."

Caesar couldn't help but think of the boss of the WOW Dark Temple dungeon in his previous life, "Mother of Sahras", which is a classic line that makes people think about it and ambiguous.

Ignoring the senseless but happy harassment of the other party, Caesar focused on "The Silence of the Lambs".

After a very brief psychological struggle. He handed over the filming of the film to the director of the original version of "Jonathan? Demi".

This "The Silence of the Lambs" is destined to be an ambitious award-winning film, and the four main awards of Best Picture, Best Actor, Actress, and Best Director are basically a sure thing.

It's a pity that if Caesar directs in person, although the other three awards can be won in full, the best director will not know who will be cheaper at that time.

The nineties was still a time when people all over the world were full of the American dream, and there were always refugees from third world countries who were full of all kinds of beautiful fantasies about the United States.

However, the truth often brings tears to the eye. The fact that the United States' national strength and international standing have indeed made it "more likely to succeed than any other country."

However, it does not mean that this country is really based on strength, and the phenomenon of seniority is a common social phenomenon from Japan and South Korea, which are the strictest, to the United States.

In the end, the Oscars still belong to a group of people with an average age of over 60, and in their eyes, Caesar is too young, that is, born in 1968......

If the best director is given to Caesar, who is only twenty-two years old, don't say that these old people can't get by emotionally (people win the best director at the age of twenty-two, and they can only be a judge after a lifetime in the film industry, what kind of life do they have). Even the other directors who were nominated will react strongly, and if they don't make any bad bad shady or other negative news.

Although many of these old guys secretly joined the Caesar Club, were invested by Caesar, and made a lot of money, which can be regarded as the shortest cannibalism and the shortest hand of others, but it is too scary to win the best director at the age of twenty-two.

So when they heard that Caesar was going to make an award-winning movie, these old guys hurriedly sent representatives to greet Caesar in advance.

It's not that we don't act righteously! It's a scary thing. No one dares to break this rule.

Caesar is certainly not the kind of person who is difficult to be a strong man, let alone a best director. It's not a Nobel Prize in science, with the copyright of the screenplay or novel of so many award-winning films, can those director awards still fly?

In Caesar's heart, the award that is truly worth showing off is the highest award in the scientific community. This is the award that deserves to those who have made outstanding contributions to humanity.

It stands to reason that since Caesar admires the Nobel Prize so much, and he has a database of his previous life, he can mix a scientific Nobel Prize with a paper of any awesome achievement, but Caesar did not do this.

The Nobel laureates are all human beings who have transcended borders and races. Plagiarized their prize, and Caesar would have died of shame.

In short, Caesar did not covet the false name of "the youngest nominee for Best Director", and exchanged the award for the original winner, although the other party did not know it.

The identity of screenwriter and producer is Caesar's position in this film, although it is an adapted screenplay, but the award for Best Adapted Screenplay is equivalent to Caesar's direct reservation.

The best adapted screenplay may be the lightest among the main creative awards, and it is most suitable for the twenty-two-year-old "immature" Caesar.

It doesn't require seniority like Best Original Screenplay, because Best Adapted Screenplay is a very lucky award, which is based on the fame and story framework of aid.

If you are lucky, you will receive "Schindler's List" and "Forrest Gump" and the like, and you will become an instant hit with the re-creation of the original work, and if you are unlucky, you will receive "The Shawshank Redemption", and you will be nominated and then returned.

Even the old guys in the academy recommended that Caesar aim for this, and this kind of painless award is most suitable for Caesar at this age.

In the end, the two sides reached a perfect insider deal, as if the award was so decided...... Come to think of it, the Oscars are all about that.

Caesar flipped through the database of his past life in his mind to look at the Oscar awards, it can be said that the shady scenes are unfathomable, and it can be said that they all deserve their names, and there is a reason for winning the award.

For example, the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy" was killed by "A Beautiful Mind" in the first part and the second part by "Chicago", which caused a frenzied attack by Lord of the Rings fans.

Although the third part finally opened the Grand Slam, the Lord of the Rings fans have always been haunted, but in the eyes of the old guys of the academy. Why do you want to win Best Picture three times in a row for your trilogy? You think you're The Godfather?

Even if the 1 and 2 of "The Godfather" both won the best picture, it was not a succession of awards, and the middle was separated. It's good that your Lord of the Rings has been screened for three years, like a series, and you still want to win the best picture in a row?

As for films like "The English Patient" and "Shakespeare's Love History", which were box office pouncers but unexpectedly won awards. It can be said that it took a lot of effort for the academy to suppress the restlessness of the fans.

As for Hollywood's film practitioners, on the contrary, they are the most open-minded people, and everyone knows that winning awards cannot all rely on strength, and there are many cats in it.

If you don't get the award, you have to question it, and everyone knows that you want to make trouble, so don't do it at all, it's more reliable to practice sprinting, laser measurement ranking, and the error is less than 0.0001 seconds.

But even in the sprint event, the referee can't make a ghost. Can't stop people from using stimulants? It's useless for the referee to buy it, and the urine test before and after the game can be bought to get the prize softly.

What is the name of the so-called legend of the American cyclist, "strong arms", uh...... "Armstrong", isn't it just that he won the championship by doping? The result?

If it weren't for the fact that this product had exploded on his conscience, would it have been exposed by the urine inspectors?

As long as it is human beings who do the work of judging, judging, adjudicating, and auditing, there can be no absolute fairness.

Why aren't movies and games rated in some countries? After grading, it has changed from a one-size-fits-all yes and no to a flexible difference between 18+ and 18-, and the relevant companies that come up with the work will greatly reduce the research efforts of the reviewers, and it is a big deal to settle for the next best thing to sell or release with 18+......

In the face of this situation of greatly reduced judicial power, changing dogs in this department will also choose to reject the grading system.

Comrades, do not be nervous. The country in Caesar's memories is about the Fat Kim family.

So in the face of this shady, especially as a beneficiary. Caesar gladly accepted the offer.

The point is, even if it is not decided, the 1991 Oscars will not be able to find any decent films, and Caesar certainly accepts this benefit with peace of mind.

The biggest feature of this kind of insider trading is that the two parties will be tightly tied together with each transaction and become a community of glory and loss.

The Caesar Club offers the college's veterans large investment dividends from reasonable and legitimate sources. Even their descendants can be used endlessly, and they will not let Caesar's films suffer too much in terms of awards, no matter how you look at it, it is a win-win situation.

The construction of the crew and all the preparations in the early stage are all Judy? Foster led the team to complete it, and the personnel were still the original cast of "Pulp Fiction", but the actor was replaced by Anthony? Hopkins. Is the heroine Judy? Foster himself, directed by Jonathan? Demy.

Of course, as a director with style, Jonathan? The first condition that Demi agreed to direct was that he would bring his own team.

Caesar agreed, whoever you like to bring with you, except for the hero and heroine, you can't change, please feel free.

Jonathan? The reason why Demi agreed to direct is also because he is Thomas? Harris is a fan of fiction, and when Caesar asked him to direct "Silence," he said yes without even thinking about it.

The only thing that made Caesar feel awkward was that the other party did not change the photographer, and used Pete, Caesar's royal photographer, but invited a Japanese director of photography, Tucker? Lianas.

This general movie fan may not know him, but when it comes to his director of photography and cinematography, Caesar has been thunderous in his previous life.

"The Philadelphia Story", "The Omen", "The Sixth Sense", ...... Not to mention other films, just these three, Caesar gave a death order to Pete, play life!

Since he is a director of photography, he must teach me a lesson, not only to know what it is, but also to know why it is, and to squeeze out every bit of photography knowledge on him.

Pete naturally didn't dare to slack off when he received the order, and he clearly knew what kind of shit luck he had taken to become Caesar's royal photographer. So when there is no schedule, stealing teachers and learning from various studios under the banner of Caesar is his vacation method.

Now that he's heard about a higher-level DP, he certainly won't miss the opportunity.

In fact, he got one thing wrong, and that was Tucker? Fujimoto is not taller than Pete, but the style of photography is completely different.

Tuck? Fujimoto is more suitable for "heart-walking" films such as "The Silence of the Lambs" and "The Sixth Sense", where he uses the lens to figure out and express the psychology of the characters accurately and deeply.

Pete is more suitable for Marx? Payne's "kidney-walking" style, he uses the Caesar-esque high-contrast black-and-white shots and silhouette shots. Gradually, he summed up and sorted out a completely own photographic style, which is much more advanced than the concept of most photographers of this era.

Of course, you can't be mistaken, it is the "kidney", the kidney that secretes adrenaline.

The set has been set up a long time ago, since it is a twentieth century Fox film. Naturally, the set has to be in their own studio, let alone Judy? Foster's efficiency and rigor are much better than Caesar's.

If it weren't for the Goldfinger, just by virtue of Caesar's identity as an otaku who could only do some 4399 mini-games in his previous life, in the field of movies, the two Caesars would not be Judy's opponents, not to mention that this Judy has been transformed by Caesar now.

Anthony? Uncle Hopkins, everyone is in his fifties, and he also deserves to be Uncle Caesar, although the combined age of Caesar and the two generations also "knows the destiny of heaven".

This uncle likes the role of Dr. Hannibal very much. Although there are not many shots and lines, he is definitely a key character who deeply affects the direction of the plot, not to mention that the setting of "Cannibal Doctor Hannibal" is really emotional, and reading it together with the original novel and script makes him want to stop.

When Caesar, the producer (paper man, big idler) felt the set for the first time, he saw Uncle Anthony holding the script in the corner and savoring it.

When Caesar approached him quietly, the look in the other party's eyes when he looked up really startled Caesar.

"This feeling of being targeted by natural predators is really strong." Caesar couldn't help but exclaim.

"Oh? Do you really feel this way? Anthony put away his cold gaze, which was directed at people's hearts. Put away the script and talk to Caesar with a kind face.

In Uncle Anthony's heart, the young man in front of him is not only a screenwriter and producer. It is also his own big benefactor.

A platinum member of the Caesar Club, this status is now unlimited in Hollywood.

In addition to the core members at the highest point, the founder's level, the platinum members are already the highest level of membership in Hollywood, and have many benefits and priorities in the club's investment projects.

Although Caesar never asked for anything because of his status as the president of the club, all members who were actors basically tried their best not to refuse Caesar's film offer.

It's like the old men of the academy who took the initiative to help Caesar design the order and path of winning the prize. In the face of tangible benefits, all of them showed instinctive initiative and enthusiasm for these gestures.

What Caesar himself didn't know was that the "Caesar Club" was the most terrible weapon in Caesar's hands in the eyes of all competitors.

And the most lacking thing about this club is its irreproducibility.

If anyone thinks that they can also start a club, isn't it just an investment fund? Leave legal issues to a lawyer to exploit the loopholes. All that's left is to invest with the money of these stars, how simple it is.

It's really simple, and the more you think about it, the easier it becomes.

The question is what to invest in? Stocks and a range of financial derivatives? Who can guarantee that their investment will be profitable? Warren Buffett? Soros?

Let's not talk about why Buffett and Soros take you to play, even if they agree, most of them are long-term investments, like Buffett in Caesar's memory is to buy cheap stocks, and his vision is extremely accurate, such as Coca-Cola, but Buffett's investment will definitely not be a 100% success rate.

If you want to make a lot of money, no one can do it without losing a hand, unless you buy those stocks that everyone knows will rise every time, but unfortunately this kind of stock is impossible to make a lot of money, unless you buy a large amount and hold it for a long time, and become a shareholder who can pay dividends.

However, this defeats the original intention of these stars to invest with Caesar.

As for Caesar taking them to gamble/ball, bet/box, and bet/horse, they felt Caesar's unfathomable.

What kind of huge energy is behind it to make money on these projects? Is it time to control the game?

In fact, the major gambling companies around the world have never stopped investigating Caesar, but there is no trace that Caesar has been in contact with the contestants.

What's more, Caesar is not the kind of gambling method that makes the other party bankrupt, and it will always leave a lot of profit space for the gambling company, but the frequency of betting is particularly high, and the high guessing rate is scary.

To put it another way, it's like Caesar takes a cut of the world's major gambling companies with a very high frequency, only a small part at a time, although it doesn't seem painful or itchy, but it doesn't bite people.

And in the long run, this is a lot of wealth.

Every time someone helped the gambling company to talk to Caesar, Caesar's answer was always the same, and it was summed up in one sentence.

"Did you pay it?"

……

As a result, the other party has nothing to say, especially on the Vegas side, even if they win a lot of money in the face of those foreign gamblers who come to travel suddenly and win a lot of money, they will respectfully give people huàn chips, and even take care of the personal safety of their families, and even escort them out of the country.

Everyone wants to eat a fat man in one bite, and even wants to kill every guest who wins money in the desert, and then take the last steel hammer from the corpse.

It's a shame that this is probably the golliest casino run in the world, just as stupid as the fishermen who overfish illegally.

So the gambling company has no way to face Caesar, and people don't bet too much, and it's not a 100% win rate, but the win rate is higher than others, why do you engage people?

What's more, you have to be able to do it, is the big boss of Blackwater Global Defense that you can do it if you want to?

Not to mention the relationship with the Pentagon, just say that a long time ago, the security personnel and security systems of more than half of the casino hotels in Las Vegas were replaced by Blackwater Security and Blackwater Security Systems. Take the dice and throw Caesar in the face?

The entire Caesar Club, gambling alone makes all members flock to it, how many sports events are held in the world every year? How many wins and losses are generated each week?

Anthony? Hopkins is the most popular among the members, he is not a gambler, he just likes the feeling of winning, and if he loses, he is definitely not the kind of person who is not convinced and clamoring to turn it over.

If you lose a little more, he won't play.

Therefore, as a member of the Caesar Club, Anthony can enjoy the happiness of a high win rate for a long time.

Is it really a little less to win $20,000 or $30,000 a week? In the long run, is it really less?

So just gambling is a benefit, and the attraction of the Caesar Club is the highest in the world, and there is no one. (To be continued......)
