Chapter 51: Unscrupulous

"Look, it's that guy!"

"I just turned 25 two months ago, and now I am officially the richest man in Asia and the ninth in the world. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"You say, will it become the next Bill Gates in a few years?"

"Needless to say, at least Zuckerberg has ...... Alas. ”

When the 787, which was "intended to be the latest generation of Air Force One", landed at the Los Angeles airport, outside the barbed wire fence far from the airport, there were already countless paparazzi with long guns and short guns waiting for them, trying to take two photos for a few bones.

Gu Mojie actually came to Los Angeles more times than he went shopping with women, so he shouldn't have attracted too much attention. At the end of the day, it's his new plane that's too topical.

In order to curry favor with the president, Boeing originally took out the 787 with new materials and new technologies to offer treasures, but who knew that the horse's fart slapped on the horse's hooves, and the president did not like the non-wide-body cabin at all.

As a result, it fell into the pocket of Gu Mojie, a new human with environmental protection and love. Everyone knows Gu Mojie's character, and he likes fuel-efficient planes that emit less carbon dioxide. Obviously, there are only a few people on the plane, what is the width of 747 or 777?

As for whether the earthlings believe that Gu Mojie chose this plane really for environmental protection, it can only be said that it is really difficult to reconcile the crowd.

To paraphrase a very popular sentence in 2011: whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway.

Now the only Boeing 787 in the world stopped on the runway, and then the tail hatch opened, driving down a Porsche 918X, which is currently the only one on the earth, and Gu Mojie did not show his face the whole time.

"It's so boring, I didn't even get a picture of my face. The car is all bulletproof glass. ”

"What's this, that's it, it's all gone."

A group of paparazzi scattered as birds and beasts, and while walking, they have uploaded the video to the backstage of the website as the latest news release.

Gu Mojie's motorcade drove all the way to his villa in Beverly Hills, where a guest in Hollywood was already waiting for Gu Mojie. The servants of the Gu Mansion who remained in the United States would naturally serve the distinguished guests comfortably.

The 918x had just stopped in the garden, and before Gu Mojie got out of the car, a few people came out of the house. Gu Mojie, the servant and maid who stayed here, couldn't recognize it clearly, but when he saw that Quan Bao'er was also there, he immediately changed his smile to a kinder smile.

"You're here to entertain you personally?"

Bao'er smiled softly, and pointed sideways at a balding fat man next to her: "Well, I'll introduce you to Harvey. Mr. Weinstein, I don't need to explain much. β€œ

Gu Mojie nodded gesturely: "No, I've seen the photos many times, but I haven't seen a real person." Mr. Weinstein, I hope this collaboration is pleasant, and I flew all the way here, not to hear the nominations. β€œ

The bald fat man grinned very loudly, and smiled obscenely and confidently: "How is it possible, just call me Harvey, my credit, no one in Hollywood knows about it." Unless I'm not sure about taking this job, but whatever I do, hehe......"

A few people chatted, and then let them into the living room.

Before Gu Mojie came, he had already made a deposit of 30 million US dollars to Harvey, and asked him to help the lobby of Legendary Pictures and bribe votes. The goal is to push "Inception" to this year's Oscar for Best Picture.

Harvey. Weinstein is the biggest behind-the-scenes godfather of independent films in Hollywood, if he wants, he can find a CEO-level position in any of the six major distributors, but he just doesn't want to go, he feels that he will be bound by his position when he becomes CEO in a large company, it is better to do an independent film "Bole" and "Godfather" now, and he can praise whoever he wants.

Everyone on earth knows that the starting price of approaching him is $6 million a time - no matter what award, just take a nomination, as long as you work until he comes forward, the lowest price is this price, and people not only operate the Oscars, but also the Golden Globes. If the prize is high, of course, it will be multiplied.

Of course, those film companies in China also know the price, and they don't want to ask these people for help. The problem is that in many cases, if the quality of the movie is really not good, people will not take the job.

For Weinstein to take over the job, at least the film or the actors themselves must be enough to watch, and they have the potential for an Oscar. In the case that everyone is on the top, he helps you push.

"Best Picture won $100 million and nominated $20 million. The other small prizes are included, these are clear - and I hope you can make a little more money from me. β€œ

"Miss Kwon told me a long time ago. Now that the Golden Globe Awards have come out, it can be used as a weather vane. I have also explored several competitors the day after tomorrow, and basically the threat has been eliminated for you. The five films shortlisted this year will be these unsurprisingly. β€œ

Weinstein said, pulling a note from the table and pushing it in front of Gu Mojie.

The note was placed on the table, indicating that Kwon Bao'er had already read it.

Gu Mojie took it and read it carefully, which were "Inception", "The King's Speech", "Black Swan", "Social Network", and "Fighter".

Five films released in 2010 and participated in the 2011 awards.

Each of the Oscars is nominated for 5 nominations, and one is selected to win.

A brief look at the early votes, profile, and word-of-mouth at the Golden Globe stage, "Fighter" was completely uncompetitive, and the first one was excluded.

The Oscar for Best Picture is more or less forced, and it is not a box office hit to qualify. With a little art film flavor and a bit of political correctness, it's often good.

Among the remaining four films this year, "The King's Speech" is obviously a typical example of being shortlisted for political correctness, and "Black Swan" represents the toss of art films that "if you don't go crazy, you can't live", purely to win awards. The final "Social Network" is a documentary.

If history hadn't been changed, the documentary "The Social Network" would have been able to get the third most votes out of the five nominated films, following "The King's Speech" and "Inception". However, there is another butterfly effect in this, which has led to a great reduction in the competitiveness of this film.

This butterfly effect comes from the selection of materials.

The film "Social Network" selects Zuckerberg's legendary life experience as the theme. From Zuckerberg, as a sophomore at Harvard University, because he was hurt by his ex-girlfriend, when hackers hacked into the private information of the school's student information network, they distributed revenge on the campus network, and then was punished by the school, embarked on the road of rebellious campus social network construction, and then started a business to establish Facebook.

Originally, because of Zuckerberg's legendary life, the subject matter of this film is very story-based, and it is a rare film that takes into account the nature of a documentary and a better plot experience.

However, now that Gu Mojie has just become the richest man in Asia, he is better than Zuckerberg in all aspects. And both of them are in similar fields of entrepreneurship.

If this film is directly named "Zuckerberg", there may be three points. It's just called "Social Network" - filming social networks, but not filming the most awesome and legendary story in the social networking industry, is this a donkey to find a horse?

Then, of course, "The Social Network" was tragic, falling into one of the least favored positions in this year's nominations.

Only "The King's Speech" is qualified to fight with "Inception". The other party's reliance is undoubtedly "politically correct".

Gu Mojie didn't know that it was this film that finally topped the best film of the year in history.

The Oscars win the final award for Best Picture every year, and they are still very politically correct. In the past few years, from the anti-terrorism "Bomb Disposal Expert" to the "12 Years of Slavery", which reflects the racial issue, it is all a tone and hypocrisy.

"The King's Speech" is based on the passage of King George VI's "imminent order", during which he involved opposition to the FΓΌhrer, and naturally received rave reviews in the American media circles, where Jews prevailed.

On the plot and filming level, "The King's Speech"

In other words, this film just has no box office, no normal person watches it, and just licking good Jews is enough for it to win a few awards in Hollywood.

The most terrible thing is that this Harvey commissioned by Gu Mojie. Weinstein was a Jew himself.

However, Weinstein's dare to accept Gu Mojie's order also made him feel a little relieved.

Anyway, if things can't be done, you won't be able to get the follow-up money. Gu Mojie doesn't believe in Jews, and he really doesn't make money for such a broken shoe theme of fried corpses.

Gu Mojie gave Weinstein the bottom line from various channels: let a Chinese-funded film company win the Oscar for Best Picture for the first time in history, and the subsequent operation of various access relaxation and quota relaxation is easy to discuss. If you have to get in the way of Hatsune when you are one step away from the big prize, then wait for Hollywood blockbusters to enter the Chinese market in the future and face all kinds of strange encounters that are even more inexplicable.

The three of them chatted for a long time, and Weinstein explained some of his specific operational techniques for canvassing to Gu Mojie and Pan, which can be regarded as gaining the trust of others.

……

Every year, 4 days before the Oscar ceremony, the voting deadline is reached. Theoretically, from that moment on, the voting result was already preordained.

However, the organizing committee will ensure that this information is kept confidential, on the one hand, it will take a day or two to count the votes, and on the other hand, it will also arrange and adjust the award ceremony. Therefore, there is almost no case where the award information is leaked in advance.

With the exception of a few very powerful lobbyists -- such as Weinstein, the godfather of Hollywood commissioned by Gu Mojie -- he could confirm the final vote with the small leaders of the voters he lobbied and bribed. If those who took the money hadn't lied, Weinstein could have essentially counted the votes himself and deduced the final result.

Of course, there are times when they miss, and in this case, although the vote is by secret ballot, Weinstein has always had a way of deducing who took the money and did nothing in the past 20 years.

Then, that person will be hacked.

It's just that generally no one will take this kind of risk, and it's not cost-effective. I really didn't plan to support it, and I couldn't have been guilty of bribing the election money with that $200,000 a vote.

Gu Mojie has given all the money that should be given, and he has also taken care of what should be done, and the quality of "Inception" itself is not bad, so he will not be entangled.

An Oscar is nothing, what Gu Mojie wants is to set up a flag, which affects the choice of online information release for the entire domestic entertainment industry.

If history is created, there may be tens of thousands of entertainers who will turn off the promising Teng Xun Weibo from now on, or at least put it badly, and put their main energy on updating the official account of Chujian, so that the noose will be tightened step by step. (To be continued.) )
