Chapter 205: One Shot and Two Scattered
"The first step is that I'm not going to go to the Ballon d'Or, and everyone thinks I won't do it, but they should know not to mess with a 20 million club member who is only 23 years old."
……
Daniel. What about Sandler?
When did he walk the red carpet and what, he didn't go? Why?
All the viewers who watched the live broadcast, whether they were fans of Daniel or not, expressed their curiosity about Daniel, who never appeared - the "big hit" was gone.
The fans at the scene looked at each other, seeing that the red carpet session had ended, and Daniel still did not appear, if everyone was still sensible, this year's Golden Globe Awards would probably become the first news that fans would storm the venue.
Ever since the red carpet came to an end, the discussion on this topic has been hot.
The most frequently asked question is: What happened?
Like them, the people who were sitting at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony did not whisper to Daniel, of course those who understand know why, and those who don't understand can guess as long as they are not stupid.
Little Daniel smashed the table!
The Golden Globes, with only 10 judges, are among the most susceptible to manipulation, and many of their members need to get news from Hollywood and send it to their bosses abroad. Many people even get high rewards by taking pictures of big stars - generally, a Golden Globe judge asks you for a photo, unless you're really good enough to get tom. Hanks, otherwise it's really unlikely to ignore.
This is part of the criticism of the increasingly utilitarian Golden Globes. When these members joined the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, they were still reporters, editors, and so on, and then once they joined the association and had Golden Globe votes, there were so many places where they could make money in Hollywood, and a lot of people started to cut back on reporting and go to things that were easier to make money, which meant that these people were easily swayed by profits.
But. This time, they were deflated.
The president of the association, Dagmar. Dunleavy is throwing a tantrum with executive producer Lorenzo.
"Is he crazy? Doesn't he want to win the Golden Globe for the rest of his life? Call him and tell him if I don't see him when I present the awards. He will never receive an invitation to the Golden Globe Award again. ”
Lorenzo seemed helpless against the grumpy chairman.
"Dagmar, if Daniel cares what you say, there's no way he won't show up. Even if he's playing petty, isn't it possible that Kusa. Damon, Tricker. Are they all fledgling rookies? They will tell him the consequences. But now, he really didn't come. We couldn't reach him in person, Cusa's phone didn't work, and Trick insisted that Daniel couldn't attend, and we couldn't do anything about it. ”
"So, what do you mean?"
"He's obviously got the winners, Dagmar, and this time everyone did it too blatantly." Lorenzo's brow furrowed together, "The question now is, Nielsen's real-time ratings data. It fell by 15 percentage points directly from the red carpet, and it continues to do so now. ”
Dagmar didn't say anything stupid about "never dictating who the Golden Globes had to go to", and as the two people who benefited the most, they were as familiar with all of this as the route to the toilet at home.
The two looked at each other, and found that they had nothing to do.
Of course, the Golden Globes can't be so vulnerable, and the easiest way for them to deal with it is, whoever it is, the ceremony will continue. Hollywood doesn't stop turning around without anyone.
However, Dagmar is not at all without rivals at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a mixed and intertwined organization that has no dictatorial roots in anyone. If the Golden Globe Awards because of this wave. If his credibility is seriously questioned by the outside world, then the other members have good reasons to step down. Especially young Theo. Kingmar was watching him with fierce eyes, one of the few ambitious and upright men, who were very unhappy with these very old and greedy people. He wants to make the Golden Globes even greater and more valued.
This is the first year that the Ballon d'Or has been moved to mid-January, a full month earlier than usual – all thanks to Theo's commitment to driving the change. In order to make the Oscars in the Golden Globes a little further away, to prevent it from becoming more and more the first weather vane of the Oscars, rather than one of the independent and influential Hollywood awards. Obviously, changing the unhealthy tendencies in the Foreign Correspondents' Association is also what Theo wants to do. Hell, in Dagmar and Lorenzo's view, with the addition of young blood in recent years, the proportion of those in their seventies and eighties has become less and less, and Theo's argument has gained more and more support.
This trend has now become irreversible, which is one of the reasons why Dagmar will allow everyone to be so presumptuous this year - who knows how many more years they will be able to catch.
"Well, I'm helpless now, am I?"
Lorenzo nodded, "That's pretty much, if Daniel sticks to it." ”
"You contact Weinstar and Scott. Rudin, tell them, all this, tell them that the Golden Globes can't stand this kind of surprise, they have to put Daniel on the table together and then come up with a convincing reason to tell the audience why he didn't walk the red carpet and why he was late. ”
Not far from them are the two main masterminds behind this year's Golden Globe Awards - Harvey. Weinstein and Scott. Rudin.
Of course, they had long noticed that Daniel did not show up.
"That lucky little brat, playing tricks?"
"I don't know, but if he really doesn't come, there's a big problem." Harvey glanced around, the ceremony had not officially begun, and at this time everyone was chatting, but many were obviously absent-minded. Daniel is no longer a simple little person, think about his titles again, click on the Internet to see his popularity and discussion. MB, this year's actress is a big hit Nicole. Kidman only has 630,000 followers, and what about Daniel? 6.5 million! That's more than 70% of the active users announced by MB.
In other words, even Vice President Cheney has registered an MB with 70 percent of the people who are paying attention to Daniel's daily trivialities, what he ate, who he took pictures with, his views on the war, and so on. Even the F.B.I. had to speak softly and hopefully that he would pay attention to his wording and intensity when expressing his opinions.
And if he vents on MB because of this, and even says something hidden in the shadows, then Harvey can almost guarantee that the media is going to start partying.
"I need to give him a call, Rudin, see no, this is the prerogative of young people, you can do whatever you want."
"But you can't help but say that he did a good job, and if he comes, you can only endure it, and whether you want to give him a little compensation depends on your mood. But now, as if you were calling God, you have to ask Him to change his mind. Rudin's rhetoric has always been known for being sharp and open-mouthed, "But I think you're definitely wasting your efforts, and although the list hasn't been leaked for too long, they must have planned everything, and instead of jumping to the top of their feet now, think about how they can help him get what he wants at the Oscars." And, do you think Dagmar and Lorenzo won't tie them up? ”
"You're probably right." Harvey saw Lorenzo's phone on his phone.
"Hi, Loren."
"I think you already know everything, Dagmar wants you to be able to show up at the ceremony, otherwise tomorrow the reputation of the Ballon d'Or will be greatly diminished, although he may not know how serious it all is. You swore that there would be no problem with Daniel, and you even expected that if you let him know the results in advance, he wouldn't do anything that we couldn't do. Obviously, you are wrong. ”
Harvey. Weinstein has nothing to argue.
In addition to Universal Pictures, he and Daniel are most familiar with the Golden Globe "Murder" alliance this time. When everyone decided to leave Daniel out of the equation and not give "The Pianist" and "The Greek Wedding" a child, it was Harvey who stood up and told everyone: Daniel will be angry, but he is also a profit-seeker, he still needs me to promote the Oscar for him, and this time he has missed it, for his age, there will be no difficulty with the Golden Globes, Nicholson and Kiel are too old, aren't they? So Daniel will never fall out with the Golden Globes.
Now this is how it turned out, Daniel picked up the hammer and was going to smash the whole table down.
Importantly, if it's Tom. Cruise and Brad. Pete, everything is much easier to do - they do have a lot of fans, but they also have a lot of personal contacts. A lot of the benefits they get are also obtained through this dirty way. But Daniel is different, he has more influence on the sudden MB than Cruise plus Brad. And he has only been in the industry for more than three years, he has never failed, and everyone who works with him has benefited from his projects. Of course, he also used money PR when he won the Golden Globe and the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, but that can be called "appropriate", and it is by no means the "manipulative" behavior they do.
In fact, apart from the last time Miramax did something scandalous to the Oscars in 1999, this year's Golden Globes have been able to rank among the best in the shady world.
'I'll try to contact him, but it's already happening, Lorenzo, we have to be mentally prepared. I mean, if he rejects you, he won't necessarily give me face. (To be continued.) )
