This event will inevitably have a series of effects, some of which will take a long time to show, and some of which will be revealed.

Once again, the Jewish forces in Hollywood are united, just as they did with Spielberg's Schindler's List, and next year's Oscars are sure to be a strong cry.

No one can guarantee an Oscar, but Natalie is definitely in the lead, even if the rival film has not yet been released.

If Ryan's PR is a layer of insurance, then now Natalie has double insurance, if it weren't for the Coen brothers, who are also Jewish, Ryan might have considered giving up Best Actress and going all out to hit Best Director.

Under strict protection, the premiere was uneventful, and amid protests from Iranians, the film was not only released in North America, but also in other countries where the English language was played.

As for the film itself, there is not much to say, just look at the reaction of the Iranian government to understand what kind of film it is.

The Iranian government is condemning, the Iranian government wants to ban movies, the Iranian government wants to take countermeasures against Hollywood, and the Iranian government interferes with free speech in the United States......

This is Harvey? Weinstein's propaganda strategy for the film must drag the Iranian government into the water and step on it a few more times.

Even if there are so many disputes around this film, the inherent weakness of "I Grew Up in Iran" is very obvious, and it is not easy for a film that reflects foreign culture to succeed in North America, even if many people shout in support of the release of this film, it is only to maintain the concept of freedom of speech in their hearts, and they may not buy tickets to enter the theater.

The now radically intensified U.S.-Iran relationship is undoubtedly the film's biggest selling point, and it is also one of the few places that can attract the North American public to the theater.

More than 1,600 theaters in the first week, with a box office of $21.21 million, can be said to be the biggest limit of this niche film. In addition to allowing Disney Pictures and Miramax to recover their costs from many investors and distributors, the biggest benefit is that with the release of the film, the stock price of Miramax, which has been declining, has temporarily stabilized and began to climb slowly.

Even if such a huge public opinion war is launched, the loss of 200 million US dollars from Ryan and Nicole cannot be recovered in a short period of time, and Miramax can be regarded as a serious injury, if it were not for Disney as a backer. If it weren't for Ryan's foundation, the Weinstein brothers would have had to make a big mistake.

In particular, "The Torture Room", which was exposed by hackers, suffered a huge box office setback after its release on Halloween.

The film opened in North America with 2,765 theaters, and only received $11.59 million in the first week, and the production cost of the film was as high as $65 million. Tastino and Robert? Rodriguez will face his most painful defeat since his debut.

By the second week, the box office had plummeted to more than $4.6 million. According to Ryan and Miramax's estimates, the film's North American box office is more than $20 million at most.

There is no way to recoup your investment.

Compared to the nearly $50 million earned by "I Grew Up in Iran" at the North American box office, "The Torture Room" will undoubtedly show the negative impact of the hacking incident, and Miramax's stock price has slipped again. It also makes Ryan and other shareholders hate Iran even more.

If in the past he only used Iran to promote the movie, then after the Iranians moved his cake, Ryan already had a reason to be hostile to Iran.

Perhaps the source of this dispute comes from Argo, but for capital and business groups. These are not important, the other party has really harmed their interests, and this is the first thing to consider.

"I'm going to overthrow the Iranian government. Kill those ayatollahs! ”

Seemingly mistaking Ryan's character for an Iranian, Taylor nimbly pressed the handle and completed the 'KO' in a few clicks, "I want to throw Ahmadinejad into the Persian Gulf to feed the fish!" ”

"Did something happen?" The door was pushed open from the outside, and Nicole walked into the entertainment room with Sandy in her arms, "Allison, is it the Hollywood record company that is withholding your share?" ”

"It's not." Taylor dropped the gamepad, got up and ran over to pick up Sandy, kissed the little guy on the cheek, and then said, "Last year, Dad transferred his stake in Miramax to my name, and I lost a lot this time......"

"Sunny ......," she touched Sandy's forehead, "I'm going bankrupt, and you won't have money to buy you candy when you're older." ”

"Sister...... Sister. ”

The little guy grabbed her long platinum blonde hair, and Gege smiled, "Thai...... Strangle. ”

"Oh wow...... Taylor shook off Sandy's little hand and held her in a circle, "You're getting smarter." ”

"As long as a few more films succeed."

TURNING OFF THE XBOX CONSOLE, RYAN WALKED OVER, "MIRAX'S STOCK PRICE WILL RISE BACK SOON, AND THERE'......"

Raising a finger, Ryan solemnly warned Taylor, "No matter how much you hate the Iranian government, don't say what you just said in public, you are a public figure!" ”

"I understand." Taylor nodded, "I'm not Lindsay?" A fool like Lohan. ”

Walking to the thick carpet with Sandy in his arms, Taylor placed her in a pile of baby toys and sat cross-legged next to her.

Ryan and Nicole also walked over, and Sandy was at the center of their game.

"I've heard that those arms and energy complexes want to do something to Iran."

As soon as Ryan sat down, Taylor returned to the previous topic, which was full of gossip, "If they want to push the federal government to launch a new crackdown, they will definitely need the cooperation of the media, Ryan, are you really not going to unite with other forces to get rid of this nasty Iranian government?" ”

"Honey." Ryan rolled his eyes helplessly, "You're thinking too much, that's a country!" We are just a media conglomerate. ”

"Okay......" Taylor stuck out his tongue at Sandy, "Sanny, what if we don't have money to buy toys in the future?" ”

"Dad...... Father. ”

I don't know if the little guy understands or not, so he stretched out a little finger and pointed at Ryan, "Dad...... Father. ”

"Our angels obviously know who is the richest one." Nicole clapped her hands, and Sandy climbed up to her, "Mom...... Cat’s meow. ”

Of course it's all a joke, don't you say Scott? Swift and the trust he and Nicole set up for Taylor, who earned more than $50 million on this year's U.S. tour alone, is a veritable little rich woman even if she has to pay taxes and pay other brokerage and public relations expenses.

"When will my film be released?" Taylor suddenly asked, "Are you really going to go to the theater?" ”

"Disney Studios is editing." Ryan thought for a moment and said, "I think it's more appropriate to release DVD discs, don't go into theaters, otherwise the meaning of accumulating money is too obvious, and it is also an overdraft for fans, and it will not be good for your future." ”

If Taylor were another Disney idol star, Ryan would definitely release a film similar to "That's It" in his previous life, but for a pop singer in his formative years, such a film entering theaters would not do much good, and would only overdraft the future.

Besides, they are not short of money.

"That'll be left to Disney."

Taylor screamed and threw himself into the pile of toys, causing Sandy to laugh.

Fast forward to November, and by the time "I Grew Up in Iran" came out for a month, the North American box office slowly climbed to $80 million, and if nothing else, with the help of the wave of free speech set off by the Miramax incident, the North American box office of the film is very likely to eventually exceed $100 million.

As the issuer, Miramax's stock price has completely stabilized, but it is easy for the stock to fall and difficult to rise, and Miramax's market value has shrunk by 15% compared to before the hacking incident.

Another film in the incident, "A Farewell", has also begun to be screened in North America on a small scale in order to win Oscar tickets, how to run an award-winning film, the Weinstein brothers have enough ability and experience.

This film, like "I Grew Up in Iran", has been unanimously praised by the mainstream media in North America, and in their propaganda hype, the two films are definitely works of conscience and morality that reflect the reality of Iran's problems, in other words, if you want to understand the current social situation in Iran, then watch "I Grew Up in Iran" and "A Farewell".

On the other hand, the situation in the Persian Gulf is extremely tense, and although the US Navy does not send an aircraft carrier group, several warships patrol frequently, and it is said that there are several occasions when they greet the Iranian Navy almost face-to-face......

If it weren't for Afghanistan and Iraq, perhaps the federal government would have really done something to Iran.

As for Iran, in addition to a tough response, it is still clamoring for the elimination of Jewish forces in Hollywood and the elimination of Zionist organizations.

The louder this voice is, the more Jewish forces in Hollywood will unite, and the better the chances of "I Grew Up in Iran" and "A Farewell" winning the Oscars.

Similarly, Natalie, as a standard Jew, will certainly benefit from this.

Although there is still some time to go before the awards season, Ryan has already received a lot of feedback, and in addition to the votes that can be obtained by PR, most of the Jewish judges have vaguely said that Natalie will be the first choice for Best Actress at this year's Oscars.

For those female stars who have worked hard in Hollywood for many years, this seems very unfair, but there is no fairness in this world.

Also, Natalie didn't say it, but Ryan did, Mrs. Shelly came to Los Angeles from New York, also for her daughter, although the Hirschler family was only a standard Jewish middle class, but many Jews from European origin, no one can say what kind of connection there is between their ancestors.

These are all connections, and now that Natalie has a bright enough role and resume, external factors are bound to play an important role. (To be continued......)
