Chapter 1444 Lying down and picking up money

"I guess there are many people who accuse me of Jia Yapeng being a liar, deliberately taking $10 million out to tease them and disgusting the entire "Independence Day" crew, isn't it?" Boss Jia took the microphone and asked the audience with a smile, and the audience suddenly burst into laughter.

Isn't that just funny?

It can only be said that rich people really know how to play!

"But I want to tell them that they are wrong, I, Jia Yapeng, really want to disgust all the people who don't give me face, but I won't disgust them with lies! I won't take this money today, I'll still send it! ”

"Since the crew of "Independence Day", which ranked first at the global box office, did not send any representatives, then the order was automatically moved back, may I ask the crew of "Men in Black", which ranked second in the global box office list in 1997, is there a representative here?"

After "Independence Day", the number 2 in the global box office list in '97 was "Men in Black".

In this world, the global box office of "Men in Black" has also increased, becoming a global box office of $890 million, while "Pokemon 3" has a global box office of 810 million, ranking third.

It's a pity that with such a box office of $80 million, "Pokemon 3" can get the second place in the world in '97.

"Huh?" Barry Sonenfeld and Tommy Lee Jones snorted stupidly, and then they were frantically surrounded by the people around them.

Before they could speak, the surrounding guests shouted loudly, "The Men in Black crew is here, they have representatives here, they are here!" ”

"Hahaha, two dear friends, don't come up quickly!" Boss Jia said with a smile on his face, Barry Sonenfeld and Tommy Lee Jones, two people, took some trance steps, and came to the stage in a daze under the push of several good friends.

"Come, let our two dear gentlemen introduce yourselves first!" Boss Jia handed the microphone to the two, and at this time the two also regained a certain calm, they first glanced at the eight small carts with a total of $10 million behind them, swallowed their saliva, and then introduced themselves.

"Hello everyone, I'm Barry Sonanfeld, a producer on the Men in Black crew and a representative for Columbia!"

"Hello everyone, I'm one of the stars of the Men in Black movie, that is, Agent K Tommy Lee Jones!"

The two crew members introduced themselves one after another.

"Two dear gentlemen, I would like to ask, are you two the only ones in the entire crew who came to our ceremony?" Boss Jia smiled, "I mean that whether it is an assistant director, cameraman, executive director, even if it is just a small staff member who has worked in the crew, as long as they come to the scene, they should come to our stage!" ”

"Well, I'm sorry, the whole crew really just came to the two of us!" Barry Sonenfeld's expression was very odd.

In fact, the two of them would not have come, because they didn't want to fight against the Oscar organizing committee.

Needless to say, Tommy Lee Jones, although he has won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, he still has a heart that wants to win the Oscar for Best Actor, and Barry Sonenfeld doesn't have any idea about the Oscar, but the company behind him doesn't want to get into trouble with the Oscar, so neither of them will come, and the entire Men in Black crew will not come.

But the problem is that they came because they were sent by the Oscars organizing committee on their own initiative.

As I said before, the Oscar organizing committee wants to use Men in Black, the second highest grossing film in the world in 97, to make a trap for Boss Jia, so that Boss Jia will award the most commercially valuable award to Men in Black, thus questioning the fairness of the Golden Dragon Award.

However, when Boss Jia presented this award to the honorable position of the Independence Day crew, Barry Sonenfeld and Tommy Lee Jones thought that their work was over and that they would just return home after the awards ceremony.

Unexpectedly, they would actually stand on the stage, and it seems that they are still ......

"Well, it seems that the rest of the crew is not as lucky as the two of you!" Boss Jia said with a smile, "Since no one from the Independence Day crew came to accept the award, I announce that the $10 million prize of the Golden Dragon Award for the Most Commercial Value Award in 97 was won by the crew of the man in black who ranked second at the global box office in 97 and came to the scene to receive the award!" ”

β€œwhatοΌŸβ€ When Barry Sonenfeld and Tommy Lee Jones took the stage, although they had vaguely guessed this possibility, when they heard Boss Jia announce the news, they were still stupid.

The $10 million, it's all theirs?

"Fack!" Roland Waldridge, who was still mocking Boss Jia just now, rolled his eyes and fainted again after hearing that the $10 million reward was given to the crew of Men in Black.

"Mr. Jia! This huge bonus, do you really want to give us the crew? Barry Sonenfeld asked in a voice of irrepressible excitement.

"Of course not!" Boss Jia shook his head, Barry Sonenfeld's heart was cold, this money is not so easy to get, Boss Jia is still playing himself.

Then he heard Boss Jia continue, "To be precise, this $10 million bonus is for the two of you, not for the crew." And it's only for the two of you, and it's a bonus that can only be shared by the two of you!! ”

β€œwhatοΌŸοΌŸβ€ Barry Sonenfeld and Tommy Lee Jones are stupid again, and this prize money is only for the two of them?

That means each of them gets a direct share of the $5 million prize?

"Why?" Barry Sonenfeld asked in disbelief.

"Because of the entire crew, only the two of you gave me face and came to the scene!" Boss Jia smiled and said, "I'm a very direct person, so I'll get straight to the point." ”

"I am in charge of my prize, and whoever gives me face, my prize will be awarded to whomever I want. There were three or four hundred people in your crew in black, but in the end, only two people came to the scene, and only the two of you gave me face! ”

"Oh, my dear Tommy Lee Jones friend and Brother Barry Sonnenfeld! You gave me face, so of course my prize money can only be shared by the two of you, and the other people who didn't come will not get a penny, including your Colombian company. ”

"By the way, you have to sign a contract before receiving the bonus, that is, to ensure that the $10 million bonus is only divided equally between the two of you, and you are not allowed to share this money with anyone for 10 years, not even your relatives and friends, only the two of you can use it yourself, if anyone tries to take a part of your bonus, it is a violation of the contract, and I will recover this money in accordance with the law!"

"However, considering that it is unrealistic for the entire crew to come, as long as there are more than 10 people in the crew coming to the scene in the future, including the four important positions of the male and female protagonists, directors and producers, then the entire crew and the production company behind it can share the prize money of 10 million US dollars!"

"Got it?"

"Understood!" Tommy Lee Jones and Barry Sonenfeld nodded at the same time, and then deep down they almost laughed.

Originally, after they received the bonus, the money must have been shared with all the members of the crew, and even most of it had to be handed over to the Columbia company, after all, this is a film produced by the company to win the award, and the prize money should naturally be won by the company.

But Boss Jia made such a contract, which directly eliminated the possibility of anyone else sharing the money in legal theory, and they could justifiably enjoy this huge bonus, and no one could accuse them from the moral and legal levels, and they also had peace of mind with this money, which was simply perfect to the extreme

Seriously, if it weren't for Boss Jia being a man, Tommy Lee Jones and Barry Sonenfeld would both want to jump up at this time and hug our Boss Jia and kiss him hard.

"This is killing people!" Hearing Boss Jia's conditions, the guests on the scene quickly understood Boss Jia's intentions.

Boss Jia is taking revenge on all the guests who didn't come to his film festival, he knows that the crew of "Men in Black" didn't come willingly, so he deliberately only gave awards to Tommy Lee Jones and Barry Sonenfeld, and let the two of them share the prize money equally.

In this way, the other people who didn't come couldn't drink a sip of soup, and they couldn't even resent the two people who got the prize money, they could only resent themselves, resented the Oscars, why would they be prevented from coming to the film festival.

And more importantly, after making such a fuss today, all the members of the film crew that will rank first in the global box office next year still dare not come to Boss Jia's film festival?

Compared with 10 million US dollars, the Oscar trophy is a fart, and most people will never win an Oscar in their lifetime, and they can't even enter the scene of the Oscar, and the ghost will care about an Oscar.

And the film that can get the first place in the global box office list must be a big production of the year, bringing together the top stars and filmmakers of the Oscars, once these people come to the Imperial Capital International Film Festival, the Oscars may have to block a large number of mainstream Hollywood filmmakers.

One or two movies are okay, but if it takes more than 10 years, most of Hollywood's families will be banned by the Oscars.

In this way, does Oscar still dare to ban it?

Oscar's blockade of the Imperial Capital International Film Festival, under the violent tearing of Boss Jia's $10 million, has opened a huge opening!

But this is just the beginning of today, and Boss Jia is not only preparing for $10 million!
