Stanbrak Haven was Larry Sr. who came to help raise the voice with producers and distributors, and he remained in the avant-garde and arthouse film industry, and he was much more influential in Hollywood and film critic circles than Larry Sr. Song Ya also saw that Stanbulak Haven was there, so he temporarily changed his plan, invited them to dinner, and consulted about the next film award by the way.

"Oscar?" During the banquet, the two old men laughed when they heard Song Ya's unrealistic question, "Do you have this plan?" ”

"One point, Best Original Score and Best Original Song......"

Song Ya replied.

"Maybe, but don't get your hopes up, the Oscar judges won't like to dance movies like My Life, and they don't like singers who come to play tickets."

"This year is the 100th anniversary of the birth of the film, and the major film companies in Europe and the United States have invested the greatest enthusiasm and resources to produce high-quality products, and the competition for the Oscars early next year will be unprecedentedly fierce. ”

"I understand, but you've heard my song Be What You want to Be, do you think there's a chance?" Song Ya asked about one of the best songs in the Dancing Out of My Life movie soundtrack.

"It's so popular."

Stanbrak Tip shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to help you with APLUS, but I advise you that if you really want to win an award, you can put your energy into other things, such as the MTV Movie Awards organized by MTV." ”

It was a small award, and its influence in the film industry was far less than that of VMA in the record industry, although it was all run by one company.

"I don't have a chance then, Lei Shidong bought Paramount ......"

At the end of last year, Viacom (MTV is its subsidiary) boss Lei Shidong won Paramount Pictures, one of the seven largest companies, in the competition with Barry Diller, with an unbelievable price, 10 billion dollars, and 10 billion in 93 years.

After he proposed a purchase price of 8.2 billion, Occidental Petroleum and other investors behind Paramount knew that there was another entertainment tycoon, Barry Diller, who was also preparing to enter the competition, so they began to induce the two to bid while rejecting the acquisition proposal.

Lei Shidong did not fall in love with the war, and found that the situation was not decisive to transfer the target, and acquired the audio-visual chain giant BesTV for 8.4 billion, Barry Diller saw the main competitors leaving, so he was not in a hurry, and began to negotiate slowly with Paramount, trying to lower the purchase price. Unexpectedly, the old fox Lei Shidong mortgaged Blockbuster to the bank with his backhand, mobilized a full 10 billion funds, and offered to buy Paramount for the second time, this time Paramount lost trust in Barry Diller, and the psychological defense line also completely collapsed in front of this price, without any further delay, and the acquisition was successful.

Lei Shidong leveraged two shocking acquisitions totaling 18.4 billion yuan in just a few weeks, shaking the whole meter, his personal net worth of less than 4 billion dollars skyrocketed afterwards, and his territory and personal power in the entertainment and media industry have reached a new unrivaled peak, with fame and fortune. Another tycoon, Barry Diller, not only returned empty-handed, but was also spurned by Wall Street Capital, which provided financial aid for his acquisition of Paramount, and his personal wealth shrank sharply, and the years of entanglement between the two came to an end.

Now Lei Shidong's media, entertainment, audio-visual distribution and cinema resources will all escort the new Paramount, and Dance out of my life just happened to meet his family's strong film Forrest Gump, Song Ya is grateful if he is not shot, how dare he hope to win his MTV movie award.

Larry Sr. is much more nervous than Song Ya, "Forrest Gump is starring Tom Hanks, he was applauded and sold, and he won the Oscar for Best Actor with Philadelphia Story, and that movie will be a big potential opponent for us." ”

"yes, so I'm going to see the Philadelphia story tomorrow."

The sensitive drama that tells the story of HIV patients fighting for their rights has won 70 million at the box office and is still being released, but there are less than 600 theaters left, and it is estimated that it will be released soon.

"People don't want to see it......" Mary Carey on the side was coquettish.

"And what do you want to see?" Song Ya asked her.

"Four weddings and one funeral." She said, "It's definitely about getting married." ”

“……”

"Haha, yes and no." Stanbrak Tip laughed, "I won't spoil the specifics, but it's very enjoyable, a love light comedy made by a British, starring Hugh Grant, a popular student over there." ”

"Just look at this." Mariah Carey nodded.

"Okay, watch both, watch them together."

"Don't think too much, the crowd of commercial singing and dancing youth films and Forrest Gump's true drama does not coincide."

Stanbrak Tip pulled the topic back and raised his glass, "The summer file is rare, even if it is ranked in the middle of the season, it is estimated that the box office will not lose to the first place in the current off-season." Good luck with your movies......"

"I wish the movie a big hit." Songya and Mariah Kelly laughed and clinked glasses with him.

"By the way, pray that the world doesn't spoil our business." Old Larry is still unhappy with the attitude of those people around the world just now.

"Cheers to the world."

Universal doesn't have a strong movie in this summer file, and it's not easy, but it's a good thing for me to dance out of my life.

The next day, before the dubbing work began, Song Ya and Mariah Carey chartered a one-hall movie theater, which is now less and less common in Los Angeles.

Four weddings and a funeral is the kind of movie that overflows with the unique humor of the British, Hugh Grant is very handsome, and the character he plays in the play has a very special temperament, that is, a small person and a gentleman's temperament, that is, shy and sullen, that is, dedicated and attentive......

In the play, the encounter with the heroine at different weddings and funerals, the separation and union are also very dramatic, and finally the male protagonist confessed his true feelings at his wedding, left his fiancée, and chose the heroine who had just divorced her husband.

This kind of romantic drama of escaping at the wedding scene and choosing the true lover in her heart made Mariah Carey fascinated, and the only thing she was not satisfied with was the ending, "What ......the hell is it that the male and female protagonists agree to stay together for the rest of their lives but not get married"

"Actually, that's not bad......" Song Ya thought thoughtfully.

"Huh?"

"Uh, I mean, don't you think the male and female protagonists are scum? He's romantically pursuing true love, but what about the poor fiancée who was abandoned at the wedding? There is no sense of responsibility at all. Song Ya pointed to the end credits and said.

"Oh yes." Mariah Carey thought for a moment and nodded.

"Take a break, the next one is a Philadelphia story." Song Ya reminded her, "Are you going to the bathroom?" ”

"No, I'm sleepy again."

Mary Kelly yawned.

"Okay, I'll sleep with you in my arms."

Song Ya hugged her and continued to wait for the next movie.

Stanbulakhaven is right, it's the off-season, and the four weddings and a funeral that just ended the small-scale screening will probably win the box office this week, so how much? It is said that it will not exceed six million dollars, and this result can't even get into the top three in the summer file.

After waiting for a while, the Philadelphia story began to be screened, and the more I watched it, the cooler my heart became, the new Oscar winner Tom Hanks's acting performance in this drama was too amazing, he played an AIDS patient deeply, especially the scene where he dragged the sick body to testify in court, for himself who already knows a lot of acting knowledge, it is like a feeling of looking up to a mountain, and don't expect to catch up for the rest of his life.

"It's tiring and time-consuming to make movies, it's hard to make money, and it's not worth investing too much energy in acting!"

Playing cool and handsome, Song Ya feels that his future as an actor is like this, the reality is cruel, not to mention Tom Hanks, even Hugh Grant's acting skills can't be matched, "Forrest Gump is not a movie of the level of Philadelphia story...... " He secretly prayed for the box office of my life.

"It's really annoying, what's going on with this kind of weak psychology that no one can compare to and be scared?"

immediately reacted again, "As a traverser, isn't Lei Shidong's kind of tycoon exactly what I want to strive for?" That's it! ”
