"Also, Mr. Wang, your "Remembrance of the Forbidden City" is also a Grammy hit, and if you can win the award, it can also bring certain benefits to "The Last Emperor"; However, we have limited funding and can only focus on Best Original Music for a Film, so if you want to win more awards, you'll have to cover most of your PR costs. After the explanation, the representative of the PR agency brought up another topic.

"OK, no problem." The public relations costs of many awards are shared by the producer and the person who hopes to win the award, because winning the award is also a good thing for these people, so Shen Long readily agreed.

Isn't it just money, when I get the prize, in the future, my ticket sales price, copyright transfer fees, etc. can go up a lot, in short, the wool is out of the sheep, and the money is not lost.

"Well, in that case, we need to win two awards at the Grammys: Best Original Score for a Motion Picture and Best New-Age Record! I'll tell you the exact budget in a moment, and you'll need to be prepared to attend some events according to our schedule. There was no difference on the face of the representative of the PR agency, all this in his expectation, New York is a big vanity fair, but if there is an opportunity to gain fame, no one will miss it.

"I'm also planning to throw more parties, and thank you to the people who spoke to me before." Shen Long added that Kitaro and other New-Age bigwigs have said a lot of good things about themselves, and he should indeed be grateful, and some of them have a lot of influence on the Grammys.

Therefore, whether from the perspective of favor or interests, Shen Long had to hold a few more parties to entertain them, and use this opportunity to build a good relationship with them.

Then the PR company announced a specific plan, according to the regulations, they can't bribe the judges of the Oscar Academy, but the PR company has already figured out the rules, and it can easily come up with a lot of loopholes in the rules.

Of course, you can't pay bribes directly, but since you're a judge, you definitely want to watch the film, right? In that case, let's send you a videotape, which is within the scope of the rules, and there is no problem at all; However, our videotapes are a little special, and we have to use the latest models of video recorders to achieve the best viewing results.

As for what happens to the VCR afterwards, it's none of our business, you can use it to watch other film companies' films in the future.

Oh, by the way, our "Last Emperor" tells the story of the Oriental world, if you want to better appreciate this film, you have to understand the Oriental culture, you look at this silk embroidery, pure Oriental cultural artwork, you can see it You can have a deeper understanding of Oriental culture, so that you can better appreciate the charm of the movie.

You say the price? No, no, no, this is not for sale, it is not sold in the United States, since there is no price, you don't have to worry that it will violate the relevant regulations, you can rest assured that you can just accept it, you see, this artwork matches your wife's temperament!

Who said that the United States did not go through the back door? It's just that people have raised the cost of going through the back door, and ordinary people can't reach it, as long as you have money, let alone hire a PR company to help hit the Oscars, even if you hire an outside group to move Congress to change a certain regulation, provided you have enough money.

Of course, if we want to move the Congress, we have to see whether this law interferes with the interests of other interest groups, and the general problem may be easy to talk about, but the big problem can only be seen by the two interest groups, which is stronger.

So after discussing the plan, Shen Long asked Wang Qitian to help send some artworks from China, presented them to the judges, and held many cocktail parties to entertain people in the music circle, and also gave them a lot of gifts; Everyone is very satisfied with him, and the fact that he can do this proves that he has thoroughly understood the American culture and unspoken rules, in other words, he can be regarded as his own person, so since he is his own person, it is also appropriate to help him win the award.

When he wins the award, his status in the music circle will rise further, and maybe he will ask him for help in the future, and then it will be his turn to return his favor; Who says Americans don't care about people? People say it more clearly, and the price is more clearly marked.

Soon, the time of the awards season came, and Shen Long, Bertruch and others continued to attend many awards such as the Italian David Award, the French César Award, the Japanese Academy Film Award, the European Film Awards, the British Academy Film Awards, the Writers Guild Awards, the Directors Guild Awards, and many other awards.

As predicted by the PR firm, Bertruch won almost all the Best Director awards, "The Last Emperor" also won a lot of Best Picture awards, and Shen Long and David Byrne won the Best Original Film Award at the BAFTA Awards, which is a good start.

Zunlong, Chen Chong and Wu Junmei almost didn't win anything, and only got a few nominations at most, and they accompanied the whole process during the award ceremony; On the contrary, Peter Otto, who played Puyi's English teacher Johnston, won the Best Supporting Actor award at the BAFTA Awards.

A look at Peter Otto's CV tells how this award came about, Peter Otto is an Irishman who grew up in England and later entered the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art for further study; He has starred in many classic films such as "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Winter Lion", and won the British Film Institute Best Actor Award for "Lawrence of Arabia" before.

He can be said to be his own person to the letter, and it is not surprising that many of the judges are his old acquaintances who won this award, but Chen Chong and Zunlong are outsiders, and the organizers did not have many judges to speak for them when they presented the awards.

Zun Long has been in the United States for a long time, and he knows some of the situation, so his mood is quite stable along the way, Chen Chong participates with full expectations every time, but he is disappointed again and again, and his mood is becoming more and more depressed.

Shen Long took the opportunity to order a sentence or two, wanting her to understand that the American film industry is not so easy to mix, and if she wants to develop, she has to return to China, but she doesn't seem to listen.

Soon, the small awards were awarded, and finally it was time for the awards to be awarded, Shen Long and Bertruffy ushered in the first award of this year's awards season - the American Golden Globe Awards.

"Wang, guess what, how many big prizes can we win this time?" Bertrucci looked confident.
