Especially in the past two years, the issue in the academy of using economic and market means to manage culture and art can reflect the artistic and social value of the artists in the academy has been a topic that has been on the minds of all members for a long time. Suddenly became the internal focus.
Therefore, under the general environment, the occasional limited and especially paid leakage of internal information has become a big industry secret that everyone knows well but remains silent to the outside world, and it was quietly born.
But don’t think that the American screen market will be in chaos because of this. On the contrary, internal discipline has become stricter. This information that has been deliberately selected as a way to make money, if strictly analyzed, is just a side ball with commercial secrets. It is more appropriate to use those resources with deep pockets.
At the same time, although this kind of information has not passed the note of the college board of directors, it has the tacit approval of the college's senior management. Even if someone does leak this internal secret in the future, he will eventually get away safely due to the lack of legal basis.
Because there are hundreds of barristers in the academy, they have a complete set of safety rules to strictly protect themselves.
Of course, if you think that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will only achieve so-called control over the economy and the market through this shady way of making money, you are totally wrong.
In fact, the first advocate of treating film and television as a commodity and an industry is this academy.
Whoever intervenes early will be able to taste the benefits early. It should be said that people here realize this much earlier than ordinary people.
It’s the same with anything. If you realize it before everyone can see it clearly and have the courage to take action first, you will seize the opportunity. By the time everyone sees it clearly, it will be too late for you to do it.
Therefore, they not only used some experience and methods of operating enterprises in the film and television business, but also had another set of quite scientific response bills in the face of the huge risks in the film and television market.
Otherwise, how do you think a staff of up to 6,000 people can make a profit to maintain daily expenses?
It is only in recent years that more and more people have begun to engage in similar business operations, which has squeezed out part of their profit margins, and today's special way of earning a certain commission by taking advantage of the convenience of work has emerged.
In the end, the reason why they had to make up their mind to do this was actually very simple. Because if they didn't do it for a while, rumors about them making profits in this area continued among the people and the industry, and even the accounting audit department several times Settled in the college and launched several investigations based on reported issues.
Of course, nothing can be found out about things they haven't done, so when the undercurrent outside finally stopped targeting them, they felt it was unfair in their hearts.
This directly leads to the fact that since you all say that I have done it, I will simply do it. Otherwise, the pain of the previous back and forth will be in vain?
Such a result is quite ironic, just like in the ancient legend, the government forces the people to rebel and they have to rebel. In a capitalist country that claims to put democracy first, do you think it is ridiculous?
As the first deputy dean, Dr. Tracy would naturally not come forward to do this personally, but Liu Qingshan was not an outsider, and it was still necessary to selectively disclose to him some information about his participation in the project.
Just like Matt's role this time, the original version was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 82nd Academy Awards. Although he did not win the final award, he is also an action actor and has almost the highest professional reputation so far. .
The little information Tracy revealed to him seemed to others to be of little use. It was just a supporting role. There was nothing to show off if he could complete his job well in the work.
There are countless situations like this every year, but no one has really changed his character and become a superstar in one step.
A supporting role is always a supporting role, and some people even become unpopular for a long time due to the increase in their social status. In the end, they were forced to lower their social status before they could find a job again.
Sounds ridiculous, right? But the reality is so cruel. Why is there always a fierce phenomenon of competition in the entertainment industry? That is because actors are freed from the shackles of supporting roles, and actors can have a sense of glory in breaking into the front line, and can have possible future glory and wealth. and the spotlight.
Otherwise, you will still be the so-called protagonist with no sense of existence, or even the green leaves around the protagonist, a stepping stone under the shoes of a high-grossing movie.
But Liu Qingshan found the best way to hype it, because the movie "The Success" looks like an inspirational film about the South African rugby team, but it is actually Mandela's personal biography. This is different from most plots. The films are all different.
The film is based on the global rugby tournament held in South Africa and tells the story of Mandela before and after the game, using the game to promote the politics he wanted - the racial integration of blacks and whites.
The true meaning of sports in the film is undoubtedly not happiness, but a tool that conveys profound political meanings, but viewers will not find it awkward after watching it.
And face the true meaning of sports with a tolerant heart. It may be happiness, competition, a means of communication, or a political tool. It is not ugly to those who need it.
Regarding the historical background, today's Western society is just in the early stages of the election campaign when the first African-American president in the history of the United States is about to be born. Therefore, Mandela's personal biography is used to imply that a black president will be born here in the future. . system, as the biggest potential attraction of the film.
You must know that the future Obama has a very high public base among the old Americans. In addition, his campaign team used national power to protect this film. What do you think of the future market of this film? How high is the saturation.
Moreover, just like Liu Qingshan's previous participation in all scripts, although he is not the main investor, he still has the right to share 15% of the dividends.
But he values the film's deeper influence more. If he chooses to release it at this time, he will change the embarrassing situation where the film has always been praised but rarely won awards.
Matt Simon aside, Clint Eastwood, the director and producer of the original film, was the biggest loser. Not only did he lose the Best Picture Award at five prestigious international film festivals in a row, he also lost the Best Director Award. It also missed the mark twice, which ultimately led to the film's huge fanfare, but it turned out to be nothing.
In this version, Liu Qingshan directly named him as a senior director who is as famous as Martin. If he hadn't changed his profession halfway and became a director, his name would be among the four legendary superstars now.
If it can successfully take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime historical opportunity, the film will definitely win back all the awards it has lost. This is not just a fantasy. Don’t ignore a man who intends to change the political landscape of the United States at any time. The brave fighting spirit of African-American presidential candidates.
Liu Qingshan didn't want to have any dealings with such people. He valued the moment that might bring Clint Eastwood to the pinnacle of his career.
In this way, he had the full help of another senior Hollywood force, and also further portrayed the magical legend of his script as a god-level existence.
You must know that the 78th Academy Awards early next year will most likely be the one where his "The King's Speech" shines. That film also has an opportunistic nature, borrowing from the British royal family in the United States and Europe. The most profound and far-reaching issue of blood origin.
This is the reason why the original version has been so successful. With these two major productions that are both biographies as his stepping stones, his future path to Hollywood will be smooth, and at least he will get twice the result with half the effort.
It's just that he hid his thoughts very deeply at this moment, and was teasing Heinz in a seemingly playful way: "You only saw his continuous film appointments, but you ignored my careful training of him! Every time he walks now, I won’t care about one step, but the key notification opportunity may not only be ignored by you, but also by him! Light a cigar for me, maybe I will reveal a little bit to you when I am happy!"
These words not only stimulated Heinz, but also directly shocked Matt: "Master, are you saying that you already have a plan for my next move?"
Liu Qingshan, however, smacked the cigar box on the table very coquettishly.
Heinz was more than twice as old as Liu Qingshan, but he did not feel dissatisfied at being slighted by the younger generation. He immediately opened the cigarette case happily, took out a cigarette and lit it.
Liu Qingshan took a sip of pleasure and looked at Matt: "You and Heinz have actually completed an important step in my plan. In the future, both of you will reach the pinnacle of your career overnight because of that project!"
After all, he is much younger. Compared with Heinz's unusual calmness, Matt behaved a little bit gaffes: "Master, are you talking about the movie "The Man Who Has Just Finished"? Oh my god, I can say that I am actually confused. Did you shoot the whole movie? It was really hard. In order to play the role of Francois Pienaar, the captain of the South African rugby team, I spent six months working hard to learn the accent and participate in physical training so that I could I feel like I can get infinitely closer to the role I want to play.”
Only then did Heinz have the opportunity to speak: "Mr. Liu, are you referring to the awards that Matt may win in the future? Indeed, he has devoted a lot in this drama!"
Liu Qingshan smiled enigmatically and shook his head: "Not only him, but the entire crew will have a glorious moment that can change their destiny! Of course, the premise is that you and Warner must first find a way to win the film and become it during the Oscars next month. Public screening quota!”
So far, the appearance of Obama, a future figure, is still in the secret preparation stage. Even the group of people in the United States who are most concerned about politics are now mostly confused and are facing a stage of confusion before the big trend begins.
Although polls show that this person has a leading trend in the future, almost everyone in the world is deeply skeptical about the success of the first black president in history, except for a small group who have fallen into Crazy black politicians.
