Chapter 43 The Dirty Dancing video is selling like crazy(2/2)
"You may not have noticed that his Empire of the Sun only received a nomination for Best Picture tonight, but not for Best Director."
"Huh?" Ronald flipped through the awards list, and sure enough, "Empire of the Sun," which Spielberg worked so hard for, didn't even get a nomination for Best Director.
"I heard that it was Kirk Douglas's group of older Jews who were dissatisfied with him for not following Jewish traditions, especially for not educating his children according to Jewish traditions."
"Does it matter whether this child goes to a synagogue? Did these people still live before the First World War?" Ronald thought to himself. I don't usually go to church. I just donate some money to the church where my aunt lives.
"The Jews are a nation maintained by religion..." Niceta also chuckled.
All Italians believe in Catholicism, but the difference can be seen mainly by skin color, hair color, and other obvious DNA characteristics. In fact, after many years of separation, it is difficult for Jewish people to verify who was the original aborigine in the Middle East in terms of ancestry.
Over the years, the Ashkenazi Jews, who are particularly powerful in America, are actually converts to Judaism from some Eastern European countries. It is difficult to say how much blood relationship there is between our ancestors and the Jews who first settled in Jerusalem during the Old Testament period.
Therefore, if this nation wants to survive, the only common ground it can find is Judaism and the Hebrew language that was resurrected after the founding of Israel.
Spielberg said in public in the media that he would not raise his children in the traditional Jewish way. When a celebrity says this, it is undoubtedly a very bad example for many Jews who already have centrifugal tendencies and have turned to secularism.
It's no wonder that these conservative Jewish elders are trying to find ways to give Spielberg some color.
Thinking that this time, Spielberg may not even be nominated for the Oscar for Best Director, Ronald's ambition began to grow. Although he is old and qualified, it is very unlikely that he will win the award for his first nomination.
Small, but...what if?
With this in mind, and wanting to make the nomination foolproof, Ronald himself wrote a check to Michael Gray, who was responsible for the marketing of "Moonlight", to increase public relations investment. Many brokers received generous rewards.
An offensive was launched against the children of old directors from the golden age of Hollywood.
These children, grandchildren, took various coupons provided by the public relations company, went to Beverly Hills one after another, and began to visit their lovely grandparents. During the conversation, they accidentally mentioned Director Ronald.
"Moonlight Sultry" is pretty good.
However, when experienced grandpas asked them which plot was better, the grandsons and grandsons all revealed the truth. After all, what they really thought was "Dirty Dancing" was good.
This money was paid by Ronald himself. After all, the dividends from the "Dirty Dancing" video have arrived. Ronald's account has a huge sum of money. In the foreseeable future, every month
Such dividends will be credited into your own account.
Fortunately, the deputy commander he supports has agreed to the "Continuing Action to Promote Employment and Prosperity" committee to continue exempting or deferring personal income tax on investment income for wealthy people like Ronald.
Ronald was very happy and continued to increase his position in the stocks of Coca-Cola and Sony. Anyway, it was still the old investment philosophy. Buy some stocks of big companies. At least the dividends would be much higher than inflation and bank interest on large deposit certificates, and they would also be tax-free.
.
Ronald kept some cash and started buying gifts for himself and his friends. Ronald bought two apartments at the foot of Beverly Hills, next to the boutique shopping street. Although they were not as good as the lofts on Fifth Avenue in New York,
But it is also a top-floor retest building, so it is good to take a short break. There are also service staff to clean and keep it clean.
You can also park your own Ferrari sports car and motorcycle here. There is a dedicated person in the apartment who starts the car every week to prevent the battery from running out of power.
In addition, Ronald was a little envious of Norio Ohga, the president of Sony, who flew a plane himself, so he began to find a suitable personal trainer, hoping to get a pilot's license after practicing for the test.
Miss Lindsay, a private lawyer who flew over specially, and Lawrence, a private accountant, helped Ronald get the documents. After he signed a lot of documents, he successfully processed the proceeds from "Dirty Dancing".
"If you are not busy, can you go to the wedding with me tomorrow?" Ronald said to the two lawyers and accountants who now mainly serve him personally.
"Is it the wedding of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore? We all saw it in the Hollywood Reporter." Lindsay Dole is not married herself, she just has a son with her partner, but she is very interested in other people's weddings.
, she has also recently been thinking about whether to make up for this ritual.
