Chapter 1487 Shawshank Redemption(1/2)

Harrison looked at the middle-aged man opposite with a gloomy expression.

This middle-aged man is a senior member of the Oscar organizing committee, and his influence is extraordinary. It can be said that if a film wants to win the Oscar, he is basically a hurdle that cannot be bypassed.

Patrick Kelson.

"Will your standards never change?" Harrison said leisurely.

Hearing this, Kelson shrugged and replied calmly: "Maybe, but I promise it won't be this year."

"you--"

Suddenly hearing this answer from Kelson's mouth, Harrison seemed to feel an unknown fire burning in his heart.

He is the president of Dime Pictures, one of the six major Hollywood film giants.

After being in charge of Di Mei Pictures for so many years and making all the decisions in Hollywood, few people dared to speak to him in a sarcastic tone to his face.

At least in recent years, almost no one dares to do this.

Harrison's eyes flashed with a stern look, like a stimulated eagle, staring sharply at Kelson who was not far across the way.

Under his strong pressure, Kelsen was calm and composed, with nothing unusual about him.

He didn't seem to take Harrison seriously.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Harrison thought of the other party's background, the anger in his heart subsided slightly, and then found another reason: "Do you want Chinese-language movies to rule Hollywood?"

Kelson looked up at Harrison in surprise. He really didn't expect the other party to say such superficial words.

"Haha!" He chuckled first, then slowly shook his head and said: "Mr. President, director, actors, and crew are all Americans, and the movie itself is an authentic American story. Oriental DreamWorks

It is also legal to pay taxes. From what angle do you make your judgment about the so-called Chinese movies? Please teach me."

Hearing the sharp words of the other party, Harrison almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

He snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Feeling that there was nothing more to talk about between the two, Kelson stood up and said goodbye to Harrison gracefully before leaving.

Seeing the other party's distant figure, Harrison sighed heavily in his heart. Is it really impossible to prevent this movie from becoming the biggest Oscar winner?

A business building not far away from Di Mei Pictures.

It is also the headquarters of Hollywood Oriental DreamWorks in the United States.

In the office, Barber's hearty laughter could be heard from time to time.

"Haha, although the box office of "The Shawshank Redemption" can barely recover the production cost, the film's influence on film critics is really great."

Barber was holding a mobile phone and talking to Yang Ming on the phone: "I can guarantee that "The Shawshank Redemption" will become the biggest Oscar winner this time, and there won't be any more surprises!"

The old man, who was over sixty years old, was full of energy, spoke in a loud voice, and was full of energy.

Yang Ming could feel the joy of the other party through the phone, but he still reminded: "Someone will definitely jump out, so you have to be careful!"

"It has jumped out." Barbour said loudly: "Previously, some media questioned the qualifications of our film and even promoted the news that Chinese-language films would take over the entire Hollywood. I arranged for someone to give me a severe lesson!"

"All lists of directors, actors, and crew members can be found at the Hollywood Labor Union; in addition, unless someone wants to overthrow the American system and believes that a company that pays taxes on time and legally is not considered a local American company, please speak louder!"

Barber was like a child, showing off and telling Yang Ming about his recent arrangements in Hollywood.

It made Yang Ming smile bitterly.

This old man is also very old, but he is still so angry.

Finally, before hanging up the phone, Barber said something that stunned Yang Ming.

"If "The Shawshank Redemption" can win the Oscar this time, you can also win the Golden Dragon Award in China. By then, the highest film awards in the two countries will appear with the name of the same film company!"

Yang Ming was shocked by these words for a moment.

I don't even know when Mr. Barber will hang up the phone.

He really didn't expect that a script he randomly gave to Barber last year would cause such a big sensation in Hollywood. Although the box office performance was not good, it almost conquered film critics and too many senior film professionals.

So classic.

That's right, he simply wrote a script based on the classic Hollywood movie "The Shawshank Redemption", which had a huge reputation in his previous life but did not do well at the box office, and threw it to the old man.

Then he told Barbour: "If this movie is made well, it will win an Academy Award."

But he really didn't expect Barber to make the movie so well.

You know, there is no book "Different Seasons" in the United States today, and naturally there is no chapter "Rita Hayworth and the Redemption from Shawshank Prison".

Barber was able to perfectly replicate the same classic "Shawshank Redemption" in this world with a script that Yang Ming simply wrote. This is definitely a contribution and demonstrates the old man's ability in Hollywood.

Yang Ming has never paid attention to the situation of this movie in the United States. He just knew that the box office results were enough to recoup the production cost, so he didn't take it to heart.

To be honest, there was once a little impulse in his heart, and he hesitated whether to leave this movie that could make a god to himself.

But he thought about it again and again and finally gave up.

This is a pure American movie. No matter how much he changes the plot, he can't hide the American spirit in the script.

So, he gave up.

If he wants to become a god, then he should use the Chinese cultural spirit as the core to become a god, rather than reshaping the classic Hollywood blockbusters of his previous life so that he can reach the pinnacle of the film industry in this life.

This is not what he wants.

It's okay to make money from blockbuster Hollywood blockbusters in your previous life, but it's absolutely not okay to use it to become a god.

So, he sent the script for "The Shawshank Redemption" to Barber.

He turned on his computer and logged into the American website to see what was going on with "The Shawshank Redemption".

When you open an American portal website, the entertainment section is overwhelmingly filled with positive news about "The Shawshank Redemption." News reviews and reports are all overwhelmingly positive.

The reputation is overwhelming.

He smiled faintly when he saw these, it was indeed so.

But it makes sense when you think about it.

After all, in its previous life, this film was selected as the first among the 250 best films by more than 1.6 million members on imdb; it was also selected into the American Film Institute's list of the top 100 films of the 20th century.

To be honest, had this movie not encountered the incredible "Forrest Gump" back then, it would have definitely won the Best Picture and Best Director.

But even so, under the strong pressure of "Forrest Gump", this film won several Academy Awards, especially Best Actor, which directly made Freeman a success.

This shows the powerful charm of the film "The Shawshank Redemption".

Looking at the news reports on American websites, this movie has almost been praised to the sky.

Yang Ming didn't know whether these news were arranged by Barber, but he had to say that they were well written.

"A long road to freedom, a cleansing of the soul, an immortal inspirational classic, "Hope" follows God's will and sleeps in the Bible with its inner pages hollowed out, attached to Andy's tall body

, crawling in the 500-yard sewer, and finally, the only dirty road sent Andy to the brave new world. This paragraph

The journey of redemption full of despair and heaviness comes from the infamous Shawshank Prison, from the script created by China's most dazzling talented film director Yang Ming, and from the work of philosophical director Roger Moore. "The Shawshank Redemption" brings

It is the everlasting and sincere friendship, the indomitable soul forging and the endless fire of destiny."

"In addition, we have to admire that such a classic story script full of American spirit was produced by a talented director from China!"

"Yang's talents and talents really make everyone jealous."

...

American entertainment news gave the film "The Shawshank Redemption" high praise.

At the same time, he also spoke highly of Yang Ming's talent.

In other words, the script Yang Ming wrote this time made countless American film professionals look upon him with admiration.

No one thought that such a classic American story was actually written by Yang Ming.

It's so surprising.

After reading the news on the American Internet for a while, Yang Ming ignored the matter and began to revise the script of "Dragon Eagle Down".

He planned to revise the script almost before General Xiong arrived.

Then he wanted to obtain the other party's authorization to personally interview those soldiers who successfully retreated from Somalia.

Then compare it with the script and correct any inappropriate parts.

After all, the history is different and the country is different, so the script must be carefully revised to be more in line with the values ​​of today's world.

Yang Ming may not care about the heights "Shawshank Redemption" can reach in the United States and what kind of evaluation it gets, but when the news came back to China from the United States, the media were shocked by Yang Ming when they got the news.

.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and at this time, it happens to be the time when the Golden Dragon Awards and Academy Awards are announced.

Countless movies are preparing to work hard at this time, hoping to win more awards.

Originally, the attention of the domestic media was basically focused on the Golden Dragon Awards. All media were speculating on the shortlist for each Golden Dragon Award. Which film has the greatest chance of winning the award and becoming the winner. They were all speculating on Yang Ming.

Between the two movies "The Fast and the Furious" and "Butterfly Lovers", which one will be the biggest winner?

But no one thought of it.
