437 Give me an explanation
The night was dark, and cars drove out of the manor's door one after another. The manor of the Future World, which was originally booming, gradually became quiet, and a grand party was over.
"Your wine and beef are good." Tom Cruise walked the end: "Your taste of life has improved significantly."
Ronan said directly: "It was made with money."
Tom Cruise said: "There is no need to be so honest."
Ronan shrugged: "I was just a small middle-aged man, and I have my current life all because of wealth."
There is nothing to say about this. In the eyes of many people, he is just a nouveau riche.
"By the way, I'm saying hello to you in advance." Tom Cruise didn't be polite to Ronan: "I'll fire the agent soon, and there may be some trouble."
Ronan understood what he meant and said, "If you need my help, just say it."
Tom Cruise smiled: "Thank you."
Ronan smiled: "You need to be so polite with me? We are all old friends."
Tom Cruise didn't say any more polite words and said goodbye and left the future world.
Watching Tom Cruise leave by car, Ronan returns to the huge banquet hall, and the housekeeper Nikia is instructing people to clean up, because he heard that there is wine to drink Avril, who came from the middle, was also taking the initiative to help.
"Ivy." Ronan called out: "It's enough for Nikia to be responsible for these matters, don't worry about it."
Putting down the bottle in his hand, Avril walked over with a bit of alcohol and said, "Ronan, if there is such a lively thing in the future, you must notify me in advance."
Ronan nodded: "I get it, little drunk."
Avril drank a lot of wine in the evening and said, "It's not easy to find a place to drink with peace of mind." She pulled Ronan and said, "Let's go to your cellar."
Of course, Ronan would not object, and followed Avril into the wine cellar and let her choose a bottle of whiskey.
It is very obvious that Avril hasn't had enough drinks yet.
"Will this affect your singing?" Ronan asked.
"It's okay." Avril didn't seem to care at all: "It's only when you drink regularly that you feel."
Thinking of Britney Spears who was drunkenly still blushed, Ronan didn't say anything more and pulled Avril up the stairs and walked towards the master bedroom on the third floor.
Avril held the bottle and said as he walked, "The production team chose a new song for me. Do you want to listen to it?"
Ronan said, "Of course you have to listen."
Avril hummed softly: "If you fall in love with someone, you will easily lose your body..."
The two walked into the master bedroom on the third floor together, and Avril's singing continued.
Not long after, her singing stopped and another tune rang out. Influenced by Avril's singing, Ronan also remembered a song.
Forget the worries, it’s good to have it grass. After the grass is finished, go to the left grass…
The next morning, Ronan first sent Avril to the record company, and then came to the Embassy Film Company.
"Hero" successfully won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, and of course the promotion and distribution of Embassy Films must keep up. Starting this weekend, it will be widely expanded in North America.
In the past more than a month of preview, "Hero" has always maintained the scale of ten theaters, and its good reputation in the Chinese community and operations played an important role. It won a North American box office of $1.35 million in five weeks.
It is said that on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, the box office of "Hero" has exceeded 200 million soft girl coins.
Although it still cannot compare with the box office record set by "Titanic" in 1998, for the oriental domestic films of this era, they have already seen all the mountains.
By the weekend, "Hero" will expand to more than 2,000 theaters in North America.
Of course, the theaters that have expanded screenings will still focus on the Chinese community.
After the expansion of screenings in North America, "Hero" will also be promoted to be released overseas by the Embassy Films.
The Oscar effect is also effective in overseas markets.
However, the Embassy Films' Oscar public relations on "Hero" quickly stopped. The film was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film. In fact, it is not difficult for people with a little rationality to see that the possibility of "Hero" winning the Best Foreign Language Film of the Oscar is negligible.
"Hero" is not "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" with an oriental cloak.
From the outside to the core, this film is all Eastern, and it is not the type of "City of God" that actively discredits its own city and country. It is too difficult to get a group of middle-aged and elderly white Americans to vote for the final vote.
An oriental film does not blacken your own country, your city, your beliefs or nation, and it is completely epic difficulty to want heavyweight Oscars.
In this regard, Oscars also have something in common with the three major European art film festivals.
The promotional and public relations team of Embassy Film and the corresponding resources were all transferred to the awards for the Best Animation Short Film of Peppa Pig.
Ronan wants to make sure that Peppa Pig gets the best animated short film Little Golden Man as much as possible.
If you can get this little golden man, the subsequent animated series will attract the attention of countless people. The Oscar halo and effect are relatively easy to use.
But after the Oscar nomination list was announced, the most fiercer ones in the media were "Pianist" and Roman Polansky.
Now, not only did Roman Polansky's strong case and the parties involved dragged out to whip the body.
Previously, the immoral scandal about Roman Polansky 26 years ago was hyped up by the media for a while, and it is well known to everyone.
Under huge public pressure, the FBI and the judicial department announced that if Roman Polansky came to attend the award ceremony, he would be arrested.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is someone pushing it behind the scenes.
Oscar public relations is no longer as simple as promoting itself. In the hands of a fat man, it has gradually become the norm to attack competitors.
But this will not affect the view of Roman Polansky's directorial ability in the Hollywood circle.
There is a principle in the Hollywood circle that everyone recognizes, and art and humanity are always different.
Otherwise, Sean Connery would not have been popular for so many years, Morgan Freeman would not have become a golden supporting role, Woody Allen should have been finished long ago...
There are countless examples in this regard.
Beverly Hills, Century City.
On a building not far from Caa, middle-aged Pat Kinsley was wearing Chanel and pushed open the door of Tom Cruise's office.
"Good morning, Tom." Pat Kinsley greeted with a smile.
Tom Cruise sat behind the desk without moving, and there was still a stack of information in front of him. His face was a little gloomy and pointed to the chair opposite him: "Sit, Pat."
After looking at Tom Cruise's handsome face, Pat Jinsili pulled open the chair and sat down openly.
Pat Jinsli asked, "What's the matter if you call me so urgently?"
"A little thing." Tom Cruise looked calm and his voice was no different from before: "Part, should you give me an explanation for the nomination for Best Actor?"
Pat Jinsili's brows moved slightly, and countless fine crow's feet appeared at the corners of her eyes. She said, "I'm very sorry, Tom. I haven't done my job well, and the competition in this session has become more intense, and our subject matter is not superior, even..."
Tom Cruise interrupted Pat Kingsley: "Is that all?"
Pat-Jinsili's heart sank and suddenly had a bad premonition. After all, he understood what he did.
"There are nominations for Oscars, which cannot be forced." Pat Jinsili said: "Be good at doing things, publicity should be appropriate, public relations should be strong, and good luck."
She said for granted: "We did all the first three items well, but we were a little bit lucky. You don't have to worry. We can continue next year..."
"Don't luck?" Tom Cruise laughed in anger, picked up the top part of the information in front of him and threw it directly to Pat Kingsley: "Since the awards season, you have participated in five promotional canvassing activities about me in total. But the other one, you have participated in sixteen times!"
Pat-Jinsili's face darkened, and then returned to normal: "You two are my clients."
Tom Cruise took out another piece of information and threw it in front of Pat Jinsli: "You have contacted seven media outlets for me, and there are twenty-five ones on the other!"
Before Pat Jinsli could reply, Tom Cruise threw another piece of information over: "I will pay you $3 million in advance as activity funding, of which the bill can be paid only $1.8 million, and where is the other $1.2 million spent?"
Tom Cruise's tone kept getting colder: "What's going on in the media that use the public opinion that belittles me and sympathizes with Kidman?"
Pat Jinsli was about to speak up when Tom Cruise threw her another document: "You'd better speak up after reading it!"
The information fell on the desk in front of Pat Jinsili, but Pat Jinsili did not open it and took a look.
"It's not what you think, Tom." Pat Kinsley, as an agent, is a basic skill: "You have misunderstandings about me, we need to talk calmly. You can calm down first, okay?"
Tom Cruise was calm and said, "Pate, I just trust you very much, not stupid. I always believe that you are an excellent agent and will think about me in everything. I never doubted you before this Oscar."
If Ronan hadn't reminded him, he might have trusted Pat Kinsili as always.
"You have let my trust down and you are squandering my trust." Tom Cruise's tone became colder: "We have worked together for nearly ten years, and I didn't expect you to become like this."
Pat Jinsli's eyes showed more and more crow's feet, and she defended her defense: "Tom, you really misunderstood me. I may not have done some of the work well..."
