Back To 1995: Chapter 799 wipe clean

  Chapter 799 Eat and wipe clean

  Peter Jackson couldn't hide the excitement on his face. Peter Jackson really liked to build Weta special effects studio and play special effects.

   But who can refuse to direct a series of movies with a big production of 300 million US dollars, especially a famous movie like "Lord of the Rings".

  Peter Jackson couldn't help looking at the office building where Song Yang was, and took a deep breath. He knew that this was his chance. Song Yang gave him the chance. Whether he can seize it depends on his ability!

   Entering the office building of Western Films, Song Yang saw a lot of trophies in the showroom inside the building, but none of them were trophies from famous film festivals.

This is the gap between Western Films and other Hollywood giants. Fame is far worse than lack of foundation. Sometimes these things are worthless, and sometimes they are extremely important. Trophies such as film festivals can be shown off.

  Even when selling one’s body, these things can have bonuses. Many movie fans and users still eat the brands of these movie companies.

  Of course, Western Films is not as famous as those old Hollywood film giants, and they can earn no less than them!

"This year, Western Films and other film studios have produced a total of three films for Jenny. After Christmas, they will be released one after another. I think Jenny should be able to get some nominations and trophies. This year's America is the fastest For the Progressive Actress Award, I think it must be Jenny!"

   After entering the office, Ted Sarando first praised Jenny, and these words made Jenny very happy.

  The media and those in Hollywood have frequently arranged and criticized Jenny's acting skills. If she can win an award, Jenny will be able to shut the mouths of those people.

   Song Yang couldn't help shaking his head and laughing when he heard Ted Sarando's words. He knew that Ted Sarando's words were basically rhetoric, just to make Jenny happy.

  Song Yang doesn't know how much Jenny's acting skills have improved in the past year, but if she wants to win awards at professional film festivals such as Oscars, Golden Globes, and Radio Film Critics Association Awards, it is probably not enough.

Of course, if one day Western Films becomes the boss of Hollywood, and Ted Sarando becomes the president of the most powerful film company in Hollywood, just like the Disney Emperor Eisner, the members of the Oscar Film Academy will all become People from the western film industry, Song Yang feels that it is still possible to win an Oscar for Best Actress for Jenny.

But before that, it is still a bit difficult to get Oscar to bow down to the western film industry. In addition to Oscar, there are countless film festivals in the world, such as Sundance Film Festival, Tribeca Film Festival and so on. , a little bit of operation, donate a dollar, send a few announcements, gold-plate Jenny's resume, etc., it's still no problem.

  Song Yang patted Jenny's hand, and Jenny, who got the promise, left contentedly and went to her studio in the Western Films office area.

Jenny has also set up her own studio, and the office is located in the Western Films headquarters building. She also has Hayley, and the contracts of several attendants are all in her small studio. The number of visits is not many, but every time she comes to Western Films, Jenny will go to her studio to inspect and give a bonus.

The few employees working in Jenny's studio, I dare not say that they are the most promising among Hollywood practitioners, but they are definitely the least stressed. They don't need to worry about resources at all, and they get a lot of bonuses. In a Hollywood media evaluation, Jenny ranked first in the ranking of the best artists in the studio and assistants!

   After Jenny left, Ted Sarando showed a helpless look to Song Yang. He dared to use some words to Jenny, but he didn't dare to face Song Yang.

   "Song, I promise, in the future, Western Films will definitely win an Oscar for Miss Jenny!"

Song Yang nodded noncommittally. He didn't have any obsession with winning an Oscar. The trophy that Jenny won was just a little more embellishment. She didn't need to live by winning the award to get a movie The favor of the company and the big money owner, what opportunities they got, and so on.

If you really want to be desperate, mobilize all contacts, and even use people like congressmen from Capitol Hill to appear on the stage, then Song Yang will definitely be able to manage one or even several Oscars. Compared with the king of Oscar public relations, Harvey Weinstein Like it, it is much more direct and effective, so you don’t need to work hard. You can just grab it directly. The key depends on whether you need to do that!

  Really using such a high price to win an Oscar, besides being able to swear a wave of power to the outside world and attract a wave of hatred, Song Yang can't think of any other uses.

  Ted Sarando put several financial statements, data of various movies and TV drama projects in front of Song Yang, these are the core data of Western Film Industry.

  The big sponsor finally came here. Ted Sarando naturally wanted to present all the data of Western Films to Song Yang, so that Song Yang could know that Western Films is not just for nothing.

Ted Sarando also knew that with the revenue of Western Films, in Song Yang's hands, it was not the most important industry at all, and it didn't even rank in the top five. Influence, companies such as Alcatel Mobile, ICQ, America Telecom, Double Click, PayPay, etc., are far more important than Western Films!

   "If the distributor can settle the box office revenue of "The Matrix" on time, plus the revenue from TV drama projects, it is estimated that Western Films will be able to make a profit this year!"

Ted Sarando said that the western film industry has made a lot of money in general this year. Just two "Matrix" series movies, excluding production costs, publicity costs, bank interest, etc., have made a lot of money. of.

Of course, the most amazing thing about Hollywood companies is that they can turn a movie that is clearly profitable through various accounts into a loss. As for taxes, they naturally don’t have to pay. As for celebrities, they are not so lucky. After all, the salary is traceable, and they can't play tricks even if they want to.

  The most profitable company in Hollywood is of course Disney. Disney has thoroughly grasped the entire film industry chain from movies to theme parks, resorts, and movie derivatives. This is beyond the reach of Western Films.

Song Yang looked at Ted Sarando and nodded, he recognized everything he had done in Western Films. Since he took over Western Films, he was able to bring Western Films on the right track and handle a lot of movies. , TV drama project, Ted Sarando has proven his ability.

   "What about the online video business?"

  Song Yang asked Ted Sarando about another business of Western Films. In Song Yang's view, the online video business is more important than the movies Western Films is shooting now!
