Entertainment Empire System
Chapter 789: The party before the Spring Festival
The right to fail seems to be something only Western directors have, but an Easterner has almost no right to fail. Especially this time, the damage he caused was so great that it almost made MGM vomit blood. This is destined to have no place for him in the mainstream West in the future.
At this moment, this guy Coppola also added fuel to the fire on this matter and wrote an article and published it on Huihui.com.
In fact, the focus of this article is the impact of the fiasco of "Windtalkers" on MGM. This film company, which has been around for more than 70 years, may go downhill because of this movie. A loss of more than 100 million US dollars is not something that any company can afford, especially considering that we are currently in an economic crisis and the impact of the Y2K bug has only just passed.
To be honest, the economic environment is not very good. MGM's filming of "Wind Talker" is like a gamble. The disastrous failure of "Wind Talker" shows that the MGM empire is going downhill. If it continues Without decent results, the future of this old Hollywood film company that has produced a large number of classic movies such as "Gone with the Wind" will be difficult to say.
This is a very explosive point of view. After David Johnson, the editor-in-chief of the [New York Times] saw it, he immediately called and bought the copyright of this article for 100,000 yuan, and published it in the [New York Times] Entertainment The front page of the edition.
For a time, there was an uproar in Hollywood, and MGM even said that it would sue Coppola for slander, and said that the company's capital turnover would not be a problem. But the actual situation is known to almost everyone in the circle.
Of course, these are not directly related to Ye Ming, but Ye Ming's name once again appeared in major Hollywood media.
Was it recommended by Coppola? It’s even said that someone specifically studied the meaning behind Ye Ming’s psychotic lines and called it the [big name] phenomenon. After Feng Xiaogang learned about this, he was a little jealous and said that there were so many lines for normal people in the whole movie, but just one line about mental illness made Americans remember it. The level of appreciation of this group of people is really hard to fathom. "
No matter what, at this time, Ye Ming's attention had begun to shift.
[Meteor Garden] Some people originally looked down on this TV series and said it was going to be banned, but Ye Ming's two high-grossing movies were directly sent to the desks of the leaders of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, and the matter was finally suppressed.
It is quite difficult for the leaders of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau to achieve political achievements, especially for Westerners to take over Chinese films. This is even more difficult, but now Ye Ming's popularity in the West is a business card of China. ah.
Therefore, punishing Ye Ming at this time will definitely result in panic after eating too much.
The leader of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau also said that although [Meteor Garden] is a bit of a show of wealth, the general direction is still correct. College students and young people, who are not young and energetic? The words "young and energetic" covered up the matter of "Meteor Garden".
Finally, "Meteor Garden" was also successfully broadcast in the mainland. F4 became popular all over the country and became a phenomenon. At this moment, the only TV series that can compete with Meteor Garden is "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
[The Legend of Zhen Huan] is a TV series that dominates the entire Tianchao TV station. Although it is broadcast on the TV drama channel, its ratings are even stronger than the other series. This is a TV series that can compete with [Meteor Garden] A classic TV series, and the producer of this TV series is the same as "Meteor Garden", both are Brilliant Films.
When writing reports during the Spring Festival, at least the Radio, Film and Television Bureau had two highlights. One was Ye Ming's company's TV series, and the other was Feng Xiaogang's New Year's movie. These two, and the other was "The Legend of Zhen Huan", a pure mainland TV series, created a Miracle dominates the TV drama channel and has killed two TV series. This is the most powerful TV drama channel in the history of Tianchao TV.
As for Feng Xiaogang's "Big Shot", it is also quite impressive. "Wind Talker", a Hollywood blockbuster directed by Wu Yusen and starring Nicolas Cage, actually encountered a waterloo under the attack of "Big Shot", "Wind Talker". The box office of "The Whisperer" is not as high as that of "Big Shot". What is political achievement? For example, the movie "Big Shot" is not called political achievement.
Therefore, this time, the Radio, Film and Television Bureau was also proud and celebrated. The princess held a banquet before the Spring Festival and gathered people from all walks of life in the entertainment industry.
Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige and other great directors were all present. Chen Daoming, Ge You, Jiang Wen and others also appeared at the scene. As for singers, Na Ying, Princess, and even Tian Zhen, who said she had a bad relationship with Na Ying, also came. .
Although they had different tempers with Na Ying, at the moment the two of them were ignoring each other at most, but they did not show any hostility.
Just when everyone was having a drink, suddenly an impatient figure came over. After seeing the snow on his body, everyone frowned. Who is this person? He is so rude and doesn't show up before he comes. Dealing with the wind and snow on yourself outside?
The princess dislikes people who don't deal with details the most. There was a rich man who also found connections to attend the princess's party, but because he didn't notice a detail issue, he was kicked out directly. He has not been here since. The capital has appeared.
Therefore, everyone knows very well that the princess's requirements for details are not generally high. However, just when everyone was waiting for the princess to get angry and drive away the visitor, the princess, who was a little depressed at first, immediately brightened up and hurried over directly in three steps and two steps at a time and said: "Ye Zi, you guy, you dare to come to my party so late, are you sincere?"
The visitor took off his sunglasses and mask, and while patting the snowflakes on his body in the corner, he said: "Sorry, the leader of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau took me to give a report and asked me to introduce my experience in filming TV series to everyone. At that time The leaders of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau are all here, and none of them have left. If you say that I dare to leave alone, am I going to have trouble with myself?
Well, I don't have the guts to do this. Do I still want to make movies or TV series in the future? At this time, I rushed over without even eating.
By the way, do you have anything to eat here? Let me reassure you first. "At this moment, what Ye Ming said was actually a very helpless emotion. The princess cannot be offended, but the Radio, Film and Television Bureau generally cannot be offended casually.
At a time like this, no matter how you say it, what they really represent is the power of life and death over the movie. This right makes people very fearful. At least, in a situation like this, Ye Ming's explanation was satisfactory to the princess.
At this time, the princess reluctantly nodded and said: "You are right about this matter. That guy Lao Xu is busy with all kinds of nonsense all day long. By the way, you are especially right about this point. Leader If you don't say leave, it's hard for you to say leave. I'll report it to Lao Xu later and let them pay attention."
Lao Xu, a deputy director of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, could speak in such a tone, and only someone with a strong background like the princess had the courage.
The princess' mood was also changeable. It was a little late when she saw Ye Ming coming, but in this situation, the princess seemed to have thought of another thing and said: "You told me that there is a way to make it happen." I'm on the big screen, so I take this matter seriously, so in a situation like this, if you don't tell me, then this matter will be quite troublesome."
That's it. Seeing how excited the princess was, Ye Ming didn't feel careless at all. He immediately defended himself and said: "Don't worry about this matter. I have been thinking about how to do something like this without anyone noticing. I have almost finalized the matter. Yes. Well, last time, I asked you to participate in a program, did you participate?"
The princess looked at Ye Ming with contempt and said: "Yi Zi, you'd better not come to play tricks on me in this matter. Don't worry, I have already arranged the matter. I guarantee that there will be no big problem in this matter."
Ye Ming said very definitely: "Princess, don't worry, I will handle this matter very carefully. I will ensure that you can appear in front of the camera smoothly when the time comes."
Seeing such a situation, of course the people present were simply shocked. Such a thing is more reflected in the different treatment. The princess's attitude towards Ye Ming can be seen. At this time, she regards Ye Ming as a very good friend of hers.
The princess doesn't have many friends. In such a situation, Ye Ming is the only one who is about the same age. Therefore, she is quite satisfied with Ye Ming's attitude. At this time, in a situation like this, it seemed that he could talk and laugh with the princess. This was very surprising. The princess went to pick her up in person. This person originally valued Ye Ming very much.
And at this time, the princess and Ye Ming were obviously discussing the next movie, and according to the princess's wishes, she also had to have a performance. This was the most important thing. Where is the identity of the princess?
How can she be in movies and make movies? This is definitely not an easy thing for the princess. Obviously, this meeting was a very effective one. (To be continued)
