Chapter 1234 Everything Is For Money

Hearing that the winner was Eddie Albert, countless Hollywood practitioners couldn't help cursing in their hearts.

But this does not affect the mood of Annie and everyone in the Roman Holiday crew.

Can't change the result.

The other three nominees shook their heads helplessly, but had to adjust their mood, and clapped with smiles.

As senior practitioners, many people have long understood that Oscar is essentially a game for rich people, or people who intend to spend money.

Therefore, many people told the media early in the morning that being nominated is a victory.

Of course, expecting a miracle is an unavoidable self-comfort.

The music center was filled with applause. Li Changheng stood up and shook hands with Eddie Albert.

"Congratulations, Eddie."

Eddie Albert was already too excited to contain himself.

I didn't expect much at first, but I got what I wanted unexpectedly. This is stronger than any surprise.

After taking the stage to receive the award, Eddie Albert's tone was trembling. In addition to thanking the director, other actors and staff of the same crew, he fully thanked and mentioned Li Changheng and Annie 11 times.

The audience in front of the TV only thought that it was thanks to Li Changheng for choosing him as a supporting role, and that Roman Holiday was indeed brilliant, but the colleagues knew that the fool said that there was no public relations, and no fool would believe it.

But the rules are like this, if you really want to jump out and break the news, you will not only offend United Artists, HL Media and Li Changheng, but also the capital behind Li Changheng.

Rather, the entire Hollywood will tacitly boycott this person, and even large and small media will tacitly block this person for the sake of advertising fees and more celebrity gossip.

Once a tacit understanding is formed, there is no newspaper, radio, and TV station's original intention to report, unless you get clear evidence, otherwise you will not be able to appear in front of the audience no matter how much you say.

Li Changheng and Frank, as well as HL Media and United Artists, couldn't just send money directly.

And the results of public relations using lobbying methods are legal in the United States.

The second award goes to Best Animated Feature.

Taking advantage of the singing and dancing performance after the cartoon, Annie whispered into Li Changheng's ear, "Henry, should we release that "Frozen" movie?

Moreover, I shouldn't have listened to you back then. If Havoc in Heaven had signed up, maybe I would have won the award that year. "

Li Changheng shook his head helplessly, "It's useless, there are no awards for feature-length cartoons, and Americans don't award awards to their counterparts in China.

Because if you really do that, putting aside other things and only talking about benefits, it is tantamount to telling the world that the best animation production technology is in the hands of Red Rabbit at this time. "

Although Annie doesn't care about syndrome and treatment, she understands the benefits, and at the same time understands why Li Changheng suppressed "Frozen" and didn't release it for several years.

Thinking about the Chinese cartoon craze that started before, it only became popular for less than two years, and the theaters in Europe and the United States refused to introduce this kind of cartoon again, and they immediately understood that this was to protect their own market and the cartoon industry.

Hearing the sound of singing, Li Changheng turned his head and glanced at the stage casually, and suddenly felt like thunder was rolling from the sky.

A group of women dressed coolly and with their thighs exposed, surrounded a singer with an afro, and danced with their legs high from time to time.

"Fuck, aren't those old guys afraid of teaching bad kids?"

On the contrary, Annie said calmly, "Honey, the box office of colored movies last year was not lower than that of the feature films at all."

Well, to put it bluntly, it is still for money, and Li Changheng has no right to complain here, because he himself signed the proposal submitted by the management of HL Media to open the Midnight Theater.

Even the cable network that is preparing is preparing to launch a midnight channel dedicated to New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.

It's all money.

And the number of subscriptions will definitely exceed the imagination of countless people.

In many states in the United States, it is illegal to sell it out, but it is completely legal for TV stations to broadcast midnight premium channels.

The first one to eat crabs will be 100% full of oil.

Next up is Best Costume Design.

There is basically no suspense about this award, not to mention that Li Changheng's vision is beyond the decades of this era.

Among the other three competitors, the most threatening feature film that focuses on sex hunting. In Li Changheng's eyes, not only the make-up is surprisingly ugly, but the costumes are like a patchwork of carpets.

Roman Holiday claims to cost 50 million U.S. dollars, and it is not only simple and easy to invite several luxury brands to join, several brands in England even begged Li Changheng to let their designers become consultants.

Sure enough, there was no suspense about the result.

Li Changheng stood up and applauded the costume crew at the same time as the corners of his mouth turned up.

When the audience saw three well-known designers on the stage together, they didn’t have the slightest thought of discussing. They just applauded, so as not to lose the opportunity to cooperate with them in the future if they see that they are not active.

And Li Changheng didn't care about these people at all, he applauded casually to get over it, but Annie was unsurprisingly very enthusiastic.

What clothes she usually wears has become the thing that Annie cares about the most, and also the most disgusting and embarrassing thing.

Even though he likes many styles of clothes, he can only wear them once. Li Changheng is fortunate many times that he only needs suits or casual clothes.

Even if you buy ten sets of the same style, you can change it every day and go out with the same dress every day.

After winning two awards in a row, the audience in front of the TV, as well as the audience at the scene, had the idea that there would definitely be big news after tonight.

After the costumes, the two award presenters did not leave the stage, but presented props, scenery and art direction awards again.

Also, not surprisingly, the award was also given to "Roman Holiday", and the reason for the award was the last white evening dress worn by Anne.

The designer who came to the stage to accept the award directly said that the first draft of this dress came from Li Changheng's sketches, which immediately shocked countless audiences that Li Changheng can still design and sketch.

Afterwards, Annie wearing that dress appeared on the TV, which immediately attracted many people to go to the cinema to watch Roman Holiday again.

And this kind of advertising method, which will be commonplace in the future, unexpectedly appeared on the Oscars for the first time.

The other 7 big Hollywood giants suddenly regretted and thought worriedly, why didn't they think of it?

I am also worried that the 10-year contract between HL Media and Oscar will affect the probability of my company winning awards in the future and the effect of publicity.

Then came the key point. The award of the best film directly determines whether Roman Holiday can break the record for the number of awards won, and whether it can win the grand slam of best film, best director, and best actor and actress. Record.

What worries Li Changheng is not "The President's Team" and "The TV Station", but an anti-Vietnam War movie called "Taxi Driver".
