Chapter 1,169 The man behind the scenes

"Sony Columbia Pictures" had always been one of the strong competitors to acquire "MGM Films". As a result, just when "Sony Columbia Pictures" was preparing to hold a celebration party, Lin Feng's "Second Entertainment" suddenly

Deusu, coming from behind at the last moment, acquired the "MGM Film Company", which made "Sony Columbia Pictures" extremely dissatisfied. But in the face of a done deal, "Sony Columbia Pictures" had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill.

I watched the roasted duck fly out of my mouth.

But since then, "Sony Columbia Pictures" has hated Lin Feng. The parent company of "Sony Columbia Pictures" is Sony. Sony's "Sony Records" and Lin Feng's "Second Entertainment"

"It can be regarded as a deep hatred. If it were not for Lin Feng's "Second Entertainment", 50% of the recording rights in the hands of "Sony Records" ace Michael Jackson would most likely be taken back by "Sony Records". The result is "Second Entertainment" again.

"Er Entertainment" stepped in and not only helped Michael Jackson solve his debt crisis, but also poached Michael Jackson from "Sony Records", which made the feud even bigger. In addition, Mariah Carey also jumped ship to

"Second Entertainment" can be said to have a deep feud with "Sony Records".

In addition, Lin Feng established "Second Game" in Japan and threatened to develop home consoles and enter the home console market. This undoubtedly touched the fundamental interests of Sony, which is currently relying on "PS2" to thrive in the home console market.

In addition, Lin Feng once attacked the parent company of "Sony" in the Japanese stock market, making Sony the scapegoat for the collapse of the Japanese stock market. Lin Feng's repeated grievances with Sony can be said that Sony has reached the point where it is not enough to get rid of Lin Feng.

To the point of calming down the hatred in my heart.

But it is not that easy to deal with Lin Feng. Lin Feng's business is mainly in the "online game market" and "personal computer market", as well as a series of electronic product markets. It is not that simple for Sony to crack down on Lin Feng.

. We can only deal with Lin Feng slowly.

This time, Lin Feng invested in "The Sequel of the Demon Cult Master", which is the first 3D martial arts movie, and has attracted much attention from the film industry. Its global box office of 200 million US dollars is also extremely amazing. This naturally caused the "Sony"

"Columbia Pictures" is paying attention to this, and "Sony Columbia Pictures" is also secretly angry about this. What's even more serious is that in the minds of many senior executives of "Sony Columbia Pictures", they think that "The Sequel to the Demon Cult Master"

The reason why it became so popular was also because "Second Entertainment" acquired "MGM Film Company".

With so many coincidences, Lin Feng's application for the "76th Academy Awards" gave "Sony" an opportunity to retaliate against Lin Feng. Therefore, after some calculations, "Sony Columbia Pictures" used its own position in

The influence of the "American Film Institute" deliberately allowed "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Sequel" to receive 13 nominations. As for the final selection, "Sony Columbia" did not do anything, but only let "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer" receive 13 nominations at the last moment.

"The Legend of Dragon Slayer: The Sequel of the Demon Cult Leader" came into the judges' sight. At the same time, no 3D playback equipment was prepared for all judges, just ordinary 2D playback equipment. Finally, coupled with the popularity of "Lord of the Rings 3: Return of the King", and the hearts of many judges

With a little bit of patriotism, it is not surprising that "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Leader Sequel" received 13 nominations, but all of them failed.

Looking at Lin Feng's cold face because of anger on the stage, the executive director of "Sony Columbia Pictures" was extremely happy. The angrier Lin Feng was, the happier he was. As for the declarations of Avril Lavigne, Jessica and Allegra

, this is indeed what the executive director of "Sony Columbia Pictures" expected, but it doesn't matter to him no matter how fierce the fuss is. Anyway, the "American Film Institute" is the one who came forward in this matter. In the end, no matter what the fuss is, it will be with "

"Sony Columbia Pictures" has nothing to do with it. On the contrary, perhaps "Sony Columbia Pictures" can still get a lot of benefits from it.

At this time, Lin Feng, who was standing on the stage, naturally had no idea that all of this was part of someone else's calculation.

Lin Feng took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down.

"Everyone, although the film I invested in and filmed, "The Sequel to the Demon Cult Master", won an unprecedented 13 awards, but in the end, none of them won any awards. This is a shame for me, but for this film

As far as movies are concerned, it cannot overshadow the excellence of this movie!" Lin Feng said loudly.

Everyone sighed. Just from Lin Feng's words, everyone could hear Lin Feng's anger. That was extremely angry!

"With an investment of 30 million U.S. dollars, it ended up with a box office of 200 million U.S. dollars. In terms of return on investment alone, although I don't know whether "The Sequel to the Demon Cult Master" is the best in history, it is definitely enough to rank among the best in history.

Among the most successful movies!" Lin Feng said loudly.

Everyone nodded after hearing this. Especially many big Hollywood directors, they were really surprised that "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Master Sequel" was able to achieve such a high box office at such a low cost. Moreover, everyone also saw the future development of movies from it.

A new direction - 3D movies.

The 3D version of "The Sequel to the Demon Cult Master" was able to earn US$200 million at the global box office. Since a low-cost "The Sequel to the Demon Cult Master" can rely on 3D

The movie earned US$200 million at the box office, but what about other Hollywood blockbusters? How much box office can they earn?

It can be said that from this point of view, the Academy Awards should be awarded to "The Sequel to the Demon Cult Leader", at least such as the "Best Visual Effects" award, which is the

Well-deserved. Of course, this is not to say that "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" is not worthy of its reputation, but "The Sequel to the Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Leader" is more worthy of its reputation.

But now, all 13 awards have been lost, which is really unjustifiable.

"So, here, I still want to thank all the creative staff of "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Leader Sequel", thank the directors Tsui Hark and Wang Jing, and thank the starring actors: Jet Li, Zhang Min, Qiu Shuzhen..." Lin Feng said on the stage

Thank you one by one.

At this moment, all the main creative staff of "The Legend of the Heaven Slaying the Dragon: The Demon Cult Leader Sequel" who were standing in front of the TV, heard Lin Feng's words and burst into tears. Regarding their filming of "The Heaven Slaying the Dragon: The Demon Cult Leader Sequel",

They have been prepared for the cold reception of the "Academy Awards". Jet Li, who has been filming in the United States for several years, is most aware of this. Although Americans admire Chinese Kung Fu very much, that only refers to Chinese Kung Fu, not to China.

Movies. It can be said that the status of Chinese movies in the United States is quite, quite low.

This time, "The Sequel of the Demon Cult Master" unexpectedly won 13 awards. Jet Li was a little surprised, even a little panicked. He couldn't believe it. But thinking about Lin Feng's magic, Jet Li a little bit believed in what he had shot.

The movie may really win a few awards. Even if it is an award that has nothing to do with him, he will be very happy. But in the end, the cruel reality shows that Americans are still extremely disdainful of Chinese movies.

13 awards, 13 failed, even Lin Feng was fooled, which made Jet Li very helpless. He had no choice! Even Lin Feng was fooled, what can an actor like him do? But now I heard that Lin Feng was fooled.

When Feng thanked all the creative staff on stage, Jet Li really felt like crying.

This kung fu superstar, a man, really feels like crying at this moment. Is it possible that Chinese movies want to give an acceptance speech in Hollywood only under this situation? Only with Lin Feng's absolute strength can he make a speech

Isn’t it an acceptance speech?

No! Never! I believe that Chinese movies will be able to truly conquer the world! - At this moment, Jet Li's heart was extremely determined. Because he firmly believed that Lin Feng would never be willing to be played by others. Acquisition from Lin Feng "

"MGM Film Company" shows Lin Feng's desire for the film market.

At this time, Jet Li had a vague idea in his mind. He wanted to sign with "Second Entertainment" and become a contracted artist under "Second Entertainment". Although Jet Li has never signed with any company since leaving Golden Harvest.

But at this moment, he had the idea of ​​signing a contract with "Second Entertainment". He felt that "Second Entertainment" might really be able to realize his ideal - to let Chinese kung fu movies conquer the world again after Bruce Lee.

At this time, on the stage of the Kodak Theater, Lin Feng had just finished his very brief speech of thanks.

"Finally, to all the staff of "The Sequel of the Demon Cult Master", I want to thank you! Even if this movie did not win any awards, you are still the best!" Lin Feng bowed deeply to the photographer.

.

The audience applauded. They applauded not only for the excellence of "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Sequel", but also for those excellent films that failed to win the "Oscar Award". In the history of film, there are many excellent films

The movies ultimately failed to win the "Academy Award", but it cannot be denied that many of them are excellent movies.

At this time, Lin Feng raised his head. But at this time, Lin Feng's eyes had changed.

Just now, Lin Feng's eyes were full of gratitude and guilt. Now, Lin Feng's eyes only had a sharp look, the kind of sharp look that wanted to break everything.

"But now, I, Lin Feng, and the movie I invested in have been treated humiliatingly here. I once again express my absolute dissatisfaction. I never think that the movie I invested in "The Sequel of the Demon Cult Leader" I invested in

Although I have received 13 nominations, I will never win even one award. I never believe it. Unless someone deliberately takes the opportunity to humiliate me! If so, no matter who this person is, I will definitely not let it go.

"Lin Feng stretched out his right hand and slowly pointed around the field.

"I will never let this matter go like this. No matter who you are, if you want to humiliate me, then be prepared to accept the price of my anger!" Lin Feng looked down upon everyone like an emperor, and in the frightened eyes of everyone

Among them, Li Zhiyou, Avril Lavigne, Jessica, Lin Chiling and Allegra left in style.

It's over! From now on, American movies will enter a troubled period! - Spielberg sighed in his heart.

Although he didn't know what Lin Feng was going to do, the jury of the "Oscar Awards" this time was really too much. The so-called fairness is in the hearts of the people, and with Lin Feng's unafraid character and strength, he would definitely win the award.

Something earth-shattering has happened.

That's all, that's all, I just have to be honest about filming and not interfere with these things! - Spielberg has already made up his mind at this moment. From now on, he will concentrate on filming, and he will never interfere with other judges or the like.

Thinking of this, Spielberg stood up, shook his head, turned around and left behind Lin Feng. When he left like this, it was very likely that people would mistakenly think that he and Lin Feng belonged to the same party, but in Spielberg's view, he

We have been friends with Lin Feng for many years, but Lin Feng suffered such a great humiliation. As a friend, he did not directly declare war on Oscar like Allegra did, but it was appropriate to leave with him. As for what others think, he

He can't care about that much. Besides, with his current status, he naturally doesn't care.

But halfway through, Spielberg suddenly remembered something. He looked up at the stunned Kristol on the stage, sighed, thought for a while, and raised his voice.

"Kristol, since this matter has nothing to do with you, why are you still standing here!" Spielberg really admires Kristol, and he doesn't want Kristol to be implicated in this matter.

After all, the trigger for this incident was that Kristol wanted to liven up the atmosphere on the court, so every time before announcing the winners, Lin Feng would stand up and prepare to welcome everyone's congratulations. Who would have expected that he would stand up 13 times and change

I came here 13 times but failed. This is no longer a joke, but a naked humiliation.

If Kristol is still standing here stupidly, Spielberg can guarantee that after Lin Feng returns, the first person he will deal with is Kristol. Compared with the powerful "American Film Academy", Lin Feng may not be able to do anything for a while.

No way, but Lin Feng has too many ways to deal with Kristol as the host. Therefore, Spielberg is also reminding Kristol to prevent him from becoming a needless victim of a struggle.

.

When Kristol was reminded by Spielberg, he was suddenly inspired, and his quick wit also emerged at this critical moment.

"Everyone, including this one, I have hosted a total of 9 Academy Awards ceremonies, but this is definitely the worst Academy Awards ceremony I have ever hosted in my career. It makes me so sad.

Disappointed! Here, I declare that from now on, I will never host the Academy Awards ceremony again!" After saying this, Kristol drifted away, but there was a trace of sadness in his eyes.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Kristol really likes hosting the "Academy Awards" ceremony, which makes him feel like he has a second youth. But this time, even if such a big oolong incident happened,

Lin Feng didn't blame him, and he was a little embarrassed to continue presiding over it. Besides, in order to avoid suspicion and avoid Lin Feng's retaliatory blow, he could only stay out of the matter. After all, the matter still started because of him, not him.

, this matter will not be so outrageous.

Let Lin Feng stand up 13 times and fail 13 times! This is really humiliating. He can only apologize to Lin Feng by never hosting the "Oscar Awards" again.

When Lin Feng heard this, he was slightly startled. But after thinking about it, he naturally understood what Kristol was thinking, and secretly shook his head helplessly. Indeed, if Kristol had not made this declaration, I am afraid Lin Feng would really take advantage of it.

Kristol sacrificed the flag to let everyone know that he is not easy to bully. But now, Lin Feng will naturally not go to Kristol to trouble him. After all, Kristol's declaration is not a big gain.

A little bit more of Lin Feng's momentum.
