At the beginning of the month, Mikhail only had influence over the Kremlin Palace and some places in Moscow. After meeting with Boris, he proposed to transfer ownership of the Kremlin Palace, resign and hand over the armed forces and the most important one.
Briefcase - the one with the nuclear code.
Boris applied to the United Nations for Russia to inherit the seats and powers of the original alliance.
Although the Orthodox Christmas falls at the beginning of January every year, either by coincidence or because Boris wanted to give the Americans a gift, the handover ceremony was held on the 24th, Christmas Eve, American time.
The live TV broadcast witnessed all this happening.
The commander-in-chief, George Sr., who picked up a large wallet, gave a speech on prime time television in the evening. He reviewed the course of the Cold War and told everyone that the cloud of nuclear war hanging over the Americans had been greatly dissipated.
After nine commanders, his wish finally came true during the tenure of George Sr. He also expressed personal gratitude to the alliance's commander Mikhail on behalf of the people of America...for his wisdom, foresight and courage.
However, George Sr. changed the subject. He said that the country was also facing the problem of economic recession. He also knew that Americans were also facing difficult times. He promised that he would be committed to solving domestic problems as well as solving international problems.
Finally, he returned to the meaning of this historic moment, saying that the newly independent country and the children of America would live in a better world.
"On this special Day of Peace on Earth, I would like to express my goodwill to all mankind. May God continue to bless the people of America. Merry Christmas."
"Oh..." This night's conversation may be the most dramatic one ever delivered by the commander-in-chief. Aunt Karen was someone who experienced the peak of the Cold War. Her husband also died in a local conflict during the Cold War.
This speech brought tears to my eyes.
Ronald hugged his aunt tightly, and Donna and little Doug also took the opportunity to say that they would get married next year, which made their aunt cry again. Afterwards, everyone set off fireworks on the grass, and the whole family happily took a family photo.
…
"It's really terrible. Nowadays, these public relations for award-winning movies are almost useless."
After all, it is the end of the Cold War that lasted more than 40 years. Ordinary Americans are having some fun and celebrating in the economic recession. Although bank deposits and pension expectations continue to fall, maybe the economy will turn to prosperity in the future? Eastern Europe and
The original alliance countries were all places waiting to be developed commercially...
Therefore, the public relations effects of several previous movies aiming for Oscars were very poor. Especially "The Prince of Tides", which was released on the same day as the alliance's disintegration, was basically ignored in newspapers and TV media.
Can't find any influence.
"Barbra Streisand is so angry that all these public relations actions have been in vain..." Michael Gray, Ronald's public relations consultant, handed Ronald the compiled report brief.
Barbra Streisand really made a lot of moves. First of all, Pat Conroy, the author of the original novel of the movie, publicly gave Streisand a copy of the original novel and wrote a congratulatory message on it:
"Dedicated to Barbra Streisand - Queen of Tides...you are many things, but you are also a great teacher...one of the greatest teachers in my life. I respect great teachers and they exist in me
"... I feel honored that you treated my novel with such seriousness and love. Thank you very much, and I will never forget that you returned 'The Prince of Waves' (referring to the movie) as a gift."
Originally, Pat Conroy was a very famous writer, and the hardcover version of his novel collection was being published this time. It would have been a good opportunity for the two of them to praise each other, but unfortunately no one cares about the New York Times bestseller list anymore.
However, the box office of this movie is quite good, surpassing The Assassination of JFK, ranking only behind Disney's "Beauty and the Beast", "Captain Hook", which worked day and night to complete the special effects, and the comedy "Father of the Bride"
,Fourth place.
After all, there are still many hot performances by Barbra Streisand, which are still attractive to some audiences.
Among the movies that are competing for Oscars, this movie has a decent box office. Although it is still far behind blockbuster works such as "The Silence of the Lambs", it is still better than Warren Beatty's "The Great and Powerful".
Much better.
Nowadays, the Oscars are different from those in the blockbuster era, when several studios in the industry held annual awards. Most of the films nominated at that time were box office masterpieces. Nowadays, the judges are more based on the actors with the largest number of people.
Taste is an award for conversion. In the past ten years, the box office of award-winning movies, which may be high or low, is no longer a very important indicator.
The awards season has begun, and the first invitation Ronald received was from the Golden Globe Awards organizing committee.
They asked Ronald in advance whether he would attend the awards show, and if he was willing to show up, they included "Other People's Money" in the lists for Best Movie and Best Actor and Actor.
This award, which relies on celebrity attendance in exchange for broadcast ratings and advertising fees, is now becoming more and more straightforward. As long as you are willing to attend or pay, there is nothing that cannot be "operated".
Ronald originally wanted to decline, but Diane said that although she had won the Golden Globe Award, it was awarded to TV series, and she had not yet received the Golden Globe Film Award.
Sometimes if a woman feels something is wrong, there is nothing she can do to convince her. Ronald tried ineffectively for a while, but Diane insisted on going. She had no choice but to agree.
"I don't know why she wants to receive this award? Didn't I fully support her Oscar for Best Supporting Actress?" When Ronald went to Armani to make clothes, he was still talking about this with his agent Richard.
something.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He and Diane both had a relationship with Giorgio Armani when they were filming "Streets of Rage", and they have been using their clothes as awards dresses for so many years. Originally,
I have already made my Oscar dress, and now I have to make it again. Otherwise, if the media sees me wearing the same dress for two award ceremonies, I don’t know what kind of unpleasant remarks will be made out of it.
It happened that Diane was slowly trying on clothes inside, and Ronald had to wait boredly in the lounge.
"Ronald..."
Kevin Huwen, who had been Ronald's temporary manager, hurried over and whispered in Ronald's ear:
"I came here from Niceta. The city bumpkin was also nominated for the Golden Globe Awards, both for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor. Miss Helen Slater was also invited to participate..."
"Shxt! She is a supporting actress and has no chance of winning. Why invite her?"
Ronald immediately understood that Diane's agent Paula Wagner must have also gotten the news. Originally, the two women were based in Los Angeles and New York and had a tacit understanding that they would not meet each other. How could they attend the Golden Globe Awards at the same time this time?
It was intentional, it must have been intentional. Where did I make any omissions?
"Paula, what's the matter with you? Why do you want Diane to attend the Golden Globe Awards?" Ronald called Paula Wagner angrily.
"What can I do? The news she got from Laura Dern and the record you got for Helen Slater also reached her ears. If I hadn't been clever, I could have figured it out.
Am I tipping you off? I am her agent, should I tell her that you don’t want to go?”
"This... is not impossible..."
"I'm so angry. Come on, Rick, tell your client that this is a broker's behavior."
"Ronald, maybe things are not so bad after all..." Niceta took the phone and said to Ronald.
"No, they both go to the Golden Globe Awards, where there is a round table, and they cause something to happen. Do you want the American audience to watch my gossip?"
"Calm down, Ronald, we will do our best to ensure that this kind of thing doesn't happen. You call Helen first and see if you can convince her..."
"Hey, dear, what are your plans for January?" Ronald had no choice but to call Helen quickly to find out what she was talking about.
"I want to accompany my father on a trip to China. He was very interested in the last trip and had the idea of cooperating with their TV station. I went to help him..." Helen Slater helped last time
I have become the host of a PBS documentary, and this time I will accompany my father to explore potential markets.
"Ah, well, I don't mean that it's a pity. I originally wanted to meet you in the New Year..." Ronald wiped his sweat with a handkerchief.
"Haha, I miss you too, my dear. But it doesn't matter. I will come back to attend the Golden Globe Awards on January 18th. My role in 'City Hillbilly' received three nominations and the organizing committee specially invited
I go……"
"No, can you not... No, I mean... there is nothing interesting about the Golden Globe Awards. How about you find a place for us to travel?"
Ronald sweated again. These two women were usually very gentle, but the more they were like this, the more afraid they were of making a big fuss. If they wanted something noisily with him, they would not be so worried.
"Honey, I'm going to have a party with Helen Hunt when I come back to talk about our drama troupe. How about this? You miss me so much. After the Golden Globe Awards, where do we plan to go..."
Ronald was self-defeating and had to hang up the phone. It seemed that there was no way to prevent them from attending.
"Honey……"
Diane's voice came from behind.
"ah……"
Ronald was startled, why did he give him a "surprise" quietly?
"What's wrong with you? You're sweating profusely. Is there something wrong?" Diane looked at him with a smile.
"I'm fine. I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable just now. I'm fine now..."
"Ah, it's okay. That's good. Let's see how I wear this one? Or this one?" Diane showed off her clothes.
"Both are good, both are good, I want both..." How could Ronald still think about which one was better? Of course he bought them both.
…
"The main reason is that their two best friends are instigating it. You got Miss Helen Slater an album, which made Diane jealous. This is a treatment you never gave her. And you got Diane the best actress award."
The public relations battle also made Helen feel uncomfortable, after all, she is mainly an actress."
After an emergency meeting, Niceta, Paula Wagner and Richard went to Ronald to report the problem.
"I..." Ronald thought to himself that I had tried my best to give the two of them the same treatment. But he couldn't help but his best friend was encouraging him.
"For the current plan, you should find a public relations expert first, just to be prepared." Niceta was also helpless. He did not expect that one of his clients who was the least involved in gossip would now have to find a public relations expert for crisis management.
.
"I have a public relations consultant..." Ronald instinctively did not want more people to know his privacy.
"This is not ordinary public relations, this is a specialized celebrity personal crisis public relations expert. It is a specialized industry. You have to believe in professionalism, Ronald." Paula Wagner also advised him, "This is what all Hollywood stars have.
The experts in this industry have been tested for a long time. Just trust the person we choose for you. She is the best."
"Hello, I'm Kingsley, you can call me Pat..."
The public relations expert recommended by Paula Wagner is a female, an expert from an old public relations crisis management company, and now she has opened a company by herself.
"Hello, Pat..." Ronald signed a cooperation confidentiality agreement with her, and now they can discuss the problem.
"First of all, what I want to say is that with our joining, you don't have to worry. Just continue your comfortable life. Among my clients, you are considered to be very moral, even the stars of old Hollywood
Not as good as you.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Leave the affairs of the two of them to professionals. You just need to continue your life and continue to produce good-looking movies."
"Is that all?" Ronald saw her speaking calmly. If something happens at the awards show, it will be broadcast live on NBC nationwide.
"Don't worry, Doris Day got married twice and Frank Sinatra had women's problems every six months. Have you heard any gossip?" Pat Kingsley asked confidently.
"No, do they have any gossip? Why didn't I know?" Ronald heard the story of Doris Day being defrauded of all her money by her third husband and lawyer, and Frank Sinatra also had some dealings with gangsters.
There were rumors about it, but he couldn't remember any of the detailed gossip.
"That's right, because I am...you can call my clients to confirm my strength." Pat Kingsley conveyed a strong sense of security.
Ronald saw that there were people like Joan Crawford and Charlie Chaplin on her client list. They were all as wealthy and influential as herself, and could ensure that their scandals would not be exposed and would be exposed to the public.
By maintaining a good image in front of others, I have a lot less worries.
"I think you convinced me..." Ronald felt that this was the right expert.
"Very well, you are the most intelligent and calm among my clients, and I am glad to have the opportunity to work with you.
The key to the problem is not to remediate the crisis afterwards, but to establish a long-term road map and strictly limit the scope of exposure of gossip about you. You have to build a fence and a steel wall against the paparazzi who come to investigate."
"Well..." Ronald is not afraid of the paparazzi. He is a member of the media himself. This time it was just because he couldn't control the live broadcast...
But this Pat Kingsley is very powerful. According to her plan, Ronald feels that her relationship with the major media is not generally good, and any leaks may be rectified.
Although I have already entered the rich and powerful class of Hollywood, my foundation is still shallow. I still need to get to know these powerful tool people more...
