Beauty Comprehensive 1999

The opening ceremony is an activity that has only emerged in the world's entertainment industry in the last ten years.

Speaking of it, it is also related to David Cole, the great director of the century.

Originally, there was no opening ceremony in Hollywood, only the opening press conference, but it is usually held when a big company is working on a large-scale film project, and it is just a press conference, and some media reporters are invited to come over to ventilate , or let the male and female protagonists stir up scandals, this behavior is also a kind of publicity warm-up, so that the audience can understand some of the movie's situation in advance and increase some exposure.

However, as David Cole entered the industry, he began to hold opening ceremonies similar to religious blessing ceremonies in the projects he led.

That is to say, clergy are invited to hold mass or consecration and worship ceremonies, mainly for cameras and secondly for people.

At first, everyone thought it was a quirk of David Cole, and there were many jokes about his voice at that time, but with the young director's repeated success, people in the circle began to notice this situation.

So there was an example of learning from David Cole to pray and worship God before turning on the machine.

There are some successful ones and some unsuccessful ones, but the people of the White Eagle Federation are superstitious to begin with, and the entertainment industry is even more superstitious, so this behavior of holding the opening ceremony to pray for blessings has gradually spread.

Up to now, the large and small crews in North America include TV drama crews, but before shooting, they have to hold a start-up ceremony, mainly to spend money to buy peace of mind. What do the actors think?

If you don't do it and something goes wrong during the shoot, it will definitely create an atmosphere of panic and make it difficult for the shooting process to go smoothly.

Such an ethos has also added a relatively stable income to the clergy of various religious sects in North America, and even some magic sticks, so that these guys have a good impression of the great director of the century.

Xie Zihao doesn't know much about the crew of The Lord of the Rings in the original time and space, but in his impression, there didn't seem to be any big publicity activities in the early stage of filming. Of course, it may be because of the activities abroad. Xie Zihao didn't know, after all, he is not in the entertainment industry. people.

But this world is different. With two popular actors Xie Zihao and Sophia Cole joining, even if the director doesn't say anything, the production company and investors behind it will seize this opportunity and make good use of it.

After all, the popularity of these two people is just right. After Lost was released, not only did they make a lot of money at the box office, it reached a box office income that many literary films can't match, and they also gained a lot in awards.

Although the two highest awards in the Federation, the Film Academy Award and the Film and Television Association Award, are definitely not for Sophia and Xie Zihao. After all, they are too young, and they are new directors and actors. Unless it is a top-level work that is at the peak of everything, otherwise at their age, awards such as the director award, best film award, and leading actor and actress award are definitely not for them. Secondary awards like best cinematography, best editing, etc.

But in Lost, Xie Zihao and Sophia are the male and female protagonists respectively, so they can't brazenly apply for the Best Supporting Actor award, so these two awards are destined to miss them, and being able to get relevant nominations is considered to take care of newcomers.

Even people with a discerning eye can know that those movies that won important awards are probably not as exciting as Lost in terms of director level and acting skills, but this kind of rule that has existed for nearly a hundred years will not be easily broken for anyone, even if Sofia is a great director. Daughter is also unlikely.

On the contrary, in recent months, Lost can be said to have gained a lot in other secondary film awards and film awards in Europe.

First of all, the National Film Academy Awards awarded Sofia the best director award, and Xie Zihao's best actor is also the best actor, because he has no time to be received by Sofia. These are the two most important awards for Lost.

After all, the National Film Academy Award is the film selection award second only to the three major international film festivals in Europe.If it weren't for the three major European international film festivals, the films must be premiered at the film festivals to participate in the selection, and the time cannot be staggered, I am afraid that Lost is likely to win further international awards.

Wei Dake also felt sorry for his daughter in front of Xie Zihao many times. He has filled up the three major film festivals in Europe in recent years. He won the best director twice and the best film once. If his daughter can also win one of them, then the parents The two women have jointly won the recognition of international awards, which will definitely become a big story in the entertainment circle.

The reason why she didn’t choose to go to the three major European film festivals without showing it for the time being is because Sofia didn’t think too much when filming this film, and she didn’t have that much confidence in her directing ability. She just wanted to prove herself at that time The ability to get rid of the black history of participating in his father's movie and being sprayed.

Moreover, Lost originated from a fantasy of Sophia, and it is not the kind of art film specially made for awards.

I just didn't expect that after the film was made, it turned out to be an unexpected success.

But Sophia herself has self-knowledge, knowing that her director skills are not as high as those people praise, and the reason why the film Lost is so successful, she thinks that apart from the help of several assistant directors and photographers, The actor's acting skills and appearance accounted for not only half, but at least [-]% of the reason.

After all, when she watched the film for the first time, she couldn't help but be overwhelmed by Xie Zihao's incomparably handsome face and mysterious charm.

This time Sophia played the role of an elf princess, but she was not in a relationship with the elf prince played by Xie Zihao, but fell in love with a human prince, and then chose to give up the power and lifespan of the elf, and live with him as a human. lifetime.

Although there is no emotional scene with Xie Zihao, it is a gimmick for the two of them to participate in the same movie again, so this time the organizer has invited a lot of media to prepare for a big one, so that this movie project will become popular before it is shot .

On the matter of inviting the clergy to preside over the opening ceremony, director Peter Jackson also specifically consulted Xie Zihao and Sophia for their opinions.

After all, one of these two is an investor, and the other is the investor's daughter, and they are both celebrities who have become famous in the past year. Although there are several other actors who have higher acting skills and celebrity status than these two It exists, but in terms of popularity, it is really not as good as the two popular newcomers.

"I have a recommendation candidate. I wonder if a shamanistic director who advocates nature is acceptable?"

Regarding the director's question, Xie Zihao also recommended his girlfriend to host the opening ceremony.

Peter Jackson was a little surprised when he heard this, but as a hardcore fan of fantasy literature, he certainly knew what shamanism was.

"Shamanic priests? Mr. Sherman, are you talking about the priests of the Aboriginal tribe?"

Xie Zihao shook his head slightly and said with a smile:
"No, she is a friend of mine. She is a psychic and a shaman who believes in the way of nature. She is not from an aboriginal tribe, and she is not the same as those scammers on the market!"

After inquiring about the other party's situation, and knowing that the shaman's father was an executive in the Upper Golden State area, Peter Jackson immediately decided that this was him, even if the other party was a crappy swindler. With this relationship, he will also choose to develop a relationship with this person.

The director agreed, and Sophia Cole, who was in the same camp as Xie Zihao, would naturally not object, so it was decided that Melinda Wilson, a psychic and shaman, would host the opening ceremony of the crew.
