Back To 1995

   Chapter 799 Eat and wipe

  Peter Jackson's face can't hide his excitement. He established a Weta special effects studio, and playing special effects is really what Peter Jackson likes.

   But who can refuse to direct a series of movies that cost 300 million US dollars, especially a well-known movie like "The Lord of the Rings".

   Peter Jackson couldn't help looking at the office building where Song Yang was, and took a deep breath. He knew that this time was his chance. Song Yang gave him a chance. Whether he could seize it or not depends on his ability!

   Entering the office building of Western Pictures, Song Yang saw a lot of trophies in the showroom in the building, but they were not trophies from well-known film festivals.

This is the gap between Western Pictures and other Hollywood giants now. Fame and background are far worse than lack. Sometimes these things are worthless, and sometimes they are extremely important. Trophies such as film festivals can be shown off.

   Even when you are selling yourself, these things can have bonuses. Many movie fans and users still eat these movie company brands.

   Of course, the fame of Western Pictures is no better than those old Hollywood movie giants, and they can earn no less than them!

"This year, Western Pictures has teamed up with other film studios to produce a total of three films for Jenny, which will be released one after another after Christmas. I think Jenny should be able to get some nominations and trophies. This year's America is the fastest. For the Progressive Actress Award, I think it's Jenny!"

   After entering the office, Ted Sarando first touted Jenny, and Jenny was elated by these words.

  The media and the Hollywood group have choreographed and criticized Jenny's acting skills. If she can win the award, Jenny will be able to stop the mouth of those people.

   Song Yang couldn't help shaking his head and laughing when he heard Ted Sarando's words. He knew that Ted Sarando was basically just talking, and it was just to make Jenny happy.

  Song Yang doesn't know how much Jenny's acting skills have improved over the past year, but it's probably not enough to win awards at professional film festivals such as the Oscars, the Golden Globe Awards, and the Broadcast Film Critics Association Award.

Of course, if one day, Western Pictures becomes the boss of Hollywood, Ted Sarando becomes the president of the most powerful film company in Hollywood, just like Eisner, the emperor of Disney, the people of the Academy of Film Academy will become People from Western Pictures, Song Yang felt that it was still possible for Jenny to win an Oscar for Best Actress.

But before that, it's still a little difficult to get Oscar to submit to Western Pictures. In addition to Oscar, there are countless film festivals around the world, such as the Sundance Film Festival, Tribeca Film Festival, etc. , work a little bit, donate a US knife, send out a few announcements, gold-plated Jenny's resume, etc., it's still no problem.

  Song Yang patted Jenny's hand, and Jenny, who was promised, left with satisfaction and went to his studio in the office area of ​​Western Pictures.

Jenny has also set up her own studio. The office is located in the headquarters building of Western Films. She also has contracts with Hailey and several little sisters, all of which are in her small studio. There are not many times, but every time she comes to Western Pictures, Jenny has to visit her studio and give out a bonus.

The staff working in Jenny's studio are not the most promising among Hollywood practitioners, but they are definitely the least stressed. There is no need to worry about resources at all, and they still receive a lot of bonuses. In a Hollywood media evaluation, Jenny ranked first in the ranking of the best artists in the studio and assistants!

   After Jenny left, Ted Sarando showed a helpless look to Song Yang. He dared to use some words on Jenny, but he didn't dare to face Song Yang.

   "Song, I promise that in the future, Western Pictures will definitely win the Oscar for Miss Jenny!"

Song Yang nodded noncommittally. He has no obsession with which Oscar to win. The trophy that Jenny won is just a little more embellishment. She doesn't need to live by winning awards and then winning movies. The favor of the company and the big money owner, what opportunities are there, and so on.

If you really want to recklessly, mobilize all contacts, and even use characters like members of Congress Hill to appear, then Song Yang will definitely be able to operate one or even several Oscar trophies. This is compared to the Oscar PR king Harvey Weinstein. The ilk is to be more direct and effective. You don't need to work **** various gift public relations. Just grab it directly. The key depends on whether you need to do that!

   Really spend such a big price to win an Oscar, apart from being able to swear a wave of power and a wave of hatred to the outside world, Song Yang can't think of any other use.

  Ted Sarando put several financial statements and data on various movies and TV series projects in front of Song Yang. These are the core data of Western Pictures.

   The big sponsor finally came. Ted Sarando naturally wanted to present all the data of Western Pictures to Song Yang, so that Song Yang would know that Western Pictures did not eat dry rice.

Ted Sarando also knew that, with the revenue of Western Pictures, Song Yang was not the most important industry at all, and it couldn't even rank in the top five. Influence, Alcatel Mobile, ICQ, America Telecom, Double Click, PayPay and other companies are far more important than Western Pictures!

   "If the box office revenue of "The Matrix" can be settled on time by the distributor, plus the revenue of TV series projects, then it is expected that Western Pictures will be able to make a profit this year!"

Ted Sarando said that this year, the Western Film industry in general has made a lot of money. The two "Matrix" series of movies alone have made a lot of money, excluding production costs, publicity costs, bank interest, etc. of.

Of course, the most amazing thing about Hollywood companies is that they can turn a well-earned movie into a loss through various accounts. As for taxes, naturally they don't have to pay it. As for the stars, they are not so lucky. After all, the remuneration is traceable, and it is impossible to play tricks.

  The most profitable company in Hollywood is, of course, Disney. Disney’s entire movie industry chain, from movies to theme parks, resorts, to movie derivatives, has been thoroughly understood by Disney, which is beyond the reach of Western Pictures.

Song Yang looked at Ted Sarando and nodded. It was a recognition of what he had done in Western Pictures. Since he took over Western Pictures, he was able to bring Western Pictures on the right track and handle a lot of movies. , TV series projects, Ted Sarando has proven his ability.

   "What about the online video business?"

   Song Yang asked about Ted Sarando's other business of Western Pictures. In Song Yang's opinion, the online video business is a bit more important than the movies that Western Pictures is currently shooting!
