Chapter 49: Is a miracle director

rumor.

Claude said this on the phone, without annoyance or complaints, only praise. Eisner is worthy of being an old fox, but such a simple little method has caused us to suffer a considerable loss.

Rumors are the simplest and most common method in finance. To put it more than just an exaggeration, the randomness of finance is probably only slightly higher than that of the quantum state. Take stocks for example, maybe it was rising sharply in the last second, but it turned out to be a huge spill in the next second. Even Buffett dared not guarantee that he could seize the fleeting opportunity every time, let alone other people.

Because of this characteristic, financial products are easily affected by the outside world, and rumors are the easiest means to influence. Senior executives of a company have contacted bankers, large investors are preparing to withdraw investments from a company, internal discord, etc. Once these news comes out, the stocks of the company will inevitably fluctuate.

However, the most common method is that rumors can achieve in general not much results. After all, rumors are rumors. They either exaggerate negative things or simply fabricate them out of thin air. There is no essential difference between them and tabloid gossip. If it is a fact, it is not a rumor but a scandal.

Therefore, as long as the company involved responds quickly enough and refutes the rumors as soon as possible, the storm that the rumors can cause is inversely proportional to the company's credibility.

However, even if you use this ordinary method well, you can get a great harvest. For example, when you compete with a certain company or group to reach the critical moment, once the other party is shaken, even a small gap may completely defeat the other party.

The most famous case known to ordinary people is that the Bethschilds bet on the Battle of Waterloo, fabricating news of the Duke of Wellington's defeat and mastering the actions of the Bank of England.

Of course, Eisner is not as good as Rothschild a hundred years ago, and now he has more channels for obtaining information and has richer corresponding means. If he wants to achieve such huge results, means, vision, ability and opportunity are indispensable.

But the old fox is an old fox after all. Although Claude is also very outstanding, his experience is still a little worse. Even though he considers all aspects, the other party still takes advantage of the loopholes.

The next situation may be more difficult, and they took the lead.Claude said on the phone.

It doesn't matter, it's all right to you, everything is handled by you.

Adrian didn't take it seriously, he just reminded: But, Crow, don't forget that this year's goal is not just ABC.

I know, Marvel Comics.Claude laughed, don't worry, I'll handle it.

These things were always handed over to Claude. Adrian, who was a man of two lives, had enough self-knowledge, so how could he change his mind for this problem?

In fact, Disney's big strife is also expected. Thinking about it, they would rather lose for ten years than sell, so they know the importance of ABC.

So it doesn't matter if you try your best and fail in the end. Unfortunately, it's not very bad. Anyway, there are backup plans and there are still many opportunities in the future, so Adrian quickly shifted his energy to shooting.

The footage currently being filmed is Wallace confronting the army of long-legged Edward in an open area. In the absence of cavalry, the poorly equipped uprising army cracked the opponent's charge with a spear in a sharpened thick wooden stick and thus won.

The crew used almost a hundred horses to shoot this scene. Even though Adrian's dispatch had been tempered when he was making the movie before, he was still busy.

Although there is a horse trainer helping, it is not easy to use these nearly a hundred horses to create a charge of thousands of cavalrymen, and there are also scenes of war horses breaking their stomachs and falling to the ground with pointed sticks.

Of course, these cannot be done with real horses. The people from the Animal Protection Association are on the crew, so they have to use props to edit them later, which is quite troublesome.

OK, guys, let's do it again and remember what I just said.

Adrian waved his hand and shouted loudly, although these shots had been coming dozens of times, there was no look of anxiety on his face.

Since I chose this movie, I was mentally prepared to face difficulties, and I have always been Adrian's weakness in scheduling big scenes, so I just took this opportunity to exercise.

Please wait, Mr. Adrian, maybe we should talk about that issue again.

A middle-aged man, who was almost fifty years old, walked over and said politely, wearing formal clothes and always wearing a wide-brimmed hat, giving people a sense of old-fashionedness.

Oh, Mr. Wood, any advice?

Adrian smiled bitterly in his heart, but he still looked serious on the surface. The only person who could make him feel headache during this period was this person, and he invited this person.

Mr. Wood Brody is a contact with the Animal Conservation Society and is responsible for checking whether the crew abused horses during filming.

Of course, the Animal Protection Association would not know if any film crew abused animals during filming, unless someone reported it, but Adrian remembered that the original Brave Heart was released because the war was so realistic and tragic that the Animal Protection Association thought that the horses were really killed in this way during filming, and protested to the film company. It was not until the crew took out the post-production images that they believed that only props died.

Therefore, in order to prevent this situation from happening, Adrian contacted the Animal Protection Association early and asked them to send people to follow up the whole process to prove that the crew did not abuse any horses.

Who knew that the other party sent a stern and serious guy. He usually stood in the crowd with a tense face and was always cold and did not have much contact with everyone. He was like a piece of wood, but it complemented his name.

But once he feels that what he does will cause harm to the horse even if it is very mild, he will continue to criticize it. Unless Adrian agrees, he will never stop.

Since Mr. Adrian invited us to follow up and supervise the whole process, he naturally does not want any accidents in these horses, so I must also fulfill my responsibilities.

Brody once said this very seriously, so even if Adrian was dissatisfied, he would not be able to attack in front of him, and he could only agree with it every time.

OK, I get it, I will let them pay attention.

After Brody finished nagging, Adrian quickly continued, and then gave a wink at the director assistant beside him. The other party was stunned for a moment and then understood and greeted the others to prepare to start.

In fact, Brody is a little nitpicky, which is normal. Many people love animals better than similar people and do many incredible things, which is something that only humans can do.

But Brody is not exactly that person. Adrian always has his left ear and right ear to him, so he will continue shooting after changing the way he will change his approach.

Brody knew this, but he never talked about those topics once, and then continued to play Mutou after he said that. From this point of view, he was not an ignorant person.

Scene 113, Act 78, prepare!With the sound of the field notes, the baffle hit.

These lenses are very impactful when viewed from the screen, but they appear to be loose in actual shooting. This is the technique of montage and this is the charm of the movie.

Soon, a British media appeared in the media. Miracle director Adrian made a new movie based on the theme of the Medieval War in Britain. This news was accompanied by several blurry photos.

Although the protection work on the set has been done well, it is difficult to keep things clear in such a big scene, and there are a lot more reporters staying nearby than before, because the list of nominations for the 67th Oscars has been released.

Without any suspense, "Forrest Gump" won 13 nominations, which is no different from Adrian's memory. The four nominations are the most important: Best Movie, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor.

For a moment, Tom Hanks was in the limelight. With the reputation and praise he won by this movie, he is very likely to win the Best Actor Little Golden Man!

Although Spencer Qusai had won the Best Actor before him, it was in the 1930s, and the Oscar selection mechanism was far less fair than it is now. Although Spencer Qusai was also an excellent actor, the gold man at that time was at least half the gold content was lower than now.

According to the current selection criteria of the School of Film Arts and Sciences, it is almost impossible to win an award again, but Hanks has a great chance of creating a record this time. The role of Forrest Gump is really in line with mainstream values, so it is conceivable what kind of attention he will receive.

However, in the circle, Hanks is not the one who is most concerned. All well-informed people know who pushed Hanks down. If "Philadelphia Story" and "Forrest Gump" are replaced, Hanks will definitely not be able to win again.

Hanks himself knew this, so as soon as the nomination list was announced, he called the trans-ocean phone to thank Adrian. He was too excited and excited but forgot that the jet lag was not yet sleeping.

In short, people in the circle, especially the actors, have focused their attention on Adrian. Although the argument that Hanks may have won the most successor after "Forrest Gump" received unprecedented praise, the nomination list still makes people sigh after it was announced: Director Miracle is worthy of being Director Miracle.

Think about what he has done in the past few years. Not to mention the youngest Palme d’Or, the chance of becoming the youngest Oscar best director this year is not much different from the chance of Hanks winning the Best Actor for the rest of the year. The few big-selling movies last year alone are enough for the actors to compete for his favor, not to mention the honor they have dreamed of.

The thoughts of senior executives of various film companies are even more complicated. Since Adrian entered this circle, Bosworth Film has produced too many excellent movies. The money earned by eight movies last year for Bosworth is something other companies of the same level cannot make in two years.

Even the seven major film companies can't compare with the money they earn from movies.

If it were another company, it might have been a joint force and would have been stumbled or divided up. But Adrian knew how to share. Major film companies have gained a lot of benefits from him, and Universal and Fox have the best relationship with him.

In addition, Bosworth grew very fast in his hands. After becoming a subsidiary of AC Media, AC Media acquired TBS, he had to think about it carefully.

He can make money and win awards. He has taken up both ends, and he has taken a few excellent ideas at one time. God is so nice to him.

Warner Pictures CEO Robert Cana said to his subordinates half sighed and half teased while resting.

Michael Eisner also sighed that if he had a sharper vision at the beginning, he would not have any troubles to pull him into Disney even if he had divided the shares, but would have also added a lot of benefits to Disney.

In contrast, the three DreamWorks' Big Three are happy to see this situation. They are challengers to the existing order and are basically allies with Adrian. Spielberg also called the first to congratulate him.

As for the other two companies, they were naturally excited, especially Miramax. Although it was not a pleasant thing to have a strong boss, judging from Adrian's performance, as long as he satisfies his other things in film production, the Weinstein brothers would be relieved.

Robert Shay had to think more about it, after all, he still held most of the rights to the new line, but that didn't mean he would refuse Adrian's concept.

Although this is true for people in the circle, Hanks still receives more attention than he does in the mass media.

Even Adrian appeared frequently in the newspapers, and there were constant news that he might become the youngest best director at the Oscar. His previous achievements were also brought out by reporters and talked about it over and over again, but the director's status in the public's hearts is not as good as an actor, not to mention that Hanks may win the Best Actor for the rest of the year.

Adrian didn't mind at all. This was the situation he wanted to see. He said before that one foot in the front and the other foot behind the scenes is the best state. As long as the actors understand it in their hearts, Bosworth Films' Oscar nomination has more than 13 nominated "Forrest Gump".

"Little Woman" won three nominations. In addition to Best Art Director and Best Clothing, Winona barely won the Nomination for Best Actress, but it also stopped there. It is almost impossible to go further. Age is her biggest shackle. After all, nominations rely more on strength and more on luck.

"Night Visit to the Vampire" also received three nominations, including Best Art Director and Best Soundtrack, Kirsten got the nomination for Best Supporting Actress as he wished.

When Adrian called to congratulate him immediately, the little fairy seemed particularly excited and excited. Of course, he had to tempt him verbally.

Oh, I really miss you, Ed, especially... your fingers, the intoxicating feeling of being in heaven is really unforgettable, I don't know when I will taste it again.

The little fairy said so explicitly after taking the phone to a place where no one was. Her coquettish tone was a little sweet, which was really tempting.

In contrast, Tom Cruise is undoubtedly much more miserable. He originally planned to compete for the Oscar again with the role of Leicester, but he did not even get the nomination. According to rumors, he was very angry about it.

But this is nothing. Even if he is nominated, he is not Hanks' opponent. He is also named Tom. It's a huge difference.

In short, the release of the Oscar nomination list put him in front of the public again. How could the British tabloids let him go? As for the potential filming on the set, the tabloids wished someone to sue them. Besides, the photos are blurry and cannot harm the interests of many film companies.

As for those big newspapers, you can know from their reprint without hesitation that why they look down on tabloids but always turn a blind eye to this behavior. At worst, they just need to take down the photos after receiving the notice, but they have attracted attention anyway.

With the Oscar nomination and these blurry photos, the British began to discuss the new movies of Miracle Director. With the lessons learned from the last "Howard Manor", they dare not laugh at them at will, but malicious remarks are still indispensable.

When the Oscar nomination list was released, Director Miracle was filming his new movie on the Scottish Highlands. I don’t know if he thought he was sure to win or didn’t want to pay attention to it. After all, he was going to make a medieval war movie, and he had almost never failed.

A film critic wrote in his own column that this paragraph is mixed with articles commenting on this year's Oscar, which shows its purpose, not to mention the hints between the lines.

After this news was reprinted by the American media, the American reaction was relatively dull. First, Adrian did too many surprising things. Besides, with "Howard Manor" in front of him, there is no need to question his production level at all. Second, the Oscar nomination list has just been released, which is a hot topic.

However, the American media still sent a lot of journalists to Scotland. After all, the new movie directed by Miracle, which was nominated again and is highly likely to win an award, is still very newsworthy.

As a result, the pressure on the crew increased again. Although Adrian was not angry in the previous photo incident, he also expressed that he did not want to see similar situations again.

Fortunately, he was considerate of everyone. After the filming of the most intense war scene, he immediately announced that he would shoot indoor scenes first, and the other battles would be temporarily postponed.

This trick has curbed the reporters very well. Although they are not allowed to protest, the crew said through a spokesperson that the plot should be kept confidential, so they will not accept interviews for the time being.

In desperation, they set their minds on Adrian. You always have a rest, right?

We are here, are we still afraid that we can't catch your whereabouts?!

Unfortunately, their tricks were basically understood by Adrian, and this is not ten years later, so they still do whatever they should do, for example
