Happy New Year, congratulations on making a fortune!

As night fell, Steven Spielberg sent a middle-aged man out of the doorstep. The middle-aged man turned around and said, "Steven, can you consider my suggestions?"

Seeing that Spielberg didn't speak, the man said again, "Why did "Save Private Ryan" lose the best film Little Golden Man? Why did "Shakespeare in Love" reach the top? Have you forgotten all of you? They once attacked you and your movies so much, don't you remember?"

How could those things be forgotten? Steven Spielberg said slowly, "Eyman, I will think about it seriously."

"Murphy..." The man deliberately emphasized the tone of the name behind, "And Miss Gal Gadot, I have always wanted to invite you to visit."

Spielberg said politely, "I also want to talk to Murphy, he is the future of Hollywood."

Although Murphy Stanton is not a Jew, he has a Jewish girlfriend. The two have been dating for many years and are said to be engaged.

When he sent off the guests and returned home, Steven Spielberg sat on the chair and couldn't help but remember the past many years ago. At that time, DreamWorks was full of energy. The box office and reputation of "Save Private Ryan" both exploded. The whole world believed that he would win the Best Director and Best Film at the same time. But at the critical moment of the voting, a group of British veterans first stood up to question the film, and then all kinds of negative news appeared in the media one after another. Finally, "Shakespeare in Love" snatched the Best Film Little Golden Man from him, beyond everyone's expectations.

Although this is now recognized as the biggest joke of the Oscar in the past thirty years, it is a true fact that the Weinstein brothers have posed with him.

These things had been thrown aside, but after someone said that, he began to think about them again.

In the past year, he has not been able to do anything. The filming of "War Horse" has not yet been completed due to the inexplicable protests of the animal protection organization, which has also made him lose the qualification to hit the Oscars.

Who should I vote for in my hands and those around me? Spielberg quickly made a decision, and he would not vote for the Weinstein brothers no matter what.

At the same time, in the Martin Scorsese residence in Manhattan, New York, Old Martin also received a guest from AA.

Although he has transferred to other brokerage companies, Martin Scorsese has been under AA for many years and is acquainted with many senior executives of AA.

The two had been chatting for a while, and Martin Scorsese held his glasses and said, "I was shooting a gangster film, which was full of all kinds of calculations, but I don't like others to plot against me the most. The Weinstein brothers have been saying a few years ago that I only shot a video to win the Oscars. I remember this very clearly."

He waved his hand, "You go back, I have my own decision on how to vote!"

Why can the Weinstein brothers only attack him, but he can't attack them? Martin Scorsese sent the person away, took out the phone book and started dialing.

Almost all the people in the circle who are in love with him have received calls from him.

The long dark night gradually dissipated, and the sun climbed into the sky. Just after 8 o'clock in the morning, Ang Lee came to the post-production studio of 20th Century Fox and was preparing to start a new day of work. Recently, he has been busy with the post-production of "The Fantasy Drift of Pi", and basically comes to the Fox Building on time every day.

There was still some time before work began, and the others had not arrived yet. Ang Lee made a cup of coffee for himself. While adding sugar and milk, someone suddenly pushed the door and walked in.

"Hi, An."

The one who came in was Ang Lee's agent in the United States, also affiliated with aa.

Ang Lee looked at his agent and asked curiously, "Why are you here?"

"I have something to do with you." The agent didn't politely, pulled over the chair and sat opposite Ang Lee, asking, "Have you voted for your Oscars?"

"I have been busy with post-production these days," Ang Lee shook his head, "not yet."

The agent asked again, "Which video do you want to vote for for several important awards?"

Ang Lee smiled casually, "I haven't considered this yet."

He was very busy with work and didn't watch much of this awards season video. He planned to choose a few of them and mail the ballots.

"The biggest hit now is Murphy Stanton's "Diego Ross". "The agent is of course here for purpose," and "and the new film "Artist" produced by the Weinstein brothers."

"Brother Weinstein?" The sharpness in Ang Lee's eyes flashed.

"That's right." The agent emphasized, "It was the two bastards who used disgusting words to attack you and made Brokeback Mountain lose the best video!"

Ang Lee has a relatively calm personality. He sighed but said nothing.

The agent also said, "The Fantasy Drift of Pi has taken years of hard work. The company will focus on promoting this film at next year's Oscars. Cara Fais of Twentieth Century Fox also assured me that I will take out enough resources to use this film to win the awards in the next awards season."

After so many years of ups and downs, Ang Lee naturally knew that there was no free lunch in the world and asked, "What do I need to do?"

"You are very influential among the many Chinese and Asians in the circle." The agent said bluntly, "to affect their academy members as much as possible."

The agent did not specify which film to vote for, but the prompts such as Twentieth Century Fox and AA are already very clear. Ang Lee knew that it must be Murphy Stanton's "Diego Ross".

As a director who has won the Oscar for Best Director Xiao Jinren, Ang Lee has his own pride. If it were normal, he might refuse, but when he thought of the best film Xiao Jinren and the behind-the-scenes operations of the Weinstein brothers, he couldn't help feeling unhappy.

Sometimes, the Weinstein brothers bully too many people!

The rabbit will bite people if it is anxious, not to mention that Ang Lee is not a rabbit.

Ang Lee didn't speak, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. When he put the coffee cup down, he nodded his head gently.

The sun in Los Angeles in February is not so fierce, especially the morning sun is softer, which is very suitable for outdoor activities. In a golf club in Malibu, Kara Fis moved the hat on his head and gently swung the push rod. The small white ball drew an arc on the sloped grass and rolled into the hole ten feet away.

"nice shot!"

A middle-aged man cheered from behind, "I didn't expect Kara to be so good at your football skills."

Kara Fis took off his hat and handed the club to the caddie next to him. He turned around and walked back, saying, "I just studied for a while recently, but I haven't forgotten it yet."

"Bob..." She greeted the middle-aged man, "Go and have a rest."

"OK."

The middle-aged man accompanied Kara Fis and walked under a large sun umbrella nearby.

Carla Fis waved his hand to the back, and a few caddies stopped from afar and stopped coming.

"Disney is the most glorious now." Kara Fesla sat down through the chair and said to the middle-aged man, "Bob, everyone envies you, the CEO of Walt Disney."

"Haha..." Robert Egg smiled, pulled over another chair next to the round table, sat opposite Carra Fies, and said half-truely, "How about you jumping from Twentieth Century Fox to Disney, come and help me?"

Kara Fis shook his head, "You have to prepare a large liquidated damages for me, I can't afford it myself."

Speaking of this, she suddenly changed the subject, "Bob, is Miramax only one empty shell left now?"

"Um……"

It's no secret, Robert Eiger sighed, "When the Weinstein brothers left, they took almost everything Miramax could take away. Now I'm very worried about how to deal with this company."

It would be wonderful if Twentieth Century Fox could be the takeover.

"The Weinstein brothers set up Disneyland," Cara Fais said very directly, "Don't Disney want to return it?"

Robert Eiger looked up at Carla Fais, but did not answer her words.

Carla Fais said nothing, "I met with people from Universal Pictures last night. They said something, and I agree. The Weinstein brothers have been stirring up trouble at the Oscars for too long, and they have snatched too many Oscar-based gold men from our six major companies. These small gold men represent profits!"

Both of them are insiders, so they naturally understand the market effect of Oscars.

"Oscars are free to compete." Robert Eiger said casually.

"Don't you want to change this situation?" Cara Fais said seriously. "You can't let the Weinstein brothers control the Oscars for a long time and steal our interests?"

She added, "It's always hard to stick to good things, but bad things always become habits. Should we make this situation an Oscar habit?"

Robert Eiger was silent and thought.

Perhaps the Weinstein brothers themselves did not notice it, but Murphy knew very well that in the past Oscar competition, the Weinstein brothers had used too many unsightly methods. In the past, "Artist" could be said to be the final glory of the Weinstein brothers in the Oscars. Many people, including the Oscar judges, could no longer tolerate their reckless behavior on the Oscars, which directly led to a series of award-winning videos that continued to fail at the Oscar ceremony.

At that time, whether there was a central connection was not something that he, who lived across the Pacific, could understand, but now that AA and Twentieth Century Fox operated, it would always dispel some of the judges' voting plans.
Chapter completed!
