Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

Chapter 982 History must be true

For Atari and Activision, two companies on the verge of bankruptcy, it is really not difficult to talk to them about acquisitions.

Like Activision, Qiao Feng asked people to contact him, and the other party had almost no consideration, indicating that he was willing to be acquired, and he could talk about it, and he could talk about it right away.

It is estimated that the other party feels that it is rare to meet a wrongdoer and can't let him go.

Atari is a little troublesome, because Atari is owned by Warner, the management of Atari cannot decide whether to sell.

However, it is really a small trouble.

Because Warner has long been dissatisfied with Atari, the money-losing goods, so when they heard that someone was going to buy, Warner also immediately expressed their opinions and talked casually.

Really, it doesn't even mean to pretend not to be for sale.

I didn't even think about the meaning of posing for the sky.

Because such a money-losing goods Warner knows that they can't sell much money.

Although I don’t know what kind of idiots will buy Atari, which is obviously sluggish and stinking, it has no future, but Warner understands that such idiots are not easy to come across. There may be no such shop after passing this village.

If you want to sell in the future, let alone find someone, just find someone, I am afraid it will not sell at the current price.

It's better to take advantage of the fact that someone wants it now, and Atari still has some capital. How much money can be sold, and the funds are returned as soon as possible.

When it comes to acquisitions, Qiao Feng has a dedicated negotiating team and a team of lawyers, and he only needs to make the final decision.

Such a small acquisition does not require Qiao Feng to worry about it. For him, the acquisition is not as important as hosting a few more banquets for Judou's Oscar nomination.

During the award season, Hollywood banquets, big and small, never stop.

Because both North American film festivals and guild awards will be concentrated in this awards season.

Therefore, it is held under various titles, but it is actually for public relations, and banquets that impact awards are held all the time.

In Hong Kong, even if this kind of public relations exists, it will not be carried out on the surface.

But in Hollywood, awards PR is a clear rule.

You have public relations, maybe you still can't get nominations or awards.

But if you don't PR, there is no hope at all.

Zhang Yimou and Gong Li had limited public relations for the Oscar nomination. Although they contacted some people, they were better than nothing.

In the end, it was Qiao Feng's side that was decisive.

Qiao Feng hired the most professional public relations company to cooperate with the film screening to be responsible for Judou's Oscar-nominated public relations.

As the owner of MGM, Feng Qiao also held many banquets, inviting stars, directors, and screenwriters who have never collaborated with them, to create momentum and public relations for Judou.

"Hi, Joe."

"Steven."

Qiao Feng greeted Spielberg with a smile while holding a wine glass.

This is a banquet for Judou at the Hilton Hotel.

As soon as Qiao Feng finished talking with Schwarzenegger, Spielberg walked over there.

"Joe, I watched the videotape you sent me. You discovered a very good movie. Zhang is a very good director. His lens language is amazing." Spielberg and Joe Feng Pan talked.

"Yes, Judou is very good, so Steven, I hope you can help with the nomination." Qiao Feng said straightforwardly.

Spielberg knew the nature of the banquet tonight when he received the invitation. Because such banquets have been held many times before, he has heard acquaintances talk about it.

And for Spielberg’s request just to help get the nomination is not a big deal, let alone help in the nomination, even Spielberg did not skimp on his own one in the best foreign language film award voting. ticket.

Because that would not only make Qiao Feng owe himself a favor, but more importantly, Spielberg and Qiao Feng still cooperate.

"No problem, Joe." Spielberg readily agreed, and then turned to the most important collaboration: "Joe, I plan to start preparing for the Jinling Thirteen Hairpins."

"Steven, do you finally have time?" Qiao Feng was very surprised when he heard this.

Spielberg nodded: "For such a story that I am not very familiar with, I need more time to prepare."

The Jinling Thirteen Hairpins and Schindler’s list are different. As a Jew, Spielberg has a personal experience and understanding of the tragedy that happened to Jews.

But for the various atrocities committed by the Japanese invaders in China, even if it was the solar empire with the same background, Spielberg still dare not say that he could experience it.

Of course, it’s not impossible to shoot blindly. At most, it’s a bad shot.

However, Spielberg knew that he could tolerate bad names, and Qiao Feng couldn't accept that he badly shot this story.

What he can do is to start preparing early and start participating in the script stage.

Script script, the script of a script.

Spielberg deeply believes that a good script is the soul of a movie, and only a good script can make a good movie.

If it’s a bad script, no matter how good a director makes it, it won’t be a delicious meal.

"For the script, what are your considerations for Steven?" Qiao Feng asked.

Qiao Feng naturally also knows the importance of the script. However, the script writing of Jinling Thirteen Hairpins has many problems. Either he feels that the portrayal of war is not true enough, or he feels that the portrayal of human nature is not deep enough.

Anyway, the screenwriter invited has released more than a dozen versions and none of the scripts has come out to his satisfaction.

Now that Spielberg says he needs more preparations, Qiao Feng wants to hear his thoughts.

After all, Spielberg and ordinary Hollywood can only act as executive directors and cannot shoot their own styles. Directors with their own ideas are different.

Spielberg is a top director who has full editing rights and can make films according to his own ideas.

It can be said that Spielberg’s movies are all he wants to make. They all have his own ideas and thoughts in it.

It is not like a general director, who is just an embodiment of a puppet, who can only make a film according to others' ideas step by step, without his own ideas, connotations, and styles.

"I don't have any special thoughts. I think so. There is a real historical background in the shooting. If you don't just want to make a commercial film, then the truth is necessary, at least the truth is to account for a large proportion. We can play the story by ourselves, but the inner part must be true.” Spielberg obviously thought about it a long time ago, so he said directly.

"Can you tell me more specifically?" Qiao Feng asked.

"As for the story you told Joe, I think the other version you told me later is better, that is, thirteen prostitutes instead of female students to sing poetry. They cannot be happy, but must be entangled. They cannot be voluntary. Yes, at least not all. Otherwise it won’t be true..."
