"Zizzi".

"I know, I know, Lan Li personally also very much hopes to attend, but now all the itinerary must be temporarily postponed, Christopher's work is the first priority, and he must devote himself to the shooting of this work."

"Zizzi."

"Ha, I also feel a little puzzled. The past few years seem to be the case. But...what can I say? Such accidents are always prone to accidents by coincidence. Hollywood lasts three hundred and sixty-five days a year. Busy."

"Zizzi."

"Not sure. I can only answer like this now. I will try my best to make arrangements. I look forward to Renly appearing on the red carpet of the Hilton Hotel. I also look forward to Renly appearing in the valley of Park City. But now , My hands are tied, and I have no way to determine any itinerary. I promise, I will talk to Christopher to see."

"Zizzi."

"Of course! Of course! You don't need to wait for my call, I will call as soon as possible. Huh, to be honest, I'm looking forward to it as much as you are. That's it for now, and I'll talk about it next time!"

The first call finally ended, and Andy Rogers immediately picked up the second call. There was no breathing space between the two calls, but it was still obvious that Andy’s shoulders were slightly relaxed. For a while, the whole person slumped on the boss chair, and the beer belly suddenly became more and more obvious.

"Sorry... Lan Li, I'm sorry." Before Lan Li's call was about to turn to voicemail, Andy answered the call in time. "I'm really sorry. I was talking with Theo-Kingma just now. He is a person who refuses to compromise easily, and the phone cannot be hung up at all."

Theo Kimma is the current president of the Hollywood Foreign Correspondents Association, and they host the annual Golden Globe Awards.

"It shouldn't be strange, shouldn't it? Otherwise, how could he become the chairman of the association?" However, Lan Li was not irritable, and calmly teased.

Andy shrugged, "But I strongly doubt that he can be re-elected."

"It's going to change again?" Lan Li was slightly surprised, "If I remember correctly, didn't he just come up last year?"

"Yes, but the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association changes every two years." Andy explained, "In recent years, the overall momentum and situation of the Golden Globes have always been in a state of confusion, not only in terms of ratings, but also performances. The guests, media propaganda, Internet hot spots, etc. all failed to restore the momentum of decline, and then the members of the association always felt that changing a chairman can solve the problem."

"Ha. They can't be blamed. The democratic election system is such a system. But I am more curious that such internal struggles in the association have brought more influence, right?" Lan Li felt that the matter itself was very Interesting, even more interesting than the entertainment effect of the Golden Globes.

Andy nodded and affirmed, "Indeed. They are not paying attention to business at all now, internal struggles have already occupied all their energy, and then every year the award ceremony will stimulate the audience by creating gimmicks and tricks, but for two years An election change will be turbulent again, overthrowing everything before."

Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth, but he was not surprised at all. Not only the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, but other major award ceremonies or film festivals are also facing the same situation more or less-for example, the Venice Film Festival is a typical representative. , This is the inevitable trend of Vanity Fair.

However, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is more special. They are nominally a non-profit organization and accept gifts and donations every year, but in fact, their members are not practitioners in the press. Members only need to publish four articles per year. Remuneration articles are fine.

Many members were journalists or editors or film critics before joining the association, but after joining the association they changed jobs to become photographers, "because photographers are more profitable." But more members are idlers who receive pensions and do not rely on news. For dinner, as for the requirements for four articles each year, they only occasionally write articles for small overseas publishers who are not well-known, and they can meet the requirements.

The current Hollywood Foreign Press Association members are very diverse, including education, real estate, and automobile industries.

So, how does the Hollywood Foreign Press Association work? This is a very large, very complicated and very complicated system. To summarize it in relatively simple and straightforward words: the college public relations during the award season.

The fixed members of the entire association remain at around ninety people. They are recommended to join the association and have one-vote veto power. This also makes the position of all members relatively stable, which is almost equivalent to a lifetime system; but these ninety members have a large number of members. The network of people, their profession itself is similar to that of lobbyists in Washington, wandering between major associations, companies, parties, and gatherings, making full use of the interest network of the awards season to mediate among them.

Why can the Golden Globe Award be called the "Oscar vane"? That's because these ninety members know the inside information of the members of the Hollywood Academy. They can often make judgments and decisions based on the direction of the wind in advance.

In addition, why are the Golden Globes always infamous, and the title of "Entertainment to Death" is also like a shadow? That's because during the 1970s and 1980s, members were willing to accept material favors to influence the trend of the awards-for example, hold a party in Las Vegas, invite some members to attend, and then win one Golden Globe trophy.

Although this trend has now disappeared, and simple and crude black-box operations are no longer effective; but the members of the association can still walk freely in the major parties of the award season, which affects the direction of the Oscar trophy.

Regarding the ins and outs of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the Golden Globe Awards, even if it takes a whole book, it is impossible to tell it, but it is certain that the far-reaching influence and the ability to distribute benefits during the award season are the survival of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. As an important weight, naturally, internal power struggles have become more intense.

Nevertheless, the professional critics of the "Hollywood Reporter" once expressed this view, "Although the group of judges for the Golden Globes are basically all idiots, they are always better than the group of self-righteous and superior guys at the Oscars. Have taste."

Not to mention what the distribution of power in Hollywood means behind this view, but it can be seen from the side that the Golden Globe's "entertainment first" style has never changed. As for the grievances between the Golden Globes and the Oscars, that is another story.

"It's the same this year. Do you know why Theo called me?" Andy relaxed, and even chatted with Lan Li.

Lan Li did not speak.

Andy himself burst into laughter, "I know I know that you are not interested, but can't you also cooperate? Theo made a special call to invite you to attend this year's Golden Globe Awards."

This is Theo Jinma's strategy.

As the top and most popular actor in the world today, Lan Li has been absent from the Golden Globe Awards for two consecutive years; more importantly, there is still no Golden Globe trophy in the award record of Lan Li. It seemed like a fantasy—so much so that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association was a little embarrassed, because Lan Li seemed to have never cared about it.

If Theo can invite Ren Li to return to the Golden Globes stage-when Ren Li appeared to the public in the first year, he attended the Golden Globe Awards, and that would be the only time. Then, Theo There will be more confidence in the re-election in June next year.

But the timing of this year is really delicate.

Paul just had an accident and escaped from the dead; the filming of "Interstellar Crossing" is also in full swing. From all angles, Ren Li did not seem to be in the mood to attend the Golden Globes.

Therefore, Theo used Andy to come and knock on the side, and began to pave the way for the awards ceremony early.

"My attendance is not a panacea to save ratings. I am not Woody Allen. No audience will turn the stage to watch the Golden Globes just because I appear in the camera for a few seconds." Lan Li still maintained clarity. The problem of mind, ratings and topicality is mainly the inevitable after the birth of network streaming media. The entire TV field is being challenged, and naturally it is not a problem that can be solved by a blue gift.

Andy chuckled lightly, "He doesn't need you to solve the problem, he only needs a little topical effect to show his great achievements."

Lan Li lightly jawed, "It seems that I am also a Trophy now."

"Trophy-ife", which can be translated as "trophie wife", but it used to mean "vase wife"; at the same time, it also means the trophy itself. Lan Li uses such a metaphor here, and the meaning of double ridicule couldn't be more obvious.

"Now Theo is worried. You are at the Sundance but absent from the Golden Globes just like the year before. This is an unacceptable situation for them." Andy added.

"Ha." Lan Li chuckled lightly, "Did you tell him that I have not decided to attend Sundance?"

"Of course, I have said so. But there are rumors in the industry that the Coen brothers have issued an invitation, and you are definitely willing to give them face." Andy said bluntly.

From "anti-cancer me" to "transcendence", from Jack Gyllenhaal to Natalie Portman, from Warner Bros. to Universal Pictures, to Paul Walker this time, Lan Li's relationship with friends It’s no secret how to deal with it~www.novelhall.com~Everyone can feel it. Lanly is a person who pays great attention to friendship.

Of course, it is not an easy task to become a friend of Lanli. The cold and arrogant aura of hereditary aristocracy is enough to discourage countless people; not to mention, how many people can those who approach Lanli with their goals Success? This also makes Lan Li's friendship more precious.

Lan Li shrugged, "If I refuse, I believe Joel and Ethan can understand."

"But the question is, will you refuse?" Andy asked again.
