Chapter 369: "Geisha" scolding battle, Yang Xiaomi changes job
Zhang Chen checked online in the past two days, and Fan Xiaopang was indeed hacked badly.
Zhang Ziyi was nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Globe Awards for "Memoirs of a Geisha". The Golden Globe Awards have always been considered a bellwether for the Oscars. Many people speculate that Zhang Ziyi is likely to win the Oscar statuette. No two at a time.
Currently, the most popular female star in China is Zhang Ziyi, bar none.
Even though it is during the Chinese New Year, her popularity is not low at all, and the level of discussion is second only to the Spring Festival Gala.
Fan Xiaopang, who is often compared with Zhang Ziyi, has become the best target. Many media are pulling Zhang Ziyi while stepping on Fan Xiaopang. This has become politically correct in the entertainment industry.
The Oscars are still called the Olympics. Being able to win the statuette is regarded as a very high honor.
Zhang Ziyi’s fans feel honored to be able to participate in the film competition for the Oscar.
A lot of scandalous material was uncovered about Fan Binbin, and Zhang Chen was also exposed. Who asked him to post a blog criticizing "Memoirs of a Geisha" a few years ago.
Zhang Chen actually didn't say anything, he just predicted that "Geisha" would definitely not win a heavyweight award at the Oscars.
The reason is simple: Spielberg has another film in the running - "Munich."
"Munich" is produced by DreamWorks and directed by Spielberg himself.
"Memoirs of a Geisha" was produced by Columbia, and Spielberg was only the producer.
If "Geisha" wants to win an award, it relies on Spielberg.
From Spielberg's own point of view, he is definitely more inclined to his own movies.
So Zhang Chen felt that "Memoirs of a Geisha" was useless.
Zhang Chen’s analysis was well-founded, but it undoubtedly offended Zhang Ziyi’s fans.
In this day and age, no matter who you are, there are always a few idiot fans.
Then, the Golden Globe Award for "Geisha" was nominated for Best Actress, which was considered a slap in the face to Zhang Chen's prediction.
Zhang Chen was speechless and had no choice but to continue posting a blog:
Please, those who scold me without thinking, please understand clearly. What I am saying is that "Geisha" will definitely not win a heavyweight award at the Oscars. Oscar, okay, not the Golden Globe.
If you want to criticize, at least wait until the Oscars announces the shortlist before criticizing. This will at least show that you have some intelligence.
Also, let me emphasize again that the so-called heavyweight awards refer to the best actor and actress, best director, best film and so on.
Zhang Ziyi's fans immediately retorted: "But the Golden Globe Awards have always been considered the weathervane of the Oscars."
Zhang Chen was not to be outdone: "But my son can never be my boss."< br>
Zhang Ziyi's fans met Zhang Chen: "What if "Geisha" got it?"
Zhang Chen also said hard: "Then I will live broadcast eating, but if I don't get it, then it will be you who live broadcasting eating, or you Idol’s live broadcast of eating sex? If you dare to challenge, we will sign a contract~”
After doing this, the fan club suddenly died down. No one dared to challenge, and no one dared to challenge on behalf of their idol.
Then, on January 31, the nomination list for the 78th Oscars was announced.
"Memoirs of a Geisha" was nominated for Best Score, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Effects, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Costume Design...
It was really a slap in the face, not a single nomination for the heavyweight award.
Zhang Chen’s prediction came true, he wasn’t even nominated, and he still got a shitty gold medal.
Zhang Chen did not forget to make up for it: "There are quite a few nominations for awards, but who cares about these awards."
Fans of "Memoirs of a Geisha" broke the defense, and netizens took advantage of it. Beating my chest, I almost watched the live broadcast of Chixiang, Zhang Ziyi fan meeting, why don't you be tougher.
Zhang Chen actually wanted to ridicule: "The nomination list includes "Brokeback Mountain" and "Memoirs of a Geisha," but there is no "The Promise." Poet Chen, what do you think?"
But considering that he had promised Mr. Han, he finally kept his mouth shut.
Zhang Chen's prediction came true. Somehow, his prediction that "Brokeback Mountain" would win the Best Picture at the Venice Film Festival was also leaked.
Actually, this thing cannot be hidden at all. There were many Hong Kong directors present that day.
Suddenly, Zhang Chen became the ‘Prophecy Emperor’.
His prediction for the best film in Venice has come true, as has the Oscar nomination. Many netizens left messages asking him to predict this year's Oscars.
Zhang Chen simply pretended to be a genius and said on his blog that "Brokeback Mountain" will definitely be the biggest winner at this year's Oscars, at least for Best Director.
Netizens were excited now. Unexpectedly, Zhang Chen immediately served the second melon just after finishing the previous melon.
We only have to wait until the Oscar winners list is announced in March to know whether Zhang Chen is really the prophet.
……
Early February
Zhang Chen got up early, had breakfast at around five o'clock, and then prepared to drive back to Beijing.
I’m really afraid that I won’t be able to leave if I get later.
Since the third grade of junior high school, various people have been coming to my door, most of whom I don’t know.
There are railway leaders, road bureau leaders, and even government leaders, from the district and the city, who all want to see if Zhang Chen, the number one director in the country, can do anything to benefit the countryside.
This is not bad, and it is obligatory to help my hometown. At most, I can help my hometown while helping them complete a political achievement.
What makes people speechless the most is that there are many unknown people who come to Zhang Chen for no reason and ask Zhang Chen to donate money, all kinds of moral kidnapping.
Shut up, you are such a big director. A movie can easily exceed 100 million, and you can earn at least 50 million.
Can’t you help us with some leakage from your fingers?
For such a person, Zhang Chen would definitely not be able to make a single profit, but he couldn't bear to come here every day, and it was annoying to watch. If you can't afford to offend me, can you still afford to hide?
Zhang Chen is preparing to return to Beijing early.
But this time Zhang’s father and Zhang’s mother will not go together.
A relative’s child is having a wedding in the first month of the year, and Zhang’s father and Zhang’s mother have to attend.
In most places in the coal province, a wedding ceremony is held at the age of twelve. It is not as grand as a wedding, but it is not much different.
This is a human relationship, so Zhang Chen doesn’t have to participate, but Zhang’s father and Zhang’s mother will definitely participate.
The peak of the return journey has not yet reached today, and the highway was easy to travel all the way. Six hours later, Zhang Chen entered the capital city.
At the same time, Yang Xiaomi received a call from Zeng Jia.
"Xiaomi, we have a party tonight, the advertiser has specified that he wants to see you, please accompany him~"
What Zeng Jia said on the phone made Yang Xiaomi frown unconsciously. Zeng Jia frowned, but Zeng Jia on the other side didn't notice at all: "Remember to dress nicely when the time comes. I will drive over to pick you up at 7 o'clock..."
Hearing Zeng Jia's commanding tone, Yang Xiao Mi was even more angry.
What bothers her the most is eating with clients. It's called eating, but it's actually taking advantage. Yang Xiaomi has experienced this several times.
We are artists, not waitresses.
She screamed in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out loud. She could only say tactfully: "Sister Jia, I'm not feeling well today. Can you find someone else..."
Hearing that Yang Xiao Mi declined, but Zeng Jia on the other end immediately changed her tone, coldly Bing said: "You're not famous yet, and you're showing off your temper?"
Yang Xiaomi wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Zeng Jia: "It's okay not to go, but I'm telling you clearly, this It’s what Sister Xiaowan means. You should weigh it yourself~”
The phone was hung up, and Yang Xiaomi on the other end fell silent.
It happened that her mother came over at this time: "Mimi, do you want to come out and eat some fruit?"
Yang Xiaomi could only pretend to smile: "Okay, Mom, I'll just wash my face." Come here~"
After a while, Yang Xiaomi regained her composure and came to the living room. Everyone in her family was there and it was lively.
She looked at her family members who were laughing and laughing, but felt that no one could help her.
Yang's father is a policeman, so he must be more sensitive after all. He noticed his daughter's unhappiness: "Who called just now?"
"Uh, agent."
"What, is something wrong?"
Yang Xiaomi hesitated : "Well, I might have to go out at night."
Father Yang frowned immediately, and he also saw his daughter's displeasure: "What can happen to this New Year's Eve, if you stay here with her If you are not happy, change your agent.”
He has always been opposed to his daughter entering the entertainment industry.
But his daughter is older and has her own ideas, so he can only let her do it.
However, this sentence reminded Yang Xiaomi that at the New Year's Day party, Zhang Chen mentioned it and asked her to transfer her agency contract to Shijiu Culture.
It was just delayed because of the Chinese New Year.
She had Wang Jinghua’s phone number, but didn’t know what to say, so she simply called Chen Xi.
"Xixi..."
Yang Xiaomi told what happened just now, and Chen Xi on the opposite side immediately said: "Don't worry, I'll call Sister Hua now..."
" That’s up to you~”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely help you with this matter. Wait for my news.”
Ten minutes later, Wang Jinghua called and said directly: "Yang Xiaomi? I am Wang Jinghua..."
"Sister Hua~"
"I already know about you, so I just want to ask you, do you have any leverage in their hands..."
"Yes~"
“Okay, tell me everything in detail, the more detailed the better, no If you have anything to hide, since you have chosen to join Shijiu Culture, you must believe that I can help you handle this matter, because I am Wang Jinghua..."
The strong confidence revealed in Wang Jinghua's tone gave Yang Xiaomi is confident that the number one agent in the Mainland will face Li Xiaowan.
It is more likely that Li Xiaowan may not stand up for Zeng Jia, and Zeng Jia is just an ordinary agent in Rong Xindali.
Yang Xiaomi saw hope and was finally willing to tell her all her feelings.
In later generations, Zeng Jia left Rong Xinda without taking anyone with her, except Yang Xiaomi, who was also willing to follow her.
Later, Jiaxing Media was established, and Yang Xiaomi transformed into Ruziniu, opening up territory for Jiaxing Media in various ways. However, Jiaxing Media’s treatment of Yang Xiaomi was very confusing.
Looking for Yang Xiaomi’s scenes and forcibly tying up other artists, otherwise they won’t accept them.
It's almost like killing a goose to retrieve the egg.
In order to keep Reba, he actually gave her Yang Xiaomi’s endorsement, and also deliberately asked his assistant to lose Yang Xiaomi’s passport, causing her to miss the event.
This is already Chi Guoguo’s back thorn.
There are countless behaviors, Jiaxing Media treated Yang Xiaomi like this, Yang Xiaomi carried it to her death, and only terminated the contract at the end. If Zeng Jia had no leverage against Yang Xiaomi, she would not even believe it.
