Chapter 389 A little shock to the film industry (please vote for me!)
Movie exhibition?
In order to cope with the acquisition of LVMH Group, Hermès is not in the mood to hold a film exhibition.
After AMF and the court accepted Hermès’ lawsuit, this acquisition that shocked the fashion circle completely revealed the side of luxury brands fighting each other.
When all the news focus is on this acquisition.
Axel said that some things should be done.
Especially at this point in time, it is necessary to prove to the outside world that Hermès’ development in different fields is not as difficult to deal with the acquisition of LVMH as the outside world speculated.
In a small way, John came back in a hurry and submitted the information about the Hermès film exhibition in the lobby of a high-end hotel in Los Angeles the week after.
Reporters gathered.
[CC parent company announced that it will accept capital injection from Hermès Film Investment Company.]
[All employees of CC expressed their welcome to Hermès.]
[The press conference of independent film company JANUSFILMS confirmed that it has reached a share transfer cooperation with Hermès Film Investment Company]
[Hermès, which is in turmoil, shows strength in the film field Posture]
[Well-known director.]
“We are not acquiring, but cooperating. CC’s contributions to film art over the years and their role in the film industry are what Hermès has always done.
We were pleasantly surprised at how quickly we were able to collaborate. We will also launch a series of cooperation in the future, such as art theaters and excellent film exhibitions.”
At the press conference, as the CEO of Hermès Film Investment Company, Little John spoke eloquently to reporters, But he was extremely excited.
For him, there is nothing more comfortable than pretending to be like this.
What does it mean to invest in a movie that can be selected for the Oscars?
The movie won Cannes and Berlin. So what?
It's nothing more than attending the red carpet.
What does it mean to take a few steps on the red carpet?
Fashion is all about style.
What is needed is the right to speak.
From now on, let alone the well-known directors in Hollywood, which country in the world would you go to, and which director would not smile first when seeing you?
I want to ask the director why he smiled at Little John?
CC For filmmakers and movie fans, the films released by CC are compulsory for film majors.
For some directors, having their film included in CC and released as a set is a more precious honor than winning an Oscar.
Since its establishment, CC has only published "classics in film history and important contemporary films".
Popular commercial films, no matter how high they are at the box office, are not outstanding and cannot even pass the CC threshold.
Unpopular art films have no artistic value and CC won't even look at them.
Because every film included in CC is produced using top-notch production equipment and experts in the film and television industry. An excellent work will take 2-3 years to finally be produced into a numbered DVD.
It will be out of print once sold out and will never be released again.
At the same time, during the film production process, the director and photographer of the film will be invited to work together.
Each film will not be deleted or altered, and the picture proportions will be kept to the most original. We strive to restore 100% of the director's original creative intentions and enjoy the pure original flavor.
Do you want to hear the director and screenwriter's explanation of their creation?
Want to see those rare behind-the-scenes footage from masterpieces in film history?
Want to see the clips that were deleted by the producers of these masterpieces in film history when they were released?
Want to get the documentary handwriting of the film creator and gain a precious collection for film lovers?
There is a saying that has been circulating in the film industry.
"No one knows movies better than the director, except CC"
There is no need to hold an awards ceremony.
Just by announcing the film collection of that year, the influence in the film industry is no less than that of Cannes, Venice, Berlin, Oscar and other film festivals.
This is the key to Hermès’ immediate decision to enter CC.
Although the proportion of shares has not been disclosed, it is speculated that the number is not a decimal.
Although CC is a small company.
The scale of JANUSFILMS is not large either.
But the DVD copyrights of more than 2,000 rare films include all the best films in the world's century-old film history.
However, among the films included in CC, there are also Chinese films.
But there are very few (due to the timeline), and they are all Hong Kong films.
"Of course, what is more worth looking forward to is that we hope to invite artists, designers, and filmmakers from various countries to cooperate to create a center that promotes the development of art films. This is an honor for our Hermès Film Investment Company."
< br>Backstage at the press conference, Xiang Yang looked speechlessly at Little John, who was bragging on the stage.
This is a big deal.
It also built an art development center. This acquisition fee directly squeezed out all of my shares in H51 at the end of the year.
However, he thinks it is quite meaningful to promote such cooperation.
Not to mention its potential commercial value, after all, CC is not pursuing commercialization.
Axel’s push to acquire and take ownership of these two companies is more based on their own artistic design purposes.
Just talking about the upcoming cooperation with China Film Group is enough to make Xiang Yang feel that he has at least done some pragmatic things for Chinese-language films.
Promoting CC to include some Chinese films is definitely what he will do next.
In terms of copyright, Han Sanping from Huaying has guaranteed the greatest discount.
Thinking that the movies he would watch with Liu Qianqian in the future would all have such a close relationship with him, a rippling smile appeared on the corner of Xiang Yang's mouth.
After finishing the press conference, I communicated with the representatives of CC and JANUSFILMS.
Little John quickly came to Xiangyang's side.
“Thank you so much for supporting me.”
Little John, who had a big face, didn’t pretend to be in front of Xiang Yang. He excitedly gave Xiang Yang a cordial hug. The haze from a few days ago no longer appeared on his face.
The two originally made an appointment to go to Saudi Arabia to watch the F1 race, but they had to turn it down because of these two important acquisitions.
"Xiang, they are going to treat us to a meal."
"Well, okay."
Xiang Yang agreed with a smile.
“Just watch, there will be more people inviting us to dinner later.”
Little John smiled triumphantly.
He dared to believe that there would be countless calls and text messages on his mobile phone tonight.
In addition to well-known directors and producers, there will also be senior executives from Hollywood producers.
Because they all know CC’s name.
"Yes, congratulations then." Xiangyang said perfunctorily. Fortunately, these people were calling him instead of calling themselves
I remembered that before I accompanied Little John to participate in the acquisition this time, I was called by Anna Wintour to have a meal with Spielberg and Catherine.
Not to mention how much he doesn’t want his life to be entangled in this kind of entertainment.
He was laughed at by Little John for mistaking Kathleen Kennedy for the president's family whose head was exploded. But can it be up to him?
“By the way, don’t forget to promise me what you promised me.”
"Don't worry, I will communicate with Mr. Han when the time comes."
In response to Xiangyang's request, Little John patted his chest and promised.
The sky by the lakeside of Huailai County Government Office Mo, on the set of "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate".
Brother Xun, who has just returned from Paris Fashion Week, is sharing interesting stories about his trip to Paris with his teammates Gui Lunmei and Chun.
Indispensable is the relationship between Hermès and LVMH Group, which shocked the European and American luxury goods circles.
After the LVMH Group announced its acquisition of Hermès at the press conference on the second day, Hermès’s stock price reached its limit again that day.
It is different from China.
On the Paris trading market in France, the daily limit will not be triggered until the daily increase reaches 21.25%.
With two consecutive days of daily limit, Hermès’s stock price rose by nearly 50%, and did not start to fall until the opening of the third day. Until it was suspended by the Paris Stock Exchange, Hermès’s stock price was higher than the price of the press conference. It was down 20% previously.
When AMF announced that it was investigating the acquisition, LVMH Group’s shares were not doing well.
The outside world is generally not optimistic about the acquisition of LVMH Group.
But this kind of melon tastes like a cloud.
It’s hard for the general public to care.
They don’t care who is the boss among luxury brands that have nothing to do with life.
Brother Xun also described the fact that she stayed in Paris for two more days because others asked about it.
In her words, everyone in Paris who is related to the fashion circle is talking about this big event.
"Teacher Zhou, Director Xu Ke calls you."
"Okay, I'll go over right now."
Hold the script on the side, Brother Xun After smiling with the other two people, he quickly stood up and walked towards the director's team.
For more than a week, I have delayed a lot of progress because I went to Paris.
Today’s first scene hasn’t been filmed yet.
"Brother Xun, come and sit down quickly. Let me ask you something."
Seeing Brother Xun coming with his assistant, Xu Ke said hello with a smile on his face. .
"Director Xu Ke." Brother Xun was a little confused. Isn't it about the script?
“Let me ask you, are you familiar with the designer named Xiang Yang?”
"Director Xiang?"
He nodded subconsciously, and Brother Xun's doubts turned into surprise.
Old Monster Xu asked Xiang Yang what he was doing.
In another crew, when Jiang Wen received the news, he also stopped what he was doing.
Not only him, but also Zhou Runfa, who was sorting out his costumes and chatting about the script with Uncle Ge, was stunned when he heard this.
"This is a big deal."
After confirming the news with producer Marco, Jiang Wen really didn't expect such a thing to happen.
This kind of thing may not matter to actors.
But for a director, or a director who wants to make a difference, that is a big deal.
In a sense, for a director, this is tantamount to winning the Academy Award for Best Director or Best Picture.
"You want to call Lao Han?" Jiang Wen frowned. It was not appropriate for him to make this call.
After all, the quarrel between him and Xiang Yang at Han Sanping's last time was actually a bit unpleasant.
"Old Jiang, it would be more appropriate for you to make this call." Of course, Marco knew that Jiang Wen's suggestion was out of concern for face, so he smiled and joked:
"For such a thing, I'm so humble He's tall, so there's no shame in it."
"Shit, what does this have to do with being embarrassed?" A look of excitement appeared on Jiang Wen's face.
He felt that it would be more appropriate to at least let Marco go to Han Sanping to talk to Han Sanping, and then call him to inquire.
After all, asking this yourself
is too contrary to his saying "make money while standing".
It is easy to be ridiculed by Han Sanping in the future.
Compared with his entanglement, Chen Kexin, who had previously criticized Xiang Yang in front of the media because of the "Pinyin Incident", really regretted that he had nothing to do.
It's just a matter of changing the pinyin of your name, why bother with it.
In Italy, Liu Qianxi was a little confused when she received a call from Ridley Scott.
Xiang Yang and Little John are really unreliable.
Why are you always so startled and scary?
But the call has not been hung up yet, and soon more calls came to her.
"I am Xiang Yang's wife! But I am not Xiang Yang's little secret!"
"This damn stinky guy!!!"
I saw someone leaving a message saying that the male protagonist should start a family. Film company.
But in fact, if you want to improve Liu Qianqian’s status, you don’t need to set up a film company to specifically serve her.
After all, the male protagonist is from the fashion industry.
What the fashion industry cares about is the right to speak, to guide the direction of fashion value, and to improve its own grade through methods with more artistic value, forming a barrier that is difficult for others to overcome, thereby overlooking the entertainment industry.
As for CC, it may not be suitable for the public, or more people will not associate it with movies.
But this company is real.
Including another company in the article.
Although they don’t want Warner, Lionsgate, Columbia Pictures, Disney and Fox to be as well-known as everyone, they are slightly niche.
But its influence in the professional field is also huge.
And it is highly sought after because of its excellent artistic value.
Especially in film restoration.
In recent years, most of the old movies that have been converted to 4K, 1280, etc. rely on their restoration copyrights.
And the price of one of their unpopular movie DVDs is basically more than 200 soft sister coins without discounts (how much is it for ordinary people, how much is it for website members).
Therefore, letting Little John acquire this film company is not only consistent with the style of Hermès Film Investment Company, but also a company with the right to speak.
Just like the movies that the male protagonist and the others have participated in this year, although they are not famous, they are all movies that have won numerous awards. It’s just that people don’t pay much attention to this type of movies. If you don’t believe it, you can check it online.
