Chapter 1077: In front of me

Probably because the Hollywood black leader is used to the black Washington side. On the working day after the release of "Vampire Hunter Lincoln", at the regular press conference of the White Room, the current commander also talked about this film, and I think the movie is very exciting.

Just as the former chief and the councillors talked about "House of Cards", both up and down didn't care much about the spoof of this kind of film.

"Vampire Slayer Lincoln" has a fairly steady trend in North America, and it won the box office title for the second weekend when it was released in North America.

With a box office of 14.68 million U.S. dollars the next weekend, the film beat the 11.38 million U.S. dollars of "Network Murder" that was released in the first week.

Ten days after its release, the North American box office of "Vampire Hunter Lincoln" easily exceeded $50 million.

Overseas, the film received quite a good response, even surpassing North America. It has been shown in dozens of overseas markets and produced a total of 72.15 million US dollars in ten days.

Compared to the film's total investment of 20 million US dollars, "Vampire Hunter Lincoln" can be called a box office big seller.

Inspired by this, Uvi Bauer is full of enthusiasm. After finishing the post-production of "The Demon Hunter Washington", he immediately invested in the preparation of "Franklin the Thunder Magister".

The series has already made a very good start, as long as there are two or three more films succeeding, it will form a cascading effect.

Uvi Bauer also stopped being a licking dog for Blizzard Entertainment, stayed away from "World of Warcraft", completely abandoned the identity of the spare tire, and devoted all his energy to this series of movies.

I don't know if it was some kind of strange psychological cause. I didn't see Uvi Bauer visit the door for half a year. Blizzard Entertainment contacted him and told Baoge to go to Blizzard for more.

In this world, many people and many things are often lost before they know how to cherish.

Unfortunately, Brother Bao has no time and energy to deal with Blizzard in a short time.

Because of the phrase "human beings are never slaves", Ronan also took the time to watch "World of Warcraft", and the Lich King was just angry.

The award season is still going on, and one of the strange awards announced the nominations.

On the nomination list for the Golden Raspberry Award, Brother Bao once again occupied multiple positions, and was nominated for the worst director and worst film with last year's "Life and Death Fight".

In addition, "Transformers" is also a big nominee, Candice Swanepoel was nominated for the worst actress, Optimus Prime and Megatron each received a nomination for the worst actor and worst supporting actor.

As a super large producer of commercial films in the Hollywood circle, Relativity Entertainment has been called the super winner of every Golden Plum Award in recent years.

What is amazing is that Relativity Entertainment has also been a super winner at the Oscars in recent years, and it has won the best film statuette for three consecutive years.

Relativity Entertainment's key award-winning project this year is "Slumdog Millionaire", and the main target of the impact is still the best film.

In terms of best director, Danny Boyle does not have the upper hand than the Coen brothers.

In the real Oscar Weathervane Guild Award, "Slumdog Millionaire" won the Producers League's Best Picture Award, but the Directors Guild's Best Director Award fell to the Coen Brothers.

The professional public relations team of Embassy Pictures has also conducted an analysis and believes that this year's Oscars may have a super cake situation.

Although the screenwriters' strike is still going on, the awards season is still going on, especially the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. It is impossible to smash the Oscar sign because of the strike.

In late January, the Academy of Film announced the list of nominations for the Oscars.

Due to the screenwriter’s strike, the usual Oscar nominations luncheon was cancelled and replaced by a press conference. Jessica Alba announced the nomination list.

Three films of Relativity Entertainment were nominated.

Pixar Studios' Ratatouille was nominated for best animated feature film.

Since there are only three nominations for the Best Animated Feature Film Award, the academy obviously does not want this award to become a civil war of Relativity Entertainment. The other two nominations are taken by "Surfing Penguin" and the politically significant "I Grow Up in Iran". occupy.

"Sunshine Girl" received nominations for best makeup, best original screenplay, best actress and best photography.

"Slumdog Millionaire" became one of the big winners in the nomination list, and won the best soundtrack, best sound editing, best editing, best photography, best adapted screenplay, best director and best film seven Nominate.

Of all the nominated awards, the one that has the most confidence is the best animated feature film of "Ratuitouille", which is basically no suspense.

The award for "Sunshine Girl" is purely a matter of luck.

"Slumdog Millionaire" guarantees the best film first.

With the announcement of the Oscar nominations, there is a kind of worry that has begun to appear in the circle and outside the circle. Influenced by the screenwriters' strike, can this year's Oscar awards ceremony be held smoothly?

The screenwriters’ union publicly declared that if the strike continues, all its members will attend the Oscars and will not write lines and collusions for the Oscars.

Time slowly dragged into February, and there was no progress in the negotiations, and all the patience was almost consumed.

In particular, the film academy can be described as anxious to get angry, acting as an intermediary several times, and wanting to reach an agreement between the screenwriters union and the producer alliance as soon as possible.

But when it comes to interests, how can it be that simple.

From the strike to mid-February, Hollywood producers’ paper losses exceeded 300 million U.S. dollars, and the total wage losses of all members of the screenwriters’ union amounted to 28 million U.S. dollars.

Ordinary screenwriters, which account for the vast majority of screenwriters’ unions, can no longer hold up. If the screenwriters' union were not for partial subsidies, many of them would even have a basic life problem.

Life is not only about poetry and the distance, but also the struggling in front of me.

People have no ideals, what is the difference with salted fish? But I only see ideals, and I can't even eat salted fish.

If the strike continues, many screenwriters really can't even eat burgers.

The voice of this person is gradually reflected in the screenwriters’ union. Although a single person has a low right to speak, many people are united and cannot be ignored.

In fact, some people have already started private activities and are considering working again to make money.

Those well-known screenwriters do have a greater say, but without extensive screenwriting support, they can't compete with the producer alliance.

Moreover, the producer has again made some concessions.

Towards mid-February, negotiations between the Producers Union and the Screenwriters’ Union finally made progress, giving people hope that the strike would end in the short term.

But the upper-level figures of the screenwriters' union still did not give up that idea. The screenwriters' union must at least get the treatment of the actors' union.

This is the biggest difference between the two sides.

The screenwriters believe that they are the key to the film and television project, but the producers only regard them as a secondary factor.

Limited to various conditions, the Producers Union finally reached an agreement with the screenwriters union, but it was only a three-year temporary agreement.

The most important part of this temporary agreement is that the screenwriters’ union has increased its fixed share in movies, dramas and reality shows.

For example, the original income of various TV copyrights has increased from 1% of the distributor’s global income to 1.2%.

The focus is still on the DVD and new media revenue required by the screenwriters’ union.

In the end, in the provisional agreement, the signed screenwriters of the screenwriters union enjoy a 1% share of the production and distributor's global revenue.

This is a huge increase over the 1.5% of the publisher’s revenue previously proposed by the Producers Alliance.

In addition, each movie enters the DVD channel, the producer will also pay the screenwriter a total of 20,000 US dollars in DVD script fees.

As for peripheral derivatives, as before, the screenwriters’ union does not have any sharing rights.

Subsequently, the Screenwriters Association held a membership vote, with an overwhelming 11775 votes in favor, unanimously agreeing to stop this protracted strike tug of war, and only 283 votes against it.

In all kinds of overdraft consumption societies, it is very rare for ordinary screenwriters to persist for such a long time.

The signing of this three-year temporary agreement also means that the screenwriters' strike has ended.

The screenwriters union sent an email to each member, calling on everyone to resume work immediately.

"The strike is over. Tomorrow, the screenwriters will return to their positions and everything will return to normal."

The screenwriters union also held a press conference: "The strike is not what we expected. We are just trying to get a reasonable commission in the revenue of new media dramas. Now, the results we have achieved are enough to give us a foothold in this digital age. "

The producers paid a certain amount of interest. Although the screenwriters union did not meet the initial requirements, the results of the negotiations have already satisfied most people.

For decades, the nature of the screenwriters’ work has not changed, that is, they take up their pens to create, but the channels and platforms of their works are constantly changing. If 20 years ago, video tapes were a new type of communication. In terms of influence, then it is now DVDs and new online media.

It is obviously impossible to refuse to change the payment method just because the screenwriters’ work methods have not changed.

Including Ronan and Relativity Entertainment, Hollywood producers know this very wellThis is the best treatment we have received in 30 years. "Many screenwriters said in interviews.

Although the screenwriters have gotten a share of the proceeds from DVDs and new online media as they wish, the term "best treatment" is more like a long breath of relief after the tug-of-war.

This three-year temporary contract is at best a psychological bottom-line price for both parties. The screenwriters union cannot use this to change its relatively low position in the industry chain, and the strength of the producer alliance cannot change with the strike.

It is foreseeable that in the future, screenwriters will go on strike due to profit and status issues in the industry chain.

Having said that, labor-management conflicts can never be completely resolved, unless all Hollywood labor unions become beautiful mascots.

With the end of the strike, Oscar was the first to benefit. Since the strike began last year, a series of award ceremonies have been aborted due to the strike, and screenwriters have also begun to prepare for the Oscars.
