Chapter 807
Li An said casually: "This is what you deserve. Although you regard me as a friend of age and I also regard you as a friend, in terms of money, you should take away what you deserve. I don't want to take advantage of you in this regard. Moreover, I believe you also understand my personality. If you don't accept this money, I will feel guilty about it."
Until today, even though Li An had already completed filming of Brokeback Mountain, even though Brokeback Mountain has been released for a while, Li An still loves the script Brokeback Mountain deeply.
Jin Jingcheng almost created this script based on his impressions in his previous life. Fortunately, he was very interested in movies in his previous life. He has watched and is familiar with many movies. Brokeback Mountain is one of them. Otherwise, his original ability alone would not be enough to create a high-quality and profound film script like Brokeback Mountain.
Moreover, Jin Jingcheng also modified the script based on some small flaws in Brokeback Mountain in his previous life. On the one hand, it was to make Li An make a more perfect movie, and on the other hand, it was to ensure that the script he created could win Li An's satisfaction.
Because of this, Brokeback Mountain script has gained a good reputation, and even won the Golden Globe Award for Best Script and was shortlisted for Best Adapted Script for Academy Awards.
Although Brokeback Mountain's script achieved such impressive results in its previous life, its screenwriters were two more famous American screenwriters, and in this life they were replaced.
If it weren't for Kim Jingcheng who strengthened the quality of this script and hadn't he played a mystery in his identity, he probably wouldn't have achieved such results in this life.
Jin Jingcheng paused and said, "Let's do this, I accept the compensation for this compensation, but I won't take it away directly, but donate it to you and the investors in Brokeback Mountain. I hope you can use this money to take advantage of the last few days to further strengthen the public relations for the Academy Awards, because I was also shortlisted for the Best Change of Script, and strengthening PR will be beneficial to me."
Every year, the Academy Awards are a world-renowned film industry. However, Jin Jingcheng knows that even the top global film awards such as the Academy Awards are secretly tricky.
Jin Jingcheng knew that every year in the early stage of the Academy Awards, the directors and investors who were shortlisted for the film were extremely busy, and for nothing else, for public relations, whether there was public relations or the intensity of public relations, it can be said that it had an important impact on the chance of winning the award.
Hollywood even has specialized PR Oscar companies and elites.
Brokeback Mountain has been shortlisted for several awards this time, so naturally it cannot be lost in public relations. Recently, Li An has been staying in Los Angeles, just busy working with investors to conduct public relations with Brokeback Mountain, hoping to increase the chance of Brokeback Mountain winning the award, and hope that Brokeback Mountain can win more awards.
Once Brokeback Mountain wins the Academy Award or even wins several awards, the direct benefit is that Brokeback Mountain's box office can make a comeback and make a big profit. The indirect benefit is that it can greatly enhance the reputation of director Li An and the investors, and is beneficial to the films they direct or invest in in the future.
And PR is inevitably going to cost money.
Li An said: "The investors have already allocated a lot of public relations funds, so why do you, the screenwriter, need to get the money?"
Jin Jingcheng smiled and said, "This is my intention. Besides, I was indeed shortlisted for the Best Adapted Screenplay at this Academy Awards, and the chance of winning is not like this. In addition to the good reputation of the script, it is also because you and the investor have conducted public relations."
Jin Jingcheng continued: "This Oscar Best Adapted Screenplay Award has extraordinary significance for me personally. Once it can be won, it will bring me a huge reputation. In order to further increase the chance of winning, let alone 500,000 US dollars, even if it is 5 million US dollars, I am willing to provide support to you and the investors."
Li An nodded in understanding. Although he was a very elegant person, he didn't like to be too polite and more courageous when doing serious business. Otherwise, he would not have decisively launched Jin Jingcheng's script.
Li An smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I won't persuade you. I won't give you the 500,000 US dollars, but don't worry, I guarantee that the 500,000 US dollars will be spent on the public relations of the Academy Awards."
Jin Jingcheng smiled and said, "I am completely relieved of this. I respect the director's character very much."
Li An smiled shyly, and after thinking about something, she smiled mysteriously at Jin Jingcheng and asked, "By the way, the organizer of this Academy Awards will ask you to meet this afternoon?"
Jin Jingcheng nodded: "Yes."
This morning and this afternoon, Jin Jingcheng was going to meet with one person, or to be called by one person respectively.
The one who met Jin Jingcheng in the morning was Li An, and the one who met Jin Jingcheng in the afternoon was the representative of the organizer of this Academy Awards.
Li An smiled mysteriously again and asked deliberately: "Is there anything wrong with the Oscar organizer suddenly asked you?"
Jin Jingcheng responded with a smile: "I believe you won't know about this, director, right?"
The Oscar organizer contacted Jin Jingcheng through Li An. Jin Jingcheng believed that Li An must know what the Oscar organizer suddenly made an appointment.
Li An smiled awkwardly, then sighed and said, "You are a very lucky person. The things the Oscar organizer asked you this time will be your lucky one."
Jin Jingcheng nodded: "Yes, I think so too. If I can really negotiate with the other party this afternoon, then it will also have extraordinary significance to me and will bring me a huge reputation."
After saying that, Jin Jingcheng and Li An smiled knowingly.
In the afternoon, Jin Jingcheng took a bus to another coffee shop.
When Americans meet, the coffee shop is an important place, and Jin Cheng is already used to it.
At this coffee shop, Jin Jingcheng met with an important representative of the organizer of this Academy Awards.
An hour later, Jin Jingcheng walked out of the coffee shop.
When he walked out of the coffee shop, Jin Jingcheng's face was filled with unconcealed excitement and joy.
It must be a great thing to make Jin Jingcheng now difficult to hide his excitement and joy.
Yes, Jin Jingcheng had already negotiated with the other party about this matter, just as Jin Jingcheng said to Li An in the morning. This matter has extraordinary significance to him and will bring him a huge reputation.
It's almost time, and there are a few days left to be the day for this Academy Awards ceremony.
That day, Kim Jingcheng will show his extraordinary halo to the Americans, Koreans, and people all over the world, and let himself reap extraordinary glory. To be continued.
