"Colombia and Fireflies will push "Avatar" to win the double prize?"

"Colombia executives commented: "Avatar" has done what 99.9 percent of the world's films cannot do. It has broadened the entire market and pointed out the direction of shooting in the future. So why can't we win the Oscars anymore? That's not surprising."

"Science fiction movies are the embodiment of imagination, and imagination is the source of film progress. In other words, it is time for Oscars to face up to science fiction themes."

Lehman, who was obsessed with filming, had to leave the crew and briefly took a vacation because of the arrival of the 82nd Academy Awards Season.

First, on February 2, the organizing committee announced the nomination list.

Among them, although "Avatar" has not won an actor award, he has not missed the technical award and the final two awards - Best Director and Best Film.

Taking advantage of this topic, Colombia and Blue Butterfly obviously did not miss this kind of hype opportunity. The new round of marketing and public relations is centered around whether "Avatar" will win the double prize, which quickly attracted the attention of audience and movie fans, and even became a message of the discussion trend of judges, selection personnel and even other public relations companies.

And every viewer who has watched "Avatar" also hopes that the movies they have watched and the movies they like become the creator of miracles—

"It's like the Titanic in the past. It's the first place in film history and then won the grand prize. It's very reasonable, isn't it? The box office is so high and it's still rising. Besides awarding the grand prize, who else can be so persuasive?"

"Haha, there is no nomination for "Avatar" as a cast. It feels like the organizing committee is satirizing that the main characters in this movie are performing with a mask. No, they can no longer be called performances. They are the product of CG fusion, but I have to say that although I feel that "In the Cloud" and "Bomb Disposal Force" are all good movies, these masterpieces are unlucky and unlucky to collide with "Avatar", and their influence is not of the same order of magnitude."

"I am the only one who cares about Catherine, the director of "Bomb Disposal Force", is Cameron's ex-wife? It's quite interesting to compete with these two people. I really want to see Cameron's expression at the dinner."

In fact, the popularity of discussion on Yahoo is only a reflection of the film's influence, and prediction agencies are also celebrating the crown of "Avatar" in advance, as Liam said on the phone: "In the face of absolute strength, everyone is expected to be."

But Lehmann is not that optimistic. It is a common occurrence for Oscars to see. The old antiques seem to want to use this method to express their unique reviews and highlight their professionalism.

After all, "Save Private Ryan" was so useless. It was popular before the selection. After the selection, the audience was so angry that they could not change the established facts.

But it is impossible to lower the popularity of "Avatar". It is only one step away from being able to surpass "Titanic" and become the number one in film history. Fans and studios around the world are watching it, and it has been on the Yahoo hot search list, and the box office is updated in real time.

In the office in Colombia.

When Lehman talked about this, Gareth, the president of the distribution, quickly understood Lehman's intentions, but he quickly said: "Don't worry, man. Even if you can't get it, what's the matter? The box office of "Avatar" has exceeded our estimates. Even if you win the jackpot, it's just an extra round of hype topics. But it now has enough attention. With the profit margin close to the upper limit, the more investment, the lower the return rate."

"But you said from the perspective of return on investment, have you considered the feelings of the crew's main creators? Will they want us to actively communicate with them and win awards and enrich their resumes."

"No, do you think Cameron attaches great importance to the Olympic Award? In fact, after the nomination was announced, he didn't even call me a phone call, but I took the initiative to call him. Then he said he wanted to be quiet for a while and hung up directly. As for those technical awards, they are optional."

"You mean, we won't fight?"

"Why not fight? It's just that our two companies don't need to invest too much effort in public relations. Look, we just mentioned the double prize, which caused discussion, which is enough." Gareth looked very comfortable.

The fact is that Colombia is the second most profitable person for the success of "Avatar", so their attitude towards Lehman has become increasingly close recently.

"A business is completed, we all have to look forward." Gareth was still happy.

"Yes, you're right."

Lehman agreed that this cooperation could bring hundreds of millions of revenue to Colombia. Does that mean that he can inquire about their intentions and take advantage of the close relationship?

Lemann didn't hesitate and asked, "Well, Gareth, what are your considerations about Spider?"

"This..." Gareth suddenly had a headache: Why did he talk about this again? It's really hard to deal with it.

"Are you any concerns? Maybe we can solve it, and many things need to be sat down and talked about?"

"Forget it, I'll just say it. Lehman, you know that Spider is already a very successful IP project in our company, and... I'm in charge of distribution and not responsible for project establishment and production. Do you understand what I mean? This kind of big project involves all aspects, and it's not something that a person can decide."

"I understand, I understand, but are there people who are interested in cooperating?"

"Of course, you may underestimate your own production capabilities, but our advantages are not bad, and many people tend to develop independently."

"I mean if, what should I do to impress those hesitant?"

"It's hard, Lehman, will you give up the copyright of Avatar or Marvel projects?"

"Uh..." Leman thought for a while, "The relationship between the two is somewhat different. I know that Spider's development seems to be in a deadlock. I believe you understand how much the risk of restarting is."

“Risks also often represent benefits.”

Gareth was very busy, and Lehman was very busy. When talking about this, he knew that Colombia still had no intention of changing, so he took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

In any case, they were always confident before Colombia hit a wall, which was a prerequisite for Lehmann to sit on the negotiating table.

During this period, the Olympic Wind has always been inclined toward "Avatar". Even some stereotyped film critics have to admit the charm of "Avatar" - not telling a story, but rather finding a new shooting direction and an innovation that can capture the audience's hearts of entering the theater to watch movies.
