The Oscars are surging and tides are everywhere every year. The benefits maintained by a small golden man far exceed the scope that an independent individual can imagine, and then formed a huge industry that even the six major Hollywood film companies cannot ignore.
In 2004, the Oscars ceremony was held from the end of March to the end of February, which directly changed the layout of the entire summer season and further changed the layout of the entire Hollywood screening schedule. This is the most direct proof.
Warner Bros. and Weinstein Pictures are also one of the competitors of this year's awards season, but they are not opponents to face each other head-on. However, if the two sides confront each other head-on, then the two film companies cannot sit idly by. The pure natural interests maintained by the Oscar Little Golden Man doomed to compete with both sides. Once Harvey Weinstein takes the initiative to attack "gravity", Warner Bros. will inevitably fight back.
This is what Lanli is looking forward to seeing.
But objectively speaking, this is not the result of Renley's advance layout. Harvey's appearance today was a complete accident. Even if the Weinstein brothers had turned around and left, Renley still didn't understand the purpose of Harvey's appearance.
Was it just coming over to sarcasm? When did Harvey become so idle? Or did he come over to show off his power? Or did he try to snipe the "explosive drummer"? Or did he seek cooperation for reconciliation? But in the brief conversation just now, almost nothing was mentioned. Both sides were just talking, and after putting aside those tit-for-tat confrontations, there was actually nothing.
All the situations were not expected by Renli.
However, as the conversation progressed, Lan Li pushed things to another extreme with the flow, and then quietly waited for the situation to ferment and extension.
To be honest, Lanley does not have the ability to predict the future. He cannot be sure that Harvey will choose Tour to join forces, nor is he sure that Harvey is willing to stand opposite to Warner Bros. He cannot even be sure whether Harvey will start from awards season and everyone is calculating the "hearts of the people", but this is exactly the most difficult part.
Lanli was just taking advantage of the situation.
Thanks to Renley's previous layout, the entire Hollywood is now in a turbulent situation. Thomas Tour and Vin Diesel's positions have been deliberately pushed out because they have a positive conflict of interest with Renley, and the attitudes and positions of Warner Bros. and Universal Pictures have naturally received more attention.
At the same time, because of egot, awards season, and Sundance, Lanli has already stood at the forefront. Now is undoubtedly the best time to attack Lanli, which can even be said to be the will of the people. There is no need to create special opportunities, but just need to follow public opinion to gain the upper hand.
Faced with such a situation, if the Weinstein brothers want to attack Renly, or if Tour wants to suppress Renly, they will have the most direct and conspicuous cooperation goal in front of them, whether they are watching over each other with tacit understanding or joining forces in secret, the enemy is friends, and they can always find opportunities for cooperation between each other.
This is the situation that Lanli hopes to see, because he needs Warner Bros. to enter the game and really enter the game.
In fact, Warner Bros. is already in the game and has never and can't really stay out of it. There is no need to say much about the awards season. "Gravity" has been rising all the way to become the first group of awards season. Kevin Tsujihara is absolutely impossible to miss it easily; and about Lanli's cooperation situation, they have also made a fuss, saying that Lanli may join the DC works.
But, that's all.
Kevin Tsujihara has a personality that does not show off the rabbit and does not show off his eagle. Apart from the awards season, they have always maintained a look at Lanli's attitude, just letting the industry rumors surging and not fully involved. But Lanli knows that the current situation is no longer something Warner Bros. can stop. They only need a little spark to push, and they must make some moves. Kevin Tsujihara must also know this.
So, all Renli needs to do is to push the situation a little.
He could not predict whether Harvey was willing to join forces with Toul, nor whether Toul was willing to respond to Harvey. Now he just pushed for a little while. As for whether they were willing to take the bait, he just waited and waited for it.
It seems a bit strange that Lan Li is taking the initiative to cause trouble for herself, and it is trouble like Harvey and Tours, but this is just a manifestation.
Regardless of whether Lanli angered Harvey or whether Lanli provoked Tours or not, position determines their heads. Lanli has long stood on their opposite side, and there have been irreconcilable conflicts due to interests. Even without today's conflict, Harvey will never miss the opportunity to attack Lanli.
Although there are no eternal enemies in the face of interests, only potential friends; Lan Li has no intention of making friends with them in a false way.
Now, Lan Li is in the bright and the enemy is in the dark. Since he has stood in a position where he may be attacked anytime and anywhere, why not take the initiative to attack and let these potential attacks become part of his layout?
"You did it on purpose just now, right?" Andre said blindly. He only caught a little clue and gave a guess based on his intuition.
Lan Li raised his eyebrows slightly. Compared to his own way of going with the flow, he was even more surprised that Andrei had a keen sense of smell. He couldn't help but say meaningfully, "No wonder people always say that the way of thinking determines the way of looking at problems. What businessmen see is always interests and opportunities, and what haters see is always prejudice and conflict."
Andre was able to see Lanli's intentions because he had a sufficiently high perspective on the pattern. Strictly speaking, when planning from a global height, Andre was better than Lanli. This was never Lanli's strength. He could capture the context of things, but he still lacked enough control.
Faced with Lan Li's teasing, Andre was indifferent, and his hands were folded on his chest, looking careless, but this young master did it, but it was more casual than slutty. "So, isn't it?"
Lanli smiled and said, "I'm trying hard." That's the admission.
Andre curled his lips, not surprised by such an answer, "I said it." Harvey Weinstein had never really experienced Lan Li's devilish nature and decisively pushed himself to the fire in a flash, risking his bones to change the entire battle situation. This cruelty and decisiveness were enough to make countless heroes pale.
"But just that, it's still not enough to pull Warner Brothers into the water. Do I need me to add fuel to the fire?" Andre immediately captured the key to the matter. If he wanted to plot against his opponent and wait for the situation, there were too many variables; then they needed to further complete the arrangements and let the matter develop in their expected direction.
Unexpectedly, Lan Li shook her head, "Too many actions are more than just a snail, which can easily cause vigilance."
No matter how Harvey is planning, as long as he stands on the opposite side of "gravity" during the awards season, Warner Bros. must enter the game; as for Toul, that is only an additional factor. Even if Toul does not join the line with Harvey, it will not affect the overall situation. His joining only makes Kevin Tsujihara stand on Renly's side more firmly in his personal relationship.
Andre glared at Lan Li speechlessly and complained, "I'm not Eaton, how can such a small thing leave traces? Just hold two private parties, no one can see the traces."
Renley let out a low laugh, "Arthur is here?"
"Weekend." Andre replied that the awards season has entered the second phase, and Renley is also making arrangements throughout Hollywood. Now is the best time to promote the situation. Arthur Hall is about to come to Los Angeles to help.
Then Andre fell silent.
Lan Li noticed Andre's small changes and couldn't help but recall Matthew's words in his mind, "I know you value friends, but friends should not just accompany you for eating and drinking. You should learn to rely more on your friends. Last time you asked Andre for help for 'one-person concert', he was actually very happy. You know, you are not alone."
"Do you have a way to get Universal Pictures and Disney into the game?" Renley said.
Andre raised his eyes, looked Renley's expression carefully, and then said, "Disney and the Weinstein brothers are already tense. Miramax Pictures has now become Bob Iger's most troublesome trouble. It doesn't require too much action at all. If you release some rumors of catching winds and shadows, the atmosphere will be tense enough."
Although he didn't say much, Andre's tone became obviously lighter.
"As for Universal Pictures, are they doing anything this year's awards season?" Andrey showed a confused expression.
During this period, Andre has been making up for his homework and has a further understanding of the power structure of Hollywood. The history of Miramax Films is naturally an indispensable part.
"'Dallas Buyers Club', the focus of the work." Renley supplemented the puzzle for Andre.
Andrey gently looked at his head, and then he thought slowly. With hesitation, he said with the flow, "No matter what, Harvey himself is also a public enemy of Hollywood. In the past years, he may not remember the object of his offense. If he can accurately grasp the key to his connections, it is not impossible to let Harvey dig a hole and jump by himself."
After pausing, Andre looked at Renly curiously again, "Is there any story between Bob and Harvey?" Renly's actions just now were obviously meaningful.
Lanli picked up the coffee cup and said slowly, "If you and Alexander teamed up to create an existing career, but Alexander enjoyed all the light and had to control all the situation, would you be willing?" Then Lanli put the coffee cup next to her mouth and tasted it carefully.
