Chapter 160 Poor Ghost [First update](2/2)

When Qin Dong heard this, he asked expressionlessly:

"Then what? Does it matter?"

"The Weinstein Company, Harvey, I've heard, isn't this a poor man who can only collect low-budget films, or deceive foreign film producers, and get films at low prices? Such a person, Martin, you need

Do you care? Or do I need to care?"

Qin Dong really knew this person, but he had no good impression of such a person.

Harvey is indeed very powerful in Hollywood, but unfortunately he can only be powerful when it comes to Oscar awards.

His company is not big, it is an independent production company. It is not strong enough and can only make small-budget films. Although he has energy and has produced actors and directors, he actually does not have much capital.

He is also outspoken, has a very bad temper, and is lustful. All six major Hollywood companies have been scolded by this person.

If it weren't for this person's race, plus the fact that he was very good at pleasing the old Oscar judges, giving gifts every year with all kinds of tricks, and PR men in their 70s and 80s, the six major companies would have wanted him out long ago.

It is precisely this point that makes the six major companies hold their noses and endure it. Many actors and directors still value the Oscar.

Harvey also relied on this to win many Oscars, including Best Picture and so on. Many "Queens of Water" were produced by Harvey. It is commonly said that actresses with poor acting skills can win Oscars.

Best Actress Award.

However, it can also be seen that this fat guy is good at public relations with the old Oscar judges. However, Harvey is very proud of himself. He is so proud of it that he has actually ruined the reputation of the Oscars. Many people know this very well.

There is no principle of fairness in awards. Only fools believe it.

I heard that this person does a lot of red sofa operations.

And he often does forced things, not to mention forced, the key is that he often eats for free without paying, he is a very disgusting guy.

This person's company is not very strong, but he is very good at deceiving, especially foreigners.

I often go to foreign film festivals and discover good movies from other countries. I will brag about buying them and releasing them in North America, and do some PR and Oscar awards to keep the prices down.

Even if the price is low, the key point is that he likes to be indifferent and often breaks contracts. For example, a North American film company took notice of a film at a foreign film festival, and they offered 5 million US dollars to win the copyright. Harvey.

A poor man will say 8 million.

He was not a generous person, he just said this deliberately so as to crowd out other people from other companies, and then he refused to sign the contract. After the film festival was over, he said he didn't want it anymore. At this time, these foreign filmmakers were dumbfounded.

All other North American companies left, and in the end they had no choice but to sell it to Harvey at a low price of two to three million.

There are directors in China who have encountered this kind of thing several times and been tricked, so Qin Dong knows nothing about this scumbag.

As soon as I heard this name, my face immediately turned ugly and my words became rude.

....

Martin was stunned and understood.

This Chinese director doesn't look down on Harvey at all, and doesn't care about his relationship with the Oscars. This man may really have no intention of competing for Oscars. Although Martin doesn't care, most foreign artists and directors care about Oscars.

ah.

"I understand, as you said, Harvey is a poor man."

"He can only hang out with the old guys like Oscar and use some worthless antiques to fool these old guys."

"It's just awards. We don't need these to fool outsiders. Movies that make money are the truth."

"After I go back, I will ask the author of this novel to break the contract, and we will pay CAA the penalty for breaking the contract."

Qin Dong nodded indifferently:

"Very good, that's it, just break the contract. With Harvey's temperament as a poor guy, the royalties will not be much, and the break-up fee won't be much either. Just take it. I don't care about the break-up fee. It's not necessary.

Let CAA come out."

After thoroughly understanding Qin Dong's attitude towards the award, Martin left with satisfaction.

Mere awards are just for deceiving people and are for outsiders to see.

Anyone who really understands it understands it, but big Hollywood companies like them must adopt an attitude of taking Oscars seriously.

Didn’t you see that some of the best actor and actress Oscar winners could get 20 plus 20 in salary?
