Chapter 84 Disney Cartoon Kingdom
The best picture selected by the Oscars is "Seventh Heaven", while the Academy selected "Wings". Whether there are some unspoken rules in this, no one can say clearly.
The biggest beneficiary of the first Academy Awards was undoubtedly the "Seventh Heaven" team, which won three awards: Best Editing, Best Picture and Best Actor.
"Two Arabian Knights" won the best director award, "Captain Willy" won the best animation award, and Li Zitao didn't pay much attention to other insignificant things.
The winner of Best Actress is the same as the Academy's selection, which is Janet Gaynor, which also makes her a lot of attention tonight.
One can imagine how much the newspapers will publicize tomorrow. If such a good publicity opportunity is given up, Fox's publicity team should also be disbanded.
As for the Starlight Award for leaving a star on the Avenue of Stars, the winners will be notified directly around the middle of each month to come and hold the laying ceremony.
Although the outside world does not know who the winners are, Li Zitao already knows that the list of the judging council has already been scheduled for next year, and the chamber of commerce is intensively preparing for the stars.
Different from the Avenue of Stars in the previous life, the Starlight Awards will not only have names and stars representing honor in the middle, but also a layer of iron plates will be added on the back of the floor tiles.
The works and honors of the winners will be engraved on the iron plate on the back, this proposal or the high praise of the jury.
"Miss Jiabao, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to dinner?" Li Zitao directly attacked him before the show ended.
"Sorry, I'm on a diet." Seeing Frank on stage bowing in thanks, Greta turned and walked away.
"..." Standing awkwardly, Li Zitao had ten thousand words 'mmp~' in his heart
"I'll leave it to you. I'll go back to the hotel first." Leaving Aimo behind, Li Zitao walked out of the theater with nothing to love.
"Ah~ I'm sorry." Li Zitao bumped into someone, but luckily he stopped in time.
If he really hit him hard, the woman opposite would have no chance to speak at all.
"It's okay, goodbye." Li Zitao casually glanced at the other party's somewhat youthful face, and left the theater by mistake.
"Huh..." Standing in the night, Li Zitao gasped, and let out all the depression in his heart, thinking, 'My mother must be a fake protagonist. '
"Mr. Li." Just as he was unable to complain, someone suddenly caught up behind him.
"Miss Anne." Looking back, it was Anne Shirley who had a date with him before. If the other party hadn't caught up with her, Li Zitao would have forgotten about it.
"Do you have time now? Let's go to Roosevelt for a drink together?" Annie posted her delicate figure quietly.
"That's my honor." Looking at Annie's hot figure, Li Zitao nodded and smiled.
After reliving his life again, he had long ago decided to be a scumbag, how could the goddess refuse when she came to her door.
As for Greta, Li Zitao intends to use it as a long-term strategy. It is boring to always meet easy women, and life always needs some setbacks to be real.
Asking the driver to drive the car to the entrance of the Roosevelt Hotel, Li Zitao walked inside with his arms around Annie's slender and soft waist.
The two headed straight for the elevator, and they were already here, so there was no need to put on a show. Li Zitao and Annie knew exactly what the other party wanted.
It was just that when I was going upstairs, I happened to encounter some small episodes.
Greta also chose this hotel, and just after they entered the elevator, they stepped in on time.
Li Zitao withdrew his hand calmly, but Annie didn't think much about it, she just pretended that she was afraid of being seen by Greta, and greeted Greta with a calm expression: "Hi, Greta."
"Hello, Annie." Greta's mouth slightly curled up.
"Are you alone? Do you want to live together?" Annie said, holding her hand.
Li Zitao was instantly excited,
'Living together,' is a bit too much information!
"I'm here, thank you." Greta pointed to the open elevator door, and walked out of the elevator politely and indifferently.
"Tch, what's there to be proud of." When the elevator went up, Annie put away her smile and said disdainfully.
"It seems that you don't like her very much?" Li Zitao asked pretending to be nonchalant.
"Of course, every woman in Hollywood doesn't like her." Annie said as it should, "Any man who sees her will go crazy for her."
More importantly, her salary has risen too fast. From the initial weekly salary of 100 dollars to the current weekly salary of 1,200 dollars, Greta only spent 4 years.
"It would be great if I also had that face." Annie murmured jealously while touching her cheek.
"You are also beautiful." Li Zitao stepped forward and hugged her waist again and said.
"You can really talk, I think I will love you to death." Annie glanced down seductively, making Li Zitao's saliva secrete faster.
Boom!
As the door slammed, there was a thin voice coming from the room, which soon turned into a long soprano, and the crisp "papapa..."
That is the encouragement from love, the calling of the heart...
Li Zitao didn't even have time to use his ultimate move, and Annie passed out.
Such an embarrassing reality made him dumbfounded, and in the end he had no choice but to run into the bathroom and use cold water to cool down the 'brain', otherwise the X bug would burn his brain.
In the early morning, Li Zitao closed the folder on the table, dressed neatly and went out. Ai Mo was waiting for him in the living room with a document in his arm.
"Boss, here is the information you want." Aimo handed over the document, which contained the information about Greta.
"En." Li Zitao took the document, nodded and said, "Annie, give her some resources, preferably the protagonist or the second female lead."
Li Zitao is a player who abides by the rules of the game. If the other party is willing to pay, he will give the other party a reasonable return.
He can't do that kind of trickery, it's too dirty.
Whether it is a scumbag or a gun king, this is the basic quality.
That's right, that's it!
Aimo put the business card on the table casually. As long as that woman is smart enough, she should know what DreamWorks stands for in Hollywood, and then someone will naturally arrange such a trivial matter.
Last night's Oscar Awards was very successful, and it also brought a huge harvest of contacts to DreamWorks. The eight major companies and countless independent producers exchanged business cards with Aimo.
The manager of MGM from the Los Angeles headquarters also welcomed the joining and founding of DreamWorks, which is a good start.
I believe that DreamWorks will be able to open up the situation soon, after all, they still have the line of United Artists.
Don't forget, Douglas still has 5% of the shares of DreamWorks in his hand.
Arranging a role is not a difficult problem even for DreamWorks, which is just starting up.
"Boss, you will have breakfast with Mr. Walter later, Miss Bergman's role is over, she will arrive in Los Angeles at 2 pm,
Governor Edward's banquet is scheduled for 6 p.m., and everything has been prepared at the Pummer Hotel. There will be Senator Disland, Mayor Carr, and Governor White of IL. "
"The new governor? Who invited him?" Li Zitao turned his head curiously.
"Jevich knows you're going to have a banquet in Los Angeles," Aymo said.
"Is there anyone else?" Li Zitao continued to walk towards the restaurant without denying it. Jevich was really considerate enough. It seemed that his relationship with the new governor was really unusual.
"Mr. Roosevelt, Governor of New York, will be in Los Angeles tonight, do you need to invite him?" Aymo asked.
"En?" Li Zitao stopped and frowned, considering the gains and losses.
Speaking of which, he has a good feeling for Roosevelt. Although he stood with the Kendy family last time, his position was very vague.
It is not something ordinary people can do to be the governor of New York with disabled legs. Don't forget that is New York.
"Make an invitation for me, just say that Charlie really wants to be friends with him." Li Zitao wanted to see if he would come tonight.
Bergman missed the Academy Awards because she received her first film in her life. Although it was only an insignificant supporting role, she took it very seriously.
Li Zitao doesn't like others to plan his life, as if he was willing to be a fat house in his previous life, that was his choice.
... Well, one must admit the helplessness in his heart and the cruelty of life.
Similarly, he would not plan the life of the victim, so he did not ask any more questions after confirming that he was accompanied by bodyguards.
"Let Bergman wait for me in Los Angeles, so you don't have to come here again." Holding two documents between them, Li Zitao walked towards Walter who got up with a bright smile.
"Charlie, last night's Oscar night was awesome, look!" After taking his seat, Walter handed him the newspaper at hand.
'Hollywood, Oscar night. ’ Li Zitao was very satisfied with the huge title.
"I'm just doing my part for the film, Walter, and congratulations to your Willie for winning the best animation award." Li Zitao said enthusiastically.
"Thank you." Walter's expression was a bit strange: "But you actually made it out of pure gold, which is really crazy. I think the safe will be out of stock recently."
"It's something to celebrate, isn't it?" Li Zitao said.
"Of course," Walter said.
He doesn't know the weight of the academy awards, but the Oscar statuettes that belong to him weigh 6 catties each, and the amount of gold used is 106 ounces. The cost alone is 2,650 dollars.
In addition to the craftsmanship and the gold content of the statuettes, the value of each statuette is no less than 3,000 US dollars, and there is no market for it.
The Oscars, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and the Starlight Foundation have all stated that no winners are allowed to sell their trophies.
If the winner's life is in trouble, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce can buy back the trophy at the market price of gold. With the growing influence of the Oscars, I believe no one will mess around.
As for situations such as being stolen, it cannot be avoided by manpower.
"Charlie, last time you said that you have your own understanding of cartoons, I am a little confused now, maybe I can get some new ideas from you."
A simple but hearty breakfast was served, and when only he and Walt were left, Walt explained the reason for the meeting.
"Maybe you should read this first." Li Zitao took out the document that made him struggle all night, with a mysterious smile on his face.
This is a fantasy world he created by spending hundreds of millions of brain cells after a night of hard work, and it is also a strong momentum that can promote the vigorous development of Disney.
"Oh my god." Walter's eyes widened as soon as he opened the cover, and his fingers quickly rubbed on the paper, and the pages of paper rolled like slides.
Countless lifelike cartoon characters were presented in front of him.
The Mermaid Princess, Snow White, The Ice Queen, Alice in Wonderland, Sleeping Beauty, Mickey's loyal friend Goofy, his playmate Pluto, female Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse.
Winnie the Pooh, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Cinderella, Peter Pan, Dalmatians, Up, Toys, Robot Story, Bugs Bunny, Aladdin.
