"Zizzizi".

"I know, I know, Renly personally wants to be there too, but all the schedules have to be put on hold right now, Christopher's work is the number one priority, and he has to put his heart and soul into making it."

"Zizzizi."

"Ha, I also feel a little puzzled. It seems to be the case for the past few years. But... what can I say? It is always easy to have such accidents by coincidence. Hollywood is 365 days a year. Busy."

"Zizzizi."

"Not sure. That's all I can say right now. I'll try to make arrangements, I'm looking forward to seeing Renly on the red carpet at the Hilton, and I'm looking forward to seeing Renly in the Valley of Park City, but right now , my hands are tied, and I have no way of determining any itinerary. I promise, I will communicate with Christopher to see."

"Zizzizi."

"Of course! Of course! You don't need to wait for my call, I'll call as soon as possible. Phew, to be honest, I'm looking forward to it as much as you do. That's it for now, I'll talk about it next time!"

The first call finally ended, and Andy Rogers answered the second call immediately. There wasn't even a breathing space between the two calls, but it was still obvious that Andy's shoulders relaxed a little. After a while, the whole person slumped on the boss chair, and the beer belly suddenly became more and more obvious.

"Sorry... Renly, sorry." Andy answered just in time before Renly's call was about to go to voicemail, "I'm so sorry. I was just on the phone with theo-kingma, He's someone who refuses to compromise easily, there's no way to hang up the phone."

Theo Kimma is the current president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which hosts the annual Golden Globes.

"It shouldn't be surprising, shouldn't it? Otherwise, how could he be the chairman of the association?" Ren Li was always in a hurry and teased lightly.

Andy shrugged. "But I strongly doubt he'll be re-elected."

"Is it going to change again?" Ren Li was slightly surprised, "If I remember correctly, didn't he just come up last year?"

"Yes, but the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is elected every two years." Andy explained, "In recent years, the overall momentum and situation of the Golden Globes have always been in a state of confusion, not only in terms of ratings, but also in performances. Guests, media publicity, Internet hotspots, etc. all failed to restore the downward momentum, and then the members of the association always felt that changing a chairman would solve the problem.”

"Ha. Can't blame them, the democratic electoral system is such a system. But I'm more curious that this kind of internal struggle in the association has more impact, isn't it?" Renly felt that this matter itself was very important. Fun, more fun than the entertainment effect of the Golden Globes.

Andy nodded affirmatively, "Indeed. They are not paying attention to business at all now, and the internal struggle has taken up all their energy, and then every year the awards ceremony will stimulate the audience by creating gimmicks and tricks, but two years One electoral change will be turbulent again, overturning all the previous things."

Renly pursed his lips, but he didn't find it strange at all. Not only the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, but other major awards ceremonies or film festivals are also facing more or less the same situation - for example, the Venice Film Festival is a typical representative , this is the inevitable trend of Vanity Fair.

It's just that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is more special. They are nominally a non-profit organization and receive gifts and donations every year, but in fact, their members are not practitioners in the press, and members only need to publish four articles a year. A paid article will suffice.

Many members were journalists, editors or film critics before joining the association, but after joining the association, they all switched jobs to become photographers, "because photographers make more money." But more members are idle workers who receive pensions and do not rely on news As for the four articles per year, they only occasionally write for the little-known overseas publishers, and they can meet the requirements.

Now the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association are very diverse, including education, real estate, automobile industry and so on.

So how does the Hollywood Foreign Press Association work? This is a very large, complex and very complicated system. To sum it up in relatively simple and straightforward words: the academy public relations during the awards season.

The fixed members of the entire association remain at around 90 members, who join the association by recommendation and have one-vote veto power, which also makes the positions of all members relatively stable, almost equivalent to lifetime membership; but these 90 members have a huge number of members. Their careers themselves are similar to lobbyists in Washington, wandering among major associations, companies, parties, and gatherings, making full use of the network of interests during the awards season and mediating them.

Why can the Golden Globes be called the "Oscar vane"? That is because these 90 members know the inside information of the Hollywood Academy members very well, and they can often make judgments and decisions in advance according to the wind direction.

In addition, why is the Golden Globe always notorious, and the name of "entertainment to death" is also closely followed? That's because during the 1970s and 1980s, members were willing to accept small material favors to influence the direction of the awards -- for example, throw a party in Las Vegas, invite some members to attend, and then win a prize. Golden Globe trophy.

Although this ethos has now disappeared, the simple and crude camera obscura

The operation is no longer effective; but the members of the association can still freely roam the major parties of the awards season, affecting the direction of the Oscar trophy.

About the ins and outs of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the Golden Globe Awards, even if it takes a whole book to tell the story, it is certain that the far-reaching influence of the awards season and the ability to distribute benefits are the basis for the survival of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. important weight, naturally, the internal power struggle will be more intense.

Nevertheless, the professional critic of "The Hollywood Reporter" once still expressed this view, "Although the group of judges at the Golden Globe Awards are basically all idiots, they are always better than the group of self-righteous and high-level guys at the Oscars. Tasteful."

Not to mention what the Hollywood power distribution behind such a view means, but it can be seen from the side that the "entertainment first" style of the Golden Globe Awards has never changed. As for the grievances between the Golden Globes and the Oscars, that's another story.

"It's the same this year. Do you know why Theo called me?" Andy was relieved, and even started chatting with Renly.

Renly didn't speak.

Andy laughed dumbly, "I know I know, you're not interested, but can't you cooperate? Theo made a special call to invite you to attend this year's Golden Globe Awards."

That's Theo Kimma's strategy.

As the most top and most popular actor in the world today, Renly has been absent from the Golden Globes for two consecutive years; more importantly, there is still no Golden Globe trophy in Renly's award record book. It was a bit of a fantasy—so embarrassing for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association itself, because Renly never seemed to care about it.

If Theo can invite Renly to return to the Ballon d'Or - the only time he was there when he appeared in public in his first year, then Theo There will be more confidence in next year's re-election in June.

But this year's timing is really delicate.

Paul just had an accident and survived; the shooting of "Interstellar" is also in full swing. By all accounts, Renly doesn't seem in the mood to attend the Golden Globes.

So, Theo came to the side through Andy, and began to pave the way for the awards ceremony early.

"My presence is not a panacea for saving ratings. I'm not Woody Allen. No audience will turn to watch the Golden Globes because I'm in the camera for a few seconds." Renly remained clear. The issues of mind, ratings and topicality are mainly inevitable after the birth of online streaming media. The entire TV field is being challenged, and naturally it is not a problem that can be solved by Renly.

Andy chuckled, "He doesn't need you to solve the problem, he just needs a little topic effect to show his great achievements."

Renly nodded lightly, "Looks like I'm a trophy now too."

"trophy-wife", which can be translated as "trophy wife", but derived from the meaning of "vase wife"; and also the meaning of the trophy itself. With Renly using such a metaphor here, the meaning of double taunt couldn't be more obvious.

"Theo is worried now that you are at Sundance like the year before, but missing the Golden Globes, which is really unacceptable for them." Andy added.

"Ha." Renly chuckled. "Did you tell him that I haven't decided whether to attend Sundance or not?"

"Of course, I have already said so. But according to industry rumors, the Coen brothers have sent an invitation, and you must be willing to give them face." Andy said bluntly.

From "The Cancer-fighting Me" to "Transcendence", from Jake Gyllenhaal to Natalie Portman, from Warner Bros. to Universal Pictures, and this time to Paul Walker, Renly is about friendship It's no secret long ago, everyone can feel it, Renly is a very, very friendly person.

Of course, it is not easy to become a friend of Renly. The cold and arrogant aura of hereditary aristocracy is enough to keep countless people away; what's more, how many people who are close to Renly with a purpose? success? It also made Renly's friendship all the more precious.

Renly shrugged. "If I say no, I'm sure Joel and Ethan will understand."

"But the question is, will you refuse?" Andy asked again.
