Hollywood Road

"Director Stanton, can you talk about how it feels to get the best director Oscar for the first time?"

In front of the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel, Murphy had just walked over the red carpet when a dozen reporters blocked him in the interview area, and various questions were thrown at him and Gal Gadot.

"Miss Gadot, are the social issues in the United States really like what you said in your acceptance speech?"

Both Murphy and Gal Gadot, who should be talking about, spoke in the backstage of the Oscars. They ignored these reporters at all. Under the support of the organizer’s staff, they went straight to the Hilton Hotel and came to the crowded number one. Inside the banquet hall.

This is the night of the Oscars, which is the party organized by Vanity Fair after the Oscars.

Because when I left the Dolby Theater, I was stopped by the reporter and delayed for a while. Murphy and Gal Gadot arrived late. At this time, there were a lot of people in the banquet hall, especially tonight. The winners were even more scrambling and celebrating wildly.

Murphy quickly found his table, took Gail Gadot and walked over. Robert Downey Jr., who won the best actor tonight, was playing with Margot Robbie, who was the frustrated. Drinking, there are already two glasses empty in front of the two of them.

"Our protagonist is here!"

Margot Robbie saw Gal Gadot and ignored Robert Downey Jr. and raised the cup toward Murphy. "For Murphy, cheers!"

"Good point!" Robert Downey Jr. also raised the glass in his hand, "We want to congratulate Murphy!"

The rest, such as Philip Raschel and Helena Espola, also stood up and toasted together, "Cheers!"

Murphy has ordered two glasses of wine from the waiter, first handed it to Gal Gadot, and then raised his own glass, "Guys, cheers!"

After drinking a glass of wine, Murphy's undissipated excitement was mobilized again, drinking and talking with Robert Downey Jr. and others. He worked hard for this moment for so long, and now is the time to enjoy.

It didn't take long to stay, because too many people came to congratulate Murphy, he drank a few more glasses, and already felt drunk.

"Let's go back," Gal Gadot suggested. "If you drink any more, you will be drunk."

"Yeah." Murphy nodded. He didn't want to lose his attitude in public, and beckoned to Robert Downey Jr., "You continue, I'll leave."

The two of them left the Hilton Hotel and went home directly.

It was a long night, and for many people, it was also a sleepless night. For example, for many entertainment reporters, Oscar was definitely the headline of all entertainment news the next day.

"The biggest surprise of the Oscar night, Murphy Stanton finished his ten-year run and captured the best director. "Diego Rose" won the best director, best film and best actor alone and became the biggest winner!"

"The Oscars came out unexpectedly last night. "The Artist" was upset and only won a few trivial technical awards, which was completely suppressed by "Diego Rose"!"

Even the leader of the newspaper industry in the United States, the entertainment pages of the three major newspapers are all about the news of this year's Oscars.

"Diego Rose" made the biggest accident of this year's Oscar. In the last three heavyweight awards, it defeated the previously recognized popular "Artist" and allowed Murphy Stanton to taste the best of the Oscars for the first time. The taste of the director, although Weinstein Pictures won a best actress statuette by Meryl Streep, the number of awards is far from the previous expectations. It can be called the most disappointed group of people last night! "

--"Washington post"

"When the young Murphy Stanton, the winner of the Best Director Award, took over the heavy figurine from Tom Cruise, the whole world held its breath. Although the young director and the youngest The record for best director passed by, but no one can deny his greatness. Hollywood has since entered the era of Murphy Stanton!"

-"Los Angeles Times"

"Diego Rose won the best actor, best director, and best picture in the four most important awards. This is a surprise, but it is also well-received. For the director Murphy Stanton personally In other words, this night is undoubtedly an'incredible night of ecstasy'. This is a great personal victory for Murphy Stanton and a victory for the youth reform of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences!"

--"New York Times"

As for the entertainment media, most of them also praised Murphy.

"There is no doubt that Murphy Stanton is becoming a master of film, a true master, and the means of expression that his lens language can provide is always the most talented and most exciting."

-"The Hollywood Reporter"

Of course, just like every Oscar in the past, the media is not without questioning voices, especially those tabloids, who like to create some topics at this time in order to attract people's attention.

"Shady! Murphy Stanton's award is full of shady scenes. The film "Diego Ross" is not as popular as "The Artist" in terms of artistic value and popularity. The three awards for Best Director and Best Picture are entirely the result of CAA and 20th Century Fox's operations. This is not a victory for the film, but just a successful PR!"

Although some aspects of the nonsense of this tabloid are closer to the truth, no one cares, including the frustrated Weinstein Pictures. After all, from the 1990s to the present, there was no success behind which Oscar winner was PR and operations?

There are many voices like this kind of doubt. Compared with other films, "Diego Rose" does not have many advantages, and it is not completely outstanding.

However, Murphy doesn't care about this. He won the best director Xiao Jinren and cannot be changed. Moreover, the mainstream media is basically a position of praise, and the tabloids can't make waves at all.

Another point is that these Oscar statuettes can completely change the situation of "Diego Rose" in the film market.

In any case, the influence of Oscars in North America and the world cannot be underestimated. The three heavyweight Oscar statuettes, Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Picture, can be directly transformed into Economic benefits.

Talking about money in front of the Oscars seems to be particularly vulgar, but look at the major Hollywood companies, especially the Weinstein Pictures and the Weinstein brothers, why are they competing for Oscars for art and glory?

I believe that any normal person can easily make a judgment.

The Oscar effect, the most direct feedback on the film "Diego Rose", is that the previous relatively general box office data has risen by a bit.

The film "Diego Rose" insisted that it has not been completely removed from the North American theaters. As the distributor, Twentieth Century Fox has made great efforts. Before the Oscars ceremony, the film only remained in North America. There are less than 400 theaters, and the filming rate is only a pitiful less than 3%. On the second day of the Oscars ceremony, "Diego Rose" following the expansion of the previous screenings, the North American theaters and The film arrangement rate has been greatly expanded once again. The number of theaters in North America has reached 2,200, and the film arrangement rate has increased to nearly 25%!

Most importantly, there are a considerable number of North American movie fans, influenced by the three heavyweight Oscar statuettes of Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Picture. Watching this film once made the single-day box office of less than 50,000 U.S. dollars more than 3 million U.S. dollars in one fell swoop, and in the following weekend, three consecutive days reported receipts of 5.54 million U.S. dollars, 6.46 million U.S. dollars and 5.1 million U.S. dollars, North America Receive another 17.1 million US dollars.

Coupled with the accumulation of previous working days, the North American box office of "Diego Rose" has slowly approached the $100 million mark!

In everyone's eyes, it is inevitable that the film's final North American box office will exceed 100 million US dollars.

At the same time, 20th Century Fox, after long-term restrictions on overseas releases, finally made "Diego Rose" appear in the most important ones in Europe, Latin America, and the Far East on the second day after the Oscars and before the following weekend. In the film market, although the film is restricted by its own genre, it is impossible to sweep the overseas market like a summer blockbuster, but there is an Oscar halo. In seven days, it has received nearly 40 million U.S. dollars from various overseas markets.

The global box office of "Diego Rose" finally surpassed 100 million U.S. dollars.

In addition, in those relatively small overseas markets, 20th Century Fox adopted the operating strategy of selling off the screening rights for "Diego Rose". As the best film of the Oscars, it is also easy to bid for the price, such as selling one. The market on the other side of the Pacific received a $5 million sell-out fee from the China Film Group.

Although this income is not particularly large, it is quite rare for such a type of film. If "Diego Rose" has not just won the best actor, best director, and best picture. The three heavyweight Oscar statuettes can't even sell one-third of the price. It is more likely that China Film Group will not even watch this film.

The future income of the film will increase over time, and the box office is only a part of the film’s income. Although many peripheral copyrights are still being negotiated, with the addition of the Oscar halo, the TV copyright of "Diego Rose" And Internet copyright and DVD sales will double or even more than the average niche movies.

Moreover, as long as the film’s North American box office crosses the $100 million threshold, the sales of peripheral rights can be increased again.

A week has passed since the Oscars ceremony, and media disturbances have gradually come to an end. Murphy has also ordered a showcase to place his Oscar figurines.

But who arrived at Wave Manor with the showcase, there is also bad news about Catholicism.
