The 29th Toronto International Film Festival came to an end. The two films exhibited by Embassy Film and Television were in a state of great magnitude.

Due to the influence of adverse factors such as limited audience, slow and dull rhythm and German films, "Epitaped Storm" did not continue the momentum of frantically winning trophys in Europe, and the response was mediocre during the entire film festival.

North America, the largest insulator in the world's television and film markets, is still stubborn like a stone.

In contrast, "When Happiness Comes Knocks the Door", a native North American movie, caused a sensation during the film festival, Will Smith is a bug-level existence in the film market of this era. His absolute identity as a male lead is also the key to attracting audiences.

A chicken soup movie like this may appear again in more than ten years. It may be another kind of evaluation and impression, but now it is a good review.

"When Happiness Comes Knocks" won the last few days, surpassing the previous leading "Rwanda Hotel". With a slight advantage, it won the most substantial audience choice award at the Toronto Film Festival.

This also shows one thing. Even though I have been poured with countless chicken soup over the years, the audience is not yet ready to burst into pieces.

At present, chicken soup and chicken soup movies are very marketable all over the world.

Ronan also soaked in various chicken soups.

For example, Washington's cherry-falling axe, Edison's small bench, Leonardo da Vinci's eggs, Einstein's mathematics, etc.

If you drink too much chicken soup, you will have a certain degree of immunity.

What really made Ronan determine that chicken soup was poisonous was the recruitment experience of college roommates.

The classmate bought countless books on success and believed in the famous "paper picking ball" recruitment until he hit his head and was bleeding.

I remember that in the six months before graduation, my roommates, like most of my classmates who were about to enter society, sent their resumes and interviewed many companies, including some famous companies.

According to the roommate, every time he goes to an interview, he pays great attention to details. He picks up garbage on the ground, picks up paper balls, and even when he sees the chairs messy, he will help others to arrange them neatly.

With the famous case of "picking up paper balls", a company should have long since extended an olive branch to make him a winner in life.

But the reality is that all interviews are completely uninformed.

When I graduated, I drank together, and my roommate finally realized that I was so stupid.

In fact, it is not difficult for people with work experience to find that any more reliable company or company would not recruit people in this inequality way.

"When Happiness Comes Knocks" won the Audience Choice Award, which also added another weight to the Hollywood awards season awards that will be opened.

Before and during the awards season, the more awards a film wins, the greater the chance of winning the Oscars in the end.

Because awards are basically directly related to exposure.

There are too many judges who will not go to watch movies at all, and the popularity of the film will play a key role.

This film will be released in December. Due to its strong commercial attributes and the existence of Will Smith, an unsolvable market weapon, "When Happiness Comes Knocks" will not be previewed, but will be released directly on a large scale.

The premise of winning the award is to ensure the commercial benefits of the film first.

The "Crash" that just won and the "Eavesdropping Storm" that swept through major awards in Europe will start previewing in a small scale in December. It will really make efforts in the market until the Oscar nomination is announced.

These two films will be distributed and operated in the traditional Oscar-winning way.

In addition, Allen Albert bought the copyright "The Diary of the Emperor Penguin" from Paris, France, and a total of four films have formed this year's Olympic troupe for Relativity Entertainment.

Of course, the goals are also different, namely the Best Actor in "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door", the Best Picture of "Crashing", the Best Foreign Language Film of "Eavesdropping Storm", and the Best Documentary Feature Film of "The Diary of the Emperor Penguin".

Among the four goals, being able to win any Oscar-like little gold man can be said to be a victory.

After returning to Los Angeles, Ronan met Paul Haggis in person and received another important news from him.

As a screenwriter, Paul Haggis created the script for the new film "Million Dollar Baby" by the old cowboy Clint Eastwood. The heroine of "Million Dollar Baby" is the famous Hollywood tomboy Hillary Swank.

The film will be premiered in December, with the goal of Oscars.

Ronan remembers that "Million Dollar Baby" won Clint Eastwood for Best Director, and Hillary Swank was the second best actress.

This opponent is very powerful.

Afterwards, Ronan specifically asked Connie to check the relevant information about "Million Dollar Baby".

Warner Bros. is produced and released by Clint Eastwood. The heroine is the famous acting player Hillary Swank, and the supporting actor is the veteran black movie star Morgan Freeman. The picture style full of nostalgic texture in the 1960s and 1970s...

This is simply a work tailored by Clint Eastwood for the Oscars.

Unlike "The Aviator" and Martin Scorsese on Miramax Pictures, Clint Eastwood has always been the darling of the Oscars.

Martin Scorsese is still struggling for the first Oscar in his life. He did not hesitate to change the style of filming and created a "Flyer" which is very different from the gangster theme. However, Clint Eastwood is already winning the award and is almost ruthless.

Judging from the experience of Old Martin, Ronan thinks Will Smith is also very dangerous.

Oscars are always like this. If you don’t like you, it won’t be a big deal if you don’t suppress you for twenty years.

Having said that, how many years have Leonardo been suppressed? Until he completely ruined himself...

Ronan talked specifically about this with Will Smith.

"It's an opportunity after all, and I can't give up." Will Smith could see through it: "If you work hard, you won't regret it in the future."

Ronan nodded: "The Embassy Film will vigorously promote this video."

The film has not been released in North America yet, so the promotional investment will definitely be huge, and Will Smith is also worth the investment.

Will Smith said deliberately: "I am so likable, no one will hate me, right?"

"It's a pity that there are too few women among the Oscar judges." Ronan laughed: "Otherwise you can convince them one by one."

Will Smith shrugged: "I don't want to be tortured to death."

However, Ronan said: "When the awards season begins, you may encounter such unsubstantiated requirements."

Some philatelic hobbies such as veteran actresses or producers have not disappeared as they faded out of the audience and the media. These people have compiled a huge network of personal connections over the years, which may have been forgotten in normal times, but in the awards season, using the identity of veteran Oscar judges can often do a lot.

Receiving gifts is just the most basic small operation, and it is not rare to require certain services from the winners who are interested in.

This is the case with the entire Hollywood environment. Later, when the Mitu movement flourished, some media also exposed relevant news that many older actresses had the experience of old ox forcibly eating young grass.

This even includes several female initiators and leaders of the Mitu movement.

As for whether the young and handsome guys they convinced were voluntarily, it was a mess.

"I am a gentleman." Will Smith said confidently with a righteous look on his face: "No matter what kind of unscrupulous requests, I will refuse."

Ronan continued: "I heard that the college plans to invite a group of people outside the circle to enter the college and become Oscar judges to increase the diversity of the college members. Maybe the Williams sisters will become Oscar judges one day."

Will Smith said firmly: "Then I will refuse! Ronan, to be honest, my waist... can't be hurt!"

Ronan patted Will Smith's arm and felt very sympathetic: "Cherish life and stay away from female athletes."

It is said that people who engage in professional sports have far more hormone secretion than ordinary people. Regardless of men and women, the demand for that aspect is particularly strong.

People who rely on their bodies to make their meals often look for people who rely on their bodies to make their meals as their companions.

Will Smith suddenly asked, "Don't you find a fixed one?"

Ronan told the truth: "There is no such plan for the time being."

"That little girl...the blonde girl who often works with you." Will Smith asked, "She seems to have a good impression of you."

Ronan could guess who he was talking about: "You are talking about Amanda? This is different. I knew her when she was still a little kid. I was so familiar with her."

"If you are familiar with each other, you can trust each other more." Will Smith said with all the wrong reasons: "The little girl admires you very much, it is easy to coax you, and it will not affect your daily search for prey."

Ronan shook his head: "Tom didn't even look for a girlfriend, I'm not in a hurry."

Will Smith coughed and said, "Tom has dedicated his life to the church. Maybe he will board the ship and leave the earth at any time, so there is no need."

Ronan almost laughed: "I heard that Tom's status in the church has reached another level?"

"Yes," said Will Smith. "He is already at the second highest level in the science church. I wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly becomes the leader one day."

Luo Nan nodded slightly: "I'm afraid I'm still waiting for another ten or twenty years."

"It's okay," Will Smith said. "Tom is younger than other senior executives in Science and can endure them to death."

Ronan brought back the wrong topic: "How much do you plan to invest in this prize?"

Will Smith is very sober: "I personally invested $6 million. If this cannot win the award, then forget it."

Ronan agrees with this view: "Will, you are already one of Hollywood's top stars, and the Oscars are just the icing on the cake for you."
