Entertainment: Start with Succubus and play Hollywood

Now that he already knows the standard answer, Martin will naturally not blindly follow the trend and talk about the main battle.

He considered it carefully and said:"I support the fight against terrorists, but for this war, I think it is meaningless."

"We cannot end the war as quickly as the White House said. The Goros people on the border with Afuhan did not do it. How can we, across the Pacific Ocean, do it?"

"This war will be like a black hole, crazily devouring the financial, material and human resources of the United States."

"Mr. Martin, do you mean that you disagree with the White House's decision? So what do you think should be done to win the war on terror?"The host may be a militant, or he wants to cause trouble deliberately, so he asked again.

Martin glanced at her and said with a smile:"I am just an ordinary American now. This question will be answered after I become the President of the United States. Let me tell you again!"

Martin's humorous answer aroused laughter.

After answering this question, Martin no longer stayed and walked into the venue of the Chinese Grand Theater in Hollywood.

A fat man immediately greeted him

"Haha, Martin, you finally showed up. Have you seen the final film, what do you think?"

"Of course I've seen it, Peter, and I have to say... you did a great job, and I'm extremely sure that after this series, you will become a major Hollywood director. Peter

Jackson laughed enthusiastically,"Really, I will be more confident if I can get your approval!""

《"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" was released in North America on December 19th, which seemed a little rushed. In fact, next year's summer vacation is a better choice.

But Peter Jackson can't wait, Warner Bros. can't wait, and Martin can't wait.

And all of them are very confident about the film.

The Christmas season is also very good.

Moreover, when it is released at this time, it can still catch up with the Oscars in March next year. Peter Jackson really hopes to gain something at the Oscars and become the second James Cameron.

To be honest, the night before the movie was released, he also took out the video tape of the 70th Oscar and played it - repeatedly watching the scene of James Cameron holding up the statuette and shouting"I am the king of the world". Watch My face turned red and my ears turned red. It was more exciting than watching a short movie.

Really, I wish I couldn’t replace it with my own body.

But Martin knew that"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" would only get a bunch of nominations and a few unimportant technical awards, and Peter would be disappointed.

The Oscars have not been kind to the New Zealand director.

Peter Jackson chatted with Martin

"By the way, Martin, I heard that you have reached a new agreement on the copyright of"The Lord of the Rings" with the organization that holds the copyright of Tolkien's works."

"Yeah, mostly for the sake of the sequel, I didn't want to leave a nuisance that others could take advantage of."

It is said that it is for the sequel, but in fact, Martin is trying to prevent the troubles in the original timeline from appearing.

No matter what it is, no one cares about it when it is unknown, and once it becomes popular, trouble will follow.

The original timeline After the movie became a hit, the Tolkien Estate sued Warner Bros. on behalf of Tolkien's descendants for additional infringement of the copyright to"The Lord of the Rings." The lawsuit lasted for nearly five years. The cause of the lawsuit was that Tolkien Later, people believed that Warner had violated the contract signed by the two parties as early as 1969 and illegally used the image of"Lord of the Rings" in games and advertising programs other than movies. On this grounds, it sued Warner for US$80 million. Warner claimed that it had paid millions of dollars in additional royalties to Tolkien's descendants, so it did not admit fault and filed a counterclaim against the plaintiff.

In the end, after five years of wrangling, Warner paid an additional sum money, and reached a settlement with the Tolkien Heritage Foundation, but the specific terms and amount were not disclosed to the public.

Martin did not want to leave this trouble, so he found the Tolkien Heritage Foundation before the movie was released and re-signed the contract— —The contract details the"Lord of the Rings" sequel."、""Derivative products" and other ownership issues blocked the possibility of the other party opening up after the film became a hit. Peter

Jackson didn't think so much about it, and focused directly on what Martin said was a"sequel.""superior

"sequel? What are you going to shoot?"

"I haven’t thought about it yet, but it should be mainly from the perspective of the Hobbit, and it may be a prequel."

"Prequel, the adventures of Frodo's uncle Bilbo Baggins?"

"Yes, that's the thinking for the time being. Peter Jackson stroked his beard and said:"

Actually, I think that instead of making a sequel to"The Hobbit", it is better to make a sequel to"The Prince of the Elves". You must know that Legolas is very popular." Martin shook his head and said with a smile:"I have had this idea, but Legolas' plot in the original work is too small, and there is not so much to film!""

"In fact, this would allow us to express ourselves freely. Peter Jackson thought this was a good thing.

Martin said:"I'll think about it again!""

After finishing the conversation with Peter Jackson, Martin walked towards Liv Tyler with a wine glass in hand. People kept saying hello to him along the way - old friends and new friends.

"Hello Director Ridley Scott, when is your Black Hawk Down coming out?"

"Next February? Okay, okay, I will go to the premiere."

"Mr. Robert Zemeckis, I love your Back to the Future series. Oh, and"Forrest Gump", it's really a classic"

"Russell (Russell Crowe), long time no see. Will your and Ron Howard's new film"A Beautiful Mind" be released the day after tomorrow?"

"Then it looks like we have to have a fight (referring to the movie)."

Russell Crowe and Martin have met many times. Nicole Kidman has long introduced this little brother to the Australian gang.

The two are familiar with each other, so there is no scruple in talking.

Russell Crowe joked:"A fight? That won't work! I can't be a match for the American hero. I watched the video of you dealing with bank robbers, and your skills were great."

After chatting all the way, Martin came to Liv Tyler.

The elf princess was chatting with a woman with a sweet appearance and a good figure.

Is it Jennifer Aniston? Why is she here too?

"Hello, Miss Aniston. Martin said hello politely.

Seeing Martin coming, Jennifer Aniston said hello tactfully and left.

Martin asked curiously:"Do you know each other?" What were you talking about just now?"

"I've met him a few times, but I'm not familiar with him."Liv Tyler said,"I feel like her target is not me, but you. Martin was stunned,"

Then why did she leave?""

Liv Tyler laughed and said:"It's a little trick of playing hard to get."(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
