- "Letters from Iwo Jima" won best foreign language film, and Eastwood and Spielberg took the stage to accept the award together.
The best original score belongs to "The Lovely Bones"! Jenn Kezmelik won the Ballon d'Or for the first time (1/2). The haul delighted supporters and sent the girls into jubilation. But everyone wants to see Ye Wei appear on stage again, or which future girl will appear.
But the Best Director Award was not an upset. In fact, fans knew the result as soon as Spielberg presented the award to Martin Scorsese. Everyone in the camera was happy for Old Martin, and Ye Wei also clapped and shouted. If there is no hope, there will be no disappointment.
Sacha Baron Cohen was crowned Best Actor in the Musical/Comedy category for "Borat" and "Dreamgirls" won Best Picture in the Musical/Comedy category. When Philip Hoffman appeared to present the award for Best Actress in a Drama Series, a tense atmosphere enveloped the banquet hall. Will she be the "queen" or the future girl?
Nor was it an upset, the powerful Helen Mirren was awarded the Golden Globe Best Actress for "The Queen"! All the guests cheered, and Mirren said in her speech: "Thank you to a woman named Elizabeth. This award should belong to her, because I feel that you love her and not me."
Ye Wei used this to make a joke on Liz next to her: "She is thanking you." Liz, who is of Norwegian origin, would not have any respect for the Queen of England: "She said that, I am really embarrassed."
Forest Whitaker of "The Last Man" won the Best Actor in a Drama Series. There is little suspense about the Best Actor and Best Actress at this Oscar.
At the end of the awards banquet, California Governor and action star Arnold Schwarzenegger took the stage on crutches to award the best film in the drama category. This award is the most suspenseful. The results of each preliminary battle are very clear. "The Departed", "Winter's Bone", "Tower of Babel"?
Schwarzenegger read in his gravelly voice: "Tower of Babel."
All winners are born! "Dreamgirls" took home three trophies, and all the other films took one each. The one for "Babel" is undoubtedly the most important. The banquet hall was in an uproar. I?¨¢rritu, Pitt, Jolie, Blanchett and other "Babel" cast members were really excited, and other guests applauded and cheered.
"You know, the most important thing in life is to be happy (the-key-to-life-is-carpe-diem)." Ye Wei comforted the girls, who all nodded and lived in the moment!
He added: "We are all still young and there are many opportunities." Liz asked: "But you are going to play football." He shrugged: "I will always make movies. Are you hungry?" Liz responded: "I'm hungry." He took an uneaten small cake and handed it to her: "I'll give this to you." Liz happily took it and wanted to eat it. Jennifer was a little jealous: "Man, I lost too." Alicia shouted: "And me." Ronan did not participate.
"She has a bigger stomach and gets hungry easily, but you are different." Ye Wei said.
"Like Godzilla." Liz nodded repeatedly and ate half of the small cake in one bite.

This year¡¯s Golden Globe Awards has come to an end, and there has been a lot of news about backstage interviews and photography, charity events and many celebration parties.
The Wei secretaries are making noises, this time Ye Wei and ten future girls took a group photo together! They were all smiling around him, who was holding the trophy, fighting for his trophy, and taking turns to lift the trophy Ye Wei also took photos with Old Martin, Old Si, Eastwood and other elderly people, and even hugged him. Rip kissed her cheek and smiled broadly.
This bad boy attended several celebration parties, but the media said he left early. Where was he going? There was no need for paparazzi this time. That night, Ye Wei posted a selfie of him and Lily on his Facebook with their smiling faces, still wearing that suit. "It's all about your smile," the blog post read.
According to a preliminary survey report by Nielsen on the 16th, the ceremony on the night of the 15th attracted an average of 22 million American viewers, making it the most watched program in the United States that night. When Ye Wei took the stage to receive the award, it was one of the peaks, with about 26 million viewers watching. Golden Globe ratings rebounded slightly for the second consecutive year.
The media have conducted dress selections. The worst-dressed award in "People" went to Cameron Diaz because "her lips were painted too red and did not match the princess white dress at all." The best-dressed award went to Jennifer -Lawrence, "The off-white dress perfectly releases her elegant and glamorous side."
Lawrence was praised to the heavens by many media, but Olson was not as good as her youth and beauty. Rachel Zoe and her army of girls steal the show!
The excitement of the Golden Globe Awards has boosted the popularity of many major films, which is reflected in the box office charts for the week of January 12-18.
This week's champion is the new song and dance film "Dreamboy", the runner-up "Dreamgirls" continues to be strong, and the seventh place is last year's Sundance film "Leader". Universal bought it for a year and finally released it. 1,289 theaters received it in the first week 8.79 million, this can only be a loss but a gain. Timberlake's performance in the film was praised, several sexy girls are also quite eye-catching, including Amanda Seyfried and Amber Heard. Her old scandal with Ye Wei was mentioned by the gossip media again.
In the 10th week, tlb received 1,465,794 in 363 theaters, and the total box office rose to 140,394,611. The box office of Winter's Bone in the fifth week was steady, with an average of 18,132 per room in 105 theaters, taking in 1,903,860, with the total box office rising to 6,662,894. It will be expanded to 308 next week to prepare for the announcement of Oscar nominations. week.

Ye Wei¡¯s life is very happy. The hustle and bustle of the awards season is not the focus of his life, happiness is!
The sunshine of love shines every day, I have special football training in the afternoon, and I take a break from my busy schedule to practice skydiving. In the past two months, I have practiced from level-1 to the ultimate level-7, solo free skydiving. It was the first time I jumped out of an airplane alone in the sky, a feeling of freedom. The establishment of the Potpass network is progressing very quickly. On Friday the 19th, the three brothers signed multiple contracts at Salton's lawyer's office and registered a new IT company, Spotpass. He invested US$500,000 in founding capital, accounting for 50% of the shares, and served as chairman; Chen Nuo 30%, technical director, responsible for quickly writing the website; Lev 20%, CEO, responsible for running the company, setting up a headquarters, and recruiting Employees and stuff.
They are very motivated. Although this thing will definitely not make money in the short term, this is a long-term project. Make it successful first. Whether they should find angel funds in the future, develop it themselves or sell it to Microsoft or Google at a high price is another matter. What attracts them most now is the significance of online crowdfunding.
In fact, this is to put crowdfunding on the Internet, and there are traces of how to do it. The website's legal affairs are all cooperating with lawyer Salton. This old boy has already moved to a large office in a high-end office building. It is spacious, bright and has several assistants.
Ye Wei was as casual there as he was in the bathroom at home, because he was the lawyer's largest and most core client.
This website is a big deal. If successful, how many matters will Lawyer Salton handle and take over? The law office is not far away.
Because there are only a lot more legal documents for financing and investment generated by online crowdfunding, when it comes to the production of independent films, all contracts under the Film and Television Entertainment Law must be signed, such as the most commonly used and must-have "Receipt Account Management Contract" ¡·(collection-account-management-agreement).
This contract is to regulate film investors and producers to manage and protect their investment in films according to the contract. It is as follows:
¡¾"project-name"
This-agreement(¡°agreement¡±)is-made-on_______and-has-effect-as-of-the_____day-of_______(¡°effective-date¡±)between:
1.collection-account-management-pany
2.producer
3.sales-agent
4.financier
5.i female estors
6.talent
? 7pletion-guarantor everally-and-collectively-the ¡°party¡± or ¡°parties¡±
¡¡]
¡¾"Project Name"
This contract (this "Contract") was signed on ____ month ____, year ____, and will come into effect on ____ month ____, year ____ (the "Effectiveness Date"). The contracting parties are as follows :
1. Collection account management company
2.Producer
3. Sales agent
4. Financing lender
5. Investors
6.Artist
7. Film completion guarantee company
The above parties are individually referred to as "one party" or "the party", and collectively are referred to as the "parties" or "seven parties".
¡¡]
Then what? Explain that all ambiguities have been determined, and then there are ten items agreed by all parties: 1. Definition; 2. Collection management company, collection accounts and responsibilities; 3. Reporting, payment, accounting and auditing matters; 4. Total collection received Transfer of accounts; 5. General terms; 6. Arbitration; 7. Termination; 8. Notices, statements and payment of proceeds; 9. Signatories and partners; 10. Governing law.
These are general basic terms, and lawyers will make adjustments and modifications based on the specific circumstances of each project.
This thick stack of contracts and attachments ensures that investors have the ability to control some investment risks without understanding the film industry. Maybe something like "Wedding Day" will happen, but at least we can see a completed film without the project being aborted or someone taking the money and leaving.
The two most fatal risks are that the completion guarantee company is keeping an eye on the former. Most independent projects require a "Completion Guarantee Contract". Otherwise, the funds you raise may not enter the collection account, and this supervision makes it difficult to If the project financier or producer is stupid, the project will be taken away immediately. For the latter, the collection account management company is keeping an eye on it. Not all the money will go to the producer at once. It must be clear when and how each payment will be used, and whether all parties agree that there will be no conflict. Management.The company just called.
"The "Receipt Account Management Contract" is just a small speck in the contracts used in the film and television entertainment industry. Ye Wei doesn't want to deal with those things. It gives him a headache just looking at it. I believe that the same goes for ordinary investors. But the website needs to do these things well and inform each user well, so that they understand that the money invested will not be easily taken by anyone to go to Las Vegas and have fun. Only with trust can online crowdfunding work.
Maybe this is because of "different national conditions." Ye Wei doesn't know what the laws and environment are for filmmaking in China, so he won't comment, but he has always heard about its censorship system, which targets both domestically produced films and imported foreign films in China.
This won¡¯t work, and that won¡¯t work either. Censorship undoubtedly strangles the creator¡¯s neck when it comes to creation, making it difficult to breathe smoothly.
¡°However, as a weak and immature market, he feels that appropriate government review and restrictions are necessary, which can effectively resist the invasion of some ideologies and the import of foreign cultures. The question is brutal and simple, either resist or be taken over by Hollywood.
Of course he doesn¡¯t want the latter to happen. In an interview with Chinese media, he also said that ¡°filmmakers should not use censorship as the reason for their failure.¡± Who makes movies with complete freedom? Neither Pokora nor "The Godfather." All kinds of restrictions not only come from government censorship. Even if you are strangled by a whip, finding other ways to tell good stories is the attitude that a creator should have. You have to resist and fight for it, but how can you say "I can't make a good movie" All because of censorship¡±? That's pure lai.
The state of the film industry consists of many aspects, including the professional level of practitioners in each department, the level of investors, distribution of power, creative attitudes, audience needs, internal cultural heritage, brokerage, management, law, distribution, media, etc. etc., and of course, the cinephile's love for movies.
A place with a large number of cinephile filmmakers, producers, directors, screenwriters, actors, photographers, lighting, art, editors, sound effects, soundtracks, visual effects and a large number of cinephile audiences cannot escape because of censorship. Good movie.
but¡¡
Ye Wei has recently suffered from China¡¯s censorship system. He has always hoped that his films could be introduced to the mainland market, and distributors have been talking about it. But "Wedding Day is Coming" has gods and cannot be introduced; "Exorcism Video" has ghosts and cannot be introduced; "Little Miss Sunshine" has "non-negative drug addicts" and cannot be introduced.
All right! He can accept it, the national conditions are different. Recently, tlb and ss have begun to enter overseas markets, and both performed well and did not disappoint. The latest blockbusters such as "Happy Feet" and "Casino Royale" have entered the mainland. He is looking forward to seeing one of the Girls Trilogy with his eyes wide open, right?
There are gods and ghosts in "The Lovely Bones" and they cannot be introduced! It was released in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but fortunately it was not translated into "The Story of a Kiss" and "The Bones of the Ghost".
"Soul Surfer" contains religious indoctrination, which may restrict the will of minors and cannot be introduced
Ye Wei criticized this. It is true that Bethany is a devout Christian, but ss is not just a Christian movie! Well, at least that makes sense. What happened to Tam's "Winter's Bone"? This truly reflects that America is not a paradise!
Weinstein and China Film are also full of confidence. The leaders' opinions are that it can be introduced, but some drug-taking scenes must be deleted, such as Rui being beaten, Rui following the old women to saw off their hands and other violent scenes. This happened last month. Although he was speechless, he agreed to let the leaders cut it and read it. When he cut the DVD that was sent back this month, he was so angry that he cursed. Almost the entire section had been deleted. How could he still play it? Shit!
"Fuck you!" Ye Wei told Harvey Weinstein, "I won't agree to such cuts. No need to talk about it. I won't sell the copyright. You can go do other things."
¡°In this way, he will continue to maintain the record of no movie being released in mainland China.
He thought, censorship is not about censorship, but how to censor.
The saddest thing is that we have failed to live up to the expectations of mainland movie fans. I seem to hear them saying, "Three years, three years and three years, three years and three years, ten years will come, Brother Wei!" Those paragraphs It really can't be deleted, but there is no grading system in the mainland, so there is really nothing we can do about it.
Ye Wei announced on his Sina blog: "It's a pity that the Girls Trilogy can no longer be seen with everyone. The two films are not in compliance with the policy, and "Winter's Bone" was asked to delete several key paragraphs. In that case, the entire film will be lost. Soul. Find your own way to see it." Yes, he was referring to piracy.
As soon as the article was published, he saw that it soon caused Chinese netizens to curse the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. The media would definitely report it, and he would not be responsible for it.
Despite this, he has no zero relationship with the mainland. In fact, there are some activities planned in his schedule, related to charity, movies, etc.Served as a guest in the "Film Master Class".
The MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) has done and done a lot of cheap things, such as ratings and bragging about the value of its existence by combating global piracy but has achieved nothing. But it is not that it does not do good deeds at all. On the contrary, it will do some "good-will-building-and-pay-forward", do good deeds without reward, and make constructive investments.
This is necessary to develop a market, especially a potentially huge market like mainland China that has introduced quota restrictions and censorship. Hollywood's strategy is to support the development of China's film market and the growth of Chinese filmmakers, then open branches in the Asia-Pacific, adopt co-production methods, and use local talents to make local movies to earn local money.
The film master classes co-organized by mpaa overseas with institutions in other countries are one of them. Big figures in various fields of the American film industry are invited to give lectures to local students and teach them how to make better movies. Last year in 2006, mpaa and the China State Administration of Radio, Film and Television jointly organized the first seminar held in the mainland, which was divided into two classes: producer and screenwriter.
Among them, Xue Xiaolu from the screenwriting seminar won first place in the proposal competition. The prize was to take her screenwriting work to the six major Hollywood studios to propose her project to the production department. But in the end, the project was not successfully approved. It was too difficult. There were too many scripts waiting to be filmed in Hollywood.
It was just an experience, but after Xue Xiaolu had such a journey, I believe she gained a lot of new understanding of everything about the movie.
?? Developing the Chinese market is Hollywood¡¯s top priority, so the film master class will continue to be held this year.
Ye Wei received a guest invitation from MPAA, and he agreed. He witnessed the development of Korean movies with his own eyes. The Korean approach is simple, direct and effective. They send a large number of filmmakers to Hollywood to learn, learn and learn. Then these people go back to make movies about Korean society and culture, and in turn bring Hollywood teams to South Korea.
He thinks China can do it too. However, all immature markets, especially those that grow by leaps and bounds, will definitely go through a stage of chaos.
Susan Sontag said in her "The Decline of Cinema" that the end of cinephilia has led to the decline of audience quality, and the low audience demand has led to the decline of film quality. What about the Chinese market? The audience hasn't seen a few movies yesterday, but today there are movies everywhere. Who can tell me, what is a movie? What variety show?
What will happen to a huge market with few cinephiles?
Of course, there are all kinds of chaos. The audience will be lured into the cinema by various gimmicks, fan orientation, emotional orientation, and various commercial marketing. But those are bad movies, and the negative emotions will grow day by day until they are exhausted. Movies are trash. If you don¡¯t want to watch them, turn to other entertainment consumption. The film market has fallen into a trough, and the rise in audience demand has forced the quality of films to rise.
So he felt that this must be a long process. As for literary and artistic films, as for commercial films, until the market in which people can make big money from cheap garbage has not changed, how can businessmen who are not cinephiles have the patience to listen to cinephile filmmakers talking about their creations? Creation made with money will only be respected if it is valuable.
Now let¡¯s go back to the audience. The most important thing in life is to be happy. Watching commercial movies is not just for happiness. You can watch whatever movie suits your needs. It is good for the audience to spend money and be happy. Who knows in the future, if you think about it with good intentions and hope, maybe it won¡¯t be that bad. The magical Chinese audience understands movies very well as soon as they come out.
No matter what, Ye Wei is willing to do his small part to help the rise of Chinese filmmakers. Although the effect of the workshop may not be immediate, it is better than nothing.
The mpaa Asia office is still looking for a partner in the mainland, and the time and location have not yet been decided, but with a guest like him, it will not be difficult to make it happen.
Now that Xiying is free, Ye Weiting is interested in going to China for activities, and is especially interested in China¡¯s new generation of young actresses, those acting geniuses, those interesting, cool and beautiful girls who are obsessed with movies. If there is an opportunity, we can also do some exchanges.

I heard that Ye Wei was going to the UK for a trial training, and Emma Watson wanted to meet him. In fact, she and he are not friends so far, and they don't have any personal relationship. It's time to meet for dinner and exchange ideas. In order to meet this talented man, she didn't mind making a special trip to Manchester.
She asked her agent to help contact her, but what she got was Ye Wei's "No time!"
This really made her a little angry, why not? Just talk to Lily Collins first. It was just a normal meeting. She just wanted to discuss cooperation and was not interested in him.
After much deliberation, Watson asked for Ye Wei¡¯s email address and sent an email:
"Hello Mr. Arrogant. I am Emma Watson, people usually call me Hermione. I don't know who I am. I know this is not over yet, I just hopeYou can finally be free and be yourself. The sooner the better. can you help me? " - Didn't finish reading?
