This series of good shows between the Daqian and the Oscars simply made audiences all over the world happy.
In the end, the Executive Board only issued a verbal order without any words, and the members of the association were not allowed to announce this matter to the public.
However, this order was issued to more than a dozen associations and tens of thousands of members. In the face of the ubiquitous media reporters, how could this matter be hidden from them?
Therefore, almost in the afternoon when the order was issued, many news media reported that the Oscars were going to ban the Daqian. The media said that this was the most serious ban in history, and all the future filming plans of the Daqian would be fatally affected. It was very likely that the Daqian would have to withdraw from Hollywood.
This was because no Hollywood filmmaker could go against the wishes of the various associations.
As a result, the next day, seven top filmmakers collectively announced that they would withdraw from their respective associations and join the Daqian Film Company, becoming lifelong directors of the Daqian Film Company.
Within a week, twelve filmmakers publicly announced that they would join the Daqian Film Company. According to the media statistics, a total of nineteen top filmmakers had withdrawn from the association. These nineteen filmmakers represented the entire film industry. Even if these nineteen filmmakers were to lead a group of newcomers, they would be able to produce a very comprehensive film.
This made countless media very curious. What did the Daqian Film Company do to persuade these nineteen filmmakers to join the Daqian Film Company?
After the Daqian Film Company announced that they would be shooting the "Lord of the Rings" movie series, the media suddenly realized that there was such a masterpiece waiting for them. They were even willing to take the risk of withdrawing from the association to join the Daqian Film Company.
In fact, these media were really overthinking things. These filmmakers were just doing it for the money. They were very simple.
After these news were released, some media immediately announced that the Executive Board had lost, and it was a crushing defeat. This was because the Executive Board did not achieve their goal of banning everyone. The Daqian Film Company still had the best technical resources in Hollywood.
However, some media also said that the Executive Board did not lose. These nineteen top filmmakers could at most guarantee the shooting of one or two movies. If the Daqian Film Company wanted to shoot more than one movie in a year, they would still not be able to find more resources.
More importantly, the Daqian would not be able to find any stars to star in his movie.
Because on the second day after the 69th Oscars, more than 30 stars publicly expressed their condemnation of the Daqian and Jia Yapeng's behavior in the media. They even made it clear that unless Jia Yapeng apologized to all the members of the Oscars, they would forever refuse to act in Daqian movies.
The announcement of these 30 stars was just the beginning. Just as the 19 filmmakers announced that they were joining the Daqian film industry, stars from all over the United States also announced their boycott of the Daqian film industry and demanded an apology from the Daqian film industry. In the end, more than 80% of the famous film stars in Hollywood publicly announced their rejection of the Daqian film industry.
As for the remaining 20% of celebrities, they were either involved in drug abuse, PC abuse, or other evil deeds. They had already been banned by Hollywood. Otherwise, they were known to have bad personalities and would be trouble if they were invited to the production team.
Anyway, except for a few stars, almost all the Hollywood stars had drawn a clear line with the Daqian film industry.
This was also the reason why the media said that the Supreme Council did not lose. As long as the big stars in Hollywood all refused, the Daqian film industry could only invite some unknown actors to star in the film.
Such a film might be able to be released, but it would have no box office appeal. In the end, they would still lose all their money.
Just as the media was worried about the future of the Daqian film industry, the Daqian film industry announced that they would officially start shooting their new film "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in early January 1997. The film was expected to be released in the Christmas season of 1997.
The announcement of this news immediately caused the Harry Potter fans all over the world to go into a frenzy. They didn't expect that the novel they loved so much would be turned into a movie so soon, and they could see the mysterious world of magic in the movie. Was there anything happier than this in the world?
Compared to the joy of the readers of "Harry Potter", the media was a little worried. In particular, a member of the Supreme Council said in an interview that he believed that the cast list would not have the names of any Hollywood actors.
Those who didn't have good movie actors would join Harry Potter, and this excellent novel might face the worst movie adaptation in history!
As a result, the Daqian film industry announced the list of the main cast members the next day. The director was Chris Columbo. This name might be unfamiliar to the Hua Xia audience, but if it was announced that he was the director of the "Home Alone" series, everyone would be familiar with his name.
It could be said that he was the top director of children's movies in Hollywood. He was definitely the best choice for "Harry Potter".
What was worse was that Chris Columbo was not on the list of the previous 19 people. This meant that Chris Columbo was the 20th film director in Hollywood to betray the association, and he was also one of the top people in the industry.
The first thing the media did was to interview Chris Columbus. The director knew that he would not be able to hide from the media, so he agreed to the interview quite straightforwardly.
"Mr. Chris, why did you choose to join the Daqian film industry?" After some routine interview routines, the reporter first asked this question.
"Ahem, it's because I like the novel 'Harry Potter' very much. Whether it's me, my wife, or my two lovely little angels, they are all loyal readers of Harry Potter, or rather, fanatical fans. I'm no exception."
"What I dream of every day is the magical world described in the novel. I can't think of any reason to refuse the Daqian's invitation."
"What about the association?" The reporter asked the most important question.
"The association is just a place for everyone to get together and chat, and to seek benefits for everyone. But if one day, this place not only can't seek benefits for everyone, but also wants to control the future of the members, then it's better not to stay in this place! " Chris Columbo said with a smile. This sentence stunned the reporter, and made the members of the Board fly into a rage.
Previously, when the top film directors quit the association, they either humbly said that they did not deserve to stay in the association, or simply did not answer any questions. They were not like Chris Columbo, who directly accused the association of controlling the lives of the members. This was quite a vicious accusation!
The problem was that the association really could not refute this point, because they did prevent their members from having a relationship with the Daqian. This made it impossible for the association to give a convincing answer to the reporter's interview, and the association's reputation was further damaged.
Although after the incident, the association directly announced that Chris Columbo would be forever banned from participating in any awards and association-related film projects, Chris Columbo did not care.
With the Daqian film, he could earn as much as 10 million US dollars. "Screw the association, you can ban me as much as you want. I'm a Daqian for the rest of my life!"
