Others are unwilling to spend a lot of money, but mark Ken, now for him, money is just a number, a real number. As long as he can win two big prizes, it is not a problem to spend more money.

Daniel spent a large check and invited Bruce Davis, executive director of Oscar, as a public relations consultant. Of course, this is private and not public. Now, in terms of buyers, he doesn't hesitate to pay a lot of money. Coupled with his status, there are no people who can't buy.

Davis said in his class: "the calculation of Oscar votes is a little complicated. For example, the" weighted scoring system "is more complicated. For example, each vote has 10 grades. The first grade gets 10 points and the second grade gets 9 points. Now we implement a" preference voting system. "

Daniel continues: "This system is borrowed from China's political elections because it can save money. The usual practice in most areas is, for example, that there are three candidates. In the first round of elections, two candidates win, but neither of them wins more than 50%. So a few months later, they have to go through another round of elections to see which of the two wins. But voters may be tired and don't want to win a second time Vote, and the election is very expensive. If you adopt the preference ranking voting system, you will not vote for one candidate (which means that this one is my only choice), but vote for three candidates according to your preference, ranking the most recognized candidate first, second, and third again. "

Davis Road: "This is the basic meaning of the preference voting system. The votes are calculated and classified according to the first vote: This is the first vote obtained by the first candidate, this is the first vote obtained by the second candidate, and this is the first vote obtained by the third candidate. Oh, but this is the third candidate. He only got 100 votes. It seems that not many people think he is the strongest candidate Election. Therefore, the votes he has won will be redistributed to the first two candidates who have won the most votes. That is, in the redistribution of these 100 votes, the ownership of this ballot will be determined according to the preferred ranking order on the ballot. Finally, it will be clear who is the winner without having to make a new election. "

Mark asked, "how do college members vote?

Davis: "How do you decide which film will win the best picture award? First, you need to see how many first place votes a film has won. You must win at least 5% of the first place votes. In all votes, you must be the first choice in order to be nominated. In some years, maybe only 6 or 7 films have won more than 5% of the votes, so in these years There will only be 6 or 7 nominated films. We've been doing this for 3 years... You really need to prove to the members that your films are excellent. If only a small number of votes, such as only two members of the whole college, approve your films, I'm afraid it's not enough. Your films must be approved by a majority of the members in order to be nominated. That's just the category of best film. "

"In other categories, only five films are nominated. These awards are voted by experts from a certain branch, such as hairdressers and makeup artists. These nominations are also obtained through the preference ranking voting system. The five films with the largest number of votes are nominated, such as screenwriter, performance, etc. These are the basic rules."

Mark said: "you mean that unless there is an absolute advantage, how to accurately conduct public relations will be a problem, and how to make good use of the tickets in hand will be the weight that can reverse Libra."

Davis Road: "Among the five main categories, there are only five nominations in each category, and you don't have to have 50% of the votes to win. Therefore, if the votes in a category are very scattered, you may only need 25% of the votes to win. At this time, people will ask each other, did you vote for this film? Did you vote for it? Why can't I find who voted for it? That's because 75% of the people didn't vote for it! That is So, there are enough people voting for it. Therefore, sometimes strange things do happen. "

Mark said, "if the tickets are scattered, what is the catch?"

Davis: "So recently, we plan to revise the voting rules for best picture in the next session. This is because we can now have 10 films nominated, more than before. If we get 16% of the votes according to the previous rules, we may win. Now, in the voting for best picture, we hope to absorb more and more convincing votes. According to the current rules, such as As mentioned earlier, if each nominated film does not get enough votes, we will recalculate the votes, and redistribute the votes of the film with the least votes to the film with the more votes according to preference, to see if there is more than 50%. If not, redistribute the votes of the film with the lowest votes. If it is less than 50%, we will continue to do so.

Chen: are you talking about the best picture nomination?

Davis: No, I'm talking about the final vote for the best film. This is a very important inside story. Now, when choosing the best film, it's not a vote. Because now there are five nominated films, the top five for the best film are all right. It's sorted from 1 to 5. If the first place has reached 50%, it doesn't matter. If the first place's vote is less than 50%, it's according to preference The ranking system makes up for the ticket that ranked first in the second choice. "

Mark said, "as executive director, will you know some voting details?

Davis: "PwC never told me the total number of votes, even after the whole event. When I was executive director, I made three requests in different years, and I needed some information. But they only gave me the total number, but didn't tell me the title. I only knew the number of votes for the first film and the number of votes for the second film."

Mark said, "OK! I need you to tell Daniel what to do and how to skillfully use his resources to play this game."

Davis said, "of course, it's my job."

Mark and his team have invested a lot of resources and time to win the prize. If Giselle is not pregnant, she will attend the party and wave flags for mark to win votes. Now she can only stay at home.

Mark doesn't know how other people do it. Like those winners, they have also experienced so many preparatory activities. If they do so many things and do nothing, it is really a very frustrating thing.

Mark is working and living under Daniel's guidance these days. Ji has no private time and leisure. His company and foundation don't care. This is the thing that mark spends the most time and resources.

Of course, mm is in precise public relations, and others are doing the same. In the calm lake, there is a turbulent current. If you are not in it, you can't know the hardships. Laymen just watch a lively scene and always marvel. So and so and so won the prize. They are talented and very lucky. So and so and so lost the election. They return disappointed and sigh.

The biggest highlight of the past few Oscars was whether the national film master Martin Scorsese could win the award, which was his obsession and the obsession of the American people. Many people believed that the older and more kind Scorsese should win an Oscar for best director rather than a fool's lifetime achievement award. This has become the biggest suspense of these Oscars. Whenever they heard that Scorsese lost the election, There are always countless people lamenting and complaining about grievances, which has almost become a routine.

Some fans angrily said, "if Scorsese suddenly dies, the college will never make up for their mistakes!"

The biggest attraction of this year is whether mark can win the prize? Qualification and talent are the concerns of professionals. What laymen see is lively, novel and interesting. This is an industry that plays with the eyeball economy and worships the talents. Mark junior became famous and achieved great and brilliant achievements. He is the elite of this era and the child who the people watched grow up. If he can reach the top in one fell swoop, It will be a joy for many people to see and hear.

It is estimated that, affected by the economic downturn and the writers' strike, the ratings of the second Oscar are not optimistic and may be worse than last year. However, if we do something to make the audience happy, it may be helpful to improve the ratings.

The Oscars won't have much to watch. The main thing is whether mark can break through and successfully climb to the top, which ranked first in the random interview of the TV station.

The second is Joe Stuart, who is the host of this academy award ceremony. Although he is famous in the television industry and has presided over the Emmy award with outstanding performance, the Oscar experience is unforgettable. Two years ago, when he first came out to preside over the Oscar ceremony, he caught up with the super cold year when crash beat Brokeback Mountain. At that time, the five works nominated for the best film, Brokeback Mountain, crash, Munich, good night, good luck and Capote (none of them exceeded 100 million!), the box office in North America was lower than one another. Accordingly, Ratings also fell to the lowest level in 20 years.

This year, the 80th Academy Awards ceremony, which reopened Jim gates as a producer, invited Joe Stuart to take office again. How to maintain the rebound in ratings brought by Alan dickeniels, a good friend in the industry last year, has become a top priority for Stuart. It's rare that the Golden Globe award ceremony is cancelled, and the Grammy has no expectations because of the screenwriter's refusal to assist in speech writing. Should the Oscar ceremony, which has no semicolon and takes full advantage of it, take this opportunity to take a higher level? Stuart, who has always been good at hitting the audience's laughter with quiet humor, will prepare what baggage will be one of the highlights.

Why did Mark become the most popular? Because of the five films selected as the best film, the box office is lower than one. Only Juno barely exceeds 100 million. Laymen always watch the excitement. It's not surprising that mark is popular.
