? "Don't worry, Miss Grace. ⒉"

In a detached house in West Hollywood, Cohen Craig sat in front of his computer and said into his phone, "I know what to do, you just wait for the good news."

There were bursts of discussion outside the door, and he had no intention of going out for the time being. Instead, he opened the browser on the computer desktop, logged in to the ImdB website, found it from the favorites page, gently pressed the mouse, clicked in, and the webpage instantly Pop up, and the first thing that catches the eye is the film's ImdB rating.

A total of 1652 users, with an average score of 8.2!

If memory serves me right, this is the lowest ImdB score for a Murphy-directed film over the weekend since he entered the Murphy-Stanton fandom.

As the person in charge of Murphy Stanton's black fan organization, he certainly understands the dynamics of this film. Unlike Murphy's commercial films in the past, this biographical film has a mediocre response among fans, but its professional reputation is overwhelming. Many film media And professional film critics are blowing this flat-paced film to the sky.

Cohen-Craig had vaguely heard that Murphy was not filming this film for the market, but for his friends, and it was also aimed at the awards season, so he seemed a bit cold, making him accustomed to his fast-paced and Fans of big-scene commercial films are a little uncomfortable.

After reading the ratings, he dragged down the page again, and the comment column appeared, and the comments at the top were not very good.

"In Murphy's film, it is relatively average and the pace is too slow, but it is worth watching."

The comments below are not very good either.

"Murphy's personal style is too strong, coupled with literary filming techniques, the film looks a bit dull."

"The film is too realistic, so there is no excitement, and the emotions cannot be mobilized at all. Maybe it is a favorite of film critics, but it is not my dish."

Seeing this, Cohen Craig turned off the webpage and said loudly to the outside, "Okay, don't talk about it, come in."

Five or six men and women walked in one after another, each found a place to sit down, and then looked at Cohen Craig, waiting for him to give orders.

The people here have already regarded this job as a full-time job, and signed a strict non-disclosure agreement, and only with specific jobs can they get high bonuses.

"We don't need to hack anyone or attack anyone this time."

Hearing Cohen Craig's words, everyone laughed, and Cohen Craig said directly, "Our job this time is very simple, creating good reviews on several movie websites and social networking sites, which may cause Fan backlash..."

He paused, took a sip of water, and continued, "It's said above that controversy is a good thing. A good movie will never lack controversy."

"Hmm..." Someone answered, "This is easy."

The others also laughed, these jobs are just trivial to them.

"Also, the most important point!" Cohen-Craig suddenly raised his voice, "You have all watched the movie, and there are some sensitive plots related to Catholicism in it, if there are voices similar to Catholicism attacking movies and directors on the Internet , we must counterattack in time, and the direction of the counterattack mainly starts from Hollywood's material collection and shooting freedom."

"No problem." Several people replied casually.

"Okay." Cohen Craig waved his hands to those people like the boss of the company, "Go and do what you should do."

Not only Cohen-Craig and other black fan organizations, but also the head of Murphy's very die-hard fan organization, has also received related notices.

Hollywood and the entertainment industry have developed to the present, and no one can deny that fans have developed into an industry. Although this industry is not obvious, many people even disagree.

But it really exists, and professional fan leaders have appeared. They rely on their connections with celebrity managers and their ability to organize fans, and they can often earn a lot of money.

Of course, these people are not as professional as professional black fans, but the advantage lies in the huge base, and the role they play sometimes cannot be underestimated.

Some people are very talented in this area, such as Daisy, she made ImdB's Murphy-Stanton discussion group very colorful. Every time Murphy's movie is released, ImdB is always full of praise, and the initial rating is often They are all around nine points or even above nine points.

Because of business trip abroad, when Daisy came back, the comment section on ImdB received mediocre response. She watched the movie first. The movie was indeed not as exciting as Murphy's previous works, but it was not that bad.

Afterwards, she received a notice from CAA and took action.

"What did you two do?"

In the chat group of the discussion group, Daisy said aggressively, "I have only been away for a few days, and the comment area is actually occupied by those general comments!"

Someone immediately replied, "But this film is really not very good-looking, with a slow pace, many long shots, and no flashpoints or explosions."

This is indeed the case in the movie, and Daisy can't deny it, but she has already thought of her excuse.

"Slow rhythm and many long shots can show the artistry of the film and meet the aesthetics of Oscar judges and professional film critics."

Most of the people who joined the discussion group were die-hard fans of Murphy, and Daisy knew how to deal with them, "Think about it, how many times has Murphy been nominated for Best Director Oscar? Why can't he get a Best Director Oscar once? Because the film he made was for us, not for the judges!"

"yes!"

"Yes, that's right!"

"That's the reason!"

"That's very true!"

Followed by a bunch of echoing words, movie fans naturally know that Oscar is different from the public, and they also understand that commercial directors like Murphy will inevitably be discriminated against by Oscar.

"Murphy wants to win the Oscar for Best Director, so of course he has to shoot the film in the artistic way that those people like." Daisy's fingers were flying, typing on the keyboard, "As Murphy's fans, don't you think Murphy Do you want to win the best director statuette once?"

"think!"

"certainly!"

"Oscar owes Murphy a statuette."

Seeing that the discussion group was successfully mobilized, Daisy finally wrote, "We can't hold Murphy back, so let's act quickly!"

There was another response below, and then the chat group fell silent. It seemed that everyone ran to give the film and the director good reviews.

Stanton Studios, CAA, and 20th Century Fox all invested some of their resources and began to promote the film during the awards season. Since the film touched on many sensitive points, coupled with Murphy's personal fame and appeal, even if it was Screened in a limited number of theaters, it also attracted considerable media attention.

Many reporters wanted to interview the protagonist's prototype, but they couldn't get into the state prison.

So, they tried to get more relevant information. Reporters and paparazzi gathered at the gate of Murphy's Wave Manor again, and Gal Gadot followed behind.

In addition, from the description of the film, some reporters also discovered the focus of Catholicism, and then came to the door.

Returning to Santa Monica by car from 20th Century Fox, Marquez Costello was still thinking about how to put pressure on Murphy Stanton to modify the film. This speed must be fast.

Now it is only on demand, and the number of people who can see the film is limited. If the expansion of the release is still the same, the impact will be even worse.

Especially for him.

The Catholic Church in Southern California has no power and believers. If there is such a scandal, the archbishop of his area may not only have nothing to do with face, it is very likely that the Vatican will doubt his ability.

Pressure through LA local government?

Father Marquez Costello shook his head immediately. He had stayed in Los Angeles for a long time before. Perhaps in some countries, the power of the government is omnipotent, and even black people can be called white, but Hollywood big Directors have never bought the government's account.

Protests like the industry unions in Hollywood? Like the Directors Guild or the Screenwriters Guild?

"Hmm..." Father Marquez Costello nodded, "Maybe this is a good way."

Now is not a society where theocracy rules. Catholicism is not even ranked as the largest religion in Southern California, and it is impossible to directly force a big Hollywood director to do anything.

The car slowly stopped in front of the office building. Father Marquez Costello opened the door. Just as he got out of the car, he felt a flash of white light in front of him...

He subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands, and more flashes lit up.

Then, many reporters rushed out from nowhere and surrounded Father Marquez Costello. Fortunately, his driver and a young cleric reacted quickly and blocked the rushing reporters with their bodies.

They blocked the reporters, but they couldn't stop the reporters' questions.

"Your Excellency, I wonder if you have seen this movie? In the movie, there are incidents of Catholic priests committing suicide and sheltering suicides. Is this true?"

"Catholicism broke out again, or was it exposed by a big director, what do you think?"

"There is definite news that you worked in Los Angeles in the early 1980s. Are you related to the sexual incident in Murphy Stanton's biographical film?"

"Father Marquez Costello..."

"His Excellency Bishop..."

The reporters and paparazzi didn't give him face at all as the archbishop of this area, and they didn't care about his status as a priest. It was like besieging an entertainment star. Father Márquez Costello rushed.

Father Márquez Costello had enough experience to know that it was not appropriate to speak now, and he never answered any questions. With the help of the people who came out of the office building, he finally got rid of the entanglement of the reporters.

It's just that his face is so gloomy that it seems to be comparable to the cloudy sky in Los Angeles now.
