Director Zhang Yuan: "I was also very concerned about this award before. "Brokeback Mountain" by director Lu Ping'an is a very perfect movie, very emotional, and it is also his most simple and steady work, so I think he must be in this award. There will be achievements in the Oscars, and I would like to sincerely wish director Lu Pingan, he is the pride of Chinese directors."

When he learned that the Best Picture went to "Crash", Zhang Yuan said he was not surprised, but it was expected: "The United States is a multi-ethnic country, and films that reflect the relationship between races should also be the focus.

Director Wu Shixian also objectively analyzed that the reason why "Brokeback Mountain" missed the best picture was mainly the subject matter: "After all, this is an award voted for by more than 6,000 people, and the subject matter of "Brokeback Mountain" will still make some conservative Americans It’s hard for people to accept, and from other perspectives, it’s not necessarily true that artistic films can win more favor.”

Director Zheng Kehong, who is "retreating" to write scripts, is most optimistic about "Brokeback Mountain" directed by Lu Pingan. When he learned that Lu Pingan won the Best Director Oscar this year, he could not hide his excitement. He felt that this could be regarded as a masterpiece of the Chinese nation. pride.

Although the film failed to win the best picture in the end, Director Zheng had no particular regrets. Perhaps because he was also a director, he believed that "best director" was more important to Lu Pingan. In addition, director Zheng also said that Oscar After all, it is a judging standard under commercial operation. The quality of a film cannot be judged simply by whether it wins or not. However, the "small films dominate" presented by the best picture at this Oscar. Director Zheng believes that this illustrates the emotional power of human nature itself. more worthy of attention

BJ time on the afternoon of March 7th.

That's hours after the Oscars.

Various reprinted reports, original short comments and celebrity interviews bombarded the mainland news pages.

Although "Brokeback Mountain" failed to win the best picture, everyone expressed regret, and some even insinuated that the Oscars actually shared the cake like the Golden Rooster Award.

But it is undeniable that everyone was extremely excited about Lu Ping'an winning Best Director.

All reports used one word: the achievement of rewriting the history of Chinese film!

It was foreseeable that when Lu landed safely in the capital more than ten hours later, he would see a scene he had never seen before in his life.

On the other side, Lao Mei.

Lu Pingan, who rewrote the history of Chinese film, was talking to Downey about another thing that changed the history of American film.

"Iron Man is not a very popular character. Don't dislike him as a second-tier Marvel hero."

"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it."

Donnie rubbed his hands.

He didn't expect Lu Ping'an to be serious about it!

He said sincerely: "Actually, I also like this hero very much. I remember when I was a child, I had a fight with someone because of his comic books. Haha, that was a long time ago."

"It seems that you two are really destined."

"Yuan, what do you mean?"

Lu Ping'an spread his hands and said, "I can't translate the word fate. You just need to know that some things may be destined from the beginning."

"Just like what is written in "Human Weakness", everything in life has a price tag?"

"That's pretty much it."

Lu Pingan nodded, and then reminded, "But when I say this, I don't mean that you can really get him. Destiny is a very magical thing. No one can guarantee how it will develop in the next three years."

"Yes, fate is unpredictable."

Downey's pupils dilated with emotion, and then he focused his eyes again, and said sincerely to Lu Ping'an, "Lu, now we can sign a contract, and there are clauses attached to the contract. If I fall again in the future, you can terminate it according to the terms of the contract." Contract, don’t worry about any risks.”

"Okay, sign it."

Lu Ping'an said and took out the contract.

Downey choked slightly.

But he didn't have much idea.

After all, this is the protagonist of a superhero movie with a production cost of more than 100 million yuan. Previously, New Line was looking for Tom Cruise. Judging from Downey's current situation, even when he was at his peak, he would not be able to have such resources. Yes, so if you can get it now and only have to wait three years, you still care about Mao’s face.

With this in mind, he looked at the contract, and when he saw the special clauses column, he burst into tears.

Among the special clauses, in addition to the dozen or so stringent but reasonable clauses that trigger the termination of the contract, there is another one: the remuneration is adjusted according to the current price?

"Lu, I really, I really don't know how to thank you."

"Donnie, it's very un-Iron Man for you to cry like this."

"Sorry, sorry."

Danny blinked quickly, wiped away his tears with one hand, then stood up, stretched out his hand, "Thank you, Lu."

"Sign first."

"Oh yes."

Iron Man, done!

After Downey left, Heath Ledger walked in.

"It's a pity that I couldn't win the Best Actor award for you."

Lu Ping'an said this when he came up.

"It's okay Lu, I've got enough."

Heath Ledger was all smiles.

indeed.

With the movie "Brokeback Mountain", his net worth has skyrocketed, he has gained love, and now he has a child. He is the winner in life.

But Lu Ping'an continued: "Next, I have an extremely difficult challenge that I want to give you."

Heath Ledger's eyes were firm and he said: "You say it."

Lu Ping'an gave the script: "The filming will start in the second half of the year. Maybe I will direct it, maybe not, but the plot will not change. I need you to get into the state perfectly before shooting starts."

When Heath Ledger took over the script and saw "Batman 2", his pupils trembled, and then he nodded heavily: "Okay!"

"Just in case, we need to sign a contract first. I can't let you make the same mistake as Jack."

"Haha, Jack regrets it so much now. He wants me to ask you if there is another chance in the future."

"Tell him that it will happen, but it may be difficult in the near future."

"I know, you want to do the Olympics."

"Yes, let's not talk about this anymore, let's sign the contract."

"OK."

Ten minutes later, Heath Ledger finished signing and it was done!

It's really difficult to make two movies without these two people, so now that they have insurance, Lu Ping'an can be considered relieved.

After everyone left, the road continued safely.

The next step is to explain the routine things to Wattsberg.

How to arrange the film project I clicked on.

James Wan and Nolan can give some encouragement and so on.

At 11 o'clock, as soon as the matter was settled in the United States, Lu Ping'an and the little golden man immediately set off back to the country. They could not stay for a long time because there were major events in the country! (End of chapter)
