Millennium director

“Judging from the shortlist, director Wu Yuan is indeed extremely young.

In the broadcast room, the host was still praising Wu Yuan generously.

At this time, the broadcast screen has entered the infield, and the Kodak Theater, which can accommodate more than 3,000 people, is almost full.

The on-site director was constantly directing the cameramen, and Hollywood's top stars appeared in front of the camera one after another.

Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Halle Berry, Hugh Jackman, Tom Hanks…

One after another Hollywood's top stars appeared on the screen, constantly causing the audience in front of the TV to scream with excitement!

In this era, the Internet is not yet so developed. It is really only two or three times a year that we can see so many international superstars at one time. It is very precious!

Wu Yuan, Chris, and Scarlett were also taken care of by the director and given several frontal shots.

The three people being watched by the director were also chatting in whispers.

"Director, is it possible for us to win the award?" Chris asked in a low voice while responding to the camera with a sunny smile.

As insiders, they know what the Academy Awards is all about.

Chris actually asked this because he wanted to know whether "Juno" has done public relations and how much effort it has spent on public relations.

However, Wu Yuan's answer disappointed him.

“Being able to squeeze into the nomination list for Best Picture and Best Director is the limit of what Fox Searchlight can do.

After all, Fox Searchlight is only an independent production company that has been established for less than 10 years. It is also because of the short time of the company's establishment that it has a rare opportunity to compete in the Olympics, so Fox Searchlight made full efforts.

Can the movie "Juno" really qualify for Best Picture?

Wu Yuan himself didn't believe it when he said this.

It's just a light comedy film about a girl's puppy love. Even if it adds a line of "growth and responsibility", it's not qualified to compete for the best picture.

Not just Best Picture, but Best Director too.

It's really not good for comedy movies to be realistic. They can sell box office but can't win awards.

"There is no hope for Best Actress." Wu Yuan turned his head and glanced at Scarlett, who was looking forward to it. "Scarlett did a great job, but your opponent is Halle Berry."

"You know, she just won the Best Actress Award at the Berlin International Film Festival."

"You are too immature compared to her."

Scarlett Janssen nodded with understanding: "I know, it's a very lucky thing for me to be shortlisted."

From being a moderately famous fourth- and fifth-tier actress to becoming an Oscar candidate for Best Actress, Scarlett Janssen has taken a big step, and she is extremely satisfied with her current achievements.

"Fox Searchlight has communicated with me in advance and will do its best to publicize the Best Original Screenplay Award. After all, 'Juno' is their first film to be nominated for an Oscar, so they still have to work hard."

"But even Fox Searchlight himself doesn't know whether it was successful in the end." John, who was listening silently, added.

In American culture, although public relations are put on the table and producers are allowed to use public relations and judges, no one knows whether the public relations has been successful until the awards are actually unveiled.

This is just like electing the president. No matter how much money is spent on public relations, voters will still have to have a thrilling vote counting and singing in the end.

The crew of "Juno" didn't talk much. After a brief exchange, they all shut up and looked at the stage. After all, the awards ceremony was about to start.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

"Welcome to the 74th Academy Awards!"

A relatively well-known stand-up comedian in North America took to the stage to announce the official start of this Oscars.

He used humorous language and made the opening introduction in a jovial manner. He also took the initiative to interact with the celebrities present. Of course, he said some American-style ridicule, which made the audience laugh.

The style of the Oscars was different from the European film festivals Wu Yuan had attended, which made him feel particularly novel.

Of course, "Juno", which received four nominations, did not escape the host's ridicule.

"Look who's sitting over there!"

"This combination of three handsome men and beauties comes from the crew of the movie "Juno"!"

"But can anyone tell me who the handsome Asian guy sitting next to Juno is and why I didn't see him in the movie?"

The host smiled funny and acted as if he was listening to the director's introduction. After nodding his head frequently, he suddenly realized: "Oh! So he is the director of this movie?"

"What?! He hasn't celebrated his 20th birthday yet this year?!"

"What?! He just won the Best Director in Berlin last month?"

"I think I must have heard wrong. This must be fake news!"

The audience and guests all laughed, including stars such as Tom Cruise.

Apart from anything else, Wu Yuan's age will be used as a joke in Hollywood for at least ten years and he will never get tired of it, because he is really too young.

Wu Yuan also nodded to the camera with a bit of laughter and made a "fake news" mouth gesture, making the audience in front of the TV laugh.

"But to be honest." The host on the stage put away his teasing smile and gave Wu Yuan a thumbs up: "You remind me of an equally handsome Chinese actor, John Lone!"

"You are as handsome as him, but he is an actor and you are a director."

"There is no shortage of young and handsome actors in Hollywood, but you are really the only young and handsome director!"

The host also praised Wu Yuan at the end, which caused whistles and cheers everywhere, most of which were good-natured cheers, because Wu Yuan is indeed good enough.

For a director who has been shortlisted for an Oscar at such a young age, no one wants to be at odds with him, they just want to show him kindness.

Several actresses even blew kisses to Wu Yuan from a distance, which was captured by the live cameras and faithfully reflected on the big screen, causing even greater laughter.

"Okay, now that the guests have been introduced, this year's Academy Awards ceremony has officially begun!"

"Let's give Benicio Del Toro a round of applause to present us with our first award of the night!"

"Best Supporting Actress Award!"

The humorous opening was finally over, and the awards ceremony officially got down to business.

Wu Yuan enjoyed this Academy Awards ceremony purely to watch the excitement and see the world. He didn’t have much expectations for winning the award itself, so he was very relaxed.

Chris and Scarlett are similar. They are both newcomers. It is already a lucky thing for them to be able to attend the Oscars. They dare not expect more.

So the entire "Juno" crew is enjoying tonight's Oscars. Every time the camera captures their scenes, you can see several people chatting or applauding with bright smiles. The atmosphere is full!

Until the award of the Best Original Screenplay Award.

It seems that there is really a goddess of fate who is fiddling with fate. "Juno" still won her best original screenplay award!

Amid the congratulations and applause of award-winning guest Gwyneth Paltrow, yes, Pepper Potts from "Iron Man", Wu Yuan strode onto the award podium and won the first gold medal in his life. people!

"Thank you, thank you to the Academy for awarding this award to me. This is the greatest recognition of the movie "Juno."

Holding the statuette in both hands, Wu Yuan looked directly at the camera in front of him and smiled brightly.

"Also taking this stage and opportunity, I want to emphasize that some Hollywood tabloids should stop spreading rumors. There is really no second part of "Juno"!"
