Millennium director

Beijing, Wu family.

In this sensitive period when all industries are depressed and everyone has to stay at home, Liu Yifei, a busy person in the entertainment industry, is also very idle.

Without any work, she is almost retired. She sat on the sofa early in the morning, holding her daughter and watching the Oscar broadcast on Guangying Kuaibo, watching with relish.

She has participated in the Oscar Awards.

That year, "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" was also nominated for the Oscar's technical awards, and finally won a best special effects award.

At that time, she participated in the Oscar Awards with the group, but she was always sitting in the audience and didn't have the opportunity to stand on the stage to receive the award.

But this year's session is a bit special.

After all, it is the year for her husband to win awards.

Since December last year, Wu Yuan went to North America and started the road to North American promotion and awards for "Bruce Lee". Even during the Spring Festival, he did not return to China and stayed abroad.

When Wu Yuan first said he wanted to make Bruce Lee, he planned to finish it in 2019. But now he has to attend the Oscars in February next year, and he will be abroad for three months.

His daughter naturally hasn't seen her father for three months.

Originally, Liu Yifei still had some complaints in her heart, after all, her daughter is still young and needs her parents' company.

But now she is not in a hurry to hope that her husband will return to China.

After all, the current domestic epidemic situation is very serious, but there is no risk abroad for the time being, so Wu Yuan is quite safe abroad.

However, the child can't be without a father! (Sad)

So, in order to let the baby who is less than one year old remember his father, Liu Yifei held the child in front of the TV at the beginning of the live broadcast of the Oscars today.

Well, Guangying Kuaibo also has a TV version, and you can watch the live broadcast with a TV set-top box.

Whenever Wu Yuan appeared on the screen, Liu Yifei would hold her baby and say to her: "Look, this is Dad~"

"Is Dad handsome~"

"Dad is going to win an award!"

Until, Wu Yuan really won an award.

When Spike Lee read out Wu Yuan's name, Liu Yifei was much more excited than Wu Yuan on TV.

After all, fifteen years ago, her idol was her husband.

Seeing Wu Yuan win an award, she was more excited, happy and proud than winning an award herself.

"Qingqing, look, Dad won the Best Director Award!"

"This is the most powerful award for a director!"

"This is the first Asian director to win this award."

Liu Yifei held her daughter, nose to nose with her, and smiled very happily.

Qingqing, who was still only able to speak, naturally didn't understand what her mother was saying, but she also smiled very happily.

At the same time.

When Wu Yuan held up the little golden man at the Oscars ceremony, the whole of China and even Asia was ignited.

In this time when the whole country is on edge and in a depressed mood, it is undoubtedly a great joy to have such an exciting news.

Although the word "rushing for joy" may be a bit exaggerated and excessive, it is true that this year's Oscars in China have received much more attention than last year, because everyone hopes to get some joyful news in such a depressing day.

Yes, for Chinese movie fans, no, for Chinese people, being able to see a Chinese director win the Best Director trophy at the Oscars is a piece of news that can make the whole country happy.

Again, the national conditions are different.

China is a country full of collectivism.

Wu Yuan's award is not just his own, but represents the film level of the entire country!

In the early years, it was an extremely awesome thing for a Chinese director to be nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film Award at the Oscars.

Although the filter for Oscars has gradually disappeared in recent years, and even because of the increase in national strength and soft power, everyone's mentality towards Oscars and Hollywood has also changed from being high above to feeling that it is just that now.

But we have to admit that there has never been a director from mainland China who has won the Best Director Award at the Academy Awards.

Although there is Li An, Li An is not a director from mainland China, let alone a director from the Chinese film industry. The public's impression of him is mostly that of a Hollywood director.

Because not many people have seen the Chinese-language films he made in Taiwan in his early years, even though some of them were nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Golden Horse Awards, Berlin Awards, and Oscars.

Wu Yuan is different. He is a Chinese director from Beijing Film Academy and has made many popular films in China. He has both good reputation and box office success.

Even though he has also worked in Hollywood, the first impression of him is that he is a Chinese director, not a Chinese director who works in Hollywood.

Even in Asia, most movie fans in East Asian countries think that Wu Yuan is a Chinese director, and do not classify him as a Hollywood director.

In the early years, when he was filming "Pirates of the Caribbean", Japanese and Korean fans did regard him as a Hollywood director, and they all knew him from Hollywood movies.

But in the past decade or so, Wu Yuan's popular movies in Asia are all Chinese-language movies. The impression of the new generation of young people has long changed from the early "Pirates of the Caribbean" to movies such as "Gravity", "The Martian" and "Ready Player One".

Asian countries also regard Wu Yuan as the pride of Asian filmmakers, rather than treating him as a Hollywood Asian director.

After all, the Asian film industry has been suffering for a long time, and everyone hopes that Asia can have more directors who are awesome in the world.

And Wu Yuan is the perfect template.

Well, there is also Bong Joon-ho, who has also entered the Oscar finals with "Parasite".

"Breaking news-my country's famous director Wu Yuan won the Best Director Award at the 92nd Academy Awards!"

"The first director from the mainland to win the Best Director Award at the Academy Awards, and the first Chinese director!"

"Director Wu Yuan shines at the Oscars, Bruce Lee helps Wu Yuan win the little golden man!"

"Bruce Lee and Wu Yuan's powerful combination across time and space, the legendary Chinese actor and director won the Oscar together!"

At a time when the Oscars had not been ruined by "Nomadland", the news of Wu Yuan's award was still very sensational, and domestic social platforms were also happy to promote it.

Just when he stepped onto the podium to receive the award and had no time to say his acceptance speech, the news that he won the Best Director award quickly swept the domestic Internet, and major APPs pushed pop-ups at the first time.

The photo of him holding the little golden man on the Oscar stage has become the cover photo of all news videos and articles!

Not only that.

Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines, where Wu Yuan has influence, are also frantically flooding their screens with this news.

The crown of the first person in Chinese film has been worn by him!

Even Zhang Yimou can't compete with him at this moment!

The whole of Asia is discussing Wu Yuan! (End of this chapter)
