Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

Chapter 409 Chapter 409: He is not in the Oscar, but the Oscar is his legend

This Oscar ceremony has a lot of Chinese elements, and it is the Oscar with the most nominations from Chinese filmmakers.

Although CCTV does not broadcast live broadcasts, there is no shortage of live broadcast platforms on the Internet.

There are a large number of Chinese movie fans who are always paying attention to the awards results.

As "The Transient Universe" passed one award after another, the Internet was filled with expressions of regret and injustice.

Especially when Shanhe won the Best Original Screenplay award, not only did he receive a few cheers, but he also attracted a large group of fans to curse.

"It's another screenplay award, let alone mountains and rivers, we don't care about it!"

"Why is this rhythm so familiar? Ma Ma won't give away Shanhe with a bullshit screenplay award again, right?"

"If "The Instant Universe" fails again for Best Director and Best Picture, I will never watch an Oscar again!"

Naturally, Shanhe was also paying attention to the online live broadcast. Seeing the complaints from netizens, he was convinced.

If you use this kind of thing to kill me again, I will never go to this shitty Oscar again!

Since you don't respect me, why should I bow down and accommodate you!

When the award ceremony came to the Best Actress award, everyone knew that this award was unlikely to be awarded to Yan Bingyan, but they were still very concerned about the highlight moments of their compatriots.

In recent years, Shanhe's films have indeed pushed many local Chinese actors to the global stage, from Tony Leung Ka Fai in "Moon", to Gong Li in "Gravity", to Yan Bingyan, Huang Bo, and Wang Baoqiang in "The Instant Universe" , Li Xuejian and Ma Li.

Movie fans around the world are becoming increasingly familiar with Chinese actors. Chinese movies and Chinese actors as a whole have their own sense of presence around the world.

This is very important. The biggest advantage of Hollywood movies is the overall brand invasion!

For Chinese films to be sold overseas, in addition to having sufficient national strength as a backing, they also need an overall reputation and brand.

Of course, it is still too early to say this. The domestic film market is still in the growth stage. Chaos and disorder are inevitable stages. It is difficult to stop the trend of bad movies. Shanhe or Chuhe Film and Television alone cannot do anything.

Forming an overall reputation cannot be achieved overnight and requires the efforts and dedication of several generations.

These are all digressions!

The Oscar Awards ceremony is still going on, and the last Oscar winner Tom Hobo took the stage to introduce the nominated actors and starring movies.

There was no upset or surprise, Meryl Streep won the award. As she said herself, everyone has become accustomed to her face, and the Hollywood Academy favors her!

Yan Bingyan and Michelle Williams also politely stood up and applauded this Hollywood evergreen.

Later, Natalie Portman, the last Best Actress, came on stage to award the Best Actor to the leading actor in "The Artist":

French actor Jean Dujardin.

So far, the 84th Academy Awards ceremony has come to an end, with only two awards for Best Director and Best Picture left to be announced.

The recognized favorites for these two awards are Shanhe's "The Instant Universe" and French director Michel Hazanavicius' "The Artist."

It just so happens that neither film is an authentic Hollywood film, and neither director is from China.

In terms of popularity and popularity, "The Artist" is Oscar's favorite movie type.

"The Instant Universe" is a comedy movie with high box office and high popularity, but it is a subject that is relatively excluded by the Oscar Academy.

Coupled with Shanhe's several accompanying runs, from the outside, there is a lot of suspense about the ownership of the two grand prizes.

This is also the most eye-catching highlight of this Oscar!

As expected, at this point, although the stage is still reviewing and remembering filmmakers from all over the world who passed away this year, the ratings of the Oscars have already skyrocketed.

Soon, the old ruffian Michael Douglas, who had won two Oscars, walked onto the stage alone and presented the Best Director Award.

Douglas was very personable and very arrogant despite his age. He started by telling a joke.

"There once was a director, who won the Academy Award for Best Director. In order to prepare for the filming of his new movie, he went to the bank to apply for a loan. The banker was very curious about him and asked: I know that the photographer is responsible for the photography, and the screenwriter is responsible for After writing a good script, actors are responsible for playing good characters, but what do you do as a director? This director thought for a while and then changed the bank! "

Douglas's jokes made the guests in the audience, especially the directors sitting in the front row, almost burst into laughter.

Indeed, it is difficult to describe the position of a film director in a few words, but the director is definitely the core of a film. Even in the Hollywood producer-centered system, the director still determines the success of the film!

Following Douglas's introduction, the nominated films were presented one after another on the big screen:

The first one is "The Instant Universe", followed by Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris", Terrence Marconi's "The Tree of Life", Martin Scorsese's "Hugo", Alexander · "The Descendants" by Payne, and "The Artist" by Michel Hazanavicius.

As Douglas opened the envelope, eyes from around the world were focused on the moment.

Can Hua Xiaqiu become the youngest best director at the Oscars before the age of 30, or will he be suppressed by the Academy again and still get nothing?

Although Shanhe was very calm in front of the computer, Hathaway was very nervous at the scene. She hoped that her husband could conquer everything like a hero. Her man had this ability and qualification!

Although a statuette does not bring any special gains to their family, it can represent the husband's achievements and honor.

She hopes to be proud of Qiu's glory on the stage!

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Douglas took a look at the results, looked at the audience with a smile, and was silent for about ten seconds.

Bruckheimer, who was sitting in the front row, almost couldn't help but take off his shoes and smash the old ruffian's face all over. You son of a bitch, you should hurry up and say something!

"Congratulations, Annie!"

Douglas' words made the whole audience exclaim, followed by laughter and applause!

"The winner is Qiu, "The Instant Universe"!"

The most excited person at the scene was the crew of "The Instant Universe". Huang Bo, Bai Yuxia, Yan Bingyan and others stood up and hugged each other in celebration instantly.

Shanhe is not only their boss, but also their friend and leader, and their compatriot. They are all proud of Shanhe!

Bruckheimer next to him was equally excited. He had cooperated with Shanhe for more than ten years, not to mention the interests and honors. He also hoped that Shanhe could get more benefits based on their friendship and feelings alone. Awards and Honors.

He hopes to witness the growth of a literary giant and leave his name in history!

As Bruckheimer stood up, the audience followed with a standing ovation.

Hathaway covered her mouth and accepted the congratulations and congratulations from everyone around her in surprise.

Netizens watching the live broadcast in China were also cheering excitedly, and the messages on the screen were scrolling fast.

"Shan He is the first Oscar-winning director under the age of 30. The most important thing is that he is Chinese! So proud of him!"

"This award should have been awarded to Shanhe long ago, but it is better late than never!"

"Let me go, next year's "Joker" will definitely be a big hit at the Oscars. This is the rhythm of winning the Oscar for Best Director before the age of 30!"

"It's so awesome that life is unimaginable. Even if Shanhe doesn't come to the scene, they still want to award the trophy to Shanhe. This is strength!"

As a party involved, Shanhe himself was also very happy at this time.

Although he personally doesn't care much about winning or not, and this award can't bring him much, this trophy is very important to Chinese films. It is the victory of the first local Chinese filmmaker on the global film center stage. It has landmark significance.

What's more, "The Instant Universe" has an all-Chinese cast, making this award even more symbolic and pioneering!

The reality is also the same. Not only the family members in the courtyard were cheering for Shanhe, but the entire Chinese film industry was shouting for Shanhe's award. Shanhe's phone rang immediately. For the next hour, Shanhe's phone rang almost every second. All are accepting congratulations and congratulations.

Completely different from winning the Best Original Screenplay Award, Hathaway was very excited when she came on stage. After shaking hands with Douglas and greeting him, Hathaway took the statuette from him.

She raised her hand to the camera and said happily:

"Congratulations, Qiu. What grandma said is indeed true. I was born with the appearance of a prosperous husband!"

Hathaway's joke made Shanhe and Chinese netizens laugh.

After saying the witticism, she then turned to the audience,

"As expected, the academy heard my request. I am even more lucky than Bhikkhu. In the previous two years, he sat in the audience and watched others win awards. This time it is even more pitiful. He can only sit in front of the computer screen and watch himself win the award!"

After a burst of laughter, Hathaway continued,

"I asked Qiu Qiu at home, what would you say if you won the Best Director Award? His exact words were this: Annie, it's great to win an award, but winning an award is not everything about a movie, or even just a movie. A very small part. If all writers and directors create for the sake of winning awards, the prospects of literature and movies will be bleak. Movies are a very advanced comprehensive art and a very affordable entertainment product. I make movies. The purpose is to allow more people to experience the charm of this high-end art at an affordable price. This has always been the direction of my efforts. I will not change my original intention just to win the award, because I think my direction is correct. This is the future of cinema!”

When Hathaway said this, the audience burst into warm applause.

After the applause, Hathaway's mood became even higher.

"Mr. Qiu is so special, so different and fascinating! I am proud of him and honored for myself. Genius is rare, but a noble personality is even more valuable. No one can question his persistence and achievements. , my dear, you will always be my hero, and I will always be proud of you!”

After another round of applause, Hathaway calmed down a little and began her speech of thanks.

"I am here to thank Qiu's book fans and movie fans around the world who support him. Thank you for always standing behind Qiu to support him and allowing him to move towards higher goals; and thank you Jerry, you will always be Qiu's best partner. and dear friends; thank you to Leonardo, Kate, Nicholas, Tom, Jack Cheng and Jet Lee, your cameos make the movie shine; thank you to every member of the cast of "The Universe", this award is yours Kudos to Qiu, thank you to all our loving family and friends, thank you my baby Bernie, love you mom!”

Hathaway walked off the stage to applause.

This was the most bizarre Best Director award ceremony in the history of the Oscars. The wife accepted the award on behalf of her husband, gave a speech, and even made public comments about it!

Audiences around the world witnessed this scene, laughing and talking, while also cheering and cheering for this dreamy couple!

"Yu and Hathaway made me believe that there is beautiful love in this world!"

"The couple of gods! The most enviable couple in the world!"

"You must be happy. Don't be like other couples in the entertainment industry, who are beautiful on the outside but ruined on the inside!"

"I really want to know what Bernie, the fruit of their love, looks like!"

The public pays attention to the gossip between the two, but in the film and television circles, Hathaway's speech on behalf of her husband caused a lot of controversy, which even lasted for several years.

Does Shanhe's film concept represent the future of film? Should film art abandon commercial elements or incorporate commercial elements? Should art be popularized or elite?

These questions were sparked by Hathaway's remarks and have become long-standing topics of debate in the global film community.

These are all things for later, let’s get back to the Oscars ceremony.

Shanhe won the Best Director Award and Hathaway's speech brought the atmosphere and ratings of the Oscars to a climax.

There is only one last award left. Whether Hua Xiaqiu can continue to win and whether Hathaway can appear on stage again is a question that audiences around the world are curious about.

The presenter for the Best Picture Award was Tom Cruise. He didn't talk nonsense. As soon as he came on stage, he pointed everyone's attention to the big screen.

There are ten films nominated for best picture at this year's Oscars. In addition to Shanhe's "The World", there are also "The Tree of Life", "Midnight in Paris", "Descendants", "Moneyball", "Rain" "Fruit", "Help", "Exceptionally loud, very close!" ”, “The Artist,” and Steven Spielberg’s “War Horse.”

The media's most promising films are still "The Instant Universe" and "The Artist".

This movie is full of creativity, breaking the inherent impression that filmmakers have on comedy movies in the past decade, and bringing different narrative expression techniques, lens language and overall structure to the future of movies!

There are a dazzling number of elements in the movie, but it's not cluttered at all, and it's moving and interesting!

The other one is a model of retro art film, a pure French literary film. There is not even a sound in the whole film. It is a black and white romantic silent film!

This film is not made for the general public, but an extremely niche film, showing the high-end sense of art films in every aspect, and the purpose is to win awards. It is the type of film that Shanhe dislikes the most!

The two movies are like standing at opposite ends of the spectrum. The Academy likes the retro art style, but if it were judged by the audience, "The Artist" probably wouldn't even be able to touch the edge of Oscar's shoes!

The Hollywood media and film critics each have their support, but the voice of "The Instant Universe" is obviously higher than that of "The Artist".

In the field of art, successful innovation is always more valuable than successful nostalgia!

Tom Cruise was very straightforward and opened the envelope. After taking a look at it, he seemed a little surprised and then checked again.

"Wow! Tonight belongs to "The Instant Universe"!"

This result is indeed a bit unexpected. Before the awards, everyone thought that the academy would share the cake.

Shanhe won the best director, so the best picture will most likely be "The Artist".

Unexpectedly, the best picture still went to "The Universe".

The Academy has changed its style, shouldn't it?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this result is not surprising!

First of all, "The Instant Universe" is the most innovative film in recent years. From the aspects of narrative, picture, color, light and meaning, its artistic value is not low, and it is a very successful experimental film.

Quality and reputation alone are enough to win any award.

Secondly, the academy has indeed been suppressing Shan He for a very simple reason. Unlike Ang Lee, he is a Chinese with a strong national identity. He will never belong to Hollywood, and he is too young!

But after "Joker" was released, the old men and women in the academy knew very well that they could not suppress this kind of rare talent!

If you don't give him an award for this movie, and he keeps coming back for the next movie, one after another, how many years can you suppress him?

The result of excessive suppression is that not only will the award still be given to him in the end, but it will also make Shanhe's award even more legendary. The longer it is delayed in recognizing him, the more embarrassing it will be for the Oscars and the Academy!

Once again, Shanhe's reputation and strength have been completely solidified, and he does not need an Oscar award to prove anything. The Academy of Academy has no sense of superiority when it comes to Shanhe, and sometimes it even has to consider his influence.

You must know that Shanhe's first profession is a writer, and if he has money, he can completely ignore the North American market and even give up the career of director.

If he goes too far and Shanhe angrily announces that he will never participate in the Oscars, it will not have much impact on him personally, but it will cause huge damage to the reputation of the Oscars!

You’ve already given me everything, so don’t be petty and give me enough!

This result once again plunged Hathaway and the crew of "The Instant Universe" into excitement. Even Bruckheimer, an old gangster, blushed with excitement.

After thirty years in Hollywood, this is the first Oscar-winning film he has participated in producing.

Originally, after Shanhe won the Best Director, he had given up hope for the Best Picture and continued to target "Joker" or "Youth". Unexpectedly, the Academy actually gave him a big surprise!

After a moment of hugging and celebrating, Bruckheimer and Hathaway led the entire team onto the awards stage.

Tom Cruise gives Bruckheimer a big hug,

"Congratulations, Jerry, congratulations, Annie!"

After saying that, he handed the trophy to the two of them. Bruckheimer looked at Hathaway. Hathaway held up the two statuettes and spread her hands to Bruckheimer.

Bruckheimer smiled and accepted the statuette from Tom Cruise.

He raised his head to the audience and the camera, gave the statuette a firm kiss, and then passed the trophy to Bai Yuxia beside him.

Then, he leaned in front of the microphone and said:

"Anne has finished her prepared remarks. We are very surprised by the generosity of the college! Will the sun rise in the west tomorrow?"

The guests in the audience were very happy that Bruckheimer openly complained about the Oscars, and they clapped and laughed.

"Ha ha…"

"At the beginning, "Gravity" had just finished screening, and Qiu said to me, Jerry, I plan to make an absurd comedy movie. I was confused by him. Please, you are now ranked in the global box office rankings. How can a second-largest director make a low-budget comedy? Can you imagine that after Cameron finished filming "Titanic", he would immediately go to film "The Hangover"?

There was another burst of laughter from the audience.

"But no one can change his persistence. Regarding movies, Qiu is persistent and simple. He doesn't have too many scruples. He is just not satisfied with the results in front of him and tries to break his bottleneck with films of different themes. Facts have proved that he That's right, "The Instant Universe" is an epoch-making movie that adds many possibilities to the future of movies. Hollywood needs such movies, and film art also needs such attempts!"

After the applause, Bruckheimer began to express his thanks.

"Thank you to Chuhe Film and Television and Disney for their full support, thank you to every staff member who worked hard on the film, thank you for Yan's outstanding performance, thank you to Nicholas, Li and Ma Li for their wonderful performance. Wilmond, you are the best , thank you to all the big stars who participated in the guest appearance, Qiu, you are not here, but this is still your stage, we will continue next year!”
