"Oscar?" Lu Fang said in surprise: "This is good news!"

"Yes, I just received an official invitation letter from the Oscar organizing committee!" Yang Guo said.

"We were shortlisted for Best Film, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Editing, Best Director, Best Actor and more!"

"And my personal award?" Chen Mubai was a little surprised.

In addition to the best film, in fact, the best editing is not high, but the best actor and best director have a great impact on the individual, and they are awards with high gold content.

"Yes, there are nominations for both the director and the actors. ”

"We have broken the nomination of a Chinese film to be shortlisted for the Academy Film Festival!"

In the past, there were also films in China that were shortlisted for the Oscar Film Festival, but there were not so many nominations.

"Last year was really a fruitful year. Lu Fang also smiled: "It seems that you are getting closer and closer to your dream of going international." ”

"Yes, I didn't expect it to be so fast!" Yang Guo nodded.

The gold content of the Academy Awards is still quite high, and it is also a film festival with a relatively high gold content around the world.

The Oscar is the highest film festival award in the United States, and its international popularity is about the same as that of the three major European film festivals, but it is not as fair as them.

The three major European film festivals are mainly based on the quality of the works themselves, and the judges are also film and television practitioners from various countries, so when selecting films, they will only focus on the film itself.

This is also the reason why "Buried Alive" was able to win the award in the first place, if "Buried Alive" was placed at the Academy Awards, it would inevitably not win the Oscar for Best Picture.

Generally speaking, the Oscars are more exclusive, which is a bit similar to the Xiangjiang Academy Awards, which are more dominated by local films.

But the difference is that the Oscars are mainly in a language, that is, English.

The judges are all from the American Actors Guild, Screenwriters Guild, Directors Guild and other professional film and television practitioners' associations, and the judges are all professional talents, which is enough to ensure that the quality of the award-winning films is very high.

English-language films have the highest odds of winning awards, and there is a special award for languages other than English, Best Foreign Language Film, and non-English language films.

Their work was shortlisted in this category, after all, the language of Chinese films is Chinese, not English.

So although it was shortlisted for Best Picture, it basically didn't win this award.

They can compete for the award of Best Foreign Language Film, which is also the highest award except for a few mainstream awards, and the gold content is still very high.

After all, there are so many countries in the world, in addition to English, there are many languages, and the films of these countries get together to compete, and if you want to win this award, you have to beat the works of all the other countries, and it is not easy!

"By the way, we have been shortlisted for a total of two films, and one "Hypnotist"!"

Yang Guo suddenly thought of something, and continued: "The awards I just mentioned are the nominations for "Infernal Affairs", and "Master of Hypnosis" also has nominations for Best Foreign Language Film, Recent Actor, and Best Screenplay!"

"Double happiness?" Lu Fang was surprised again.

This is an extremely rare thing, the two selected movies are related to Chen Mubai, Chen Mubai is simply too fierce!

If you put aside the language restrictions, then Chen Mubai is a well-deserved winner of this Oscar Film Festival!

One person was shortlisted for two films, and both were nominated for Best Actor and Best Picture (Foreign Language), don't be too dick!

Even so, it's enough glory to blow for a lifetime!

At least, in the history of Chinese film, there has never been a person who has been shortlisted for two films at the same film festival!

The mechanism for this reason is because of the geographical problems of China, Baodao has a film submitted to the Oscar Film Festival every year, Xiangjiang has one, and the mainland also has one.

It is equivalent to that Huaxia actually has three places every year, mainly because the cultural differences between the three regions are relatively large, and the regional film and television song culture atmosphere is strong and very different, so Huaxia has three places.

Compared with other countries, the land area of Japan and South Korea is about the same size as a province and city in China, with few ethnic groups and a relatively unified cultural level, and there is no prosperity in China, so the number of places is small.

China is rich in land and materials, and it is also the largest movie box office in Asia, so it has given some preferential treatment in the selection of film festival awards.

"Infernal Affairs" is an authentic Xiangjiang-style movie, and the place where it was completed is also in Xiangjiang, strictly speaking, it is a work produced by Xiangjiang, and the film submitted for review by Xiangjiang last year is this one.

There are many mainland movies, but because Chen Mubai has become famous and strong recently, "Crazy Stone" and "Hypnotic Master" are eligible to participate in the review.

In comparison, "Crazy Stone" speaks dialects, and it is a comedy based on Chinese culture, which may be different from foreigners' sense of humor, which is a cultural difference, so the Ministry of Culture chose "Hypnosis Master" as the film submitted for review.

Whether it is in terms of the content and depth of the movie, or the box office and quality, this movie can sweep the movies of the same year, which is naturally expected.

Externally, the plot of "Master of Hypnosis" is logical, and it is a rare and excellent suspense thriller movie, with a good rhythm of reversal and reversal, which meets the needs of foreigners.

This kind of plot flow movie is different from comedy, you don't need a common culture or sense of humor, you just need to unlock the plot in a reasoning way, after all, useful information is answered in the movie, just calculate it according to your own logical thinking, and it has nothing to do with culture.

It's really because the two movies are very good and because of the different places where they are produced, coupled with the preferential treatment of Huaxia's Oscars, that this phenomenon has been caused.

In fact, Chen Mubai is also the only person who has been selected for two films at the same time, and he also set a record at the Oscar Film Festival!

"I suddenly had a hunch that you would win the best foreign language film. Lu Fang suddenly spoke.

"Both of these films are very good, and you have a very good chance of winning the award. ”

It is true that both "Infernal Affairs" and "Hypnosis Master" are excellent works, and Chen Mubai holds two movies in his hand, and the chances of winning awards are naturally much higher than the rest.

Based on the probability theory alone, the probability of two works winning awards is bound to be much higher than that of one work.

"The Oscars open in mid-March, so we have to prepare in advance and I'll arrange the itinerary for you. Yang Guo said.

It's already the end of February, and the Oscars have announced the shortlisted films in advance, giving the nominated crews from all over the world time to go to the United States to prepare.

It's an honor for any director, and it's basically not absent.

"I hope to win an award. Chen Mubai said with a smile.

He also has excitement in his heart, and being shortlisted for the Oscar is not an easy thing in itself.

In his previous life, he didn't have this opportunity or qualification, but now, he has done it, and he hopes to win back the award and contribute to the influence of Huaxia's films!

"I'm sure you can absolutely do it!" Lu Fang encouraged: "Didn't you win last year's Golden Horse Award?"

"This time, there will be no exceptions. ”

The Golden Horse Awards were presented in November last year, and Chen Mubai won the Best Director and Best Actor awards.

However, he didn't go to the scene, it was Lu Fang who received it on his behalf, he was filming "Thai Embarrassment" in Thailand at the time, and the official also knew about it, after all, the bet between him and Xingcheng was known to everyone on the Internet.

Although Chen Mubai did not go to the scene, he recorded a blessing, which can be regarded as representing his wishes.

China's highest film awards, Golden Rooster Awards, Golden Image Awards, Golden Horse Awards.

Chen Mubai has already won two of them, and there is still the last Academy Award left, so he can collect all three Golden Actors!

This three gold medals refer to domestic film awards, if you count international awards, he has more than three, he has won the Shanghai International Film Festival and the Venice Film Festival, and has already held four actor trophies!

"Master of Hypnosis" is very popular in Southeast Asia, and there are many people who like it, and the box office in South Korea and Japan is very good.

"Infernal Affairs", as Chen Mubai's second production after "Hypnosis Master", also swept Japan and South Korea.

Moreover, police and gangster films are more popular in both countries.

Police movies are popular in Japan and South Korea, and "Infernal Affairs" tells a similar story, and the people of these two countries love this movie.

Chen Mubai's movies are actually very good for the taste of the people of these two countries, whether it is a suspense thriller or a police movie, they are all favorite genres of the people of the two countries, and this type of movie is also popular in their country.

Japanese and Korean horror films are famous in the world, and Japan's Yamaguchi-gumi is still the largest gangster in Asia, and it is also a legal gangster, which is a lot more real material for the movie.

It just so happens that "Buried Alive" and "Master of Hypnosis" are both suspenseful movies, so they are more popular in these two countries, and Japan and South Korea are also one of the few developed countries in Asia, providing box office and enthusiastic responses.

Chen Mubai's influence has gradually spread to Southeast Asia, and many people know that this powerful actor and director is worthy of the name of genius!

......

On WeChat, the shortlist for this year's Oscars has been announced.

Chen Mubai's two films "Master of Hypnosis" and "Infernal Affairs" received several nominations respectively, which once again caused heated discussions.

If it is usual, everyone doesn't care much, after all, the Oscars have nothing to do with them, but this time it is different, there are Huaxia's works shortlisted, and naturally this film festival has received more attention.

Soon, many entertainment news began to report the news, and the Oscar Film Festival was also at the forefront of the hot search, Chen Mubai, as the biggest award-winning favorite, is also the person who created the history of Chinese film and the Oscars, and his fame is once again popular all over the Internet.

Not long ago, the prototype of Mubai Entertainment Group attracted everyone's attention, including his entry into the theater chain and animation industry, and his big and rapid action has already made the whole network discuss.

For the animation industry, Chen Mubai may be the one who changed the industry, and many people put their hopes on him and waited for his animation movies.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the popularity subsided, Oscar sent another wave of heat to Chen Mubai, making Chen Mubai once again arouse heated discussions on the whole network.

"That's awesome!"

"Don't say anything else, let's just say that Chen Mubai's achievements are really unprecedented and unprecedented, and I guess it will be difficult for anyone to break this record in the future!"

Generally, there is only one place for submission in a country, so it is difficult for one person to be shortlisted for two works.

This is the case only for American directors, but American films are all about the Oscar for Best Picture, not for Best Foreign Language Film.

Therefore, Chen Mubai's success cannot be replicated.

Unless there is another director in Huaxia who can produce films through two different regions, and both places choose to submit his films for Oscars, and both films are shortlisted at the same time!

This is quite difficult, not to mention anything else, even if he is shortlisted at the same time, it will only tie his record, and Chen Mubai's two films have been shortlisted for multiple nominations, which is difficult to break.

Even if some films are shortlisted for the Oscars, they may have only one or two nominations, and more than three are few......

"Support Chen Mubai to win the award!"

"I believe that Chen Mubai can sweep the Oscars and win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film!"

"I am willing to use the bankruptcy of Xingcheng Entertainment to bless Chen Mubai with the award!"

"No film in Huaxia has won two awards, Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film, and I believe Chen Mubai can do it!"

"Chen Mubai is really powerful, in just a few years, he can make Chinese films appear many times in the world, in the previous Oscars, Chinese films were rarely nominated for awards, let alone so many nominations at one time, this is the first time I have seen the dawn of Chinese films being able to win awards at the Oscars, I hope don't let me down, please!!"

"If nothing else, I fully support Chen Mubai to win the award, this is an honor that belongs to Huaxia, come on!!"

Everyone is cheering for Chen Mubai, hoping that he can gain something at the Oscar Film Festival.

This is an honor that belongs to the nature of the country, and the award-winning works belong to the country, if Chen Mubai wins the award, he will naturally be able to increase the influence of Chinese films and let more people see the excellent works of China.

The Chinese people have a strong sense of national honor, and in this case, they must hope that the people of their own country can win the award.

......

"Long time no see. ”

"Long time no see, Viagra, Teacher Qian Guang ......" Chen Mubai greeted everyone with a smile.

The crew of "Infernal Affairs" went to the United States together to attend the awards ceremony together.

"Why do you call Ah Viagra, call me teacher. Qian Guang was dissatisfied: "Is my generation so big?"

"You are indeed one round older than us, more than two rounds older than me. Chen Mubai said with a smile.

"Forget it, it's okay if you don't say it, but I'm even more sad when I say it. ”

"Hahaha......" the crowd laughed.

Chen Mubai is still very talented in choking people, and he can always make people speechless.

Compared with everyone's age, Chen Mubai is indeed the youngest, but his achievements are the highest, at least among them, no one has won the best actor in the three major film festivals, let alone the achievement of directorship.

"I'm quite confident that I'll win the award this trip. Luo Fan said.

For "Infernal Affairs", they are very confident, after all, this movie is not only a big hit in China, but also a good box office in Southeast Asia, which is enough to show how good the movie is.

"So, the biggest winner is Mubai. Liang Wei made up for it.

"yes, anyway, both movies are about him, and he does have peace of mind. Qian Guang agreed.

"Don't bury me, two teachers, it's impossible to say, and the rest of the movies should not be underestimated. Chen Mubai smiled bitterly.

Liang Wei and Qian Guang are deliberately teasing him, how can there be anything to sit back and relax, he is not so confident in winning the award, after all, there are too many excellent movies.

The works that can be shortlisted for the Oscars are all very good.

It does not mean that the films submitted for review in various countries will definitely pass the Oscar shortlist, but after screening, they can be shortlisted.

Movies sent by some countries may be directly passed at the screening stage.

Therefore, the works that can be shortlisted are all excellent, and Chen Mubai is also a rare situation, both films have passed the screening, so history has been created.

"We really believe that you can, you see how high Mr. Luo's confidence in "Infernal Affairs" is. ”

"That's right. Luo Fan said with a smile: "I firmly believe that "Infernal Affairs" can win awards, and it is not a problem for you to win awards." ”

After all, "Infernal Affairs" was filmed by Chen Mubai, if "Infernal Affairs" can win awards, as a director + actor, he should also be able to win other awards.

Anyway, there is still a "Hypnosis Master" around, and the editors of these two movies are still Chen Mubai, even if they only win a screenwriter award, it is also Chen Mubai's personal award.

Except for the best picture, which is basically difficult to win, the rest of the probability is not low.

All said that Chen Mubai's probability of winning the award is very high, and the probability of winning the award for the best foreign language film and actor is not low, and he can indeed be regarded as a popular candidate for the award.

"By the way, won't Tao Yaoyao come?"

Chen Mubai said: "She can't come to work now, so it is estimated that she will have to come back two days before the opening of the film festival, and I will go to explore the wind first." ”

"Okay, this time you're not here, come with us and have a good time?" Liang Wei said with a smile, quite like a prodigal son.

"You think people are the same as you!" Qian Guang smiled: "Don't take bad children, people have a stable relationship with the young, do you want them to quarrel?"

"I just said take him to the United States to play. Liang Wei explained helplessly, then looked at Chen Mubai and said, "You haven't been to the United States, have you?"

"Nope. Chen Mubai shook his head, he really hadn't been there.

In his previous life, although he had the opportunity to go, he did not go.

He was very bitter when he was a child, and when he grew up, he became a star, and when he had time to rest, he went home to accompany his parents, and rarely went to Europe and the United States.

All told, this was indeed the first time in his two lives that he had been to the United States.

"That's right!" Liang Weiwei said: "I'll take you to the beach to play and sunbathe, there are a lot of hot ...... there"

"Ahem, the scenery is nice and pleasant. Liang Wei suddenly stopped the topic and hurriedly returned to business.

"It's on board!"
