Chapter 867: Oscar for Best Picture
Ye Ming didn't say much, and said very seriously: "The real master is not what you can imagine. A performance on stage is just a performance after all. Just like the swordsmen of the West, a few of the real masters will perform on stage. ”
These words also touched the essence of Western culture, and masters will not perform casually, which is also very understandable to the people in the audience.
Martin immediately smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then we wish Mr. Ye to become a real master as soon as possible." After Ye Ming went down, Martin said with a smile: "Now the exciting moment has finally arrived, let's first take a look at the 73rd Academy Award for Best Picture nominations - [Gladiator] [Love Chocolate] [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon] [Never Compromise] [Poison * Deal]." ”
In fact, everyone knows this, and the list of nominees has already been announced. Therefore, at this time, everyone did not feel excited.
If the average big star is not nominated, or invited to present the award, then they will not walk the red carpet of the Oscars lightly. The big stars sitting in the audience are generally related to the nomination award.
And at this time, indeed, the exciting moment has arrived, and everyone is concerned that there must be a decisive moment between the gladiators and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. And Martin is also very likely to cause tension on the scene: "So, let's take a look, the winner of the best picture is. ”
Finally, the award presenter, Hollywood tough guy Arnold Schwarzenegger, took an envelope, opened it, looked at the nervous people in the audience, and immediately narrowed his eyes and said: "Congratulations, Poison Network, congratulations to Steven Sotberg." ”
Sauter is everyone's most optimistic director. It's also a big hit this time, so it's very normal to be able to stand out because of this.
In the congratulations of the crew, Sauter walked on the stage very happily, and cried several times when he said his speech. To be honest, this guy also became famous as a teenager, and as a result, he will only be widely recognized until now, that is to say, he has begun to form his own unique style.
The first time the Chinese movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon went on the expedition, there were some people who couldn't go on the expedition, so on such a problem, the crew and the audience were a little surprised.
Although Li Yu has been prepared in his heart, he has long been prepared. But when he heard that it was not him, he also showed some lonely expressions on his face, and on such a thing, Ye Ming naturally said: "Director Li, this is good news for us, you should be happy." ”
Li Yu was obviously not in a good mood and was reluctant to say anything. However, Yang Ziqiong said: "I originally came to participate in the Oscars. But will not winning an award be good news for us? I think this kind of thing is Ye Ming, you can think that winning the award is good news. Not winning the award would be a failure for us. ”
As the leading actor, Yang Ziqiong also hopes that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon can win awards, and he will have a firm foothold in Hollywood, otherwise his market will decline a lot. Therefore, Ye Ming said that it was good news, whether it was Li Yu or her Yang Ziqiong at this moment. Even Zhou Runfa, these are not good news.
At this moment, Ye Ming said with great certainty: "It's good news for us, I don't deny the box office of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, nor do I deny everyone's efforts." But what kind of effort, Miss Yang, do you think we will be more powerful than the gladiators, and the box office will be higher than the gladiators?"
Yang Ziqiong can't answer this, although she has a little disagreement with Ye Ming, but she is not arrogant, it is impossible for an arrogant person to go from Hong Kong City to Hollywood.
On the contrary, Yang Ziqiong's vision is still very vicious, a female star, if she wants to get a status like Yang Ziqiong in the entertainment industry, it is not an easy thing.
Therefore, on such a question, Ye Ming's words she couldn't answer.
Gladiator, a big production, is very powerful even in Hollywood, and it is a mainstream Hollywood movie, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, at best, it is a relatively good foreign language movie.
Ye Ming saw that Yang Ziqiong stopped talking, and he didn't give up, at least if there was infighting in this place, it was not a wise decision, at this time, Ye Ming said with a smile: "Gladiators didn't win awards, let alone us, and Hollywood will not give the best movie to a foreign language film, this is a matter of Western values."
So we can't get Best Picture, which is good news for us, and the good news is that we're nominated for Best Foreign Language Film, so we have a good chance of getting Best Foreign Language Film. This is also a balancing act in Hollywood. ”
What Ye Ming said also made Zhang Ziyi's eyes light up, originally, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was not good, at this time, Zhang Ziyi's heart was a little lost, and it was the same loss as Li Yu
However, in such a situation, Ye Ming's words gave her a hope. Hollywood is a very xenophobic place, even if the United States claims to be a free country, but in fact, they are very xenophobic, especially Hollywood, a machine to promote American culture, and the White House is also inextricably linked, therefore, in such a situation, directly promote the American spirit, this is what Hollywood needs to do.
It is almost impossible to give a Chinese film award for Best Film, which is inconsistent with American values.
Therefore, what Ye Ming said was also a very simple thing. On such a question, Ye Ming can be said to have a very clear understanding of the rules of Hollywood.
Li Yu was also in a much relaxed mood at this time, and said with a smile: "Ye Ming is right, even if there is the best movie, it is also produced in the two movies of Gladiator and Poison Network, we didn't get it, this thing is very normal, it's strange to get it." ”
There are rules in a place, which everyone has to abide by, the Oscars, that also has its own rules, Best Picture is one of the iconic awards, it must be very cautious, no matter what, it is impossible to give a Chinese movie, this is the rule of Hollywood, Li Yu just didn't think of it for a while, and now after Ye Mingyi said it, he also watched it very openly.
