Chapter 487: Getting What You Want (Final)

Will "Inception" allow Zhang Pu to get what he wants and win the best director?

This is the hottest topic after the celebration banquet of "Inception" broke six billion at the box office.

Zhang Pu's voice is so high that no one can match it.

If no work is released, fans can push the topic of "the Golden Dragon Award owes Zhang Pu a best director" to the hot search.

Zhang Pu now has works, and he has an amazing reputation, which is popular all over the world.

So what else is there to argue?

"Inception" can't let Zhang Pu win the best director, so who else is qualified to win the best director of this Golden Dragon Award?

Zhang Pu won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Director, which is definitely well deserved.

I am afraid that the question is whether he can win the Oscar for Best Director.

Will it win the award, not to mention for the time being, this year's Golden Dragon Award shortlist was announced, and "Inception", a film that is still being released, is undoubtedly the most dazzling.

"Inception" was nominated for 13 awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Cut, Best Sound Effects, Best Score, Best Art Direction, Best Action Design, and Best Visual Effects.

Zhang Pu's previous films are not without such eye-catching. However, the call for the various awards for this film is undoubtedly extremely high.

Of course, the most popular among them is naturally the best director.

"This time it should be nine out of ten. Wang Bo said to Zhang Pu with a smile.

"It's not like the dark horse hasn't appeared. Zhang Pu said.

"Dark horse?" Wang Bo pouted and said, "If the Golden Dragon Award doesn't give you the best director this time, and there are any dark horses, I'm afraid the credibility will be questioned." ”

That's not an exaggeration.

Zhang Pu won the best director, which is definitely expected.

Almost everyone thinks that this year's best director is Zhang Pu's bag.

"Are you exaggerating that?" Zhang Pu smiled and shook his head.

He actually felt that he was nine out of ten this time.

But before he got his hands, he was inevitably worried that he would be happy when the time came.

"I'm not alone. Wang Bo said, "I have seen the other three shortlisted directors, and their works have all been seen. There is no doubt that good movies are good, but the combined influence may not be able to catch up with a fraction of "Inception". ”

Is there an advantage to influence?

There really is.

When the jury is having a hard time choosing between the two films, one has a huge influence and the other is unknown, it is easy to guess which one the jury will prefer.

They also have to take into account the reaction of their fans.

If you blindly prefer unpopular movies, I am afraid it will affect the credibility.

"Let's not forget that Inception was also nominated for Best Picture. Zhang Pu said.

Wang Bo frowned, but he couldn't say anything for a while.

Sharing the cake can be seen everywhere, and this is especially true for film awards. "Inception" seems to have a better chance of winning Best Picture than winning Best Director.

"At the Golden Dragon Awards, it is not the time to win both Best Director and Best Film. Wang Bo said.

Is there a film that wins both awards?

There really is!

But when this happens, it's when there are no competitors.

Does Inception have no competitors?

Some.

It's just that the fame and influence are difficult to compare with "Inception".

But no matter how good "Inception" is, this film is biased towards commercial films.

Whether it is the Golden Dragon Award or other awards, literary films are more favored by the judges than commercial films, and it is naturally easier to win awards.

Two months after the release of "Inception", the domestic film schedule has gradually shrunk, while many foreign countries and regions have already painted.

No matter how long-lasting the popularity of a film is, it is limited.

The film's box office potential is also largely exhausted. The domestic box office exceeded 6.3 billion, almost increasing the box office record set by "Wolf Warrior 2" by one billion.

The cumulative global box office has exceeded $2.2 billion, and it is difficult to estimate the $2.5 billion mark. However, even so, it will bring down the gap of nearly half a billion dollars to the Hollywood blockbuster in second place.

With such an amazing box office, it naturally made a lot of money.

There are many investment companies in this film, but Oriental DreamWorks naturally takes the lion's share of the box office.

However, the most profitable thing for Oriental DreamWorks because of this film is obviously not the box office, but the skyrocketing market value because of this film.

As for the other earnings, that's nothing.

For example, the movie became popular, and Zhang Chu became famous in the world and was promoted to the list of international first-line stars.

Then after he became popular, film appointments and endorsements naturally followed.

And they are all international-level film contracts and endorsements.

In addition, Ye Fan, Deng Kun and others are naturally the same.

In this film, Zhang Pu doesn't know how much Oriental DreamWorks earns. Naturally, he didn't know how much he made with this film.

The film was directed by him and written by him.

The director and screenwriter, he has box office dividends, which is personal income and has not been included in the company's income.

And he gets global box office dividends, not just domestic.

Money is really just a number for Zhang Pu today.

On the Huaxia rich list, he is already in the top five.

What's more, Zhang Pu is still a person who doesn't enjoy much.

There are very few places where he spends his money.

The market value of Oriental DreamWorks has been growing, but no matter how it grows, it doesn't seem to be as good as digital technology.

Even if Zhang Pu's stake in digital technology has decreased a lot.

The Golden Dragon Awards ceremony has not yet arrived, and the Oscar shortlist has been announced.

"Inception" has won many Oscar nominations as everyone hoped.

There were nine nominations for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Sound Effects, Best Visual Effects, Best Cut, and Best Score.

Chinese films haven't been represented at the Oscars for several years.

"Inception" won so many nominations, which can be regarded as sweeping away the depression of the past few years.

At the end of March, the new Golden Dragon Award Ceremony was held.

As always, the movie channel is live.

However, what they didn't expect was that the ratings of this year's Golden Dragon Awards live broadcast far exceeded the past.

Perhaps, too many fans want to see Zhang Pu get his wish at this Golden Dragon Awards and win the best director.

Will Zhang Pu get what he wants?

Zhang Pu and Xu Jiahui walked on the red carpet, and countless fans shouted Zhang Pu's name on the side.

"I'm afraid the pressure on the Golden Dragon Award this time. Xu Jiahui said with a smile.

Give it, it seems to have the meaning of being kidnapped by fans.

If you don't give it, the impact on the Golden Dragon Award is too great, and no one can afford this responsibility.

There is no doubt that the Golden Dragon Award is fair and just.

Is it really not affected by fans?

I'm afraid it just wasn't big enough before.

The impact this time is clearly staggering.

If you don't give Zhang Pu, countless fans will question it. Who can stop the trend of the times?

Zhang Pu or Oriental DreamWorks directly advertised that they would no longer participate in the Golden Dragon Awards, is the Golden Dragon Award an authoritative award for Chinese films, or the most influential Chinese film awards?

I'm afraid not.

"What does this have to do with me?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.

Xu Jiahui smiled and stopped whispering on the red carpet.

She actually heard that Zhang Pu was a little resentful.

"There are rumors on the Internet that if you don't win the award, you may not bring your works to the Golden Dragon Award in the future. ”

Entering the venue, Wang Bo said with a smile.

Zhang Pu smiled.

If he really didn't win the award, he might have really accepted his fate.

It's actually not bad to be an uncrowned king.

Are those who win the best director better than themselves?

Not to mention fans, I'm afraid those directors themselves won't think so.

The awards ceremony began quickly, and Inception got off to a good start and won the Best Visual Effects award.

There is hardly any suspense in this award.

Subsequently, "Inception" won the awards for Best Cut, Best Cinematography, Best Sound Effects, Best Action Design, and Best Score.

The soundtrack of this film basically follows the original version, and it is naturally Zhang Pu who goes up to receive the award.

"Thank you!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "Although I have won this award several times, who is afraid of more awards......

Zhang Pu's acceptance speech was brief.

Perhaps, he knew he had a chance to take the stage again.

Subsequently, he won the Best Screenplay Award for "Inception".

Zhang Pu took the stage for the second time.

Tang Rui was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Award but failed to win, and Ye Fan was nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Award, but he also did not win the award.

This made Ye Fan's fans feel sorry for him.

It's not the first time he's been nominated for an actor award and hasn't won it.

However, then Zhang Chu was crowned emperor with his wonderful performance in "Inception".

After Best Actor, there are only two awards left for Best Director and Best Picture.

The award presenters for Best Director were Zhang Ke and Jiang Yun.

Both of them are top directors in the circle, and they are both well-known abroad. The two of them presented this award, which seems to have some special significance.

After the shortlist flashed on the big screen, the live picture of Zhang Pu and the other four shortlisted directors appeared.

"I'll announce!" Jiang Yun said to Zhang Ke with a smile.

"Why?" Zhang Ke seemed to disagree.

The two of them scrambled to announce, but the people in the audience were stunned.

Aren't the other award presenters all humble? Why are they both competing to make announcements?

Of course, it is no secret that Zhang Ke and Jiang Yun have been friends for decades.

It is not uncommon for the two to scold each other in public from time to time.

"I'm his teacher!" Jiang Yun said.

"Didn't I teach him?" Zhang Ke said, "At most, you teach in the classroom, but I teach in the crew......

Jiang Yun and Zhang Ke argued on stage.

In fact, without their publicity, everyone in the audience already knows who it is.

"Bang Bang!"

There was no announcement, and there was applause from the audience.

Zhang Pu smiled, and the other three shortlisted directors also laughed. It's just that the smile is a little reluctant, although I know that the odds of winning the prize today are very low. was really taken by Zhang Pu, and he was still a little disappointed.

"The winner of the Best Director Award was: "Inception", Zhang Pu ......"

Although Zhang Pu had already guessed, he still walked to the podium above the announcement.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Pu looked at the audience, took a deep breath, and said two words.

"I have debuted for many years, filmed countless films, and won many film awards. Zhang Pu continued, "However, I once said that what I want to win most is the Best Director award. Because I'm the director!"

"Now I've finally got what I wanted. Zhang Pu said, "I hope there will be a chance to win this award again in the future." Well, of course, there are not too many awards. ”

"I feel the affirmation of "Inception" by the Golden Dragon Award, and thank everyone in the crew for their dedication. Zhang Pu said, "Of course, I also want to thank my teachers Director Jiang Yun, Director Zhang Ke and others for teaching me......"

This time, Zhang Pu's acceptance speech was much more than the previous two times combined.

Although there are many acceptance speeches, no one thinks he is wordy.

Subsequently, "Inception" won the best director of this year.

There is no doubt that Zhang Pu's film has become the biggest winner of the Golden Dragon Awards, and even won awards such as Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor.

Zhang Pu has also become the biggest hot topic of this year's Golden Dragon Awards.

Among them, the media with the title of "Zhang Pu got his wish to win the best director" does not know how many.

This seems to be just the beginning, though.

In mid-April, the Oscars were held.

Zhang Pu won seven Oscars for "Inception", including Best Foreign Language Film, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Cut, Best Visual Effects, and Best Sound Effects.

And Zhang Pu also became the second Chinese director to win the Oscar for Best Director after Jiang Yun.

Zhang Pu got what he wanted, but his footsteps did not stop there, but continued to move forward.

Oriental DreamWorks has also gradually developed into the world's top film and television companies.

Ten years later, Zhang Pu's layout was completed.

Warwick Pictures' "Marvel Universe" movie has swept the world, and the artists under Oriental DreamWorks have also gone international with "The Avengers" and become world-renowned first-line superstars.

The "Oriental Dream Theme Park" created by Oriental Dream Factory has also gone abroad and settled in Los Angeles, which is about to open all over the world.

With this, Oriental DreamWorks has also become the world's top film and television company, with a market value of nearly $200 billion.

Zhang Pu also topped the domestic Forbes wealth list.

And he started from scratch, wrote a legend, and was worshiped by countless people.
