Chapter 272: The Most Beautiful Boy on the Oscars
The Oscars are one of the most influential film awards in the world.
And this year's Oscars definitely broke the record for attention.
Because there are countless fans in Huaxia.
This year, Huaxia fans are no longer just non-caring spectators as in the past.
If there are Chinese-language films shortlisted, then they have a sense of participation.
In the past, the Oscars were broadcast at most in China, and there was not even a broadcast, at most, the relevant news was reported afterwards.
And not many people paid attention to the news.
But this year is different, the movie channel directly bought the live broadcast rights and will broadcast the entire Oscars live broadcast.
Some people say that this Oscars is the most influential.
The number of people who follow may have doubled.
Who made China a populous country!
At the beginning of April, this year is the Oscars much earlier than in previous years.
The awards ceremony was held at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
It officially started at half past six in the evening.
At this time, it was already the next morning in Yanjing.
However, it coincided with the weekend, which also attracted many fans to sit in front of the TV.
Zhang Pu and his entourage arrived at the scene very early.
At film festivals, the red carpet is indispensable.
It's a place where celebrities show off their style.
Zhang Pu was not so particular, and he didn't think he could dress up.
However, Xu Jiahui asked for it, but she did not refuse.
At the beginning, Zhang Pu wore a costume with Chinese characteristics, somewhat similar to the "Zhongshan suit" in his previous life, of course, there is no such title in this world.
It's just that I found out later that I collided with Jiang Yun and Zhang Ke.
It's not scary to hit the shirt, whoever is ugly is embarrassed.
Among the three, Zhang Pu's appearance definitely beat the two of them. But this kind of clothes seems to be more flavorful the older you get older.
Then he changed into a set of Tang costumes.
Zhang Pu is in good shape, and this dress was also customized by Xu Jiahui for him, and he is quite stylish to wear.
It was only when I arrived at the scene that I found that the embarrassing scene reappeared.
He collided with Li Zhen.
Perhaps martial arts practitioners like to wear similar clothes.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the two have different colors and styles of clothes.
It looks similar, but it's very different.
Li Zhen developed in Hollywood, has his own residence in Los Angeles, and does not live in the same hotel as Zhang Pu and others.
What he was wearing, Zhang Pu and the others naturally didn't know in advance.
Li Zhen is the star of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and is extremely well-known in Hollywood.
As for Zhang Pu......
I'm sorry, but I don't know many people.
However, when Zhang Pu and Xu Jiahui walked on the red carpet, there may not be any cheers around, and media reporters didn't pay much attention.
But the voice in China is much stronger than Li Zhen.
Whether it is "Farewell My Concubine" or "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", they are all films invested by Zhang Pu's screenwriter.
Without Zhang Pu, would there be these two films?
In the eyes of domestic fans, Zhang Pu is the most beautiful Chinese filmmaker at the Oscars.
Perhaps, he will be the most beautiful boy in the entire Oscars.
Zhang Pu didn't get much attention on the red carpet, and so did Xu Jiahui.
They don't have much international fame at all.
Entering the venue, I found my seat, with Zhou Chaohua on one side and the aisle on the other.
Xu Jiahui did not sit with Zhang Pu.
After all, it is not domestic, and the organizers don't know that the two of them are lovers, and even if they do, they probably won't arrange the two of them together humanely.
"When are you going to shoot "Infernal Affairs"?" Zhou Chaohua said to Zhang Pu with a smile.
When he took "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and matched Li Zhenzuo, he never thought that this film would be so powerful and won nine Oscar nominations.
The script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is good, but when he takes on the role of Luo Xiaohu, it is inevitable that he will be a little demoted.
Of course, no one now says that he has demoted himself to the coffee position, but that he is as wise as a torch and laments that he will provoke a show.
Many media even asked him if he knew that this film would be so awesome.
You know what?
I know what a fart!
Zhou Chaohua took this scene, in addition to the good script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and Chen Huatao's favors, he just wanted to sell Zhang Pu, a young director with great potential, a favor.
Of course, he does not deny that there is also a reason for "Infernal Affairs".
Who would have thought that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" would be so dazzling?
"Are there any recommended directors?" Zhang Pu asked with a smile.
"You're not going to shoot?" Zhou Chaohua was stunned for a moment and said.
Such a good script, is he willing to give it to others?
"I'm already working on my new film. Zhang Pu shook his head and said, "This film is in post-production, and there are a lot of special effects. If I did, I guess I'd wait until next year. ”
It's estimated that there will be no drama next year.
His next film is basically set.
Deng Kun and Zhang Chu co-starred.
After attending the Oscars this time, Deng Kun is estimated to have entered the Oriental DreamWorks.
The two leading actors of "Infernal Affairs" have been decided, so naturally it is impossible to make this film.
"Is there anyone in Xiangjiang who is good at this kind of film?" Zhang Pu then asked.
Zhang Pu's words have been made very clear.
That is the director of the film "Infernal Affairs".
I don't know why, Zhou Chaohua was immediately relieved when he heard this.
This film is written by Zhang Pu, and it has been deeply branded with Zhang Pu's imprint, if it is still directed by him, then is this film still a Xiangjiang movie?
"There are many directors who are good at this kind of film. Zhou Chaohua smiled and said, "I'll go back and see who has a schedule." ”
Zhang Pu nodded.
It is estimated that it will take two or three months for Chen Huatao to shoot "Looking for the Dragon".
However, the preparation of the film also takes time.
Even if preparations start at this time, after Chen Huatao finishes filming "Looking for the Dragon", "Infernal Affairs" may not be able to start filming.
The two chatted like this, and the awards ceremony soon began.
Even if the same film festival awards the first award, it is not the same, but the heavyweight awards will basically be put later.
This year's Oscars were awarded first for the best cut.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was also shortlisted.
Unfortunately, it was not awarded.
It's a pity.
However, surprises soon followed.
"The winner of the best soundtrack is: "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" from Huaxia, Zhang Pu! Congratulations to ......"
"Yay!"
Whether it was the crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" or the crew of "Farewell My Concubine", when they heard that Zhang Pu won the award, they immediately cheered.
Zhang Pu got up with a smile, hugged Zhou Chaohua next to him, then stepped onto the podium, took the trophy, thanked him, and then walked to the microphone and delivered an acceptance speech.
"I'm Zhang Pu, I'm from Huaxia!" Zhang Pu said in Chinese.
"It's a pleasure to win this award, but it's also a bit complicated. Zhang Pu then said in English, "When I bring this award back to China, I don't know how many fans will ridicule me for not doing my job." I'm a director, and I hope to be on this podium again and win the best director!
Zhang Pu's acceptance speech made many people in the audience stunned.
The young man said he was a director, and he wanted to win the Oscar for Best Director?
Chinese filmmakers are all smiling.
They don't think Zhang Pu is talking big there.
As for domestic fans, they naturally understand better.
Even, after Zhang Pu got off the podium, related topics rushed to the hot search.
The hottest thing is not "Zhang Pu became the first Chinese filmmaker to win an Oscar", but "Zhang Pu is not doing his job"!
The award presentation continues.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" went on to win Best Art Direction, as well as Best Cinematography.
Not long after the awards ceremony began, the film won three Oscars, and the country was jubilant.
The crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is naturally the same.
Subsequently, Zhang Pu missed out on the best movie song.
This made Zhang Pu a little disappointed.
Although the song did not come to him, he still hopes to win the award.
However, Xu Jiahui performed on stage, and that bit of loss was washed away.
Xu Jiahui became the first Chinese singer to appear on the Oscar stage, and this qualification is definitely a halo for Xu Jiahui.
The awards continued, and Zhang Pu didn't have much hope for the next awards.
Perhaps, the best foreign language film is still possible.
As for the rest, it is unlikely to be possible.
"The winner of the Best Screenplay Award is: Oh, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" from China, Zhang Pu! Well, this name is somewhat familiar! Congratulations ......"
"Wow!"
There was another burst of cheers, but Zhang Pu was stunned.
It was definitely not what he expected.
He remembered that the original did not win the award. He never thought he would win this award.
Maybe it's because the competitors have changed, maybe it's because of the explosion of his character, or maybe it's ......
Whatever the reason, it's worth rejoicing when you win the prize!
"Congratulations!"
hugged Zhou Chaohua next to him again, and Zhang Pu immediately stepped onto the podium.
"Thank you! I just said that I hope to win the best director next time I get on this podium. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "I didn't expect it to come up again so soon, although it is not the best director, but I am also very surprised." I hope that next time I get on this podium, I will win the best director......"
When everyone in the audience heard this, they laughed.
Of course, many more people are still surprised.
It's not that no one has appeared on stage twice at the Oscars, but it's the first time I've seen someone like Zhang Pu.
Best Soundtrack and Best Screenplay, winning both awards at the same time, it is estimated that it is the first time it has appeared.
If you win the best soundtrack and the best movie song, people won't be so surprised.
Because there are people at the Oscars who have won both awards.
What's even more surprising is that listening to what he means, it seems that his profession is still a director.
However, there is also a person who is in an extremely complicated mood at this time, and even has a bad premonition in his heart.
That's Sean Sommers, Hollywood's quasi-first-line director.
Zhang Pu won the Oscar for Best Screenplay, which was absolutely disastrous for him.
He felt like he was in trouble.
Zhang Pu was previously unknown in the Western film industry, and he said that he plagiarized his script, who would believe it?
But it's different now.
He is the Oscar for Best Screenplay, and if he says that he plagiarized his script, there are definitely many people who believe it, and it will definitely attract a lot of attention.
Do you want to talk to him?
