I heard the sudden laughter of the bearded man.

Wang Huan was startled, he turned his head to look at the other party: "You are?"

The bearded man coughed and stretched out his hand: "Master Wang Huan, hello." I'm Mevito. ”

Mevito?

I don't know!

Wang Huan really didn't know this bearded man who suddenly answered him, and he didn't know much about the film industry before. I have basically not seen a few international movies, and as for these movie stars and directors, I don't know them even more.

But Xu Yuan next to him looked at Mei Weituo with a look of admiration.

Wang Huan was stunned: "Xu Yuan, this bearded man is very famous?"

Xu Yuan nodded hurriedly: "Mei Weituo, a famous American director." is only one level behind the most elite directors in the world. He directed three big-budget films that grossed more than $500 million in his lifetime, and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director three years ago. is a real big guy in the film industry. ”

, he's really a big guy.

Wang Huan shook hands with the other party and said strangely in English: "Director Mei Weituo, can you understand Huaxia?"

Mei Weituo said lightly: "I have learned it before, but I only understand it slightly, so I can't explain it." ”

Wang Huan asked, "Why do you think what I just said is a joke?"

Mei Weituo exaggerated: "Master Wang Huan, are you telling the truth? Although Master Wang Huan, your piano and singing skills are very good, and even your "Harry Potter" is very popular with my daughter. But the movie "This Man is from Earth" is still a little bit uninteresting, what really attracts others is its huge revenue ratio and Qingqi's brain hole, as for the picture and various background sound effects, I think it's very bad. If it weren't for the fact that the Cannes Film Festival has always been friendly to Chinese films, I don't think this film would even be eligible for the nomination. ”

"Of course, I'm not questioning you anything. What I'm trying to say is that making a movie is not at all as simple as you think. Especially film awards, such as the Oscars, which are the highest honors, are even more difficult to obtain. Like I've been immersed in the directing industry all my life, and I've only won one Best Director nomination so far. But just a nomination is already a remarkable achievement in the eyes of others. Even today's most outstanding directors and actors are not sure that their films will win Oscars. So you say the Oscars are simple, and I certainly think you're joking. ”

Wang Huan smiled and listened to the bearded man's words.

In fact, there was no disdain or discrimination in Mevito's words, and he was purely telling the truth.

So Wang Huan didn't have much disgust, but said with interest: "Director Mei Weituo, what you said is very right. ”

Affirmed by Wang Huan.

The bearded Mevito became even more energetic, and without looking at the host on the stage, he began to talk eloquently: "And the judges of the Oscars are much more selective than the judges of Cannes." In the eyes of these judges, the box office is not counted as their award criterion at all, and many people are even very repulsive to high-grossing films. In other words, these judges are a bunch of unpredictable guys, and it's hard to win their liking. So every year, countless directors and screenwriters go to great lengths to guess the preferences of the judges, and shoot a movie specifically for the Oscars, just for an award nomination. But even so, the vast majority of people still return in vain. In addition, the Oscars have strict standards. Even if a movie gets many award nominations. But basically you will only win one award in the end. Here's an example: if your film wins the award for Best Director, then there will be no Best Picture and no Best Actor. So it's almost impossible for you to just casually win a few awards at the Oscars. So now, do you think it's easy to win an Oscar?"

Wang Huan nodded seriously: "Well, it's difficult." ”

It's just that when he heard Mevito's words, he began to think carefully about the deep meaning.

Because in Wang Huan's opinion, sooner or later he will take Xu Yuan and them to compete for the Oscar. In order for Xu Yuan and them to become real international movie stars, then they must compete for the Oscar, which is an indispensable process. It has nothing to do with Chongyang, unless Huaxia can have a more high-end film award than the Oscars, but this is simply impossible!

The Oscar is a dream in the hearts of almost all directors and actors around the world today.

The lifelong pursuit of countless people is for the title of Oscar for Best Director or Best Actor, because it represents the supreme honor in the film industry.

For example, Mei Weituo, even if he is only nominated for the Oscar for Best Director once, can get the adoring eyes of Xu Yuan and He Lang. From this point, you can see how attractive the Oscar award is to actors!

However, at this time, Wang Huan remembered a crucial question!

The Oscars are only judged for films in the United States!

Foreign films can only participate in the competition for the best foreign language film!

In other words, if it weren't for an American movie, Wang Huan would not have been able to participate in the selection of Best Director, Best Actor and other awards.

There are only two ways for him to go to the Oscars.

First: Take over American films.

Second: the film made by itself is invested by American companies.

But Wang Huan was unwilling to accept these two methods.

Taking over American films?

In his own system, there are countless good movies that have been tested by the market, and he doesn't make other people's films?

What's more, even if he wants to shoot, with his current reputation in the global director circle, it is estimated that few people will be willing to give him a good script.

Because I don't worry!

As for getting American companies to invest in their own films?

It's even more unlikely!

When Wang Huan is ready to compete for the Oscar films, he must be carefully selected in the system, and none of them can be bad, so that he can't let the American company lie down and make money in the movies that are destined to be box office hits!

But what else can be done besides these two methods?

Unless......

Find someone in the United States and secretly Chen Cang.

Wang Huan thought of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he remembered Chris, huh...... In addition to Gao Zeyu, his second brain-dead fan! is also an entertainment tycoon's brain-dead fan.

"Perhaps, Chris will be able to think of a way when the time comes!"

Wang Huan's heart was cheerful.

He forgot that this was still the Cannes Film Festival awards ceremony, and slapped Xu Yuan on the shoulder and shouted: "It's so decided! Xu Yuan, I'll take you to the Oscars next year and let you get an actor back!"

Mevito: "???"

He just talked seriously for a long time, and he told it all to the dog?

Why did you swear that the Oscars were difficult in the previous sentence, and you will lead your actors to win the best actor in the next sentence?

What about teasing him?
