"The Shawshank Redemption" was shortlisted for seven Oscars.

When the news came back to China, it still shocked many people.

The Oscar can be said to be a pain in the hearts of many Chinese filmmakers. However, in recent years, Oriental DreamWorks has been shortlisted for the Oscars again and again, and even performed amazingly.

Chinese filmmakers can be regarded as raising their eyebrows.

It's just that this time it's much more topical than before.

The film was nominated for Best Actor, but it was Thomas, the black actor, who was nominated, not Deng Kun.

This caused an uproar in domestic public opinion.

After all, the Golden Dragon Award nomination for Best Actor is Deng Kun, and Thomas is nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

In the country, almost everyone thinks that the black character is a supporting role.

At the Cannes Film Festival, Deng Kunke was also nominated for Best Actor for this film, and it is said that he almost won the award.

And now, the Oscars have nominated a supporting actor for Best Actor.

Is there a mistake?

This is the first thought that flashed through many fans.

However, this idea was quickly dispelled.

How could such a low-level mistake be made?

So why is this happening.

So why was Thomas nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor for a supporting role?

Even if he acts very well and his acting skills are highly recognized, he should be nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

Although he played a lot of roles, he was a supporting role after all!

Deng Kun is the hero.

Can't figure it out!

Is this looking down on Chinese movies, or looking down on our Deng Kun?

Isn't this discrimination against Chinese actors?

Domestic fans are dissatisfied.

Naturally, the domestic media are indispensable to express their opinions on this matter.

"Don't overthink it. ”

The crew of "Jurassic Park", Huang Ye patted Deng Kun on the shoulder and said.

Deng Kun was not only depressed at this time, but also a little happy and sad.

Hearing that "The Shawshank Redemption" was shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Actor, he almost jumped up and cheered excitedly.

But then I learned that it wasn't him, but Thomas.

This kind of gap, even if he is in an extraordinary mood, he was depressed and stunned for a while.

Don't be so bullied.

At this time, Deng Kun was still a little difficult to accept.

Thomas was nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor with this film, and Deng Kun will not have any feelings.

But now......

He was shortlisted for Best Actor.

How does this make me, a real male protagonist, deal with himself?

Is this being overwhelmed by a supporting role?

It's a shame to be crushed.

And it was also pressed to be "officially certified" by the Oscars.

What a shame this face!

"Among Chinese actors, it is too difficult to come up with an Oscar winner. Tang Rui shook his head and said.

It is difficult to be an Oscar actor, and it is as difficult as an Oscar actress.

In Tang Rui's view, Deng Kun suffered from non-American nationals.

"What do you mean by the Oscars?" Deng Kun said, "Is it the Golden Dragon Award for slapping the face?"

"People on the Oscar jury don't necessarily pay attention to the Golden Dragon Award. Wen Hao said, "Perhaps, in their opinion, "The Shawshank Redemption" is a film with two protagonists. ”

Slap the Golden Dragon Award in the face, the Oscar doesn't have to do that.

As for the shortlisted for Best Actor, it is Thomas, not Deng Kun, there is no nationality bias here, so it is difficult to say.

Yes, but there is none.

Needless to say, how Thomas acted, it was undoubtedly excellent.

But is Deng Kun bad?

In Wen Hao's opinion, Deng Kun may be a little better than Thomas by virtue of the advantages of his role.

Of course, Wen Hao himself may also be biased because of his proximity.

It's not clear.

However, Deng Kun undoubtedly suffered some unwarranted disasters.

"Depressed!"

Deng Kun smiled a little self-deprecatingly and said.

"Actually, you can think on the bright side. Huang Ye said with a smile, "Your popularity in North America may have increased because of this!"

"Don't be this kind of popularity!" Deng Kun shook his head and said, "The domestic media and fans are biased towards me, do you think the media and fans in North America will be the same?"

When Huang Ye heard this, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

I'm afraid the media and actors over there will be biased towards Thomas!

"Why do you want to do so much, shoot with peace of mind, the company will definitely take action to solve the impact. Tang Rui said with a smile, "There are so many people in the country who are unhappy for you, so you can be content!"

She has known Deng Kun for many years, and her relationship is not bad.

"Yes!" Deng Kun smiled and said.

Hearing Tang Rui say this, he seemed to feel much better.

After all, his roots are in the country.

This film, the company's attention to it, is no worse than Zhang Pu's "Transformers".

He played the second male lead in this film, in addition to being optimistic about the box office of this film, he also wanted to have a good relationship with Wen Hao.

He can't let that affect the film.

Wen Hao didn't make many movies when he entered Oriental DreamWorks, but almost all of his films were big productions, and they have gone international.

To be precise, the second film went international.

He feels that he is the only one of the directors in the company.

How many films Lin Mu made at Oriental DreamWorks, and each film was a box office hit, but even if it was the next film, it was said that it was only for the domestic market.

Will Oriental DreamWorks express dissatisfaction with the Oscars because of this, and even directly absent from the awards ceremony?

Apparently not!

Not to mention that Jiang Yun and others will go to the Oscars, Deng Kun is estimated to go.

Oriental DreamWorks goes international, and it also needs to borrow the power of Oscar, if the reaction is so extreme because of this matter, it will be too capricious.

People can't be capricious, and even more so in companies.

However, crisis PR still needs to be done.

At least this film can't affect Deng Kun, nor can it affect Oriental DreamWorks.

Oriental DreamWorks' public relations department is still very powerful.

The topic of the Oscar shortlist passed quickly.

It is not so difficult to accept that Thomas was nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor with a "supporting role".

Of course, it is simply impossible to completely eliminate the topic.

On the Internet, there are still people who say that the Oscars discriminate against Chinese filmmakers.

Of course, some people say that if Oscar is really discriminatory, then Thomas may not be much better.

He's not white, he's black.

In China, it was suppressed by Oriental DreamWorks' public relations, but in North America, it didn't cause much repercussions at all.

As for the dissatisfaction of Chinese fans?

Will the Oscars care? Will the media and fans in North America care?

In the past, the momentum of Huaxia movies hitting the Oscars was getting bigger and bigger, but in the end, they failed again and again, and the trouble of Chinese fans was not as bad as this time?

Perhaps, I just care.

There is no doubt about the impartiality of the Oscars.

Of course, no award can be absolutely fair.

And every award has a bias, which is absolutely normal in Zhang Pu's view.

Zhang Pu doesn't think there's anything wrong with Thomas who was nominated for Best Actor.

The original version is still good, not to mention that it has been "Huahua".

In addition, the rules for evaluating each film festival are different.

In the previous life, there was still a difference between the Golden Horse Awards and the Academy Awards?

Zhang Pu didn't pay much attention to it, and soon put it behind him and put all his energy on the filming of "Transformers".

The filming of this film is obviously a little different from what it used to be.

Comparatively, it is much slower.

At the end of March, the Golden Dragon Award ceremony arrived, and Zhang Pu finally decided to go.

Although he knew that it was very possible to go to soy sauce.

However, the respect that should be given is still to be given.

In addition to Zhang Pu, Ye Fan and others participated, even if Jiang Bin could continue filming after Zhang Pu left, it would be difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

The actors are gone, shoot a fart!

Fortunately, there wasn't much time delayed, and there was not much loss for the crew.

"Director Zhang!"

Zhang Pu followed the crew of "Wolf Warrior 2", and it was Ye Fan who walked the red carpet with him.

As soon as they entered the venue, they ran into Shen Ran.

"It's not bad!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "I thought you would have to lose weight after the Chinese New Year!"

"Fitness, now I love fitness. Shen Ran said with a smile, "I haven't trained the eight-pack abdominal muscles, but there are still six." ”

Before Shen Ran filmed "Shaolin Football", he lost weight for a period of time, in order to train his abdominal muscles, but he suffered a lot.

"Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" actually has action scenes, and he also trained for a period of time for this.

At that time, he was still in good shape.

But after the film was completed, after a Spring Festival, Shen Ran gained a lot of weight.

In order to shoot "Shaolin Football", I had to lose weight and fitness.

Zhang Pu's words naturally had a bit of ridicule.

"When is Director Lin going to shoot "Kung Fu"?" Zhang Pu asked casually.

Shen Ran is the male number one in this film.

Dong Qin, who played Qiu Xiang in "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", played the heroine Amei.

"It should be August, Director Lin asked me to stay for three months at that time. Shen Ran said.

Zhang Pu nodded.

It was about the same amount of time he had guessed.

The preparation of this film may not take that long.

However, "Shaolin Football" was released in July, and he obviously wanted to wait for the release of this film before starting it.

If the film is launched before this, the publicity before and after the release of the film will inevitably conflict with it.

Boot it up earlier?

The preparations haven't been done well, and Shen Ran has no schedule!

He wants to record "Ace vs. Ace", and he still has a film to be released during the May Day schedule!

Why "Transformers" filmed Chen Feier's scene first undoubtedly also has this consideration.

"Director Zhang, do you think that "Shaolin Football" can break the box office of "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance"?" Shen Ran suddenly asked.

"I'm not a god!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "This film can be regarded as the popularity of the World Cup, and the box office should not be bad! However, if the box office wants to break the 3 billion mark, it is difficult to say." ”

"Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" has been released, with a cumulative box office of more than 2.9 billion, which is a little higher than the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2".

But in the end, it failed to break the three billion mark.

As for "Shaolin Football"?

The original box office is amazing, and there is even a box office myth.

The box office in Xiangjiang exceeded 60 million, and the cumulative global box office exceeded 50 million US dollars.

And this box office is still under the condition of being released in the mainland.

Of course, this box office has little reference value.

The market is different, the main creative lineup is different, and it's really hard to say what the box office will be.

However, Zhang Pu is still very optimistic about this film.

Three billion is difficult to say, but two billion is still very promising in Zhang Pu's view.
