After checking many of the world's Academy Awards application rules on the Internet, Su Luo had a rough idea in his heart.

The "Best Foreign Language Film" is similar to that of the previous life, a country or region can only apply for one film, which is selected by a national agency, and more than 90 countries select and submit works to participate in the competition every year.

And this award is given to the country and not to the film director himself, so its value goes beyond the scope of art, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a national victory to win this award.

Since we are an animated short film, Su Luo's focus is on the animated short film award.

In order to win the Best Animated Short Film award, you must first be shortlisted, and then ten animated short films will be selected from the list to enter the second round, and these ten animated works will have the opportunity to compete for five nominations, and then choose the final winner from the five nominations.

Animated short films are not limited to countries and regions, and individuals can also sign up, but if they are selected by national institutions, they can be directly shortlisted for the list.

If a non-state organization selects and recommends it, it's okay, but it's very, very cheating.

First of all, they will have a large exhibition of animated short films, and after that, the five most popular works will enter the list!

At that time, any company or individual animated short film can participate, and the animated short film is different from the large-scale animated film, and the college students can make it themselves, which means that there will be thousands of animated short films on display at the same time......

An animation exhibition that anyone can participate in means that there may be any works in it, and the attention will not be very high.

And in the massive number of animated short films, the audience of the selection is still so busy, guess if your animated short film will be noticed?

Unless the cartoon that has won a bunch of honors and awards internationally can attract some attention, the audience of other works will not even watch it.

To put it bluntly, the Oscars used this animation exhibition as a fill-in competition, just to show that we are fair and just, and everyone has a chance image project.

No wonder those guys were so excited when they heard the rumors that they were going to be selected for the Oscars, and they really wanted to participate in the Oscars, and the way to choose and send them by state institutions was the right way.

"What are you looking at?"

Brother Pao glanced at Su Luo's computer screen and asked.

"Oh, look at the Oscar rules. ”

"Are the rumors out there true? Have you received a notification from the Film Bureau?"

Brother Pao became excited all of a sudden, this means a lot to DreamWorks!

"You're really funny, people really came to notify, and you were the first to know, did you receive a notice?"

"Well, it seems like that's the case, hey, it's a matter of time before we get chosen!"

"Tsk, when did you start to be so confident!"

"Haha, of course I have confidence, you don't look at our voices in the crowd, no, someone can't sit still first, and now I'm waiting outside to see you. ”

"Where is sacred?"

"The people at CTV. ”

"Uh, what are they doing?"

Su Luo's eyes became weird,

"I don't know, anyway, I said that I was looking for you to talk about something important, can you see it?"

"See, see what they say!"

......

In the reception room of the branch, a person who looked like a leader had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Su Luo coming in, he hurriedly got up, which flattered Su Luo.

As the saying goes, don't stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling person, after both sides are polite to each other, go straight to the point.

"I don't know what's the matter with me?"

"Then I'll be blunt, your film and television dramas and cartoons are deeply loved by the audience, and the phones of our channel have been blown up by the audience, so ah, I came here this time to talk to you about the right to broadcast your cartoons and TV series. ”

The corners of Su Luo's mouth curled up, and he listened with interest.

CTV's director of the film acquisition department sighed in his heart, in fact, at the beginning of this negotiation, it means that they have lost, but the situation is stronger than people, and at the request of the leader, now he can't help but bow his head, and continue with a smile,

"We had a little misunderstanding before, misunderstandings, they can always be solved through communication, isn't it?

"That's it, netizens like to talk nonsense, what CTV wants to ban DreamWorks!"

Su Luo shot the case and roared angrily!

CTV's director of the film buying department has a bright eye, there is a play, this Su Luo is still very good!

however

Su Luo grinned and continued,

"But the joke that DreamWorks is going to ban CTV, it's absolutely true, why do you think I'm going to sell you the broadcast rights?"

Moment!

The scene became awkward.

Su Luo is really like the legend, it is too difficult to deal with, and the words have reached this point by him, there is no need to hide it, you can show the sword with a real knife and a real gun.

The director of CTV's film buying department was as uncomfortable as eating a fly, and after taking a deep breath, he said calmly,

"There are rumors that DreamWorks Animation's short film is going to be selected by the Film Bureau to hit the Oscars, and if we can sit down and talk about it, the rumors are not rumors. ”

Is this the real bargaining chip in this negotiation?

Su Luo was stunned for a moment and then said,

"Dare you still influence the selection list of the Film Bureau?"

The director just looked at Su Luo meaningfully, and didn't answer directly, but the meaning was very clear,

"We are here with sincerity, we make concessions first, the previous misunderstandings and grievances are written off, DreamWorks can also go to the Oscars smoothly, and have the opportunity to win glory for the country while also gaining fame and fortune, why not?"

"Hehe, your influence is really great. But as far as I know, going to the Oscars isn't just the way to be sent by the film bureau, right?"

"Do you know how difficult it is to get into the big list without going through the selection route? Over the years, there have been few excellent cartoons buried there? Besides, being sent for selection means being recognized by the state, which is a great honor in itself. ”

Su Luo is right, there is another way, that is, to go to the animation exhibition of the animated short film audition.

DreamWorks' animation is very popular in China, but when did the arrogant Lao Mei look at Chinese animation, who knows if you take it out?

If you want to get attention, please take a bunch of awards in the world first, and get international recognition first, otherwise please put a hundred hearts, no matter how good your animation is, no viewer who participates in the selection will notice you.

In all fairness, the director has no doubt that DreamWorks Animation can win many awards, it is really very good, but the time is pressing, are you still in time?

If you don't take this shortcut, you go straight to the Oscars' make-up match? Then you must be kidding me!

So, either you don't go to the Oscars, or you promise us.

"You're trying to blackmail me?"

"I don't dare to say that, it's just that we take a step back first, and I hope you can take a step back too, this is an opportunity for us to reconcile, isn't it?

The director's heart is already very broken, for them, it is obvious that we have suffered a big loss, why are you still not satisfied?

"What if I don't take this step back?"

"You don't want to give up this opportunity to get it, do you?"

"Give up? Oscar, what a great opportunity, I can still win glory for the country, why should I give up? Oscar, I must go!"

"Yes, we should all focus on the big picture, and we have everything to talk about!"

The director breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly smiled.

However, he still underestimated Su Luo's cautious eyes, it's okay not to use this to stimulate Su Luo, maybe there is really something to talk about, now,

"But before winning glory for the country, I want to fight for myself first!"

Su Luo smiled and patted the director's shoulder,

"Thank you for the rumors, I'll tell you another joke and bring it back to your leader. ”

"DreamWorks' animated shorts don't need to be escorted by the Film Bureau, I'll go to that animation exhibition with a!"

"Sending off!"
