Chapter Twenty-Eight: After the Fact (4/6 Subscription Requested)
At the award ceremony, Cheng Xiao just followed Shen Ming to stand up, applaud and then sit down...
When the camera brought her to her, she was also smiling.
But she could feel Shen Ming's loss...
How to say it, Nan Xiao also worked hard in South Korea for a few months, although there is a name of the cosmic girl, but there is always a gap between the members - if it is not my race, its heart will be different!
Why is such a thing as Our Lady called a ''?
It's because it's unrealistic!
Otherwise, why should the car be on the same track and the book on the same text?
Qin Shi Huang is really awesome!
Ahem, it's getting farther and farther away...
Milk Xiao and Shen Ming can walk together, the main reason is that their three views are very consistent, in essence, she is also a nationalist, plus the experience in South Korea, she can understand Shen Ming...
"Let's go. ”
"Where are you going?"
“… Aren't you hungry for the Vanity Fair party after that?"
Nearly three and a half hours of award presentation time, plus a two-hour red carpet ceremony beforehand, a full six hours...
Everybody is hungry!
……
Yes, Shen Ming didn't win the Oscar.
So what?
La La Land has been a success, with 14 nominations and six trophies!
This year's biggest winner!
The global box office broke $300 million - the mainland has not yet been released, North America has reported $160 million, and after the Oscars, it will definitely get another 20 million or so.
How much does it cost to make?
$28 million!
Shen Ming is not only the largest investor, but also enjoys a 15% revenue share - note, it is a revenue share, that is to say, in addition to the ticket income, the copyright and peripheral profits have his 15%!
According to rough estimates, the film brought him at least $100 million or more.
What else do you want?
So, at the famous stand party afterward, Shen Ming smiled heartily...
The annual Oscars are not only a feast for movies, but also a carnival for the fashion industry.
The Vanity Fair celebration party and awards ceremony took place before and after, and the invited guests were basically Oscar nominees and winners, and of course, some superstars...
The so-called fashion circle party, there must be a bunch of supermodels, each leg is one meter long, and the clothes are very simple - it is very cold in Los Angeles at the end of February!
I really want to warm them up!
It's a pity that the supermodel has no chance with Shen Ming, and he is followed by an oil bottle, and he has no time to clone at all.
"Congratulations Damien!"
"Yes, congratulations!"
Six awards, in addition to Sister Shi's actress, the heaviest is of course the best director!
It's been a busy few months, and it's time to enjoy it...
Damien was drunk.
"Hi, Shen!"
Shen Ming was drinking with the photographer of the crew, and a voice came from behind him, and Ming Tsai turned his head: "... Bradley Cooper?"
"Thank you for investing in Scott Silver's Fighter!"
“… That's a good script!"
"Hmm. Cooper invited, "Let's get together when we're free, Todd Phillips is my good friend!"
“… OK!”
After a brief chat, Bradley Cooper returned to the crew of "A Star Is Born"...
"A Star Is Born" was destined to be a disappointment, with only eight nominations for Best Original Song.
This IP, "The Birth of a Star" is one of Warner's treasures, as early as 1937, there was already a first generation of works, and in 1954 there was a second generation, in 1976 the third generation, and this year it is the fourth generation.
The main plot remains the same: the story of Jackson, a country music star who is becoming obsolete, helps Avery Elli, a young girl with dreams of stardom, realize her musical dreams.
Of course, there is also love in it...
In a sense, it's similar to "La La Land".
However, "La La Land" accommodates the elements of singing and dancing too well, and it beats "The Birth of a Star"...
Ms. Turtle appeared without makeup, but she still hasn't beaten Sister Stone!
"Fighter?"
"It's a work about a boxer, a project that screenwriter Scott Silver took out when I was filming Joker..."
Shen Ming briefly explained, Damien obviously didn't have much interest in such a subject, and diverted the topic...
It's almost twelve o'clock in the evening, and the whole venue is still very lively...
"Let's go back. Cheng Xiao proposed, "If you drink again, you will be drunk." ”
"Hmm. Shen Ming nodded, he didn't want to lose his temper in public, and beckoned to Damien and a few people, "You go on, I'll go first." ”
The two of them didn't care about anything else, left the party site, and went straight back to their accommodation...
……
For Shen Ming, this Oscar is just the most ordinary encounter.
As always, run along...
But for many American media outlets, the Oscars were definitely the front page headlines of all the entertainment news the next day.
For example, "The Hollywood Reporter": "After reading this list of Oscar winners who are neither more artistic nor too commercial, I can summarize in one sentence: the changes in the film industry and industry have forced it to change, but this 91-year-old stubborn does not want to change in his heart." The aesthetics and value system of the Oscars have not improved much, so that the "black" "Black Parties" can only run with it, and the "Green Book" that is "not white enough, but not black enough" is still chosen. ”
"'La La Land' Loses Best Picture, Good Movie Loses to Political Correctness Again!" – Los Angeles Times
However, the New York Times and the Guardian fixed their eyes on Spike Lee: "The best film was announced at the awards ceremony as "Green Book", and black director Spike Lee got up and left angrily, and after being stopped, he returned to his seat, and listened to the acceptance speech of the creator of "Green Book" with his back to the stage - why does the Oscars continue to indulge in the fantasy of racial harmony?"
Yes, the United States has so many problems, why do you still have spare time to care about the affairs of other countries?
Obviously, the rain girl has no melon, so she has to intervene...
These have little to do with Shen Ming...
Anyway, none of the mainstream media in North America mentioned Shen Ming, but the domestic media, all kinds of regrets.
……
The next morning, Shen Ming accepted an exclusive interview with Fujisun Entertainment, on the one hand, in response to the Oscars, and on the other hand, he also promoted a wave of "La La Land"...
"La La Land" was officially released on March 1.
"There's nothing to regret," Shen Ming frowned slightly: "After all, the Oscar is an American award, in fact, it is enough for me to get three nominations!"
"In a place like Hollywood, important roles are generally given to white people, and the rest of the white people's roles are given to black people, and black people have their turn to pick Asians, so there are some face-painted characters. ”
"In the future, the focus will definitely be on the country..."
"Jumanji, they also wanted to find first-line white actors at the beginning, but no one wanted to take over, and then I picked up the leak..."
"Of course, we will continue to cooperate, let's read the script, if it's the kind of work produced by the assembly line, forget it... From an actor's point of view, the face-painted character is really not attractive at all!"
"La La Land, it's a beautiful movie... But its theme belongs to song and dance films, and I'm not optimistic about how high the box office it can win in the mainland. ”
"Of course, if people who like love can go and see it, then the movie is really beautiful!"
After a brief interview, the reporter left.
Shen Ming packed his things and prepared to leave for Paris...
Milk Xiao, you have to stay, "Maniac" is about to start filming.
