Chapter 189: Golden Globe Awards
"The Fault in the Stars" is the script of that Korean drama with a very Korean drama, which tells the story of love, life and death between a pair of young men and women!
The script was beautifully written, and Shen Ming still remembered many lines in it: When I looked up at the sky, I inexplicably felt that everything would get better, and this cruelty would come to an end.
And 'if you want a rainbow, you have to go through a heavy rain.' ’
Josh smiled reservedly: "It's a pity that it was pushed off by Fox!"
"Huh? Why?"
"They are not optimistic about the market prospects of this kind of literary romance film!"
Josh Bonn smiled wryly...
Shen Ming was silent for a moment, and Kominsky's voice came from his ears...
Then he looked up and smiled: "In recent years, I have thought a lot, everyone around me is talking about the box office, talking about awards, but sometimes, movies have nothing to do with numbers, movies are laughter and tears in the dark, movies are roses blooming on the ruins, movies are the ignorant dreams of teenagers, movies are memories of lovers in light and shadow, movies are the most beautiful freeze frames in your and my lives, it can only be associated with our beautiful lives and hearts!"
Without waiting for Josh Bonn to speak, Shen Ming continued: "I am an investor in this drama, and I must shoot it!"
His tone was very sincere, with the solemn expression of a pure movie lover on his face, and he couldn't see what Kominsky had just said that "The Fault in the Stars" would sell at least $40 million at the box office...
"Good!"
Josh Bonn nodded directly.
With Shen Ming's commitment and capital injection, he is sure to shoot the film!
Of course, the male number one must be Shen Ming...
The surrounding area was cleared, and Milk Xiao asked in a low voice, "Who was that just now?"
"A new director!"
“… You're going to invest in him?"
"Hmm... It's not that I invested, I mainly promised him to star, and let Sister Xin help find someone about the investment!"
Shen Ming sat down, roughly explained, and by the way, told the script of "The Fault in the Stars": "I like this story very much..."
"I like it too..."
“… But the heroine has to be white..."
Nan Xiao rolled her eyes: "I didn't say I wanted to act, I mean can I invest?"
“… How much money do you have to invest?
"More than 34 million..."
“… I'll go, where did you get so much money?"
Shen Ming was stunned!
"I received 17 endorsements last year, and there are a bunch of commercial performances and variety shows, I am very rich!"
Milk Xiao is really rich!
According to the latest celebrity brand endorsement ranking announced at the end of last year, Milk Xiao ranked ninth with 17 endorsements...
Shen Ming only has 15 endorsements, not in the top ten, but his endorsement fee is much higher than that of Milk Xiao.
"Okay, if you have money, invest it, I don't think this movie will lose money!"
……
On the afternoon of the 2nd, six o'clock.
Los Angeles.
The sky was still bright, and there was not a dull twilight.
In front of the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, the media and fans have lined up on both sides of the long red carpet.
The Golden Globes are televised live every year and are all in the lobby of the Hilton Hotel.
The original partner was CBS, but because of the scandal, the organizers turned to NBC and have been working together ever since.
At this time, the red carpet host is pulling black star Jada Smith to rub the heat...
Well, Jada Smith is Will Smith's wife, and it was she who fired the first shot, and then a bunch of affirmative advocates followed.
"In the past, it would be a shame if your name didn't show up at the Oscars. For me, the Oscars are nothing more than a party!"
"For two consecutive years, the 20 actors nominated for the acting category are all white, how is it possible... Can't we blacks perform?"
The host asked: "But Shen Ming also got the Oscar nomination for Best Actor." ”
"He's not black!"
Jada Smith said with certainty!
Then, an elongated courtesy car slowly came to a halt, and four people got out of it, Dan Gilroy and Renee Russo, as well as two very young Orientals.
It was Shen Ming and Cheng Xiao.
Shen Ming wore a black suit, while Milk Xiao wore a white long skirt and carried a white diamond-encrusted bag...
Then, the reporter from China on the right hurriedly took a picture and shouted in Chinese by the way: "Look here!"
I feel like I'm dreaming of going back home...
Keep smiling, walk on the red carpet, wave skillfully, and when you reach the interview area, you are stopped by the host: "Shen, is this your first time participating in the Golden Globe Awards?"
"Uh, yes!"
"How do you feel the odds are?"
"I don't know, I feel good to be here!"
"So what do you think of the blacks protesting the Oscars en masse?"
“… I don't know, I'm not black and I'm not white!"
……
Actually, Brother Ming can be nominated for the Oscar, it's really shit luck!
The list of five nominees, Eddie Redmayne "The Danish Girl", Brian Cranston "Trumbe", Cassie Affleck "Manchester by the Sea", Michael Fassbender "Jobs" and Shen Ming's "Nightcrawler"...
Look at it, are these people stuffed with Shen Ming particularly twisted?
The Oscar judges actually feel awkward!
However, the gang of blacks made too much trouble, even if there were many respected actors who opposed this voice: we can't vote for him because he is black, the title is an affirmation, can we say that although he is not good enough in comparison, he is black, so I chose him.
It doesn't work, black first is political correctness.
So, some judges simply nominated Shen Ming!
Didn't you say that the Oscars were not diverse enough? Then let's nominate a Chinese, I see what else you can say.
Hehe, the old white man's idea is too broken, and the so-called diversity of people does not really want you to diversify, but black people first!
Do you know what black people first mean?
The one who should be scolded still continues to scold, and Shen Ming is a little embarrassed...
Almost everyone is asking him what he thinks about this situation!
What can he think?
Do you want to make it clear that I think black people are racist?
This kind of politically incorrect thing must not be done!
I can only use my best Tai Chi to push this kind of thing over, and I basically don't express my opinion on this matter, I really can't push it over, just say I'm not black or white...
Sure enough, as soon as the Golden Globe Awards opened, host Rich Gervais opened with this story.
"We all know that there are some problems with this year's Oscars, many black actors are boycotting, saying that it is not diverse enough, but the Oscars are also very aggrieved, it has nominated Asian actors, why is it not diverse enough? Is it to be divided according to race, one nomination for whites, one nomination for blacks, one nomination for Asians, one nomination for Latinos? What if there is one left?"
Rich Gervais asked himself, "To gays!"
