Chapter 297: Oscar (2/5)

At two o'clock in the afternoon on February 27, the front of the Dolby Theater was already crowded.

Media reporters from all over the world blocked the entrance.

There were a lot of Chinese reporters present, and Chinese reporters could be seen in the four interview areas, and the focus of their interviews was, of course, Zhang Junsheng!

"Untouchable" is Zhang Junsheng's film;

"The King's Speech" is a movie invested by Yuehua!

Yuehua Video once again won the exclusive broadcast rights of the Oscar network in China, and the three of them appeared in the live broadcast room.

The short man clapped his hands: "We welcome Xu Yan's beauty first!"

"Thank you, Mr. Gao..."

"Is "The Legend of Chunli" released in April?"

"Yes, April... Mr. Tang, can it be released in China?"

Tang Ningyu hesitated: "... is doing work, we are striving for the release, after all, it is the first Hollywood blockbuster starring Sister Yuehua!"

Xu Yan was very 'upright' and defended: "... It's not a blockbuster, the investment in the first part is $40 million, which can only be regarded as a B-grade production!"

The short man hurriedly continued: "That's also amazing, Chinese actors who can star in series in Hollywood, except for Zhang Ziyi, are you!"

"No, Big Brother Cheng, Li Lianjie, and Bruce Lee have all played the leading roles! Mr. Gao, are you discriminating against women?"

“… No... Absolutely not, I didn't think about it..."

"Haha..."

Xu Yan smiled happily...

"Do you have any plans for this year?"

"The Legend of Chunli" is a trilogy, after the first part is released, if the box office and word of mouth are okay, a sequel should be launched as soon as possible, so I hope the majority of fans can support it!"

Tang Ningyu: "No problem, you are our first sister! I will definitely call on all the staff to support you!"

"Thank you..."

Tang Ningyu continued: "In addition to "The Legend of Chunli", Dingfeng and Yuehua jointly launched "Fast Chase", "Scimitar" and "Killer: 01", Xu Yan will play the heroine..."

“… Why does it sound so violent?"

Xu Yan smiled: "Junsheng said that my appearance is suitable for not taking the usual path, and before the age of thirty-five, it is suitable for glamorous killers and vampires, so..."

"Well, that's a good fit!"

“… Let's take a look at the red carpet..."

……

After years of struggle, the world's largest film manufacturer finally couldn't resist the frenzy brought about by digital technology, and Kodak officially filed for bankruptcy and filed with the court for bankruptcy issues, hoping to terminate the naming rights contract with CIM.

Dolby Laboratories signed a 20-year naming rights contract with CIM, the owner of the Dolby Theatre, which states that the Oscars will be held in the theater until 2031, and that Hollywood & Highland Center will officially be renamed the Dolby Theatre ahead of the Oscars.

By the way, I heard that the big boss wants to buy CIM, and he has offered a price of $1 billion...

Crazy, CIM only has the right to host, they don't own the Oscars, the organizers of the Oscars are the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences!

Lao Wang is spending so much money that it is very likely to trigger foreign exchange controls - his money is really not earned by himself, most of it is in arrears.

"Untouchable" took more than 40 seat tickets, most of them dragged their families with their mouths, Zhang Junsheng originally wanted Zhang's father and Zhang's mother to bring their little sister over, but they were troublesome, so he was the only one...

As soon as I arrived at the interview area, I was immediately stopped by the host of ABC TV.

"Director Zhang, you already won the best director last year, and you have eight nominations this year, which award do you want to win the most?"

“… I want it all," after a pause, Zhang Junsheng smiled and retracted what he just said: "Just kidding, frankly speaking, there is no goal this year, and being shortlisted is already the best reward!"

"Really, there are rumors that you're spending $30 million for this award, is it true?"

“… I really don't know about this, you should ask Catherine, she is the specific person in charge..."

After briefly answering a few questions, Zhang Junsheng led a group of people into the Kodak Theater and sat down in his place.

"Untouchable" is a big hit, so the position is relatively high, the second row.

The situation is clear enough, "Untouchable" not only covers the outpost, but also wins the union award by the way, in this case, unless Zhang Junsheng is revealed to have problems with his private life, otherwise, he will win the best picture!

As the time for the awards ceremony to begin drew nearer, the Dolby Theater gradually quieted down, and many people, including Murphy, turned their attention to the stage.

The whole stage was set up in an extraordinarily gorgeous manner, and the academy had obviously put a lot of thought into it.

In fact, Oscar is also a business, there will be no output without input, and in recent years, Oscar's influence has been declining, and the academy has been trying to reverse this situation.

After all, this thing is directly related to the amount of income of the academy, otherwise they would not restrict actors from participating in awards such as the Golden Globe Awards, so as not to affect the appearance effect of attending the Oscars at that time - to put it bluntly, they are afraid that the ratings will fall...

This year's host is James Franco plus Anne Hathaway...

Anyone can see that these two people are a little stiff, after all, the Oscars are an awards ceremony that the whole world pays attention to, and they are both actors, not professional hosts or talk show actors!

After talking about what they had and what they didn't, Tom Hanks took the stage, and after paying homage to the classic movie, the awards ceremony officially began.

The first award is the Best Art Direction award

……

The process of the Oscars has changed again, and the Best Supporting Actor is actually placed in a later position, aren't you afraid of losing the ratings?

Javier Bardem and Josh Brolin walked out: "Best Original Screenplay and Best Adapted Screenplay were awarded from the first Oscars..."

Zhang Junsheng stared at Josh Brolin's face, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt, and he couldn't help but exclaim: ", isn't this Thanos!"

Scarlett, sitting next to her, asked, "... Has Marvel announced it?"

“… Ah, I'm just saying it casually!"

"Well, I thought you were working with Disney!"

“… Even if I wanted to cooperate, people wouldn't say yes. ”

The timeline is not right, otherwise, Zhang Junsheng will definitely buy Marvel...

On stage, Javier Bardem opened the envelope: "The winner of the best adapted screenplay is..."Untouchable"..."

Zhang Junsheng hurriedly got up, an hour had passed, and it was finally opened...

"I would like to thank the Academy, Summit Entertainment, and the original author of Second Breath, Philippe Pozzo di Borgo. In addition, I would like to thank all the members of the crew and everyone who supported the film. ”

After a brief speech, Zhang Junsheng returned to the audience...

The original script was unsurprisingly won by "The King's Speech", and in terms of awards, it returned to the same starting line.
