Just when Peng Yichen took Yu Jing, as well as his own company and Legendary Pictures, and his party were waiting for the Oscar nominations to be announced

Stars and celebrities who have watched the movie "Beautiful Life" in China are also paying attention to the live broadcast of the release party of this nomination.

Through Weibo, they communicated with their fans their views on the film's prospects at the Oscars.

Wang Shi, a well-known real estate developer, commented on his Weibo:

"I don't understand why the five and sixth generations of directors, who are also Chinese directors, who studied and grew up in the mainland, only make boring and tall movies with the main theme. Director Peng Yichen, who grew up in the Star Flag Country, can make an anti-war theme movie like "Beautiful Life", which brings tears in laughter. The beauty of human nature is described so movingly.

And when director Peng Yichen entered the Chinese film circle, it was precisely when the film classification system was opened in China.

We should reflect on whether those frameworks have greatly restricted the thinking and growth of our five or six generations of directors before the introduction of the domestic film classification system.

I can't help but feel incredibly glad that the movie rating system has finally arrived, even if it may be a little bit over!"

And in the Weibo of Ma Yun, another big man known as the first brother of e-commerce, he said directly:

"Bondage cannot blossom into a splendid flower of art.

Peng Yichen received the education of Xingqi Country, caught up with the Chinese film classification system, and achieved great success in the best film market in China in the past ten years.

"Beautiful Life" is definitely the best domestic movie I have ever seen, very connotative, humanistic atmosphere, that kind of laughing attitude towards life, let me use it for life.

I dare to say that with the gradual opening of the Chinese film market, more and more movies like "Beautiful Life" will emerge.

Based on this judgment, our 40 thieves group may enter the domestic film and television entertainment industry in the future. This is the future sunrise industry of the country. ”

In addition to the comments of various celebrities on "Beautiful Life", ordinary netizens and fans are complaining more about their inability to see the premiere of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" on various forums and Weibo.

After all, no matter how good "Beautiful Life" is, it is also a movie that everyone has seen.

What fans are really looking forward to is "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" that they haven't seen yet!

"I heard that "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" is about to premiere in Star Flag Country, but the release date in China is still to be determined, I am angry!"

"Yes, I'm in a hurry to wait, "Dark War" is still playing in the cinema, and I heard that there will be a "Infernal Affairs" soon. Although I am looking forward to the gathering of actors, I am tired of watching police and gangster movies! I want to watch "Double Treasure Fighting Demons"!!"

"I hate Zhao Zexin to death now, I heard that Chen Jing Film Company postponed the release of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" in order to protect "Infernal Affairs", this is simply picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons!"

Domestic public opinion about "Beautiful Life" and "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" was pushed to a peak before the Oscar nominations came out, and the movies on the same period were compared with "Double Treasure Fighting Demons".

Just a few days before the nomination party, Chen Guozhong just announced that he would release a "Love of the Orange Tree" in the summer of several years.

The reporters went directly to Chen Guozhong and asked: "Director Peng went to Xingqi Country to release the film this time, and did not participate in the summer file, do you feel much less pressure?"

Faced with such a question, Chen Guozhong could only reply ambiguously: "My "Love in the Orange Tree" is a literary film, which is completely different from Director Peng's film genre, so there is not much competition. Moreover, in recent years, new Chinese directors have emerged one after another, and "Infernal Affairs" directed by director Zhao Zexin, which will be released in the summer, is also very exciting. ”

After answering, the big director escaped from the reporters' pursuit under the protection of security personnel and assistants.

Chen Guozhong was depressed all day, and that night he made a special phone call across the ocean, complaining to Peng Yichen: "Xiao Peng! I would have known that you would no longer be released in the summer, and I wouldn't be on it." It's okay now, I'm a bargain picker!"

When Peng Yichen heard this, what else could he say, but he could only comfort Chen Guozhong embarrassedly.

He himself didn't expect that his influence in the Chinese film market would be so great now. It's just that the postponement of the release of a movie has made Chinese fans and the media so excited.

Now, the Oscar nominations are finally about to be announced, and fans across China are waiting for Peng Yichen to realize that his original promise is the first time in the mainland to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film!!

And CCTV also did a live broadcast of the Oscar nomination announcement party for the first time.

The whole of China is nervously waiting for the results of this Oscar nomination.

It is as if waiting for a solemn appearance of Chinese films in the world and brilliant success in the future.

……

The sun in Los Angeles is slowly setting over the horizon.

The whole of Hollywood is slowly immersed in the modern atmosphere of glamour and wine.

In the hall of the Chinese Theater, the wine glasses of the guests reflect the shining lights of the venue, which is particularly crystal clear.

Peng Yichen sat with Yu Jing, Robinov, and Denzel.

Beside them, there are also the famous Chinese child star Wang Qing, photographer Zhao Liansheng, soundtrack artist Chen Jiqi and other creators of "Beautiful Life" who have just arrived from China.

The leaders of several publicity and distribution teams of Chen Jing Film Company also sat around them.

"How's that, Tatsuko. Do you think we can be nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film?" Yu Jing said with a glass of red wine and looked at Peng Yichen expectantly.

Peng Yichen is picking up an orange to eat very seriously, staying with the people of Xingqi in the past few days, steak and hamburger every day, and he is not good at eating it.

He now eats a lot of fruit every day to relieve his greasyness.

Seeing Yu Jing's uneasy face, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Of course, the nomination is definitely no problem, and I think we also hope to get the nomination for some technical awards." ”

"Hey...... Director Peng, you are really confident. Denzel, who was eating lobster next to him, heard Peng Yichen's words and said with a smile:

"Then I, the music director of the movie, the results of our public relations in the past few days are not optimistic!!"

"Haha, your PR guys are the judges who hate us, and the results are very optimistic if they are still very optimistic. We're going to get the Oscars straight away. Peng Yichen joked with a smile.

Everyone laughed along.

"Then can I also win an Oscar for Best Score?" said Chen Jiqi, a more cheerful soundtrack artist.

Although this soundtrack is a tune made by Peng Yichen based on "Sky City" in his previous life.

But the music production is all done by Chen Jiqi.

The soundtrack of a movie doesn't just make a tune and it's over.

The music should also be rearranged according to the rhythm of the film, and the score should be followed by the editing of the screen.

Peng Yichen is not professional in this regard, it is completely Chen Jiqi's skill.

Although Chen Jiqi felt in his heart that the soundtrack of "Sky City" made by Peng Yichen was very beautiful and wonderful. Even this soundtrack has won the Best Original Score Award at the Yanhuang Film Festival.

But for a soundtrack artist like him, who has never been out of China, he always thinks in his heart that he and Peng Yichen can't be compared with foreign soundtrack masters after all.

It's not that Chen Jiqi is too inferior, or he thinks too highly of foreign soundtrack artists.

It's just that he has never competed with foreign soundtrack artists, so he can't help but think of his own level as low and unknown foreign soundtrack masters as high.

Looking at Chen Jiqi's unconfident expression on his face, Zhao Liansheng, the cameraman sitting next to him, smiled and patted his arm with his prosthetic leg, and said with a smile: "I think, this time your soundtrack really has hope of winning the award." ”

Chen Jiqi was seen to have low self-esteem, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Zhao, don't laugh at me, even if you win the award, you have to owe it to Director Peng's composition." ”

Chen Jiqi is usually a cheerful and joking person, but his love for movies and seriousness about movie soundtracks cannot be denied by anyone.

In the years when there were no movies to shoot at Chang'an Film Studio, he tried not to let his soundtrack skills regress. Even some wedding companies are willing to take on the soundtrack work, just to maintain their sensitivity to the soundtrack and the picture.

At the beginning of last year, he won the best original soundtrack at the Yanhuang Film Festival with "Beautiful Life", which already made him fall into a dream, and he felt that this life was enough.

Now it looks like there is a trophy that can be shortlisted for the Oscar and even finally win the Oscar for Best Soundtrack.

This made him feel a little confused in his heart whether it was reality or a dream.

This sense of uncertainty made him feel even a lot of fear and unconfidence.

And this feeling of him is not unique to him.

In the entire creative team of "Beautiful Life", everyone except Peng Yichen now has a feeling of both reality and illusion.

They all felt incredulous that they could run for the Oscars.

After all, at the beginning, everyone thought that "Life is Beautiful" could only compete for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

And the public relations team of Legendary Pictures also planned to do so at the beginning, that is, to focus on the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, and not to run for other awards.

But it was Peng Yichen's insistence that finally "Beautiful Life" signed up for five Oscar awards, including Best Soundtrack, Best Art Design, Best Cinematography, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Foreign Language Film.

If it weren't for the organizing committee's non-English film to apply for important awards such as Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, and Best Film, Peng Yichen might have directly applied for ten awards in a row.

Peng Yichen also knows that focusing on one award has a greater success rate. But the reason why he is so persistent in applying for so many awards.

That is why he announced in such a high-profile manner in front of the media that he wanted to conquer the Oscars before he came to the Star Flag Country.

Because he knows that the self-confidence of Chinese filmmakers is far from being established. If he is cowardly, how can he expect to be able to lead Chinese filmmakers to gain a foothold in the world film market.

Therefore, for this Oscar, he must show the momentum that is bound to win, and bring the entire Chinese filmmakers to initially build their own self-confidence.
