Chapter 782: Going to Los Angeles

"What?

Jiang Xia was stunned.

What was on the TV was the Spring Festival Gala.

"Why did you suddenly say that the Spring Festival Gala was over?" Jiang Xia asked in amazement.

"I suddenly want to see you at the Spring Festival Gala. Gong Shan said, "You have been to the Spring Festival Gala once, right?"

"Well, you sang a song Wishing you prosperity and called me to it temporarily. Jiang Xia said.

Gong Shan said: "Let's go next year, it is estimated that my illness will be better next year, and it is time for people to see the artists in our studio." ”

"Okay, if you want me to go, then I'll go to the Spring Festival Gala next year. Jiang Xia said.

This kind of thing is the Spring Festival Gala, others may have to watch the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala or something, but Jiang Xia doesn't need to watch it, he can receive an invitation to the Spring Festival Gala every year, but he has never agreed, and he just can't receive the invitation, he wants to go to the Spring Festival Gala for five minutes, and he will definitely want to come, and he doesn't have to trouble his uncle, Jiang Ming can do it.

Gong Shan said: "When I go back, I have to prepare an album, don't forget." ”

"I don't think I can go back this year. Jiang Xia said, "When Peng Peng and the others come back, I should go to Los Angeles to join the group, and it would be good if I could finish filming in 2 years." ”

"Shoot well and strive to win an Oscar for Best Actor. Gongshan said.

"It's enough, I play the second male lead, and I have the route of being the male number one, I didn't choose it. Jiang Xia said, "It's better to let people stand in front, even if the box office is smashed, it's not my name." ”

"Is the script on you?" asked Gong Shan.

"In my case, there must still be revisions, and now it's just the first version of the script. Jiang Xia said, "It is estimated that it will be changed while shooting, Hollywood blockbusters, the script is very important, and it usually takes three or four times." ”

"It would be nice when I could be in a Hollywood blockbuster. Gongshan said.

"I'll give you a ride first, and when it's done, I'll send you to the stage. Jiangxia said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to get on your way. Gong Shan said, "Strive for me to be able to act in your Hollywood movies when I am forty years old." ”

"Strive for you to be famous all over the world when you are forty years old. Jiang Xia said.

Gong Shan smiled: "Okay, it's up to you." ”

"Call home, it's almost time. Jiang Xia looked at the time of the Spring Festival Gala and said.

"Yes. Gong Shan nodded.

The two of them each called home, and Jiang Xia also opened a video with Jiang Chenxi and listened to Jiang Chenxi's lecture.

"Dad, if you don't come home for the New Year, you have to buy me a toy car when you come home. Jiang Chenxi was serious.

"No problem, Daddy will definitely buy you a lot. Jiang Xia patted his chest and reassured.

"Well, then I'll forgive you. Jiang Chenxi smiled, "Dad, kiss one." ”

Jiang Xia: "mua~"

Jiang Chenxi: "mua~"

hung up the video, and Gong Shan also finished the phone call.

"When are your funks going to be released?" Gong Shan asked Jiang Xiadao.

"In two days, I want to see if I can find someone to shoot the MV and release it after I finish the MV. Jiang Xia said.

"How are you going to shoot the MV?" asked Jiang Xia.

"I don't know, I don't know how to shoot now, I don't know anyone. Jiang Xia said.

"Haven't you been here before?"

"That's in Los Angeles, this is in New York, both places. Jiang Xia said helplessly.

"Go to Los Angeles, I'll accompany you. Gong Shan said, "I happened to be shopping around the United States." ”

"Okay, we'll leave tomorrow. Jiang Xia said.

He has already recorded "Upton Funk", Gong Shan followed him to record it, and knew what level Jiang Xia's song was, although the lyrics and singing tone were a bit unexpected to her, but it was indeed a very good song, it was a relatively rare style, as Jiang Xia said, it had the potential to be fire.

How to shoot the MV, of course Jiang Xia knows, that is, it is not easy to choose a backup dance, and you have to train dance, so the dance of the waves is generally not easy for people who are a little cheeky to learn.

Fortunately, Jiang Xia's trip was to Los Angeles, and Jiang Xia had a lot of acquaintances in that place.

Gong Shan has not left New York much in recent years, let alone flown directly from the East Coast to the West Coast, and is still going to Los Angeles, the seat of Hollywood.

Before getting on the plane, Jiang Xia called Andrei.

"Oh, you're coming to Los Angeles, welcome, now on the plane, okay, I'll pick you up." "Andre promised to come down over there and come to pick up Jiang Xia.

"That friend of yours?" asked Gong Shan.

"Yes. Jiang Xia said, "Let's go." ”

The plane landed in Los Angeles, Andre came to pick up Jiang Xia, saw Jiang Xia, hugged Jiang Xia, and then shook hands with Gong Shan.

"You are Shan, I heard Jiang mention you. Andrei said.

"I've heard Jiang Xia mention you, Mr. Andre, hello. Gongshan said.

After getting in the car, Jiang Xia said: "I came to Los Angeles to find a team, shoot a MV, and help me contact a band, the members of the band are not limited in age, under 50 years old, but they must be able to dance, and they must find a venue, retro." ”

"Okay, tell me the requirements, and I'll arrange them. Andrei said, "What song are you singing?"

"You'll know when you look back. Jiang Xia said.

"Chinese or English?" asked Andrei.

"English. Jiang Xia said.

"Oh, you're going to challenge the billboard?" understood Andre for a second.

"yes, let's see where we stand. Jiang Xia nodded.

"It's promising, by the way, your film is full of golden armor, and this year's Oscars should be shortlisted for some awards. Andrei said.

"What can be shortlisted?" asked Gong Shan.

Andre said: "If you can be shortlisted for two or three awards, the best foreign language film will definitely be shortlisted, and then the best costume is possible, the best film is not very hopeful, but there is also some hope, the best director has a certain hope, the other hopes are not too big, oh, the best screenplay is also hopeful." ”

"So many?" Jiang Xia said in surprise.

The original version of "Full of Golden Armor" was only shortlisted for the best costume, and there was no hope for anything else.

And at the Xiangjiang Film Awards last year, although "The City Full of Golden Armor" had more than a dozen nominations, there were not many awards, and the best director Jiang Xia failed to win, but won the best picture and the best actor and actress. No one expected that Jiang Xia would not win the best director.

According to reason, Jiang Xia's movies won the Best Actor and Actress, Best Screenplay, Best Picture, and Best Supporting Actor, and all the awards were won, but Jiang Xia was not given a Best Director, how can he bully people like this?

However, the Xiangjiang Film Awards are so bullying, Jiang Xia was nominated for Best Director again and failed to win, which is already his second loss.

In such a sluggish market of Xiangjiang films, it is really unreasonable that such a masterpiece as Jiangxia failed to win the best director.

However, the Academy Awards awarded the best director to an old director, an old director who has never won a best director in a lifetime of filming, which can be regarded as an explanation to the public, Jiang Xia still has hope, the last movie of the old director, how can he give face.

When Jiang Xia himself knew about this matter, he didn't care much about it, regret that there were, but to the old director, he also felt that he should, he grew up watching the old director's movies when he was a child, and Jiang Xia would make trouble for others, but for the old director, Jiang Xia could only be convinced.

The big drama on the Xiangjiang side fell, and Jiang Xia's personal awards only won one Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor.

Now it seems that there is still hope for best director on the Oscar side?

"Yes, especially for Best Director, I heard that the jury is discussing this, and if your film is shortlisted, you will be the youngest foreign director to be nominated for an Oscar. Andrei said.

"The youngest director nominated for an Oscar was thirty years ago, right? I forgot the director's name, but I remember that he was nominated for an Oscar for Best Director at the age of 24 years and 44 days. Gong Shan said.

"That's amazing. Jiangxia said.

"It's amazing. Andrei said.

Neither stayed in a hotel in Los Angeles, but at Andrei's house.

"Hey, Jessica didn't live with you?" Jiang Xia said in surprise.

"No, we're not married. Andre said, "When the filming of Fall 2 is finished this year, we will get married next year." ”

"Can I finish filming this year?" Why do I feel a little hanging?" Jiang Xia said, "Have you read the script?"

"I watched it, it should be about the same, this one is a unified special effects after filming, which is different from the previous one that does post-production while shooting. Andrei said.

This "Falling 2" is still Andre as the assistant director, so he has also read the script, so he can naturally estimate the approximate filming time.

"How long do you have to shoot the music video?" asked Andre.

"I can definitely shoot it in a month. Jiang Xia said, "It depends on what kind of team you find is like." ”

"That's no problem, I'm sure I'll find the best for you. Andrei laughed.

Jiang Xia and Gong Shan stayed at Andre's house, and the next day, Andre went to contact Jiang Xia with the band and venue, and Jiang Xia took Gong Shan to visit Los Angeles.

However, while shopping, Jiang Xia was recognized.

After a long period of busy work, Jiang Xia pulled Gong Shan out of the crowd.

"Whew, it's exciting. Jiang Xia said.

"It's fine. Gongshan said.

In terms of the experience of being surrounded by fans, Gong Shan is more experienced than Jiang Xia, so Jiang Xia feels excited, but Gong Shan feels average. There are still few people abroad, but there are more people at home, and there are many people who come to contain them.

Now that I've been recognized, I can't go shopping, so I can only go back.

The news of Jiang Xia's coming to Los Angeles was in the news on the same day, because the Oscars are imminent, and all the media think that Jiang Xia's coming to Los Angeles is to build momentum for "The City Full of Golden Armor", so that this movie can get more seats at the Oscars.

The next day's newspaper reported on the incident.

"Jiang Comes to Los Angeles, Meaning Golden Globe Awards and Oscars!"

"The Golden Globe Awards will be held the day after tomorrow, and the first Chinese movie star will be ushered in!"

How many awards can Chinese blockbusters take away?

"The Face of China at the Golden Globes!"

"Jiang, a magical person!"
