The press center and backstage interview room of the organizer of the Oscars are located in the Renaissance Hotel connected to the Kodak Theater, and the two are closely connected by several channels. At this time, the ceremony ended, all the winners were in the backstage interview room, and there were some nominees and award presenters, etc., who were full of voices and flashing lights, which was very lively.

In front of the ABC channel and the Oscar logo and set board, the winners with trophies were smiling brightly and happily, while the photojournalists were busy pressing their cameras, while a large group of reporters gathered around the winners after the photos, asking questions and digging for news.

"Mr. Richards, do you think it's appropriate for the Oscars to be held at a time like this?" Seven or eight reporters in formal suits surrounded Martin Richards, who had just won Best Picture, and someone asked a question that was almost a must-ask tonight. Martin Richards wiped his wrinkled face with his left hand and said, "I don't think there's any direct connection between the two. Personally, I am against war, as long as I am a normal person, but at the same time I am also a supporter of our soldiers. ”

"And what do you think of Michael Moore's performance tonight when he received the award?" asked another white man, with a badge around his neck that identified himself as a New York Times reporter.

Martin Richardston, "Oh God", pressed his forehead and said, "I think Michael Moore's film is very well made and his speech is excellent." But what happened to him tonight? He was a little too hasty, and he spoke too quickly and too quickly, and he should have prepared for it. I think we all yearn for peace, and each of us has our own way of pursuing peace. ”

His old face was a little regretful, and he shook his head and said: "I don't quite agree with Michael Moore's way tonight, I like Adrien Brody, and Wang Yang, they did a great job." ”

The reporters in this circle suddenly chuckled, Wonder Young had been a strong anti-war before, and the nominee's speech at the luncheon was no less light than that of Michael Moore, and of course he was well-founded, and his words were not as harsh and aggressive as "false and shameful", but tonight he made his position in a witty way more liked and accepted.

Seeing Charlie Des mentioning Wang Yang, a black female reporter from The Hollywood Reporter asked, "We know that Wang Yang's second film, "Youth Musical," caused a singing and dancing craze in 1999, for example, it was the annual sales champion of the original soundtrack CD in '99, did this give Chicago confidence?"

"I've heard of 'Singing and Dancing Youth', and it does give us some confidence in the market, but it doesn't matter. Martin Richards raised the trophy in his hand, his old face was very serious, and said: "Chicago is a very good stage play, thank you Bob Forss for ......"

At this time, in front of the set board with the statue of the little golden man in the distance, Nicole Kidman, Adrien Brody and Wang Yang stood together for a group photo, and the smiling faces of the three were taken into a photo with the sound of clicking, and the photojournalists shouted and demanded: "Young, you stand in the middle!", "Is it okay to put your arm around Nicole......'s waist? As soon as the three of them left the set, a large group of reporters rushed up to ask them questions, and there was a must-ask question: "Why are you here?"

"I don't have the slightest qualms about the Oscars. Adrien Brody frowned upside down and said, "It's really difficult to hold such a joyous celebration in a world full of sad news and conflicts. He plucked the hair from his forehead, looked at the dozen reporters, and said, "However, as artists, film industry professionals and actors, we have made a lot of efforts in the past year and contributed to the film industry, and we have reason to celebrate it." ”

The reporters motioned for Nicole Kidman to reply, "Nicole, what do you think?", "Didn't you finish talking on stage just now?"

"Well, if you don't understand these questions yourself, your mind will be in a mess. Nicole Kidman nodded earnestly, Wang Yang and Adrien Brody both looked at her, and she smiled and said, "You should ask yourself first: 'Should I come here?' Is this a little rash? ”

Nicole Kidman pursed her lips as she spoke, naturally raising the trophy and saying, "But at the same time, art is a very important part of our lives, and I'm proud to be an actor. Her expression became serious, and she said, "We are also very aware of what is happening in other parts of the world, and we take it very seriously. ”

"Yang, what about you?" the reporters immediately turned to ask Wang Yang, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes of different colors looked at him in unison, and asked one after another: "You have a strong opposition to the war, why did you come?" and "It seems that you enjoyed the evening, you were really interesting on the stage just now." "Haha, yes, is that the transcript you prepared earlier?" ...... Listening to their questions, Wang Yang held the little golden figure and spread out his hands, pretending to be stupid and said, "You know, uh! I heard that there are trophies made of gold here, so I came." ”

"Hehe!" The reporters suddenly chuckled, and quickly made notes in their notebooks, such answers are called rashness! Adrian Brody and Nicole Kidman all smiled, but they didn't think that the new best director would just finish speaking, this was probably just a joke with a magical promotion, but is it appropriate to laugh at such a serious question?

"First of all, I agree with Adirian and Nicole. Wang Yang's tone became serious, and he seemed to ask a question: "Also, why is the Oscar going to be held at such a moment? We are going to participate? And joking?" He looked around at the faces of the reporters and said: "Because film is art, it is chicken soup for the soul, it brings thinking and understanding, but movie is also entertainment, it brings laughter and beauty." ”

He raised his left hand and pointed in a distant direction, and continued: "Yes, there is a war going on on Earth right now, people are dying, families are being broken...... But does that mean that you need to give up all the laughter and all the goodness, or do you want to give people as much laughter as possible in the midst of the pain, even if it's just for four hours? Life is meant to be like this, laughter, if you don't love life, why fight this war?"

Many reporters immediately raised their eyebrows, and while making notes, they secretly sighed that this magical Yang's speaking skills are so high, it is difficult for people to refute. If the purpose of war is to eliminate the threat of weapons of mass destruction, to protect the security and livelihood of the people of the United States and other countries, and to overthrow the Saddam regime so that the Iraqi people can live a good life, then the ultimate goal of fighting a war is a good life, so why give up the present?

Wang Yang paused, took a long breath, and said seriously: "The war has taken many lives, we cannot forget them and their relatives, we bless them to help them, we cannot forget the living, we cannot forget ourselves. ”

Under the eyes of everyone, he raised his finger again: "I know there are many people who oppose the Oscars, but there are also many, many viewers who want to see this show, including countless overseas audiences, why did Steve Martin just say that to end tonight? I agree with him." This is a traditional festival for filmmakers, and it is also our duty to the audience, and it is part of the movie ticket. So, I'm coming, I'm going to win the prize, and I'm going to bring laughter to everyone. ”

If it weren't for the things in his hands, the reporters and the new actresses would have applauded, and the best director's answer was really different, and it was very thorough and satisfying, and they all nodded and praised: "Oh well said!", "You did it!" Nicole Kidman smiled, this guy really has the ability to speak, Adrien Brody also sighed a little, he had racked his brains for several days in order to prepare for the award acceptance speech that he might use, and this magic Yang seemed to have a paragraph at any time.

"I forgot to mention that it was the responsibility of the actors in front of the camera. Wang Yang's sudden joke made the unprepared crowd chuckle, and he shrugged his shoulders again and said, "But I'm the director, and I have the responsibility to come over and monitor their performance." Dude, you're doing well, good-kiss!" he said, slapping Adrien Brody on the shoulder, and the new actor and the crowd burst out laughing.

After the reporters asked two must-ask questions, they interviewed the three most high-profile winners separately, and more than half of the people surrounded Wang Yang, because he didn't come to the interview room after winning the award, and now they naturally want to ask the 23-year-old best director, there is too much news to dig up!

"I'm happy, not excited? Probably because my eyes tell me it's giving out the Golden Raspberry Award, you know it's so unpretentious around it. "Yes, I'm the best director, but who isn't?", "It's the first time you're on the Oscar stage as an award recipient, and it's very safe, and if you faint, you'll be fine because there are more than 3,000 people staring at you." ”…… Wang Yang was surrounded by them and asked non-stop, answering these questions such as "How are you feeling?", "How do you feel?", etc., while the reporters continued to laugh, tonight Magic Yang was determined to bring laughter, almost every answer made people laugh, and saw his extraordinary humorous eloquence, the reporters knew that after these questions and answers were published, Magic Yang's long classic quotations were about to add a large number of new ones.

"Jan, where are you going to put this trophy?" another blonde white female reporter from the Los Angeles Times asked, which is also a regular question, and Kathleen Zeta-Jones, winner of the Best Supporting Actress award, just said, "I will put this little gold man a little further in the middle of the two little gold figures that my husband (Michael Douglas) won." She smiled again and said, "It's so precious, do you have any special trophy room?"

"That's actually my bedroom. Wang Yang glanced at the ID card on the female reporter's chest, Sofia Baker, and saw that the reporters were all interested and waiting to laugh, so he thought of the answer in a fun direction, paused for two or three seconds, and said seriously: "I have already thought about it, and I am also ready to rearrange all the trophies I won before." I'll put them on the ceiling so I can see them every day when I open my eyes. ”

"Hahaha-" Despite their mental preparations, the reporters blurted out laughter, and Sofia Baker, who asked the question, laughed so hard that her hands trembled, and this laughter also provoked the people around and even far away to look at her.

"Oh my God!" Wang Yang suddenly shouted in surprise, knocked his forehead with a little golden man, looked at everyone and exclaimed: "I forgot one thing, Newton discovered gravity!" The reporters immediately laughed again, Wang Yang frowned and scolded: "Damn, why did you want to find it?" At this moment, the reporters couldn't help it at all, and laughed wildly: "Ahaha-"

Before they could finish laughing, Wang Yang said bitterly: "Newton killed our chance to fly!" The laughter that had just weakened suddenly burst out again, which really made the entire interview room look sideways, and the reporters laughed so much that they couldn't make a note at all, Wang Yang suddenly said: "I thought of a good idea! I slept on the ceiling, and the trophy was on the floor." ”

"Oh oh no...... haha" Everyone found that their laughter couldn't stop at all, and they were looked at by the celebrity guests and peers around them with a puzzled smile, which seemed to be out of shape, but they couldn't stop at all. Wang Yang immediately spread his hands again and said: "I have to go to Toby Maguire and ask, how can I beat Newton?" The laughter of the reporters suddenly became even more crazy: "Hahahaha......"

Tobey Maguire is the actor of Peter Parker, the male lead of Spider-Man.

These hilarious voices finally attracted the many reporters around who were interviewing Martin Richards, Chris Cooper and others, and they all said "sorry for missing me" and walked briskly to the laughter, they naturally guessed what was going on, the best director right now was the magic young from "Juno" and "The Hangover", not "District 9"! They couldn't miss some special news!

The celebrity guests are all curious, and Magic Yang is on a talk show again? They are envious, emotional, and have a good impression of convincing, and some can't help but be jealous. But Nicole Kidman, who is not a superstar, looked at the more and more reporters over there, and thought to herself, even answering questions can make those reporters scream, will fans not like it?

Jessica, who was originally talking to Jennifer Lopez, also came over, and the reporters naturally made way for her, she came to Wang Yang's side, looked at everyone, and asked with a puzzled smile: "What's wrong?" Wang Yang dragged her hand, shook his head and smiled: "It's nothing, we're just talking about the science of Isaac Newton and Einstein Lee." ”

"Hahaha-" The reporters who had just stopped burst into another burst of laughter, and Sofia Baker felt his eyes moisten with laughter, and he changed the "stein" of Einstein to "stan", and Stan Lee is the author of the comic book of amazing superheroes such as "Spider-Man" and "X-Men".

And the reporters who had just come around and Jessica didn't know the connection between the front and back, so they just chuckled suspiciously, after all, this sentence also has its one-sentence effect.

The laughter gradually faded to a halt, but the reporters still had a smile on their faces, and when they heard Wang Yang laugh and say, "Okay, are there any questions?" Immediately, a black-haired white female reporter from "Variety" magazine asked with a smile: "Yang, when you were accepting the award just now, you said that you want to make another science fiction film, and then return to the Oscar stage again! It seems that we will soon see your second shocking science fiction film?"

"There's no doubt that I'm definitely going to make another sci-fi film, and I've already got some ideas for the theme. Wang Yang nodded, this question is not funny, he thought about the recent thoughts, and said to everyone: "But I don't want to stay on Earth for the time being, I want to go out of gravity to travel in the universe, you know I like the theme of spaceships." Well, I don't know, let's see the opportunity! I'm too busy with my job right now. ”

Reporters from more than 20 different media newspapers have written down carefully, and this is a very fascinating question, the first director to win the Oscar for science fiction film, the hope for the future of science fiction films, what will the second science fiction film be? spaceships, cosmos, Star Wars or interstellar adventures? But they know that once they enter the universe, the story pattern of the film is not as small as "District 9", it is easy to shock the visuals, but it is even more difficult to shock the heart.

"How confident are you that you can enter the Oscars again with a sci-fi film?" The black-haired female reporter asked again, and said in a somewhat agitated tone: "There are many directors, I mean science fiction, will you be?" Everyone also looked at Wang Yang in unison.

"Wow! I don't know. Wang Yang pursed his lips with raised eyebrows, let go of Jessica's hand, stretched out his food command and waved at everyone, and said with a smile: "I know what you think, you just want me to say 'No, I'm definitely going to make the Oscars!', right? It's stupid to make such a promise." The reporters suddenly chuckled, and he said seriously: "But I'm a fool, so no matter what, I'll do my best to do a good job!

The reporters suddenly exclaimed, "Oh-" in surprise, Miraculously Yang let go, and found the news! Sofia Baker and the others all wrote excitedly, Jessica frowned slightly, although she was full of confidence in Wang Yang, but is this a bit rash?

"That's a joke. Wang Yang wiped his forehead and said, everyone smiled lightly, so that they would not see it as a joke! The black-haired female reporter laughed: "Yang, you said it yourself." Wang Yang shrugged and smiled, making a bad movie is the key to failure and ridicule, he smiled: "Well, not now, I said it myself." In fact, we are trying our best in every movie, and as for the final grade, leave it to the teacher!"

"But don't worry, although I may not be able to win the Oscar, but ......" he said and looked around at everyone, and said very seriously: "I will definitely win the Jessica Academy Award! Thank you!" The reporters around him were amused again, and Jessica next to him also burst out laughing, making a funny expression of "I can't help him".

Wang Yang raised the little golden man trophy in his hand and said with a smile: "Best Film, Best Director...... Everything!" In the laughter of the reporters, Jessica suddenly remembered his previous words of awarding the award, spread her hands, and smiled regretfully: "You can't win the Best Actress." ”

"Hahaha-" The reporters couldn't help but burst into laughter, Wang Yang and Jessica looked at each other and smiled, and the celebrity guests and media reporters around them looked at each other again. When the laughter was about to stop, Sofia Baker suddenly asked, "Young, do you have any ideas for a musical film now? You know that "Chicago" has just won Best Picture, and many, many movie fans and audiences have been looking forward to your second musical and dance film for a long time. ”

Jessica looked at him like many reporters, Wang Yang frowned, and said suspiciously: "I don't understand, do you want me to make science fiction films or song and dance films?" Everyone laughed again, Wang Yang thought for a while, and said: "To be honest, my interest in song and dance movies has always existed, the reason is very simple, I love singing and dancing, although I am not good at singing." Let's see the opportunity, I have a lot of work now. ”

"mit-21-team" will be released this summer after editing and other post-production work; "Prison Break" will also be broadcast in the fall of this year; there are also producers of several films, and the focus of work soon is "The Demon Wears Prada...... It's crazy!

Wang Yang looked at the reporters and said very seriously: "Don't expect me to say anything to make the song and dance film win the best film again, I'm not a fool." ”

"Hehe!" The reporters burst into a chuckle, in fact, it is enough to have that sentence of "existential interest", these questions and answers are shared, as for how to dig and how to report are different things they do, this is also a war of the media, in terms of paying attention to the next film of the youngest Oscar Best Director, some people will focus on writing about Magic Young to make a science fiction film, some people will focus on writing song and dance films, and of course some people will write "The Devil Wears Prada" that he is sure to direct, and at the same time, the just-completed " mit-21-team》。

"Jan, what do you expect from MIT-21-team?" asked another white male reporter with black-rimmed glasses, a reporter for the Chicago Sun. He added, "Can you predict a box office number?"

"I want the audience to like it and think it's a good movie. Wang Yang gave a standard answer, ignoring the box office predictions, as long as it is a good movie, with proper publicity and the right timing of release, its box office will not be bad. He didn't want to answer any more questions, looked at Jessica who was smiling next to him, and suddenly laughed and shouted, "Hey, Jessica!"

He took her hand and introduced it to the reporters: "This is my girlfriend! I've been looking for her for a long time, I'm sorry! We have to go home." Amid the chuckle of the reporters, the two walked out of the encirclement with a smile and arm in arm.

However, the two did not really leave the Renaissance Hotel, and then Wang Yang took some group photos, and then said some hello to the winners, celebrity guests, and Robert Downey Jr. from "District 9", before leaving the hotel and going home.

Of course, there were many celebratory parties that followed, such as Oscar Night held by Vanity Fair magazine at Morton Restaurant, but Wang Yang didn't plan to attend any of them at first, so he, as the organizer's "key invitee", returned all the gifts he received, and Jessica, who was also the key invitee, smiled and said, "If you don't go, I won't go, we are twins." ”

He didn't like to go to any party after a tiring day, what kind of party to socialize, what was there? More celebrities who were not invited to the Oscars, more reporters...... will get some people's compliments, but he doesn't need to get these recognitions, and besides, he doesn't lack any film appointments at all, just because he was afraid of popularity in the circle. But now there's a war going on in a place on earth, and even the main body of the Oscars is said to be out of place, so what about the lavish celebration party? He just used that as a reason not to go, and one of the reasons why he was genuinely reluctant to go. As for the face of Vanity Fair magazine?

"I don't care!"
