Chapter 768: Night Talk (2/4)
After a few people in the box chatted for a few words, the atmosphere didn't know what was going on, and suddenly became a little deserted, as if they couldn't find any topic.
And now it's late at night, and the appearance of Tao Lao and Minister Guo who don't seem to want to leave makes Yang Ming feel secretly curious.
However, Yang Ming didn't wait too long, and Tao Lao broke the silence.
"Xiao Yang, your two movies last year earned a lot of glory for our Chinese film industry!" Tao Lao said slowly.
"Well, Tao Lao, you really won the prize, I'm just lucky, I believe that others can do better than me. Yang Ming was taken aback when he heard this, and then quickly said modestly.
Hearing Yang Ming's words, Tao Lao and Minister Guo both looked disapproving, if there is really someone in the Chinese film industry who is better than Yang Ming, then in the past few years, Hollywood will not lose face, and various box office records will be occupied by others.
But Yang Ming's modest attitude still made the two of them feel a little more comfortable, and Secretary Wang's face also looked a lot better.
In the past few years, several mentions in the reform plan of the Chinese film industry were all built by this secretary Wang, but now it seems that the effect is not good, it can be said that he has received a lot of criticism in the film association recently.
Hearing that Yang Ming did not show his arrogance towards other people at present because of his success, this also made Secretary Wang feel a little better, and the young man in front of him still had a better view of the overall situation.
Tao Lao took a sip of the wine in front of him, then smacked his lips and asked Yang Ming: "It's the Oscars in another week, and you will also participate in it then, right?"
Yang Ming was shocked when he heard Tao Lao's question, and then looked up at the other party seriously, as if he didn't care about whether he went to the Oscars or not, he was angry, and after thinking about it, he said calmly: "Actually, it is the movie "2012" to participate, after all, this movie was filmed and distributed by Hollywood Oriental DreamWorks, but the actors and storylines in it are basically Chinese backgrounds. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Ming couldn't help but smile, he remembered that some time ago, Barber called him to tell him that when DreamWorks signed up for "2012" for the Oscars, the Oscar organizing committee looked unhappy.
Although "2012" looks no different from a local Chinese movie on the surface, the producer of this movie is the Oriental DreamWorks on the Hollywood side, but the boss and the Oriental DreamWorks on the Huaxia side are just the same person.
According to the rules, "2012" certainly has the right to participate in the Oscars, and the tax is not paid in vain.
"To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the head of DreamWorks in Hollywood was obsessed with the Oscars, I really wouldn't want to participate in this award. Yang Ming showed a disdainful look.
Seeing Yang Ming's appearance, Tao Lao couldn't help but be curious: "Hey, don't you care about the Academy Awards? After all, this is one of the three major film awards in the world!"
"Tao Lao, do you think it is possible for a Chinese film to win at the Oscars? Even if there is, it is estimated that it is just an award that others don't look down on, and sending it to us is at most just a comfort, hehe, the people of the United States are not so kind to give up the cake to share with us. Yang Ming said indifferently.
As Yang Ming's words came out, several people present showed expressions of approval, and they naturally knew a lot about Oscar's insiders.
Whether it is the Oscar or the Golden Dragon Award, it is basically impossible for a foreign film to win the award, at most it is the best foreign language film, just look at tonight's Golden Dragon Award, in fact, everyone is the same.
It's just that now that "2012" is hung with the title of Mizi, the Academy Awards organizing committee has no reason to reject this movie, otherwise Barber will definitely hold the Oscar high to death.
Didn't Hollywood Oriental DreamWorks pay taxes to the United States?
Tao Lao seemed to hear a different meaning from Yang Ming's words, and couldn't help asking, "Does your cake statement have any meaning?"
Yang Ming was stunned when he heard this, looked at Tao Lao, and then looked at Secretary Wang, and thought to himself, isn't it, these two don't know this truth?
It seemed that seeing Yang Ming's question, Minister Guo said on the side: "Xiao Yang, if you have something to say, you can say it directly, don't worry." ”
With Minister Guo's assurance, Yang Ming did not hide it, and there was nothing worth hiding it, so he opened his mouth and said directly: "Hollywood's Academy Awards are actually a big cake, it doesn't matter which of their film companies in China has a harvest, anyway, the meat is rotten in the pot, but if foreign film companies want to move their cheese, it is simply an impossible thing." ”
"After all, the star-making ability of the Academy Awards is too strong, and the award-winning films, whether it is the actors and directors, or the production company behind it, are a very way to increase their influence and popularity. ”
Yang Ming calmly and calmly said some of his views and evaluations about Hollywood in his previous life.
seemed to see the incomprehension on the faces of Tao Lao and the three of them, and he did not hesitate to analyze the essence of the Academy Awards in his own words.
The Academy Awards, as society changes, are becoming more and more commercial.
In fact, this society is originally a commercial society, and the Academy Awards are becoming more and more entertaining, and the annual Oscar day is a grand event for the entire Hollywood, and it is also a good opportunity to increase Hollywood's popularity around the world.
From the momentum before the official start of the Oscars, various media rendering, and then the red carpet, and the red carpet is not as simple as the Huaxia Golden Dragon Awards, there is also a so-called Avenue of Stars, especially in recent years, the atmosphere of the Oscars scene is more entertaining and funny, making this originally strict event more and more relaxed and entertaining.
Of course, it is impossible for all Oscars to be awarded to commercial films and reject art films, but the proportion of commercial films in award-winning films must have an absolute advantage.
Hearing Yang Ming introduce the situation of the Academy Awards word by word, especially the changes in the past few years, he mentioned it several times in front of several people, focusing on the introduction.
"Xiao Yang, wouldn't this be too frivolous?" Secretary Wang didn't hold back after all, but still raised the question in his heart.
"Hehe!" Yang Ming smiled indifferently, but the smile had an inexplicable feeling, which made Secretary Wang feel very uncomfortable, but at this time he heard Yang Ming say again: "Movies are originally entertainment activities used by the people to relax, if there is no audience to watch the live broadcast, I think the Golden Dragon Award is no matter how authoritative and influential it is, it will end one day! Any activity that is divorced from the masses will not succeed!"
In the end, he remembered the famous slogan of our party in his previous life, and he couldn't help but say it.
