Wendi Deng divorced Murdoch in 2013 because her affair with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair was discovered by Murdoch. Wendi Deng is still living a very nourishing life after the divorce, first showing affection frequently with a little fresh meat, attending various occasions and activities, and recently having an affair with Putin, she is a super capable woman.

Wendi Deng has a good relationship with Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu, and the Angel of Justice is involved in Zhang Chunru and the Nanjing Massacre. Deng Wendi naturally will not refuse, she also said, "I have a lot of friends in the film industry, and I will help you canvass for votes when the time comes." ”

Zhang Ran hurriedly said, "Don't be, asking you to come forward to hold a party is itself a side game, and if you come out to canvass again, this is too obvious, it is a violation." ”

Wendi Deng said puzzledly, "I'm not a crew member, I just think the movie is good, recommend it to a friend, this can also be considered a violation?"

Zhang Ran said with a smile, "A few years ago, there was a movie that rushed to the Olympics, and Julia Roberts had nothing to do with this movie, but she did a screening at her home, invited some judges to watch this movie, and recommended the actor of this movie, saying that he acted very well and she liked it very much." Later, the actor was really nominated. After that year, the academy issued a new rule that all members of the academy could not screen privately or lobby, and must be done by lobbying companies, and could not exchange the star's own influence for resources. For example, if you choose me this time, and then I will choose you next time, if I play a play of yours, and you can help me do something, these things will not work, and this must be done through formal lobbying channels. ”

Wendi Deng still didn't understand, "I'm different from Julia Roberts, I'm not a member of the academy. ”

Zhang Ran explained, "Lobbying can only be done by a PR firm, and although you are not a member of the academy, you are my friend with Jingchu, and we still have cooperation." If you come out to canvass for votes, others will think that there is an exchange of interests in it, and it will become a scandal. I don't want to give the impression that the Angels of Justice won the Oscar by canvassing for votes in violation of regulations. ”

Wendi Deng is also half of the film industry, but he has not participated in the Oscar public relations, and he is not very clear about the doorway inside. ”

After getting Wendi Deng, Zhang Ran met with Anna Wintour again. After hearing Zhang Ran's request, Wintour readily agreed, and she made a better suggestion to hold a drinking party in the name of Vogue, attended by models, fashion designers, and Hollywood stars, and others couldn't find fault even if they wanted to.

But Wintour also made a request to Zhang Ran to be the artistic director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art charity dinner in New York next May. Wintour has told Zhang Ran many times about this, but due to various reasons, he has not been able to make the trip, and this time Zhang Ran finally agreed.

Just when Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu were working hard for the Angel of Justice, the news of the poor evaluation of the movie by the American media spread to China, triggering a carnival of the media led by Xinjing Daily.

The headline of Xinjing Bao was "Angel of Justice suffered a tragic Waterloo in North America, and the foreign media received a flood of bad comments"; the headline of the surging news was "The first round of comments of Angel of Justice was released, but most of the foreign media received bad reviews, and Zhang Ran missed this time!" and Nanfang Metropolis Daily commented on this as "a tragic failure in Zhang Ran's film career"

Zhu Dake had a scolding war with Zhang Ran at the beginning, but he was scolded by Zhang Ran and Zhang Ran's fans. He gritted his teeth with hatred for Zhang Ran, and he just wanted to find an opportunity to criticize Zhang Ran, but he never had the opportunity. He finally seized the opportunity, so he published an article in Wen Wei Po as soon as possible, accusing Zhang Ran of consuming the national disaster.

The article wrote: "Over the years, the internal and external breakthroughs of the Chinese film industry have caused the big directors in the film industry led by Zhang Ran to take the speculative route and take advantage of the national suffering to make money, and many Chinese national disasters have become their speculative capital, and they have vainly tried to use these national disasters to gain fame and fortune at home and abroad." However, whether it is the Tangshan earthquake or the Angels of Justice, there is a serious lack of blood of universal values. To make matters worse, the cinematic language of such films is not at all on the same baseline as Hollywood, yet these speculators have repeatedly exploited media hype to make money at the box office. This time, Zhang Ran completely exposed his shallowness, and the Angel of Justice was subjected to unprecedented unanimous and harsh criticism from American critics. For this film, which was defined by the producers as 'Zhang Ran's war epic film', American critics unanimously criticized it for its clumsy plot, outdated technique, and empty meaning."

Tsinghua Xiao Ying even translated the full text of the American media's bad comments on the Angel of Justice and posted it on Weibo. He smiled and made three predictions to the Angels of Justice: "Prediction 1: On December 12 this year, the Golden Globe Awards announced the nominations. According to Justice Day, which has been unanimously criticized by film critics in the mainstream media in the United States, it is definitely predicted that the film will not be eligible for this year's Golden Globe Awards;

The nominees for the 89th Oscars will be officially announced on February 6, and the awards ceremony will be held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles on February 26. In view of the fact that Angel of Justice has been unanimously badly criticized by American film critics and mainstream critics, the highest score is only 59, and as a theme film set in the Nanjing Massacre, it seriously violates historical facts, the film logic is confused, and the theme value orientation is wrong, Angel of Justice will not be nominated for Best Picture at the 89 Academy Awards, and there is no hope of winning this award.

It is predicted that the three gold medals may be nominated for individual awards such as this year's Oscars, but there is no possibility of winning any awards!"

Many Zhang Ran's black fans, as well as Jing Ri, forwarded the articles of Zhu Dake, Xiao Ying and others everywhere, and frantically scolded the angels of justice, eager to tear this movie to pieces, as if they could take a breath if they criticized this movie.

"It's very happy, Zhang Ran's new film Angel of Justice has received bad reviews after its release in New York, the freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is only 68, the T score is only 59 points, and the Oscars are completely out of play!"

"No matter what tricks are taken, the massacre is always a national shame that makes the Chinese sad, and I don't like those people who expose the scars of the nation over and over again to make money for themselves." If you want to make money, yes, please change the subject matter. ”

"The Nanjing Massacre is a national shame, and every Chinese will be angry when they think of it, but some shameless SBs always use it to make entertainment films, who is it used to entertain!! I can't help it. The investors and directors of the famous Nanjing Nanjing Thirteen Hairpins, Angels of Justice are all n's dog days!!"

"Angel of Justice is a movie that glorifies Americans, and today's Chinese only know that the United States aided China to resist Japan, but they do not know that from the September 18 incident in 1931 to the outbreak of the Pacific War in 1941 for 10 years, the United States has been acquiescing, instigating, and assisting Dongying in its invasion of China!"

Zhang Ran's fans naturally did not sit idly by and watch their boss being scolded, and they all refuted it at the first time, pointing out that the Angel of Justice was politically interpreted in the United States, and many film critics directly labeled the movie as a "political propaganda film", and also said that the movie portrayed the Japanese army as a beast, with obvious political bias.

However, even Zhang Ran fans mostly feel that it is difficult for Angel of Justice to make a difference in the Oscars, after all, Angel of Justice's freshness on Rotten Tomatoes is only 68, and the T score is only 59 points, and it is almost impossible to win an Oscar with this score. Only a very small number of fans still believe that there may be a miracle, so the Rotten Tomatoes Index and T score of Beautiful Life were not high at the beginning, but the movie still won the award.

On October 23, Angels of Justice hosted a special screening for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association at the Egyptian Theater in Los Angeles. The official release of Angel of Justice in the United States is in mid-December, when the list of Golden Globe nominees is out. To be nominated for the Golden Globes, the Golden Globe judges must be given an early glimpse of the film so they can vote for Angels of Justice, so Summit Entertainment invited the Golden Globe judges into the cinema and arranged a screening specifically for them.

The Golden Globes are organized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, and the judges are just over 90 people, and of the 81 people who participated in the screening, only a dozen or so did not show up for various reasons. Generally, only 4 or 50 judges are present at such a screening of a film, but the fact that so many judges can be present at the screening of Angels of Justice is enough to prove that they attach great importance to this film.

During the screening of the film, Zhang Ran had been secretly observing the judges' reactions. Half an hour after the movie began, some judges began to wipe their tears, and as the story progressed, many judges cried profusely, and in the second half of the story, as the story progressed, the depressing plot made the judges' breathing extremely heavy. By the time the film was over, the judges were silent in their chairs.

Zhang Ran and the three actors had a brief exchange with the Golden Globe Award judges, talking about their creative ideals and their understanding of the role. Zhang Ran especially emphasized that he made this movie not to be anti-Japanese, let alone to incite ethnic hatred, but to show a real history, because the Angel of Justice tells the story of a group of people who resist power, expose the truth, and uphold justice.

After the screening, Zhang Ran felt that the judges had a good response to the Angel of Justice, and the Golden Globe Awards have always been selected according to the selection rules of whoever is popular will hug his thighs, and it should not be a problem to be nominated for the Golden Globe Awards.

On the same day, Scorsese published an article in The Hollywood Reporter blasting some media for their malicious bad reviews of Angels of Justice. Scorsese believes that many people give bad reviews to Angels of Justice solely because of their political interpretation of the film, and these criticisms are not based on the film itself at all.

Scorsese believes that "although the Angel of Justice does not have many innovations in audiovisual language like films such as One Man Putting Up the Lights, in terms of artistry, it maintains Zhang Ran's consistent level." The viewing experience of the movie is excellent, with excellent cinematography, sound editing, camera movement, and storytelling. It doesn't need to be explained, it's all in the experience, and only a truly passionate filmmaker can create a film like this. ”

In the article, Scorsese points out that "Rotten Tomatoes and T have nothing to do with true film art criticism. They liken movies to horses on a racetrack, restaurants in zagat guides, home appliances in consumer reports. They are only related to the commercial operation of films, and have nothing to do with the creation of films. These companies and websites set a hostile tone towards directors, and even the name of the Rotten Tomatoes website is an insult to filmmakers. More and more people are doing just criticism, and they are drifting away from the history of cinema. ”

At the end of the article, Scorsese said that these worthless film reviews will soon be forgotten, but works like Angel of Justice will never be forgotten.

Scorsese has a very high status in the film industry, second only to Godard and Coppola among living directors, and his article immediately caused heated discussions in the media and film circles.
