Zhang Yimou took a deep breath, walked briskly, and walked onto the stage to the applause of the audience.

Quentin and Zhang Yimou are old acquaintances, and Zhang Yimou's "Hero" was refrigerated after being bought by Harvey and thrown away in the warehouse for distribution. Quentin was so fond of "Heroes" that he persuaded Harvey to release it, and allowed Miramax to promote him as a producer when promoting "Heroes". Driven by Quentin, "Hero" was finally released in North America after being refrigerated for nearly two years. After the release of the film, it created a miracle, winning the North American box office for two consecutive weeks, and finally achieved a box office of $54 million.

"Congratulations!" Quentin hugged Zhang Yimou and handed over the golden trophy.

"Thank you, Quentin!" Zhang Yimou took the trophy handed over by Quentin and held it tightly in his hand, feeling heavy.

Almodóvar is also a frequent visitor to the three major film festivals, and he is also an old acquaintance with Zhang Yimou, so he quickly sent a friendly hug, and then stepped aside with Quentin and gave up the stage.

Zhang Yimou stood in front of the podium, looked at the audience, and said in extremely nonfluent English: "Thank you to the academy for giving me this award." It's not an honor for me alone, it's an honor for our team. There are so many people to thank that I can't say all of them. Here I would like to give special thanks to Zhang Ran, when he gave me the script, I told him that if this scene is filmed, if everyone says it badly, it must be my responsibility as a director. Now that he has won this award, he has an explanation. In addition to that, I would like to thank Mr. Rob Freman of Summit Entertainment for putting a lot of effort into the promotion of the film. I won't say more, thank you!"

Zhang Yimou didn't know English, once when he was on a plane without a translator, he wanted to drink water, so he asked Zhang Weiping how to tell the flight attendant, Zhang Weiping also didn't know English, remembered that he had drunk tomato juice, so he said to Zhang Yimou: "He, fuck, die (tomatojuice tomatojuice)" Zhang Yimou also followed, as a result, after a few hours of flight, he drank a stomach of tomato juice.

The Oscars are the awards ceremony for American films, unlike the Big Three, where you can speak your native language after going on stage, and the film festival will have someone to translate. Oscar didn't have a translator, so he wrote a speech and asked his daughter to translate it into English, and memorized it.

Because it was memorized, Zhang Yimou's English accent was particularly strong, which caused the audience to burst into laughter from time to time.

In fact, it is often the case when the Oscars for Best Foreign Language Film are awarded, many directors are not very good at English, and last year's Best Foreign Language Film was the Toei movie "The Undertaker", Takida Yojiro's accent is heavier than Zhang Yimou.

The award for Best Foreign Language Film is followed by the Best Editing Award, which may seem unimportant, but it is actually very important. The attribution of editing and script is the two most important weather vanes of the best picture, of which the script is more important.

I only heard the guests on the stage announce loudly: "The best editing is Bob Morasky and Chris Innes of "Bomb Disposal Unit"!"

Hearing that "Bomb Disposal Unit" won the best editing, Zhang Ran waved his fist, laughed and hugged Mary Hill, and then hugged Neil, "Bomb Disposal Unit" has won the best original script before, and now it is the best editing, the two most important weather vanes have been won, and it can be said that the best picture is basically in hand.

Next are the two awards that fans pay the most attention to, Best Actor and Actress, and the entire awards ceremony also ushered in a high tide.

"The winner of the Best Actor award was Jeff Bridges for the movie Crazy Heart!"

"The award for Best Actress went to Sandra Bullock for the movie 'Weakness'!"

As the Best Actor and Actress were awarded, the Dolby Theater burst into applause and cheers.

Sandra Bullock, Best Actress, just won the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress (All About Steve) last night, becoming the first Hollywood ever star to win both the Oscar and the Golden Raspberry Award.

When Sandra Bullock took the stage to accept the award, she was full of excitement: "Thank you to my parents for helping to take care of my children when I am busy with work, and thank you to the director of the film and the judges of the Academy...... I'm going to have the Academy Awards and the 'Golden Raspberry' trophies side by side at home, for good and bad. ”

After the applause, Barbra Streisand, the guest of honor for Best Director, walked onto the stage with an envelope.

The live camera swept to the guest seat, and the five nominated directors, Zhang Yimou, Jason Reitman, Quentin Tarantino, James Cameron, and Kathryn Bigelow, were all sitting in the seat, smiling and applauding.

"All five nominees tonight are talented, and Best Director may be the first time a female director has won!" Barbra Streisand smiled as she looked at Kathryn Bigelow in the stands.

The applause at the scene was extremely warm, except for the members of the crew of "Bomb Disposal Unit", the female audience at the scene were cheering loudly.

"It's also possible that for the first time, it's a foreign-language film. Barbra Streisand introduced Zhang Yimou again.

The members of the crew of "Love" are applauding hard, and Zhang Yimou is also applauding hard, but he knows that he must be out of action. Summit Entertainment's Rob Freman told him that 28 directors, including him, have been nominated for an Oscar for best director for a foreign-language film, but no director has ever had the last laugh.

In addition to applauding, Zhang Yimou turned his head to look at Zhang Ran, the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film is his highest glory, and his Oscar road ends here, even if he rushes to the Olympics in the future, it is impossible to be stronger than this time. It is up to Zhang Ran to really rewrite the history of the Oscars and win the Oscar for Best Director, or even Best Picture, as a Chinese director.

Zhang Ran is the most talented director I've ever met, and I'm sure that day will come soon!

At the same time, after Barbra Streisand finished her introduction, the big screen in the background of the stage showed the evaluation of the director by the working actors of the crew, as well as the scene where the director worked in the crew.

Zhang Yimou is the most relaxed of the five nominated directors, Jason Reitman and Quentin Tarantino know that they don't have much chance, and they are more relaxed, smiling and waiting to see the husband and wife battle between Cameron and Bigelow.

Cameron looks calm and smiling, but his clenched fists betray his heart, "Avatar" is his twelve-year hard work, he definitely doesn't want to lose, Catherine Bigelow naturally doesn't want to lose, winning the Oscar can not only rewrite the history of the Oscars, but more importantly, her future film road is much easier, at this time she can't laugh, and even her breathing has become short.

After the introduction of the five nominees, the whole theater seemed to be pressed the mute button, and the scene suddenly fell silent, and even the air was filled with tension.

"The winner of Best Director was ......" Barbra Streisand smiled as she opened the envelope. At this time, the close-up of the five directors was also switched to the TV screen, and the atmosphere of the scene was tense to the extreme. Just hear Barbra Streisand announce loudly, "A new era has come!"

Ahhh

The whole scene was boiling over, and the audience collectively gave Kathryn Bigelow a round of applause. The female audience at the scene was like they had won the Oscar, applauding desperately and shouting loudly, completely ignoring the image of a lady.

It's no wonder that the female audience at the scene was excited, in the 82-year history of the Oscars, only three women have been nominated for the Best Director Award. Now Kathryn Bigelow has made Oscar history by becoming the first female director to win Best Director, breaking the domination of male discourse.

Cameron sat directly behind Catherine Bigelow, he felt a little lost, but after all, he was an old man, and it was his ex-wife who won the award, and he hugged and congratulated him very gracefully, but after hugging, he showed his "tyrant nature" and pretended to choke her neck.

Kathryn Bigelow was so excited that she danced a little when she took the stage: "Thank you, this is a very important moment in my life. Thanks to the Academy. If there was no screenwriter, there would be no film, thank you for risking your life to write this script. Thanks to all the actors, I think the secret to making a good movie is to work together. Thank you to the entire crew for their efforts, to the producer who is also my partner, and to Pete for his hospitality at the filming location. Finally, thanks to Rob Freman and Ran Zhang of Summit Entertainment for distributing our film. Thank you!"

In 08, it was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, but after the premiere, no one was optimistic about the film, and the evaluation given by the media was also very average, although the film won a few small awards, but because the film was too realistic, it was not commercially favored, and the European rights were sold, but no company in North America was willing to release it. It wasn't until they took the film to Toronto and were spotted by Rob Freman of Summit Entertainment that the film was released. After watching the movie, Zhang Ran thought that "Bomb Disposal Unit" had the strength to win the Oscar for Best Picture, and under his promotion, Summit Entertainment decided to go all out for public relations.

Now only the final award of Best Picture remains. Anyone who has studied the Oscars knows that "Bomb Disposal Unit", which won Best Original Screenplay and Best Editing, has already won this award.

However, there are still many "Avatar" supporters who refuse to give up, expecting Cameron to create a miracle, after all, "Avatar" is the most successful film in history, and it has played a role in promoting Hollywood, and even the entire film industry, such a film should be praised;

Unfortunately, the judges of the academy did not give "Avatar" a chance, only to see Tom Hanks open the envelope and read aloud: "The winner of the best picture is "Bomb Disposal Unit"!"

The crew members of "Bomb Disposal Unit" all stood up, celebrated wildly, cheered loudly, and the whole theater also fell into a frenzy, and the atmosphere reached its peak, cheers and applause resounded in the sky.

Producers Mark Ball and Kathryn Bigelow took to the stage surrounded by stars Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackay and Brian Graggerty, and the three lead actors stood in the back singing and dancing, and the whole theater was infected by them and turned into a sea of joy.

Mark Bauer stood in front of the microphone and said excitedly: "This film has surpassed our dreams, at the beginning of production, no distributor wanted to take over our film, but we are standing here today, and this feeling is very unreal. Thank you to the Academy for giving us such an honor, thank you to Rob Freman and Zhang Ran of Summit Entertainment for releasing our film! Thank you to all the actors, thank you to my mother!"

Kathryn Bigelow added: "I would also like to thank Rob Freman and Zhang Ran again, they took a lot of risk for this film and we owe them so much!"

When Mark Ball and Kathryn Bigelow held the statuette aloft, the curtain fell on the eighty-second Oscars, all the awards were decided, "Bomb Disposal Unit" became the ultimate winner, and Summit Entertainment became the biggest winner of the night.

Summit Entertainment has used seven Oscars to tell the world that a new movie production company is on the rise!
