Chapter 1150: The Sensation of the Nomination

On the big screen, black actress actor Gabrielle Sdibe sat in a chair, waving her fleshy hands and smiling as she spoke about her opinion on Best Supporting Actress. Her words were brief, and soon the nominees for the Best Supporting Actress award were announced: "Viola Davis for "The Fence", Naomi Harris for "Moonlight", Michelle Williams for "Manchester by the Sea", Nicole Kidman for "The Lion", Amy Adams for "Angel of Justice!"

Amy Adams swept all the way in the outpost, winning nearly 40 of the more than 50 awards, and also won the Broadcast Film Critics Association Award, which is known as one of the four major weather vanes of the Oscars. It's no surprise that she was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress award, but it would be a surprise if she wasn't.

Even so, the Angel of Justice promoters and Pinnacle Entertainment's executives were still excited, applauding and applauding Amy Adams. Zhang Ran was also smiling and applauding, Amy Adams played Weitling alive, and she deserved this nomination.

The picture on the big screen flashed, and Toei actor Ken Watanabe appeared in front of him. Like Gabriel Stabe, after a few simple words, he began to announce the list of nominees for the Best Supporting Actor award: "Moonlight Boy" Mahershala Ali, "Manchester by the Sea" Lucas Hedges, "Lion" Dev Patel, "Nocturnal Animals" Michael Shannon, "Angel of Justice" Ulrich Tukel!"

Hearing that Ulrich Tucker was nominated for Best Supporting Actor, Zhang Ran and everyone present were slightly stunned, a little unable to believe their ears, no one expected that Turck would be able to win this nomination.

It's not that Türk didn't act well, in fact, Türk's performance in "Angels of Justice" was extremely good, and his portrayal of Rabe was vivid, no worse than any of the nominated performances, or even better. But Turk speaks German in "Angel of Justice", and it is very difficult for foreign actors to get nominations, and because Türk plays Rabe, the Jews will certainly not vote for him, and in this case, it is very difficult to get an Oscar nomination.

Turck's nomination was a complete surprise, Zhang Ran stood up excitedly, clapping his hands vigorously, and Zhang Jingchu, Prem Gill, and others also stood up, pouring out their excitement with crazy applause.

After the applause stopped, Zhang Ran looked at Prem Gill and said with a smug face: "Even the Best Supporting Actor has been nominated, I feel that there are more than 12 nominations for "Angel of Justice" this time!"

Prem-Gill smiled and nodded, "I have this hunch too!"

Things are as Zhang Ran expected, "Angel of Justice" is like a hanging, and it does not stop appearing in the list of nominations, as long as the awards that can be nominated, "Angel of Justice" will not be mentioned.

By the end of the count, "Angel of Justice" had a total of 14 nominations!

This result equals the record for the most nominations held by "Titanic" and "Comet Beauty"!

This achievement made the entire conference room boil. Zhang Ran gave Prem-Gill a bear hug, patted him the back, and said excitedly: "Prem! Well done! You guys did so beautiful!"

Prem Gill modestly said: "There is actually a limit to what we can do! The main thing is that the quality of "Angel of Justice" is excellent, and if the quality of the film is not excellent, no matter how much effort we put into it, it will not work." ”

Zhang Ran let go of Prem Gill, hugged the others in celebration again, and returned to his seat. He looked at the people present, restrained his smile, and said solemnly: "The 14 nominations for Angel of Justice are a great victory, which shows that our publicity and public relations work has been fruitful in the past few months. However, being nominated is only the first step, and a large number of nominations does not necessarily mean that you will be able to win the award. Our opponents are very strong, "La La Land" also received 14 nominations, "Moonlight Boy" received 8 nominations, and the right-wing and the Dongying forces in the United States will definitely not rest on their laurels and will definitely try to prevent us from winning the award. So, we definitely can't take it lightly!"

Everyone nodded slightly, and there were many nominations in the history of the Oscars, but there were many examples of them not receiving anything in the end, such as Spielberg's film "The Color Purple" received 11 nominations, but in the end it received nothing!

Zhang Jingchu looked at the list of nominees on the big screen and muttered: "La La Land has received 14 nominations, which shows that all parts of the academy are very supportive of La La Land. We've always thought that "Moonlight" is our biggest competitor for Best Picture, are we underestimating "La La Land"?"

Zhang Ran and the others all nodded slightly, feeling that they had really underestimated "La La Land". They have all seen "La La Land" and think the film is of good quality, but it is not good to say how good. As an important genre, there are too many classic masterpieces of song and dance films, and "La La Land" can only be regarded as a medium level in the genre of song and dance films. A musical film of this level, coupled with the fact that it offends minorities, feminists, and homosexuals, is unlikely to do much at the Oscars.

But the 14 nominations for "La La Land" told Zhang Ran that "La La Land" was a very big threat. Because the list of Oscar nominees is voted on by various departments of the academy, for example, the actor award is voted for by the actors of the academy. The 14 nominations for La La Land mean that there are a lot of people in all parts of the academy who support the film. If these people vote for "La La Land" when it comes to the best picture, then "La La Land" is a very big threat.

Zhang Ran took a deep breath and said seriously: "We underestimate Hollywood's enthusiasm for song and dance films. If you think about it, in the history of the Oscars, there are many examples of musical and dance films beating other excellent films. At the beginning, it beat "The Godfather" and won nine Oscars, including Best Director, Best Editing, and Best Cinematography, it was none other than the authentic song and dance film "Cabaret", and in 2002, it was Polanski's "The Pianist" that won the Best Picture award for the musical film "Chicago". But to be honest, "La La Land" is too far from "Cabaret" and "Chicago". Being able to get 14 nominations can only say that Hollywood has not had a decent song and dance film for too long, and it has been hungry and thirsty for too long!"

Prem Gill also feels that he is underestimating "La La Land", but he still firmly believes that "Moonlight Boy" is the number one opponent: ""La La Land" is more threatening than we estimated, but "La La Land" offended several groups, including minorities, which has a very big impact on them, plus *** This variable, I still think "Moonlight Boy" is our number one competitor." ”

Zhang Ran asked, "Do we want to make a change to our PR and publicity strategy?"

Prem Gill shook his head slowly: "Let's go according to the original plan, let's not mess with ourselves." Our films are strong, our publicity and PR are better than theirs, and as long as there are no big mistakes, we will definitely win the best picture!"

Zhang Ran nodded, his gaze slowly swept over everyone's faces, and said in a deep voice: "Girls and gentlemen, the real decisive battle has begun! In the next month or so, I hope everyone will go all out, show the greatest energy, clear all obstacles, and win the best picture!"

At the same time, because the list of Oscar nominees was released, the entire network was boiling. Hollywood is talking, fans are talking, and the media is talking.

No way, it's amazing!

In the 89-year history of the Oscars, only two films, "Titanic" and "Comet Beauty", have received 14 nominations, but this time not only "Angel of Justice" received 14 nominations, but "La La Land" also received 14 nominations. The two films received 14 nominations at the same time, which is definitely a record that has never been seen before or since!

"Angel of Justice" and "La La Land" are so brutal that countless people can't believe it's real!

After the news of the 14 nominations of "Angel of Justice" came out, all major domestic portals reported it as soon as possible, and QQ, Weibo and WeChat also pushed the news at the first time.

"I'm scared, "Angel of Justice" actually won 14 nominations! In October, "Angel of Justice" was hacked by Dongying people! The well-known elites in China, as well as Jingri, also followed the black, and now the Oscar nominations are out! I just want to say that good movies are out there, not everyone who wants to be black can get rid of it!"

"Yes, at the time, I thought that "Angel of Justice" was the same as Ang Lee's "Halftime War", and the reputation completely collapsed. I didn't expect the reputation to slowly turn around, and I didn't expect to be able to get 14 nominations!

"I don't understand why the General Administration sent "Tang Xuanzang" to compete for the foreign language film award, fortunately Zhang Ran is here, otherwise it will be a shame and a big loss! Zhang Ran is not only the liner of Chinese films, but also the face of China!"

"Ahhh

"Prediction: Best Picture "Angel of Justice", Best Director: Damien Chazelle, Actor: Cassie Affleck, Female Lead: Zhang Jingchu, Male Supporting Role: Mahershala Ali, Supporting Actress: Amy Adams......"

"Zhang Jingchu has been nominated for an Oscar for the second time! I see that foreign media are full of praise for her performance in "Angel of Justice", thinking that she has a chance to win the Oscar for Best Actress. If Zhang Jingchu really wins the Oscar, will Gong Li and Maggie Cheung be able to compete for the first Chinese actress on an equal footing?"

"I think if Zhang Jingchu really wins the Oscar, it will not be a matter of being on an equal footing with Gong Li and Maggie Cheung, but directly becoming a god and directly sitting on the throne of the first Chinese actress. ”

"Gong Li and Maggie Cheung are known as Gonghuang Manshen, if Zhang Jing is a god for the first time, then what will it be called at that time? First Emperor, or First Immortal? I think the First Emperor is more domineering! At that time, the ranking of Chinese actresses is: First Emperor, Gong Huang, Man God, and Sidan Shuangbing!"

According to Hollywood surveys, an Oscar nomination can be a good boost to the box office, and in fact, Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" officially relied on the Oscar boost to achieve a staggering $120 million at the box office.

"Angel of Justice" has expanded to 1,163 theaters after the Golden Globe Awards, and now the Oscar nominations are out, 14 nominations have made "Angel of Justice" infinitely beautiful, and the scale of the release has skyrocketed to 2027.

At the same time, many viewers in North America who were originally afraid to be interested in "Angel of Justice" also became interested in the movie because of the 14 nominations of "Angel of Justice". They walked into the movies to see what was going on.

After the Oscar nominations were announced, the box office of "Angel of Justice" ushered in a small blowout!
