Chapter 563: The Time to Present the Award

Ceremonies play a very important role in the history of human civilization.

In the West, from the theocratic era, ceremonies were used to communicate with God, so ceremonies have been sacred, solemn and formal important forms from ancient times to the present, and later with the alternation of theocracy to royal power, ceremonies have become a form of loyalty and praise to the king's merits, and still retain the sacred, solemn and serious characteristics.

However, after the Renaissance in the West, Westerners reintegrated humanities and human culture, and paid more attention to the trend of democracy and equality, which also affected the trend of ceremonies.

Even in modern times, the accession to the throne of England, which still retains a constitutional monarchy, has gradually lost some sacred and solemn forms, and added some expressions of pro-people, which is a manifestation of class elimination.

With the rise and popularity of the entertainment industry, the format of the ceremony has also changed with the Western humanities, and it has become no longer unsmiling, although it still maintains a serious atmosphere, but the award ceremony has allowed some light-hearted performance.

This has a lot to do with the fact that there are too many changes in the humanities of the whole West, so whether it is the Oscars or the Grammys, the host and award presenters are very relaxed, and there are often unexpected laughs, which add a lot of fun to the ceremony, and it seems less boring and out of reach.

This form of general ceremony is also affecting the world, so it is normal for a lot of gossip and ridicule to appear at the Oscar ceremony.

For example, Gwyneth Paltrow, who won the best actress in the most controversial Oscar "Shakespeare in Love" that year, directly said in her acceptance speech, "Thank you Harvey for killing all my opponents for me." Explosive statements.

Wang Yao's lying gun has become the focus of public opinion this time, although it will have some impact on him, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and Harvey is not talking nonsense, but he has a calculation.

Nicole Kidman competed for Best Actress this year with "Moulin Rouge", this film is also the most award-winning film this year, as the heroine, she will naturally attract attention, plus she just divorced last month, which caused a sensation in the entire United States, and in the next year, Nicole Kidman will be one of the centers of Hollywood topics.

If there is a topic, there will be a amount of attention, whether it is good or bad, the promotion benefits brought by the amount of attention are undoubted, take this opportunity to get out the lace news between her and Wang Yao, and as long as the newspaper reports Nicole Kidman in the future, Wang Yao will definitely be brought with it.

Although Wang Yao became a god with "Zodiac Turn", after all, it is an animated film, and only by shooting a real movie will his position be stabilized, and what is needed most in this period is attention.

Next year, there will be three 100 million-level movies produced by Wang Yao of Yaohua Company, which can just take advantage of the attention brought by this scandal to maximize the publicity, as long as one of these three movies is successful, then Wang Yao will have a real position among Hollywood's top directors and have box office appeal, then the company will develop steadily and have no worries.

This is the calculation of a good businessman.

It is always the director who can really carry the box office, even if the star is popular and has more fans, he is not as good as the director in this regard, because in fact, among the fans, there are not many who are really willing to spend money into the movie to support idols, even if they are actors with acting skills, but actors can ensure a part of the stable box office income, which is also a measure of worth.

But a well-known director is different, developed countries like the United States have a great demand for films, and it has passed the era of indiscriminate filling, and there are certain requirements for the quality of films.

A top director can support the sustainable development of a company, but actors are difficult.

Harvey has been in Hollywood for so many years, and the rules and means have long been engraved in his bones, and what he is best at is to praise the director and use various means to praise him.

Quentin Tarantino is a prime example of this, with Xavi personally lifting him to the altar.

But Quentin Tarantino is a great artist and doesn't have much utilitarianism, so Harvey can't use him to make too much money, and there's no way to kidnap him to make money together.

But Wang Yao is different, Harvey clearly understands what Wang Yao needs, although he also thinks that what Wang Yao wants to do is crazy, but as long as there is money to be made and can make Hollywood giants suffer, he is willing to do it.

So he risked being beaten to death by Nicole Kidman to make such a farce in Hollywood.

Wang Yao and Nicole Kidman have become the existence that every award presenter will ridicule because of Harvey, although Wang Yao has not been in Hollywood for a long time, he has a good personal relationship with these stars.

The awards were announced one by one, until the last few heavyweight awards, including supporting actor and actress, best picture, best director, and best original screenplay.

Of these works, only the last nomination for the original script remains.

Wang Yao also began to get nervous inexplicably, leaned forward slightly, and said to Harvey next to him with a smile, "If I lose the opportunity to give a speech on stage this year, then you will die, I will take a bad breath for all your enemies, and film the sins you have done in Hollywood for so many years in the form of a documentary for ridicule." ”

Harvey's fat face twitched, "Big brother, don't do it so desperately, what good will it do you to force me to death." ”

"Destroy people's reputation, never die. Wang Yao sneered.

"Nicole doesn't care too much, and you're too stingy as a big man. Harvey glanced at Nicole Kidman, who was smiling in front of him, and complained to Wang Yao.

"If I make a documentary about Harvey, then I can apply for a leading actress. Suddenly, Gwyneth Paltrow next to him laughed.

"Forty percent of the women in the room were allocated a spot. Cate Blanchett also sneered lightly.

"I feel like I'm going to be attacked by crazy fans. Harvey shuddered.

"Shhhhh Wang Yao made a silent gesture.

"It's been a great year for Hollywood. The guest of honor for the Original Award is James Cameron, "As a special effects, this year is my most exciting year, "The Lord of the Rings" amazes me, "Harry Potter" makes me happy, but the biggest surprise is my friend, Wang Yao. ”

After Cameron finished speaking, there was a commotion from the audience, because he had never heard of anything in common with Wang Yao, and with his eccentric personality, if it wasn't for the talent that made everyone surrender, in a place like Hollywood, no one really wanted to make friends with him.

Of course, he also disdained to make friends with some people.

"Although it is an animated film, Wang Yao brought new technology that I also admire, and at the same time made a film that I dare not try easily, "Zodiac Turn" puts aside all factors, but technically, it deserves to be the most cutting-edge technology in Hollywood, which I have to admit with Steven and Jeffrey. ”

The three people Cameron said represent the top figures in Hollywood's current special effects technology, and their affirmation directly established the status of Wang Yao's special effects technology.

"Fresh technology from the East, as well as fresh culture, have injected new blood into the already dormant Hollywood. Cameron smiled, "When I was in "Titanic" before, I declared myself the king of the world, but now I look at it, it's a little arrogant, because I have been ignoring the ancient country in the East, and I am most happy that Wang Yao appeared, and this world is complete again." ”

Cameron's speech sparked thunderous applause, and Hollywood has always been in a state of self-containedness and playing with themselves, because they are already the best, and it is difficult to jump out of this circle if they want to find a breakthrough.

Because the American imperialists and some Western cultures have been filmed by them, if there is no new thing coming in, they will fall into a bottleneck period for a period of time, so they will make such a big investment in special effects over the years, but everyone knows that such a movie is meaningless after all, and it is different from the movie they pursued at the beginning.

Because without collisions, there is no progress.

The appearance of Wang Yao really brought something new, Cameron's words were not to praise Wang Yao, but to remind Hollywood that it should really open its eyes and take a look at the world.

After the applause, Cameron began to read out the nominations for "Gosford Manor", "Angel Amelie", "Dance of Death Row Inmates", "Geniuses" and "Zodiac Turn".
