Chapter 306: Oscar for Best Picture
It has to do with dreams.....
I remember when I was watching The Matrix, Morpheus said to Neo: You've been living in dreams before..... Could it be that this movie is also...?"
"What the hell is a dream, is it hypnosis?"
"Crime-related movies? Sorry, I can't really imagine how dreams can be used to commit crimes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"Is it possible to see other people's dreams, and then take the opportunity to peep into other people's privacy to commit crimes?"
The audience's speculations came out in all directions, and on the stage, Sun Zhiming pondered for a long time, and also said tentatively: "Director Han, a science fiction movie related to dreams? Is it similar to the Matrix, which links everyone's consciousness in a virtual world?"
"Sorry, I said I had a connection to the Matrix, but I didn't just move the hacker design. Han Qiu shook his head and denied Sun Zhiming's opinion.
Seeing this, Huang Qilin suddenly said, "Could it be that there is some kind of machine in the future that can project people's dreams?"
Han Qiu was stunned for a moment and said, "Old Huang, your idea is very good, but there is still a difference between it and my movie." ā
In Inception, criminals can invade other people's dreams, but it is still impossible to project dreams on a real screen as a movie.
Hearing this, Huang Qilin nodded thoughtfully and stopped talking.
Sun Zhiming is not giving up, if he can dig up a little more insider, then he can use this as a gimmick to attract more audiences.
When the time comes, won't the ratings be rising?
Sun Zhiming squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Director Han, can you tell us a little more news?"
"That's not going to work, it's a trade secret. Han Qiu smiled and said, "What if someone else plagiarizes my idea to make a movie?"
Sun Zhiming sneered and shrugged: "Then I won't force Director Han." ā
By this time, the recording of the program had also come to an end.
After Sun Zhiming read the list of sponsors, under the applause of the audience's door, this episode of the program officially ended.
.......
After leaving the CCTV building, Han Qiu stayed in the hotel for one night, and flew back to the magic capital the next day.
At present, Ye Chen and Lin Hua's crew had already started filming shortly after the Chinese New Year, and they have been filming for a long time.
On Ye Chen's side, the starring actors are still Zhou Xingchi's gang. Lin Hua replaced the royal actor Zhao Hui.
The actor of Eraser is an uncle-type, so an idol actor like Zhao Hui is not particularly suitable.
Then, Lin Hua picked a Xiangjiang actor that Han Qiu was very familiar with.
Liang Chaowei!
When it comes to uncles, especially uncles with many love scenes, there are few actors in China who can compare to Liang Chaowei.
At that time, after Lin Hua sent an invitation to Liang Chaowei, he was still a little nervous. After all, he is a powerful actor, and he may be a little picky.
But he didn't expect that after reading the script, Liang Chaowei didn't give Lin Hua too much time to worry, so he directly won the scene.
In Liang Chaowei's heart, first, Lin Hua is a person from Huaxian and a person from his old friend Han Qiu, so there is no need to say much about his reputation. Second, Lin Hua is a master director of domestic romance films, and several romance films he has shot not only have a good box office, but also have an excellent reputation.
The two points together are exactly what you need.
Under the "concubine's will", the two quickly signed a film contract, ready to "erase" this eraser all over China.
Ye Chen and Lin Hua moved so fast, Han Qiu naturally refused to fall behind.
was busy until the end of April, and Han Qiu scribbled and changed it, and finally got the script of "Inception" out.
In early May, Han Qiu contacted Warner to discuss the investment in Inception.
After Warner read the script of "Inception", without saying a word, without even a day of hesitation, he finalized the cooperation plan for the film.
has cooperated with Han Qiu so many times, and the relationship between the two has long been intimate, coupled with the excellent script of "Inception", and the fact that it has a lot of connections with the Matrix, they have no reason to refuse this cooperation.
Han Qiu told Warner a good news, and at the same time, Warner also told Han Qiu a good news.
That is, the list of nominees for this year's Oscars has been obtained by them in advance.
The Matrix and Truman were both selected, and each won quite a few nominations.
Han Qiu was not surprised that Warner could get this list in advance, and he was surprised that The Matrix was nominated for Best Picture, the most prestigious award.
In addition, The Matrix was also nominated for a number of technical awards, such as Best Editing, Best Visual Effects, and so on. The only regret is that there is no Best Director and Best Male and Female Leads, Male and Female Supporting Actors.
In this regard, Han Qiu also had nothing to say, he had already expected the scene of the Matrix as a foil.
In contrast, Truman has not won a lot of technical awards, such as Best Actor, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, etc.
The most important thing is the best picture.
The reason why Han Qiu is so pessimistic is because of the existence of Truman.
The Matrix and Truman go for Best Picture?
90% of them will be defeated!
Another 10%, that is, won by other films.
The probability of The Matrix winning Best Picture is basically 0.
Sci-fi films, to compete for this kind of award, inherently suffer.
After that, Han Qiu promised that Warner would go to Los Angeles to accompany the Oscars, and by the way, he would get the relevant matters of "Inception" done.
.......
At the beginning of May, the list of Oscar nominees was officially announced, and people around the world who were following the Oscars learned about it.
Naturally, this also includes many media in China.
Unlike in the past, Huaxia media has made a big splash this time.
In the past, when Han Qiu's Dark Knight was selected for the Oscars, because this movie still had the label of Hollywood, the domestic media did not pay much attention to it. But this time it's different, The Matrix is a Chinese movie.
It was also selected for Best Picture.
Not only that, but Truman's world has also been selected for many awards. Although it is a Yankee remake, Truman was born in China after all.
Together, these two have caused more gimmicks in China than any previous Oscars.
On Weibo, major movie forums, and post bars, countless netizens are hotly discussed.
Will The Matrix win Best Picture?
"The Matrix has been selected for Best Picture? Today is May 1st, it doesn't seem like April 1st, right?"
"The upstairs looks down on science fiction films? The Matrix is such a classic, why Mao can't be selected for Best Picture?"
"Ahem, it's not much of a problem to be selected, but it's difficult to win the award, I'm afraid I'm afraid that Han Banxian will accompany him this time. ā
"Yes, the Yankee remake of Truman was also selected for Best Picture. According to Oscar's urine, most of them will be given to Truman. ā
"Truman satirized the media society, and the literary and artistic style is really incomparable, and the Matrix is indeed incomparable. ā
", look at what you say, who do you want to support, it seems that both movies have something to do with Han Banxian. ā
"Han Banxian has a relationship with Truman, but he didn't get any nominations because of Truman. If Truman wins the award and dies, it means that Huaxia's current movies are very good. ā
"Han Banxian is really powerful, one Infernal Affairs, one Truman, where did the Yankees go to remake, they all won awards. ... Well, in my mind, I have already decided on Truman's best picture. ā
"Tell me, if Han Banxian makes these two movies in the United States, will he win awards?"
Han Qiu also thought about this question. But after thinking about it, he could only come up with a "no" answer.
The Oscars not only favor literary films and dramas, but also favor Americans, and at the very least, half of Americans with green cards.
Han Qiu, a purebred Chinese, will be able to win some technical awards, and it is not ordinary difficult to win those key awards.
In addition, Hollywood, as the center of world cinema, is not for nothing. He is not only strong in commercial films, but also those drama films that satirize and allude to reality.
This has nothing to do with the ethos of the United States, where speech is much freer than China's, and sarcastic remarks are often made.
Even if you satirize politics, your director dares to "blow up" even the White House. In Huaxia, how dare that director "bomb" the State Council?
As a result, there are often movies in the United States that allude to politics or human nature, and these are Oscar's favorites.
So this time, the pressure on Truman is also very high, and the probability of winning the prize is not 100%.
But no matter who wins the award, it has little to do with The Matrix.
.....
This year's Oscars are held in late May. After Labor Day, Han Qiu left for the United States in advance.
His departure drew the attention of countless people.
Countless Chinese netizens who pay attention to the Oscars are looking forward to Truman winning the award.
Although it is a remake, this is spread from China after all.
If you say it in the future, Huaxia will also have a long face!
(The Oscars are not so late, I changed it slightly, don't mind.) ļ¼
