The globalization of Hollywood films, as the most important part of the Hollywood film awards season, the Oscars, its influence has gradually covered the world, and the annual Oscars have become more and more desirable for filmmakers all over the world.

Otherwise, our country would not have a special indicator every year called 'Chong Olympic Movie!'

The reason why director Ang Lee is famous in the Chinese world is mainly because he won two Oscars for Best Director.

Shen Lin was recognized and reported by the most mainstream media in China for the first time, and it was also because his "Dallas Buyers Club" won the Oscar for Best Picture.

Compare the big three in Europe and the Oscars.

The Oscar can increase the value of a film or the starring role, while Venice, Berlin or Cannes can only raise the price a little at most.

And many European directors and actors will take getting the top three in Europe as a stepping stone to Hollywood!

It's a pity that in the Chinese-language film industry, there is no such type of awards season and such an influential award ceremony like the Oscars.

In the 80s and 90s, the HK Film Awards barely managed to achieve the level of the Oscars of Chinese films, and after 97, the Academy Awards became more and more self-contained, and now they can only be called 'local awards!'

In fact, Shen Lin knows very well that he may come back empty-handed at this year's Oscars, let alone any Best Foreign Language Film, to be honest, he can get four nominations, and he knows that this is already the reason why Bill's public relations are very powerful.

"Son of Saul" is so much in line with the vision of the Oscar judges!

……

Spring is expected to be cold, and this is especially true in Los Angeles.

Before getting off the plane, Shen Lin clearly felt the biting cold wind.

“… It's so cold!"

Li Ying pitifully retracted her hand into her pocket and looked at Shen Lin.

"I'm wearing a down jacket! Forget it, here you go!"

Shen Lin reluctantly took off his coat and draped it on Yingbao.

Li Ying smiled flatteringly at Shen Lin, wrapped her down jacket that almost fell to the ground, and then asked, "Where are we going now?"

"Forget it, Bill has already arranged, and we'll stop at the Hilton Hotel on Hollywood Boulevard..."

As he spoke, a black business vehicle drove in front of Shen Lin.

"Let's go, hurry up and get in the car, there's a drinking party in the evening..."

"And a drinking party?"

Zhao Liying was a little unhappy, after more than ten hours of tiring travel before she got off the plane, she had to pile up smiling faces, not to mention her, Shen Lin was a little unbearable.

"No way, that's what awards season is. ”

Shen Lin patted Yingbao's shoulder comfortingly, and the latter fell into his arms.

Neither of them spoke, enjoying the moment of silence.

After a long time, Li Ying opened her mouth and asked, "... Shen Lin, do you think I might win the prize this time?"

Shen Lin opened his eyes and looked at Li Ying, who seemed to be muttering to himself.

“… I can't say well, but it's very likely, I took a look at a few actresses nominated this time, except for you, it's Kate Winslet who has a chance. ”

"Didn't you say that Oscar would definitely arrange a scene where old friends from ten years meet?"

Zhao Liying instantly sobered up, and she heard the meaning of Shen Lin's words.

Before, Shen Lin had always been very sure that Fei Wen and Xiao Li Zi would win the best supporting actress and best actor, why is it not as sure as before?

"Half a month ago, Bill called me, and he said that this time Feiwen's public relations manager was Weinstein, and I guessed that the probability of Feiwen winning the award was likely to be reduced!"

“… Why?"

Zhao Liying didn't quite understand what Shen Lin meant, according to what he said before, Harvey Weinstein is definitely a top public relations master, and he personally planned "Shakespeare's Love History" to kill "Saving Private Ryan", "The King's Speech" to kill "Social Network", that merit can be compared to Su Qin!

It's a pity that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!

"Hehe, now every awards season, newspapers start to write advertorials about Weinstein's rich history of the Olympics, as well as inventory of the popular movies that he killed..."

"In recent years, Weinstein's Oscar strategy has lost more and won less, and it is obvious that academics have begun to be wary of Weinstein, after all, Oscar cannot be surnamed Weinstein!"

briefly said that he was no longer optimistic about Harvey, and finally concluded: "Hollywood's traditional six studios originally didn't attach much importance to these awards, they cared more about whether the movie could make money, but in the past ten years, the Big Six have not come up with a well-received movie, but Weinstein began to call for wind and rain during the awards season. ”

“… So, the likelihood of me getting the actress has increased?"

After listening to Shen Lin's analysis, Li Ying suddenly came to her senses, changed her previous sluggish appearance, stared at Shen Lin with wide eyes, and looked at Shen Lin expectantly.

"Who knows? It's just that in comparison, you're more likely to win a prize than Fat Temperature. ”

Shen Lin didn't dare to pack the ticket.

Oscar can be PR, but it is absolutely impossible to expose the results in advance.

No one will know what's inside the envelope until the results are announced.

"What about Sister Gong Li, does she have a chance for Best Actress?"

"What do you think?"

Shen Lin didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically, Li Ying frowned, thought about it, and replied very seriously: "I think it's possible!"

Walt?

"Why do you think that?"

Shen Lin held back a smile and prepared to listen to his daughter-in-law's high opinion.

"Because Sister Gong Li is amazing, when I was acting with her, I was basically led by her nose... Anyway, I just think Sister Gong Li is so powerful, she deserves to win the award..."

The more Zhao Liying spoke, the more she blushed, and finally closed her mouth.

"You are a fan's mentality, it doesn't count, if the judges of the Oscars are the same as you, then Xiao Li Zi and Brad Pitt should have won the best actor a long time ago!"

Shen Lin laughed, and Li Ying was very dissatisfied: "Then do you say that Sister Gong Li is likely to win the award?"

"The probability is very low, first of all, it is already very difficult for a foreign language film to win a supporting actress, you still want to take the heroine? nominating you is already the most benevolent and righteous way; secondly, although Sister Gong Li's acting skills in "Carol" are good, they are not amazing or have any acting explosions or the like, plus several of the nominees this year are very good, especially Brie Larson's performance in "Room", which is very memorable;

Shen Lin thought about it for a long time, but he really couldn't think of any good metaphors.

"Unless Oscar is ready to go the socialist course..."

While the two were laughing, the car stopped in front of the Hilton Hotel, the largest hotel on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

"Shen, you're finally here!"

Bill stood at the door and saw Shen Lin get out of the car, and immediately surrounded him enthusiastically.

"Hi Bill!"
