335. One percent miracle

PS: A million words, in fact, this sentence should have been said yesterday, I wanted to write a thank you, zuihou think about it or forget it, a million words is really not easy for a hand-wrecked writer like me, and it is also xiexie has always insisted on subscribing, voting, rewarding friends, it is your daily continuous support that allows me to cross the hurdle of this million words again, xiexie all the book friends who support the godfather of the movie, xiexie you.

In a live broadcast hall of Huaxia TV Movie Channel, the host was chatting with the two guests about the future development of Huaxia Film at this time, but before the host could speak, the content of the signal screen reaction on the big screen behind him made him freeze for a moment.

"Best Foreign Chinese Film Award, so soon?" The host asked rhetorically in a slightly excited tone.

"It's true, it's interesting, the awarder arranged it was Ang Lee." Chen Kaige's attention at this time also shifted to the Oscars that were being broadcast live.

"But it's also to take care of our Chinese compatriots? haha! By the way, I haven't congratulated Director Chen yet, this year's masterpiece "Wu Ji" entered the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, although Zuihou regrets not winning the award, but being shortlisted is a certainty, I believe that with Director Chen's strength, he will definitely win the trophy in the future. The host snorted haha, and suddenly the conversation changed and complimented Chen Kaige.

"Where, where." Chen Kaige also had a smile on his face, if there are only two things that Chen Kaige is pleased with in the scolding of "Wuji", that is, the overseas box office and the Golden Globe Award shortlisted.

Although this movie has encountered unprecedented criticism in China, it is still quite popular abroad, although the overseas box office is still being counted, but it will definitely not lose money.

And the second point is that "Boundless" was shortlisted for the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film.

Although he didn't win the award in the end, he watched his old rival Ang Lee win the best director at the same Golden Globe Awards, although his heart was bitter at that time. But it's comforting to think about it, at least after "Wu Ji" was shortlisted for the Golden Globe Awards, the storm of ridicule in China has also weakened a little.

This is also a prerequisite for Weishenme Chen Kaige to have time to go out of the house today and come to the live broadcast hall of Huaxia TV Station as a guest.

It is really that the pressure in Director Chen's heart has been reduced a lot at this time, if it is put on the time when "Wuji" is released in January, it is estimated that Director Chen is still annoyed by various public opinions in the outside world, and he can't get out at all.

"You say. The Oscars suddenly asked Ang Lee to present the award, is it the result that director Ye Sumang will have some hope in the end. Watching the live broadcast of Ang Lee chatting with the female partner next to him casually, the host is making some predictions that can make the audience sound excited.

"Probably not." Before Chen Kaige could answer, Ning Hao denied it.

“weishenme?” The host was curious.

"This is playing the family card again, and it is estimated that Director Li was arranged to present this award, also because he has been selected for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film many times, and so far, the only Chinese film that has won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film is directed by Director Ang Lee." Ning Hao organized his language and expressed his opinion.

In fact, Ning Hao still didn't say a word in his heart. The Oscars are not like some awards ceremonies in China, and what kind of family card do you have to play, and it is estimated that the arrangement of this guest has no special meaning.

"Eh, listening to Director Ning Hao's analysis seems to make some sense, but no matter what, I still hope that Director Ye can come back with a precious trophy for our Huaxia mainland in the upcoming award of the best foreign language film, now please switch the signal to the Oscar ceremony, let us look forward to the next moment!"

Two flowers bloom. One branch for each.

Ye Sumang, who was sitting in the corner of the award ceremony venue at this time, also straightened his waist and paid serious attention to the ceremony for the first time. On stage at this time, Ang Lee was chatting with his female partner about the development of foreign language films, but this was obviously not what Ye Sumang's table wanted to hear.

"When will the results be announced?" Yuan Hong had a formulaic smile on his face, his eyes stared at the front desk without blinking, but he kept muttering in his mouth, if he wasn't afraid that the camera would suddenly shine over. It is estimated that Yuan Hong has already had a sad look on his face.

And Zhou Wei and Zhang Xueyou are also very anxious, and they are more nervous.

On the contrary, Ye Sumang, who is the protagonist, relaxed after being nervous for a moment at first, because he himself actually didn't have much hope for this award.

Look at the Chinese films that can be shortlisted in previous years. Basically, as long as it is a small pattern, it will eventually collapse, and the only one who has won this award so far is the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Ang Lee, who is talking and laughing on stage.

It is a movie full of Chinese martial arts characteristics, and perhaps it is precisely for this reason that the Oscars are particularly fond of it, but in comparison, Ye Sumang's "What If? Love's features are vague, so it's easy for the judges to overlook some of the highlights.

Moreover, today's location arrangement also made Ye Sumang a little disheartened, such a remote corner does not look like a location arranged for the winners.

Under the combination of the two, Ye Sumang has no hope for this award.

But no matter what, being shortlisted is an experience, and Ye Sumang believes that he will eventually win this award in the future.

Thinking of this, Ye Sumang looked up at the podium not far away, at this time the two guests had finished speaking, and the big screen of the stage also began to show several films shortlisted for this year.

"Brother Xueyou, why are you crying?" Yuan Hong suddenly found that Zhang Xueyou's eyes were red beside him, and he couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"Nothing." Zhang Xueyou touched her moist eyes and responded with a smile, but did not say the reason.

Yuan Hong wanted to ask again, but was stopped by Zhou Wei on the side.

"Sister Zhou Jing......" Yuan Hong's eyes were full of worry, Zhang Xueyou took a lot of care of him when he was in the crew, and when he suddenly cried at this time, he was naturally very afraid of what happened.

But Zhou Wei shook his head lightly at him, pointed at Zhang Xueyou, and said softly: "Don't worry, Brother Xueyou is just moving." ”

Yuan Hong turned his head to look at Zhang Xueyou, and suddenly he suddenly understood the meaning of what Zhou Wei said.

Zhang Xueyou did have a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes did not leave the big screen at all from beginning to end. Because on there, there's a lot going on about "What If?" Love", and in it, it has its own role.

He never thought that one day, the movie he starred in would be on the Oscars, and the once ridiculed 'Indian actor' finally appeared at the Oscars. And when reality came, he only felt that he couldn't control his inner excitement, and his eyes moistened unconsciously.

Zhou Wei is the same at this time, a year ago, she was a starlet who could only watch those beautiful actresses attend the Oscars in front of the TV, but a year later, she finally sat in this position and became one of the participants until this moment. Her position as a top actress in Asia has finally been finalized, and now there are only Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li in mainland China who can enjoy this title, and now there is one more name for Zhou Wei.

It can be said that this year, with this movie, they have gained too much.

And what brought them all this was the one-year-old boy next to them.

"I hope Su Mang can get this award......" Zhou Wei clasped his hands to his chest. Silently praying.

At this time, on stage, the shortlist has been announced. The actress held Zuihou's list of winners in her hand and opened the envelope with a smile under the gaze of the lower crowd.

"Oh my God." The actress suddenly exclaimed.

Ang Lee was very curious, and was about to turn his head to look, but found that the actress had already handed the list in his hand to him.

“!!!” With a sweep, a touch of shock instantly appeared on Ang Lee's face. Immediately, the corners of his mouth couldn't suppress a smile of excitement, and the director, who had been acting calmly on the stage, couldn't control his expression at this moment.

"The final award-winning film is ......" Ang Lee took the list, accompanied by the passionate drumbeat, and announced loudly: "Ye Sumang!" What if? Love!! ”

If? Love?

Ye Sumang seemed to hear the name of his movie in a trance, and smiled helplessly. Has the desire of the heart reached the point of auditory hallucinations?

But before his self-deprecating mood ended, the whole person felt like a cloud flying up, and when he looked at it in surprise, he saw Yuan Hong hugging himself in the air with excitement on his face, shouting something excitedly.

"What... Circumstance? By the way, it seems that I just heard "What If? Love. Thinking of this, Ye Sumang's confused eyes turned around, and he saw that many guests were looking at him curiously, and kept clapping again.

"Won the prize!" In an instant, Ye Sumang felt that a burst of electricity was stirred from head to toe, and the whole person couldn't help but tremble.

"Su Mang, you've won the prize! Won the prize! Zhang Xueyou's eyes widened and he roared, completely lacking the steady image just now.

Zhou Wei stood silently and patted her already red palms vigorously, tears flowed uncontrollably, but there was a bright smile on her face.

And Yuan Hong hugged Ye Sumang hard, his handsome face was extremely hideous, but the excitement made people understand his current mood at a glance.

Until this moment, Ye Sumang really understood that he had won the award!

At the same time, many places on the other side of the ocean also resounded with earth-shattering cheers, and at the moment when Ye Sumang won the award, Huaxia TV's live broadcast ratings chart also rose vertically in a straight line at an incredible speed!

In the canteen of the Tianxia Film and Television Company, hundreds of employees who were watching the live broadcast were cheering, and the haode streamers that had been prepared for a long time were also flying all over the sky.

In the CCTV building, several big men in the live broadcast hall of the movie channel cheered again with excited and trembling voices, and on the big screen behind them, it was the moment when Ye Sumang was picked up by Yuan Hong......

In a courtyard in Kyoto, Old Man Ye couldn't stop daxiao, and at the same time grabbed the phone and broadcast a string of numbers, and soon the old man's indescribable pride sounded in the small courtyard...

In a high-end community in Kyoto, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli hugged each other tightly, smiling happily, and the faces of the two of them were full of uncontrollable pride, because the boy who won the award at this time was her son-in-law and another boyfriend she decided to be with for life...

Not only that, but at this moment, countless cities across the country and countless people who are paying attention to this party are also cheering.

This day has also become a moment in the history of Chinese films that is worth remembering by everyone, and Ye Sumang's name will surely be recorded in the history of Chinese films.

Ye Sumang took a few deep breaths. walked to the front desk with a brisk pace, and the thought of gains and losses before this had long been thrown out of the clouds, and now there was only one worthy of his attention in front of Ye Sumang, that is, the little golden man in Li An's hands.

Belong to his little golden man!

"Su Mang, I'm proud of you!" Li An was also excited at this time, this was not only Ye Sumang winning the award. This is also a kind of glory of Chinese films, as an older generation of filmmakers, he has a lot of feelings about this.

“xiexie!” Ye Sumang took the trophy handed over by Ang Li and solemnly held it in his hand.

At this time, another award presenter also looked at Ye Sumang with a surprised face, and gave a friend a hug.

"You're so young, you can't believe it." After hugging, the female guest couldn't help but sigh.

"Beautiful lady, ability and age will never be equal, will you?" Ye Sumang blinked his eyes and responded confidently and humorously. Holding the trophy at this moment, he has a momentum that looks at the world.

"Well, you have a point, handsome big boy." Ye Sumang's small compliment obviously made the female guest feel good, and at the same time, Ye Sumang's confident answer also made her very appreciative, at this time, Ye Sumang's age was indeed blurred in her eyes.

Perhaps, this big boy will really become a shijie-level director, and the female guest at this time suddenly revealed such an idea in her heart that surprised her.

However, Ye Sumang didn't have the heart to look at the expressions of the people next to him at this time, standing on the podium. He suddenly realized that he had nothing to say.

Because he didn't have much expectations before, Ye Sumang simply didn't even prepare an acceptance speech this time. After this surprise, for a while, Ye Sumang only felt that his head was also chaotic.

For a second...

Five-second ......

Ten seconds .........

It was almost twenty seconds, Ye Sumang stood in front of the podium and didn't say a word, everyone at the scene showed puzzled eyes, and even showed a hint of ridicule, wondering if Ye Sumang was stunned by this award.

Because this year's Oscars only spoke for forty-five seconds. Although it is not a dead rule, it is obviously a rule for a newcomer like Ye Sumang, and Li An was also secretly anxious beside Ye Sumang, and hurriedly stabbed Ye Sumang's back secretly.

And this time, it seemed to wake Ye Sumang from his confusion

"I didn't expect that. I actually won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. After being silent for a long time, Ye Sumang finally spoke.

"To be honest, I didn't prepare any acceptance speeches, and I got this award, there are so many people to thank that I can't finish it in forty-five seconds, but here I want to mention one thing, I read an American movie magazine on the plane before, and a film critic from a famous school Johnson wrote a prediction article, which is very 'honored', and the movie I made is also among them, but it seems that this film critic named Johnson is very dismissive of my film, and only gives a 1% chance of winning the award, and also indicates that it is a consolation prize......"

When Ye Sumang said this, there couldn't help but sound a noisy discussion below, obviously many people have also read this prediction article.

"I want to say it here!" Ye Sumang's voice suddenly rose one degree, making everyone unconsciously glance at him, and saw Ye Sumang holding the trophy in his hand, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, announced: "Even if it is one percent, I have won this award, and it also makes me cherish this award even more, winning this award, I want to say, this may be the miracle of one percent!! ”

After speaking, Ye Sumang walked off the stage without hesitation, and walked towards his corner, this trip to the United States, he suffered a lot of depressed encounters, and just at the moment when he won the award, he had a feeling of 'pushing aside the dark clouds and seeing the moon', some people may think that he used his acceptance speech to criticize some people, which is a waste, but Ye Sumang does not feel it.

He is a young man with his own edges and pride, and I will step back if I look down on me!

Moreover, this was the first thing that came to his mind when thinking about his acceptance speech, and Ye Sumang felt that he had to say it, not to vomit or be unhappy!

"Well said, Su Mang, let that Yankee eat SHI." Zhang Xueyou said loudly unabashedly, he also read that article, and he was also very angry at the arrogant tone of the film critic, Ye Sumang's words were exactly what he wanted.

"Boss, show me the trophy." Before Ye Sumang sat down, Yuan Hong couldn't wait to take Ye Sumang's trophy and put it on the table, so that the three people who had not yet felt it could appreciate it.

Sitting back in his seat, Ye Sumang breathed a sigh of relief, and then a bright smile could no longer be hidden, he really won the award.

He won the Best Foreign Language Film award when he was still a few hours away from the age of twenty-two, and at this moment he became the youngest director to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

Although Ye Sumang has not figured out the reason why the judges favor him until now, it doesn't matter, because the trophy is already in his hand, this is the most realistic, thinking of this, Ye Sumang looked at the Oscar that was being held by Zhou Jing at this time, and a smile appeared on his face again.

And in the following award ceremony, the surprise continued.

Ang Lee, the Chinese director, finally won the first Oscar for Best Director in his directorial career, and his award also filled the gap of the Chinese director's Oscar for Best Director.

At the same time, this also set another record, the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Director, both won by the Chinese, which has never happened for more than 70 years.

Many Chinese who love movies can't help but feel excited when they see this scene......

And the next day's report, not surprisingly, was also the news of these two directors. (To be continued......)
