Chapter 192: Kai Mén is very popular

"Every year, it's so crazy" got off the float, Liang Xiǎo Long was a little dizzy, crowded with people, all of them with extremely fanatical faces, as if they were about to rush up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Honey, say hello to the shadows." Rachel held Liang Xiǎo Dragon, she knew that Liang Xiǎo Dragon was worried about her and the baby in her belly, but don't look at these shadows like crazy, but in fact, they are very measured, and they will never come. What's more, there are so many security personnel at the scene, it is impossible for the guests to have an accident.

"Rachel, this ......" they waved to greet the mistresses, and the reporters waved them over to capture the footage.

"Rachel's belly?" Suddenly, a reporter noticed a difference, Rachel has almost always attended the Oscars in recent years, and she is also wearing a cheongsam, which is very compatible with Liang Xiǎo Dragon Station. But today's Misè cheongsam makes people feel a little weird, and the belly is slightly bulging, although it is very subtle, but it is still keenly captured by this reporter.

The "pregnant" reporter keenly thought that this was a major piece of news, and when the time came, the topic of the love crystallization of Hollywood's greatest director and Oscar-winning actress would definitely make headlines. However, the reporter did not say anything, he preferred that no one would know the news, and just slammed Rachel's stomach.

Walking through the red carpet, Liang Xiǎo Long ran into Mark: "Captain, our two families are mortal enemies tonight." Mark is not false when he said this, "Shakespeare in Love" and "Life is Beautiful" are both distributed by McMillager, a subsidiary of Disney, so the two have become the biggest competitors.

"Tonight, it's the three of us singing against each other." Shirley didn't know where it came from, and she also smiled wryly, and "Saving Private Ryan" was co-published by Pyra Méng and DreamWorks. In other words, the four most competitive films are from their three companies, so that the three strategic partners have become sworn enemies tonight.

"That's not very good, internal digestion." Liang Xiǎo Long Wan'er smiled, he was also helpless about this kind of result.

"That's right, let's give the Oscar judges a headache." Shirley laughed and talked about the movie again: ""Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasty 2" also has a certain breakthrough, and it is imperative to shoot a sequel, but it is also a headache, Michael's guy is going to pick on him." "Starting with "The Peerless Tribulation", Michael. The partnership between Bei and Pyra Méng is very pleasant, but this year he was also stabbed by Liang Xiǎo Long, who believes that the series "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" has a strong box office ability, but it is impossible to achieve a leaping breakthrough, so he is also ready to find another development.

"I'm having a headache about this, too." Speaking of this, Mark also looked helpless, the "Tomb Robber MI City" series has completed four parts, but the box office of "The Return of the Mummy" is not as high as imagined, only getting more than 400 million US dollars, far inferior to the two series of "Terracotta Warriors" and "Immortal War Spirit". Therefore, it is impossible to shoot Egyptian themes again. According to his thoughts, returning to the Chinese theme is the best choice. But at this critical juncture, Stephen is also going to pick a pick.

"You guys, it's really ......" Liang Xiǎo Long smiled bitterly, it's all the director who wants to pick a child, what can he do? Moreover, Rachel has also decided to jump out of the "Tomb Robbery MI City" series, which means that the NV protagonist is also going to be replaced, which will be even more depressing.

"Originally, I was going to let Zhang Yimou come to my sister's stall." Shirley sighed lightly, after watching "Hero", she recognized Zhang Yimou's directing ability to a certain extent, as long as she could give Zhang Yimou a script, it would not be difficult to make a good movie. However, Zhang Yimou is determined to stay in China for development, and Shirley is helpless.

"John Woo, you should be very good at creating these films." Liang Xiǎo Long proposed that among the many Chinese directors, John Woo's level is undoubtedly top-notch, and Liang Xiǎo Long is now preparing to continue to ask John Woo to shoot the sequel to "Speed and Affection".

"I took over "Mission Impossible 2", but the script hasn't come out yet, and it is estimated that it will not be released until next year." Shirley had already considered John Woo, but she had already signed "Mission Impossible 2", and "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties 3" could only be given to others. Now he is also choosing directors all over Hollywood, first of all, this director must understand Chinese culture and not have any prejudice, which is the basis for making a good film. Secondly, it is the ability to shoot blockbusters, the same script, the same money, and different directors, there will be a big difference in the box office.

"Shirley, you better pick a director slowly, Hollywood has never lacked good directors." Mark said with a bitter face: "The key is on my side, the director of "Tomb Robbery MI City" and the NV protagonist pick on the child at the same time, and the impact is too great." So, Captain, you'll have to convince Rachel to make another sequel. ”

"Even if she wants to take the film now, she can't do it." Liang Xiǎo Long shrugged his shoulders and asked them all to come closer, before Xiǎo said, "Rachel is pregnant." ”

"Congratulations, congratulations......" Mark grimaced, this would be considered hopeless, and Rachel couldn't be allowed to go on the set with a big belly, right? That Liang xiǎo dragon did not destroy other humanity.

"Actually, there's no need to care too much about this, as long as the quality of the film is passable, the filmmakers won't find máo disease in this regard." Liang Xiǎo Long said comfortingly.

"That's right, our company's "007" series has been filmed for so long, and the actors have changed several shifts, and the box office is no problem." Shirley added.

"That's the only way, but in the choice of theme, you have to give some advice, captain." Mark is most concerned about this, although with the two films "Terracotta Army" and "Immortal War Soul", he has a certain understanding of Chinese culture and history, but after all, he is not a real Chinese, and it is more prudent to consult Liang Xiǎo Long in the choice of subject matter.

"It depends on whether you want to shoot historical figures like "Terracotta Warriors" or myths and legends like "Immortal War Spirit"."

"Of course, we have to go to myths and legends." Mark thought very clearly, although filming myths and legends will increase the cost, but because after "Immortal War Spirit", the filmmakers hope to shoot large-scale mythology, and it can also impact the audio-visual tension: "Moreover, this time I also thought about it, I am reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, increase investment, and raise the box office base." ”

"Then you go and tell Stephen that you are willing to invest more and make sure that the old guy is willing to stay." Liang Xiǎo Long joked: "As for the subject matter, I will help you think about it, and I can't let your investment go down the drain." ”

"yes, with additional investment, that guy might be willing to continue this theme." Mark smiled, he still hoped that the changes in the crew would be better, so that the variables would also be better.

"By the way, Shirley, are you going to shoot that character in "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasty 3"?" Liang Xiǎo Long is more concerned about this topic, after all, this series was born because of him, and he also hopes that this series can be filmed for a long time. Moreover, overseas, Chinese people very much want this series, especially those who live in Chinatown, and almost all men and women go to the cinema to watch this film.

"This time, we are also ready to achieve a breakthrough in scale, so we are ready to shoot the handsome Li Ji, who was born in Wagang like Qin Qiong, and is relatively easy to be accepted by Yingmi." Speaking of this theme, Shirley is satisfied in her heart, there are many heroes in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and a character can shoot a sequel, so there is no need to worry about the lack of themes. Moreover, even if the filming is finished in the end, the Tang Dynasty was founded, isn't there still a lot of heroes to shoot? What she has to do now is to stabilize the box office of each film, and then continue the series.

While chatting, Hillary Clinton walked over and hugged Liang Xiǎo Long: "Captain, how is the filming of the new film?" There is no horn sè, I go to make a cameo next. Liang Xiǎo Long smiled: "I would like to, but it's a pity that the whole film is my own performance." Hillary laughed: "That shadow is definitely going to die, and in terms of action, it will definitely make people crazy." ”

"But in terms of performance, it's definitely going to rot." Shirley struck a sentence, and she was also very surprised that Liang Xiǎo Long starred in the role of "Legend of Doom", after all, Liang Xiǎo Long did not have much actual acting experience.

"It's alright." Liang Xiǎo Long laughed, the film has been filming for so long, although there are relatively big difficulties for him in acting, but because he knows the opposite corner very well, it is generally quite smooth: "However, my new film is mainly based on special effects technology, and strives to create the most exaggerated and realistic audio-visual effects." ”

"yes, $250 million, I don't know until now, it turns out that Cameron is not particularly good at money." Shirley was most surprised by Liang Xiǎo Long's big spending, when Cameron Huā's $200 million creation of "Titanic" had already made her very depressed, but who would have thought that after two years, Liang Xiǎo Dragon would dare to spend $250 million out.

"Warner's side is called depressed." Liang Xiǎo Long is also a little funny, when Warner knew that the production cost was as high as 250 million US dollars, he almost wanted to turn his face with Liang Xiǎo Long, if it weren't for the box office of the two films "My Leader, My Group" and "Million Dollar Baby", no one would dare to invest this money.

Talking and laughing, everyone dispersed, on the one hand, to take over the interview of ABC TV reporters, and on the other hand, to flow more with other peers. Liang Xiǎo Long also took over the interview again on this occasion, and the core question is whether he can win the Oscar xiǎo Golden Man, Liang Xiǎo Long said with emotion: "It's really regrettable that I didn't win Best Director and Best Picture last year, but this year's competition is even more fierce, "Shakespeare's Love History", "Saving Private Ryan" and "Beautiful Life" are all very strong opponents, and in the end, I can only say that since I was nominated, I naturally want to win these two awards. As for the final result, Jiāo is still a headache for the judges. ”

"And what about the best screenplay?" The reporter asked again: "Since 95, you have already taken two bottles of the best screenplay xiǎo golden man, will you take the third one?" ”

"It's still the same sentence, I want to take it, but it's still a headache for the judges." Liang Xiǎo Long ended the interview with a smile.

Time, bit by bit...... All the guests entered the venue and were divided into the best lineups, among which Pyra Méng and Yan Huang Films were arranged together, because Tom was nominated for two Oscars, one of which was Pyra Méng and the other was Yan Huang Films. However, Tom is also the most apprehensive, his two films, one with a box office of as high as $1.4 billion, and the other with a box office of nearly $500 million, are the two highest-grossing films in Hollywood this year, and his chances of winning the xiǎo golden man are also very high.

But he has already won the Oscar for a second consecutive year, and there is no one to surpass, if he takes another Xiǎo Golden Man, how can this be surpassed by future generations? So, it is highly likely that for this reason, the Oscar judges will vote for someone else. Morgan Sr. is also very nervous, it is the fourth time he has been nominated for an Oscar, can he get his wish?

The Oscar prelude sounded slowly, and now people are familiar with this song, and when it sounds, people subconsciously think: Oscar is coming

The song in just forty-five seconds brought a lot of memories to the filmmakers on the spot, and the next film huā was to transform the memories of all the filmmakers into pictures. Goldberg is the embodiment of an all-powerful super funny warrior, laughing and spoofing in various scenes. In "Saving Private Ryan", she incarnates the unbeatable Superman, rushing in and out of the battlefield, with hundreds of bullets in her body, and shouting that I can't die...... In "Shakespeare's Love History", she has incarnated the protagonist of the NV, and mischievous the male protagonist...... In "Million Dollar Baby", she became a super fighter again, and she was beaten up as soon as she got into the ring......

The hilarious scene put everyone at ease, and the host Whoopy. Goldberg finally took the stage, and like every Oscar, she had to sing a one-man show on stage alone, and then summarize Hollywood's work in the previous year, of course, it is indispensable to make people laugh, even the most important part.

Talking about the impact of the economic crisis on Hollywood, Whoopi criticized international speculators even more harshly, scolding them as vampires. Liang Xiǎo Long and Carl glanced at each other and looked at each other, as if they were the vampires in Whoopi's mouth. However, it was not just the two of them who were present, it can be said that the eight giants of Hollywood, and even the backstage of other film companies, were involved in the hype of the economic crisis. It's just that most of them are not as lucky as Liang Xiǎo Long and Carl, and they didn't make a move against Hong Kong and Russia in order to keep all the gains.

"The economic crisis lasted from '97 to the end of '98, but thankfully, it's finally over, and this year is where we filmmakers can do a lot of work." Whoopi shouted excitedly, and then added: "Speaking of the economic crisis and the film industry, here I have to say thank you to the captain, who caused the madness of 97 when the box office market was low; In 98, the box office market was still low, and he used "Million Dollar Baby" to live the box office market, recovering a lot of losses for major film companies. Of course, saying this has nothing to do with the judges, don't think that xiǎo Jin Ren is the captain's bag, maybe he will return empty-handed tonight. ”

The last sentence made everyone laugh, but everyone knew it was just a joke, "Million Dollar Baby" has fifteen nominations, how could it be empty-handed?

After a lot of talking, it was finally time to start revealing all the awards, the first award was the Best Foreign Language Film Award, Liang Xiǎo Long could think even if he used his toes, it would definitely be taken away by "Beautiful Life". That's exactly what happened, Roberto. When Bernini took the stage and excitedly delivered his acceptance speech, the crew of "Hero" led by Zhang Yimou was a little depressed, what a rare opportunity, so I missed it.

In fact, this is also inevitable, "Life is Beautiful" produced in Italy, and it can be nominated for seven Oscars, which is enough to show its quality, and the defeat of "Hero" has become inevitable.

The first award was announced, but for most of the filmmakers present, the second award began and the real competition began.

The first to be revealed is the Oscar for Best Musical, and of the five films nominated, three are animated films, namely "The Prince of Egypt", "Baby Xiǎo Pig: Xiǎo Pig Enters the City", "Looking for Camilo City", and the other two are "The Horse Whisperer" and "Million Dollar Baby".

"The winner of the best music is the cartoon ......" The award presenter elongated his accent very badly, but it made Liang Xiǎo Long very depressed, it was a cartoon, so "Million Dollar Baby" was no play. Originally, he also hoped to win as many awards as possible, preferably to the same heights as "Ben Hur" and "Titanic".

"I swear I'll never compose the soundtrack for a film starring this guy in the future." Jerry. Goldsmith cursed viciously.

"I saw it clearly, all the cartoons were down." The NV guest reminded him, and the male guest smiled: "Create some atmosphere, but it's up to you to reveal whether it's "Horse Whisperer" or "Million Dollar Baby" written on it." ”

"This hunball ......," Jerry scolded again.

"Jerry, don't worry, this Xiǎo Golden Man is yours." Liang Xiǎo Long laughed easily, as long as it was not "Prince Xiǎo of Egypt", then it must be "Million Baby", because in the previous life, "Prince of Egypt" defeated "The Horse Whisperer" by an absolute advantage.

"Really?" Jerry was obviously a little worried, but before his words fell, the voice of the NV guest rang out: "The winner of the best song is "Million Dollar Baby", congratulations Jerry. Goldsmith. ”

"Your mouth is really smart." Maybe because of Liang Xiǎo Long's words, Jerry was a lot more relaxed, and after hugging the crew, he came to the stage, took the Xiǎo Golden Man, and said an acceptance speech movingly, so angry that the organizer kept muttering backstage: "Forty-five seconds, man, don't think that you can break the rules if you are an old guy, get out of the way when you are done......"

Jerry is in violation, but the organizers are helpless, this kind of thing is not controllable by man. However, what shocked the organizers was that the next best soundtrack (drama category) won the award for "Million Dollar Baby", and Jerry came to the stage to accept the award: "Old guy, you are doing well, you have thanked enough just now, you don't have to do it again, just get off the stage." ”
