For Wang Xiaohu, the 53rd Academy Awards is very different from the last time he won four statuettes. 【Reading.com】

First of all, in the past two years, he has not made any films about the American side, even big productions such as "ET" and "First Blood" were only released this year, and he has completely missed the qualification for this year's Oscars.

Moreover, the only "Myth" that caused a box office earthquake in North America is completely authentic Chinese in terms of crew, and the United States claims that there will be no racial discrimination, but in fact racial discrimination is everywhere.

The success of "Rocky" a few years ago was not a coincidence, but it was completely represented behind the scenes by a big consortium like 20th Century Fox, because even if "Rocky" was nominated, it would bring huge benefits to Fox, which Winterdur told Wang Xiaohu afterwards, otherwise it would be impossible for Wang Xiaohu to win the Oscar for Best Director, Best Screenplay and other awards with Wang Xiaohu's identity and status back then.

"So Fox won't be helping us this time?" Wang Xiaohu asked on the phone.

"Yes, that's right!" Winterdur said: "One more point is crucial, Warner is getting in the way, damn it!" I expected them to make a little move, I didn't think it would be at such a time! ”

"Old Wen, don't worry, take your time to talk about what's going on." Wang Xiaohu frowned, trying to comfort the somewhat irritable Winterdur.

But his comfort didn't help, and Winterdur scolded on the phone for a long time before saying: "Boss, Ronald. Wilson. Reagan was elected president of the United States in a successful election last month, you should know about that, right? ”

"I know, of course, that on the day he won the election, there was a major fire in Hong Kong." Wang Xiaohu smiled and said, "But what does this have to do with Warner? ”

"Don't you know that Reagan was a star in Hollywood before he became governor?" "His first role in politics was the president of the Screen Actors Guild, which includes most of Hollywood actors, and he has made many movies for Warner, and he has a very friendly relationship with Warner!" Here's the problem, Warner Fox is pretending to be a tiger, they're canvassing for votes! ”

Winterdur was very angry, what he said was a mess, and Wang Xiaohu finally understood what was going on after listening to it for a long time.

To put it bluntly, the resentment with Warner finally broke out this time, their old friend Ronald Reagan became president, and Warner began to use Reagan's banner to block "Myth" in front of most of the judges to block the way for "Myth" to move further towards the Oscars, Winterdur said that if it was not acted in time, "Myth" might not even win the Best Foreign Language Film award, because every year the Oscar selection is like a lavish war.

Canvassing!

Canvassing for votes with a lot of money!

"Either some people invite the judges to go to Las Vegas for a few days to gamble, or we have a couple of big drinks or patty invites all the judges, we can't get any chances other than that!"

Winterdur said eagerly on the phone: "Boss, let's act, if it's delayed, "Myth" will say goodbye to Oscar!" I'm going to use the money to negotiate with the Fox boss and ask them to help settle the matter, knowing that a lot of the judges have to look at their eyes. ”

Wang Xiaohu fell silent, because Winterdur's words made him very stimulated, he didn't expect that the road to the Oscars would be so difficult this time, let alone that the interior of the Oscars would be so dirty.

According to Winterdur, if you want to get through the relationship, you must go through Fox, and I believe that with the relationship between Concord and Fox for many years, Fox will be willing to help, and the question is how much it costs.

But with Wang Xiaohu's surname, this is obviously not what he wants, because once this precedent is set, Concord's future works will need Fox's help if they want to enter the Oscars.

What does this mean?

It represents that Concord still has no status in Hollywood!

After thinking about this, Wang Xiaohu has already made a decision: "Hey, Lao Wen, don't take any action and public relations!" ”

“why！” Winterdur exclaimed on the phone: "Boss, I heard you right, are you asking us to give up?" ”

"Yes, you heard it right, I mean we give up!" Wang Xiaohu laughed after speaking: "Fuck the bitch. The Oscar of the child-raised! ”

"Boss, please calm down, have you forgotten what you said at the Oscars a few years ago, you said that you would stand on the podium of the Oscars with your own movies belonging to the Chinese!"

"I said yes!" Wang Xiaohu took a deep breath and said: "But if the Oscars are selected like this, I can completely say no!" ”

"The Oscars will raise your value!" Winterdur felt that it was a pity to give up like this.

"I don't need an Oscar to prove my worth!" Wang Xiaohu said in a firm tone: "Lao Wen, look at it, even if I don't participate in the Oscars, I can still dominate the entire North American box office list!" ”

"Hell! What did I say today! Winterdur heard something unusual in his boss's tone, and he thought that the boss could make such an extreme decision, which was completely misled by the tone of his own speech.

"Hey, young man, I don't feel like this is the time to talk about this, we're all too excited right now, why don't we calm down and talk about it?"

Wang Xiaohu shrugged his shoulders and said into the phone: "Okay, wait until you calm down before talking." ”

In fact, since the moment Wang Xiaohu made his decision, he no longer planned to discuss this issue, he was just afraid that Winterdur would continue to go crazy, after all, he was an old man, if he was angry about this matter, where would he find such a good manager.

For others, the Oscar may be the ultimate goal in their film career, because obtaining the Oscar will greatly stimulate box office expectations, so as to obtain a high box office, and use the high box office to gain a fixed market share of North American films and accumulate capital.

So in Wang Xiaohu's previous life, there were many Chinese directors, especially the fifth-generation directors in the mainland, who squeezed their heads to hit the Oscars and were recognized by the world film tycoons, even if Wang Xiaohu is doing this now.

But after several years of capital accumulation, Wang Xiaohu already has his own company in Hollywood and a team that he is proud of, so it is no surprise that Rausch is attracted to him.

"Lao Tzu is in Hollywood to make money from Americans, do what he wants to do, want to deduct something from Lao Tzu's mouth, dream of it!" Wang Xiaohu punched the phone, making a clicking sound.

"Ah Hu, who made you lose your temper?" Zhao Yazhi rushed over when she heard the sound, saw the telephone broken into several sections, frowned and said, "You don't have to use the telephone to vent your anger when you are angry!" ”

Wang Xiaohu touched his nose in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now." ”

Zhao Yazhi glanced at her husband, shook her head and sighed, put the telephone in the trash, walked over and sat beside her husband and said softly: "Ah Hu, is there a problem on the United States side?" ”

Wang Xiaohu nodded "um", stretched out his hand and hugged his wife in his arms and said: "Ah Zhi, you official and I did a big stupid thing just now, I made Winterdour give up the opportunity to compete for the Oscar, don't you think it's stupid?" ”

"Huh?" Zhao Yazhi was stunned when she heard this, after a few years of husband and wife relationship, she knew that her husband was no longer the stunned young man he was back then, and said with a frown: "If it's something you don't want to do, even if others force you, it's useless, give up, give up, anyway, even if there are more little gold figures in our family, it's also a decoration." ”

"Hey, this is my Wang Xiaohu's good lady!" Wang Xiaohu smiled easily, hugged his wife and kissed him fiercely for a while, and then said: "I don't want the Oscars to be trapped, and I don't want to establish a bad impression for future Chinese filmmakers!" ”

"It would be very sad for a filmmaker to waste his entire artistic life on foreigners' awards." Zhao Yazhi patted her husband on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Comrade Wang Xiaohu, I'm glad to see that you have made a good start for filmmakers!" ”

Zhao Yazhi's serious appearance provoked Wang Xiaohu to laugh, he believes that only his wife in this world can support him so fully, marrying a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!

The news of Wang Xiaohu's abandonment of the 53rd Academy Awards quickly spread in Hollywood, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, Taiwan and even the mainland, and the first to react was Run Run Shaw, the former tycoon of the Hong Kong film industry, who ran to Wang Xiaohu's house in a menacing manner and began a few hours of criticism and education!

"Xiaohu, your brain is funny, is it that the achievements made in the past few years have made you fluttering, that is the Oscar, the highest honor in world cinema, how many people can't get in if they want to, you can be good, just give up! Who do you want to be angry with? ”

Run Run Shaw excitedly picked up his crutches and beat Wang Xiaohu's calf.

Wang Xiaohu sighed unmoved and said: "Lao Dou, the Oscar may be the highest honor for you, but he is not the most authoritative award, it is undeniable that I have such conditions, I can also throw money, but I don't want them to think that the Oscar is smashed with money, and I don't want people from the outside world to poke the backbone of Concord!" ”

"Why are you so dead-eyed! Ay! Run Run Shaw was so angry that he sat on the sofa panting, his eyes did not forget to stare at Wang Xiaohu, and he hated to beat him to death with a few crutches.
