Chapter 419: Winning Again

"At the 60th Academy Awards, the winner of Best Director is, "The Last Emperor", Beneteau Berturucci!"

As Robin Williams announced the winners, there was a burst of cheers at the ceremony. You don't have to look at it to know that it's from the crew of "The Last Emperor".

"The Last Emperor" seems to have become the biggest winner of the Oscars tonight, and so far, every nominated award has won the final award, and none of them have failed.

As the Oscars draw to a close, counting Best Director, "The Last Emperor" has already won eight of the nine nominations, and the remaining one is Best Picture, which has not yet been announced.

The series of awards won by "The Last Emperor" seems to have become the biggest winner of this year's Oscars, and others are not only envious and congratulatory, but also jealous and hateful.

Whether it is "Rain Man", which has won eight nominations, or "Moonlight Sultry", which has won seven nominations, they have lost in the face of the behemoth-like "The Last Emperor".

Before Robin Williams announced the best director, Zhong Chuhong's heart was always on the table. This is the award that can bring the most glory to Chen Ping'an, and it is very important to Chen Ping'an.

Not only her, but also Lin Qingxia, Chen Chong, Wu Yusen, Zhou Yanfa, Bao Dexi, Li Xiaolin, Anne Hurd, Cameron, Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Dustin Hoffman and others are very concerned about who will win this award, and it is best for Chen Ping'an to win it.

After the final results were announced, both the Dark Horse International side and the crew of "Rain Man" couldn't help but lament Chen Ping'an's miss with the best director.

If he can win the best director, he will continue to increase his value and fame, and every movie he will direct in the future will have such a sentence in front of it - "This film is directed by the 60th Academy Award for Best Director himself......"

"A'an, it's okay, not this year, come back next year. My man is very talented, and he will definitely win the best director. ”

Zhong Chuhong comforted in a whisper, Chen Ping'an glanced at her, and smiled disapprerovingly: "I'm not surprised by this result, it's what I expected." ”

At tonight's awards ceremony, Chen Ping'an didn't want to win too much weight and awards.

He knows very well that this is America, the Oscar is the highest honor for American films, and he is Chinese-American. So at tonight's awards ceremony, he is sure that it is Dustin Hoffman for Best Actor, a few technical awards to see luck, and finally the best picture.

To put it bluntly, he didn't have much hope for his personal award. According to Jon Voight's call, he thinks "Rain Man" can win a trophy or two in terms of technical awards, and then challenge for best picture.

I didn't expect to win a single technical award, but I got the best original screenplay, which can't help but be said to be a surprise.

As for Best Director...... In fact, Anne Heard knows very well that even if Chen Ping'an is a Chinese-American, it is difficult.

Therefore, Beneteau Berturucci won the best director, Chen Ping'an was not surprised at all, and he did not need to be comforted.

Lin Qingxia suddenly felt that this year's Oscars were a bit similar to the Hong Kong Film Awards in 85, and the part about Chen Ping'an was very similar. All of the films directed by the directors have received multiple nominations, and most of the nominations have failed.

However, at the 85 Hong Kong Film Awards, "Police Story", which failed many awards, finally won the Best Picture Award, will this year's Oscars be the same?

"Alas, Chen still fell at his own hands." Anthony Hopkins muttered suddenly.

Lin Qingxia didn't understand: "What do you say?" ”

"Didn't you notice that at this Oscar, oriental elements dominated?"

"The Last Emperor" and "Rain Man" are the biggest favorites of this Oscar.

Needless to say, the former reflects the life of the last emperor Puyi, and was jointly produced by Italy's Yanke Film Company, Britain's Daoao Film Company, China Film Co-production Company, and Japan's Shochiku Pictures, and was filmed in the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Although the latter was completed in the United States from actor to filming, the director and screenwriter Chen Ping'an is a Chinese-American. As we all know, Chen Ping'an likes to find Chinese actors to play the main roles in movies.

Although the loss of the Golden Globe Awards has lowered the public's expectations for "Rain Man" a lot, after winning Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay in succession tonight, this expectation has rebounded.

Throughout the past few years, Chen Ping'an has participated in the production of "People and Ghosts", "Blood Spots", "City of Myths", "Coming to the United States" and other movies with Chinese actors, and they also play important roles. Coupled with the many movies in which Zhong Chuhong has starred, there have been more than 20 movies in which Chinese people have played important roles in recent years.

Although the more than 20 films are a pitiful number of films made in the United States in a year, it is a phenomenon that Hollywood has never seen before, and it is a sign that more and more Americans are interested in the East.

This is evident in the number of American tourists who visit Hong Kong each year to visit the Kowloon Walled City.

Although the Kowloon Walled City is still as dilapidated and dirty as before, it is only on the surface, and the order inside has been very well stabilized, at least there will be no more robbery, murder and other serious crimes.

Even if it is a river dragon that runs away and hides here, he has to abide by the rules here, and live honestly under the desperate fight of the local snake.

The five major forces inside had invited Chen Ping'an to drink, and asked him something during the banquet, which made Chen Ping'an dumbfounded.

The mainland actually sent people to negotiate with them, which made the major forces in the Kowloon Walled City not know what to do, and they could ask Chen Ping'an. Chen Ping'an gave a clear reply, Hong Kong's return is the trend of the times, as long as the conditions put forward by the mainland are not too harsh, they can agree, and they must actively cooperate, otherwise they will wait to be flattened by the mainland's army.

The prestige of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is still very deterrent, and the so-called Third World War has brought out the momentum and majesty of the Chinese army, so that the whole world does not dare to underestimate it. How dare you compete with the Chinese army with this bit of community strength in the Kowloon Walled City?

To get back to the point, in addition to the above movies, several special movies such as "Bloody Heroes" and "Midnight Bell" have also caused a lot of influence in the United States.

It's a subtle influence that the authorities are obsessed with, and most Americans don't notice. Even if a very small number of people are aware of it, they don't care too much, and they don't think that this oriental element can affect American movies.

Anthony Hopkins is an outsider, a bystander. When he first came to the United States, he easily felt this, and he also had a new understanding of Chen Ping'an's influence. In his opinion, the fact that oriental elements can dominate this year's Oscars should be attributed to Chen Ping'an.

It was he who made more Americans understand the Orient through movies and became interested in the mysterious Orient, so that "The Last Emperor" was in the limelight, and "Rain Man" directed by him was suppressed by the other party.

This time, there is a saying that "Chen Ping'an was defeated in his own hands".

He also has so much influence in the United States? Lin Qingxia stared at Chen Ping'an, who was laughing with Zhong Chuhong in front of her, with a strange look in her eyes.

After the announcement of the best director, Paul . Newman took the stage and presented the award for Best Actress.

Chen Chong in "The Last Emperor" and Julia Roberts in "Rain Man" were not nominated for this award, and the Best Actress was won by Cher in "Moonlight", which was also the first time she won a big enough award for "Moonlight" after the Oscars.

When Cher finished her acceptance speech with tears in her eyes and walked off the stage, the audience knew that the most important award tonight was about to be made.

Black movie star Eddie. Murphy takes the stage and he will announce the last award of this year's Oscars, Best Picture.

The nominees for Best Picture were: "The Last Emperor", "Rain Man", "Moonlight", "Fatal Temptation" and "Broadcast News".

Needless to say, the first three films, the last two films also received five nominations at this year's Oscars, but so far they have not won a single award, which is also their last chance to turn over.

Best Picture is the last award, and the five nominees have coveted high hopes and are looking at Eddie Murphy on stage with burning eyes.

Eddie Murphy wasn't in a hurry. Ever since he discovered his comedic talent through "Coming to America", he has always expressed his humor in some public places.

Kiri Wah said a lot, and the directors and producers of the five films took turns teasing, and then he picked up the envelope and opened it slowly.

"Hiss......"

When he saw the contents of the envelope, he gasped exaggeratedly, as if he had seen something unbelievable. Quickly pushing the card back into the envelope, looking at the directors and producers of the five films, he grinned, "Guess what I saw?" ”

A couple of grumpy spectators almost didn't take off their shoes and smashed him.

Eddie Murphy and Chen Ping'an have a good relationship, he looked around, and finally fixed his eyes on Chen Ping'an: "Chen, you tell me the truth, if "Rain Man" didn't win the best picture, would you jump off the building and commit suicide?" ”

"Yes." Chen Ping'an said angrily, "But before jumping, I will definitely kick you down first." ”

"It's cruel! Good thing you don't have to jump off the building. Eddie Murphy quickly pulled the card out of the envelope and announced loudly: "Congratulations to director Chen for "Rain Man", which won this year's Oscar for Best Picture! Congratulations I don't have to be kicked by him! Why didn't you all respond? ”

Eddie Murphy announced the final result, but the audience was silent, the applause did not ring out as usual, and even Chen Ping'an did not react, and was still sitting in his seat.

The way Eddie Murphy announced the winners was so unusual that no one in the audience believed his words, and thought that he deliberately ridiculed Chen Ping'an, and even Chen Ping'an thought so.

It takes the directors and producers of the five films to tease it before the final winners are announced, how can it be so straightforward?

"What I said is true! If you don't believe me, I can show you! ”

Eddie Murphy flipped the card in his hand, and the side with the name of the award-winning movie written on it faced the audience, and the audience in the front row could see it clearly, and there were two English words written on it - "RainMan"! R1152
