Chapter 277: Best Documentary Feature

The small turmoil caused by Sharon Stone will not have any impact on the Oscars, which has been preparing for a long time and has attracted the attention of the whole United States. The award ceremony started on time, broadcast live in the United States by ABC, and many American viewers stayed in front of the television to watch the ceremony.

Best Supporting Actress, Best Sound Effects, Best Sound Editing, Best Makeup, Best Original Score...... The smaller awards began to be announced one by one, interspersed with the introduction of several films nominated for Best Picture, as well as the performance of guest performers, the three hosts mobilized the atmosphere of the scene, and the humor of the award presenters, the whole award ceremony was lively and cheerful, and the light was bright.

In the eyes of Chen Ping'an and Zhong Chuhong, the Oscars are far more than the current Hong Kong Film Awards in terms of scale, preparation, atmosphere and scene. It's normal to say that this year's Oscars are already the 59th, and the Hong Kong Film Awards are the 6th.

The award ceremony was well organized, with music and laughter. Last year, the American Dark Horse International developed well under the management of Anne Heard, investing in several films, all of which made money, but few films were nominated for this year's Oscars, and only Chen Ping'an's "City of Myths" was shortlisted for Best Documentary Feature.

Therefore, Chen Ping'an is not very interested in this Oscar, he is waiting for the collision of "Rain Man" and "The Last Emperor" next year, who is the final winner. He is now willing to flirt with Zhong Chuhong, and he is too lazy to listen to a group of incompletely developed white-skinned monkeys Kiri Wow.

"Ah Hong, why don't you speak?"

"I'm thinking about a problem."

"What's the problem?"

"I finally understand now why there are so many girls around you."

"Huh? What are you...... Jealous? Inexplicable! ”

"Isn't it? I can't believe that you can also be beautiful in the United States. Be the center of attention at any time. ”

"Are you blaming me?"

"How dare I. Joan looks at you differently and asks for your phone. You've just met! How dare I blame you, if you're not careful. Maybe I'll be replaced by some young and beautiful girl. ”

"Am I supposed to be proud?"

"Phew, you go back to the hotel tonight, don't touch me."

"Then I'll talk to Chen Chong."

"You dare."

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, I'm kidding you. It's enough to have you by my side, how can I think about other women? Didn't I tell her the phone? ”

"That's pretty much it...... Hey, what's going on? ”

When the two muttered quietly, a huge uproar suddenly broke out at the scene, and Chen Ping'an and Zhong Chuhong hadn't figured it out yet. found that the light hit the two of them, and their eyes were also focused.

What's going on again?

Chen Ping'an frowned, and listened to Li Xiaolin next to him lower his voice, and said excitedly: "Boss, let you come to the stage to accept the award!" ”

It seems that this surprise is too big, and Mr. Chen Ping'an has not yet woken up from the shock. It's no wonder that I think everyone here probably wouldn't have thought of this year's Best Documentary Feature Film Award. fell back on this young man who has been in the industry for less than three years and is not yet twenty-five years old. Now, I declare it again, the fifty-ninth Academy Awards. The winner of the Best Documentary Feature Film was "City of Myths"! ”

Award presenter Steve. The Guggenberg was very good at adjusting the atmosphere, although Chen Ping'an was not surprised by the award, but he was distracted and didn't hear it. But in his mouth, everyone thinks. Chen Ping'an was surprised because of an unexpected ...... Confused. That's why there was no reaction, even if the light shone on him.

There was nothing in the hall like the previous announcement of the winners. There was a round of applause, but there was an uproar.

If before tonight, he was only a well-known director in Hollywood, then after tonight, the whole of Hollywood will know about his existence.

It was he who single-handedly banned the white actor Sharon Stone. Although Sharon Stone is only a third- or fourth-tier actress with little fame, she has also made history. Never before in the history of Hollywood has one person been able to do it.

Even if all the blacks present played a decisive role in the ban on Sharon Stone, if it weren't for Chen Ping'an's head, everyone believed that blacks would not say anything about refusing to cooperate with Sharon Stone and appearing in the same crew.

Tonight, the proud whites finally realized the power of black people, but they were even more aware of Chen Ping'an, the close relationship between a Chinese and a black man, and another energy that is not visible in the film industry.

And now, the best documentary feature film was actually awarded to him for "The City of Myths...... Is it good that he is Chinese, it would be good to give a nomination!

In Zhong Chuhong's excited gaze, Chen Ping'an stood up, looked around, and said with a smile: "Where is the applause?" ”

If it is put in Hong Kong, Taiwan or the mainland, a little-known winner dares to say such things at a feast in the film industry, in front of many popular stars and big-name directors, it will be regarded as rampant and arrogant. But in the United States, the difference in cultural ideas, Americans do not see this as arrogance, but rather as a manifestation of self-confidence.

Folist Whitaker was the first to wake up from his astonishment and take the lead in applauding. Just because of "City of Myths", he took over several films last year. Although they are all supporting roles, the roles are not small, and for a newcomer in the film industry who has just debuted like him, and he is a black man, it is already a very huge achievement!

Black stars applauded vigorously, and many white people also applauded Chen Ping'an's sentence "Where is the applause", and their views on Chen Ping'an began to change.

Walk on stage, take the trophy, and Steve. Guggenberg shook hands and embraced, and Chen Ping'an stood in front of the microphone and delivered his acceptance speech: "Surprise! I didn't expect that the jury would award the award for Best Documentary Feature to me, because I am an Oriental face, even though I had already obtained American citizenship at an early age.

I remember the year before last, after I finished filming "The Love of Ghosts", I approached Twentieth Century Fox to discuss distribution, and Mr. Alain Ryder Jr. saw the sample film and roared at me. Say I was a murderer and murdered that movie because the hero and heroine of that movie were Eastern faces......"

"Haha!" There was a burst of laughter from the audience, and the lights were given to little Alain Ryder at the right time, and he waved to Chen Ping'an, but heard Chen Ping'an continue: "At that time, I was going to throw white gloves on his body and fight him in a duel. It's not because he accuses me of murdering my movie, but because he scolded the male protagonist in the movie in front of me, but he didn't see that I was an idiot in his mouth. ”

Little Alain Ryder looked helpless, and the audience laughed even more happily, and they found that the Oriental people on the stage were not as old-fashioned and boring as they imagined, but very humorous, which was completely different from the Oriental people in their impression.

"Before the award ceremony, I personally encountered a little unhappiness, and I used to question the democratic freedoms in the United States, but now I know that I was wrong." Chen Ping'an held up the little golden figure, "The jury did not award me the trophy for the best documentary feature film because of my skin color, which made me truly realize what democracy is and what freedom is, and I am proud and proud to be a member of such a democratic and free country!" ”

"Bang Bang!"

Thunderous applause.

Regardless of whether the audience believed Chen Ping'an's last words or not, his admiration for democracy and freedom, which the United States has always flaunted, won the applause of everyone present. In particular, he said this as a Chinese-American, which was even more effective.

The style of the actors and films nominated for the Oscars is always influenced by historical and political factors. The Oscars are known as political and correct entertainment, and although the best documentary feature film is not an award, Chen Ping'an, as a Chinese-American, can say such a thing, which is more convincing than that of white Americans, which naturally satisfies some people.

In the warm applause, Chen Ping'an returned to his seat, and Zhong Chuhong said with a smile: "Congratulations." ”

Chen Ping'an stuffed the little golden man into Zhong Chuhong's hand: "Half of this award is yours?" ”

"Why?"

"As I said, you have a prosperous husband." Chen Ping'an's voice was very low, Zhong Chuhong's face turned red, and he said shyly: "If you hate it, you will bully others." ”

Chen Ping'an won the only award for Dark Horse International, and the subsequent awards have nothing to do with Dark Horse International.

Best Actor went to Paul Newman in "The Color of Money", Best Original Screenplay went to "The Hannah Sisters", Best Adapted Screenplay went to "Blue Sky Outside the Window", Best Director went to Oliver Stone, director of "Field Platoon", Best Actress went to Mary Matlin in "Daughter of a Sad God", and Best Picture went to "Field Platoon".

At the celebration reception after the awards ceremony, there were many more people who took the initiative to talk to Chen Ping'an, and even little Alain Ryder came over with a wine glass, saying that it was to celebrate "City of Myths" winning the best documentary feature film.

"I really didn't see the wrong person at the beginning, no wonder you didn't want to accept my kindness in the first place." Alain Ryder Jr. sighed, "I heard, you're planning to start filming "Terminator 2"? ”

"If it weren't for Mr. Ryder's support, I wouldn't be where I am today." Chen Ping'an's posture was relatively low. The United States is not Hong Kong, and now is not the time for him to act arbitrarily, and he lacks this capital for the time being.

"As far as I know, this time in Terminator 2, you plan to invest $100 million? The ambition of young people is truly impressive. ”

"Hehe, let's talk about juvenile madness, how can Mr. Ryder look at my little money?"

"I heard that you still refuse many film companies to co-invest in filming, so confident?"

"I'm confident in every film I make."

"Ha, it's good to have faith, but risks are always there. Young man, let me teach you a lesson, you can't put all your eggs in one basket because the risk is too great. ”

"I appreciate Mr. Ryder's kindness, but I think my basket is so strong that my eggs won't break if you put it in." (To be continued......) R752
