For Lin Yuquan, after the award of the best song, the curtain of this year's Oscars has come to an end, and after that, he is just a leisurely spectator, and soon the 79th Academy Awards ceremony came to a successful conclusion.

As in previous years, although the battle for the major awards has come to an end, the carnival belonging to the stars has just begun.

As one of the three major banquets after the Oscars, the Vanity Fair party is organized by the magazine, although slightly inferior to the Oscar dinner, but the Vanity Fair party is the highlight of the Oscars every year, and the number of stars present is no less than the Oscars scene.

And compared to the formality of the Oscar dinner, the atmosphere of Vanity Fair is undoubtedly quite relaxed, here, the joy of the star winners after winning the award is fully revealed in front of the camera, at this moment, they are undoubtedly the biggest protagonists in front of the camera.

This year is no different, as soon as the Oscars are over, this year's Oscar winner for Best Director Martin. Scorsese, Best Actor and Actress Forrestal. Whitaker, Helen. Mirren, Best Supporting Actor and Actress Allen. Kim. Jennifer. Hudson, and Kate. Winslet, Stallone, Leonardo. DiCaprio, Kate. Blanchett, Nicole. Kidman, Tom. Cruise, Anne. Hathaway, Penelope. Cruz, Tom. Hanks, Madonna, Gwyneth. Paltrow, Naomi. Watts and other big names made appearances, and the winners also attended with trophies, adding a lot of color to the dinner.

Among them, the competition of female stars has also become a beautiful scenery at the dinner. This has always been something that the general public likes to watch. Tall Penelope. Cruz flesh red strapless versace skirt. At the same time, the scenery on the chest is unobstructed, and the beautiful back is showing; Gwyneth. Paltrow's apricot yellow cobweb-tulle chiffon, pleated style, hip cinching and fishtail group swing can best show off the slender figure; Naomi Watts' yellow escada dress and sky blue belt are all cute and cute. Hathaway wears a white strapless gown with a black bow at the neckline

Of course, there are no less Lin Yuquan, after the award ceremony. He didn't go directly to the Oscar dinner, but first came to Vanity Fair to send duì, and then went there to catch up.

And even in the star-studded Vanity Fair faction, Lin Yuquan is still one of the most eye-catching focuses in the field, his youth, his handsomeness, his identity as a director and film company boss, and his hundreds of millions of net worth at a young age make him the most popular object in the pie, and there is almost no shortage of celebrities to congratulate and talk to.

"Hey, Lin, congratulations, two Oscar statuettes. It's really enviable, you are the only one in our group of action actors who won the Oscar. "Wait for Rachel. As soon as Weisz left. Stallone immediately came over, with a look of envy.

"It's right to win the Oscar, but it's not an actor, I don't even have a nomination for the actor award, this is not the only one among the action actors who won the award, and you know, my job is a director, and the actor is incidental, not to mention the costume design, as I said in my speech, this is simply the most unprofessional award, I would prefer to win the award for Best Picture, Best Director or Best Screenplay, even if it is a nomination!" Lin Yuquan raised his wine glass and took a sip, then said with a smile.

"Oh, what a greedy guy, I know you can't understand the pain of those of us who didn't win the Oscar, it's really more popular than people, I've been in the entertainment industry for almost forty years, and I just got nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay, but this was thirty years ago." Stallone said sourly.

"Heh, you don't have to win the Oscar, you and Arnold, Leonardo, Will. Smith, Tom. Cruise, Kim. Carrey has never won an Oscar, but who would say that you are not superstars, of course it is good to have awards, but not is not bad, after all, as long as the actor is good, the audience likes it is the greatest success, and only literary actors urgently need awards to prove themselves. Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

This is actually his attitude towards the Oscars and major film awards, it is true that he also wants to win awards such as the Oscars, Golden Globes, and Golden Horse Awards, but if he can't get it, he won't complain or complain or anything, he will only work harder to make films.

What's more, he didn't make movies specifically for the Oscar or any awards, he just made the movies he wanted to make, and made movies that the audience would like, and winning awards was incidental, not to say that it didn't matter, but at least it wasn't that important.

"That's right." Stallone nodded, there are really few real box office superstars who can win an Oscar, after all, the movies that can win the Oscar actor type award are basically literary films or small and medium-cost and niche films, not to mention like the previous Will . Farrell sang at the awards ceremony that comedians are the most tragic actors, and action actors are also difficult to get Oscar recognition, which can be seen from the fact that he has only been shortlisted for the Oscar once so far, and Schwarzenegger has not been recognized once.

After taking a sip of the cocktail, Stallone continued: "But in any case, you have won two Oscars, and you have won the award of Best Costume Design for two consecutive years, which is your so-called non-professional award, which is very worthy of congratulations, and it will also make you the fried chicken in the media coverage." ”

Although Lin Yuquan's award weight is not so heavy, it is difficult to prevent him from being noticed by the media when comparing Lin Yuquan's directorial identity and hot popularity with the awards he has won.

"Huh." Lin Yuquan smiled, he also understood this: "It's just a little bit more mentioned by the media, and the one who has really been reported by the media at length. Scorsese is right, he is the biggest winner of this year's Oscars. ”

"Yes, although I knew that Martin would win the award, I didn't expect him to win such an award, such a heavy award, hey, Oscar is giving him the award he owed to Martin at one time!" Stallone's tone was full of ridicule.

Lin Yuquan smiled and didn't say anything, in fact, until now he was very interested in Martin. Scorsese was surprised by tonight's win. Is it that good? No. The film can only be described as decent. Far from being called Martin. Scorsese's best masterpiece, said that it is commercial, the action scenes and plot in the film do not have a hearty feeling, it is said that it is literary, and the connotation of the film is not deep enough, but it is such a movie that won the four awards of Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Editing in one fell swoop.

If it is awarded to Martin. Scorsese won one of the best director awards to the Oscar Martin. If Scorsese should have won the award to him, the awards for Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Editing would inevitably be less convincing, let alone deserved.

Of course, it has nothing to do with him. It was a huge impact on other films, but it was not him who was impacted, first of all, he went to the Oscars with a big hit, and this film that was particularly optimistic in advance was nominated for 7 important awards and only won a technical award for best soundtrack, which can be called the biggest loser of this Oscar. The second was shortlisted with 8 nominations, and finally only won two awards: Best Supporting Actress and Best Sound Effects.

"Don't talk about this, you should be mentally prepared, my new movie will start shooting at the end of March, and you give me Arnold's contact information, and I will call them and tell them, if you want to play, you can play a big one."

While the stars enjoy a pie duì dinner. Media reporters from all over the world are busy, as an annual event in the entertainment industry. The end of the Oscars quickly made the headlines of most of the world's entertainment pages.

According to the preliminary statistics of the Nielsen Ratings Survey, although this year's Oscars are lengthy, this year's Oscars TV ratings have improved significantly compared to last year. Scorsese and Clint. Eastwood's fateful showdown, this year's Oscar TV broadcasts averaged 42.9 million viewers, an increase of about 12 million viewers from last year. Such an excellent rating table is rare after the 70th Academy Awards, which was attended by 55 million viewers.

The title is "The 79th Oscars Flooded with Dark Horses." The report mentioned: "Taking stock of this year's Oscars, although more than half of the expected winners earlier are Oscar winners, there are still some winners who are dark horses running out of this year's Oscars." ”

Among them, it is emphatically mentioned: "Looking at the dark horses, the brightest dark horse is the adapted film, which won four awards in one fell swoop, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Editing, becoming the big winner of the night."

With this film, Martin. Scorsese finally won the best director he had been coveted for 26 years after missing out on five Oscar nominations for Best Director, and of course, this award was well received for him, as he himself said in his acceptance speech, 'Over the years, too many people have wanted me to win this award!' ’

It is said that it is a dark horse because it defeated a number of strong opponents before winning the best director and won the best adapted screenplay and best editing awards, as for it will be the biggest dark horse because it won the most important award of best picture, although everyone has been prepared to bear the dark horse after winning three awards, but after announcing that it is the winner of this award, everyone still can't help but feel sorry for the film that was the most promising to win this award.

And the Oscars summed up for Martin. Scorsese's most important work is even more untenable, but if it is an award, it is a different matter. ”

"It's a memorable Oscar night for black actors," the headline said: "Since 2002, black superstar Denzel Washington and sexy actress Harry Berry won the Oscar for Best Actor, and it has also opened an unprecedented page for a black movie star to win the Best Lead Actor award." In recent years, black movie stars have gained a lot in the Oscars and gradually occupied their own place.

In addition, Jamie Fox, veteran actor Morgan Freeman both left their footprints on the Oscar stage in 2005. Jamie Fox won Best Actor for a biopic of a black soul singer. And veteran Morgan Freeman also won the award for supporting actor.

And with Forrest. Whitaker won the Oscars this year, and the plump Jennifer Hudson won Best Supporting Actress, and tonight was another night to remember for black Hollywood actors. ”

When it comes to the overall evaluation of this Oscar, the evaluation of major foreign media is generally disappointed, and the center of the report is basically focused on Martin. Scorsese got what he wanted, but when it came to Lin Yuquan, it was almost all praise. "The award for Best Costume Design and Best Visual Effects is well deserved." "Kung Fu Lin has won the record for the youngest award at the Zào Oscar." "Four Oscars in two years, this is Kung Fu Lin's Oscar journey."

Of course, the views of the domestic media on this year's Oscars are different from those abroad, and the focus must be on Lin Yuquan.

"Unparalleled, winning four Oscars in two years, Lin Yuquan's magical record continues."

"The youngest award winner in the history of the Oscars, Lin Yuquan has created his own Oscar mark."

"Best costume design doesn't matter, no, this is Lin Yuquan's most glorious award to date."

After winning the Best Costume Design Award and Best Visual Effects Award at this year's Oscars, although Lin Yuquan is very young among the directors. The debut qualifications are not long, but most media believe that Lin Yuquan has become a well-deserved leader in today's mainland film industry. Beyond the factors of age and qualifications, he stands in the position of a big director who is on a par with Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Feng Xiaogang's domestic influence, and is actually the most significant business card of the mainland film industry in the international film industry.

As for other aspects, they are slightly mentioned, and they are more disappointed like foreign media, "Martin has been an Oscar boss for 27 years", "Is the award a strong Hong Kong film or the sadness of the Oscar", "There is no surprise at the Oscars tonight, each has its own place", "Start with globalization and end with Americanization".

When Lin Yuquan saw the report, he was already on the plane flight back to Kyoto, he went to Los Angeles this time just to attend the Oscars, since the awards ceremony is over, he naturally has to come back, the Spring Festival in China is not over yet, and Lin's father and Lin's mother are also in Kyoto, how could he not come back to accompany Lin's father and Lin's mother.

The school is about to start, and knowing that Lin Yuquan is busy with work, after Lin Yuquan returned to Kyoto, the family of three happily played in Kyoto and nearby attractions for three days.

When Lin's father and mother left, Lin Yuquan of course wanted to immediately devote himself to the preparation of the new movie, but he did not fly to Los Angeles immediately, but participated in the recording first.

Because he won the Oscar, the media and the public have exploded with amazing enthusiasm in the past few days, although he doesn't need to do any publicity, but in the face of everyone's enthusiasm, if he doesn't stand up and say something, it is estimated that he will arouse public anger.

The recording location happened to be in Kyoto, which was just right for him.

This is the second time Lin Yuquan has recorded this show, and the recording session can be said to be familiar with the road, but unlike last time, last time he accompanied Ning Hao's crew, and today he is the protagonist.

At the recording site of the program, Lin Yuquan and Cheng Luyu's sofa sat opposite each other, and students from Kyoto colleges and universities sat in the audience, all of whom watched the video on the big screen behind.

This video was made urgently at Lin Yuquan's house after receiving Lin Yuquan's invitation.

In the video, several green photos of Lin Yuquan standing on the grass appeared, and the narration sounded during the playback.

"He was originally a student majoring in film and television at Kyoto Normal University, and according to the established trajectory, he should stay in school to teach or go to work in TV stations and film and television companies, but he has always been eager to make movies, and as time goes by, he becomes more and more eager to do so, and finally, he made up his mind, and after taking a leave of absence, he was introduced by the professor to enter the Kyoto Film Academy directing training class to audit and study, and half a year later, he shot his first film, and this movie is."

In the video, the initial newspaper report about the movie appeared, and the eye-catching headline was all questioning, so he almost scolded Lin Yuquan for being brainless.

"An inexperienced young man wrote, acted and directed a large-scale zuò movie with an investment of 40 million, which is like a fantasy, and naturally no one wants to believe him. However, "

The narration ends abruptly. The video first showed a report after the film's premiere. The title is clearly visible as "the most sincere kung fu masterpiece of the year, twelve reasons to have to watch." "The four fight scenes are shocking, and the action star Lin Yuquan rises in the sky." "Director or actor, the biggest surprise in the Chinese film industry, self-directed, self-acting and self-written, Lin Yuquan is comparable to Zhou Xingchi's all-round."

Then there was a news report of the interview, and the sound of the news in the video was directly released.

"The word-of-mouth won 40.15 million box office in a single week, becoming the runner-up in the weekly box office in the mainland in one fell swoop."

"Ignite the passion of North American movie fans. With a single-week box office of $35.5 million, it topped the North American box office. ”

The hostess pointed at a blonde girl and asked, "What movie are you watching", after the blonde girl replied "Huo Yuanjia", the picture quickly switched, and more than a dozen Americans of all kinds answered to the camera "Huo Yuanjia", "Huo Yuanjia", "Huo Yuanjia"

"At the moment in the United States, it is becoming a phenomenon, and through the guò interview, we found that almost all American audiences appreciate the kung fu in the film."

"The mainland box office has been two consecutive runners-up, and this week it will collect another 47.83 million, pointing to the 100 million yuan box office club."

"Reload. Airborne to the North American box office top, but the magic continues. North America took second place. ”

"Accumulated $110 million in two weeks, a global box office record."

"The global box office is 161 million US dollars, making it the second only film at the box office of Chinese films, and the North American box office of 118 million US dollars surpasses Zhang Yi and becomes the best mainland director in the North American market at present."

"At the 79th Oscars a few days ago, he won the Best Costume Design Award and the Best Visual Effects Award in one fell swoop, and he became the youngest award winner in the history of the Oscars, he is Lin Yuquan."

Except for Lin Yuquan, everyone, including Cheng Luyu, was immersed in Lin Yuquan's achievements over the years, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, three movies in three years, 135 million yuan mainland box office, The global box office is 161 million US dollars, the mainland box office is 187 million yuan, the global box office is 413 million US dollars, the mainland box office is 323 million yuan, and the global box office is 461 million US dollars.

In two years, there are 4 Oscars, two Best Costume Design Awards, one Best Foreign Language Film, and one Best Effect Visual, although this achievement is inferior to last year's Li Yu, but it is the best among all directors.

What's even more amazing is that Lin Yuquan is only 23 years old now, this is just his first three years in the entertainment industry, for directors, 23 years old is too young and too young, I don't know how many directors have really made movies since they were 30 years old, and no one can predict what kind of heights he can reach in the future.

Although Lin Yuquan himself knows these very well, watching the video, he is still uncontrollable excited, proud of what he has done in the past few years.

"Director Lin, three films in three years, won the box office championship of Chinese films for three consecutive years, and won four Oscars in two years, now you are standing at the peak of Chinese films, we all know that you have acquired a Hollywood film company and are about to enter Hollywood, so what is your outlook for the next Hollywood journey?" Cheng Luyu asked with a smile.

"Actually, I didn't think about it that much, I just felt that I couldn't make a breakthrough in the Chinese film industry for the time being, so I wanted to go to Hollywood to break through, in general, it was the same as making movies in China, making the movies I wanted to make, making movies that everyone liked, if I had to say anything about prospects." Lin Yuquan paused, and a hint of dreamy color flashed in his eyes: "I wonder what the limit height I can reach in Hollywood will be?"
