Chapter 421: Reconciliation
Even Al Pacino, who once starred in "The Godfather", heard that Dustin. After Hoffman's words, he couldn't help but change his complexion.
However, in order to protect Yan Qingyu behind him, Pacino still gritted his teeth and said: "Dustin, do you also think that I am not worthy of competing with you for the throne of the Oscar?" ”
Dusty. Hoffman shook his head slightly and said, "No, Al, you are qualified to compete, and if you compete by legitimate means, I will congratulate you if you win." I think I still have this amount of belly, but ......"
Al Pacino's face changed again, and he was about to say something, when Yan Qingyu patted him on the shoulder, but he said to Dustin. Hoffman said: "Behind every Oscar, there is an exchange of various interests. Let's call it a PR ploy, Mr. Hoffman, you are also my favorite actor, I heard that you are an honest person, so please sue me, have you done some PR behind your back? ”
This time, it's Dustin. Hoffman's face changed, and he certainly wouldn't say that they hadn't done PR.
As Yan Qingyu said, behind the Oscars every year, there are all kinds of interest exchanges.
Although it is said that the winners will only be announced on Oscar night, in fact, almost everyone who should know the news before that.
And because of this, Barry. Bryson, they are so angry, because they have already learned from the mouths of their publicists that this year's Oscar basically belongs to Pacino.
And this is simply unforgivable for the crew of "Rain Man", which already regards Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor as if they were in their arms.
"What do you mean, young man?"
Barry. Levinson looked at Yan Qingyu with a gloomy face.
Yan Qingyu smiled but had a cold and ruthless look in her eyes, and said, "If I win the award for Best Director or Best Picture, then you are forgiven for complaining about anger, but, Mr. Levinson, we may only get Best Actor." You're also an old filmmaker. Could you please comment with a professional eye, how is Al's performance worse than Mr. Hoffman's? ”
Barry. Levinson was stunned when he heard this, he was still a proud person after all, and he would not judge Al Pacino's performance as inferior to Dustin without principle. Hoffman.
In fact, he also praised Pacino's performance in "Smelling the Fragrance".
It's just that, in his opinion, Dustin. Hoffman deserves an Oscar for best actor because "Rain Man" is much more successful than "Smelling Fragrance", at least at the North American box office, "Rain Man" threw out "Smell Fragrance" eight streets.
Because of this. When he was a big man in the public relations school, people who had a good relationship with him told him that the position of actor basically belonged to Pacino, and he would be extremely angry and only call shady.
However, listening to Yan Qingyu say this at this moment, it seems that there is some truth in Al Pacino's performance. Not bad indeed.
"Hey, Mr. Pacino's performance is naturally not bad, is Dustin's performance bad?"
Tom. Cruise interjected, looking disgruntled.
looked at Yan Qingyu's extremely handsome face. as well as facing Barry. Levinson and Dustin. Hoffman was all about the nobility of the time, Tom. Cruise's heart was sour with jealousy.
Twenty-seven-year-old Tom. Cruise also became famous at a young age, he entered the entertainment industry at the age of nineteen, and at the age of twenty-one, he was nominated for the 41st Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Comedy/Music category for "Good Boy is Crazy".
At the age of twenty-four, he became popular by starring in "Top Gun". Become a popular fried chicken in Hollywood.
It can be said that with his excellent appearance and extraordinary luck, Tom. Cruise's star path has a bright future.
It has always been the envy, jealousy and hatred of others for him. However, after knowing Yan Qingyu's existence, especially after he learned about Yan Qingyu's past in detail, he became madly jealous of Yan Qingyu.
How could God be so partial to someone who doesn't believe in Him?
A young man who is five years younger than him, yet has achieved so much.
A staggering net worth, in Hong Kong, a city known as the Hollywood of the East, is almost a godfather, no, almost a pope-like supremacy.
He owns several television stations, cinema chains throughout Asia, newspapers and record companies, and is a true media tycoon.
If Yan Qingyu is sixty-two years old this year, then Tom. Instead of being jealous, Cruise will befriend him.
However, Yan Qingyu is only twenty-two years old this year, five years younger than him.
What made him jealous the most was that Yan Qingyu was even more beautiful than him, a recognized beautiful soup.
People are more than people, and it can really make people crazy.
Just one sentence of "why" made Liangtang suffer in his heart.
He thought to himself that with his energy, I am afraid it would be difficult to do anything to Yan Qingyu, a predator hiding underwater, but Barry. Levinson and Dustin. Hoffman is different.
If Yan Qingyu doesn't enter Hollywood and only stays in Hong Kong, then no one can do anything about him.
But since he has entered Hollywood, it is difficult for his power in the East to play any role in Hollywood.
And whether it's Barry. Levinson is still Dustin. Hoffman, in Hollywood, is a real big shot.
The connections and relationships between the two of them are very terrifying, if the two of them want to deal with Yan Qingyu, then Yan Qingyu will definitely not feel good, and whether they can continue to stay in Hollywood is a question.
What kind of person is Yan Qingyu, who is clear-minded, to Tom. Cruise's state of mind was almost caught in the blink of an eye, he smiled faintly, didn't even mean to answer him, just looked at Dustin with calm and waveless eyes. Hoffman and Barry. The Levinson duo.
Both of them are smart people, and they can understand what he means without Yan Qingyu answering.
Since the performance level of Dustin and Pacino is between the best, then the rest depends on the energy behind the two sides.
Whoever has the most energy is more likely to win.
Moreover, this kind of energy competition is not foul and contrary to principles.
As Yan Qingyu said, he did not run the position of best director and best film.
Barry. Levinson and Dustin. Hoffman and the two looked at each other, with a little smile and a little regret in their eyes.
Barry. Levinson was the first to stretch out his hand, and Yan Qingyu was not pretentious, and also reached out to shake him.
Barry. Levinson said, "It's that I'm thinking a little wrong, you're right. Al is also an actor I really like, and whoever he and Dustin win the Best Actor trophy is well deserved. I just didn't expect your energy to be so great. Haha, Yan, I'm afraid I'm going to have a headache when I compete with you in the future. ”
Yan Qingyu smiled when she heard this, and said, "Don't worry, I will only fight for the honor I deserve." ”
Dusty. Hoffman also reached out and shook Yan Qingyu's hand, and said, "Jealousy is the original sin, and I am guilty of this sin. You're right. Al's table xiàn is outstanding. Your directing skills are also very good, and the tango in "Smelling the Fragrance" is really fascinating. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. ”
Yan Qingyu smiled: "That will be my honor." ”
Yan Qingyu's principle of knowing people is that he usually respects people who have made outstanding achievements in a certain field.
Especially those who have been at the top of the industry for a long time, which shows that such people are not just short-lived by virtue of talent, they also put in great effort and perseverance.
Such a person is also worthy of respect.
Yan Qingyu is not afraid of Barry. Levinson and Dustin. Hoffman's power in Hollywood is just one more friend. It's better than one more enemy.
Moreover, both of them are smart people.
As long as they are provided with a reasonable step, then they will not make enemies for themselves, especially Yan Qingyu. Someone who clearly possesses great energy and potential.
As for Tom. Cruise, Yan Qingyu doesn't matter.
It's a big deal, but it's just a popular student.
The fame and popularity of the popular actor looks even better than that of the president of the United States. In fact, it is a bubble that is even weaker than the stock market.
Especially idols with more celebrity identities than actors, it seems that they have a universal response, and they are indispensable. Actually, you don't need to worry too much about it.
The real powerful people only need to do something to reduce their appearance rate, then the fame of these idols will quickly melt away like ice and snow under the scorching sun.
Yan Qingyu naturally wouldn't care about anything with such a character and lose his identity.
El Pacino and Barry again. Levinson and Dustin. After Hoffman smiled and chatted a few words, the group sat up straight again and watched the awards on the stage.
Leslie Cheung looked at Yan Qingyu while secretly laughing and said, "Hey, Xiao Yu, you're too domineering, aren't you?" Teach the best director and actor to be a person! This is Hollywood in Los Angeles, not Hong Kong. Be careful that people join hands to drive you out. ”
has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and Leslie Cheung is not an idiot, so he naturally understands the twists and turns.
In the eighties, Barry. Levinson and Dustin. Hoffman is definitely a big figure in the film industry and has a wide range of influence.
If they really want to ban a rookie director, it really won't be too difficult.
Of course, since Leslie Cheung said it with a smile, what he said was naturally a joke.
Yan Qingyu is a rookie director, but she is not just a rookie director.
Hearing Leslie Cheung's ridicule, Yan Qingyu snorted and said, "I think it's still a little difficult to ban me, but it's almost the same to ban you, the nominated actor who runs with the big slipper." ”
Leslie Cheung's face suddenly froze when he heard this, Yan Qingyu was right, it was not a ban, but a companion to the actor.
With the role of Charlie in "Smelling the Fragrance", he was actually nominated for one of the candidates for Best Actor this time.
Of course, anyone knows that this could only be a nomination.
However, both the audience and film critics praised Leslie Cheung's performance in "Smelling Fragrance", and paid a lot of attention to his handsomeness.
If Leslie Cheung develops in Hollywood next, it may be difficult to get the leading role, because it is difficult for Americans to accept a foreign country, especially a protagonist who is not white.
But getting some important supporting roles is still very promising.
Leslie Cheung had a good attitude, and when he heard Yan Qingyu's words, he not only didn't get angry, but also smiled happily: "Although I am nominated for an escort, Judy is eight out of ten. Nine can get the queen, hehe, my wife is better than you! (To be continued......)
