Chapter 804: Best Foreign Language Film

There is no doubt that the most watched film at this year's Oscars should be "The Aviator", which has received a total of eleven nominations, and "Myth", which has eight nominations, ranking second, but the weight of the nominations is not as good as "Million Dollar Baby", which has seven nominations.

Even Wu Tian was very interested in these nominations for "Myth", and he had the heart to simply send assistant director Lao Zhang to accept the award on behalf of the crew, but in the end, he couldn't withstand the repeated persecution of Qi Bing, Chen Lili and Ouyang Fei, so he had to come obediently.

Poor Wu Tian is a little weak about this trip to the United States, after all, Chang Le is very aware of the existence of Qi Bing and Chen Lili, and even Chang Le and Chen Lili are still best friends from childhood to adulthood, when Wu Tian was a child, the three of them often learned English and Chinese through transatlantic telephones - and this trip to the United States, Chang Le also had to follow to visit Sister Lili, can Wu Tian not be weak-hearted?

was worried all the way, but fortunately, after rushing to the United States, the little girl couldn't withstand the jet lag problem after all, and finally let Wu Tian take the time to apologize to Qi Bing and Chen Lili respectively and show their hearts, although the two girls were full of resentment, but they also said that they could accept this fact, of course, the premise is that Chang Le also accepts their existence.

Of course, this is not a problem, according to the gentleman's agreement between Wu Tian and Chang Le, she will not care about her former girlfriends, and Wu Tian is allowed to continue dating, but no new "enemies" are allowed.

However, due to the appearance of Chang Le, Wu Tian has another big problem, that is, who should he find to accompany him on the red carpet of the Oscars?

Last year, it was Qi Bing, the boss of Zhongtian Film and Television, who came forward in person, but this year, Mrs. Zhengpai came, so she couldn't let him stay at home, right? But if you accompany Chang Le. How could Qi Bing not be lost? Poor Wu Tian pondered for a while. Final decision. Just let all the crew set off together and walk the red carpet collectively!

So, on the evening of the 27th, on the red carpet in front of the Kodak Theater, a group of Chinese with yellow faces appeared, led by Qi Bing, Wu Tian and his wife, plus the male and female protagonists of "Myth" and the two assistant directors Zhang and Li. and even the editors, soundtrack musicians, cameramen, animators, etc., who were nominated for awards, appeared on the red carpet together, with a strong lineup and quite eye-catching.

As a result, a group of reporters sent from China were full of excitement and couldn't help but think of the special names of domestic newspapers and magazines tomorrow, which should be written about China entering Hollywood and dominating the Oscar red carpet......

You know, it's definitely ever. participated in the Oscars, the largest Chinese lineup. And most importantly, the main nominees this time are still from mainland China!

"You say, will I go to the newspaper with you tomorrow?"

Chang Le whispered to Wu Tian, and there was an irrepressible little excitement in his tone.

"What do you say?" Wu Tian also said with a smile, "May I ask Ms. Chang Le, as the fiancΓ©e of Da Cheng, what do you think of Director Wu winning the best foreign language film?" ”

"I hate it, people don't accept interviews." Chang Le laughed and said, "It's like you can really win the award......

"What are you two whispering?"

Qi Bing, who was on the other side of Wu Tian, couldn't help but interject and said.

"It's nothing, just guess if he can win the prize." Chang Le replied with a smile, but then Wu Tian blocked Qi Bing's sight and rolled his eyes at Wu Tian fiercely.

Wu Tian smiled bitterly, what he was most afraid of was this situation, but fortunately, Chang Le had only ended up at most, and he had never been unrelenting.

"Lele, you shouldn't ask him if he can win the prize, but you should ask, how many awards can he win tonight." Qi Bing said with a smile.

"That's right, Sister Bing'er, how many awards do you think we can get?" Chang Le smiled.

"Of course, I hope that all the nominated awards will be won." Qi Bing smiled, "Of course, even if you can't get them all, at least the best foreign language film shouldn't be able to run." ”

"So confident? Do you have any inside information? Wu Tian said with a smile.

"I don't have inside information, but I do have outside information." Qi Bing said with a smile, "Don't forget, in the past few years, Zhongtian Film and Television has been committed to the spread of Chinese culture, and now the acceptance of Chinese culture by the people of Mi is much higher, and with the strength of "Myth", of course it is not a big problem to win the award......

When Wu Tian heard this, he smiled pleasantly, looking at Qi Bing's gaze, a little more gentle.

It can be said that the one who has the greatest support for Wu Tian's cultural strategy is Qi Bing. As early as a few years ago, when Wu Tian opened up the film and television market in the United States, Wu Tian explained in detail the significance of cultural strategy to Qi Bing, and formulated a perfect long-term development plan, over the years, whether it is MGM movies or CBS TV programs, often insert a little bit of things containing Chinese culture in the film and television content, whether it is Chinese landscapes, or Chinese kung fu martial arts, imitation or Chinese medicine acupuncture, and then there are guzheng erhu, or even just a Chinese greeting and so on, don't look at any insert. The content is very small, and it doesn't seem to have any effect at all, but if it appears more, it will always secretly affect the thinking of the Chinese people, so that they will begin to be interested in Chinese culture to a large extent, and even love it, at least it will dissolve their impression of China all along!

-- Even at the end of the 90s, there were still a large number of Chinese people who thought that the Chinese were still the kind of thieves with pigtails. rights are closely linked. I think that China is still trying to liberate mankind all over the world!

Zhongtian Film and Television took several years. Finally, this serious problem has been successfully solved. Occasionally, insert a little prosperous footage of the capital and pearl of China in the film and television, so that the ordinary people of the United States know that the mysterious country has also developed very modernly, and occasionally insert a little traditional Chinese culture, so that those people in the United States know that the Japanese island culture that they have always admired is actually an imitation of Chinese culture......

Therefore, when Wu Tian's "Myth" was released in the United States, the audience in the United States did not resist because it was a Chinese film. I was not disappointed that this was not a kung fu movie or a martial arts movie, so that they could use an equal mentality to understand the content of the film and accept the feelings that the film wanted to express.

There is no doubt that if the success of "Myth" is inseparable from Wu Tian's planning and production ability, then it is even more inseparable from the basic environment of Chinese culture that Zhongtian Film and Television has quietly developed in the past few years......

"The winner of the best foreign language film was "Mythology" from China......"

With the announcement of the host, there was applause at the scene, and the spotlight hit at the right time.

Wu Tian had a calm smile on his face. shook hands with the crew members one after another, and hugged Qi Bing again. only walked on stage, and said a few words of acceptance speech in a routine manner, nothing more than thanking the crew members for their efforts, thanking family and friends for their support, etc., as for the indispensable words of gratitude to relevant departments at the domestic film festival, he did not mention a word, purely in accordance with the values of the Chinese people, and Shi Shiran walked off the stage with the little golden man in his arms, and did not hesitate to hand the little golden man to the crew companions to pass on their addiction to each other.

"Congratulations, Director Wu Da has won the Little Golden Man again, and now he can be regarded as a real international director......" Qi Bing said with a smile.

"No, I've been an international director for a long time, okay? This time he has become a serious Chinese director. Wu Tian said with a grin.

One sentence caused everyone to laugh.

It's funny to say, Wu Tian, as a Chinese, entered the industry with "Ghost Shadow" and became internationally famous with "District 9", not only won the Oscar for Best Picture, but also won many awards including Best Director in Cannes - although Wu Tian did not accept the award in person. But even if he is so strong, Wu Tian is not favored by the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers in China, not only has the previous "Singing Flying" never been nominated for awards, but even Wu Tian's "No Thieves in the World" and the subsequent "Singing Flying" have not won awards!

And this little golden man for the best foreign language film is enough for Wu Tian to be proud of becoming one of the best directors of discourse films without the affirmation of those domestic awards!

"The best editing was given to Mythology, ......"

Wu Tian had just sat down, and an award was released. But this time, Wu Tian didn't need to go on stage again, and the editor also came to the scene.

Seeing the excited editing on the stage saying the acceptance speech in English that he was not fluent in, Wu Tian, Chang Le, and Qi Bing muttered again offstage.

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************

"Shall we take a gamble? Let's guess a number and see who can guess the number of winners tonight. Qi Bing said with a grin.

"Okay, I guess...... At least four! Chang Le responded immediately.

"What is at least four, if I guess five, then who wins?" Qi Bing said with a smile.

"Then I'll guess four." Chang Le smiled nonchalantly, "But Sister Bing'er, if I guess correctly, what reward is there?" ”

"If you guess correctly, you can ask for it casually, if you guess wrong, he will be mine tonight......" Qi Bing whispered to Chang Le, glancing at Wu Tian.

"Hmph, is he that rare? You're at a loss for this condition! Chang Le chuckled.

"I mean, have you two considered how you feel about your bet?" Wu Tian said with a wry smile.

The two girls giggled, and Qi Bing's eyes rolled and said, "You feel that the call is unfair, you can also participate, and you will also be qualified to put forward conditions at that time......"

Wu Tian looked at Qi Bing, and then at Chang Le, approaching a little excited, and said, "Okay, I guess, I can only take three!" ”

"Huh? When did you lose so much confidence in yourself? Qi Bing wondered, "I guess five......

"Three, four, five!" Wu Tian said with a smile, "It's decided like this, don't regret it!" ”

The two women nodded naturally, as if they had decided that Wu Tian would definitely lose.

This is not to blame them, in fact, they are very familiar with the situation of the last Oscars - and it can be said that the two of them are the most familiar with the one, because of Wu Tian's participation.

However, the last Oscars had too much potential to pit people. A "Lord of the Rings 3" and a "District 9" almost all of the Oscar awards, and the awards nominated by the two films are definitely won unless they overlap with each other!

Coupled with the preconceived impression that "Myth" gave the two, they mistakenly thought that Wu Tian would be able to create a myth again this time, and at least half of the eight nominations would be obtained.

However, Wu Tian was very calm, because he knew very well that this was the country of rice!

is that he filmed "Myth" quite well, even if there is a cultural atmosphere created by Zhongtian Film and Television, it can't resist the local consciousness of the Chinese people at all......
