Chapter 715: Sao Operation, Trophy at the Beginning! (Ask for subscription)
"Really?"
Although she received the good news from Dave at the first time, Gu Miao still wondered if she had heard it wrong.
Odds of 1:32 on the periphery!
This is comparable to the national football team winning the Hercules Cup, and the fantasy scene of Kun Kun uprooting the weeping willows really happened?
In order to verify the accuracy of the news, he also went to the Internet to find the replay video of this year's Academy Awards.
Then, he was stunned.
This turned out to be true, and when the award presenter, the well-known Hollywood comedian Kevin, read out the name of the winning work "Puss Gets the Boot" on stage, he saw Dave Smith walk onto the stage with a "breezy face".
"Thank you!"
"Thank you to the Academy, thank you to my team, thank you to my boss! Let me think, how many times has this been to the Dolby Theatre? ”
The audience burst into laughter.
For Dave, the Oscar "nail household", seven times...... Oh no! is now an old acquaintance who has won eight awards, and the celebrities of Haolaiwu are still very familiar.
Dave's acceptance speech was very funny, and in front of everyone, he ridiculed his boss, that is, Gu Miao, who was far away in Jiangchuan for the New Year.
"When I told the boss, we might be going to win a prize! He told me that I wouldn't do this kind of stupid thing to sit in the audience and watch others win awards! Then ......"
The guests in the audience all smiled, Dave lowered his head and kissed the trophy, and then smiled: "I think my boss should be hiding in the toilet and crying at this moment." ”
"It was a fantastic night, and for my boss, no less ......"
I'm crying for your uncle!
After watching the video playback, Gu Miao's first feeling was confused, and the second feeling was anger, and she couldn't wait to pick up a knife to chop Dave's house.
His mouth is really cheap!
The acceptance speech won't say, then thank CTV and thank MTV and it's over, and it's okay to tear him out and whip the corpse if you have nothing to do, is that okay?
That's not good!
Gu Miao, who was embarrassed and angry, didn't care that it was late at night in North America, and decisively dialed Dave's phone and asked him for details.
How did you win the award?
This is one thing he can't understand, after all, before this, no one thought that the first episode of "Cat and Mouse" would win the award, and Wanbao didn't even prepare the promotional materials after the "award".
But Dave told him.
"Cat and Mouse" won the award for two main reasons.
The first reason is that this year is the "Oscar year", and the works nominated this time are generally not very competitive, and this award can be given to anyone.
The second reason is Dave's face, as an Oscar nail household, he is also a life member of the Academy of Film and Arts, and many people know him.
"Why?"
"No Why......"
Dave told Gu Miao that when he voted, everyone saw that his name was more familiar, so they gave him the vote.
That's it, it's simple.
"I mean, no one is operating? Isn't it common to have shady scenes or something? Gu Miao wondered.
"This year is a small year for the Oscars, and with the overwhelming "Birdman", the blockbuster awards have been booked early, and the remaining small awards are naturally unattended."
In simple terms.
The jackpots were all booked away, and there was no point in operating. As for spending money on some small awards that have no influence and topicality, it is even more meaningless.
Of course, this is not to say that it is absolutely impartial.
It's just that in previous years, it was a "cake-sharing" model, and the college would divide the cake in turn according to the situation of the blockbuster awards.
For example, A and B compete for awards, and they are also operating to pull relationships and engage in shady, and as a result, A loses, so the college has to take a few "insignificant" small awards to comfort the frustrated A.
As a result, this year's cake was booked, no one grabbed it, and there were no disappointed people, so the remaining small prizes were naturally given to whoever was pleasing to the eye.
After figuring out the logical relationship.
Gu Miao immediately understood why Dave was able to win the award just by relying on "familiarity".
Of course, this may also have something to do with the lack of presence and competitiveness of the "Best Animated Short Film".
But then again.
Regardless of how it won the award, the result is here, and the animation "Cat and Mouse" produced by Wanbao won the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film.
】
That's a great thing!
It is necessary to vigorously promote a wave, and it is best to use this wave of traffic attracted by the Oscars to make "Cat and Mouse" completely enter people's field of vision.
"The second episode will be available soon."
Dave said that in order to catch the popularity of the Oscars, he and his team will do their best to complete the production of the second episode in the near future.
"So be it......"
Gu Miao thought of a great idea, and explained with a smile: "At the beginning of "Cat and Mouse", I think we can add an Oscar statuette, what do you think?" ”
“oh! That's great! ”
Dave agreed: "Show our trophies in the opening credits?" I agree, it's a great offer. ”
The title plus the trophy, this is still Gu Miao's inspiration from the original "Cat and Mouse".
Think back to the beginning.
When he was watching the animation of "Cat and Mouse", he suddenly found that there was an Oscar statuette at the beginning of several episodes.
At that time, he was very curious, what does the little golden man mean at the beginning of the film? It wasn't until he went to check it out that he found out......
Oh! It turns out that "Cat and Mouse" is so good and has won the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film so many times?
Gu Miao had already thought about it.
The Wanbao version of "Cat and Mouse" does the same, showing off the trophy fiercely at the beginning of the film, not only to show off, but also to show off others to convince them.
Put a trophy first.
If "Cat and Mouse" wins the second statuette, then add one at the beginning of the credit, and one will be added if you win one prize anyway.
What happens in the end?
If "Cat and Mouse" can finally take six or seven little golden figures, they will be displayed directly in a column at the beginning of the film for the audience to see.
Hold the grass!
The effect was simply stunning.
Who can have this confidence in animation, and the opening directly shows you a whole row of Oscar trophies? Six or seven little golden people are watching you, who dares to be unconvinced?
"It's hard to ......"
The boss's crankiness made Dave speechless, and he said that it was already good to win an Oscar.
Still want to take six or seven?
Do you think this is a wholesale business?
"If you don't try it, how do you know you can't? When you won your first Oscar, did you ever think you'd win it eight times? Gu Miao asked.
"Nope!"
"That's it! Since you can win the little gold man eight times, why can't "Cat and Mouse"? ”
Gu Miao felt that Dave was too engaged.
He took seven little gold figures by himself, and counting this time it was the eighth, but he said that "Cat and Mouse" is difficult to win many awards?
Waterfa?
How hard is it? Is it difficult for him to win seven Oscars? He must have said this in Versailles, right?
