Hollywood movies simply refer to the films produced by the six major studios. Except for these few big companies.

There are many large and small studios in the United States, and their films are American films, but their films are not Hollywood movies.

There's room for maneuvering.

Although the Oscars allow some excellent foreign films to participate in the selection, they can only participate in the selection of the "Best Foreign Language Film" award, and cannot participate in the selection of other awards.

Because the Oscars stipulate that if all the funds for a film are invested by foreign institutions, and Americans do not invest a penny, then the film can only participate in the "Best Foreign Language Film" award.

And if a foreign film has money invested by Americans, then the film can be considered an "American movie".

As for how much money the Americans have invested, it doesn't matter, there is no bottom line, as long as the Americans invest, they can participate in the selection of all the awards of the "Oscars".

Other international film awards or film festivals, such as Cannes and Venice or Berlin, including the Shanghai Film Festival in Yanguo, do not have this rule at all, and all films, regardless of country, can participate in the selection of any award without restrictions.

And the reason why Zheng Xu wants to put the entry point on the Oscar is because of his popularity.

The other is that Oscar pays a lot of attention to political correctness, which sometimes seems to be an unspoken rule of fucking, but it is nothing to Zheng Xu.

Just pick a movie that is politically correct and in line with the Oscar judges' wishes, and change it yourself a little, isn't it?

This is a propositional essay, with a question, he can find the answer by himself.

What is Oscar's political correctness?

The basic universal ideas of Christianity, such as anti-race, justice, freedom, anti-war, friendship, kinship, etc.

Of course, there are also some sensitive subjects to avoid, which is inconvenient to say, but there is one of them that is very interesting.

It is to show the theme of backwardness and ignorance.

This kind of theme is also not liked by the Oscar judges.

But there are some directors in Yanguo who like to shoot this kind of theme.

And he is filming his own country, Zheng Xu hates this type of director the most.

As the old saying goes, family ugliness should not be publicized.

What's more, the truth is that we're just a time behind.

We have been lagging behind for so long, the development time is short, and there are some areas that are partially backward, and this is only temporary.

But it's a bit inappropriate for you to take these events or scenes, then process them and shoot them, and show them to others, so as to win awards.

This is pure younger brother's behavior, and the face is gone.

If you have the ability, you can shoot foreign ones, since you are so good at discovering, then you can find out the backwardness of foreign countries and then shoot them.

..................

Make up your mind to choose the Oscars, and this time the goal of the Oscar nomination is victory.

Don't underestimate an Oscar nomination, for most of the films that are nominated for the Oscars, you have already won more than 90% of the nominations, and the rest depends on whose PR is among the several nominations.

As a first-time filmmaker, Zheng Xu is still a little pressed in his heart, as long as he can be nominated, no matter which one he is, he will surpass Li Minhong's grandson 100%.

Relying on an Oscar nomination, it can be said that the identities between the two were immediately reversed, and it will not be an order of magnitude from now on.

Although by the time Zheng Xu finishes filming the movie, it is still unknown whether Li Minhong will be able to mix in the director's circle, but what if a second fool pops up again to talk about Zheng Xu's honor?

Zheng Xu closed his eyes and slowly selected the film from the player.

First of all, if it is a film with an American background, secondly, the production cost can be as low as possible.

Then the era is best to be modern, the service is simple, the scene is as few as possible, and the simplicity is the mainstay. The production cycle of the film should be as short as possible.

It's better to cram in a few more of your own actors, isn't it anti-racial? Stuffing all the colors into it must be politically correct.

Based on these conditions, there are not many films to choose from.

Zheng Xu locked in an old film "Hot Afternoon".

After refilling the teacup, Zheng Xu changed his posture and leaned on the sofa and began to "study" this "Hot Afternoon".

The drama "Hot Afternoon" is very absurd, pay attention to this word, absurd.

The story is set in New York in 1972, on a sunny morning.

The main character, Sonny, takes two friends and drives to a bank.

Their eyes are empty, their expressions are frozen, they seem to be thoughtless walking corpses, no one knows what they are going to do, only Zheng Xu knows that they are going to rob a bank next.

Robbing a bank should be a high-tech, high-risk job.

However, Sonny and his friend Thaler in the movie don't think so.

This is an extremely simple thing, open the door, get out of the car, enter the door, pull out the gun, grab the money, all in one go, go smoothly, get in the car, leave, and it will be over in 5 minutes.

However, due to erroneous information, the deposit in the bank vault was transferred on this day, and only 1,100 dollars remained.

So, the naïve two were surrounded by police all over the street for 24 hours.

As the movie name suggests, it was a hot afternoon, and everyone was in a mess.

After learning that there was a robbery, the police, reporters, and the crowd all appeared on the scene, each doing their duty, but they did not care about the robbery itself.

Even when the sick hostage was released, a group of unknown people pressed him on the car cover as a prisoner.

Everything is so absurd, yet so orderly.

The protagonist in the middle, Sonny, as a veteran, can't find a job to make ends meet, and is reduced to taking risks to rob a bank.

Combined with the era of the story, the United States has just withdrawn from the battlefield in Vietnam.

Doesn't this make the anti-war implicit arrangement and politically correct.

And Zheng Xu is ready to change it, directly replace Sonny, the white protagonist, and stuff Lei Jiayin into it, whether it is a little silly or a little naïve temperament, Lei Jiayin is more in line.

In addition, changing to a veteran of a minority of colored ethnic groups who fought for the country actually fell into this situation after being discharged from the army, is it even more dramatic conflict?

Of course, Lei Jiayin's racial setting is definitely not from Yanguo, and Zheng Xu is ready to arrange him to be Korean.

Come to think of it, no matter what the purpose is, robbing a bank is not a good thing, and it will disgust the audience to a certain extent.

When the time came, the protagonist played by Lei Jiayin was arranged, and in a hurry, he popped out a few words in his native language, "Asi, Asi." ”

Isn't that the effect coming? Even if you use your own actors, you don't use them completely, and you can put some eye medicine on the little stick, who wouldn't smear the villain~

Zheng Xu held his chin, since they all used Lei Jiayin, Lei Mu made up his goods, and he could also be arranged as Lei Jiayin's hair Xiao Sailer.

Since they have robbed the bank, the accomplices must be trustworthy.

It makes sense to arrange a fellow countryman to add a Korean with a small status, right?
