On February 11, the 75th Academy Awards announced the list of nominees.

Among them, two Chinese films were shortlisted.

Lao Mouzi's "Hero" was shortlisted for this year's Oscars for Best Foreign Language Film.

Lu Ping'an's "Memory Building Block Cabin" was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film.

Two Chinese films were shortlisted for the Oscars.

Although one is a feature film and the other is a short film, the gold content is very different.

But for the current domestic film industry, being shortlisted already has a huge significance, and it is still two, which is even more significant, if it wins another award, no matter which one wins, it will be a historical breakthrough, and it has nothing to do with feature films and short films.

Of course, there is still a relationship, after all, feature films are the most serious awards, but it is better than nothing, which is also the idea of many people at the moment.

On top of this, the directors of the two shortlisted works are the two most popular directors not long ago.

The blockbuster box office frenzy set off by "Source Code" and "Heroes" has not yet dissipated.

At the same time, the secret competition behind the two movies is also a topic of conversation for many people after dinner.

So the topic skyrocketed again.

In the discussion, it is natural that various analysis and speculation began on whether the two directors could successfully win the Oscar, or who won it first.

Among them, there are many who are optimistic about Lao Mouzi.

Because this is not the first time Lao Mouzi has rushed to the Olympics, nor is it the first time he has been shortlisted.

So far, Lao Mouzi has won the Olympics a total of five times, "Red Sorghum", "Ju Dou" (nominated for Best Foreign Language Film), "The Red Lantern Hangs High" (nominated for Best Foreign Language Film), "Qiu Ju Fights a Lawsuit", "Hero" (nominated for Best Foreign Language Film)

Five times in the Olympics, three shortlisted.

According to the current understanding of the Oscars by the Chinese people, one of the reasons why many people are optimistic about Lao Mouzi is:

Oscar has to give a consolation prize, how many times has this been.

In addition to this reason, "Hero" won the highest domestic box office is also a reason, in foreign countries, although the current box office of "Hero" is worse than "Source Code", but "Source Code" did not rush to the Olympics, and although the overall quality of "Hero" is average, it is higher than "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in the eyes of many people, so this time, it may really win the award.

However, compared with Lao Mouzi, there are more people who are optimistic about the safety of the road.

The reason is simple.

The intensity of competition between short films and feature films is not the same.

Lu Ping'an is "the world's top" in the field of short films!

This kind of recognition in the industry is not very clear to the general public.

It wasn't until the Oscar finalists came out that the media began to analyze the winning rate, and then introduced Lu Ping'an's past records.

Only then did many people know that Lu Ping'an still had this hand!

So he failed to rush to the Olympics in a row, and the work was not bad.

One is a strong player in the field who was nominated for the first time in the Olympics, although the works have not been seen, but the past works are very good.

The people are more optimistic about whom, in fact, has slowly divided the number.

Of course, on the whole, there is definitely more support for all.

Whether you can win the award or not, it is about to be marketed as a national honor by a bunch of media, so no matter who you are, it is a good thing to win glory for the country.

After both were shortlisted, Lu Ping'an quickly received various blessings.

Nortel's secretary called and said that the new principal wanted to meet him.

It can be seen that the new principal Zhang Huijun took office in November last year.

Han Sanpin said that "Time and Space Sin" can be released in mid-November, and part of it is also the reason why Principal Zhang spoke out.

Although most of the reasons for this may be because new officials take office and need to do this.

But when people support you, you have to thank you.

In addition, the president will serve at Nortel for more than a decade.

So all in all, it is absolutely necessary to have a good relationship.

When I arrived at Nortel, when I saw Principal Zhang, Principal Zhang's face was full of smiles and majesty.

"Xiaolu-san, let's finally meet."

"Hello Principal Zhang."

Lu Ping'an also remained modest.

The chat atmosphere was good.

Secretary Dong was also blushing, and he didn't feel jealous at all.

After all, if you really want to talk about the relationship, he is closer to Lao Dong.

After a brief meeting, Principal Zhang began to ask about Oscar.

Lu Ping'an also told the truth: "At present, the public relations budget and preparation are very sufficient, and theoretically according to the rules of the game on the Hollywood side, the probability of winning this award is not small, but I can't guarantee the actual result." ”

It's very realistic.

If the average person heard this, they would probably be very surprised.

That's Oscar, why does it smell like copper?

But Principal Zhang was not surprised at all, he had already communicated with Hu Qingquan, even if he didn't communicate, people like him would definitely know a thing or two about the Oscars, even if they weren't Men'erqing.

So he nodded and encouraged: "Just do things in place, and if you need anything, feel free to say it." ”

Lu Ping'an immediately expressed his gratitude.

After the encouragement that seemed to be light and had no practical effect, Principal Zhang, who was then the new official, threw out the rest of the practical benefits to the school's big baby.

Various benefits for students, such as research and scholarships.

These are all things that can be given within the scope of one's responsibilities as a principal.

There are other invisible ones, such as President Zhang's proposal that Lu Ping'an can participate in the Huabiao Award this year.

Lu Ping'an's eyes lit up slightly.

Golden Rooster, Huabiao, and Hundred Flowers, these three awards are also known as the three awards of Chinese mainland films.

Among them, Huabiao is a "government award", and if you want to talk about gold content, none of the three awards will be commented.

But these three awards have been nominated for you, and if the other two are not available, Huabiao can't help but attend.

The meaning is not the same.

Although Lu Ping'an doesn't take these things very seriously, if he really wants to be on it, he will naturally not refuse.

So he expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, principal. ”

When people see it, the benefits are over, and the matter is over.

This was followed by media interviews.

Han Sanpin told Lu Ping'an CCTV to conduct a follow-up interview about Chong Olympics.

It's just to record the material, if you win the award, it will be broadcast, and if you don't win the award, you won't mention it.

And today, if you are shortlisted, you will record the first wave.

After Han Sanpin finished speaking, he added: "Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping will also be together." ”

"Record together?"

"Separate, but inevitably meet."

"I know, don't be too much on the surface, right?"

The top must be stable, at least all kinds of dirt can not be placed on the table.

Lu Ping'an understands.

"That's right."

"I'm fine, I respect Lao Mouzi very much, but I don't know what people do to me."

"They have a good box office, the overseas box office is also popular, and the awards are also in hand, what else can they do to you, if you really want to say that they have an opinion on you, at most it is Zhang Weiping, you don't want to bird him."

"Understood."

When he came to CCTV the next day, Lu Ping'an really met with the two.

As a result, Zhang Weiping took the initiative to walk in front of him when he saw Lu Ping'an, and then greeted him with a smile: "Lu Dao, look up for a long time." ”

There is a knife in the smile.

Lu Ping'an looked calm: "Me too." ”

Zhang Weiping continued: "Lu Dao's movie is very exciting, is there a plan for the next movie? ”

Lu Ping'an raised his eyelids and looked at him, and replied, "It's about to be released." ”

It doesn't matter what he means, I'll tell you the truth, believe it or not.

Zhang Weiping naturally wouldn't believe it.

I just feel that Lu Ping'an is a little childish and unstable.

It looks like it's going to be very exciting in the future.

Then Lao Mouzi came up to greet him: "Road guide." Hello. ”

Lu Ping'an had a smile on his face: "Hello Director Zhang." ”

Regardless, Heroes actually gets more than Source Code.

Lao Mouzi's status is still higher than him, so now the two directors still have to "hello, I'm good".

After a few quick chats, the program began to be recorded.

An hour later, Lu Ping'an finished the CCTV recording and began to be interviewed by other media.

That night, the media revealed the news about the two finalists.

What feelings and so on are said by the two of them.

There is a difference in whether or not you can win an award.

Lao Mouzi: Don't get your hopes up.

This answer is similar to the answer of the rest of the "Heroes" starring.

Lu Ping'an's side is: winning the award is not the goal, the important thing is to try some fresh themes through short films, practice your hands, and accumulate some experience.

Reporter asked: What kind of story is a feature film?

Lu Ping'an: The theme of pandas and kung fu together, but it's not so fast, it may take many years.

After the news was released, everyone expressed their disappointment with "Hero", because they seemed to have decided that they would not win the award, and they were a little pessimistic.

Although Lu Ping'an's attitude towards winning awards is more conservative, his attitude is more pragmatic, and he has a feature film plan.

As a result, everyone's expectations for whether Lu Ping'an can win the award are lower, but they have more expectations for feature films.
