“……”

“……”

Judging from the results alone, the audience still had some surprises about the award presentation of the 74th Academy Awards.

In the past, although the Academy Awards was one of the most authoritative film awards in the world, it was actually the same as the Golden Rooster Awards, and it was inevitable to share the cake.

But this year, the academy actually awarded the two most important awards of Best Film and Best Director to "A Beautiful Mind", which is indeed quite surprising.

It's like Berlin awarded the Golden Bear for Best Picture and Best Director to "The Undertaker", which is nothing short of a miracle.

There are professional film critics, after the awards ceremony, who spoke on the Internet: "The Oscar is no longer the Oscar, maybe the audience is growing, maybe the movie is falling, maybe there are other reasons, people who know the rules of the game will decide their own choice......"

Some people also commented dissatisfiedly: "It's such a coincidence that two black people won the Best Actor and Actress awards..."

But none of this has anything to do with Wu Yuan.

Fox Searchlight is quite powerful, and it really gave the Best Original Screenplay Award to PR.

Although Wu Yuan knew that "Juno" would win this award on the original trajectory, this was not the same year after all, and the opponents faced were different, and the form and situation were also different.

In the end, "Juno" still won this award, which also made Wu Yuan feel a little lucky.

It's just that this movie was produced and released by Fox Searchlight after all, and the mainstream media here in Hollywood, celebrating the report of "Juno" winning the award, are mainly praising Fox Searchlight and praising Fox Searchlight's insight......

Don't ask, it's because Fox Searchlight spent a lot of money to buy off reporters, and Wu Yuan didn't spend a dime.

So this Oscar award, at least in North America, most of it goes to Fox Searchlight.

But in China, the news that Wu Yuan won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay spread all over the streets and alleys of the country overnight.

Just after the Spring Festival holiday, Wu Yuan once again occupied the front page headlines of newspapers of all sizes across the country.

Wu Yuan, who could only be regarded as a little famous in China, has really become a man who doesn't know anyone in the world this time, from the uncles and aunts in his fifties and sixties, to the teenagers, they all know that Huaxia has a very awesome director and has won many awards abroad...

Wu Yuan held a photo of the little golden man in his hand, and once again slaughtered the domestic newspapers.

If there is a Weibo in this era, he will definitely occupy the first place on the Weibo popularity list for a week!

Unfortunately, Internet entertainment in this era is still relatively poor, and people mainly get information through television and newspapers.

But thanks to the news on TV and newspapers about Wu Yuan's Oscar award, "The Undertaker", which was released in China for half a month, also ushered in a wave of movie-watching craze again!

When Wu Yuan was still in the United States, "The Undertaker" was officially released in China.

With the title of Berlin's best director's work, "The Undertaker" received a box office of 7.5 million in the first week of its release.

In the literary film market, this achievement is already very eye-catching.

Director Yimou brought "Happy Times" to Berlin for screening, and the total box office in the mainland is less than 7 million, which is still a movie directed by Yimou.

That is, the news of the Berlin International Film Festival attracted enough attention and curiosity, and "The Undertaker" achieved a box office of 7.5 million in the first week.

Of course, the film itself is indeed better than "Happy Times", and director Yimou's first commercial attempt was quite a failure.

Moreover, the general movie is released, and it must be the highest box office in the first week, and then the box office data begins to decline, and by the fourth week, there is basically no box office to be released.

But "The Undertaker" is different!

After the movie won 7.5 million box office in the first week, the audience who watched the movie praised the movie for being good at home, friends and on the Internet!

"Although this is a literary film, the director did not make any tricks or stream-of-consciousness plots in the movie, but told a simple but touching story!"

After watching this movie, I realized that there has always been a profession and group called "mortuary", silently doing the finishing work for people on the last leg of their lives. ”

"The son who wants to be a woman was accepted by his father, and the grandmother who wanted to wear stockings wore it at the funeral, and the woman who had been a bad wife all her life let her husband know her beauty after she died, and when she thought that all this was a dream come true after death, she suddenly felt that she wanted to cry even more!"

"The most touching thing about this movie is not about death and parting, but about reconciling, reconciling with the past, reconciling with family, and reconciling with oneself."

"It was very humorous in the early stage, very warm in the later stage, and I cried in the cinema."

Maybe 20 years later, Chinese audiences have already seen too much of this kind of movie that is very good to cry, and they already have immunity, and they will even resist a little.

But at the moment in 2002, the last movie that made Chinese audiences cry to tears was called "Titanic", and the mainland box office of this movie was as high as 360 million yuan.

The current Chinese audience is really a touching movie with tears!

And the story that makes people cry in "The Undertaker" is not only love, but also family affection, father-son love, mother-daughter love, healing and heartwarming!

With the word-of-mouth fermentation in the first week, the second week of the release of "The Undertaker" ushered in a box office explosion, obtaining a box office of 18 million, more than double the first week!

And in the third week, the news that Wu Yuan won the Best Original Screenplay Award at the Academy Awards spread back to China.

The movie "Juno" can't be seen by domestic audiences!

If the domestic audience wants to understand Wu Yuan, why he can win the best screenplay, and why he can make a movie with a box office of hundreds of millions of dollars abroad, then they can only go into the cinema to watch "The Undertaker"!

All of this will be answered in "The Undertaker"!

So, when Wu Yuan returned to China by plane and stepped on the ground in the capital again, the mainland box office of "The Undertaker" had already broken 40 million yuan!

This box office result is 8 million short of breaking the box office record of mainland literary films held by "Farewell My Concubine" for 10 years!

And the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies is still exploding, and the box office can increase by two or three million every day!

It is almost certain to say that this record, which has been held for ten years, will definitely be broken by "The Undertaker"!

Han Dong, who came to pick up Wu Yuan, said excitedly after receiving Wu Yuan: "Director Wu, you are really the most limelight director in China now, Director Kaige has asked me to bring you a sentence and praise you for being amazing!" ”

""Farewell My Concubine" has held the record for so many years, and someone can finally break it!"

"Where." Wu Yuan pursed his lips reservedly: "It's still incomparable with Director Kaige." ”

"Back then, a movie ticket for "Farewell My Concubine" was only 4 yuan, and the mainland box office was 48 million, which is equivalent to mobilizing 12 million people to go into the cinema to watch this movie!"

"The price of "The Undertaker" is now 15 yuan a piece, which is nearly four times the price of "Farewell My Concubine" at that time."

Although in terms of box office results, "The Undertaker" will definitely surpass "Farewell My Concubine", but in terms of the number of viewers, the gap between the two is still very large.

Wu Yuan is clear in his heart, but he doesn't think that the box office of "The Undertaker" surpasses "Farewell My Concubine", which means that "The Undertaker" is more powerful than "Farewell My Concubine" and has more artistic value.

Although the few movies that Director Kaige will make in the future are not good, "Farewell My Concubine", as one of the top 100 movies in global film history, is still worthy of Director Kaige's life.

Han Dong looked at Wu Yuan with a smile, his eyes full of appreciation and recognition.

This young man is not carried away by the fiery results, but still maintains his consistent humble and calm character, which is really a jade treasure from God to the Chinese film industry!

"That's right." Han Dong remembered one thing and said with a smile: "Zhang Guorong's "Stealing Hearts" is on, you don't want to help the producer? ”
