Chapter 585 A 61-Year-Old Girl? Still Connected? So Stupid! The Oscar Nomination Dinner Is in Progress

Chapter 585 A 61-year-old girl? Still connected? So stupid! Oscar nomination dinner is in progress...

The first week box office was 167 million.

"The Grandmaster" created a result that made the Hong Kong film industry very happy!

Chen Fei saw many people shouting on Weibo that the spring of Hong Kong movies has come again.

As expected, the spokesperson was directly criticized.

Now the fighting power of mainland netizens is extremely fierce. Not only are they fighting fiercely with the Hong Kong circle, but they are also fighting back and forth with South Korea. It's so lively!

Of course, although "The Grandmaster" is indeed good, it is much worse than "Wolf Warrior".

Half a month after its release, the box office has exceeded 350 million. The box office potential shown by "Wolf Warrior" has made many people secretly amazed!

Wu Jing and Xie Nan, the young couple, are even more sweet on the Internet from time to time, which is so disgusting.

Every Weibo post they make now reveals a sour smell of love.

Many people in the comment section were shouting: "Do you two treat us as human beings?"

While eating melons, Chen Fei suddenly saw another piece of news about the film industry.

Led by Director Xie Fei, a large number of directors including Jia Zhangke, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Lou Ye, Li Shaohong, Jiang Wen, and Gu Changwei jointly submitted an application to the General Administration.

The content is very simple, that is, they hope to learn from Hollywood and replace the film censorship system with the film rating system.

This group of directors even sent an open letter to the industry, calling on all directors, filmmakers, producers, etc. to join the joint team.

"The censorship system is a legacy of the planned economy. It is a bad habit that restricts market prosperity, stifles ideological exploration, and wastes administrative resources. It should be abolished..."

After seeing this news, Chen Fei was slightly stunned.

On the day when Walton Pictures held its annual meeting, Jia Zhangke called him, hoping that he would respond to the call and protest to the General Administration together.

But at that time, he refused on the grounds that he was too busy recently.

But what no one expected was that this group of people would actually form combat effectiveness in such a short time, and even jointly issued an open letter!

"What a mess!"

He couldn't help but sigh and quietly closed the news website.

It is completely a dream to want to implement a rating system in China.

You know, the rating is to change the responsibility and risk from the producer to the audience. If it is really implemented, then those movies that were strictly prohibited in the past will spring up like mushrooms after rain.

You know, China is very different from Hollywood. Due to the national conditions, everything must be under control.

If it is completely released, it will undoubtedly open a Pandora's box, and it will become very difficult to close it.

This hole must not be opened, otherwise it will not take long for a large number of "LGBT" groups like those in the European and American systems to emerge.

At that time, how can it be controlled?

He silently turned off his mobile phone, letting a bunch of people on Weibo tag him, and even ran to the comment area to speak, but he just didn't respond.

He had been caught in a lot of rain in Hollywood, and he didn't want to bring the poisonous rain back to China.

Let them harm the Americans.

Of course, the melons that should be eaten still need to be eaten.

There is nothing fun in the film industry for the time being, but there are too many fun things in the TV industry.

A group of "Zhenxue" researchers have begun to emerge.

Youku provides a very fertile soil for these people, allowing those bloggers to upload various secondary creations and edited videos on it, which has attracted a lot of attention.

According to internal data statistics, the number of online clicks for "The Legend of Zhen Huan" alone exceeds "Palace Lock Heart Jade" + "Startling by Each Step".

This shows how strong the subsequent heat and response caused by this TV series are.

Of course, in the past few days, the most popular one is "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" which is currently on the air.

A TV series has attracted hundreds of stars to help out, including many powerful superstars and new generation idols from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, etc.

Among them, there are not only veteran actors such as Zhao Wenxuan, Chen Chong, Kou Shixun, Du Zhiguo, but also a large number of hot rising stars such as Yu Shaoqun, Pubajia, Zhang Rui, Ye Zuxin, Zhang Xiaochen, and Sun Yaoqi.

At the same time, South Korean mermaid Miss Zhang Ruixi showed her feminine style, and sexy and popular actress Lan Yan transformed into the revenge princess "Murong Fu" to fight Liu Xiaoqing.

Especially the love scenes, which are the most concerned!

Grandma Liu Xiaoqing, who is already 61 years old, played the roles of shy girls, daughters-in-law and other age dimensions in the play, which is amazing!

Chen Fei's senses are okay. Except that his eyes feel a little dirty and something is rolling in his stomach, there is nothing else.

What made him a little out of the play was that the TV series used a grand war scene at the beginning to catch the audience's attention, describing the battle of the Sui Dynasty to destroy the Chen Dynasty in 589 AD.

But according to history, Li Shimin was not born when the Sui Dynasty conquered the Chen Dynasty in 589 AD. He was born in January 599 AD.

This is very uncomfortable. I really don’t understand whether this is a biographical costume historical drama or a fantasy costume drama?

Of course, this does not affect Chen Fei’s eating melons.

The angry comments from netizens are simply too funny.

"Damn, everything else is fine, but the grandma playing the girl is really distracting."

"Hiss!? It hurts my eyes! I have to go buy some eye drops."

"No! No! No! Yu Shaoqun! Don't be with your grandma... Damn, it's really distracting!"

"I just need to do a gastroscopy. I'll watch this drama. I heard that I can save the trouble of buying medicine."

"Is there any kind-hearted person? Please have pity on me! After watching this drama, I haven't eaten for several days. I vomit as soon as I eat! Can you find a decent girl to play the girl? How can Yu Shaoqun eat it?"

"Don't cut to the close-up! Ugh! I can even see the wrinkles on her face!"

...

Chen Fei originally thought that he might have to eat melons in the TV circle for a few days recently, but he didn't expect that in the afternoon, a paparazzi suddenly broke the photo of Deng and Jiang walking into the same hotel again.

"Deng and Jiang are suspected of being in contact because of "The Four 2". The queen appeared at the airport, intending to take the baby back to her parents' home, with an angry expression..."

The media are watching the excitement and are constantly fanning the flames, just to make the heat up.

As for the three parties involved, they are still silent at present and have not made any response to the "photo gate" incident revealed by the paparazzi.

However, in the evening, some paparazzi actually took photos and videos of Deng appearing at the airport, suspected of chasing the queen.

For a time, the heat was rising.

Many people are speculating whether this "model couple" who have experienced many twists and turns will let go and go their separate ways this time?

Perhaps because they are worried that it will affect "The Four 2" which will be released this year, Guangguang has to come out to put out fires everywhere.

Old Wang is also miserable. It is obviously the actor's own mistake, but he has to take the blame on himself.

Just as Chen Fei was enjoying the melon, Liu Yifei, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said, "Look, that person has left the group."

"Oh?"

Chen Fei took out his mobile phone with interest, opened QQ, and found the Beijing Film Academy 2002 class group.

Sure enough, Jiang's avatar had disappeared.

He sneered and mocked, "Although it takes two to tango, no one can hook up with a married man again and again."

Chen Fei could conclude that the queen would never give up this time!

Even if the two of them would end up in divorce, Jiang, as one of the instigators, would inevitably become the scapegoat!

Liu Yifei nodded silently, feeling that this former best friend had become extremely unfamiliar now.

All kinds of operations and behaviors are simply unscrupulous!

...

Time flew to the end of January.

In Beverly Hills, at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, the 85th Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon was being held.

Academy President Tom Sherak and host Natalie Portman walked onto the podium, facing the large screen in the background, ready to announce this year's nomination list.

Chen Fei and the main creative members of "Interstellar" and "Dallas Buyers Club" sat at a table in the middle of the front. Facing the cameras projected from time to time, his smile was extremely friendly and relaxed, as if he had no pressure.

After months of preparation, now it has finally come to fruition.

He really wants to know whether his "mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind" plan has worked?

Unlike his ease, the other people sitting at the table are a little nervous at the moment.

You know, nominations are always tickets to win awards.

If you want to get an award, you must at least get a nomination first, otherwise all the previous efforts are empty talk.

At this time, "Dallas Buyers Club" is still being screened in North American theaters and will continue to be offline until the end of the Oscars.

The North American box office has now exceeded 200 million US dollars, which is a very good return compared to the production cost of 60 million US dollars.

More importantly, the film has received very good responses overseas. While receiving praise, it has also received extremely high box office.

So far, the overseas box office has reached 150 million US dollars, and the main ticket warehouse is concentrated in Europe.

According to past experience, if this movie can win at the Oscars, then the overseas box office will definitely usher in a surge!

This is the scene that everyone in the crew of "Dallas Buyers Club" wants to see.

Perhaps for the sake of ratings, the Academy has also made great efforts in the seating arrangement.

To Chen Fei's left is the crew of "Life of Pi", and to the right is the crew of "Argo" and "Django Unchained".

When he looked to the left, he happened to look at Li An.

Both of them smiled, even though they were competitors, they maintained a certain demeanor.

When he looked to the right, he met Harvey's eyes, whose face was full of haze.

As a civilized person, he still had a smile on his face.

But Harvey rudely clenched his fists and waved his fists at him while the camera lens was moving away.

This provocation did not make Chen Fei angry, but made his smile even brighter.

He waved to Ning Hao who was sitting next to him, signaling him to bring the red wine bottle on the table to him.

Holding the slightly cold bottle in his hand, Chen Fei immediately became eager to move.

When he turned his attention to Harvey again, the guy had already looked away, pretending to listen carefully.

"Tch? Coward!"

He did not deliberately lower his voice, so the audience sitting at several tables around him heard this sentence.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on Harvey Weinstein, secretly expecting him to respond.

However, Harvey seemed not to hear it at all and ignored Chen Fei's counterattack and provocation.

The bottle from the Venice Film Festival was still fresh in his mind, and he didn't want to get another gash in his head.

More importantly, the legal teams hired by the two are still wrangling and litigating with each other, and they have no idea when it will end.

The sky-high compensation Harvey wants to receive is even further out of reach.

Under such circumstances, he didn't have the guts to provoke Chen Fei, unless he wanted to continue to have a big wound on his head.

On the podium, Tom Sherak and Natalie Portman had already begun to announce the nominations.

"The winners for Best Art Direction include 'Life of Pi,' 'Les Misérables,' 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,' 'Anna Karenina,' and 'Dallas Buyers Club."

"The winners for Best Visual Effects are 'Life of Pi,' 'Prometheus,' 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,' and 'Interstellar.'"

…

"The winners for Best Editing are Dallas Buyers Club, Life of Pi, Bin Laden, Les Miserables, and Anna Karenina."

As multiple nominations were announced one after another, Li Yi and the cast of "Life of Pi" already had smiles on their faces.

But looking at Harvey Weinstein, Ben, Quentin and others, no one has a smile on their face at this moment.

It doesn’t matter if there are no nominations for technical awards. Even the subsequent awards such as editing and adapted screenplay are still not nominated, which can already prove something.

PR was a complete failure!

The Oscar judges have already tacitly expelled "Escape from Tehran" and "Django Unchained" from this year's Oscar selection.

At this moment, Harvey suddenly felt as if there were many people around him quietly sizing him up, and all of their eyes were full of ridicule and contempt.

He really wanted to get up and leave directly, but in order to consider the impact, he finally endured it.

Quentin on the side seemed to be still expecting something, staring directly at the podium, as if waiting for "Django Unchained" to appear.

However, when the nominations for Best Supporting Actor were announced, he even heard about Jared Leto, who played a character who was both male and female, but he did not hear Leonardo's name.

At this moment, not only was he confused, but also Xiao Lizi who was sitting next to him was confused.

After all the hard work, you can't even get a single nomination. How can you make sense of this?

After being stunned for a while, he glanced at Harvey, Quentin and others from the corner of his eye, and he suddenly made a judgment in his heart.

It must be the impact of the email scandal that prevented him from even getting nominated, let alone winning any awards.

At this time, Tom Sherak on the stage happened to announce the nominees for Best Actor.

"Hugh Jackman, Matthew McConaughey, Denzel Washington..."

Five names were announced one after another, and not only was there no big book, but there was also no Jamie Foxx.

By this time, even Quentin couldn't sit still. He felt the same as Harvey, as if he was surrounded by mocking whispers.

On the other side, Li Yin and the "Pi" crew were still secretly looking forward to it.

Next are the nominations for Best Director and Best Picture. These are the two most valuable awards in the Oscars. They must not be unremarkable!

Producer Gil Nate whispered: "We have received several frontline award nominations, whether it is best director or best picture, there will definitely be one for us."

"That's right!"

Li Jian nodded heavily, and the corner of his eye unconsciously glanced at Chen Fei, who was sitting next to him.

The two movies produced by Weinstein Pictures have completely collapsed during the public relations period, so now his biggest competitor is Chen Fei.

It seems quite interesting to think about two Chinese directors competing for the Oscar for Best Director.

However, the development of things is always so unexpected.

"The nominees for Best Director are: FeiChen, Michael Haneke, Bach Zeitlin..."

Five names were announced one after another, and Li Yin was shocked to find that he had not heard his own name.

He looked up at the big screen with some reluctance and looked at the director's name and the corresponding film titles displayed on it one by one. He soon discovered that his and "Pi" names were not on it.

His expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but start thinking wildly.

Could it be that "Life of Pi" has really been pushed completely into the realm of special effects spectacle?

Immediately afterwards, the best film nominations were officially announced, and there was still no "Pi" in it.

By this time, Li Yi and film producer Gil Nate were completely desperate!

Although it was nominated for a series of technical awards, the most important ones, Best Director and Best Picture, failed. This also means that "Pi"'s plan to win awards this year has completely failed.

As for those technical award nominations, even if I win all the statuettes, they are still not as good as the Best Actress Performance Award.

At this time, Natalie Portman, standing on the rostrum, announced her nomination for Best Foreign Language Film.

""The Ghost Blowing the Lantern in the Ancient City", "Love", "Royal Romance", "Chile Says No", "A Raft Across the Ocean".

At the table next to him, Ning Hao and a group of people from the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" crew cheered at the same time, celebrating the film's nomination.

Although there was a smile on Li Xian's face, it was very ugly.

However, there is a group of people with even uglier faces than him!

When many people applauded and congratulated, Harvey could no longer sit still. He stood up and strode out of the hotel like a mad bull.

Behind him, Ben, Quentin and the others quickly followed.

When walking out from the middle of the corridor, everyone except Harvey had their heads lowered, not daring to look at anyone else.

It’s such a shame tonight!
