Chapter 857 Oscar Opening

This is not the first time Cheng Yu'an has seen this kind of thing.

South Korea's YC Studio has been targeted by CJ since 16 years. Although CJ is constrained by domestic studios in South Korea, it still does not give up its willingness to acquire.

The two sides have remained deadlocked until now.

YC Studio has now fully transformed into a content provider, providing drama series, movies and variety shows for Showbox, New, Korean local TV stations, Tudou (Korea), and Netflix (Korea).

YC Studio, despite CJ and Lotte, is still living happily. At the end of last year, it also signed a joint production contract with Showbox and Tudou (Korea), and won 700 billion won (about 5300 million US dollars) from Showbox and Tudou (Korea). With financial support, YC Studio will produce 2 movies and at least 50 episodes of long-form dramas for Showbox and Tudou (Korea) within three years (there are not many Korean dramas, and 50 episodes is almost three volumes).

CJ could only stare blankly, and continued clamoring for the acquisition of YC Studio, but was unable to act.

The U.S. government issued such a notice to scare Cheng Yu'an?

But the remote board reacted strongly to the announcement.

Although Long-distance has no organizational relationship with a major film company, both companies have the bond of Cheng Yu'an. A large part of Yuanyuan's current market value of [-] billion comes from the company's overseas business.

Therefore, a big film company must not be troubled.

In the evening, the remote board of directors held an emergency video conference to discuss how to deal with the matter.

Cheng Yu'an locked himself in the study for a full four hours, and occasionally could hear Cheng Yu'an's fierce quarrel with the directors from outside the door.

The door of the study room opened, and Cheng Yu'an's voice was smoky, and Liu Yifei waited for him outside the door with his daughter: "You are hungry, I ordered something for you to eat."

"There's no rush to eat, pour me a glass of water first."

Liu Yifei made another glass of honey water for him: "How is it?"

"It's okay, it's not that simple to make such an announcement to kill me." Cheng Yu'an was not panicking at all at this time, as long as he stabilized the board of directors, there would be no major troubles.

After drinking the water, Cheng Yu'an picked up her daughter: "Have you eaten?"

The daughter shook her head, patted her belly and said, "I'm not hungry."

Cheng Yu'an smiled and said: "Anyway, you are a god, you are not hungry when you ask me, how about eating with Dad?"

"Ah."

"I ordered food." Liu Yifei said.

"I went to the hotel restaurant to eat. I didn't do anything wrong. Why stay in the room? I just ate in the restaurant." Cheng Yu'an said.

Liu Yifei knew that Cheng Yu'an said this with emotion, but she was considerate, and the family got off the elevator and went to the hotel restaurant.

The grassland has begun to turn green, and it is expected to turn green at the end of March and early April.

What the crew was looking for was a high-quality pasture, which was very beautiful.

During the spare time assigned by the crew, Cheng Yuan also organized a crew jockey meeting, in which Liu Yifei won the championship.

The champion of the Prairie Song Contest was won by photographer Mr. Zhao Xiaoding.

Everyone had a great time these days.

When the crew was all set up and ready to start, the 90th Oscars also opened.

This year's film quality is not good, and the Oscars are lacking in highlights, but the US government is rushing to give Hollywood a hot spot.

As I said before, Hollywood doesn't deal with the current president. The government attacked Cheng Yu'an before the awards ceremony, and Hollywood didn't mind taking a wave of heat.

After all, Cheng Yu'an is indeed a guest of the Sixth University, and a major film company is a high-quality partner that everyone is eager to cooperate with.

Cheng Yu'an is still filming Disney's "Mulan".

The Oscar Academy originally wanted to invite Cheng Yu'an to present the awards, but Cheng Yu'an refused on the grounds that ""Mulan" will be finished soon, and I can't leave".

Awards host Jimmy Kimmel took the stage to poke fun at the president's narrow cultural policies.

Of course, after Jimmy took the stage, he first talked about his own goal last year: "By the way, I want to say something. When it is said that you won an award this year, don't rush to stand up, just wait."

The whole place laughed.

"We don't want to have another oolong... Last year, the organizer asked me to spoof the accountant a week before the awards ceremony, but I didn't agree. Who would have thought that the accountant would do it himself and mess himself up."

Laugh again.

"It won't happen again this year. This time, the chairman of PricewaterhouseCoopers (the accounting firm in charge of the statistics of the Oscars and the distribution of the lottery envelopes) said, we will focus all our attention on the ceremony. Wrong envelopes will be delivered. It makes sense, but I am curious to ask, where did you focus your attention when you were in the 89th class last year?"

"...Our old friend Oscar is 90 years old. This is a moment to make history. For 90 years, Oscar has attracted outstanding film artists from all over the world. But, everyone, I have a suggestion. Let's go to Washington to host the Oscar next year. Mr. you know who clearly understands movies better than any of us here, and understands national security better."

This joke is obviously ironic about the government's charges against a major film company.

Jimmy didn't even say the president's name, but used the old trick you know who.This burden rang, and the laughter was good.

"You don't believe he knows more about movies? Come on, he gets $5 a year from the union."

The baggage is also good.

But Zhang Yimou didn't understand in the audience.

Cheng Lingfeng explained to him: "The current president used to like to play tricks in movies, and now he still gets a portrait royalty ranging from a few yuan to a dozen yuan from the actors union every year."

It is right to scold the president in Hollywood, and Jimmy went on to speak for Cheng Yuan: "I am very relieved to see that our best director chooses to fight against him, that's right, when will it be the turn of a crappy stand-up actor to decide the Oscars?"

This joke is the best joke. It not only satirizes the president's irresponsible remarks about the film, but also wins the Oscars. A large part of the past hosts of the Oscars are talk show actors.

This year's opening theme wasn't the president's indictment of film culture, but women's empowerment.

Jimmy spent a lot of space later introducing the female filmmakers nominated this year and the issue of equal pay for men and women in Hollywood.

After talking about the feminist movement, it's the turn of tonight's blockbuster film promotion.

Jimmy played "The Shape of Water", "I, Tonya", "Get Out" and "Call Me by Your Name" in turn.

Finally, I talked about "Three Billboards": "Let us welcome Mr. Zhang Yimou with the warmest applause. He is a world-renowned director. I don't need to introduce his resume to you. This is his second foreign language film." , is nominated for an Oscar for the first time, and he has seven nominations tonight."

Zhang Yimou nodded towards the camera.

The seat of "Three Billboards" is very high, which means that it is the favorite to win the Oscar.

Viewers who watched the live broadcast in China could see Zhang Yimou's nervousness.

Because of Zhang Yimou's nomination this year, the attention of Oscars in China is particularly high!
Even Chen Kaige suspended work and deliberately opened the website to watch the live broadcast.

"...So, let's start now," Jimmy finished the 13-minute opening talk show, announcing the official start of the awards ceremony, "Our first award tonight, the Best Supporting Actor Award."
