I have to teach the world a lesson.

Chapter 619 Earn!

The original world 2010.

The once-powerful "Avatar" lost out to "The Hurt Locker."

There was an uproar at the scene.

Even for loyal fans of "Avatar", it is definitely a slap in the face.

There is disappointment, anger, and protest...

Countless people feel that this is one of the greatest injustices in film history!

At that time, the box office of "The Hurt Locker" was less than 50 million, and it could not be said to be artistic, let alone influential...

It is said that the Oscars are a film palace that is equally famous for business and art, but starting from that year, those European and American judges began to gradually change their taste.

This change of flavor is related to the black mermaid, cross-gender, and many aspects of rectification in later generations.

Of course, there is also a voice.

That is because the plot of "Avatar" is weak, it is a story of demolition and indigenous resistance, while "The Hurt Locker" focuses more on reality...

After 2010, the Oscars gradually changed.

Anyway, there are different opinions.

An African-American director stood up.

Even several judges congratulated McCaskey in advance!

He was very calm at that moment!

He has long been accustomed to the lights and applause. He even received the Academy Award many years ago.

He was named one of the directors most qualified to win the Oscar in 2011. At the beginning of the Oscar dinner, he sat down and heard the host repeatedly hinting that "Avatar" was about to make history.

half year later……

Someone once stood indignantly at the Oscars, complaining about the Oscars' gradual blackening, which has completely lost the logic of the story.

The harsh sound was like a sword piercing his eardrums, quite harsh.

Previously...

But when the lights shone on the big screen and he lost to a little-known movie, his face darkened. However, he still did not leave the table angrily. On the contrary, after a brief mood swing, he showed an extreme expression. A cultivated smile.

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

His good self-cultivation prevented him from swearing on the spot...

Countless reporters swarmed in, treating all this as the biggest news in the international film industry in 2011.

And at this moment...

The envelope of "Avatar", history has been dropped.

It tells the story of an African-American who was just released from prison and gradually gained redemption at the bottom and realized his dream of ballet.

When everyone, including himself, thought that he was about to win another Academy Award for "Avatar," a movie that created a world and an epic science fiction blockbuster...

The highly anticipated "Avatar" still lost to a movie called "Black Swan".

And this world's Oscars in February 2011.

The Oscars in February 2011 was the most humiliating day in McCaskey's life.

He sat quietly until the end of the Oscars, and then left the Oscars with the team...

Eventually, that person disappears from the popular media.

but……

The scene was in an uproar, followed by applause one after another.

"I never thought that I would be able to win this award under the king of world cinema, Mr. McCaskey!"

McCaskey, who is preparing a new movie, learned the truth from his friends.

then……

In recent years, the ethnic groups in Laos and the United States have gradually been torn apart. In order to repair this tear, Lao America not only had its first African-American president, but also gave up part of its social reputation to these people in many aspects.

In 2011, nearly four of the Oscar-winning films told stories about ethnic minorities.

The box office of this film was only US$1000 million, making it extremely niche!

The camera light hit his face. On the stage, the African-American man had tears streaming down his face, but he looked at him proudly.

He rarely gave any interviews.

The Oscars of the past.

He saw Avery Tashi walking in slowly with a beautifully crafted invitation and a letter from the other side of the ocean.

It is a palace that is equally famous for art and commerce.

McCaskey has never discriminated against anyone, and has even expressed support for something in public. However, as someone who advocates art, it is really difficult for him to tolerate that a series of things are mixed in the palaces of art and business. , the inexplicable mysterious power gradually forced the balance of fairness and justice to tilt, and gradually...

There was a knock on the door at his company.

By the way, the protagonist of the film is a transgender...

"Black Swan" is a drama film, which is different from the "Black Swan" in the original world...

A holy place in the hearts of filmmakers around the world.

but……

hard to imagine……

It’s the 21st century!

In such a developed era, someone actually wrote a letter. What’s even more unbelievable is that he actually read the letter carefully, and from the letter, he saw a [passionate] and [sincerity] for the movie... …

[Southern California International Film Awards].

He had a vague impression.

In the parking lot after he visited an event last year, like a small advertisement on the street, almost every car had an invitation letter from the Southern California International Film Awards to him...

“Two years ago, we were always a middling award.”

"But two years later at the [Southern California International Film Awards], "Prisoners" was born, and the world-class horror film "7 Days to Die" was born..."

"As the letter said, they are a group of young people who love movies. They long for a film master who can give them a direction in the fog..."

"They are sincere, and they work hard to chase their dreams every day..." "I was infected by that emotion, and I am a witness..."

"So, Mr. McCaskey, I sincerely invite you to become the star of these young people... and serve as the chairman of the third [Southern California International Film Awards]!"

"..."

Avery Tashi's invitation was so sincere that McCaskey was deeply affected.

Thinking about Oscar, he nodded silently.

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

9 month 16 day.

Countless filmmakers in China watched in shock the news that McCaskey served as judge and chairman of the third [Southern California International Film Awards].

Previously, this was just a rumor.

Faced with this rumor, filmmakers who consider themselves smart looked at the Chinese directors who came one after another to pay...

They laughed at these directors, thinking that they were just leeks harvested by Zhang Sheng, one after another.

They also lamented that this group of directors, especially those young directors and investors, have been completely brainwashed by Zhang Sheng.

They think this group of people are fools. Seeing these fools, they boast that they know the truth about traffic, and look down on them with pride.

However, it was not until this moment that they realized that it was not these directors who were fools, but these filmmakers who claimed to be smart...

"Can you contact Zhang Sheng?"

"Can't contact you?"

"All the seats in the first row are booked?"

"The preliminary review list of Chinese films has ended? It was submitted to the International Department yesterday and no more can be added?"

"Who's on the list?"

"What, most of them are movies under [Starlight Future]? Damn it! Why is this!"

"..."

【Shengshi Entertainment】.

The boss, Jin Zhengzhong, was pacing back and forth.

[Shengshi Entertainment] There is some distance between himself and Zhang Sheng, and he used to be one of those smart people who claimed to be...

When the group of young directors from [Starlight Future] came to Zhang Sheng's [NC Entertainment] with almost kneeling gestures, they [Shengshi Entertainment] were always hesitant.

In his heart, he always regarded the Southern California International Film Awards as the inferior third-rate film award that he once was.

The so-called international...

They are all self-proclaimed, and the so-called selling of copyrights is basically a manipulation gimmick.

However, at this moment, he realized that he had most likely missed a big piece of cake, and this big piece of cake was most likely to be truly international.

He knows better than anyone else McCaskey's amazing appeal...

Just when he was deep in thought, he received a call from Shen Jiahui, the leader of [China Film Group].

"Mr. Shen..."

"After a series of meetings at the top, we decided that at the [3rd Southern California International Film Awards], our [China Film Group] Mr. Han Siqiang and Mr. Han will personally attend as representatives of China Film... You [Shengshi Entertainment] also made it in time get ready……"

"Mr. Shen, what are we preparing for?"

"Exhibiting movies!"

"Mr. Shen, how can we participate? All the participating films have been sold out by Zhang Sheng, and our quota is gone! And, the key is, you can't buy quota for the film selection. Our company doesn't have a single film shortlisted... "

"Didn't I remind you before..."

"..."

"In this case, isn't the public screening area ten million per show? I will personally communicate with Zhang Sheng and help you get a few shows. You have also actively supported it recently. Put aside personal grudges, [Southern California International Film Awards] Award] is our first authoritative award in China, and it is also a window for our Chinese films to speak out internationally. The superiors are paying attention... Don't lose your temper at this time!"

"How dare I!"

"..."

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

When McCaskey confirmed to join the [Southern California International Film Awards]...

Chen Kai was so excited!

He even immediately asked his people to prepare for the screening of "The Legend of Tang Cat" at the [Southern California International Film Awards].

but……

In the afternoon, he received a message.

The news said...

The film area leaders of [China Film Group] seemed to have asked Zhang Sheng for a few screening spots.

but……

Zhang Sheng could not be contacted.

When contacted by Shen Xiaoxi, the other party did not refuse, but he also did not promise to spread out a few games. He only said that he had reported to the west of Brazil and the work process had been confirmed. If he pulls it out again, there may not be enough space, but it still takes time to negotiate. There are also overseas ones. Many blockbusters are going to be screened and so on...

While he was watching the news, he suddenly received a call from [China Film Group]...

There they claimed that they would give up two of the five screenings of "The Legend of Tang Cat" to several films from [Shengshi Entertainment]...

After he answered the phone, his face turned green!

Oh shit!

Isn't this an act of banditry?
