You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 146 All judges, please vote, the nomination for the Golden Globe is croaking (2 words plus more)
Excuse me, there are several steps to send out the Oscars.

Answer: There are three steps.

The first step is the nomination vote. A few films are selected from the hundreds of qualified films released each year to form the nomination list. Usually, there are 5 to 10 films for the best films, and 5 films for other types.

The second step is the final voting. The judges choose their favorites from the nomination list and finally get the winner list. Due to the rules, it is basically impossible to have double yolk eggs.

The third step is to announce the awards at the Oscars.

Among the current more than 6000 Oscar judges, more than 90% are white, and more than 3/4 are men, and the proportion of young people is very small, so the judges are nicknamed "old white men", and their aesthetic taste is largely determine the attribution of the award.

In addition to local old white men, there are also a small number of foreign judges to make Oscar look more international.

Wang Quan recently joined the foreign judges. He first nominated the best original screenplay, and then entered the shortlist of the screenwriting department of the academy. With the help of the brokerage company, he invited two old judges to endorse him, and a period of investigation. So successfully became a judge.

The most important thing is to nominate for an Oscar, and the rest will be very simple. If "Juno" can nominate a few more awards this time, he will have a few more judges next year.

It's just a pity that Bao Dexi, Lu Le, Zhao Xiaoding, Ye Jintian, Su Cong, Tan Dun, etc., have all been shortlisted for Oscars, and initially obtained the qualifications to become judges, but they did not follow up, and it was nothing. Only Gu Changwei (nominated for best cinematography) went to the end.

Now only the directors Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige are invited to be the judges, the actors Li Chenglong, Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi, and those Chinese-American actors, oh, and the two directors Li Yin and Wu Yusen.

There are only a dozen or so in total, and if these ten or so people work together, it won't have much impact on Oscar's results, let alone their hearts are not so united.

Some of them come from the mainland, some from Wanwan, some from Xiangjiang, some still retain Chinese nationality, and some have already become foreign nationals.

Cheng Long was in Xiangjiang at this time, and PricewaterhouseCoopers, the accounting firm responsible for counting the votes, mailed the ballots to his home. He had to get a reply before January 1, otherwise his vote would be invalid.

If you do not participate in the awards for many years, your status as a judge will also be cancelled, and you will become an honorary member of the jury, and you will no longer be able to vote.

In the past few years, Cheng Long was not active in voting, and he voted for "Brokeback Mountain" once last year, but he still lost.

This year he decided to vote for "Juno" again.

As an actor, in addition to the best film, Cheng Long can also participate in the voting for the best heroine and heroine. Each of these projects can give up to five candidates.

So after "Juno", he chose a few more that he had watched, "The Departed", "Blood Diamond", "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", oops, I haven't seen the others, so these four are fine .

It’s okay to have fewer than five titles. Juno is the first, and this order is also very important.

As for actors, the little girl who plays Juno should vote for it, and the Juno crew can write it all. Xiao Wang, my brother is so helpful. Whether you can be shortlisted depends on your luck. Don’t forget to give I wrote "Zodiac".

United States, New York.

Chinese-American actress Chen Chong also received the ballot, and along with the ballot came a memorandum of qualified film carefully prepared by PwC. She saw "Juno" in it at a glance, and then turned her head away, It's like a physical discomfort.

This movie is very popular, and it is also a work of a Chinese director. She is the master student of the director Xie Fei. She went to see it a while ago, but when she saw the last scene and saw Juno's boy turned into a girl, her first reaction was, The adoptive mother later managed to conceive and give birth herself, and abandoned Juno's baby.

Although she felt that there was nothing wrong with doing this, people do not kill themselves, and human energy is limited after all, so they must give priority to taking care of their own children, but she always felt that this King Quan filming such a story was aimed at herself, are you so interesting!

She decisively voted for "Little Miss Sunshine" and "Queen", the rivals of "Juno".

Also in New York, Li Press returned to his home in New York after finishing the filming of the new film. After watching those few films, I carefully selected five films and five directors, including King Quan and "Juno".

The growth of this young man surprised him. Whether it was his grasp of the psychology of the American people in the early stage of the movie, or his persistence to himself in the amazing turn at the end, he felt a dreadful feeling.

It’s just that the ranking of the five films and the five directors made Li Yong think a little bit. In the end, he followed his heart, and the films were ranked from high to low: "Babel", "Letters from Iwo Jima", "Juno" and "Juno". Little Miss Sunshine, Blood Diamond.

The order of directors is slightly different, and Wang Quan was placed second by him.

Li Jiapo.

After marrying her husband in 96, Gong Li basically settled here. At the moment she received the Oscar nomination ballot, she decisively put "Juno" in No.1, not just because of Wang Quan's Chinese identity, she is a real I really like this movie, and I also like the performance of every actor in it.

She not only voted herself, but also sent a message to Zhang Yimou, reminding him not to forget to vote this year.

Zhang Weiping was not in a happy mood in China, the capital city, and New Picture Company.

"The Golden Armor in the City" is in full swing. Except for Jia Zhangke, who knows how to live and die, and "The Good Man in Three Gorges" is fighting with "The Golden Armor", all other movies have to stay away.

And "Golden Armor" lived up to expectations. In two weeks and 10 days, it won nearly [-] million box office, ranking first in the year.

But Zhang Weiping was not satisfied. Perhaps "House of Flying Daggers" made foreign film producers lose money. This time, if he sells "Curse of the Golden Flower" this time, it seems that he can't sell it at a high price. The pressure has suddenly come to China. What he hopes The box office beat "Titanic", creating a new box office king in mainland film history!
With such a large investment, Zhang Yimou and Gongli reunited again, and the little king of Asia joined with all their strength, and Fa Ge Liu Ye, three or four billion is not too much!
But looking at the current trend, it's not bad to surpass "Hero", and many viewers don't think highly of it.

There is also North America. He thought that "Golden Armor" would definitely crush "Juno" which had a box office of 8 on the first day, but who would have thought that the box office of "Juno" would get higher and higher, and it was said that it was more than 1000 million!And "Golden Armor" is now only more than 100 million dollars in North America, and it has once again become a stepping stone for the surname Wang!
He was strolling around the company and saw Zhang Yimou's assistant holding an envelope, "What is this?"

"Boss, this is Director Zhang's Oscar ballot, let me mail it to the United States."

"Let me take a look." Zhang Weiping took it directly, all in English, and he didn't understand it very well. When he saw the short words in the first row, he asked the assistant, "What is this?"

"Boss, this is Juno."

"Oh, Juno." Zhang Weiping tore up the ballot.

"Ah, boss..."

Zhang Weiping stared, "Keep your mouth shut."

"Yes, I understand."

Then Zhang Weiping casually threw the ballot into the trash can.

Director Chen Kaige, who has lived in the United States for a long time, recently returned to China. Under the persuasion of his relatives and friends, he decided to regroup and return to his best subject matter. This time he chose "Mei Lanfang".

During the preparations for returning to China, he received a call from Chen Hong in the United States, asking him how to fill in the Oscar ballot.

He replied directly, "Just throw it away, I'm not interested now."

Wang Quan was not in a hurry to vote either. Isn't it Christmas? The crew was on holiday, so he and Anna drove back to Los Angeles, driving a Mazda with two children, Kristen Stewart and the werewolf Taylor Lautner, in the car. actor.

The little werewolf is young and doesn't have a driver's license. Little K has just reached age and hasn't had time to take the test.

Little K actually wanted to ask about the topic of "Juno", but Wang Quan had already spoken beforehand. He accepted the audience's interpretation, but he would not explain it himself, so it was useless to ask.

The little werewolf was complaining that Wang Quan's car was a bit old, saying that he would drive a sports car to school in two years.

The young man understands it very well. I heard that he already has a girlfriend now.

Little K was a little disgusted with this little kid, and asked Wang Quan, "Director, how do you plan to spend Christmas?"

King Quan, "I'm going to watch basketball, the Lakers vs. Rockets."

"So you like the Lakers too!"

Wang Quan, "No, I support the Rockets." For no reason, just because there is Dayao in it.

Little K suddenly didn't want to talk to him, everyone was in Los Angeles, but you supported the Houston team, you traitor!

At the Staples Center, Wang Quan and Gadot carefully walked through the line of Lakers fans and came to the Rockets' phalanx. There was no way to go away. There were too few people and the momentum was weak. Most of them were Chinese students and immigrants.

Fortunately, Dayao is very competitive this time. He has already blocked seven times and scored 36 points alone. At the end of the game, the score is very stalemate. Even Kobe is starting to have a headache. This may be Dayao at his best .

Wang Quan noticed that in the VIP seat, there was a bald old man who cursed severely after the Rockets scored another crucial goal. Wang Quan laughed, "It seems that the rumors are true. As long as there is a Lakers game, you can basically watch it." When it comes to Jack Nicholson, he will take time off to watch the game even if he is filming."

Gadot looked in the direction of Wang Quan's finger, and when he saw the other party glaring at him, Gadot was frightened, "He's so fierce~"

Although this old man has won two Oscar winners, he has countless classics, such as "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "The Shining", "Chinatown", "Batman", etc., and this year's "The Departed", he is a god-level that many directors want to cooperate with He is an actor, but he has a really bad temper. He used to smash the front windshield of other people's cars with a golf club because of road rage. In the end, he paid 50 yuan to settle the matter.

Wang Quan hurriedly put Jia Duoduo into his arms, "Oh, beautiful!"

Gadot thought he was talking about himself, but when he looked up, Dayao successfully blocked shots again, eight blocks in a game, awesome!

With the help of Dayao, McGrady made a shot, succeeded, and whistled!
"Win!" Wang Quan and Gadot hugged and kissed. They are both people who like basketball. Although Gadot likes Kobe more, she made an exception today and liked the Rockets with Wang Quan.

Afterwards, Wang Quan posted today's experience on his blog.

The last blog post announced the launch of "Twilight Saga" half a month ago, which directly made the domestic Chinese version of "Twilight Saga" a bestseller, causing the publisher to urgently reprint it.

But this time, Yao Ming got to know the content of Wang Quan’s blog through some channels, and knew that Wang Quan came to support him in playing, so he invited him to a meal before leaving Los Angeles. It was considered a formal acquaintance. He took a picture together.

There is still one more day of vacation, but Wang Quan has returned to work. Before returning to the crew, he went back to the company, and Dorothy Ma Ling and the others were also there.

Now is an important moment to hit the awards, and no one can stay idle.

Dorothy told Wang Quan the good news that "Juno" won a box office of 400 million US dollars in the first week of Yingguo!
Wang Quan knew before that Dorothy cooperated with a local film distributor in the UK to let "Juno" land on the British Isles first, and it was also the only country where it was released outside North America, in order to hit the British Academy Film Awards next month , which is commonly known as "Ing-Ao", it is also one of the four Oscars.

This data has a big impact on the royal power. A literary and artistic film has a stronger performance than the previous two commercial films. If I remember correctly, the first two British films were more than 200 million in the first week. According to this trend, the British box office can break through [-]. Wan, unbelievable!

Dorothy also told Wang Quan that "Juno" will be screened at the Berlin International Film Festival in mid-January, "The time for the Berlin Film Festival and the British and Olympic Awards is relatively close, and Lily and I may go there at that time, you Probably no time."

Wang Quan sighed, "I was supposed to go back to my hometown for the New Year this year, and visit the graves of my grandparents."

But "The Twilight Saga" is the fastest and the fastest. It would be good if it can be filmed before the Oscars, so the Spring Festival will definitely not be able to catch up. He tries to go back to his hometown on the [-]th.

Dorothy nodded, "Okay, don't go to Europe, but you have to participate in the Golden Globe Awards."

"Oh, the Golden Globe nominations are out?"

"Tonight, but I inquired, we should be shortlisted."

The Golden Globe Awards, although its judges hardly overlap with the Oscars, are very accurate. The key popularity is second only to the Oscars. If they can win this award, they can also gain a certain advantage in the final voting process.

While waiting for the results, Wang Quan and Dorothy reported on the filming of "Twilight", and it should be finished in three weeks.

That night, the nominees for the 64th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards were announced.

"Juno" won Best Director (King), Best Picture Comedy/Musical, Best Actress Comedy/Musical (Lily Collins), Best Supporting Actress Onami Watts, Best Screenplay (King Power), Best Original Music (Phil Collins), Best Original Song (Phil Collins) seven nominations!

Leading the Golden Globes with the Oscar seed "Babel", one more nomination than the other seed "The Departed"!
When the news spread back to the country, the people of the country were shocked. What happened, didn't "Juno" hit the street? ? ?
