I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor

Chapter 222 Vixen

The Golden Globe Awards took a long time because they also awarded awards for TV series. In addition, Wan Qingshan knew that it was impossible to win the individual award, so he became distracted while watching it.

Zeng Li noticed that he was distracted, and then thought about Wanqingshan's previous absence from attending the outpost.

"Did you know you weren't going to win?"

Wan Qingshan listened to the voice in his ears, thought for a moment, and then replied in a low voice, "It costs money to win the award. I didn't give any money. "Huo Qubing" has no hope of winning. Now let's watch "Parasite" Bian, how much money will the people from CJ Company spend and what prizes will they win?"

At this time, the award for Best Actor in a Drama Series was awarded on stage to Mickey Rourke of "The Wrestler"!

This caused a cry of exclamation from the audience!

For Best Actor, the most popular ones were Wan Qingshan in "Huo Qubing" and Brad Pitt in "Return to Youth".

Worse still is Xiao Li from "Revolutionary Road".

Mickey won the award, which no one expected.

If the Best Actor award made everyone exclaim, then there were even more exclaims after that.

For Best Director, the previous most popular ones were David Fincher for "Parasite" and "The Return of Youth", but the winner was Danny Boyle for "Slumdog Millionaire."

Then, except for the best foreign language film that has not yet been awarded, all the nominated awards for "Parasite" and "Huo Qubing" have not been received.

"Rejuvenation" was shortlisted for five awards, and was more popular than "Huo Qubing", but it also failed to win any. This surprised many people. This Golden Globe Awards is too strange.

When the awards were presented previously, many people frequently looked at Wanqing Mountain.

The two films were shortlisted for nine awards. Many media previously said that Wan Qingshan would be the protagonist of this Golden Globe Awards, and the two films could win at least three awards. But now, even if they win the Best Foreign Language Film, There is only one prize.

At this time, Anne Hathaway whispered to Chen Chen, and then Chen Chen slightly stretched out his head and whispered in Wan Qingshan's ear,
"Director Wan, the vixen asked you if you didn't lobby?"

Wan Qingshan was very surprised and whispered, "Why do you call her a vixen?"

"If you don't call her a vixen, then why call her? I saw what she did under the table just now.

Director Wan, before I left the country, I received a call from the boss’s wife. She asked me to keep an eye on you. If you want to mess around, I have to tell the boss’s wife. "

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Wan Qingshan's face, "You traitor, your salary is paid by me, not by the boss's wife."

"But the boss lady promised me. If you fire me, she will let me work as her assistant, and the salary will be [-]% higher than now."

Wan Qingshan couldn't help but roll his eyes, and then whispered back, "You helped me reply to her, didn't you lobby? Best Drama Actress, isn't it worth spending money?"

After Chen Chen translated the words, after a while, Chen Chen turned around and said, "Director Wan, the vixen said that she spent money, but it may be too little, so there is nothing we can do."

"Then you help me get her back. I did the same. I spent money on Best Director, but I didn't get the award."

As soon as Wan Qingshan finished saying this, the people around him applauded with heavy expressions.

When Wan Qingshan saw this, he immediately pretended to applaud with a serious look on his face.

Knowing that Wan Qingshan definitely didn't understand why, Zeng Li whispered on the side, "The best supporting actor goes to Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight."

Wan Qingshan understood instantly. "The Dark Knight" was a huge success. Heath Ledger performed the Joker that amazed the world, but he died at the beginning of last year. If they weren't heavy, they would probably be all cursed tomorrow. .

After the applause, when director Nolan came on stage to speak on behalf of the award, Chen Chen turned around and said, "Director Wan, the vixen said it's a pity that none of us won the award. Do you want to go have a drink together after a while?"

Wan Qingshan felt a little moved in his heart. The temptation under the table just now made his imagination wander.

But at this moment, Chen Chen said again, "Director Wan, don't be tempted by the flirty fox. Think more about the boss lady."

Mentioning Chen Yumo, Wan Qingshan's slightest emotion disappeared in an instant.

"I know, tell her that I have to go back to China tomorrow, so I don't have time."

Chen Chen immediately turned around to translate with a smile on his face, and then nothing more happened. Anne Hathaway just stared at Wanqingshan, and then turned to look at the stage.

After a while, the best foreign language film came out.

Wan Qingshan didn't understand, but when he saw the people around him applauding and looking over at the same time, without the surprised look in their eyes before, he understood that "Parasite" must have won the award, and Li Meijing's spending money had achieved results.

Li Meijing was the happiest when "Parasite" won the award. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and shouted towards Wanqing Mountain with a smile, "Director Wan, can you bring Quan Doyeon up with you later?"

For an award like Best Foreign Language Film, which is similar to Best Picture, the director or producer usually takes the stage to receive the award.

In "Parasite", Wan Qingshan is both the director and producer, while Li Yancheng is only credited as a scriptwriter.

For awards like Best Picture, actors are not allowed to go on stage, but there is an exception, and that is when the director or producer invites actors to come on stage.

After "My Father and Mother" participated in the Berlin Film Festival, why was Zhang Ziyi pointed at and scolded by Zhang Yimou, "I really don't know the rules, my ambition is written on his face."

In addition to Zhang Yimou, many domestic media also criticized Zhang Ziyi for wearing a bellyband. The domestic media felt embarrassed because major film festivals have a rule that is not explicitly stipulated but will be followed consciously. The entire film will not be awarded unless the director or The producer invites them, otherwise the actors cannot come on stage.

Wan Qingshan didn't have any objections to bringing the actors up. Anyway, if he was scolded and embarrassed afterwards, he would definitely not be the one.

After he got up, he was about to agree to Li Meijing's coming, but suddenly he saw Zhou Xun and Dong Xuan looking at him expectantly.

So Wan Qingshan changed his words, "If you want to go on stage, come together, but you have to think about how the news will be reported in the country after it happens."

Dong Xuan and Zhou Xun don't care so much, as long as they can get on stage, being scolded afterwards is not as important as being on the Golden Globe Awards stage.

As for Wang Zhiwen and Gong Li, they didn't want to go on stage.

Wang Zhiwen knows his situation. No matter how popular he is, his roots are still in China.

But the current domestic market requires actors with box-office appeal. If he is so old, even if he comes on stage, he will not gain any box-office appeal. So it is better not to go on stage, lest he will not gain anything afterwards, but will cause trouble. All sexy.

As for Gong Li, she doesn't need it. She doesn't have to add anything by appearing on the Golden Globes stage.

Wan Qingshan brought three actors and a translator on stage, which was a bit strange, but it was not a big deal. After all, in many previous best foreign language films, more than a dozen people from the entire crew came on stage to receive the award.

"Thank you to the Golden Globe Award. This award is the credit of the entire cast of "Parasite". I also want to thank CJ Company. Finally, thank you everyone!"

Wan Qingshan's acceptance speech was very brief. After Chen Chen translated it, no one found it strange.

In Hollywood, there are people of all kinds, and there are many people with unique personalities. As long as you don't say a word or criticize the judges when you go on stage, it's normal.

When Wan Qingshan stepped down, a large number of viewers on several domestic portals had not yet recovered from their excitement.

"Awesome, won an award."

"I just said, it's impossible for both movies to win neither award."

"Director Wan is great. He won an award for the first time he participated, but it's a pity that "Parasite" is a Korean film."

"What kind of Korean movie is this? I asked my American friends to check it. Except for one important supporting actress and some minor supporting roles, the rest of the actors are all Chinese."

"Gong Li became a Singaporean citizen last year and is not Chinese."

"That's Chinese too!"

"The Chinese are Chinese, not Chinese."

"Okay, why are you arguing about this? Let's see what this idiot Du Chun says. He said before that neither movie would win the award."

"Yes, yes, host, please ask. I want to see what else this idiot can say."

,,,

,,,

,,,

The previous awards passed one by one, and Wan Qingshan's two movies failed to win any. Netizens felt a little uncomfortable. Du Chunjian, who had not won any awards before, was a little too happy, saying that Hollywood actually doesn't like this kind of movies that cater to them. , both films are unlikely to win awards.

The producer saw the situation in the chat room and immediately told the host to ask Du Chun through earphones.

"Du Chun, you said before that neither movie would win, but now "Parasite" has won the best foreign language film. What do you think?"

"I think it may be a coincidence, or it may be other reasons."

Du Chungang wanted to say that Wan Qingshan must have given a lot of money, and there was money behind the film festival.But he didn't dare to say it. If he did, netizens would definitely doubt the major domestic film festivals. Then, when people from these film festivals take action, even if there are people behind him to support him, it will be difficult for him to survive in the country.

Du Chun's words were a little too perfunctory, but the host didn't want to ask any more questions. If he continued to ask questions, the program would probably end early.So, the host changed the subject and congratulated Wan Qingshan.

At this time, South Korea was even more lively than at home. Many people looked at their computers and suddenly shouted excitedly, "Ah, I won the prize!"

The Chinese-language films "Farewell My Concubine" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" have won the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but South Korea has never done so. This is a shameful thing for South Korea, which has a particularly sensitive self-esteem. Nowadays, "Parasite" won a Golden Globe, which is an exciting event.

As soon as the award came out, there were a lot of news reports on the Korean Internet.

'Breaking history, a Korean film won the Best Foreign Language Film at this Golden Globe Award! '

'Parasite', invested by CJ Company, won South Korea a Golden Globe Award! '
Even South Korea's "Daily News" immediately reported, 'This is a feat in Korean film history! '

When these media reported on "Parasite", they would ignore Wan Qingshan and Zhou Xun, and focus on highlighting that this is a Korean movie, invested by CJ Company, and Jeon Do-yeon!

When "Parasite" was a hit in North America, Korean media had been reporting on it, and Korean audiences also knew from the news that this movie was originally a Chinese movie, but the script was scrapped and it became a Korean movie. However, several actors and The directors are all Chinese.

But at this time, they all subconsciously ignored it and only remembered that this was a Korean movie, and this was a movie that created a feat in Korean film history.

While the audiences in both countries were excited, people from the General Administration were having a meeting.

When "Parasite" was a hit in the United States, there were many viewers who criticized and reviewed it. At that time, they didn't think much about it. No matter how much criticism there was, as long as there were no objections from above, they would be fine.

But when the Hollywood media spoke highly of "Parasite", they were a little worried.

Later, "Parasite" and "Huo Qubing" were both nominated for the Golden Globe Awards, but "Building Dreams 2008" was not nominated, and they became even more worried.

In fact, even if "Parasite" wins the Golden Globe, it won't be a big deal, but the trouble is that there will be an Oscar later.

If "Parasite" wins an Oscar, they won't just be criticized by audiences, but from above.

A film that can create history in mainland film history, but because they died and became a Korean film, and also created history in Korean film history, then,,,, I'm afraid they have to retire early.

The higher-ups won't care. They issued a stricter censorship policy before. They only know that you forced "Parasite" to become a Korean movie.

Now South Korea has won the Oscar with "Parasite", but China has not won an Oscar yet.Then there will be suspicion in the world that China is very feudal and there are no Oscars because the censorship is too feudal.

This is not a matter of an Oscar trophy. In the chain reaction, it will have an impact on China's international reputation.

So as soon as the Golden Globe Awards came out here, the director called all the deputy directors for a meeting.

"The movie won an award. Let's talk about it. What should we do next when we get an Oscar?" Director Wang Dahua, who was frowning, glanced at everyone and asked in a deep voice.

Several people looked at each other, but no one spoke.

When Wang Dahua saw this, he let out a long sigh, and asked Chaoda Jin, "Those people who reviewed the script in the first place, why did they kill the script?"

"The script of "Parasite" was first reviewed by Zheng Qi. But he was not sure, so he asked me. I was also not sure, so I asked the people in the script review department to vote on the script of "Parasite".

At that time, I also asked Director Lei to host the meeting together.Director Wang, my main task is to coordinate all aspects, so the meeting at that time was headed by Director Lei. "

Lei Yuanliang suddenly became anxious and said quickly, "I didn't express any opinions on the script at that time. The people in the review department voted for it."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Wang Dahua's eyes. Tian Jin and Lei Yuanliang were both innocent, and they could not be used as scapegoats.

As for the Audit Section, they are not powerful enough to be used as scapegoats. Besides, there are so many people in the Audit Section, and they are all sent to be scapegoats. Doesn’t this make the higher-ups look like fools?

"Okay, now is not the time to hold people responsible. Since the script review is in accordance with the regulations, I have a clear conscience if the higher-ups blame it."

After Wang Dahua said something righteous and awe-inspiring, he looked at Tian Jin, "You are familiar with Wan Qingshan. Ask him how much hope his film has in winning an Oscar."

Tian Jin wanted to refuse this job, but for a moment he had no reason to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

"Also, didn't some media say that Wan Qingshan was going to Hollywood? How about it? Is he sure he is going to Hollywood?"

Wang Dahua's words made everyone immediately look at Tian Jin.

These people are fed up with Wan Qingshan. They were criticized because of the ban of "Heart" before.

Later, because of Wanqingshan, several meetings were disrupted.

Now because of Wanqingshan, they are all likely to be forced to retire early.

They are the people standing behind Wan Qingshan. They cannot afford to offend him, otherwise Wan Qingshan would have been labeled an underground director long ago.

"I asked Han Sanping before, and Han Sanping said that Wan Qingshan might go to Hollywood to develop in the next year."

Everyone suddenly felt that it was dawn. Once Wanqing Mountain left, they felt relieved.

"However, a few hours ago, I received news that someone seemed to be involved in Wanqingshan. Several celebrities were directing viewers online to slander historical figures in Wanqingshan and cater to Americans.

Now I am worried that Wan Qingshan will not go to Hollywood immediately because he is angry, but will stay in the country and find someone to make trouble.

Wan Qingshan was very angry about this matter. As soon as someone attacked him, Zhang Zhao made a statement in the industry and asked people to be more careful when making movies in the future. Qingshan Cinema did not have that many shows.

This is a warning to people in the industry that if these people are hired to make movies in the future, then don’t blame Qingshan Cinema for being the mastermind. "

Tian Jin's next words made everyone's feeling of dawn disappear instantly.

"Nonsense, why is the film and television industry so dirty? This is not okay. The film and television industry has a huge impact on the people. The film and television industry itself is like this. What impact will it have on the people?" Wang Dahua said angrily. .

"Yes, Director, this trend must be stopped. We cannot let them continue like this."

"Yes, Director, you are right, this impact is really bad."

,,,,
After a few indignant echoes, Wang Dahua looked at Tian Jin and said, "Do you know who did it?"

"Director, I know a little bit. As soon as the incident came out, I sent someone to investigate.

These artists who guide netizens have all been in contact with people from the Hong Kong and Bay film and television circles some time ago.

The people who attacked Wanqing Mountain should be people from the film and television circles in those two places. "

Wang Dahua suddenly frowned. If someone here were to take action, he could handle it with just one sentence.

But if it were those two places, it would be troublesome.

Although the direction of the trend has changed, it is only in private. On the surface, we have to show that we welcome development.

Those two places were too sensitive. He also knew that in order to promote exchanges, the higher authorities were preparing to formulate a policy for mutual cooperation in film and television.

Wang Dahua frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Wan Qingshan and Yang Shoucheng have a grudge. I can understand their evil intentions against Wan Qingshan, but what's going on with Chai Zhiping and the others?"

Tian Jin thought for a while before replying, "Director, I think they saw that the mainland's film and television industry is developing and are ready to develop it in an all-round way.

But now the strength here is a bit too strong, especially the Qingshan Department of Wanqingshan. Even though he only has two female celebrities under his banner, he does not have a lot of influence in the eyes of the outside world.

But he has two film production companies on his left hand, a top-ranked theater chain on his right hand, and he also has a close relationship with Enlight Media, which is also very powerful.

It can be said that Qingshan is now in China. Even if state-owned enterprises are included, its strength is only lower than China Film.

The Qingshan system is too strong, and Wan Qingshan never interacts with their people, and Wan Qingshan is becoming more and more domineering.

At the previous meeting, Wan Qingshan dared to stop Yang Shoucheng and others from wanting the bureau to introduce regulations to regulate competition.

I think this may make them worry that after they come in and develop, they will be like Yang Shoucheng and others, with no development prospects, so they join forces with Yang Shoucheng and others to make a first move. "

Wang Dahua pushed up his glasses and said in a deep voice, "What you mean is that Chai Zhiping and the others have the same idea as Yang Shoucheng's gang. They want to suppress everyone, so we should get rid of Wanqingshan first."

"Director, I didn't say that. What I just said was just speculation." Tian Jin said quickly.

Wang Dahua looked deeply at Tian Jin and said nothing more.

But in his heart, he believed that Chai Zhiping and the others were just like Yang Shoucheng and the others, so they wanted to get rid of Wan Qingshan.

Not only Wang Dahua thought so, but people like Lei Yuanliang also thought so, but they didn't dare to continue.

It's not easy to talk about this kind of thing. If you talk about it, you can easily be attacked.

So the meeting ended like this.
