Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 182
This is a couple.

Tim Robbins, the protagonist in "The Shawshank Redemption", and his wife, Susan Sarandon, who once won an Oscar for her husband's "Dead Man Walking".

Tim Robbins, who is 1.9 meters tall, just models with a smile.

The wife pronounced all the main words.

"The nominees for Best Original Screenplay at the 76th Academy Awards are."

"Lost in Translation."

"'Onward to Heaven.'"

""Finding Nemo"."

""untouchable"."

"The Age of Era."

"Oh, he's a handsome guy who just received this award not long ago."

Hearing this, Gu Ming knew that his 100 million was not wasted.

Won a prize.

After all, the word handsome guy doesn't mean who else can I say it to?

So, Gu Ming immediately took out a pair of glasses that he had prepared long ago and put them on.

More artistic temperament.

When the award-winning guest said "Congratulations Gu, congratulations on "The Untouchable"", the director's camera immediately focused on Gu Ming.

Then, the audience in front of the TV saw a handsome young man with an elegant temperament.

"Oh."

Gu Ming pretended to be surprised, and then hugged Dustin Hoffman and Will Smith beside him.

While hugging Will Smith, the guy kept chattering again, "Damn it, you all won the award. It would be so shameless for me not to win the award!"

"I wish you the best of luck! Otherwise, wouldn't it be disrespectful to the US dollar?"

Anyway, it doesn’t cost money.

If you don't win the Best Actor in the end, you don't have to be responsible.

Just think of it as giving Will Smith some psychological comfort.

After the hug, Gu Ming stepped forward and took the statuette from Tim Rogers.

"Congratulations! Gu!"

"Thank you, I'm honored."

Nodding towards the couple, Gu Ming began to say his acceptance speech in front of the camera.

After all, this is the second time I have won this award.

Gu Ming was still relatively relaxed. He took the little golden man in his hand and looked at it. He immediately joked, "It's very similar to the one last time."

After making the audience burst into laughter, Gu Ming began to speak seriously.

"To win this award, I must thank every member of the crew. Without them, no one would have turned this script into a film."

"Of course, the biggest thanks must go to Philip and Aberdare. Without their friendship, there would be no Intouchables."

"This honor should belong to them!"

"They are the best screenwriters, the screenwriters who write life."

After raising the trophy to everyone watching in front of the TV, Gu Ming strode off the podium.

Then the trophy was handed to Dustin Hoffman, who was no longer nominated.

"Hold it for me, and I'll go up and give you the award."

"Oh! You didn't say you were going to be the award guest." Will Smith pulled Gu Ming in surprise, "Is it the best actor?"

"Unfortunately, it's not..."

Gu Ming shrugged.

is the best foreign language film.

Thinking of this, Gu Ming couldn't help but look at the crew of "Hero".

The organizing committee arranged to present the award itself, but in fact the award has already been announced.

Just like in 07 in the previous life, George Lucas, Spielberg, and Francis Coppola were arranged to be the award guests. Who would be awarded the best director?

There is no suspense at all.

However, "Hero" was not obtained in the previous life, but it is likely to be obtained in this life.

All I can say is that the power of money is great!

If you change the issuing company, the difference will be huge.

He went backstage and asked the makeup artists to touch up his makeup. After waiting for more than ten minutes, Gu Ming came from the backstage to the award podium.

……

domestic.

After seeing that the award for Best Foreign Language Film was presented to Gu Ming.

Brother Chen Kai's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

It looks like "Hero" won the award.

Li Yu won it, Zhang Yimou is about to win it, Gu Ming has not won this, but he has the Oscar for Best Picture in his hand.

It's really embarrassing to be short of someone!
For a time, Brother Chen Kai had greater expectations for "The Promise".

The preliminary preparations for "The Promise" have been completed.

Shooting is about to start.

This time we can't listen to their nonsense.

The film must be completely decided by oneself, and anyone who objects will get out.

When it wins the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film next year, the facts will prove who is right!

……

There is no doubt about the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

It was won by "Hero", which switched to Sony Columbia to compete for awards and invested millions of dollars in public relations.

Seeing this name, Gu Ming smiled at Zhang Yimou who was sitting in the audience.

""hero"!"

"Congratulations!"

"Oh!" Zhang Yimou pumped his fist excitedly.

at this moment!
He felt like his life was perfect.

The three majors have nothing to ask for, and they are successful again in the Olympics.

Zhang Yimou walked onto the stage with a happy face, took the trophy from Gu Ming's hand, and nodded to Gu Ming, Zhang Yimou began to read his acceptance speech.

The first one thanks the country for cultivation.

Second, thank you Gu Ming.

"At that time, I was only prepared to spend $300 million to shoot "Heroes."

"The story scenes and so on are much smaller."

"It was Gu Ming who told me that he could call Jet Li and get the budget to 3000 million."

"That's how the current "Hero" came about. I think this trophy is at least half as good as Gu Ming's."

"The remaining half belongs to everyone who has worked hard for this film." "Thank you!"

Director Guan Shaan, who looked like the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, smiled with a smile on his face. After waiting for a while, he held the statuette in both hands and walked off the stage.

Gu Ming also completed his task, returned to the backstage, and then returned to the audience from the backstage.

Then continue to watch "Lord of the Rings 3" killing people.

After a while, it was the turn of the best actor.

Gu Ming was shocked by the award-winning guests who came out.

It's Denzel Washington.

no!
What kind of trouble are you going to make if you let last year's best actor come to present the award?

Could it be, could it be?
Probably, maybe?Maybe?

Gu Ming slowly turned his head and looked at Will Smith.

This guy was clapping his hands like a human being, as if this award-giving guest had nothing to do with him.

But the slightly trembling corners of his mouth betrayed him.

This guy is holding back a smile.

When he saw Denzel Washington, he understood that the best actor would probably be his!
Denzel Washington held the envelope and read.

"The nominees for Best Actor are..."

"Sean Penn, 'Mystic River.'"

"Jude Law, 'Cold Mountain.'"

"Will Smith, 'The Untouchables.'"

"Bill Murray, Love Needs No Translation."

"Ben Kingsley, Dust and Mist Home."

“Congratulations on ‘The Untouchables’ and congratulations to Will Smith!”

As the voice of Denzel Washington, the second Best Actor, fell, the third Best Actor was born!

Will Smith stood up and gave Gu Mingyou a big bear hug.

"Gu! Your blessing is so useful."

"It's so damn cool."

After the hug, Will Smith came on stage to receive the award.

Gu Ming was clapping and thinking.

Yes, Will Smith won the Best Actor, and he was also very happy.

After all, he won the best actor award through his own films.

From now on, he will prove that he has the ability to not only win the three best actors, but also the Oscar winner.

This will greatly help me shoot some literary films here in the United States in the future. Big stars who want to win the best movie will be easier to join and they will be more willing to make certain concessions in salary.

but……

This is unscientific!

Why did the Oscar judges give Will Smith the best actor award?

Sean Penn's performance is obviously more intense!

Could it be that this is the charm of money?
Was it Will Smith who spent $600 million to create the best actor?

It’s unlikely. You can create an actor by just throwing money?That little plum is also very rich. Why did he get hit so many times in his previous life?

Oscar is not that simple.

Or is it compensation for "The Intouchables"?

Because "The Intouchables" is also a good film, but this year there is "The Lord of the Rings" which has been suppressed for two years. In any case, the best picture and best director are "Lord of the Rings 3".

So in order to make people less suspicious of the Oscar organizing committee, give "The Intouchables" other awards.

It just so happens that Will Smith also spends a lot of money on public relations.

It hits it off.

After all, Best Actor is a big award, and it has a big role in promoting the film disc market.

amount……

This is also possible.

But [-]% of the time Will Smith also used other public relations methods.

No!

You'll have to ask this guy carefully when he throws a celebration party.

The feeling of not knowing the answer is still very unpleasant!

As for whether there will be a party, Gu Ming has no doubts.

Will Smith, who usually holds a party when he has nothing to do, will be content with winning the Best Actor Award?

does not exist at all!

……

When Will Smith came down, each of the "Untouchables" trio held an award.

There are only three other awards left that have nothing to do with it.

Best Actress was won by South African beauty Charlize Theron.

Until the Best Director nomination.

Five directors.

Clint Eastwood, the 74-year-old director of "Mystic River."He has filmed the famous "Bridge of Dreams" and "Into the Wild", as well as "Unforgiven", which won him the Oscar for Best Director.

Fernando Meirelles, the famous Brazilian director of "City of God."

Sofia Coppola of "Lost in Translation", as you can tell by her last name, she is the biological daughter of the great director.

Gu Ming from "Untouchable".

And the director of "Lord of the Rings 3", the fat New Zealander Peter Jackson.

In the end, Peter Jackson won the award.

And as expected, "Lord of the Rings 3" won the final Oscar for Best Picture.

"Lord of the Rings 3" was a huge success, scoring [-] out of [-] hits.

Gu Ming's "Untouchable" can't be considered a failure, with three out of five mentions.

Gu Ming had previously thought of guaranteeing the best original screenplay, which would be enough for the best supporting actor.

There is actually one more actor.

It was a surprise.

But this was so unexpected that Gu Ming didn’t even go to see Zhang Yimou at the dinner after the Oscars.

But next to Will Smith, I just want to know an answer, "How do you do public relations? Satisfy my curiosity."

"Of course it's because I care about you. If it weren't for you making such a classic, my PR would be useless."

"You know what I want to know."

"Hehe." Will Smith smiled mysteriously, "It's not complicated actually. It's divided into three steps..."
