Chapter 730 The road to winning the prize is not smooth

The Oscar's judging body is actually very simple. It is a two-level judging body. The first level is the highest level of the academy chairman jury. Although the number of judging bodies at this level is not large, they have a lot of power to speak. And this first vice chairman is the second in command of this review agency.

"Mr. Zhao, how did you hook up with this Leonardo?"

On the way to Hollywood, Zhang Missile couldn't help asking.

"Don't talk about hooking up, it's as if I have something with him."

Zhao Gangjun gave Zhang Missile a blank look, and then said, "My aunt and him are old acquaintances. I asked my aunt to say hello to him before I came, so I came to chat with him today."

"Your aunt? Is it... Sun Jiaying?" Zhang Missile asked.

"Ah."

"With Ms. Sun Jiaying coming forward, we should be able to secure the Oscar this time!"

Zhang Missile said with bright eyes, "Miss Sun Jiaying is a first-class figure in the world's entertainment industry! Even though she no longer sings and acts, her connections almost radiate the entire world's entertainment industry. In short, if we can invite her to lobby for us, then we will win the Oscar, it will be a certainty!"

"If it were really that easy, we in Shenzhou wouldn't be able to produce a few Oscars in addition to Feng Gang in these years." Zhao Gangjun shook his head and said, "Aunt Jiaying told me that the Oscar is one of lobbying, but in the end The most important thing is that the quality of your film is acceptable. If the quality of your film is not acceptable, it cannot conform to their European and American values. It is useless for you to greet anyone, and this is where the authority of the Oscars lies."

"That's fine."

Zhang Missile said, "Now the reviews of our trial broadcast are quite good."

"Okay, it's not us who have the final say, nor those few people who have the final say, the key is that those above have the final say." Zhao Gangjun said.

"Well, I see."

Soon, a group of people arrived outside Leonardo's villa.

Leonardo seemed to have known that Zhao Gangjun was coming, so he was waiting at the door early.

This made Zhao Gangjun a little flattered. Although this Leonardo is old now, he was a superstar when he was young, and his status in the film industry is not much different from his Aunt Jiaying!

"Mr. Leonardo, hello, hello!"

Zhao Gangjun hurriedly walked a few steps to Leonardo, and reached out to shake Leonardo's hand.

"Haha, hello, young man from the East, I heard from Sun that she has a son like you very early on. I am so happy to see you today." Leonardo smiled and patted Zhao Gangjun on the shoulder.

"Well, I'm not Aunt Jiaying's son." Zhao Gangjun said awkwardly.

"Isn't it? Aren't you Zhao's son?" Leonardo asked.

"Yes."

"Isn't Sun Zhao's wife?" Leonardo asked.

"Too."

"Then you are not Sun's son?"

"this…"

Zhao Gangjun couldn't explain what a harem was for a while, so he didn't bother to explain. Anyway, Sun Jiaying treated her like her own son, so the misunderstanding is just a misunderstanding.

Led by Leonardo, a group of people walked into the villa.

Leonardo's villa is very large, and it can be ranked among the top three villas in the rich area.

As soon as he entered the hall on the first floor, Zhao Gangjun was shocked.

There are all kinds of trophies on the walls around the hall, including Oscars and Berlin Film Awards. There may be forty or fifty in total!

Of course, what shocked Zhao Gangjun the most was that one of the Oscars was actually held by a child sitting on the ground and smashed things...

It's like cracking a walnut.

"Oh, dear Claire, be careful, don't smash your hands, or you will cry again." Leonardo said with a smile.

"Dad, help me get it out of the way." The child said.

Leonardo walked up to the child, picked up the trophy, and smashed the walnut hard, breaking the walnut open.

The child watched and clapped excitedly.

"My God, Mr. Leonardo, that's an Oscar trophy!" Zhang Missile said in disbelief, "How could you use him to smash walnuts."

"This kind of thing has no other use other than taking up space. It's very useful for smashing walnuts."

Leonardo handed the statuette to the child, then walked to a wine cabinet and said, "What do you want to drink?"

"Whiskey." Zhao Gangjun said.

"Me too."

Lin Feng'er also followed suit.

Zhang Missile didn't speak, he was still a bit unable to turn the corner.

The most precious treasure in the eyes of actors all over the world, the Oscar statuette, was actually used by Leonardo to smash walnuts for his son, my God, is this crazy?

"Sometimes, what you think is important, in the eyes of others, is not even worth a smile from someone he cares about."

Zhao Gangjun patted Zhang Missile on the shoulder and said softly.

Zhang Missile shuddered for a moment, then looked at Zhao Gangjun, and said gratefully, "Brother Gangjun...I see."

Zhao Gangjun smiled and sat down on the sofa.

Leonardo walked over with the wine bottle, and then poured a glass of wine for Zhao Gangjun and others.

"On behalf of the American film industry, I welcome you."

Leonardo smiled and clinked glasses with Zhao Gangjun, and then took a sip of the wine.

Zhao Gangjun also took a sip with a smile.

"Gang Bian, Sun and I are old friends, so if I have something to say, I'll tell you directly."

After finishing his drink, Leonardo said to Zhao Gangjun, "If there are no accidents, your film is most likely to win the "Best Foreign Language Film" award."

""Best Foreign Language Film"?" Zhao Gangjun raised his eyebrows and said, "Just this award?"

"Yes, of course, this is just my rough guess. You know, we have several very good movies this year. That guy Pete's new movie has a good reputation, and he has Paramount behind him. But it is a big company, they have already started preparations half a year ago, now they have received a total of 12 nominations, which is close to the historical record, and these 12 nominations include Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, etc. , and the movie you brought has only received 4 nominations, namely Best Director, Best Actress, Best Foreign Language Film and Best Music. Although I saw your movie and thought it was really good, but , do you know what the theme of Oscar is?"

"do not know."

Zhao Gangjun shook his head honestly. To be honest, he really didn't know much about Oscar, he only knew about the statuettes and the alluring female stars on the red carpet.

"The theme of the Oscars is nostalgia, and most of the themes need to emphasize traditional family values, so it is doomed that Oscar's choice will always be a safe, mainstream, and non-controversial movie, while your movie themes are fantasy, and it is still related to the West. It is very difficult for an oriental fantasy with different values ​​to win the votes of the judges." Leonardo said with a serious face.
