Chapter 336 Best Foreign Language Film!The beginning of a world-class film master

At this moment, it's not that Li An doesn't know Chen Xi.

In fact, the two met briefly at Cannes, but basically there was no communication.

Now, the two finally have more time to communicate, and Li An is also a respectable senior in the film industry to Chen Xi.

Ang Lee is a man who has learned both Chinese and Western cultures, and his understanding and application of Eastern and Western cultures is really handy.

A "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" shocked the world!
And the most important work of Ang Lee this year, which is also a strong contender for this year's Oscar, is "Life of Pi". This movie brings an extraordinary experience between true and false , and the visual effects and 3D effects of this movie are quite good, which also makes "Life of Pi" more attractive.

The final global box office of this movie is close to 6 million U.S. dollars. In fact, the total box office is not as good as "Gravity", but Ang Lee actually set foot on the altar again with this movie.After all, although some of his previous films, including "Brokeback Mountain" and the like, were well received, their performance at the box office was not very good, but his "Life of Pi" had no box office or artistic reputation. Start skyrocketing.

"Director Chen! Hello." Li An said with a smile: "I am very happy to see you here."

"It is my honor to see you here." Chen Xi said, "You are one of my favorite directors."

"Thank you." Li An didn't stay too long in mutual flattery, but just passed these two words, and then said to Chen Xi: "I also like your "Gravity" very much, there is something in it. I think the elements of many Western movies are well done, and I believe it will win an award this time."

Chen Xi also said a few more words of compliment. After all, the two of them couldn't talk about friendship, so what they said now naturally didn't have much nutrition.

Of course, as time goes by, if the two people have more chances to meet each other, they should be able to gradually get acquainted, after all, they are both movie lovers...

Many Chinese audiences are speculating about the conversation between Chen Xi and Li An, but the two did not keep chatting as some people imagined, but said a few words casually, and then the two seemed to bid farewell to each other. I was a little disappointed with some viewers who were expecting the two to chat a lot.

But their disappointment quickly evaporated, because the awards ceremony was about to begin!
Now many movie fans in China are really paying attention to every move of this Oscar, and even this year's Oscar has become the one that Chinese movie fans are most concerned about... After all, they are looking forward to the success of "Gravity" in their hearts. In the end, win the award and get the highest award.

Things like the red carpet are basically over at this time. In fact, in addition to seeing Chen Xi, Zhang Ziyi and others on the red carpet this year, everyone also saw Fan Binbing.

Fan Binbing came very early, and many big names in the Oscars wished they could make an appearance at the finale of the competition, but Fan Binbing and the others who came to the red carpet could only come to the scene more than 20 minutes earlier, because in this way, reporters would be willing to interview she.

There's no way, after all, she's here to rub the red carpet... It's impossible for her to come here as confidently as nominees like Chen Xi and the others.

As for the purpose of her coming here to rub the red carpet, of course it is to increase the exposure rate, and maybe some directors will see it. In fact, she really got the role in "X-Men 2" through this red carpet rubbing!
Fan Binbing is wearing a water-red low-cut dress today, with her hair coiled up, she looks pretty.

If you want to walk the Oscars red carpet, you need a ticket!
And there are generally three ways to get this ticket. The first is the nomination ticket. Chen Xi is this kind of ticket. There are not many such tickets, and intense competition is required. Again, there are boss tickets, which are the tickets that the bosses who sponsor the Oscars get.

Fan Binbing's ticket came from Bill McNicot's boss ticket. Speaking of McNicot, he is the most successful CEO in the history of the Fox Film Company and once served as the chairman of the Oscar jury.

Now Bliss Media under McNicol has a co-production with Fan Binbing ("Sun Moon Mermaid"). In order to increase Fan Binbing's popularity in Hollywood, after Bill got the ticket, he chose to let Fan Binbing attend as his female companion. .

then……

"What is the background of this Asian woman standing next to the big Hollywood boss?" This became the only curious question for Fan Binbing from various media gathered on the red carpet. On the page of the American media.

Fan Binbing came to the red carpet like this, if he wins in dressing up, he wins half... A woman can never lose on the red carpet at the Oscars. Once she chooses the wrong bra at the Oscars, it will be fulfilled the next day The laughing stock of the world!
...and now, the Oscars are officially underway!

Now, the eyes of movie fans all over the world are almost focused on this Oscar.

Chen Xi won the best director nomination award this year, which is really quite surprising. Even if he didn't win the award in the end, as long as he is nominated, Chen Xi's status in the director circle will actually have a certain kind of guarantee.

Oscar, after all, is still the most influential film award in the world.

... The Oscars this year have a very strong commercial atmosphere, and various performances are emerging one after another. The reason is actually very simple. In the current global economic crisis, even some film festivals or award ceremonies like Oscar Cannes, actually They are facing big problems online, so now they are really trying their best to increase income and reduce expenditure, and they also want to attract viewers, so as to prepare for a higher broadcast rate of the next Oscar.

Although Chen Xi was calm down below, he was also a little tired. After all, he was not really interested in these things, so he took some time to go to Oscar's bar corridor. In fact, this is a place for people to rest. There will be some drinks inside, and there will be a lot of people at the same time.

After all, the whole process of the Oscars lasted more than four hours, and it was unbearable for everyone to sit there without moving. Therefore, the organizers usually prepare a lounge next to it, allowing people who are tired of sitting to rest, drink and chat in it, and at the same time expand their network. , In fact, for many people, the most important thing to attend the Oscars is to expand their network, so they need to spend a lot of effort in this place.

And Chen Xi also saw Fan Binbing in it, and the two of them nodded casually, and Chen Xi didn't plan to talk to her too much, after all, these were all her strategies...

The place where she wants to expand her network is not only now, in fact, after the Oscars, there are two banquets that everyone trying to expand their network in the United States can't miss. The company was earlier, and it was a dinner for veteran British singer Elton John to donate to AIDS patients. Many big-name stars who will not be nominated that night will gather here. If you want to mix in the Hollywood social circle, this dinner is a must.

At the end of the Oscars, Vanity Fair will also hold a dinner gathering the winners of the night.

These two dinners are absolutely not to be missed...

In order not to miss these two dinners, Fan Binbing changed clothes in the car to attend the dinner for the AIDS patients after attending the Vanity Fair dinner first... Because the car was too dark, she ignored the clothes she put on That gown would turn translucent in bright light... Of course, those are later tidbits that happened this year.

...Chen Xi saw quite a few of Hollywood's most popular youngsters in this bar corridor, and some of them were also popular actresses, but what made him feel a little miraculous was that many of these people actually came over on their own initiative Greeting Chen Xi and saying a few decent words, it was obvious that they wanted to make eye contact with Chen Xi and know what the other was like.

Chen Xi had already dealt with these matters appropriately.

To his surprise, his eldest cousin Jennifer Lawrence also came over to chat with Chen Xi.

"I love your 'Gravity'! It's a stunning movie, man, I think I should show you the look on my face when I watch the movie, I kid you not, I can put it in my mouth Two eggs!" Jennifer Lawrence smiled at Chen Xi.

Chen Xi: "Thank you! If I had known that you liked this movie, I have to say, I would have asked you to act."

Jennifer Lawrence: "I don't think it may work. I may not be suitable for an astronaut's body. After all, you know, the one played by Zhang is very good. I don't think I have the possibility of being a substitute."

Chen Xi chatted with Jennifer Lawrence for a few words before he planned to get out of the way. Although this guy seemed to have a few more words with him, Chen Xi found that there seemed to be a few reporters who could participate in the Oscars tonight. Here, it seems that he wants to take pictures or something. In order to avoid some domestic media and movie fans collectively YYing himself and Jennifer Lawrence, Chen Xi avoided this person.

Later, he met Quentin Tarantino who came here this year with "Django Unchained". What made Chen Xi feel flattered was that Quentin still took the initiative to talk to Chen Xi and said I really like Chen Xi's movies.

"Hey! Dude! I think we can discuss Chinese kung fu movies when we have time. I think you have a lot of new and interesting ideas in this regard, and we can communicate with each other!" Quentin gave Chen Xi his own contact Chen Xi also planned that if he had time in the United States, he really needed to have a good chat.

Everyone knows Quentin's feelings for Chinese movies, and his love letters to Chinese movies are not one or two...

Chen Xi expanded his network in this way, until he returned to the auditorium when awards related to himself were presented...

The best director was given to Ang Lee this year. His "Life of Pi" is really excellent!As a result, Ang Lee once again reached the pinnacle of the Academy Awards, and won the Academy Award for Best Director for the second time after "Brokeback Mountain".

Seeing Li An's achievements, Chen Xi also applauded him from the bottom of her heart, and when Li An received the award, she also had the opportunity to aim at Chen Xi's face, after all, he is a contender for the best director...

And what the camera saw was Chen Xi applauding sincerely, and with a gratified smile all the time, many people felt that they saw Chen Xi's demeanor.

And "Gravity" finally won an award for the best sound effects. In fact, "Gravity" is still very competitive for the best visual effects, but obviously, the Oscars will not put a movie like this Chinese movies come to slap them in the face, so this award is hard to get.

Next, "Gravity" entered the most anticipated and most feared awards...

The Best Foreign Language Film will be awarded soon!
Now, many people are staring at Anne Hathaway who is announcing the stage. Everyone's eyes are full of urgency, including Chen Xi, who also has a kind of scorching heat in her eyes. , he really wants to get this award!This award is really important to me!As long as he really gets it, he will go to a higher level. You know, the Japanese film master Akira Kurosawa became a world-class film master after he won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

In fact, current Chinese audiences have no less worries and expectations about this matter than Chen Xi. They also worry that this honor of winning the second Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in the history of Chinese films will be directly shattered... …

It's just that the competition for this movie is too strong!
Especially the Austrian film "Love", which is the first film after "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to be nominated for both Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film.

Of course, the fact that "Gravity" was nominated for best director at the same time is actually balancing the two nominations of "Love". From this point of view, the competition between the two is still very fierce.

Now, everyone is staring at the hands of the award presenters...

Finally, Anne Hathaway's words came out: "The film that won the best foreign language film is... a Chinese film, "Gravity", directed by Chen Xi! Congratulations!"

"The dust has settled!"

Chen Xi put down the big stone in his heart, and felt a little sore nose for a while, he quickly suppressed his emotions, and walked up to the podium under the eyes of countless billions of people in the whole world.

Therefore, in the entire history of Oscars, Chen Xi was awarded the best foreign language film for the second Chinese film!

After Chen Xi wins this award, his position in the world film industry will be truly consolidated, and the attention his new films will receive worldwide will inevitably increase rapidly!
At this moment, many of the Chinese movie fans who were watching the live broadcast couldn't help shouting happily...

At this moment, everyone couldn't hide their joy!
