The five films nominated for the best foreign language film are Lao Maozi’s”Leviathan”, Sweden’s”The Tourist”, Israel’s”The Suit”;

Poland and Denmark’s co-production”Sister Ida”, and China’s”Breaking Drummer” 》.

After the award presenter read the envelope, he announced directly:”The winner of the best foreign language film is……《Whiplash”, congratulations!”

Papa pa pa pa”~~~

There was another burst of polite applause.

“Director Lin, we won another award!”

Now Feng Yuanzheng has engraved the English name”Whiplash” of”Explosive Drummer” in his heart and understood it instantly.

Lin Ran nodded, and then stood up on stage to receive the award.

“Lin, congratulations!”

When passing by Richard Linklater, this guy seemed very happy. He stood up and shook hands with Lin Ran.

During this period, although their films have often been the biggest competitors at film festivals, Their relationship is getting better and better.

Richard Linklater may not be well-known among ordinary audiences, but he is very well-known in the industry and has won many international awards.

For example, he has won the Best Award at the Berlin Film Festival twice. The director has been nominated for awards at Venice, Oscar, and Cannes film festivals.

And this”Boyhood” is a work that he has been brewing for 12 years. It is easy to imagine that it will become a big hit at this year’s Oscars.

“Thanks. Lin Ran smiled and thanked him.

When he came to the stage, Lin Ran hugged the award-winning guest and then took the trophy from him.

“Thank you to the Foreign Correspondents Association for awarding the best foreign language film to”Bangkong” and to my actors for their wonderful acting skills. Thank you.”

Since the Best Foreign Language Film award is almost certain, Lin Ran’s mood was very calm, and his speech was very simple.

“Ah, is that all? Finished? Finished?”

“Do you have three sentences in your acceptance speech?”

“Brother Ran, please speak more and don’t be a fast guy.”

“Hahaha, I’ve won so many awards that I’m tired of giving acceptance speeches.”

“Lin Ran went abroad to pretend to be cool, which is really embarrassing to the Chinese people!”

“Is this called showing off? I didn’t expect there to be such people kneeling now”

……

After delivering his speech, Lin Ran returned to his seat and waited peacefully for the award of the last nominee for Best Director.

At the film festival, the biggest award is the best film, followed by the best director, best actor and best actress.

But compared to the best picture, the best director seems to be more awesome.

Because the best director is awarded directly to the film director, and the best picture is awarded to this movie.

If a movie can be made well, the director is of course the chief contributor, but in addition to the director, there are also very important positions such as producers, photographers, lighting engineers, etc.

After waiting for almost half an hour, the other awards were handed out one after another, and finally it was time for Best Director.

The awarding guest is also a very big name, the famous Mexican director Alfonso Cuaron, the director of”Gravity” and”Roma”.

He has won the Oscar for Best Director twice, the Venice of Italy, the British Film Academy Award, the César Award of France, etc.

Last year, he also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Director for”Roma”.

Moreover, Alfonso Cuaron is a truly versatile director. Most of his films are written and edited by himself.

This is very rare in the producer-centric Hollywood.

“Director Alfonso, you are a very good director. What qualities do you think it takes to be a good director?”

“I think the most important trait is to have a wild imagination, and besides that, to have a heartfelt love for the great art of film.”

“Let’s take a look at the list of nominees for Best Director……”

The VCR clips of the five nominated films began to play on the big screen, namely Wes Anderson’s”The Grand Budapest Hotel”, Richard Linklater’s”Boyhood”, and Alejandro Gonzalez Ina. Ritu”Birdman”, Lin Ran”Crackling Drummer”, David Fincher”Gone Girl”》”

After the VCR finished playing, the female guest opened the envelope and said,”The winner of the best director is……”

Alfonso Cuaron took a look and smiled:”Wow! The winner is a director I like very much. He is a truly talented director. He has unparalleled imagination and I like his movies very much.!

He is…Lin Ran!”

Finally, Alfonso Cuaron announced the result loudly

“Director Lin, congratulations!”Hearing that Lin Ran won the best director, Feng Yuanzheng congratulated him.

“haha, thank you.”Lin Ran stood up with a smile on his face.

He was very happy to win the best director.

At the same time, in the live broadcast room of Penguin Video, the barrage floated like snowflakes again

“Lin Ran is awesome!”

“Spread the flowers, I said Brother Ran can win the best director!”

“6666666, Brother Ran will never let me down!”

“Congratulations to Lin Ran, who won 3 out of 4 Golden Globe Awards. What a great harvest!”

“Brother Ran is so awesome, he once again made history and broke the Chinese director’s zero breakthrough in the Golden Globe Award for Best Director!”

“Don’t get too excited, everyone, there is more important Oscar coming next.”

“Now I’m suddenly a little worried about Brother Ran. Be careful, you will die if you become popular, just like Quentin’s”Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”》”

On Weibo, countless netizens congratulated Lin Ran, cheered and excited him, and it became a trending topic in just a few minutes.

After chatting briefly with Alfonso, Lin Ran looked at the audience with the trophy and gave an acceptance speech :

“Director Alfonso just said that a good director needs an unbridled imagination and a heartfelt love for movies. I strongly agree.

《”Gravity” is a perfect example of how to perfectly combine artistry with modern technology, which can be said to have brought movies to a new level.

When I say this, you won’t think that I’m trying to flatter Director Alfonso, right?”

Lin Ran was serious in the first two sentences, but then he changed the topic and made a little joke.

“Hahaha~~~”

“Won’t~~~”

The audience in the audience were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

Lin Ran on the stage shrugged and said with a smile:”Actually, I just said these nice words on purpose, but Director Alfonso just praised me so disgustingly. There is an old saying in China, you give me a peach. , I’ll give you a plum back, so that we can continue to compliment each other in the future.”

“Hahaha~~~”

“Lin is so funny”

“Yes, Lin is the most charming oriental man I have ever seen.”

There was another burst of laughter and discussion in the audience.

When the director pointed the camera at Alfonso, he spread his hands and seemed to repeat what I just praised Lin Ran. is serious

“Okay, this is just a joke. Finally, thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for awarding me the best director award. Thank you.”

After saying this, Lin Ran stepped down from the stage.
