Chapter 401 The Chinese at the Oscars (Part 2)

The death of Huang Xinzhuang, a great Hongmen boxer, caused quite a stir in the martial arts world.

And his death still had some impact on Zhang Yi. Although Huang Xinzhuang passed away at the age of nearly a hundred years old, it gave Zhang Yi a little more insight into the existence of life.

Zhang Yi naturally had to attend Huang Xinzhuang's funeral. However, before that, he still had to attend an award ceremony. However, at this award ceremony, Huang Xinzhuang's death made Zhang Yi less happy.

.

"What's wrong?" After Zhang Yi returned, he was not in a high mood. The attentive Zhou Huimin asked with concern.

"Master Huang passed away." Zhang Yi looked at Zhou Huimin and said.

"Master Huang? Master Huang Xinzhuang?" Zhou Huimin asked.

Zhang Yi nodded.

"Then will you still attend this Oscar ceremony?" Zhou Huimin asked immediately.

"Haha, this won't delay." Zhang Yi glanced at Hong Jinbao and others, then forced a smile and said.

If he hadn't participated and Hong Jinbao and others had gone, he might not have been able to sustain the scene, or in other words, they wouldn't have been able to attract much media attention. If Zhang Yi wanted to promote these Chinese filmmakers internationally, he had to use his own popularity.

and the media attention on themselves.

If nothing else, the attention these people attract when walking on the red carpet with themselves is completely different from walking on the red carpet alone.

If you want to say who the media is most concerned about nowadays? It is undoubtedly Zhang Yi. No other big-name celebrity can compare with him.

There were two days left before the awards ceremony, so Zhang Yi did not visit Los Angeles with Hong Jinbao and others. Instead, he took the room to study the handbook he got from Huang Xinzhuang on practicing Bigu Kung Fu.

It's not like Zhang Yi has never read books on Bigu training, but he can't compare with this handbook. After reading it, Zhang Yi finally understood why Huang Xinzhuang couldn't help but practice it, and ended up following Du Xinwu's old path.

Zhang Yi didn't practice it, but got a lot of inspiration from it.

"Ayi, let me ask you, what have you been doing these past two days? Are you looking at this thing? You are not practicing it, right? I heard that Master Huang went crazy and died while practicing this thing." Hong Jinbao said immediately. It seemed that

I want to persuade.

"Who did you listen to?" Zhang Yi looked at Hong Jinbao curiously.

"This matter has been widely spread outside, especially in the Guoshu Building and Chinatown," Hong Jinbao said.

"Yeah!" Zhang Yi nodded without saying anything more, with a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.

On March 21st, at the 66th Academy Awards ceremony, Zhang Yi took the creators of "Inception" to the Los Angeles Music Center.

The annual Oscars ceremony is a grand event in the film industry. This time, because of Zhang Yi and his movie "Inception", it has attracted much attention from movie fans in Asia and other places. Countless TV stations broadcast or rebroadcast it live.

And media from all over the world gathered in the music center.

On the red carpet of this year's Oscars ceremony, there was an extremely eye-catching scene.

When Zhang Yi, the most popular filmmaker in the world, led a group of Chinese people onto the red carpet of the Oscars, almost all the media focused their attention on this group of Chinese filmmakers.

Many people know that these Chinese are not here to make soy sauce this time. Several of them, including Zhang Yi, have been nominated for Oscar awards.

This is also the year in which Chinese filmmakers have received the most nominations. Moreover, the film has the highest demand for winning awards. Of course, the one with the highest demand for winning awards is not Zhang Yi.

Whether it's Best Director or Best Picture, it's not Zhang Yi who's most vocal, but Spielberg and "Schindler's List."

"Boss, honestly speaking, do you regret supporting Spielberg in filming "Schindler's List"? You knew at the time that this film would be a hit at the Oscars. Didn't you think that this film would be a success?

Will it become your biggest competitor in "Inception"?"

As soon as Zhang Yi sat down, he heard Balidile on the other side saying to him with a smile.

"Even without "Schindler's List", it would still be difficult for "Inception" to win important awards, and it could only win a few technical awards. This film was not aiming for awards when it was first shot.

"It's for the box office. But supporting "Schindler's List" is for awards. You see, "Schindler's List" will be the biggest winner this time." Zhang Yi smiled,

said.

"Your vision has always been accurate! But if that's the case, the media will probably say that you've brought it upon yourself." Balidile said with a smile.

"It's your own fault?" Zhang Yi smiled and said nothing more. This matter was already mentioned by the media after the nomination list came out.

The reason why "Schindler's List" could be filmed was inseparable from Zhang Yi's support. But they didn't know that even if Zhang Yi didn't support it, Spielberg could still make the film company compromise and it would still be filmed.

It will shine brightly at this year's Oscars.

At that time, Jiying Film Company was no longer a winner, but a loser.

It may seem like it was self-inflicted, but it actually turned defeat into victory. Of course, the reason why Zhang Yi supports Spielberg is not only because he knows that this movie will shine at the Oscars, but also because of Spielberg as a person and this movie.

the content of the movie itself.

Both the Chinese and the Jews are nations that have suffered disasters. Zhang Yi wanted to make a movie about the Nanjing Massacre, but unfortunately he knew that he simply couldn't handle such a movie.

What you control is not the scene of the movie, but the connotation of the movie.

Zhang Yi is definitely one of the best in the world in controlling movie scenes, but when it comes to movie content, Zhang Yi has always been lacking. "Forrest Gump" has content, but it's a pity that it is based on the original version.

Let Spielberg film the Nanjing Massacre?

An idea suddenly flashed into Zhang Yi's mind, but he hesitated immediately. He knew that Spielberg would probably refuse.

Because making such a movie is too depressing. Zhang Yi knew that when filming "Schindler's List", Spielberg almost collapsed several times, and his family was with him at the time.

The host of this Oscar ceremony is Zhang Yi's acquaintance, black actor Whoopi Goldberg. This black actor was praised by Zhang Yi for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. And because of Zhang Yi's appearance, she was sent several times in advance.

In 2001, she filmed "The Love of Ghosts", and her acting career progressed much better than before.

Generally, important awards will be given at the end.

"The nominees for Best Visual Effects are: "The Nightmare Before Christmas", "The Nightmare Before Christmas", and "Inception"!"

In today's Oscars, every time a nominated movie is announced, the highlight moments of that movie will appear on the big screen. But this time, after the highlights of each movie appeared, there was a lot of laughter in the entire theater.

Even the two creators of "Subversion Warrior" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas" smiled helplessly. The visuals of "Inception" have been said to be shocking beyond the times. How can it be compared?

"Okay, I think many people have already guessed it. Yes, the winner of the 66th Oscar for Best Visual Effects is "Inception"! Congratulations!" The award-presenting guest smiled and said.

"Inception" won the Best Visual Effects. This was undisputed and there was no suspense. However, there was still applause from the audience.

Zhang Yi smiled and did not go up, but gave Lan Naicai a look. Lan Naicai was stunned for a moment, then his eyes dimmed, nodded, and walked up.

He knew that if Zhang Yi asked him to participate in this award, then his nomination for Best Photography would probably be on the line.

Zhang Yi asked him to go up. In fact, in addition to this reason, there was also the visual aspect. Lan Naicai took the greatest credit.

The original "Inception" did win the best cinematography, but "Schindler's List" also won the best cinematography. Who can say clearly when the two meet. And given the habits of the Oscar judges, it is very likely that "

Schindler's List".

Of course, "Inception" is not without opportunities. Many parts of it will be different from the original version. Not all of them are produced by special effects, but are produced through photography and props combined with special effects.
