Chapter 87 "Infernal Affairs" belongs to China, this is very important (please order first)
With the host's funny opening, the Oscar Awards Ceremony officially opened!
The host was constantly interacting with many directors and celebrities, using a unique American way of teasing, which aroused laughter from the audience.
The camera found many people among them, and Guan Ling's camera often appeared in the picture.
"This winter, a hurricane of "Hearing Girl" blew up in the United States. Did you see it? Crystal Liu is sitting there. Her style is very different from the one in the movie!"
"Mary next to her is the first hearing-impaired heroine in the Oscars. After more than ten years, we finally see her appear here again!"
"What? The one next to them looks like she is in her twenties. Who is this man? Why have we never seen this face in movies?
You know, if this handsome Asian guy appears on the screen, everyone will have the same impression as John Lone! , as long as that face appears on the screen, it will attract your attention!
That's because - he is a director!
A person who makes the North American film industry and Hollywood... I am looking at the Chinese director, he is another AngLee! But he is only twenty-three years old!
Do you know what the concept of twenty-three years old is? When I was twenty-three years old, I was still playing with mud on my girlfriend’s body! ”
The exaggerated expressions and body language movements make the host below always fall into the host’s rhythm when introducing the crew.
The crowd below bursts into laughter, and everyone Everyone looked in the direction of Guan Ling.
Leonardo turned and saw Guan Ling. He knew that this Chinese director was very popular in North America in the past few months.
All major film companies are contacting him
Crystal Liu, due to her outstanding performance in "Hearing Girl", has also been marked by many film companies in the industry. If there is a need for Asian roles, she may. Will choose to consider her.
The reason why he knows this news is that he has such a movie now, "Body of Lies" to be shot by Warner Brothers in the United States, in which an Asian character will be shot. The story is about the Middle East, but when considering actors, I did consider this girl.
In fact, the crew has been hesitant until now. Crystal Liu is currently very popular, and the image of Gashfi Farahani is very popular. It will be more appropriate, and the latter country will also interfere with the actor's filming operations.
"Hi, William, this girl, I think we can try to send an invitation? Isn't it? Leonardo turned to look at William Monahan, the screenwriter of "The Departed" and the director of "Body of Lies", "There are many people in Central Asia who look the same as the Chinese!" "
"Let her give it a try when the time comes and see the effect. "William was noncommittal, he couldn't make the decision on this matter.
...
Chengtian Entertainment,
“Jinghua, why are you still paying attention to the Oscars? Don’t you like to watch film festivals?”
Chen Daomin passed by Wang Jinghua’s office , happened to see Wang Jinghua watching the Oscar live broadcast, and curiously went over to ask.
The Oscars brought back his memories. Back then, he played the young Puyi in "The Last Emperor" and had the opportunity to go to the Oscars.
"Guan Ling seems to be able to win an award," Wang Jinghua said, "The camera is looking for him intentionally or unintentionally."
"It should be the actor's award, and the best picture should be out of the question." Chen Daomin has obviously paid attention to the recent public opinion on the Internet, but it is impossible to give the best picture to "Hearing Girl", no matter how popular it is. He is an old actor, so he still knows this very well.
As expected, the first award was handed out and the fate was announced immediately.
Best Supporting Actor Award.
Troy Kotsur, the 'dad' character of "Hearing Girl", is a finalist for this nomination.
The award-giving guests walked onto the stage, and the five works were screened one by one with their introduction.
The person who presented the award for the Best Supporting Actor was New Bond girl Eva Green. This is a very young female star, only in her twenties, but she won the Saturn Award for Best Actress last year for "007" Yes, it can be regarded as the smallest role among the award guests.
There are five films nominated for Best Supporting Actor. In addition to Troy's performance in "Hearing Girl", there are also "Blood Diamond", "Dreamgirls", "The Departed" and "Being a Mother".
As Eva opened the small note and began to read it out, the camera turned to the crew of "Hearing Girl"!
"The winner of this year's Oscar for Best Supporting Actor is Troy Kotsur, congratulations to him!"
The picture was cast on Troy. Since he couldn't hear, he only reacted when he saw the picture. He came over and was at a loss for a moment.
He gestured in sign language that Guan Ling couldn't understand, and the translator said that he was thanking Guan Ling. If it weren't for Director Guan's script and his choice, he would now be just a helpless person fighting against life. .
Later, Yang Ziye won the Oscar for "Best Documentary Short" with "Children of Yingzhou", winning glory for the Chinese.
This film tells the life experience of an AIDS child in Yingzhou, China. For this purpose, many Chinese AIDS experts provided help. She also collaborated with Yao Ming on a public service advertisement before. On the award-winning platform, Yang Ziye held the statuette in his hand and said that he hoped China could broadcast this documentary short film because China needs to pay attention to it and Chinese people need to pay attention to it.
Pay attention to some of the deep sorrows beneath this vast land.
She acted calmly when she went on stage to receive the award. She said "Thank you to all the anti-AIDS heroes for their support" in Chinese on the stage, which moved millions of Chinese people in front of the TV.
Xi Zhongwen failed to win the Best Costume Director award. As a famous art director in Hong Kong, he designed extremely extravagant costumes for "The Golden Armor", but they were still not as luxurious as those in the West. He was "The Queen", the peerless queen, snatched it away.
In the luxury confrontation between China and the West, the Western judges still voted for the one they preferred. When the camera found Xi Zhongwen, his expression was obviously a little disappointed.
"The Departed" won its first Oscar, the Best Adapted Screenplay Award.
The award presenters are new Oscar winner Helen Mirren and two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks.
The big screen then released trailers for the five candidate films. When the voiceover introduced "The Departed", he said that the film was adapted from a Japanese film.
William went on stage to receive the award and talked eloquently on the stage,
Obviously as a screenwriter, he was also led astray,
“I am very excited that I can adapt "The Departed" is a very good Japanese movie. Now the best adapted screenplay I won for "The Departed" also belongs to the original crew. I am very grateful to them!"
Oscar broadcast footage is a good one! What happened was that the camera found Zhang Ziyi in the audience, smiling as brightly as a flower.
Yang Ziye just received the award. At this time, he still had a smile on his face, but he didn't applaud.
"Guan Ling, isn't "Infernal Affairs" our movie?" Liu Yifei pulled Guan Ling's sleeve. "They made a mistake." Guan Ling frowned. He had vaguely heard about this in his previous life. It was said that he was so angry that Liu Weiqiang cursed at the Hong Kong commentary box.
“The award-winning script adaptation can be adapted in the wrong location,” Liu Yifei was speechless.
Hong Kong, Liu Weiqiang, who was commentating on the Oscar live broadcast in the live broadcast room, angrily criticized Oscar,
"Oscar is so embarrassed that he made such a low-level mistake!"
He had previously "Infernal Affairs" applied for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, but it didn't even get nominated. The copyright was sold and it could have been used to gain honors for Hong Kong. Now it's happening again. No wonder Lau Wai-keung is furious!
But the Oscar organizers obviously did not realize this problem.
Next is the award for the best original screenplay.
Nortel, all the professors straightened their spines and stared.
In the middle of the film, Han Sanpin admired his big red robe and also pricked up his ears.
Lingyun Media, Huang Bo, Liu Yan and all the staff of Lingyun Media are watching the live broadcast together today.
Everyone knows very well, and the Chinese entertainment industry also knows very well that whether Director Guan can win the Oscar depends on this one, because the best picture is really too difficult.
There were only four nominations in total, none for Supporting Actress, but one for Supporting Actor, but that gold medal was not for Guan Ling.
The award guest this time is also Tom Hanks.
Accompanying his reading.
"The winner of the best original screenplay is "Hearing Girl". Congratulations to the screenwriter Guan and congratulations to the director Guan!"
The applause below sounded like thunder.
Among the five movies "Tower of Babel", "Letters from Iwo Jima", "Hearing Girl", "Pan's Labyrinth" and "The Queen",
the most disappointing one is "Tower of Babel" , the last two are basically companions,
"Letters from Iwo Jima" and "Flags of Our Fathers" are the two sides of the American perspective and the Japanese perspective. It is indeed somewhat unqualified for him to win the best original screenplay.
But being able to defeat "Tower of Babel" really made everyone explode!
CCTV, the host was so excited that he couldn’t help but raise his voice.
"Let us forget the episode of "The Departed" just now. Guan Ling won the first Oscar for a Chinese filmmaker, not a nomination, not a nomination! Guan Ling won the best original screenplay!
At this moment, he is not fighting alone. Behind him are generations of Chinese filmmakers yearning for Oscars. This is also the first time in the century-old history of Chinese film development that he has stood on the highest stage of world cinema. ! Let’s congratulate Guan Ling! Congratulations to Huaxia Film!”
China Film, Han Sanpin couldn’t help but smile when he saw Guan Ling on the screen.
"This guy is quite calm. My hands are unsteady." The tea in his cup showed ripples.
Nortel, Xie Fei cried with joy,
"Oscar, finally won the Oscar. This is not only Nortel's Oscar, but also China's Oscar."
New picture , Zhang Yimou was unable to speak for a long time.
"Seventeen years, from "Ju Dou" to now, it has been seventeen years in a flash. I have rushed for so many Oscars, but I still can't get what I want. Although this kid made an English film by chance, he just won Here we are.”
Brother Chen Kai saw this scene at his home in the capital, and his fingers turned white because of his jealousy. He was going crazy with jealousy!
Huayi and the Wang brothers looked at each other, and Wang Zhongjun looked at Wang Zhonglei.
“Being kicked out was originally a trivial matter. In order to vent your anger on Li Bingbing, you insisted on leaking his movies and saying that he was competing for Oscars, which made many people ridicule him on the Internet. Now, he is really Got it..."
Wang Zhonglei lowered his head, full of regret.
Feng Xiaogang looked at Guan Ling on the screen, his eyes full of confusion.
Liu Yifei hugged Guan Ling and said, "Guan Ling, best original script!" She couldn't help but cheered. Although she didn't have a share, she was indeed happy for Guan Ling.
Guan Ling walked towards the center of the stage, but his face was still serious.
In front of the microphone, Guan Ling bent down to hold the microphone.
"First of all, I have to correct one thing. "Infernal Affairs" is a movie that I like very much. It is the wisdom of the Chinese film industry and the glory of Hong Kong filmmakers. This is not a Japanese movie. This is very important. . I think Oscar needs to apologize to the creative team of "The Departed". I think Martin, the director of "The Departed", may also be embarrassed by this. As far as I know, he is a good friend of the Chinese director John Woo. Those who are Hong Kong filmmakers”
In Hong Kong, Liu Weiqiang couldn't help but wave his fist.
“Director Guan is awesome!”
Liang Chaowei is at home. His eighteen-year long-distance running lover has just been taken away by Terry Gou. He is not heartbroken, and he can’t help but feel what Guan Ling said. applaud.
"Guan Dao is Guan Dao," Liu Dehua looked at the person on the screen and vaguely realized that a few months ago, the two of them were at the Golden Horse together. And now, he's standing on the podium at the Kodak Theatre.
Wu Baige is also watching the live broadcast of the Oscars. He now has very complicated feelings about Hollywood. He has been there for so many years and has never been nominated for an Oscar.
Hollywood made him successful, but it also caused him to collapse there.
Although he has returned to the Chinese film industry, he is still an unparalleled director, but how can a person who is used to eating delicacies eat fine chaff?
“I really want to go back.” Looking at the radiant young people on the podium, Wu Baige felt that he was not old yet.
Next, Guan Ling held up the little golden man.
“The Oscar is a very sacred place. I am very grateful that I can win this award. I also hope that my award can inspire more Chinese directors and Chinese films to reach a new peak!
Thanks to China Film Group and Bona Group for their investment, thanks to Fox Searchlight for its distribution, and thanks to all the crew members. Due to well-known reasons, the filming process of this drama was difficult.
Crystal was still in the United States for this reason, and learned sign language teaching for about a month and a half, just to make this movie appear in front of everyone with the most realistic expression of movements.
And other actors, such as Mary and Troy, are also real deaf-mute people.
This film has attracted the attention of the World Association of the Deaf, but I think, all of us, There should be more attention paid to them, not just inside or outside the movie, but from the heart. "
Guan Ling finally smiled and raised the statuette to welcome the flashing lights that attracted everyone's attention.
After getting off the podium, Liu Yifei looked at Guan Ling and her eyes were filled with little stars. "Guan Ling, you were so handsome just now! ”
