Chapter 733 Chapter 732, Perfection of the Oscars

George Clooney's speech on the podium was too corny!

This was Cui Xinqin’s first feeling.

In my mind, Jiang Feng is the best film director, no doubt about it..., where does you, George Clooney, put Joel Coen?

You have to know that it was Joel Coen's "O Brother, O Brother" that pushed you, George Clooney, to the throne of the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor.

In fact, there is another reason why I oppose you saying this, that is, your flattery will make enemies for Jiang Feng!

Well... I'd better send a text message to remind Jiang Feng and ask him to say hello to the people in the team. If he wins the award, he must not say any words of thanks.

However, as soon as Cui Xinqin took out her mobile phone, she saw on the curtain of the experimental theater the image of the award presenter Ben Affleck standing on the award stage facing the camera.

"The winner of the 75th Academy Awards for Best Adapted Screenplay is The Departed. Congratulations, Jiang!"

"Ooooooooo..."

"Clap clap clap..."

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Jiang Feng!!!"

The moment Ben Affleck announced Jiang Feng as the winner, all the teachers and students in the Beijing Film Academy Experimental Theater stood up and applauded.

Some young students even jumped for joy and hugged the people around them, as if they were the winners.

Cui Xinqin was fine. She has always been calm and composed, and was prepared for Jiang Feng to win the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. After all, the producer of the movie "The Departed" was Harvey Weinstein.

Harvey Weinstein has a strong operational capability at the Oscars and Golden Globes.

However, Qi Shilong, Dean of the School of Performance at the Beijing Film Academy, and Wang Jinsong, Vice Dean, who were sitting in the same row, were not so calm. The two men just wiped their tears on their chairs.

"It's not easy."

"It's not easy."

"This is the first time that a Chinese person has won an Oscar."

"And this person is from our Film Academy. When I go to the Ministry for a meeting, I'll see who dares to say that the Beijing Film Academy is not as rigorous as the Central Academy of Drama."

Is this the first time a Chinese person has won an Oscar?

Hearing the sentiments of Qi Shilong and Wang Jinsong, Cui Xinqin frowned slightly. Could it be that the famous director Li An does not retain his Chinese nationality now?
Cui Xinqin was just thinking about it when Xu Jinglei, who was sitting in a remote corner, came over with a laptop in her hand.

"Teacher Cui, Director Qi, Director Wang, look, the news about Jiang Feng's award has been reported on the website at the first time." Although the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy was changed to the Acting College last year, and the original head of the Performance Department was changed to the Dean, Xu Jinglei still continued to address Qi Tulong and Wang Jinsong as they were.

[NetEase Entertainment: Jiang Feng won the first Oscar trophy for a Chinese filmmaker! ]

Just by seeing the news title, Cui Xinqin couldn't help but admire the cunningness of the NetEase website. It was estimated that they had written the copy and content long ago, and as long as they got the news that Jiang Feng won the award, they would send out the news report as soon as possible.

Hengdian, Hengdian International Convention Center Hotel

According to the usual arrangement, the crew of "The Emperor of Han Wu" was going to have lunch in Hengdian World Studios, so as to save time and continue filming in the afternoon.

But today, there is a bit of an exception.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, director Hu Mei announced that the crew had finished work, and then everyone went back to the hotel restaurant to have lunch. No matter if they were actors, staff or extras, everyone went.

The reason for this is that there is a TV in the restaurant, which can be used to watch the live broadcast of this year's Oscar Awards ceremony on the national television movie channel.

Yu Feihong, who just arrived in Hengdian to film yesterday, expressed his gratitude for director Hu Mei's behavior.

Originally, Yu Feihong had already thought about it. She would ask her assistant to bring a laptop to the set, and then log in to the NetEase website to keep up with the latest news on the Oscars ceremony.

But it would be great to be able to watch the live broadcast.

I finished work at 11 o'clock and took off my makeup at 11:12. When I arrived at the restaurant of Hengdian International Convention Center Hotel, it was already 75 noon, and the live broadcast of the th Academy Awards ceremony had been going on for a while.

According to the restaurant waiter's excited narration, the film "The Departed" directed by Jiang Feng has won two major awards, the Best Supporting Actor and the Best Adapted Screenplay.

After hearing the news from the waiter, Yu Feihong snapped his fingers and called the restaurant manager over, telling him that for the actors and crew from the crew of "The Emperor of Han Wu" who came to dine today, two extra dishes would be served on each table, and they had to be hard dishes!
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was excited!

Everyone in the crew was applauding and praising Sister Feihong for her mighty and domineering manner!

Seeing Yu Feihong like this, director Hu Mei shook his head and sighed.

I have to say, this beauty is really rich. You know, the crew has a meal here, with 80 tables, 80 tables means 160 dishes. Even if one dish costs 30 yuan, that's 4800 yuan!

Just as he was shaking his head and sighing, Hu Mei heard someone yelling in the restaurant.

"Don't say anything, the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film has begun."

Hearing the sound, Hu Mei immediately turned to look at the TV closest to her.

At this moment, the TV showed a picture...

Zhang Yimou, Jet Li, Manyu Cheung, Chen Daoming, Fan Jiuyi and others all had serious faces, especially Zhang Yimou. This was the closest he had ever been to an Oscar, and the Oscar he had been longing for was right in front of him.

Award presenter Salma Hayek took the stage, and five foreign-language films appeared one by one on the big screen behind the stage:

The Crimes of Father Amaro (Mexico), Hero (China), The Undertaker (Little Days), Nowhere Home (Germany), Hotel Paradise (Netherlands)

After the video was over, Salma Hayek began presenting the awards.

"Now I announce that the winner of the 75th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film is "Departures". Congratulations to Zhang and Jiang!"

...

“Wipe, wipe, wipe…”

"Zhang Yimou is awesome!"

"Jiang Feng is awesome!"

On the TV screen, the award presenter Salma Hayek had just announced the award results, and the restaurant in the Hengdian International Convention Center Hotel was in a state of excitement.

The bold crew members, the rude-looking extras, the cute and lovely actresses, and the gentle and elegant actors were all in the restaurant, clenching their fists and swearing to vent their joy.

I still remember a Frenchman who was fluent in Chinese said this on the Tianya Forum:
What do you Chinese actors know?
Have you ever won an Oscar?

What else can you do besides using the suffering of ordinary people to win recognition and sympathy at the European Film Festival and win an award? !

Come, come, come...

Now we will show you the strength of our Chinese filmmakers. Even if we use Japanese, we can still shoot classic films.

Just when everyone was happy, they saw the beautiful and intellectual Yu Feihong stand up.

"Manager Xu, add one more dish to each table.

Well, there is also…

If Jiang Feng's films "The Departed" and "Departures" win awards in the next awards ceremony, every award will add a delicious dish to everyone's table."

"Clap clap clap..."

As soon as Yu Feihong finished speaking, there was thunderous applause in the restaurant.

"Sister Feihong, bright and clear!"

Villa 16, Repulse Bay Road, Hong Kong Island

Guan Xiulin sat quietly in her living room, watching TV. The program playing on TV was the live broadcast of the 75th Academy Awards ceremony.

Since it is the signal of Taiwan's Eastern Television, there may be some stuttering sometimes, but it doesn't matter, after all, the people you care about most are on TV.

Talking about the person she cares about, Jiang Feng, Guan Moulin's initial impression of him was that he was handsome. The young man was so handsome, especially when he smiled, he gave people a feeling of being bathed in sunshine.

The second impression is that he is rich. In less than a year of stock trading, he earned 46 billion Hong Kong dollars.

With this kind of fortune, let alone Luo Chaohui who was once known as a real estate prodigy, even Li Chaoren couldn't catch up with him when he rode a horse.

But as the two got to know each other better, Guan Xiulin found that she liked him more and more.

Apart from anything else, the impact and explosive power that Jiang Feng possessed made him tremble. Yes, it was like being electrocuted deep inside his body.

Now that she has his child in her belly, Guan Yulin has a stronger desire to settle down. Isn't that what life is all about? When you are young, play as much as you can and experience everything you want to experience. When you are older, you must settle down and enjoy life.

That's right!

Just enjoy life.

Thinking of this, Guan Moulin gently stroked her bulging belly with her hand.

I don't know if Guan Yulin's actions were too annoying, and Li Jiaxin, who came to pick a fight, saw it. Li Jiaxin pouted hard, and then said:
"Don't show your maternal love in front of me. Let's talk about something practical. I'll give you 1000 million Hong Kong dollars, and you help me win over Jiang Feng and make him marry me.

Well, as long as Jiang Feng and I marry, I promise you that this villa will always be yours. "

"Ha ha…"

After hearing what Li Jiaxin said, Guan Xiulin laughed so hard that she fell over.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Jiaxin was a little angry.

"There's nothing to laugh at." Guan Xiulin wiped her tears.

"Aren't confident women just those who have had several intimate contacts with Jiang Feng? Now I ask you, do you know how many women Jiang Feng has? Do you know how much property Jiang Feng has? Do you know how many women have the same idea as you?

Don't even mention giving me 1000 million, even if you give me million, I can't help you.

Besides, no matter how much the villa I live in is worth now or in the future, Jiang Feng will not give it to me. He will only leave it to his children. "

In the past, Guan Xiulin had never defeated Li Jiaxin in the fight for men. Now that she finally got the chance, she planned to teach this arrogant woman a lesson in her own home.

But at this moment, the voice of the award presenter Halle Berry came from the TV.

"Now I declare that the winner of the 75th Academy Awards for Best Actress is Charlize Theron. Congratulations to Charlize Theron!!!"

Li Jiaxin and Guan Xiulin looked over following the sound of the TV, and saw on the TV screen a blonde beauty in a golden evening dress, hugging Jiang Feng warmly under the podium.

And this blonde woman is none other than Hollywood actress Charlize Theron!

Seeing her, Guan Xiulin had something to say again.

"Ahem..., confident woman, do you still feel confident when you see this person on TV?

Charlize Theron, a South African, is known as the Queen of South Africa. She is 1 meters tall, 77 years younger than you, and she is also the winner of the Golden Globe and Oscar Awards.

As for the relationship between her and Jiang Feng, I believe I don’t need to say more, haha…”

Kodak Theater, Los Angeles, USA
Jiang Feng sat quietly in the guest seats, looking at Charlize Theron standing on the stage with a radiant look, and fell into deep thought for a moment.

George Clooney won the Best Supporting Actor award, he won the Best Adapted Screenplay award, and Charlize Theron won the Best Actress award...

The film has received three of the nine nominations, but just missed out on the Best Special Effects and Best Cinematography awards.

At present, there are still four nominations left to be awarded, including Best Director, Best Picture and Best Actor. For Best Actor, Leonardo Dicaprio and Matt Damon are both nominated. I wonder if they can win one with this 2/5 chance?
Among these four nominations, Jiang Feng most wanted the Oscar for Best Director, because the Best Picture award was a bit confusing.

When I go out and introduce myself to others, I can’t say that I am Jiang Feng, the winner of the Academy Award for Best Picture…

How much trouble is this?!
It would be better to say that this is Jiang Feng, the Oscar-winning best director!
Of course, if I were allowed to decide, I would choose both, because only underage children make multiple-choice decisions.

Jiang Feng was just thinking about it when the Best Actor Award at this year's Academy Awards was announced. The winner was Adrien Brody, who had a wonderful performance in the movie "The Pianist".

When the award presenter Denzel Washington announced that the winner was Adrien Brody, both Leonardo Dicaprio and Matt Damon had looks of deep loss in their eyes.

no way.

Life is like this, not everything can go as planned.

Thinking of this, Jiang Feng took out his mobile phone and sent encouraging text messages to Matt Damon and Leonardo Dicaprio respectively, telling them in the text messages that they should work together again if there is a chance.

Because if I comfort them at the awards ceremony, it will be recorded by the camera and make them a laughing stock in the media. Are Leonardo Dicaprio and Matt Damon so mentally fragile? !
Not only did he not win the award, he also had to ask the director to comfort him at the award ceremony.

After the text message was sent, Jiang Feng put the phone into his pocket with a smile on his face and focused his attention on the podium again.

At this time, the newly-won Oscar winner Adrien Brody had finished his thank-you speech and walked down the podium, while Ron Howard, the winner of the previous Best Director Award, stood on the podium.

"Hi everyone, my name is Ron Howard and I am honored to be here in the same position I was honored to be in last year to announce this year's winners."

After that, the big screen behind the stage began to introduce the five nominees for Best Director: "Martin Scorsese for Gangs of New York, Jiang Feng for The Departed, Stephen Daldry for The Hours, Roman Polanski for The Pianist and
Rob Marshall, Chicago.

After the five nominees were introduced, Ron Howard opened the envelope without further ado and announced, "Now I declare that the winner of the 5th Academy Awards for Best Director is The Departed. Congratulations, Jiang Feng!"

"Jiang Feng!"

"Jiang Feng!"

"Jiang Feng, I love you!"

"Jiang Feng, awesome!"

Beijing Film Academy, Experimental Theater

When all the teachers and students saw Jiang Feng win the Best Director Award at the 75th Academy Awards through the TV broadcast, the whole audience was boiling.

Even the mature and steady Cui Xinqin stood up, clenched his fists, raised his hands high, and tears of excitement flowed from his eyes.

Zhang Huijun, the dean of the Film Academy, who had just arrived from outside, saw Jiang Feng won the Oscar for Best Director, and immediately came to the stage of the Experimental Theater to announce in public:
"Tonight, our school invites all teachers and students to drink in the cafeteria!"

"Jiang Feng!"

"Jiang Feng, that's awesome!"

"Jiang Feng, I love you so much!"

Beijing, Nanluoguxiang Maoer Hutong

When Wang Fei, who was sitting at home, saw on TV that Jiang Feng won the Oscar for Best Director, she immediately stood up and cheered.

Chen Jiaying, who has been taking care of her in Beijing recently, while carefully protecting Wang Fei, also casually instructed Wang Haoyu and Tong Yao who came to her house to watch the live broadcast on TV.

"Don't sit there, both of you. Go to the Ghost BBQ restaurant in Heizhima Hutong and book ten tables. Then notify all the neighbors in Maoer Hutong and tell them that Wang Fei is treating everyone to a meal on behalf of Jiang Feng."

"Fuck..."

"Jiang Feng!"

“Awesome! Awesome!

I can no longer fully express my excitement with words, I can only use these two words, awesome, to express my inner feelings. "

Hengdian, restaurant on the first floor of Hengdian International Convention Center Hotel.

The moment Jiang Feng won the prestigious Oscar for Best Director, the entire crowd was excited.

Several actors who had a good relationship with Jiang Feng even started dancing in the aisle of the restaurant. Even the veteran actor Jiao Huang stood up and applauded.

At this time, Yu Feihong, with a delighted face, took the microphone from the waiter and said, "I just discussed it with the director, and the director agreed to my request, saying that we can give everyone half a day off this afternoon so that those who want to drink can have a good drink."

Speaking of this, the intellectual beauty Yu Feihong waved her white and tender hands and shouted two words.

"Serve the wine!"

"Damn, Jiang Feng!"

"Fuck!"

Villa 16, Repulse Bay Road, Hong Kong Island

Whether it is Guan Xiulin or Li Jiaxin, they are basically people with poor language skills and do not have many words to express their excitement.

At most, he would say “Fuck!”
However, when expressing her excitement, Guan Xiulin still did not forget to satirize her old rival Li Jiaxin.

"Confident woman, see?
Such a talented man, do you think you can subdue him with just your little tricks?

Hehe..., you still want to marry him? I advise you to stop dreaming. "
