MTL - You Made Me a Superstar-Chapter 540 the big one is coming
Chapter 540 The big one is coming
Before "Infernal Affairs 2" was released, it was controversial.
Controversy over its box office, its quality, its change of director...
The major media all sang bad news, and some movie magazines even predicted that the total box office of "Infernal Affairs 2" would not exceed 30,000.
This caused inexplicable pressure in the heart of Wang Shuai, a veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years. He even suffered from insomnia the night before the premiere.
but…
When the final box office came out, Wang Shuai breathed a sigh of relief.
The overall reputation of "Infernal Affairs 2" is not as good as the first one, it is slightly worse, and the total box office is also slightly worse...
But it can be regarded as a very perfect answer sheet, and was shortlisted for 10 nominations for this year's Hong Kong Film Awards.
Yes…
The movie "Infernal Affairs 2" was extremely popular at the Academy Awards, and it was nominated for almost all the awards it won.
In Wang Shuai's career, it is also unprecedented.
After walking the red carpet in a splendid manner, before he could fully enjoy the pursuit of a large number of media people, he heard a burst of excitement from the edge of the red carpet.
Turned…
Then I saw Zhou Yang and Song Yiyi, the golden boy and girl, walking under the eyes of everyone.
…………
When walking on the red carpet, Song Yiyi couldn't hide her smile, as if she had entered some wonderful palace with Zhou Yang.
Unconsciously, countless pictures appeared in her mind.
From meeting, to getting acquainted gradually, to being amazed, and then somehow thinking about Zhou Yang occasionally...
Three short years seemed to pass in a flash.
Then…
She took Zhou Yang's hand unconsciously.
Zhou Yang's hands are broad, but not delicate.
When Song Yiyi held Zhou Yang's hand, she felt as if she had been electrocuted. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but when she looked down at Zhou Yang's hand, she saw that Zhou Yang's hand was covered with deep and shallow calluses. and scars.
The happy mood disappeared in an instant, and the smile became stiff, and the heart felt uncomfortable.
During this time...
How much suffering and grievance did he suffer in the United States, in Hollywood, and in Delaware?
Countless cheers and the capture of reporters' cameras were originally a kind of celebration for Song Yiyi, but at this moment they were extremely noisy.
For a moment...
She no longer had the idea of "scratching her head and posing" in front of the red carpet to annoy An Xiao.
She just wanted to finish the red carpet quickly, and when she was seated inside, she wanted to ask Zhou Yang what happened these days.
However, when the real red carpet comes to an end...
Zhou Yang was surrounded by all kinds of people.
Wang Shuai, Shen Changwei, Zhou Yilin, Chen Shuangbao...
Looking at Zhou Yang who was smiling all over his face, Song Yiyi sat blankly in the corner, a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Perhaps in Zhou Yang's eyes, he is a dispensable and not too important passerby.
She adjusted her mood very quickly. After a short period of helplessness, she regained her strength and walked in the direction of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin".
She has participated in "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" and played one of the heroines in it.
but…
There was not much response on the Internet. Before and after the release, her limelight seemed to be completely overshadowed by the fox demon played by Liu Tingting.
The group of people who used to hang out with Zhou Yang in "Mine Bottom"...
It seems to be mixed up now.
It seems a kind of luck to watch a person go to such a point in his lifetime?
……………
This year's Academy Awards are full of gloom.
It was far less cheerful and exciting than the last 26th Academy Awards.
Hong Kong Island has been greatly affected by the financial crisis in the United States. Not to mention the shrinkage of a lot of capital, it has even dealt a heavy blow to the Hong Kong Island movies that have just begun to recover.
In the panic, everyone began to become cautious.
The host of this year's Academy Awards is Victoria Song...
Song Qianqian’s mother is from Hong Kong Island and has lived on Hong Kong Island since she was a child, so she speaks Cantonese very fluently.
The male host is a new student named Ge Minghui from Hong Kong Island. Garbo Entertainment on Hong Kong Island wants to support him. This year, he has arranged a lot of resources for him, and he is also partnered with Song Qianqian. The official hopes that the two can sing together. song and released an album.
Zhou Yang sat in a conspicuous position, in the middle of the venue, with the three heavenly kings seated at the same time, not far away were some very famous film kings and queens on Hong Kong Island in the early years.
In other fields of entertainment in China, Zhou Yang may not be considered very powerful, but in the field of movies, especially after the operation of carrying the banner of China's movies by one person in the second half of the year, Zhou Yang's status in China is like a rocket. Cengceng to rise, it is a figure of the boss level.
He is a frequent visitor to the entire Academy Awards. Ever since he came in, the camera has been staring at his face without stopping. Even a slight movement was taken by the photographer as news material.
He is the star of the night!
This is the consensus of all the media, and even the organizers of the Academy Awards.
"Everyone, a successful movie has a great driving force for the economy and culture of a society. Therefore, our 2008 Hong Kong movie will fully return to society, reflect society, and influence society..."
Ge Minghui said his lines passionately on the stage.
Under the stage, there were whispers on Zhou Yang's side.
Zhou Yilin hasn't seen Zhou Yang for a long time, this time he took the opportunity of the Academy Awards to have a good chat with Zhou Yang.
The content of the chat probably revolved around persuasion.
He felt that Zhou Yang was bewitched, and the words between the lines revealed that Zhou Yang should think twice or turn around.
Zhou Yang listened, nodded occasionally, but did not express any opinion.
Gradually, Zhou Yilin stopped persuading him, and began to turn the topic to the development of the film industry in 2008 and his personal plan.
Zhou Yang still chose to listen.
Not far away, Feng Minrui and others looked at Zhou Yilin's appearance, and their faces became gloomy involuntarily.
This brat is a **** hermaphrodite, no wonder he said before that this fight, that fight, turned out to be a traitor a long time ago.
If you can act so well, why don’t you become an actor? Being a director is really a waste of talent.
But anger is anger, but there is a sense of powerlessness in his emotions.
He's gone...
If there are no accidents in the future, he will already be a supporting role that no one cares about in this industry.
"Cheer up, President Feng..."
Chen Kai next to him looked at Feng Minrui's listless appearance, frowning slightly.
"..."
Feng Minrui sighed.
In one night, more than half of his assets have shrunk, and almost all his cash has been frozen. Now let him cheer up...
What is he cheering on?
He just read the news, and many experts analyzed that the current overseas situation will only get worse.
……………
"This year's Best Newcomer Award is, oops, when I saw this nomination, I thought maybe the Academy Award made a mistake. He is an old actor, and he has participated in movies that everyone is familiar with. ..."
"Yo, that might be a mistake in the Academy Award, why is the old actor hanging on the Best Newcomer Award?"
"Yes, but after thinking about it, although he is not considered a newcomer in the film industry, he is really a newcomer at the Academy Awards. Well, Mr. Chen should be coming to the Academy Awards for the first time, right?"
"Mr. Chen? There are so many Mr. Chens at the scene, which one is Mr. Chen!"
"Hey, over there, the crew of four..."
"..."
The awards ceremony will begin soon.
Song Qianqian on the stage held the card, followed by Ge Minghui and the two of them wondering for a long time, and then looked in unison in the direction of the crew of "Sniping the Phone Booth".
All the crew members of "Sniping the Phone Booth" participated in the Academy Awards except Zhao Zhen.
Um…
It's funny, there are only four people in total.
Besides Shen Changwei is Chen Shuangbao, and two other staff members, Zhao Zhen went to this year's Oscars ceremony, and Liu Tingting went to the side of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin".
When the light shone there, the whole audience looked there in unison.
They watched Chen Shuangbao stand up, and then walked towards the stage in a daze.
On the big screen in the distance, the screen of "Sniper Phone Booth" began to flash. In the screen, Chen Shuangbao was sometimes angry, sometimes calm, sometimes collapsed, and sometimes cried out in despair...
The emotions at that moment switched vividly, as if the face of the Sichuan opera changed. Even after watching the movie "Sniper Phone Booth" and watching the plot of this movie, everyone still feels scalp numb.
"The actors who came out of "The Bottom of the Mine"... they all look like they are **** cheating!"
Someone began to point at Chen Shuangbao amid countless applause.
Someone looked at Chen Shuangbao holding the trophy for the best newcomer award, and after crying, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and looked at Liu Tianwang in the crew of "Infernal Affairs 2".
Chen Shuangbao was assigned as the best newcomer...
And other movies such as "Sword God" and "Darkness Lurks" seem to have no competitiveness at all.
The box office is mediocre, the word of mouth is mediocre, and some movies are indeed twisted a little bit, and they seem to have a sense of literature and art, but the real core seems to be chewing wax, moaning...
Besides these movies, there is only one "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" that can be regarded as a hit.
However, in the movie "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", it is the heroine Liu Tingting who shines...
Nima!
Isn’t this just Huaxing’s internal awards?
While everyone was discussing, Chen Shuangbao on the stage finished his award acceptance speech, and then returned to his chair, holding the rookie trophy, excited and playing with it for a long time.
This is the first time he has received a decent official award…
The awards ceremony is still going on.
The next few awards are technical awards such as best photography, best editing, and best art action.
These awards, "Crazy Stone", "Infernal Affairs 2", and "Sniper Booth" all participated, but the best photography was awarded to Chen Shumin, the photographer of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", and the best action director award was awarded to Shen Jinsong In "Sword God", except for the best editing that allowed Li Qiang of "Sniper Phone Booth" to win an award, all the awards of Huaxing Films fell through, and they ran away with each other.
"Infernal Affairs 2" even ran with it four or five times.
But Feng Minrui didn't feel gloating, instead his face gradually became serious.
he knows…
The really big one is coming!
