Chapter 682: The Past


Most of the independent spirit awards for American films are independent films, or films that are different from the big American studios, and are not strictly speaking, mainstream awards in the United States.

However, the influence of the award has been expanding in recent years, and it is also an honor for Xu Jinglei to win the Best Supporting Actress.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon's previous awards at major film festivals have focused on Best Foreign Language Film and Best Director, and actors rarely win awards even if they are nominated.

This point has caused a lot of controversy in China.

The main problem is the discrimination against Chinese actors in the West, and this problem has always existed.

There are also performances by actors, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a martial arts film, and there are too many plots of fights, leaving little room for actors to play.

The judges judge the performances of the actors, mainly looking at the literary drama, not that they can win the award if they play well.

The extended version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon being released by Good Dream Cinema has added a large number of literary dramas, making the plot richer and the actors' performances more three-dimensional.

The disadvantage is that the plot is lengthy, from a martial arts film to a drama film, and the box office is not ideal.

In theaters, in order to attract audiences, adding martial arts scenes is the right choice, but at the same time, it is unlikely that actors want to rely on martial arts films to win awards.

Xu Jinglei got the supporting actress because of a trick, she has a lot of roles in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and she should be the protagonist.

Competing for supporting roles with the lead actor is not uncommon in Hollywood.

In addition, the actor's influence in the United States and the efforts of the public relations team are also the key to winning the award.

Chen Daoming and Yu Feihong are big names in China and have a certain influence in Europe, but they are still newcomers in the United States.

Winning the award requires a long period of foreshadowing, taking Li Yu as an example, he has been in Hollywood for more than ten years, has made several Western films, and has been nominated for several times at the previous Oscars.

American audiences know that there is such a Chinese-American director working in Hollywood, and this is influence.

This time he won a lot of awards, and it was a gradual process.

It's rare to have a movie that doesn't have a little fame, the director and actors Americans don't know, and then it won the Oscar, which is too unlikely.

Zhang Yimou has paved the way for so many years, but he still hasn't gotten it.

The people of the Good Dream Company celebrated Xu Jinglei in the hotel, although it was not an Oscar, but it was an award.

Because of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, she is familiar with the foreign film industry.

Advertisers of major international brands have approached her for endorsements and advertisements, but they are only for the Asian region.

There are two types of advertising for big brands, one is global and the other is regional.

They approached Xu Jinglei because they valued her influence in Asia, and the advertisements they shot were not broadcast on local TV stations in the United States, but only covered various Asian countries.

She also received some Hollywood film contracts, mostly supporting roles and villains, with a salary of about $1 million.

Xu Jinglei refused.

She is going to play a hero next, and she is thinking about changing careers to become a director, so she took a script for Lin Zixuan to check and invited Lin Xiaoling to be the producer.

A small-budget film with an investment of several million, ready to try its hand.

Lin Zixuan was quite helpless.

Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei are both international movie stars cultivated by Good Dream Company, but both of them have plans to become directors, being actors can make money for the company, and novice directors have a great chance of losing money.

But to the extent that they have a certain degree of autonomy in their choices.

As long as it is not too outrageous request, Lin Zixuan will not stop it and let it develop.

Sometimes, he thinks it's for the good of the actor, maybe because of this, he suppresses the actor's talent in other aspects.

Yu Feihong prefers literary films, and it is difficult to take the commercial route, she is the guest of honor at this year's Oscars.

At the Oscars, the presenters are a big attraction.

The Oscars are mainly presented to actors, and some influential directors are more famous, or have humorous conversations that can enliven the atmosphere.

The current nominees and the winners of the previous edition are the favorites for the award presenters.

The other category is the old-fashioned, traditional American big stars and directors, there are always a few in each session, the kind of people who applaud the audience as soon as they take the stage.

It's an opportunity to feast the eyes of movie fans all over the world.

Yu Feihong's invitation is related to her being a Venice actress, coupled with the influence of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

It's a great opportunity to show your face, much better than the actors who sit under the stage and wait for the camera to sweep before they can appear.

Think about it, the 30-second ad at the Oscars is $2 million, and the award presenters appear for far more than 30 seconds, and there are lines, which are better than the commercial.

The Oscars aren't just about movies, every second counts money.

At the end of the celebration, a group of people sat down to watch the night view and chatted.

They stayed in an upscale hotel in Beverly Hills, Hollywood, where Li Yu lived with the owner of an American film company, in a villa suite with a separate courtyard.

The Hong Kong filmmakers stayed in another hotel.

"Every mansion here is worth tens of millions of dollars, and the occupants are either big stars or business tycoons, and the housing prices in Beijing are much cheaper in comparison."

Yu Dong pointed to a group of villas not far away and said with emotion.

Everyone looked at the villa, it was not a villa, but a symbol of wealth and fame.

"At the beginning, Director Feng and I finished filming the people in the capital in New York, bought a ticket back to China, and there were thousands of dollars left, a few people combined, let's go out for a walk, it's not easy to come to the United States, we can't just be in New York."

Lin Zixuan recalled, "So, we came to Hollywood, and we walked around the commercial street in front of us, and we didn't buy anything, and we couldn't afford it. ” "I remember that at that time, Director Feng was talking about when our movie would be able to participate in the Oscars, you listen, Director Feng's heart is big, and he was thinking about the Oscars ten years ago."

Lin Zixuan said with a smile, "Aren't we here now, so there is nothing that can't be done, Mr.

Yu will work hard and buy a villa here in the future." ” "Forget it, it is estimated that it will be ten years later, and I will still buy a villa in the capital."

Yu Dong shook his head and said.

Everyone laughed, spending hundreds of millions of yuan to buy a villa in Hollywood, no matter how you look at it, it is unreliable.

Yu Feihong held a wine glass and looked at the lights of the city in the distance.

She is no stranger to the city, having lived in Los Angeles for two years and is familiar with Hollywood's attractions.

It's just that she used to be a tourist, and now she is a guest at the Oscars, and Hollywood has changed from strange to familiar in her eyes, from hazy to clear.

The reason for all this was that on a summer afternoon, she heard that a domestic crew was filming in Hollywood, and she became curious and followed her classmates to take a look.

In this way, she met Lin Zixuan and an invitation to film.

Yu Feihong couldn't help but have a thought in her mind, if she hadn't met Lin Zixuan seven years ago, where would she be now and what kind of life would she live t1706231537:
