Hollywood Starts with Animation

Chapter 161 Cameron: Zhu Ke, congratulations!

After the extremely boring opening remarks, two senior film practitioners took the stage to announce the first award.

Best Photography Award!

Nominations for the 70th Academy Awards, Best Cinematography:

Russell Carpenter, "Titanic";

Januz Kaminsky, "Broken Rage";

Dante Spinotti, L.A. Confidential;

Eduardo Serra, "The Wings of the Dove";

"The winner is Russell Carpenter, Titanic!"

As the winner of the award fell, Cameron, Xiao Lizi and others from the crew of "Titanic" immediately applauded enthusiastically. After all, it was the first award that "Titanic" won after 14 nominations.

A good start is always a joy!

Even the Best Cinematography award is just one of the many awards in the Oscars!

"Mr. Wald, looking at the current situation, the awards won by "Titanic" tonight will be very amazing." Bruce Willis said.

Zucker nodded.

14 nominations and 11 golden statuettes, is it a joke?

really......

In the following four awards for best art direction, best costume design, best makeup, and best editing, none of them were lost, and they were all won by "Titanic".

Terribly powerful!

The film "The Sixth Sense" produced by Wald Pictures under Zucker's name was nominated for best editing, and it failed directly.

"Boss, our first nomination is gone, and the next five nominations are also very dangerous!" CEO Victor said cautiously.

What a danger!

The movie "The Sixth Sense" won a total of 6 nominations for Best Picture, Best Editing, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay. Now the best editing has been lost. And the remaining few nominations,

None are easy to get.

Oscars, do they matter?

Of course it matters!

According to statistics, the film box office that has won the Oscar for best picture and best director every year, its already sluggish movie box office will soar by 15-35 million US dollars in the next week; moreover, in its offline DVD and video tape market , will also increase an additional 25%~70%.

These growth figures are all money!

Every year, the Oscars will bring at least 200 million US dollars to the major Hollywood film companies!

Otherwise, why would the major film companies spend tens of millions of dollars for operation and public relations, just for the sake of profit.

The well-known Weinstein Film Company, through the operation of Oscar awards, has broken into a film company with a market value of nearly 600 million US dollars.

So the Oscars are money for studios;

And for filmmakers who want to become famous, it is a step-up ladder.

Why did the eldest cousin Jennifer Lawrence (player of Transformers) gain such a great reputation and become famous all over the world, so she couldn't escape her "first Oscar best actress after 90 years" title.

......

"Boss, the next award is the Best Original Screenplay Award!" Victor said suddenly.

"Uh?"

For a moment, Zhu Ke, who was still distracted at the beginning of the period, also immediately cheered up.

Will Lao Tzu win?

Not likely!

I'm only 21 years old.

From what I know of the old die-hards at the Academy, they are reluctant to give awards to young people.

But?

Maybe, I can succeed, maybe!

For a while, Rao was Zhu Ke, who had seen many big scenes, and now he is also a little more serious.

"I have Mr. James Cameron and Mr. John Lasseter to present us with the Best Original Screenplay Award at the 70th Academy Awards."

The host said loudly.

Amid the applause, directors Cameron and Lasseter walked to the stage.

"Hehe~!"

Zhu Ke said in surprise: "Both of them are our old acquaintances."

Victor was also surprised.

Bruce Willis looked at Zucker in surprise and said excitedly: "Mr. Wald, you may not know. Generally speaking, the winner of this award, and the person who announces the list, are usually good friends. Well, this is a customary rule."

"You mean, it's possible for me..." Zucker asked with a little surprise.

"That's right!"

Bruce Willis said solemnly: "The possibility of you winning this award is now close to 90%!"

Hearing this, Zu Ke was a little surprised.

Man, that's an Oscar!

Think about it, man!

In the Great Celestial Dynasty, Zhang Daguoshi, Feng Dapao and others tried so hard to win the Oscar, but they couldn't get it. But now, Zucker is close at hand. Even if the best original screenplay isn't as valuable as best director and best picture, that's pretty good.

James Cameron and John Lasseter, both are old foxes, their performance on stage can be described as extremely relaxed and calm.

The dialogue between the two is extremely humorous and humorous.

But!

Suddenly, Lasseter suddenly looked at Zucker, who was sitting under the stage.

"Hey, Zucker! Don't look at others, I'm talking about you, Mr. Zucker Wald! We've known each other for a long time, old friends, you said, after the awards are announced later, once you lose the election, Are you going to cry?" Lasseter joked.

MMP!

Zu Ke's face turned black!

Hey, hey, there are so many people watching, and tens of millions of people watch it on TV. As a friend, how do you make fun of Lao Tzu, are you really good?

"Smile on your face, MMP in your heart!"

At this moment, it is vividly interpreted by Zucker.

"Haha~!"

James Cameron on stage also laughed: "Lasseter, our friend Mr. Zucker Wald, is not as fragile as you think, but he invested in "Titanic" and successfully Well done. I believe, and there is reason to believe, that Mr. Wald must be strong."

"Well, he will never cry in front of you, at most he will go home and cry, hehe."

Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter from the audience.

The eyes of thousands of people at the scene all turned to Zu Ke, who was pretending to be calm.

"Boss, you won't cry, I'm sure." Victor smirked aside.

Where is the comfort in this Nima?

He is totally making up for it!

Zhu Ke was angry at his mother's bad, so he could only look at the camera turned to him, um, smiled.

Woohoo~!

"I've endured the attention that I shouldn't bear at my age!"

......

"Okay guys, now let's announce the winner of the award."

Lasseter held the card in his hand and said loudly, "There are those nominated for Best Original Screenplay at the 70th Academy Awards~!"

"Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Good Will Hunting;

James L. Brooks, "As Perfect";

Paul Thomas Anderson, "Boogie Nights";

Woody Allen, "Deconstructing Harry";

And Zucker Wald's "Sixth Sense"! And the person who won the award is ~~. "

Before Lasseter finished speaking, he handed the card to Cameron beside him and let him announce it.

Cameron, who took over the card, did not refuse at the moment.

He said loudly: "The winner of the 70th Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay is Zucker Waugh... Oh, I read it wrong, congratulations to Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, congratulations to "Good Will Hunting" !"

What the hell!

"Fuck your grandma's Cameron!"

The corners of Zuke's mouth twitched violently. At this moment, he really wanted to take off his shoes and put them on Cameron's old face. Yes, when the Oscars are announced, someone will play like this. Zucker has seen it on TV a few times in his past life, but now it happened to himself...

Anyone can scold her!
