. The Spring Festival has passed in a blink of an eye, and "et" has been fully released in North America. Compared with its popularity in Asia, the response in the United States does not seem to meet Wang Zijun's expectations.
In its first week of release in the United States, "et" only took in a box office of more than 6 million US dollars, which was slightly lower than "The Pianist" a few years ago. Although this result is considered a blockbuster compared with other Hollywood movies, and part of it is due to the off-season box office, but when combined with Wang Zijun's previous movies, this figure is considered a small improvement.
A random street survey conducted by the American media showed that half of the respondents said they would definitely go to the theater to watch Wang Zijun's new film. But after the actual movie was released, it was obvious that many people did not do what they said they would do.
" "et" is not a bad movie. The factor that prompted these people to not fulfill their promises is probably because it is a purely Chinese-language film, and the actors in it are all Chinese.
Chapter 686 of "et" was released in the United States, and Wang Zijun did not have time to participate.
However, there is an episode worth noting at this year¡¯s Golden Globe Awards. Wu Han, a little-known Chinese actor, won the Best Supporting Actor trophy at this Golden Globe Awards. If nothing else goes wrong, Wu Han will also win the Best Supporting Actor Oscar this year. This is the only Chinese actor to win an Oscar for acting in Parallel Space.
The most important thing is that Wu Han is not a banana man with yellow skin and white heart, and he has not even been baptized in the Western religion. He is a devout Buddhist.
The reality is often ridiculous. Countless Chinese stars have tried one after another to win an Oscar for acting, but even Wang Zijun failed to get it (Wang Zijun only got Oscar trophies for directors, screenwriters, etc.), but this This guy came out of nowhere and got the acting award.
The winners of the Golden Globe Awards have been announced. When the media in Hong Kong saw that there was a Chinese inside, they were surprised and confused - where did this guy named Wu Han come from.
Then something even more funny happened, all the Hong Kong media¡¯s Chapter 686. "
Spielberg pursed his lips and said, "That's a good idea." He pointed to the side not far away, "Your compatriots over there seem to want to say something to you."
Wang Zijun turned around and took a look. But it was an Asian man who was hesitantly trying to come up to talk. When he saw Wang Zijun looking at him, he smiled back in embarrassment.
Wang Zijun has seen his photos in Taiwan. Who is Wu Han who just won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor?
"Congratulations on becoming the first Chinese to win a Golden Globe for acting." Wang Zijun apologized to Spielberg and walked towards Wu Han, stretched out his hand and smiled.
"Hello, Mr. Wang." Wu Han shook hands with Wang Zijun warmly.
A reporter girl ran over and said to Wang Zijun and Wu Han: "Two gentlemen, can I take a group photo for you?"
"Of course." Wang Zijun nodded to the female reporter, and then stood side by side with Wu Han.
Based on this reporter¡¯s attitude towards Wu Han, it seems that Wu Han not only has many followers in Asia, but also many people in the United States who pay attention to him. Perhaps, in addition to the identity of the only Chinese Golden Globe Performance Award winner, Wu Han's bizarre life experience as a manager also greatly interested these American reporters.
After taking photos with some celebrities and signing more than ten autographs, Wang Zijun said to Wu Han: "Mr. Wu, my movie will start shooting next month. Your character is a doctor, but he is a very skilled doctor. .¡±
"Doctor?" Wu Han's expression was a little complicated, and the blood circulation was associated with some unpleasant experience. After all, as a doctor, it would be unbearable for anyone to watch his fianc¨¦e, who had saved his life, die in front of his eyes because there was no medicine.
"What, is there a problem?" Wang Zijun asked.
"No, no problem." Wu Han shook his head and said.
"Then it's settled." Wang Zijun said. If he wants to bring "The Three Heroines of the East" into the American market, it would be very risky to rely entirely on new faces. Wu Han is now considered to be somewhat famous in the United States. This is the main reason why Wang Zijun approached him to make a movie.
After chatting about the movie for a while, Wang Zijun took the lead into the awards hall of the Los Angeles Music Center.
In the past, when Wang Zijun attended the Oscars, he always came as a nominee or winner, but today he came here again as an award presenter. This is also the first time that the Oscars has invited a Chinese to be an award presenter.
The host of this year¡¯s Oscars ceremony is Jack Lemmon, a veteran Hollywood actor. After some gags, the best foreign language film went to the Swiss film "Dangerous Action", followed by various long and short films.
"The winners of the 57th Oscar for Best Original Score are - "A Passage to India", "The Handsome" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark"!"
Huo!
Spielberg suddenly stood up and finally won the fucking award. It was rare, even though it was not him who went up to receive the award.
The awards ceremony is still going on. Perhaps it was deliberately arranged by the Oscar organizing committee. Wang Zijun, as the award guest, will be awarded the Best Supporting Actor trophy.
And Chinese actor Wu Han is one of the nominees for Best Supporting Actor.
"Now, I would like to invite Zachary Wang and Jane Fonda to present the Best Supporting Actor and Actor Awards!"
"Wow¡¡"
There were cheers and applause below, perhaps because Wang Zijun has not appeared in the United States for a long time, and many people made strange wolf-like noises.
Wang Zijun and Jane Fonda had already exchanged their award speeches below. After taking the stage, Wang Zijun smiled and waved to the crowd. Jane Fonda was the first to speak: "Wang, I heard that you were kidnapped last year?"
"I think so. I was taken to sea by kidnappers and almost starved to death on the boat." Wang Zijun said.
Jane Fonda said: "Today there is a nominee who has experienced a much more dangerous experience."
Wang Zijun nodded and said: "I know, my Chinese compatriot."
"Okay, the next one is Best Supporting Actress." Jane Fonda said.
Wang Zijun looked at the list and read: "The nominees are Christine Lahti's "Tears of Love" The nominee for Best Supporting Actress is Jane, you can announce the results."
Jane Fonda smiled down and said, "Peggy Ashcroft's "A Passage to India."
A woman ran up crazily and hugged Wang Zijun and Jane Fonda for a long time before she was so excited that she gave an acceptance speech.
Two minutes later, Wang Zijun looked at the envelope and said slowly: "The winner of the Best Supporting Actor is - Wu Han's "War in the City"!"
Wu Han stood up in disbelief and was pushed by the people behind him before running onto the stage.
The first Chinese to win an Oscar for acting has appeared.
