- Chapter 612 High-profile exit
In mid-February 2006, Zhou Shaoming returned to Los Angeles with Christina after traveling for more than a month! At this time, there is only half a month left before the Oscar ceremony!
Zhou Shaoming got off the plane and got into the car with Benjamin¡¯s help!
After carrying the luggage into the car, Zhou Shaoming asked Benjamin: "Ben, is everything going well in the company while I'm out?"
Benjamin hesitated for a moment. After hesitating, Benjamin said truthfully to Zhou Shaoming: "Zhou, you'd better go to the company!"
Hearing what Benjamin meant, it seemed as if something had happened. Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes and asked, "What happened?" He had only been out for less than a month, what could happen to the company?
"It's related to the movie Iron Man." Benjamin took a deep breath. Originally, when Zhou Shaoming came back, Benjamin didn't want to talk about it. If Zhou Shaoming didn't ask, Benjamin wouldn't take the initiative to talk about it!
In addition, since Iron Man was released last year, both box office results and word-of-mouth have been unprecedentedly good!
In this unprecedented and rare situation, Iron Man comics, Iron Man games, and toys are all selling well in the market! After Iron Man became the biggest winner at the Golden Globe Awards, Zhou Shaoming couldn't imagine what problems the company could have now!
Zhou Shaoming, who had just returned to Los Angeles, hurried to the office after hearing Benjamin's words!
Zhou Shaoming entered the office and said to Benjamin: "Call George here."
Benjamin¡¯s departure made Kristina beside Zhou Shaoming a little worried and said: ¡°Zhou, don¡¯t worry, we¡¯ll ask you questions when George comes.¡±
Zhou Shaoming¡¯s frown made Christina, who had just returned to China, a little worried!
George¡¯s steps quickly reached Zhou Shaoming¡¯s ears! Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up. After hearing the knock on the door, George quickly entered the office!
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath. Zhou Shaoming, who couldn't sit still, stood up and asked George, who had just come in: "How could things become like this?"
George frowned and said to Zhou Shaoming: "We didn't expect things to turn out like this. It seems that this year's Oscar jury is very interested in Ang Lee's work!"
"How is this possible?" Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and asked George: "Do you know what happened?"
When Zhou Shaoming returned to Los Angeles, Benjamin still couldn't keep calm and told Zhou Shaoming everything!
As the 78th Oscars approaches, the competition for Oscar-nominated films has reached the final round! In the fierce competition in the previous rounds!
Last year, many of the popular films in the North American market lost out in the competition for the awards!
First, the top players in Star Wars were eliminated, followed closely by Harry Potter 4, King Kong, Magic Kingdom, and Batman 2. Even Zhou Shaoming¡¯s Iron Man could not escape the disaster, and was eventually eliminated in the first two rounds!
Among the four awards of Best Director, Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Actress, all the above-mentioned films were rejected by this year¡¯s Oscar judges!
When the rounds of nominations appeared in people's sight, everyone was surprised. What on earth is going on?
This year¡¯s Golden Globe Awards for Best Picture Iron Man and Best Director Smith Weekly also lost on this fierce Oscar stage. What do the Oscar judges want to do?
The 78th Oscar battle, after being questioned last year, the situation this year seems to be even more chaotic!
In the Hollywood North American film market where blockbusters are lucky, it seems that not many blockbusters can be among the important awards!
????????????????? Iron Man, King Kong, Harry Potter 4, War of the Worlds, and Magic Kingdom. Although after several rounds of elimination, the nominees for the awards have all failed, but,
In terms of minor awards, there will still be nominations for Best Sound Effects and Best Visuals in the future. When such nominations were received by Zhou Shaoming, he sneered a little!
It seems that after critics in the United States continued to advocate last year that Hollywood movies should focus on the concept of small cost and high profit, this year's Oscar judges seem to be implementing this concept!
It¡¯s not hard to tell from the list of grand prizes! None of the blockbusters that appeared in the North American film market last year were on the list!
Iron Man has created a box office myth that is obvious to all in terms of box office performance, but it cannot create a miracle at the Oscars!
When Zhou Shaoming won the Best Director at this year's Golden Globe Awards, Iron Man also won the two Best Picture awards by virtue of its advantages!
At that time, Zhou Shaoming was very motivated, and the Golden Globe Award was the weathervane of the Oscars. Because of this, during the Oscar nomination process, Zhou Shaoming had no plans to stay in the United States!
However, now that I think about it, even if I stay, it seems that I can¡¯t change the rules of the game at this year¡¯s Oscars!
? Brokeback Mountain, which once became a popular movie with Iron Man at the Golden Globe Awards, was filmed by director Ang Lee, after losing to Iron Man at the Golden Globe Awards!
Once again, we are on the road to Oscar competition, but this time, judging from the nominations for Best Picture and Best Director, it seems that Director Ang Lee has no stumbling blocks!
Chinese directors are about to stand on the Oscar podium! Zhou Shaoming watched George give himself the list of Oscar nominations!
Although this list will have to go through a round of soul competition before it can be finally established, from the current situation and George's words, Zhou Shaoming is very clear about his current situation!
"These old guys!" Zhou Shaoming got angry when he looked at the Oscar nomination list in his hand. "Luck is also a kind of strength. I am destined to miss the Oscar this year."
Iron Man continues to create miracles at the box office. At first, even Zhou Shaoming was shocked. This movie is so successful at the box office. It is not only due to the good promotion of the film, but also a part of luck.
Ingredients!
As the person involved, Zhou Shaoming knew this very well!
Even at the Golden Globe Awards, Zhou Shaoming thought so. With the excellent results and shocking scenes of the movie Iron Man, it is enough to influence most audiences in the United States!
I went all the way to the Golden Globe Award, but I couldn't get rid of Li An's movie!
This makes Zhou Shaoming a little worried. After all, the critics last year have all announced the awards for North American films in the future. They should pay more attention to low-cost films and high-profit films! Such a movie
This is the kind of good movie the market needs!
Compared with those stunt movies that only use a lot of money to accumulate, this is what all Hollywood directors should learn!
Chinese directors have begun to appear in the Oscars last year. This trend seems very unusual. This year, Ang Lee has withstood the test with his movies and finally became the final candidate for the Golden Globe nomination.
One of the movies! And the awards candidates are all candidates for are grand prizes!
At that time, Zhou Shaoming was a little worried. After all, the box office in the Chinese film market was not the same as before. At the same time that Hollywood blockbusters began to intensively enter the Chinese film market!
Those who make the rules of the game will also consider the emotions of the Chinese audience! After all, Chinese audiences have seen so many Hollywood blockbusters at one time. In addition to being dazzled, they are enjoying unprecedented
While enjoying the visual feast, a psychological gap increases day by day!
"Oscar old guys, I think the biggest winner of this year's Oscars may be the Chinese director." George looked at Zhou Shaoming, who had stood up angrily, and asked: "What are you going to do? Zhou."
When Zhou Shaoming heard what George said, even George had already seen the situation clearly. This situation could no longer be changed by anyone. Shaoming himself went out last week and could not be contacted, so George did not tell him about this matter.
Zhou Shaoming!
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath, calmed down, sat down slowly, and said to George: "When the movie Iron Man won a big win at the Golden Globe Awards, I thought there would be no Oscars this year.
Any questions, but I didn¡¯t expect that so many things happened in the short time I left? "
Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company has already entered the right track. Even if Zhou Shaoming is not here, Zhou Shaoming believes that with George, Benjamin and others here, the company will not have any problems!
Iron Man has just won the Golden Globe Award, and its box office reputation is so outstanding. With the Oscars to be held in March, Zhou Shaoming is full of confidence. For the promotion of Iron Man, he lent it to Benjamin and George! Zhou Shaoming left with peace of mind at that time!
But I didn¡¯t expect that when I returned to Los Angeles, things would happen to such an extent!
The rules of the Oscars are not decided by one person, let alone which movie can influence the existence of the Oscars!
Even Hollywood blockbusters like Morpheus, Harry Potter 4, War of the Worlds, King Kong, etc. are only eligible to compete for minor awards in this year¡¯s Oscars!
Zhou Shaoming was deep in thought and couldn't help but take out a cigar, slowly lit it and said to George: "Quit from this Oscar!"
George looked stupid and said calmly: "You said you want to withdraw from the Oscars?"
Zhou Shaoming nodded!
George said with a wry smile: "How can I quit at this time!"
Zhou Shaoming said coldly: "How did the movie Star Wars Battlefront withdraw from the Oscars? What should we do?"
George said with some surprise: "Star Wars was eliminated!"
"Don't we have to go through the final round of elimination? You think of a way, I don't want the Iron Man movie to finally appear in this Oscar nomination!" Zhou Shaoming has made up his mind! For this Oscar,
The movie Iron Man can no longer compete for the grand prize, so instead of competing for the minor prize, it is better to just give up!
George took a deep breath. He now understood Zhou Shaoming's mood, but at this juncture, if Iron Man was eliminated from the final nomination, how would the outside world view it? "Zhou, have you thought clearly?"
Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes and said, "This is my final decision!"
George hesitated for a moment, then stood up slowly, "Okay, I understand what you mean." With that, George left the office!
"Ben, please go out, Christina and I have something to say!" Zhou Shaoming ordered to Benjamin!
After Benjamin also left the office!
Kristina held Zhou Shaoming¡¯s body, which was shaking a little. She knew that at this moment, Zhou Shaoming was so angry that his whole body was shaking! "Zhou, forget it, you are still so young, you have plenty of opportunities."
Zhou Shaoming looked a little frustrated and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect the Iron Man movie to come to the end and stop at the Oscars. I may not be able to fulfill our promise so quickly!"
promise? Christina was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhou Shaoming's expression, it turned out that this was what Zhou Shaoming was angry about! "No, Zhou, don't care what I think! If you can't realize your wish, then get on the Oscar podium
If you do, even if you take time out of the day to accompany me, I won¡¯t be happy. "
When he was in Paris, Zhou Shaoming began to have the idea of ????retreating to the second line. With the movie Iron Man, Zhou Shaoming has reached the peak of his life. Zhou Shaoming, who is also feeling tired, wants to win consecutive awards at the Golden Globe Awards and Oscars this year. indivual
After winning the Best Director on stage, he began to slowly withdraw from people¡¯s sight!
Let other directors in the company start to use their talents! In this way, Zhou Shaoming can spend a lot of time with Kristina!
However, although the wish is good, the reality always brings some regrets. Zhou Shaoming never expected that after Iron Man was recognized at the Golden Globe Awards, the Golden Globe Awards, which is the Oscar trend vane, would actually have a big deviation this year!
Zhou Shaoming gradually understood why the Golden Globe Award was given to the movie Iron Man this year! It turns out it¡¯s all about striking a balance!
Director Ang Lee should have been the winner of this year¡¯s Golden Globes and Oscars. Unexpectedly, the emergence of Iron Man changed things!
Looking at Zhou Shaoming's somewhat guilty eyes, Christina encouraged Zhou Shaoming and said, "Don't be discouraged. I believe that with your talent, it's only a matter of time before you get on the Oscar podium again. This time it's just bad luck!"
Zhou Shaoming asked Kristina: "Am I greedy?"
Christina was confused for a moment and said, "Why do you say that?"
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and said: "I have already won the Best Director at the Oscars, and now I want to win it again, and I want to win the Golden Globe and the Oscar at the same time!"
Christina was stunned for a moment. She used to think that Zhou Shaoming just wanted to appear on the Oscar podium as the best director again. You know, even in Hollywood, the top director can stand on the Oscar for best director in his life.
? It is a blessing to be able to win one of the awards! Zhou Shaoming wants to break this tradition and stand at the Oscars for the second time!
However, it seems that even Christina underestimated Zhou Shaoming¡¯s ambition, winning the Golden Globe and Oscar for Best Director at the same time!
"No!" Christina replied seriously: "It's not greedy, for you Zhou, it is something you can do!"
Zhou Shaoming gently held Kristina's hand and said to Kristina: "I didn't expect that after several years of preparation for the Iron Man movie, I still lacked some luck! I don't know when we will meet again. Such a great script!
I think that in the remaining few years, I may have to work harder and make you wait for me again. "
Zhou Shaoming said, touching Kristina's face. This woman who has been waiting by his side has been silently accompanying him.The woman next to me! Zhou Shaoming still felt ashamed when he thought of this!
What I am ashamed of is that once I start working, I almost forget sleep and food. This state of selflessness makes me often ignore the feelings of Kristina next to me, the feeling of the woman I love most!
"Fool!" Kristina held Zhou Shaoming's hand and said, "I'm already yours, why wait to talk about it! Just do what you do, and I will take care of you and live in seclusion in the dormitory!"
Zhou Shaoming looked at Kristina¡¯s charming expression and couldn¡¯t help but hold Kristina in his arms!
On March 5, 2006, the 78th Academy Awards ceremony was held in Los Angeles as scheduled! At this Oscar ceremony, Zhou Shaoming, the most popular Hollywood director in the world last year, was absent. Not only Zhou Shaoming!
Most of the well-known directors in Hollywood did not qualify for this Oscar!
Director George, who is at the forefront of Star Wars, and Mike, the director of Harry Potter 4!
With the emergence of the dark horse of Chinese directors this year, it seems that everyone knows it very well! Last year, there was a director in China. After a trip to the Oscars, he was like a guest and returned with the movie without any gain!
However, even a fool can see this year¡¯s situation!
There is no doubt that this year, standing on the podium for Best Director at the Oscars, it must be this Chinese director!
The Chinese film market is already a place where Hollywood movies gather old money. It is increasingly playing a decisive role in the box office of Hollywood movies!
Although the current Chinese film market is not comparable to the North American film market, the Chinese market with a population of more than one billion has unlimited ** for any product!
Hollywood is the world's most influential producer of blockbuster movies. Hundreds of commercial films are released here every year. The North American movie market has become saturated! There is no room for development and improvement!
With the great improvement of science and technology, after directors shoot movies, the release time is greatly reduced, the competition in the North American film market is becoming more and more intense. In the North American film market, commercial blockbusters often occupy most of the country!
It¡¯s not difficult to see in the North American box office rankings every year! Basically among the top ten movies, each movie can reach a cumulative box office of hundreds of millions!
The number one movie is usually around 400 million. The top ten movies are enough to rival most of the box office results in the North American movie market! This trend is getting stronger!
Especially this year, the Iron Man movie has reached US$5.5 billion in the North American film market alone, and the second highest Star Wars movie has reached US$380 million!
The box office performance of Guangming Bu movie has reached US$1 billion in the North American film market! This terrible box office performance is enough to cause adverse effects in the North American film market!
The Oscars are not a place designed to provide honors to commercial blockbusters. More and more critics and experts, seeing such huge profits, are beginning to criticize!
