    Tonight's Oscars, Shao Shuaijun and his wife entered the venue as bystanders.  Last year's "The Avengers" he directed only received a nomination for best cinematography, and three of the five nominations were from the company, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" and "The Life of Pi".  Living cannibalism.  Fortunately, this time Summit Entertainment¡¯s bet on the film ¡°Life of Pi¡± has achieved encouraging results.  It won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Film Editing, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, Best Visual Effects, Best Song, and Best Film Editing.  It received 11 nominations for Best Score, second only to "Lincoln"'s 12 nominations.  As for the final result, "Life of Pi" won four awards, namely Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects, Best Soundtrack and Best Director, becoming the biggest winner tonight.  Li Yu held the trophy and smiled shyly: "Thank you everyone, thank you 'God of Movies', thank you to the more than 3,000 colleagues who work with me, I want to share this award with you, thank you for believing in this story, thank you  Share this journey with me. Thank you to Yang Martel for the incomparable original novel, to Summit Entertainment and Golden Harvest Entertainment, and to producer Shao Shuaijun for giving me so much help in playing the role of Pi in the movie.  Lal Sharma, your performance is incredible, and all the actors, but I can't thank them all in the limited time. You all have a statue of gold in my heart. Thanks to China, the United States, India and Canada for your work.  To my wife, our 30th wedding anniversary this summer, I love you. To my sons, thank you for supporting me and finally, to the Academy, thank you.  "Shao Shuaijun applauded in the audience and said to Li Xiuxiu: "Just wait, one day I will also win the best director award, and then stand on it and say 'I love you'" Li Xiuxiu said with a smile.  : "Then let's say it, I'm looking forward to that day." "What you say, you can't take back the water you throw out!" The Oscars ended in joy, followed by a dinner hosted by the governor of California.  Originally, Shao Shuaijun never attended such gatherings.  This time, I brought Li Xiuxiu with me to have fun. After all, after living in California for these years, I can't always deny the governor face.  It was confirmed early in the morning that Shao Shuaijun and his wife would come to the dinner. The governor immediately felt that he was full of face and arranged Shao Shuaijun next to him.  The dishes on the table are designed by celebrity chef Parker himself, and many Chinese-style dishes are designed to express respect for Shao Shuaijun and his wife.  Before the dinner, Vanity Fair magazine will also interview the winners. Shao Shuaijun did not win the award, but he was inevitably caught for an interview.  Letting Li Xiuxiu, Mitchell's wife and others enter the stage first, Shao Shuaijun accepted an interview with Bob Colacello, the reporter of Vanity Fair.  "Director Shao, it's rare to see you attending the Oscar dinner today. Is it because the food tastes good that you stay?" Shao Shuaijun smiled and said, "Maybe. I used to be embarrassed to come here to eat and drink because I have come so many times.  The Oscars didn¡¯t give me any decent personal awards.¡± ¡°Director Shao, are you disappointed that you didn¡¯t win?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t say that I¡¯m disappointed. After all, most of the films I shot before were commercial films.  There is no in-depth exploration of the portrayal. The Oscar is about art, so it is normal not to give me an award. "Avatar" was so successful, and Cameron did not win a statuette. As a technical commercial director, it is not outrageous for me not to win an award.  Of course, there will always be some knots in my heart, because I have not even received a nomination for best director. I think it is quite tragic for Nolan and me. We are good enough commercially, and the Oscar is always far away." "But you and Came are always far away.  Ron and Nolan, your hands are already weak at the Technology Awards, aren't you? You are not only commercial directors, but also technical directors. Cameron is deeply involved in 3D and other high technologies, and Nolan is in retro technology.  It¡¯s also very impressive, and you have brought together all kinds of film technologies. Can I ask, why is your team so crazy about technology? If you put your energy into humanities and arts, it shouldn¡¯t be difficult to win.¡± Shao Shuaijun.  He laughed: "I like technology, and technology can make people crazy. The retro photography in "Inception" can make people amazed, and the IMAX-3D technology in "Avatar" is enough to shock the world. In "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"  The facial expression capture technology is enough to create different species that look real. It was hard for filmmakers in the last century to imagine how much technology has changed movies. In the past, they had pictures in their minds but couldn't imagine it because they couldn't make it.  Now we can do it, but we can¡¯t think of a better picture in our minds. Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s very interesting to challenge the audience¡¯s visual endurance?When they scream in the cinema, it feels even better than winning an award.  " "This is indeed very exciting. So, after "Avengers" received a box office of 1.67 billion U.S. dollars, your commercial achievements are already among the top in the world, haven't you thought of developing in the direction of humanities?  Nolan¡¯s Dark Knight series also has profound humanistic connotations?  Your Nighthawks: Reflections was also very profound, why not continue that?  " "I have also thought about making some more profound movies. It's just a matter of schedule.  I originally had no intention of directing "Iron Man 3". Now I want to return to Chinese-language films and polish a few good Chinese-language films. I hope to show the world the splendid culture accumulated through China's five thousand years of history.  But, to be honest, there are too many things holding me back.  I want to supervise the Marvel Cinematic Universe project, and I want to supervise the production of the four major fantasy series. These two tasks are huge and can involve most of my energy.  I also need to set aside time to spend time with my family, which means that in the past few years, I may not have that much energy to polish a movie that is too profound.  " "I found that your achievements as a producer are also brilliant. First, "Slumdog Millionaire" won the best picture, and then "Life of Pi" was also the dazzling film at this Oscar. There is also a  Chinese-language films have become China's box office champion. Will you work more in production in the future?  " Shao Shuaijun thought for a while: "I'm not sure, but I prefer to make movies by myself.  " "You will install your own star on the Avenue of Stars in a few days, and you will also leave your handprints and footprints. Are you feeling happy now?  "    "certainly.  " "Iron Man 3" is about to be released. Do you have anything to say to the audience?  " Shao Shuaijun smiled and said: "Well, the rich will support the financial field, and the rich people will support the personal field?  " "Haha, I'm glad that Director Shao can be interviewed by Vanity Fair. It's a pleasure chatting with you. I don't dare to delay your dining practice anymore. Thank you.  "Bob Colacello smiled and stretched out his hand. Shao Shuaijun shook hands with him and then walked into the restaurant. I wanted to find someone to ask where Li Xiuxiu was, but there was no need. When I looked up, I saw a group of people.  It¡¯s not Li Xiuxiu who is being flattered like a moon. In the Hollywood entertainment industry, Li Xiuxiu¡¯s influence is definitely on the same level as that of the ¡°Hollywood Emperors¡± Weinstein brothers. Among them, Harvey has a wide network of contacts.  Weinstein is known as the "savior of modern movies". Li Xiuxiu is simply rich and has status. His company, Summit Entertainment, dominates the world, and Jiahe Entertainment has a monopoly on the Chinese entertainment industry. That star doesn't want to be flattered.  The same goes for Shao Shuaijun. As soon as he walked in, everyone gathered around him, saying hello and flattering others. Needless to say, those who were familiar with him immediately started chatting, while those who were not familiar with him also pretended to be familiar. ¡°Shao, welcome.  "California Governor Jerry Brown went out of his way and greeted Shao Shuaijun with a smile. Although Shao Shuaijun was too embarrassed not to come to the dinner in the past, in private, he and Shao Shuaijun never missed eating and drinking. Business and politics have always been connected. Peak  Entertainment needs the support of the California government, and Jerry Brown also needs the support of Summit Entertainment. The connection is very close. ¡°Jerry, when will dinner be served?  I'm already hungry.  "Shao Shuaijun said directly. "Right now, there are some celebrities being interviewed. Oh, by the way, let's go take a seat first. Director Li Yu seems to be very shy and doesn't talk much.  "As the best director at the Oscar, Li Yu, of course, sat at the governor's table like Shao Shuaijun. After taking their seats, Shao Shuaijun chatted with Li Yu. "How is it? How does it feel to win the best director?  " Li Yu smiled sullenly: "It's nothing, it's not like I haven't taken it yet.  "This is the second time that Li Yu won the best director. Shao Shuaijun was immediately envious and jealous: "What's wrong? I didn't win the best picture.  " "Even if I win the best picture, it's not me going up to speak. It's none of my business.  " "I" Shao Shuaijun was speechless: "If I win the best picture and I go up to speak, I will definitely mention you. You have lost one opportunity for exposure.  " "I don't need so many exposure opportunities. I am a director, not an actor.  " "Yes, I can't compete with you. By the way, the four major magic series, you don't have any ideas?  " Li Eucalyptus said with a smile: "I can make art films, but I'm a bit unsure about making commercial fantasy films.  Shao Shuaijun shook his head: "I am making this Four Magic series. Although I mainly focus on commercial movies, commercial movies after all cannot grasp the essence of many historical cultures."  We can make a few literary films to portray this history in a more profound way, what do you think?"If that's the case, I might consider it."  " "Okay, let's settle it like this. I'll ask the screenwriting department of Jiahe Entertainment to develop two literary film scripts for you.  ¡± While chatting, the interview soon ended, and everyone began to eat and drink. We continued eating until midnight, and then dispersed in twos and threes Time flew by, and soon it was March 1st, Shao Shuaijun¡¯s star award ceremony and handprint ceremony.  It¡¯s about to begin (To be continued.
