    Chapter 355 The 62nd Oscars As Bali Diller said, Spielberg will not refuse.  "Saving Private Ryan" is indeed a heartwarming movie.  "Why doesn't Mr. Zhang direct this film himself? War scenes are what Mr. Zhang is good at." Spielberg looked at Zhang Yi and asked.  "Haha, when I make a movie, it's not about whether I'm good at it, but whether I'm interested in it. I really don't have much interest in this movie. And the one who can make it well is undoubtedly Mr. Spielberg."  Zhang Yi smiled and said.  When Spielberg heard this, he nodded.  He can naturally understand that Zhang Yi is not only a screenwriter, director, but also the boss of a film company, and more importantly, he is also a super rich man himself.  For Zhang Yi, the movie he makes is not based on what he is suitable for, but whether he is interested in it.  If you are interested in something, you can still shoot it even if it doesn't win awards, doesn't make money, or even if you get scolded a lot.  If you are not interested in something, even if it is a movie that has gained both word-of-mouth and box office success, you may not shoot it.  Of course, Zhang Yi was interested in "Forrest Gump" because he didn't completely know that he could make money and win awards.  But Zhang Yi probably won¡¯t be interested in such a movie anymore.  "How much do you plan to invest in this movie?" Spielberg accepted the film, so he naturally wanted to know what the film's shooting budget was.  "Haha. Mr. Spielberg may not be used to cooperating with me. If it were Mr. Cameron, he wouldn't ask." Zhang Yi smiled and then said, "To make my movie, it's not how much I invest, but  It¡¯s how much you need!¡± ¡°Seventy million, maybe more.¡± Spielberg thought for a moment, then looked at Zhang Yi.  "No problem." Zhang Yi nodded.  The original investment was only this amount.  However, Zhang Yi knows that there will probably be more after the photo is taken.  ¡°I don¡¯t think that director would want to work with you again after working with Mr. Zhang.¡± Spielberg smiled and said.  Invest as much as the director says is the budget.  There is no director who doesn¡¯t like such an investor.  However, Spielberg naturally knew that Zhang Yi actually had an idea in mind.  He is not a victim.  "Who does Mr. Zhang think is suitable to play the leading role?" Spielberg asked immediately.  "Who does Mr. Spielberg think?" Zhang Yi smiled.  Instead of answering, he asked.  "Tom Hanks!" Spielberg said immediately.  "Haha, there is a saying in China that all heroes think alike." Zhang Yi said with a smile, "I, Mr. Balidile, think so too." "Well! I will implement this matter as soon as possible. I guess,  A few days later, Tom Hanks' net worth will be different," Spielberg said with a smile.  "Oh? Mr. Spielberg is so optimistic about him?" Zhang Yi naturally heard the meaning of Spielberg's words.  "Movies like Mr. Zhang's are not very competitive. There is not much suspense at this Oscar." Spielberg said immediately.  "If I don't award many awards to your movie "Forrest Gump," I guess no one will agree." "Haha!" Zhang Yi smiled and said nothing more.  It is no secret that Zhang Yi arrived in the United States.  Still, he's the same as ever.  Rarely appears in public.  Although Zhang Yi has not appeared in public, news related to him has been reported by the media from time to time.  And when a report pointed out that Zhang Yi will cooperate with two great directors, Lucas and Spielberg.  It still caused a huge sensation.  With detailed investigation, everyone knows that Lucas will direct the sequel to "The Mummy".  The story is set in China for decades.  Spielberg will direct a war-type movie, and its starring role is still a favorite for the Oscar for Best Actor.  Both movies were written by Zhang Yi.  Filmed and produced by Jiying Film Company.  Zhang Yi's screenwriting ability is naturally self-evident, and he has won two Oscars for Best Screenplay.  Of course, one is the original screenplay award, and the other is the adapted screenplay award.  With both awards in hand, it is naturally even more powerful.  In the global box office list, not to mention the top five, but the top ten, perhaps only Spielberg and Lucas can compete with Zhang Yi.  Now that the three are working together, who else can stop them.  Some time ago, Jiying Film Company and Columbia Pictures were at loggerheads.  In order to block Columbia Pictures' "Godzilla", Jiying Film Company has invested in "Independence Day", although it is not as high as 70 to 80 million.  But now, it is reported that two films worth nearly 100 million yuan have been invested in succession.Shocked many people.  Perhaps only people like Zhang Yi dare to invest in big productions one after another without any scruples.  March 26th is the 62nd Oscars.  This year¡¯s Oscars are highly anticipated.  Especially in Southeast Asia and other places, the expectations are higher than in North America.  ¡°A movie shot by a Chinese, although the content of the movie is a typical American movie, after all, the movie was produced by him.  He is also a screenwriter, a director, and the boss of a production company.  This is the highest achievement ever achieved by a Chinese in Hollywood.  Even if he doesn't win the award, he will become an unsurpassed legend.  Of course, in the eyes of everyone, Zhang Yi may be the only one who can surpass him.  "Are you really going to walk the red carpet alone?" Balidile smiled and said, "The organizing committee asked you if you have a female companion. It is obvious that they want to arrange one for you." "Although Xiao Min did not come to the United States because of something, but  Forget it about arranging a female companion." Zhang Yi waved his hand, then looked at Bali Dile, and said, "If you want to find a female companion, don't come with me, that's fine." "You are the center of attention now, no one can do it.  Your female companion will definitely become the focus of the media when she walks on the red carpet." Balidile smiled and said, "But if it were a male, it would definitely be overshadowed by your light. However, this is suitable for me who is low-key.  " "Are you considered low-key?" Zhang Yi smiled and said nothing more.  When Zhang Yi and Bali Diller walked to the red carpet, they immediately caused a commotion.  Zhang Yi is now well known to everyone, especially his outfit, which has been imitated by countless people.  What's more, how many Chinese faces are there at this Oscar?  "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang! Your "Forrest Gump" has received thirteen nominations. How many trophies do you think you can win?" a reporter asked loudly.  Zhang Yi smiled and said: "I don't know how much I can get, but I naturally hope that the more the better." "Mr. Zhang, among the thirteen nominations, which award do you care about the most, Best Picture?  Or the best director?" a reporter asked again.  "Haha. I care about every award." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Well, you took what I said out of context and said that I threatened to win all the awards! This is just a wish.  "Mr. Zhang has already won the Best Screenplay Award twice, including the Best Adapted Screenplay award. Do you still care about winning the Best Adapted Screenplay Award this time? After all, you already won this award last year?"  "A reporter said again, with some excitement in his words.  Zhang Yi listened to the somewhat convoluted words, but he also understood the meaning of the words, and then smiled and said: "It is also an honor to win again. I naturally hope to win the Best Adapted Screenplay Award again." Zhang Yi answered a few questions  After asking a question, he waved his hand and immediately went inside.  "Well, Mr. Hanks, why do you look a little nervous?" Zhang Yi said to Tom Hanks with a smile.  "Forrest Gump" creator Ziran Bai arranged to sit together.  The award ceremony hadn't even started yet, but Zhang Yi saw that Tom Hanks' face was stiff, and he was obviously a little nervous.  "Mr. Zhang is not nervous at all?" Tom Hanks looked at Zhang Yi in surprise. In his opinion, he was the most nervous person here.  Moreover, he was nominated for several awards, including Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director, Best Picture, and even Best Sound.  "If it's yours, you can't run away. If it's not yours, it's useless to be nervous." Zhang Yi smiled and said.  "We can't control Mr. Zhang's state of mind. In fact, we all understand these things, we just can't control ourselves and get nervous." Tom Hanks said.  He was nominated last time, but missed the Oscar. Now he is nominated again, and it is still a hit. How can he not be nervous?  Oscar winner, this is the honor that all actors dream of.  (To be continued)
