    Hollywood, when Shao Yingxiong finally came back again, the air here made him feel a little uncomfortable.  Anyone who has traveled far away knows that when you are in a foreign country, especially the moment you get off the train or plane, a strange feeling that never belongs to you will hit your face, such as strange streets, strange people, strange words, etc.  It stands to reason that Shao Yingxiong has been in Hollywood for a while, and everything here should not make him feel acclimatized or unfamiliar. However, these years at home have completely made him cunning, and I am afraid that familiar food  We won't be able to eat it in a short time, and people familiar with it may not be able to see it in a short time. Thinking of the unpalatable fast food here, Shao Yingxiong felt like he was about to die.  "Boss." A familiar black driver appeared there. Ever since Shao Yingxiong passed the English test, the driver Lao Zhou has returned to China, and he has always used this black guy.  Shao Yingxiong smiled and handed over the gift. When he walked out of the airport, he rushed all the way to the MGM headquarters.  Harry Sloan, who had been waiting in the MGM office for a long time, saw Shao Yingxiong in a suit arriving. The hug that he had not seen for a long time between old friends appeared. At the moment of letting go, Harry -  Sloan said: "Oh my god, you are such a self-disciplined person, but you actually have fat!" Harry Sloan was very incredible. He would rather believe that there are ghosts in the world than believe that Shao Yingxiong can't control his mouth.  Shao Yingxiong responded without paying much attention: "Heroes' Tomb, Gentle Township." "Is it resolved?" Harry Sloan asked indifferently.  "It's stilla little bit short, but I can wait." Shao Yingxiong thought back to his time at home as if thinking about it, and said after coming back to his senses: "Tell me, what's going on now?" "Oh." Harry-S  Long suddenly woke up.  He quickly entered the normal state: "That's it. At present, we still don't know exactly how many votes you think you have, but the finalists are basically confirmed. Since you are back, I can't decide whether to use a lobbying company.  . So. These things must be dealt with when you come back." Nodding, Shao Yingxiong continued to ask: "Who are the potential competitors this year?" "Matthew McDonald, "Dallas Buyers Club"  Dunn's "Nebraska", Christian Bale's "American Hustle", Leonardo DiCaprio's "The Wolf of Wall Street"" Shao Yingxiong laughed when he heard this. There should be another one in history.  "Twelve Years a Slave."  But this movie has been filmed by himself a year in advance, which means that the people mentioned by Harry Sloan are all outstanding people who have appeared in history, and they are also the best actors at the 86th Oscar.  Among the finalists for the lead role, Matthew Macdonald took home the statuette, in "Dallas Buyers Club."  He tortured himself until he was no longer human-like and as thin as a skeleton. This fierceness alone could satisfy many judges.  Some people say that the Oscars like to award statuettes to actors who spoil themselves in movies. In fact, Shao Yingxiong has also figured out this issue through this period of time. This is just a misinformation. Actresses spoiling themselves are equivalent to abandoning what stars care about most.  appearance.  An actor can give up the glamorous appearance of a star and focus on his performance. Isn't this perseverance worthy of recognition?  Actors want to torture themselves crazy in order to gain weight, lose weight, keep fit, and improve their acting skills, if they don't get a statuette.  How sad would it be?  Why is Leonardo taking more and more movies that are far away from his handsome appearance?  It's very simple. Nowadays, when the judges cast their votes, in addition to counting your acting skills, the most important criterion iswhat you gave up for the performance.  It¡¯s not that you will definitely win if you act ugly, but at a level acting level, the more you give up, the more you give. When your contribution is seen in the eyes of others, this is called giving. How much does it cost to film?  It's just as useless if others don't see your suffering. This is what we call giving and gaining.  Fighting with Matthew McDonald?  Shao Yingxiong smiled bitterly and asked: "Harry, do people in the industry have anything to say about this movie?" After he returned to China, he could still grasp the public opinion on the Internet in a timely manner, but what did the people in the industry say?  He didn't know at all, after all, there was no contact.  Harry Sloan smiled: "This is the real reason why I asked you to come back!" "You know? People in the industry gave you praise for your performance in this movie. To be honest, I really liked this movie.  I took it in, but I didn¡¯t find any performance elements, including your interjections, your huffing tone, the rhythm of your indirect speaking, and the way you suddenly jumped in when you suddenly thought of a topic. It¡¯s just like in life.  Perhaps this is why the Screen Actors Guild praises you so much. They may regard this dv that you apologized to as a complete practical acting. ?"Isn't it?" Shao Yingxiong's eyes widened. He was nominated for an Oscar. He had never thought about being nominated for an Oscar with "Shao Yingxiong's Mask". The high box office can also be said to be the scandal effect and the fan economy.  , but it is a bit incomprehensible to be nominated for an Oscar, not to mention that it has been well received by the industry, but also for its acting skills.  When Shao Yingxiong heard this, he cursed: "All these years have been in vain." "Haha Shao, it's useless to force some things. When you don't force it, it will come back to you." Harry-S  Long looked into his eyes and said: "Shao, is it time for you to decide something? After all, if this delay continues, we will be a few steps better than others at night." When Shao Yingxiong turned his head and looked over, Shao Yingxiong saw Harry.  -Sloan's expression: "Are you also particularly interested in giving it a try?" "Yes." Harry Sloan said without hiding anything: "No matter the subject matter of "12 Years a Slave" last time,  The acting skills and the historical resonance make me feel that I am bound to win the Oscar. To be honest, winning the Cannes and Golden Globe Awards makes me have a strong desire for the Oscar, not for you, but for MGM. But, we lose.  Sorry, it lost to "Life of Pi" and didn't win the best picture. It didn't even win the best screenplay. A lot of money was wasted. This makes me feel useless. " "  Shao, I want revenge! " Harry Sloan was as firm as a nail. He was already standing where he should be, waiting for Shao Yingxiong to knock it down.  "Do it!" Harry Sloan waved his fist excitedly, grabbed the phone and said, "I've been waiting for this day!" "Hey, old Punk, I heard that your gambling luck is good, I think, you  If you go to Las Vegas and play, you will definitely win a lot of money." Shao Yingxiong waited for Harry Sloan to chat for a few more words before asking: "What Las Vegas?" "  Shao, Hollywood's rules do not allow lobbying companies to help non-long-term clients, but they will not stop people from lobbying companies from playing two hands in places where gambling is legal, and they did not stop me from playing two hands here.  Separately, if I lose 13 million, Punk Lobby Company can win back 10 million from the casino. He is lucky and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Then with this money, they can "obligately" help us  Operation, just because he likes your acting skills, never because of anything else. When the time comes, whoever wants to investigate can do whatever they want, unless he can ban gambling in Las Vegas, otherwise" "There are policies from above, and there are policies from below.  Countermeasures." Shao Yingxiong answered.  "That's right." Shao Yingxiong said again: "It's a pity that the casino made two million for no reason." "In the United States, it is the easiest to make money in casinos. Even if they help people make false accounts, they don't have to be afraid of any risks. They  How do you know the connection between the two groups of gamblers? What¡¯s more, not everyone who makes false accounts will be caught. It¡¯s easier to make money by opening a casino now than by robbing a bank.¡± Shao Yingxiong shrugged, not knowing that he could still make money.  What do you mean, everyone thinks that the United States is very good and developed, but how many people know how many people in the United States are like moths, cheating the country's money all day long?  How many people are making false accounts and making certain things appear fair through special channels?  This is really not as dark as crows in the world, but there is a dark side in every corner. Fortunately, most areas in this world are still bright.  From this day on, Shao Yingxiong became busy without fun. He was so busy that he was distracted. The days when he was once the most energetic now made Shao Yingxiong a little irritable.  He began to complain about these breathless lives after being busy, complaining that he was as busy as a live donkey, walking around all day long, sometimes having to eat lunch three times, and eating from 11 o'clock at noon.  to one o'clock in the afternoon.  It was said that he was eating, but in fact, when he was eating, the person accompanying the lobbying company kept saying that due to his celebrity status, it was difficult for him to speak too much, and it was difficult for him to interact with too many judges, so he could only stay at a distance.  Looking at, nodding at others in the same restaurant, that's all.  Hollywood's regulations are becoming more and more strict, stipulating that artists are not allowed to have private contact with Oscar judges at the beginning of the awards season. However, Shao Yingxiong appeared in a restaurant with the lobbying company and the judges at the same time. He nodded without direct contact, but stepped on it.  There was no foul play on the line, after all, he didn't say anything to the judges.  At this time, the connections that Shao Yingxiong had accumulated over the past two years played a vital role. Many judges who were familiar with him could get it done with just a few words. Some judges who didn't like Shao Yingxiong at all would not waste their efforts at all.  The most difficult thing is how to win over these centrists, how to persuade them, how to show their sincerity and respect them. This is where lobbying companies must exist.  In short, ??Nothing is simple.  (To be continued. (.))
