Chapter 698 Dreams come true

 "The winners of the 78th Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay are: Larry McMurtry and Diana Osana."

Scarlett's award also brought good luck to Dong Xi, who won the first OBU award in this year's Oscar campaign, Best Adapted Screenplay.

Although this honor has little to do with Dong Xi, it is still the collective honor of the crew.

And the best screenplay adaptation is not an inferior award, at least it is much better than the best editing.

Diana, who took the stage to receive the award on behalf of the audience, took the statuette from Scarlett and said the first thing she said: "Yes, Dong is also my hero."

The theater suddenly burst into applause and laughter. Just when everyone thought Diana was making fun of Scarlett, she said extremely seriously: "For this project, we went to Fox, DreamWorks, and New York.

line, but even big Hollywood can’t accommodate a film of this type.”

"In an almost desperate situation, Dong showed up. He just read the script, waved his hand, and expressed his willingness to fund and made countless efforts for the release and distribution of the film..."

The live broadcast camera switched to Dong Xi, who smiled and clapped with both hands.

From Diana's words, Dong Xi's image gradually became clearer. He was no longer an upstart from the East who smelled of copper, but a like-minded literary and artistic figure.

Despite the strong commercial nature of Hollywood, there are still many people who are obsessed with creation. A good reputation is a great help to the birth of "prefix".

If you want to establish a new company, reputation is sometimes more important than capital. After all, to attract talents, you must have something attractive.

As a foreign monk, in a strange environment, a good reputation is the starting point, and you can always knock down many people.

So far, among the 8 nominations, only the Best Adapted Screenplay has been recorded, while the ones next door already have three statuettes for Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, and Best Costume Design.

Zhang Xiaohua also pretended to be a conspicuous bag three times, stood up and exaggeratedly hugged her winning colleagues to congratulate her.

Although they failed to win a few awards, Dong Xi and others were not disappointed. They were just appetizers and were pursuing the final main course.

In the following awards, the main competitor won the best original screenplay, while the main competitor won the statuette for best soundtrack.

Both sides currently have two statuettes, and are temporarily tied.

In the acting category, they were shortlisted for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Supporting Actress. Dong Xi, Li Yu, and others were a little disappointed by the awards, but it was understandable.

The Best Supporting Actress went to Rachel Weisz in "The Movie", and the Best Supporting Actor went to George Clooney. Jake Gyllenhaal was not sad. After all, it was a big surprise for him to be nominated for an Oscar.

In contrast, Heath Ledger was a little angry and dissatisfied with his girlfriend for not winning the Best Supporting Actress.

Everyone knows that the best actor he nominated himself is just a running contestant. Regardless of his qualifications or acting skills, he does not stand out in any way.

If you really want to be selected as the Best Actor, that will be the darkest moment of the Oscars, so the resources spent on public relations are more inclined to Best Director and Best Picture.

Most of the ceremony had passed, but it was too compact and full of jokes. Tom Hanks, who was in charge of awarding the Best Director, appeared on stage with applause from the audience.

"I have worked with many great directors, and I know that all of them are weird..." The applause stopped, and Hanks spoke on the stage. He held the envelope in one hand, stared ahead, and calmly said "Ready"

joke.

"The Coen brothers are more focused on making screaming fat people in movies than on winning Oscars."

"Hitchcock liked to shoot blondes. He once said: Blondes are best suited to shoot murders. The bright red blood flowing from the snow-white skin contrasts with the shiny blond hair, how beautiful it is!"

"In comparison, Cameron's hobbies are much more bizarre. He likes to do scientific experiments on the set. Once he needed to complete an assignment given to him by the producer, "making a bunch of alien creatures move at will," he said.

Stop, just stop” requirement.

He found a bunch of fly larvae instead.

The amazing thing is that when the director said start, the larvae really started to move, and as soon as the director shouted "click", they immediately stopped squirming.

The producer was stunned and asked Cameron how he did it.

He said: "I connected low-voltage current to the larvae. When I called start, the electricity was turned on, and when I called stop, the electricity was turned off."

"I guess in the eyes of fly larvae, he is Satan!"

"Hahaha." A burst of laughter erupted from the scene. With Hanks' status, he can tease anyone.

"oK, let's take a look at the shortlist for Best Director."

Hanks looked sideways at the big screen and read: "Bennett Miller, Paul Haggis, George Clooney, Steven Spielberg and Lee Eun-hye."

Amid the applause of the entire audience, the five candidates appeared on the big screen, smiling or pretending to be cool as they faced the camera.

Hanks did not try to be mysterious. He opened the golden envelope containing the winner, glanced at the content, and raised his eyebrows: "The winner of the Oscar for Best Director is... Li Yu."

The moment he said "Ang", the entire Kodak Theater let out a "Wow" sound, and the audience burst into applause and cheers.

The first Chinese-American best director was born, and he was also the first Asian to win this award.

The protagonist of the live broadcast was already a jubilant crew. Everyone stood up and hugged Li Yu, patting his body desperately.

After whispering a few words to Dong Xi at the end, Li Yu walked towards the stage amid the congratulations of the audience.

At this moment, he is the king of the world.

"That's great." Dong Xi was almost the first one to stand up and cheer. Although he knew the result in advance, he was still very excited when the award actually came.

The two have very different personalities and ages, but they have become friends who talk about everything after working together on movies.

Now seeing that he is about to lift the statuette, Dong Xi feels even happier and more excited than when he won the award.

"I told you a long time ago that this guy will win an Oscar!" Dong Xi smiled and said to the producer James next to him.

James, who was equally happy, smiled and nodded, but he quickly retorted: "I said it earlier than you."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. As a producer, Li Yu's little gold medal was at least half of their credit.

And standing on the stage, after receiving the golden and heavy trophy from Hanks, facing the entire audience, Li Eucalyptus had mixed feelings.

He graduated from the Film Academy in 1984 with great ambition. By 1990, he had been idle at home for six years.

When his youngest son was born, he only had $43...

At this moment, what his wife said to him sounded in his mind:
Chapter completed!
