Chapter 622: Miss Sisters Guest

This year's Oscars fall on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and this year is also a small year, so it didn't attract much attention in China.

This year, Cheng Yuan spent the New Year with his wife at ease, and he was grateful to the platform for inviting him to commentate on the Oscars ceremony.

This year, "Birdman" lived up to expectations and won four awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay and Best Cinematography, becoming the biggest winner at this year's Oscars.

"The Grand Budapest Hotel" also won four awards, but it was far less valuable than "Birdman". Wes Anderson unfortunately lost.

Cheng Lingfeng still gained a lot of money that night. She defeated Harvey Weinstein head-on and gave Eddie Redmayne the throne of actor. After Colin Firth, a major film company once again made its own British movie.

A friend launched an Oscar winner.

His direct film "Big Hero 6" won the Best Animated Feature Film Award.

This is the first time a major animation company has won an Oscar.

This animated film will be released in China on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year.

"If it weren't for winning the Oscar to boost the box office," Cheng Yu'an said unforgivingly while flipping through the reports at home, "only a ghost would be willing to spend money to buy this crappy trophy."

According to data provided by Cheng Lingfeng, the total public relations expenses for the two films "The Theory of Everything" and "Big Bucks" exceeded 20 million U.S. dollars, the highest amount spent by a major film company since its bid for the Olympics.

"Everything is increasing in price. Holding a public relations reception is now 20 to 30% more expensive than before."

"It's not like the British don't give money." Liu Yifei brought a glass of water to Cheng Yu'an with a big belly.

"It's only three to five million, and we won't be responsible for the majority of it." A British cultural fund that a major film company often cooperates with will also give money. A sum will be given during the filming of the film, and a sum will be given when it is announced and released.

When doing public relations, I will give another amount and it will be counted as sponsorship and I will not participate in the splitting of accounts.

"Is it really that expensive to promote a film to the Oscars?" Liu Yifei took the report and looked at it. She has worked as a producer and can understand the report.

Even though she was mentally prepared, when she saw the public relations expenses for two movies, she still felt that it was too extravagant.

"Isn't this considered bribery?"

"What are you talking about! Who paid the bribe!" How could Cheng Yu'an admit that he paid the bribe? "The college clearly stated in black and white that it is called public relations, and it is not shabby to spend money to do things."

At the end, she teased Liu Yifei: "You give me 20 million US dollars, and I will buy you an Oscar-winning actress... This is a bit suspense... I can get you an Oscar-winning supporting actress."

"Is this okay?" Liu Yifei did not blame Cheng Yu'an for spending money to buy the prize, but was surprised that the prize was clearly marked with a price.

"Why can't this work? This is the unspoken rule of the Oscars. I haven't told you yet. A grand prize of 20 million. Do you have money? I will give you the entire Best Supporting Actress award next year and the year after that. Then you will be the best supporting actress in the country."

The first person."

Should I say it or not, Liu Yifei is really moved!

20 million US dollars, which is just over 100 million, is what Liu Yifei can afford.

If you can spend 20 million US dollars to win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, she will be in China...

"Forget it, I won't spend this money." It's not that Liu Yifei doesn't want the award, but once she learned that the award was "bought" with money, she felt a little unmotivated and unmotivated.

As the year goes by, except for the student parties who are still on winter vacation, the number of office workers in the cinema is gradually decreasing.

The competition that lasted for more than ten days during the Spring Festival finally decided the winner.

The champion is actually Wang Jing's "Macau 2". As of the tenth day of the 28th, "Macau 2" has received a total box office of 650 million, followed by "The Lion" in second place with 595 million.

The former's performance was not very good in the past few days, but then it quickly overtook and surged all the way, first surpassing "Twenty Again", and then killing "The Lion", firmly sitting on the championship throne.

"Twenty Again" ranked third in the Spring Festival period, with a very small gap between "The Lion" and 566 million. It may overtake it at any time.

Uncle Long is really old.

The Sino-French co-production "Wolf Totem" had a reported price of 452 million. This film claimed to have an investment of 300 million. This box office figure was so strong in the second half that it reached 700 million. Water had to be added to buy some box office, and it was destined to lose everything.

After the New Year, Cheng Yu'an asked Liu Yifei to have time to go out and walk more.

"I don't know who I got my geeky personality from. Doesn't your gym also offer pregnancy classes? Don't just sit at home and do it all the time. Talk to other expectant mothers when you have time."

Cheng Yuan was worried that she would suffer from depression before giving birth alone at home.

Liu Yifei's so-called stay-at-home approach does not mean that she does not leave the house. Her activities range within the community and she goes out for a walk every day.

"There are several pregnant expectant mothers in our community, and I have become familiar with them all." Due to Liu Yifei's popularity, many wives in the community want to get to know her.

But we have said more than once that Liu Yifei is a warm-hearted person with a cold heart. This stubborn nature makes her and the ladies in the community only maintain basic politeness, not much intimacy, and only exchange pregnancy experiences.

On the contrary, I hang out frequently with several celebrity neighbors in the community.

But she had filming and announcements to make, so she didn't have much time to pay attention to her.

However, after the new year, the activities of major celebrities have also come to an end, and many people will choose to take a break.

Among them are two big flowers, Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbing.

The former successfully finished filming "The Death of Romance" during the Chinese New Year and is resting at home.

The performance of the latter's "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demon" during the Spring Festival was sluggish. Li Bingbing is the oldest of the four actors. In the past two years, she obviously felt that there were a lot less film appointments. She didn't care at the moment and decided to take a break before going out to look for opportunities.

There is an unspoken rule in the circle that top people will not meet each other.

Each top star has his own circle behind him, and they rarely meet on the same stage. Although Datang Shixian and Tong Liya were both remote before, the company would not easily let any two people leave the country at the same time in order to ensure their respective exposure.

But today was different. Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbing unexpectedly came to Cheng Yuan's house to have afternoon tea with Liu Yifei.

Zhang Ziyi arrived first, and Liu Yifei couldn't chase away the guests, and it was hard to tell Li Bingbing that Li Bingbing would come to the house as a guest today, so he invited her in.

Zhang Ziyi brought a jar of good honey to Liu Yifei: "I know you don't lack these, but it's just a thought. Pregnant women drinking some honey is good for their health."

I don’t know how much bird’s nests and honey there are at home, but Liu Yifei still smiled and accepted the gifts: "Who said there is no shortage? I just finished drinking the ones at home a few days ago, and I was thinking of buying some more, so you gave them to me. The one who is filming at my house is still there

Okay, how do you know how to take care of a pregnant woman?"

Aunt Zhao was preparing tea and snacks, smiling as she listened to Liu Yifei complaining about her husband.

Zhang Ziyi smiled and said: "Men are lacking in this aspect."

She and Teacher Wang are almost there, but they haven't officially announced it yet.

"how are things?"

"It's quite stable, but the fetal movements haven't come yet. I asked the doctor, and the doctor said that fetal movements normally occur at 5 months, and it's normal for a week or two later. He told me not to worry too much." Liu Yifei said, "When are you and Teacher Wang going to start?"

What to do? It’s almost done.”

Zhang Ziyi nodded and told Liu Yifei in advance: "It's almost the same. I'm already 36. If I don't have a baby, I'm afraid my health won't be able to handle it later. You'll be fine. You're 28, which is a good age to have a baby."

"What's the matter? My mother still said I was born late."

"Like my mother, she kept urging me, saying that I would stop menstruating if I didn't give birth."

Zhang Ziyi's words made Liu Yifei and Aunt Zhao beside her burst into laughter.

While the two were talking, the doorbell rang.
