January 22nd, the crew of "Beauty and Original Sin".
"Cut!" Carlos Zivkovic checked the last scene again and again. After watching it for more than ten minutes, he said with a look of reluctance: "I declare that "Beauty and Original Sin" has been completed.
Got it!"
The entire crew, of course, cheered.
The one who felt the most deeply about this was none other than Carlos Zivkovic. He said, "This is the most relaxing film I have ever filmed, but it is also the film that I... feel has the best shooting experience. I
I should be happy, but I just can’t laugh—"
Xia Yu didn't say much, just said: "Every director has his own way of filming. Suitability is the most important thing - in fact, as long as you shoot well, it won't be a big problem!"
The two did not get too entangled on this issue. Carlos Zivkovic asked: "Do you want to join in the post-editing and production of "Beauty and Original Sin"?"
Xia Yu thought for a while and said: "I know how to do this part of China. After all, I know more about China's review issues... I will leave the rest to you. I think you will do better than me!"
"Leaving today?"
"Yes, the flight is this afternoon - you know, Chinese New Year is here!"
"...Oh, yes!"
In the afternoon, after packing their bags, Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling left this beautiful seaside town without looking back.
*
After returning to the imperial capital from Italy, Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling both stayed in Zhuang Ling, never leaving their homes.
There's nothing I can do about it. The Italian meals, Turkish meals, and pure meat feasts in the past three months have almost made Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling vomit!
In addition, during this period of shooting, in order to be able to complete better, I was also very tired mentally - I wanted to take a good rest for two days.
However, even if Xia Yu was silent, the Internet was still very lively. First of all, "Thieves" canceled its participation in the Berlin Film Festival and was later criticized.
Another big entertainment news is coming!
On January 23, the shortlist for the 94th Academy Awards was announced——
The whole network was shocked, and even the global film and television circles were focused on this shortlist!
Many awards and many films have not been released in China...the review process is blocked and the restrictions are different, but several of these films have directly ignited the global film industry and beyond, including the Chinese film industry!
Nine films are nominated for best picture, three of which are "Aversia Hatcher", "The Aesthetics of Death", and "Mia";
Five films were shortlisted for Best Director, including three: "Aversia Hatcher", Xia Yu, "The Aesthetics of Death", Carlos Zivkovic, "The Protagonist Mia";

…
This list immediately caused a sensation!
Especially "The Aesthetics of Death" from Carlos Zivkovic was nominated for eight major awards, and "Afsia Hatcher" was nominated for six major awards!
Among them, Xia Yu was definitely nominated for Best Actress, but no one expected that Yu Junhao was also nominated for Best Actor. There was no way, not because he didn't have the ability, but because of his international influence, it was a bit difficult.
But he was also shortlisted!
The most important thing is not these two points, but that Xia Yu was nominated for best director for "Aversia Hatcher"!
This is unusual.
This is definitely rare in Hollywood, should it be the second person in so many years?
The first one is Gu Zhao!
Internationally, major online social portals are booming.
[Are the Academy Awards occupied by Eastern actors? Forget Xia Yu, who is this Yu Junhao?]
[OMG! This is crazy - "Aesthetics of Death" got so many nominations!]
[Has the Oscar trend changed?]
[I think it’s actually pretty good? I’ve seen all these movies, and they’re all very good – I just think that if they meet the application, it’s outrageous that they couldn’t be shortlisted and didn’t get nominated!]
In China, the same is true, even more exaggerated.
[Is this the first time in the past few years that a Chinese actor or actress has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor and Actor?]
[Ouch...we are still together, Yu Bao and Lao Yu, these two really make us look good!]
As for the protagonist, Yu Junhao and Xia Yu don’t know. I heard that he recently met with director Xu Wei? Are you planning to collaborate on another film?
Needless to say, director Xu Wei's skills are still very profound, and he is also unique in his exploration of Chinese historical films!
Xia Yu was still huddled in the manor, taking advantage of Mr. Zhuang's work at Yanhuang Future Technology to accompany Teacher Yong Xia leisurely, tidy up the manor, and clean up - Teacher Yong Xia loves to be clean, and she cleans constantly, mainly for hygiene.
Dead corner.
Zhuang Ling is a bit more hardworking. He needs to stay up late and use his brain a lot - to deal with the issue of the filming location of "Devil's Letter". After the new year, he will go to the filming location, Seattle, as soon as possible to arrange everything!
After all, there will be about three days left for the Academy Awards in the second half of the month, and "Devil's Letters" will be included in the lineup at the end of the month.
All in all, all kinds of things are in full swing...
On the 24th, Dai Chengbi and Xie Ran all acted in tacit agreement.
One sent Dai Jia over, the other sent Xie Ziang, and the quiet manor suddenly became lively.
Dai Chengbi is the great sage who can't control the family, it's too noisy, Xie Ran wants to live a world of two with Tao Tang - the older one is sent to the manor, the younger one is sent to Xie's family, and the other is sent to Tao's family, that's called one
"Evenly distributed"!
Xia Yu's relaxed and leisurely days have come to an end - what to do? I can only take care of my son and daughter!
One is six or seven years old, the other is three years old... Although they are both very smart, but fortunately they are quite well-behaved, but they have a hundred thousand reasons why you can't just deal with it. If you have to deal with a small thing, you can't do it.
From astronomy to geography to historical allusions!
Zhuang Ling and Teacher Yong Xia looked on happily, "Well, you are the only godmother who has this ability. If you don't take care of the baby, it will be all in vain!"

And throughout December and January, there are other things, such as the postponement of the release of "The Hunger Games 2", and there will be one movie every year from now on.
