What to do if you become famous too fast

The best director is gone...

The best actor is gone...

It only won one award for Best Screenplay.

This result may be very satisfactory to others, but Xu Yuan and the others look unwilling.

After Wang Huan got the trophy and walked off the stage, he saw everyone's slightly depressed expressions. In the hearts of Xu Yuan and others, they always felt that only a best screenplay award was not worthy of "This Man From Earth".

Wang Huan smiled and said, "What? Are you still not satisfied?"

Xu Yuan nodded: "I think Director Wang should at least get a best director award, right?"

Wang Huan laughed: "You are talking nonsense. If there is still a chance of you getting the best actor, how can I get the best director for such a movie? In fact, "The Man From Earth" is actually a bit weird except for the script. , created a precedent for soft sci-fi, and there is nothing outstanding about other things, so this award is already the limit. This time I bring you to Cannes, the first is to see the world. The second is to let you make connections. You really want To win awards, next year I will take you to the Oscars to win, isn’t it just a few awards? Isn’t that easy?”

"puff!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a bearded man sitting next to Wang Huan burst into laughter: "Master Wang Huan, are you taking this too seriously?"

Chapter 0829 Next year I'll let you bring back an actor

Hearing the sudden laughter of the bearded man.

Wang Huan was taken aback, he turned his head to look at the other party: "Who are you?"

The bearded man coughed and stretched out his hand: "Master Wang Huan, hello. I'm Mei Weituo."

Mayvato?

do not know!

Wang Huan really didn't know this bearded man who suddenly spoke to him. He didn't know much about the film industry before.I haven't seen many international movies, and I don't even know these movie stars and directors.

But Xu Yuan next to him looked at Mei Weituo with adoring eyes.

Wang Huan was stunned: "Xu Yuan, is this bearded man famous?"

Xu Yuan nodded hastily: "Mei Wei Tuo, a famous American director. He is only a level behind the top directors in the world. He has directed three big-budget films with a box office of more than [-] million U.S. dollars in his life. Three years ago Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director. A real big shot in the film industry."

Fuck, he's really a boss.

Wang Huan shook hands with the other party, and said strangely in English: "Director Mei Weituo, can you understand Huaxia?"

Mei Weituo said indifferently: "I have learned it before, but I only understand it a little bit, but I can't explain it when asked."

Wang Huan asked, "Why do you think what I just said was a joke?"

Meiwei Tuo exaggerated: "Master Wang Huan, are you telling the truth? Allow me to say something ugly. Although Master Wang Huan's piano and singing skills are very good, even your novel "Harry Potter" "My daughter also likes it very much. But the movie "The Man From Earth" is still a little bit interesting. What really attracts others is its huge profit ratio and its unique imagination. I feel bad. If the Cannes Film Festival hadn’t always been friendly to Chinese films, I don’t think this film would even be eligible for the nomination.”

"Of course, I'm not questioning you. What I want to say is that making a movie is not as simple as you imagined. Especially the highest honor film award like Oscar, it is even more difficult to win. Like me, I am immersed in the director The industry has only won one nomination for best director in its entire life. But just one nomination is already a remarkable achievement in the eyes of others. Even the most outstanding director and actor today is not sure. Your own film can win an Oscar. So you said that the Oscar is easy, of course I think you are joking."

Wang Huan smiled and listened to the bearded man's words.

In fact, there was no contempt or discrimination in Meiwei Tuo's words, they were purely telling the truth.

So Wang Huan didn't feel much disgust, but said with interest: "Director Mei Weituo, you are right."

It was affirmed by Wang Huan.

The bearded Meiwei Tuo became even more excited. He didn't even look at the host on the stage, and began to talk freely: "And the judges of the Oscars are much more picky than the judges of Cannes. In the eyes of these judges, the level of the box office can't be counted at all." As their award criteria, many people even reject high-gross movies. That is to say, these judges are a group of unpredictable guys, and it is simply too difficult for you to win their likes. Therefore, there are countless directors and screenwriters every year. Do your best to guess the preferences of the judges, and shoot movies specifically for the Oscars, just to be nominated for an award. But even so, most people still return without success. In addition, the Oscars have strict standards. Even if a movie wins many Award nominations. But basically only one award in the end. For example: if your film won the award for best director, then there will be no best picture, and there will be no best actor. So you just casually It is almost impossible to win several Oscars. So now, do you still think it is easy to win Oscars?"

Wang Huan nodded seriously: "Well, it's very difficult."

However, when he heard Mei Weituo's words, he began to think carefully about the deep meaning.

Because in Wang Huan's opinion, sooner or later he will take Xu Yuan and the others to compete for the Oscar.For Xu Yuan and the others to become real international movie stars, they must compete for Oscars, which is an indispensable process.It has nothing to do with worshiping foreigners, unless Huaxia can have a higher-end movie award than the Oscars, but this is impossible!

Oscar, in the hearts of almost all directors and actors in the world today, is a dream.

The pursuit of countless people throughout their lives is for the title of Best Director or Best Actor Oscar, because it represents the supreme honor in the film industry.

For example, Meiwei Tuo, even if he has only been nominated for an Oscar for Best Director, he can get the admiring eyes of Xu Yuan and He Lang.From this point, we can see how attractive the Oscar awards are to actors!

However, at this time, Wang Huan remembered a crucial question!

The Oscars are only selected for films made in the United States!

Foreign films can only participate in the competition for the best foreign language film!

In other words, if it is not an American movie, Wang Huan would not be able to participate in the selection of the best director, best protagonist and other awards.

He is going to participate in the Oscars, there are only two ways.

First: take over American movies.

Second: let American companies invest in the films they shoot.

However, Wang Huan was unwilling to accept these two methods.

Taking on an American film?

In his own system, there are countless good movies that have gone through the test of the market, so why not shoot other people's movies?He did it out of his mind.

What's more, even if he wanted to shoot, with his current reputation in the global director circle, it is estimated that few people would be willing to give him a good script.

Because don't worry!

As for letting American companies invest in their own movies?

This is even more impossible!

When Wang Huan prepares to compete for the Oscars, he must carefully select the films in the system, and they must not be bad in any aspect. Of course, it is impossible for him to let American companies lie down and make money for a film that is destined to be a big box office hit!

But besides these two methods, what else can be done?

unless……

Find a person in the United States and secretly cross Chen Cang.

Thinking of this, Wang Huan's eyes suddenly lit up. He thought of Chris, um... besides Gao Zeyu, his second brainless fan!And he's a fan of the entertainment tycoon.

"Perhaps, at that time, Chris can think of a way!"

Wang Huan suddenly became cheerful in his heart.

He forgot that this was the awards ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, so he slapped Xu Yuan on the shoulder and shouted, "That's it! Xu Yuan, next year I will take you to the Oscars, and let you bring back a best actor!"

Mevieto: "???"
