The Heart of Beauty [Entertainment Circle]

Chapter 197 Oscar Nominations

"Minari" was officially released in January.In the first week of its release, it became the highest box office in South Korea, which is something that even the director Zheng Lishuo did not expect.In addition, the box office of "Minari" in the United States has also exceeded his expectations.

The dilemma of independent films has always been whether they are well-received or not. Sometimes if the director’s ideas are a little more niche, they may not be well-received or not. The success of "Minari" is obviously very rare.

During the promotional period of the film, Dong Youjing and Steven Yuan appeared on many talk show talk shows, and the hosts were very interested in their behind-the-scenes process of filming the film.

"I heard that director Zheng Lishuo was a little hesitant when casting the film, is that true?" the host looked at Dong Youjing and asked.

Steven Yuan answered the question for her, "Because Youjing is so beautiful."

"Is it a mistake to be beautiful?" The host pretended to be puzzled.

Steven Yeun said: "The character of Monica was originally an ordinary Korean woman. She worked on the farm with her husband and checked the sex of the chicks. Can you imagine a woman as glamorous as Dong Youjing Sitting at a desk every day watching chick ass?"

The host nodded, "Indeed, this is too unrealistic."

"Then why did the director change his mind?"

Only then did Dong Youjing speak, "Director Zheng Lishuo said that he had watched my "Alice in the Honest Country" and thought that I might be suitable for this role, so he sent the script to my agency. After watching it, I was very impressed. Interested, I took the initiative to invite him out for a cup of coffee."

"It seems that your coffeechat is very successful."

"Coffeechat" is a very common social activity, especially in the workplace.When many people are looking for a job, they have made an appointment with others while drinking coffee and chatting about things. Thinking of their own experiences, the audience present laughed.

Dong Youjing nodded, "Of course."

……

The host himself is a talk show actor, and he made it very easy to chat, so Dong Youjing also said some interesting things on the set, such as what Yin Ruzhen said to her when they had dinner together.

This is also the first time that Dong Youjing expressed her thoughts on marriage on the show - she does not plan to get married.

The host was very surprised by this. He could see that Dong Youjing didn't dislike marriage because he was young, but that he really didn't have any longing for marriage.

Dong Youjing said with a smile: "There are many people who think like me. It doesn't matter whether you get married or not, as long as you live happily."

After the show was broadcast, her words resonated with many young people, but it was her fans who were the happiest.

[It would be best for You Jing not to get married, I can't imagine her getting married with any man at all. 】

[I think it's wise not to get married. There were a few artist couples who made a lot of noise when they divorced, and it also affected their image. 】

[The ex-boyfriends are disappointing, none of them can keep Miss Youjing's heart.So choose me next, sister! 】

There are also some discordant comments on the Internet, thinking that Dong Youjing treats feelings too hastily.They also took out her love history, thinking that she had failed other people's feelings.

However, these remarks did not get the support of the public, and even the fans of Dong Youjing's ex-boyfriends sneered at it.If Dong Youjing is playing with other people's feelings, who is their idol?Do you want to catch a fool who is being played with?What's more, Dong Youjing's exes would still think of her well after they broke up, and no one said anything bad about her. Doesn't that mean something?

The unfriendly voice was quickly silenced, and the word-of-mouth of "Minari" gradually fermented, and it received wide acclaim both in Korea and abroad.As the film won the Best Foreign Language Film at the Golden Globe Awards, everyone's expectations for it have gradually increased.

Eight nominations!

On the day when the Oscar nomination list is announced, the media are all prepared early, and no one wants to miss important news.They all expected that "Minari" would be nominated, but no one expected that this film would receive eight nominations in one fell swoop, including not only awards such as best picture and best director, but also awards for leading actors and actresses and supporting actresses. acting awards.

This is the first time a Korean has been nominated for an Academy Award, and it is also the first time a Korean actress has been nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress.

Dong Youjing really created the history of Korean movies this time.

She was originally one of the best among the younger generation of Korean actresses. This time she was nominated for an Oscar, which can be said to have added a lot of color to her actual performance.

As soon as the news came out, the Korean Internet suddenly boiled.Even the general public who usually don't pay much attention to artists have heard about it.Dong Youjing started to dominate the hot posts and searches on the forum again. Almost everyone was talking about her and "Minari". Instead, the fans were worried that everyone would kill them, so they posted online to analyze the possibility of Dong Youjing winning the award. Slim, I hope everyone will not put too much pressure on her.

In fact, fans are worrying too much.Everyone knows how difficult it is to win an Oscar winner or actress. Some very famous European and American actors have accompanied them time and time again. Dong Youjing is unlikely to win the award for the first time.But the nomination alone is enough for others to look up to.

[Laughing, some people were still talking about whether Dong Youjing would get married or not. They were really petty. Now they are nominated for Oscars. 】

[Dong Youjing's fans are too sober, she is the only actress in Korea now, it doesn't matter if her achievements are even higher at this age. 】

[I fell into the pit purely because of my appearance. After I fell in love with Youjing, I found out that she is so powerful...]

[Before the Golden Globe Awards, "Midnight Season [-]" and "Minari" were nominated in the TV and film categories respectively. I really have to lament Dong Youjing's vision for choosing works. She plays whatever is popular. 】

[The main thing is that Dong Youjing's acting skills have improved every time. It is one thing to be able to pick a good script, and another is to be able to support a complex role. 】

Dong Youjing's entry for Oscar nomination has also become a hot search on China's Weibo. Naturally, the marketing accounts are unwilling to let go of this popularity, and carry the hot posts on Korean websites one after another.Netizens who didn't know her very well clicked into the entry, but the ones that made them unable to help leaving comments at first glance were all those microblogs with photos.

[Fuck, it's so beautiful! 】

[Not only is she beautiful but also powerful, why didn't I know her earlier. 】

Even the high-definition raw pictures taken by European and American media are still very good. Dong Youjing's face first won her the approval of many passers-by.

After learning about her status and achievements in Chungmuro, South Korea, Dong Youjing attracted a lot of fans.

To use Korean praise style, it is: [It is so amazing that ants passing by will be amazed! 】

……

The UAA company is very excited about this nomination. Although the possibility of winning is unlikely, it is an Oscar.Compared with domestic awards in South Korea, the Oscars are a major event that is watched almost all over the world.

The company began to communicate with the luxury brands that Dongyoujing cooperated with on the choice of dresses in advance. The Oscar red carpet is a very important opportunity for exposure, both for Dongyoujing and the brand.

So between participating in various itineraries, Dong Youjing flew to Paris again, this time to try on the dress.

The styling team assigned by UAA also went with her, and matched Dong Youjing with the red carpet and a few outfits that she might wear in the afterparty.

Dong Youjing put on a long sequined mermaid dress, the background color is silver, it will show a blue-purple polarized light under the light, and the shimmering appearance really looks like a mermaid's fishtail.

The stylist couldn't help being stunned when she saw her coming out of the dressing room.

"Sometimes I wonder if you are a real person, You Jing." The stylist sighed after a long time.

Dong Youjing brushed her long hair behind her shoulders, and replied with a smile, "The way you compliment me is becoming more and more proficient."

"This is not a compliment, it's my sincere words."

The stylist came to her side and helped her arrange her hair, "I can make you a curly hair style at that time, so that you will look more like a mermaid."

He took two steps back and looked at Dong Youjing's whole body from the mirror.

"It feels a little empty around the neck, and it's only perfect with a diamond necklace."

The dress naturally needs jewelry, especially for a beauty like Dong Youjing. The stylist picked up the brand's new product book from the side and looked through it, trying to find a suitable set of jewelry to match this dress, but he still couldn't find the most satisfactory one. .

The stylist was not originally a perfectionist, but after seeing Dong Youjing in this dress, he never wanted to compromise with just a necklace.

"Fortunately, there is still time. I will definitely find you a suitable set of jewelry." The stylist said seriously.

"Actually, I think this is very good." Dong Youjing bent her lips, but the stylist shook her head and insisted on her decision.

Standing by the side, Li Maoren asked to translate the content of their conversation, and after hearing the stylist's thoughts, he also agreed.

"After all, this is the first time to be shortlisted for an Oscar, and it is not an exaggeration to pay attention to the styling."

He also said the same, Dong Youjing naturally had no objection.

The stylist spent a long time looking for the right jewelry for her, but perhaps because he was too discerning and picky, the only set he was looking for had just been snapped up by a collector.

If it's a brand or a fashion figure, he can still use his contacts, but for this low-key collector, the stylist is not so much.

The stylist had no choice but to give up, but fortunately he had a second choice.However, just when he was about to contact another brand, someone approached him and told him not to worry about jewelry.

"You said that your boss can send you that set of jewelry. May I ask who is your boss...?" Although the stylist was tempted, he still had to ask everything about Dong Youjing.

The assistant who called smiled, "You told Ms. Dong Youjing that it was Mr. Jin, and she knew it."
