Illiterate top class: three years of poor performance, become a superstar

Chapter 291 The unexpected winning result

"..."

There were more media reporters, the scene was less noisy, and the questions asked became more and more pointed.

: "Xu, we just interviewed the nominee Austin, and he is very confident about winning the award..."

Xu Nian said nonchalantly: "Why are you telling me this? Why don't you go and wish him a prize?"

: "Don't you have any desire to win prizes?"

Xu Nian: "Yes, but not many. I believe in the vision of the Oscar review committee."

: "Then do you think the film "Infernal Affairs" starring you has a chance to win an award?"

Xu Nian: "With all due respect, I fully believe in the professional vision of the Oscar review committee. They will definitely be able to comprehensively compare and select the best film!"

: "Are you saying that "Infernal Affairs" will definitely win the award?"

Xu Nian: "I didn't say that, but if you insist on thinking so, there's nothing I can do about it."

: "..."

Xu Nian's attitude is very clear. How you babble is your business and has no influence on me.

I just say whatever I think.

If you have to give me some dirty information, I don’t care.

Showing off is so fearless.

Not subtle at all.

After all... In fact, Xu Nian's current international popularity base is already very stable.

The overall popularity is actually at the global T1 or even T0.5 level.

After all, there are only two markets with real consumption potential in the world, one is North America and the other is China.

North America is mainly America and Maple Leaf Country.

Except for the time when he was filming a movie, he has been to the Maple Leaf Country every time he went to North America in the past, and he also has very stable (crazy) popularity there.

Fan consumption contributions in the two markets are also very stable, including but not limited to movie support, album support, and 'X' brand support.

For example, more than 40% of the overseas sales of the album "Five Hundred Years" came from the North American market.

It’s just that Xu Nian has not been to the European market, and there has not been any crazy scene there, so his reputation is slightly lower than that of global T0-level stars.

But it has definitely reached the T1 level.

Moreover, Xu Nian actually doesn’t have much thought about overseas markets. He can’t even resonate with the people in these places, let alone empathize with them, just...

It’s hard to talk about any overseas New Year fans.

However, even so, these media reporters from all over the world had no intention of letting Xu Nian go. They just changed the topic and asked questions.

: "Xu, can you tell us more about the new video you initiated?"

Xu Nian: "What needs to be said has been said. The film crew has opened an international certified account on Weibo. You can follow the progress of the film crew's release at any time."

: "There is news that your science fiction imagination is very brilliant and novel. What do you think of this?"

Xu Nian: "Like you, ask everywhere."

Meng Chao almost didn't know how to translate it. He knew that Mr. Xu was unrestrained in interviews, but he didn't expect that he would do this overseas.

This kind of overly colloquial Chinese is really difficult to translate into equivalent meaning.

Anyway, after he finished speaking, the media reporters at the scene fell silent for a moment.

: "..."

Overall, Xu Nian handled the curiosity of overseas media reporters very well.

And fully demonstrated his personal liveliness and liveliness.

Not only that, Mr. Xu also cooperated and created some gimmicks for media reporters to fully publicize the completion of KPIs.

It can be said that everyone is happy.

…………

After dealing with various reporters, Xu Nian entered the infield and met Dragon Movie Emperor who was waiting for him specially.

Actor Long is of course an invited contestant.

It is reported that this time the Oscars intend to award him a Lifetime Achievement Award.

This award is different in that the news will not be so secretive.

Xu Nian greeted him first: "Uncle Long."

"Okay, I've also made it out overseas, and I'm prosperous and at home like a fish in water." Actor Long joked with a smile.

"..."

The two exchanged a few words.

Finally, Xu Nian made a special inquiry: "Uncle Long, I heard that you are here to receive the award today?"

"Yes, the news has spread and it has been decided." Actor Long replied casually, "Lifetime Achievement Award, alas..."

"It's a pity."

Xu Nian really didn't know how to answer this. The Lifetime Achievement Award was the name of the domestic translator, but it was actually an honorary award.

It cannot be said that the gold content is not high, after all, only those who have made outstanding contributions to the film industry can get it.

But it cannot be denied that this award has a certain comforting nature.

If you only win the Oscar award without comparing it horizontally with other international awards, the gold content will indeed be slightly inferior to awards that require competition such as Best Actor and Best Actress.

However, generally speaking, after receiving this honorary award, there is basically no chance of winning the Best Actor and Actor again.

Although the Oscar is a relatively commercial award, and its artistic professionalism in the industry is not as good as Cannes, Berlin, and Venice, it is still very popular internationally.

Even in terms of public popularity, Oscar is unique.

Let's put it this way, because of the design of the rules for these awards, Xu Nian may never win them in this life.

For example, it must first be screened at the film festival to be eligible to participate.

The point is...Chinese-language film and television has actually won a lot of awards in this area, and there is no need for Xu Nian to interfere.

In the field of Chinese film and television, the focus of overseas expansion is market performance, not anything else.

At least what the upper levels need is clear, and it is known to a wider range of global people.

It is a broad output rather than a directional output.So from the beginning Xu Nian or Tianyue never considered sprinting to the three major international film festivals...

Seeing that Xu Nian was a little silent, Actor Long shook his head and laughed: "Haha, it's me who has negative energy."

"Don't worry about this. We are old, and the stage should belong to you young people."

Xu Nian then smiled and said: "Next time, I should have a chance to win the Oscar next time I run for it."

"Aren't you confident this time?" Movie Emperor Long asked curiously, "This isn't like your style."

In this regard, Xu Nian bluntly said: "If you are not familiar with the place, you will inevitably become familiar with it twice."

Hearing this, Actor Long couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his hand slightly: "I'm relieved now. I was worried that you would be frustrated."

"It doesn't matter, I don't care much about winning awards." Xu Nian replied with a smile.

Actor Long just said: "The main thing is that you have been going smoothly and smoothly."

"..."

The two chatted for a while and both felt relieved.

Best Actor Long was worried that Xu Nian would be hit by a setback at the Oscars. Xu Nian was actually a little worried that this lifetime achievement award would be given to Best Actor Long.

Apart from anything else, The Wandering Earth also pointed to the actor Long as the star~

…………

…………

At 8 p.m., [-] p.m. Eastern Time, the Oscars ceremony officially begins.

At the same time, it is broadcast in more than 200 regions and countries around the world through various platforms.

It immediately triggered a certain degree of heated discussion on the Internet.

After all, this time there is a bit of a topic.

It should be said or not, but it has a little bit to do with Xu. This guy is a serious traffic focus.

It is no longer limited to the domestic scope...

At the scene, Xu Nian wore a customized version of the Shu embroidery series to be launched by the 'X' brand, which fully demonstrated the compatibility of oriental charm and oriental faces.

When I first entered the venue, I don’t know how many people looked at me.

In terms of handsomeness, Mr. Xu has always been unique and stunning, able to make time look full of charm.

No kidding, okay.

Not to mention that he already has that special oriental charm, and when paired with Shu embroidery with this oriental background, it’s just killer.

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Nian’s appearance will further unify global aesthetics.

It will let more people around the world know that being handsome is handsome, regardless of whether you have an Eastern face or a Western face.

For example, when the camera on the stage suddenly passed over Xu Nian, viewers watching the live broadcast all over the world couldn't help but make comments:
"Wow!"

"Who is this, fuck me!"

"omg!"

"It has to be our Xu Nian. This is a small scene, so it's no surprise that he has become the focus."

"..."

After the inevitable opening remarks and a response process, the awards began.

There are also performances from time to time.

Soon, Best Actor Long and a few others went up to the podium, and Li Chengzheng and Xu Nian beside them introduced them in a low voice.

Without Meng Chao around, Li Cheng had to act as translator.

Fortunately, Li Cheng's English level is not bad, and he has both listening and speaking skills, but he has a slight accent.

After listening to Li Cheng's introduction, Xu Nianqi looked at the stage and said, "Is this the Lifetime Achievement Award?"

"Yes, this is an honorary award after all. It is ranked higher and not so grand." Li Cheng replied.

Xu Nian thought about it and asked: "What award should be placed at the end?"

"Best Picture."

Li Cheng replied.

"The second to last is Best Actress, and the third to last is Best Actor."

"..."

Although the awards process program has been released for a long time, Xu Nian has never seen it because it is in English.

Mainly he didn't bother to pay more attention.

I don't know how long it took, but Xu Nian suddenly noticed that the atmosphere at the scene had changed a lot, and then a light shone on him.

Without Li Cheng translating next to him, Xu Nian knew that it was finally time to award the Best Actor award.

Sure enough, five actors and masterpieces nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor appeared on the big screen.

It is not much different from the domestic awards process. They are introduced in this way and then the awarding guests announce the results.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it right now, there is no such familiar tone as Xu Nian anyway.

The light above his head also disappeared.

Obviously didn't win.

Xu Nian was not surprised at all. After all, Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui had been disappointed once before.

The original screenplay they were nominated for also didn't win.

He is very calm.

After one more award for Best Actress, it’s finally time for the final and most critical Best Film of the Year award.

The host on stage really exaggerated the atmosphere.

Then a total of ten beams of light appeared, followed by the inevitable cutscene process, and finally the award-winning guest came on stage to announce.

At this moment Xu Nian heard familiar words.

Sure enough, in the next second, Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui stood up almost at the same time, cheering and hugging.
