China Entertainment started from Nortel 2002

Chapter 229 prepared four acceptance speeches
I have to go over and film the potato planting scene from time to time.

Later, Jiang Wen had to come back to the base once or twice to reshoot a few scenes. The main reason was that the maturity period of potatoes was relatively long. It was impossible for the crew to really wait here for that long. Later, they would shoot on specific days.

"I am now the greatest botanist on the planet. According to the saying abroad a long time ago, if you plant plants everywhere, that will be your colony."

"So, now that I've colonized Mars, I'm the first, and Armstrong and all that are inferior."

Jiang Wen introduced Tudou proudly. Through continuous efforts these days, he has contacted the United Space Agency. He believes that with this success, the space agency will continue to increase its efforts to save him.

There's no way around it, he's the No. 1 person who grows plants on Mars, and he's even rarer than the giant panda.

With the Oscar date approaching, Li Mu gave the crew a few days off.

In a black luxury car, Li Mu and Liu Yifei were sitting together, both wearing expensive clothes designed by famous fashion designers.

Li Mu wore a black suit, while Liu Yifei wore a long black dress with sparkling jewelry on her neck and hands, making her look more elegant and charming.

As a major annual event in the world of film, the night of the Oscars attracts much attention.

The stars are already shining in front of the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, California, USA.

This year's Oscars are very popular. The world's number one and number two box office directors both have films in them, and this time it is Cameron who returns to this stage after 12 years.

12 years ago, James Cameron shouted on the Oscar podium: "I am the king of the world!"

This name is still fresh in my memory.

Not only movie channels are broadcasting live, but major domestic portals are also broadcasting the Oscars live with pictures, texts and videos.

No matter which website it is on, as soon as the live broadcast of pictures and text begins, the number of reads and replies will increase steadily.

"Damn, why haven't you started yet? What the hell is this scumbag doing? I'll go check out other websites!"

"I've been waiting for half a day!"

"How many awards do you think Li Mu can win?"

"Needless to say, I must have taken them all."

"The people upstairs are too naive. There is also "Avatar" this year. Do you think someone else is building it?"

"How many "Avatar" films can I get?"

"It's started. The video seems to be smooth. I'll slip away now. If it gets stuck, I'll come back!"

"."

At this time, in front of the red carpet of the Kodak Theater, Li Mu and Liu Yifei walked out of the car hand in hand. There was a burst of cheers and screams, as well as flashing lights and shutter sounds.

Hundreds of media on both sides frantically wasted film on Li Mu and Liu Yifei.

Duan Yihong and Zhou Xun were behind, also following closely.

Compared with other actresses moving forward bit by bit on the red carpet, the steps of Li Mu and the others were much more normal.

At this time, the filming of "Snowflake and the Secret Fan" had ended for the day, and Li Binbin was watching the live broadcast in his room.

There is also her number one rival, Zhou Xun.

However, Zhou Xun did not get nominated, but just went to walk on the red carpet. In Li Binbin's view, there was no threat and he was in a calm mood.

Moreover, half of the movie she is currently filming is funded by Hollywood, and she will be able to attend major international red carpets next year.

It is the wish of every film practitioner to be recognized by peers and win a statuette on the awards stage. However, in a hall of thousands of people, only a few dozen people are destined to win this honor, and the vast majority of people will become Accompanying guests, repeating the disappointment year after year.

After entering the hall, Li Mu led everyone directly to his seat. As for the people in the hall, some people were sitting waiting for the ceremony to begin, while others were gathered in small groups, seemingly chatting happily.

This is also a place to get to know people, but Li Mu doesn't need to take the initiative to get to know people now.

Theron was this year's award presenter, and Will Smith was one of this year's Best Actor nominees. They both came over to chat for a while.

Will Smith also took the opportunity to say a few words to Duan Yihong.

"Brother, do you want to come over and have a chat!" Will Smith invited. In the direction of his finger, several Best Actor nominees were gathered together.

Li Mu patted Duan Yihong on the shoulder. This Oscar nomination is equivalent to entering this circle. More exposure is not a bad thing for his acting career.

As for Li Mu, he went to visit the set of "District [-]".

As all the guests took their seats and the red carpet outside the venue ended, this year's Academy Awards ceremony officially began under the spotlight.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure to introduce to you actor, writer, musician, Emmy and Grammy Award winner, and one of the greatest artists in history, Mr. Steve Martin!"

"This is Alec Baldwin!"

The two hosts walked up to the stage and said something that caused everyone to chuckle. After all, Alec mentioned many titles when introducing Steve, but Steve only mentioned a name when introducing people!
This humorous point is not bad, at least the place is slowly starting to heat up.

As they have done in countless awards shows and comedy movies in the past, these two top American comedians play it naturally, bantering like old friends.

At the Oscars, everyone is often made fun of, especially the award winners. No one can escape.

This time we still start with the Best Supporting Actor award.

Slowly, more important awards began to be revealed.

Best Animated Feature Film Award, Best Original Song Award
Each of the two awards this year will introduce a film nominated for Best Picture, "District [-]."

"Is this how people who have not been nominated for awards feel when watching the awards ceremony? They feel relaxed." Zhou Xun spread his hands and his sitting posture began to change.

I almost feel like a big boss.

"Then please pray for us!"

"Do you believe in Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity, Catholicism, Hinduism?"

"Stop, stop, stop, we have no taboos. We believe in everything. We believe in a wide range of things. All you have to do is pray sincerely." Li Mu quickly stopped, wondering how this guy knows so much.

There was a lot of fun chatting between the few of them.

Next came the Best Original Screenplay Award, which was also the first Oscar award Li Mu received that year, seven years ago.

Robert Downey Jr. and Tina Fey jointly presented the award.

The crew all looked at the big screen. Although it was not a particularly big award, the more awards the better.

"Can Li Mu get this award?"

"It's hard to say. In fact, I'd rather not take it. I'll win more big prizes later!"

"You're quite greedy, just take whatever you can!"

Domestic viewers watching the video also watched this scene nervously.

Mainly because the two award presenters deliberately delayed the presentation and whetted everyone's appetite.

"The winner of the Best Original Screenplay Award is: "Drive My Car", Li Mu!"

Finally, Robert Downey Jr.'s voice echoed throughout the Kodak Theater, accompanied by a round of applause.

"A good start, congratulations to Director Li!"

"Amu, congratulations!"

Several people hurriedly sent their blessings, and Li Mu also pulled off his suit and walked to the award podium.

Cameron watched this scene and gave him warm applause. Li Mu only competed with him for the best director, and the other awards were staggered.

He is full of confidence that "Avatar" can sweep the Oscars. Winning three or four of the nine awards is not too much.

You know, this movie has already grossed US$25 billion at the global box office.

In subsequent awards, "Avatar" did win a few, including Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects and Best Art Direction.

In the middle of the performance, James Taylor sang "In My Life" on the stage!
End of show, next award, Best Foreign Language Film.

"Mysterious Eyes"-Argentina "Ayami"-Israel

"Sad Milk"-Peru
"White Ribbon"-Germany
"Drive My Car"-China
Pedro Almodóvar and Quentin Tarantino were still on stage, cracking jokes, but several crew members were glued to the envelopes in their hands.

Pedro Almodovar opened the envelope in front of everyone, opened the note, smiled at everyone, and revealed nothing.

The note was then handed to Quentin Tarantino.

"Best Foreign Language Film!" Quentin Tarantino said slowly, with a tone full of suspense, "This year's winner is-" He prolonged his tone, making it impossible to predict the next words.

"Read it quickly, I'm so anxious!"

"Brother, don't worry, although I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry now!"

""Drive My Car"-China!"

Quentin Tarantino's voice bursts out.

Li Mu and Liu Yifei were stunned for a moment, then stood up together and cheered.

The audience burst into applause and cheers came and went.

"Damn, I'm really good at it!"

"The first best foreign language film in the Mainland has been obtained!"

"Finally it's not exclusive to Treasure Island anymore. Zhang Yi and Brother Chen Kai missed it several times, but Li Mu got it back!"

"Awesome! Awesome!"

"."

Li Mu walked up to the awards podium as a representative and received the statuette from Quentin.

He stared at the little golden man for a while, then slowly said:

"Do I have a chance to use up all the acceptance speeches I prepared tonight? To be honest, I prepared four speeches! Yes, you are right, there is also Best Picture for District [-]!"

When Li Mu spoke, the people below applauded.

"This is a bit too much. I have prepared four acceptance speeches!"

"Hahaha, I will prepare as many nominations as possible. If you are capable, award them all to me!"

"Nima, I'm going to die laughing. Li Mu should be the host of the Oscar ceremony. He is much better than those two people!"

"Agree!"

The following thank you is all thank you.

"I finally got this little gold medal." Li Mu sat down and looked at the little gold medal for the best foreign language film, and suddenly felt a little emotional.

"This thing has failed too many times in the mainland, and I finally took one back!" Duan Yihong also observed.

"Stop watching, your Best Actor award is coming soon."

Li Mu reminded that clips from the best film "Avatar" are still being played.

For best actor, six actresses who have won Oscars stand in a row on the stage.

"Your award is a bit grand!"

This year's Oscars have also come up with many new tricks in order to regain their ratings.

If this is the case, for Best Actress, there will be six male actors who have won Oscars standing on the stage.

"I regret a little. Six handsome guys are standing in front of me. I get excited just thinking about it!" Zhou Xun had already begun to fantasize in his mind.

"Can't it be six old men? There are many old men among the best actors."

"Sissi, please take care of your Director Li. I haven't even fantasized for a few seconds before he broke it for me."

Liu Yifei thought for a while: "Actually, what A Mu said seems to be right!"

"."

Duan Yihong relaxed a little because of the banter from several people, but with the Oscar winner right in front of him, no one could remain calm.

However, it was still not revealed on the surface, but Li Mu saw that one of his hands was already holding it tightly under the stage.

Will Smith – “King Richard”

Javier Bardem – “The Riccardos”

Benedict Cumberbatch – "The Chronicles of Dog Hill"

Andrew Garfield – “Countdown”

Duan Yihong – "Drive My Car"

Several movie queens, each read a nomination.

The last six people announced in unison:
“Will Smith – ‘King Richard’”

Duan Yihong's tightly clenched hand suddenly relaxed and he clapped.

"It's okay, there will be another chance in the future!" Li Mu comforted him, just treat it as a familiar face for this nomination. Xiao Li has been nominated so many times, but he hasn't won it once.

These two things, actor and actress, are a bit mysterious.

Will Smith won Best Actor twice.

In his acceptance speech, he thanked Li Mu again.

"Thank you! Thank you! This is the second time I have won an Oscar. The last time I won an Oscar was with Lee's "The Pursuit of Happiness," and now he is the second highest-grossing director in the world."

At this time, the camera quickly showed Li Mu, and Li Mu could only wave to the camera.

"Li Mu is so popular in Hollywood!"

"Indeed, you can see it!"

"It's a pity Duan Yihong. I've seen that movie and he did a great job!"

"I haven't had time to watch it yet, but if it won the Best Foreign Language Film and was nominated for Best Actor, it's definitely not bad. We can't wait for it to be released on a large scale later!"

"."

The Best Actress award went to Sandra Bullock - "The Underbelly."

Next up is the award for Best Director.

This is the second time Li Mu has been nominated for this award. The competition for Best Director this time is a bit big.

With "Avatar", Cameron once again stood as the king of the world.

Kathryn Bigelow is coming in a big way with "The Hurt Locker", and is very popular for both Best Picture and Best Director.

Lee Daniels' "True Love" and Jason Reitman's "In the Clouds" should not be underestimated, and some judges favored Youjia.

At this time, everyone was waiting for Barbra Streisand to tear open the envelope and open the small piece of paper with the winning name.

Barbra Streisand looked at everyone and knew what everyone was expecting at this time. Without delay, she took out the small note from the envelope.

After reading the note, Barbra Streisand said directly:
"The Oscar winner for Best Director is: 'Kathryn Bigelow—The Hurt Locker!'"

"There's no need for this penultimate acceptance speech!" Li Mu laughed at himself when he saw Liu Yifei and others looking over.

Several people were worried that Li Mu was a little sad. As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.
