Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 597 - The Dust Settles
Looking across Europe, America and Asia, the British Academy Film Awards does one thing very well, and that is keeping the final winners of each award confidential.

The organizers are indeed able to achieve a level where everything remains a suspense unless the veil is lifted.

All the information and predictions before each awards ceremony have nothing to do with the official.

Therefore, the analysis of the popularity of the British Academy Film Awards has become a major event in the mainstream media in Europe and the United States.

But this year's British Academy Film Awards gave the media a slap in the face.

Among the four hottest films they selected, except for "The Shape of Water" which reaped a lot of technical awards that were like useless ones.

"Darkest Hour" and "I, Tonya" were completely beaten up by "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri".

Speaking of which, the way the British Academy Film Awards pie is divided is a bit biased.

The winner of this year's Best Supporting Actor once again surprised most people.

I originally thought that the British Academy Film Awards would be a little more concerned about face issues and give some sweet rewards to foreign works to shut up the media.

I didn’t expect that the British Academy Film Awards would simply regard all the shortlisted works as a foil to "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri".

Not even a single wool was taken away by the two films "I, Tonya" and "Darkest Hour", even though the latter was based on Prime Minister Churchill.

It is easy to understand why the British film industry looks down on "Darkest Hour".

Whenever a local production goes to the Oscars or Golden Globes to show off, the British film industry will give its blessing: Get lost.

The British Academy Film Awards' harsh treatment of "Darkest Hour" really surprised the media.

"Help me think of a thank-you speech quickly." Margot Robbie, who had changed her seat and sat next to Roberts, reached out and gently poked Chen Yu's right arm to interrupt his little sigh.

The British Academy Film Awards are about to enter their most exciting climax, presenting the Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Director and Best Film.

It is normal for Australians to move to the side of the Americans and seek help from the Chinese. In the British Isles, they are all bad guys who want to steal honor.

The Best Actress award presenters were two seniors, the 13th Bond girl Maud Adams and the 15th Bond girl Marie Addambo.

Chen Yu covered her lips and grumbled quietly, perhaps the only British films that can hold up the market on an international scale are the Bond series and the Harry Potter series.

"Do you want to apply to play the Bond girl?" The long introduction of these two seniors made Chen Yu feel that they were delaying the ceremony.

At this moment, Chen Yu just spoke without moving his mouth, teasing Margot Robbie who was pretending to be calm, Roberts who was trying hard to be a lady, and the American girl Saoirse Ronan.

Saoirse Ronan is an Irish girl born in New York in 1994. She is two years younger than Chen Yu and her whole family are fans of Chen Yu's boxing.

"I have a flat face and a small butt. The only thing I have left is my face. Mr. Bond doesn't think highly of me."

Roberts pursed her red lips, then raised her hand to cover her mouth and tilted her head slightly to answer Chen Yu. Then Roberts patted Robbie's cold hands twice to comfort him.

"This result is not fair to you, but we are powerless to change or overturn it." Chen Yu muttered in a low voice and reminded Robbie not to show his disappointment on his face.

In fact, Chen Yu was not the only one who wanted to cause trouble for the British Academy Film Awards, even Frances McDormand, who just won the title, thought so!

Although "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" became the biggest winner at this year's British Academy Film Awards, this work has offended too many colleagues in the industry.

When she received the Best Actress trophy, there were bursts of whistles from the audience, and it was obvious that some guests were not convinced.

To be honest, the fact that Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri could win so many awards tonight was a surprise to the crew, as many of them were not in their plans. The newly crowned Best Actress, Frances McDormand, quickly glanced at the complicated gazes of the guests and sighed.

The joy of winning the prize had been dissipated, and now she just wanted to leave here quickly.

She pursed her lips, forced a slight smile and raised her hand to pretend to wipe her eyes.

Ms. Francis simply thanked the creative team and crew of "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" before walking off the stage with a standard lady's curtsy.

This made the host Emma Watson feel confused and upset.

Because she was going to do her best to delay the ceremony, Emma couldn't help but curse violently in her heart but her delicate little face still had a gentle smile.

The subsequent Best Actor award was won by Gary Oldman, who played the ruthless Winston Churchill in "Darkest Hour".

He put so much effort and hard work into portraying Winston Churchill that Oldman gained so much weight before filming began that his health was in jeopardy.

"Darkest Hour" is an excellent work with great depth and scale.

However, the British Academy Film Awards no longer paid attention to this work just because it was clearly competing for the Oscars and Golden Globe Awards, which really disappointed the other crews on the scene.

In the end, the three major awards of the British Academy of Film Awards: Best Editing, Best Director and Best Picture were won by "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" alone.

"Darkest Hour" won the Oscars and Golden Globe Awards but was humiliated in its own backyard, which made Chen Yu realize the British people's sensitivity to political correctness.

American capital cannot film the great Prime Minister Winston Churchill, otherwise no matter how good it is, Britain will not recognize it!
In order to avoid unnecessary trivial matters, Chen Yu, under the cover and guidance of the Royal Opera House staff, took Director James and quietly left through the side door.

Chen Yu had to praise the organizers for their thoughtfulness. They respected the wishes of every guest.

There was no requirement for all the guests present to walk out of the main entrance with their heads held high and chests held high through the long corridor which was guarded by media reporters.

Most of my colleagues chose to take the initiative to be interviewed out of politeness.

However, domestic media including CCTV-6, Sina, Tencent, and Southern Metropolis Daily came to nothing as Chen Yu did not show up.

Fortunately, Sina was able to ask Dilraba Dilmurat to help save the situation.

Therefore, Sina reporters leisurely went to interview others to catch the attention, leaving the other companies speechless.

Chen Yu and others also did not attend the British Academy Film Awards celebration reception held at the Chinook Park Restaurant.

Director James, Emma Roberts and Margot Robbie took a polite turn and then rushed back to the apartment to meet Chen Yu.

These people and a group of assistants hurried to finish washing up, then took out all kinds of ingredients that had been prepared long ago and started frying, stir-frying, cooking, stewing and roasting.

Of course, the responsibility of cooking falls on Roberts and Margot, while Chen Yu and the assistants only help with the miscellaneous work of processing the ingredients in the early stages.

Director James grilled Tomahawk steaks and German pork sausages outdoors.

Roberts also invited American girl Saoirse Ronan to enjoy the dinner together. It is not often that you get the chance to sit at the same table with your idol.

Unfortunately, Saoirse said she was not feeling well and politely declined the opportunity. It seems that the girl still harbors resentment about the loss of the actress.

Chen Yu also plans to return to the United States tonight and then go to Bolivia with the crew to shoot the remaining action scenes.
