Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 735

Garfield's name sounded, and Garfield's performance in "Fireman" appeared on the screen.

From the beginning, they were high-spirited young people who were eager to contribute to society;

To the heroic firefighters who rushed into the Twin Towers;

Then, I watched my former colleagues become sick one by one, and I myself was gradually attacked by the disease.

Then to the poor people who blame others and are full of fear
Eventually, he no longer had any resentment and had become a middle-aged man who had been tortured by pain to the point that his will to survive was gradually weakened.

In just a few minutes, all of Garfield's wonderful scenes in the movie were shown.

Zhou Mo and others applauded Garfield as soon as his name was called out.

This applause is not only for celebration, but also for praising Bale.

In addition to the added bonus of Garfield's role as the "newcomer in the fire department", Garfield's acting skills also contributed a lot to his winning the award.

The process of faith being shattered, becoming full of complaints, and finally having no complaints at all and becoming completely numb was portrayed very well by Garfield.

Garfield himself had already flushed red in the face, and even had tears in his eyes.

"Hey, why are you crying? You should go up and receive the award with a smile on your face."

Zhou Mo patted Garfield on the shoulder and pushed him towards the podium.

A moment later, Garfield, standing on the podium, had regained control of his emotions.

Looking around the podium, he gave his acceptance speech.

"I am very honored... to hope... to be here..."

Zhou Mo and the other two were listening to Garfield's acceptance speech in the audience when he suddenly spoke up.

"I am sure that these groups will mention Emma's name in some way or another."

"I am sure of that, too."

"Me too."

Sure enough, Garfield changed the topic to himself without saying a word.

"There are always some people in life who are worth pursuing constantly..."

The combination of Garfield and Emma back then was known as the golden boy and girl in the circle.

So not only Zhou Mo and a few others, but almost everyone at the scene instantly thought of someone's name in their minds when they heard Garfield's words.

At the same time, the photographer was very cooperative and turned the camera to a certain place in the theater.

It’s a pity that I didn’t capture anything.

Emma was one of the award presenters at this year's Oscars.

So I'm not in the audience at this moment.

Zhou Mo, McConaughey, and Bale looked at the reaction on the scene, and all of them showed an expression of "See, I knew it", and pointed at Garfield on the stage.

Denzel always felt that some strange chemical reaction occurred since these three guys got together.

Especially like those hip-hop youths on the streets of America.

If we use Zhou’s language to describe it, it should be called... a second-rate person?

"You three are world-renowned public figures after all. Please pay attention to your image."

Zhou Mo waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter. Everyone is watching Garfield and the others now. No one will pay attention to us."

Bell: "Zhou is not afraid of these, so why should I be afraid?"

As per convention, McConaughey should have added something after the two finished speaking.

Who knew that after Bale talked for a while, there was still no movement in McConaughey's position.

Zhou Mo and Bell were stunned and turned to look at McConaughey, and found that this guy was sitting in his seat seriously, looking somewhere with a smile on his face.

There is a lens right there.

"grass."

"Thank you for the generous gift."

A moment later, Garfield came back.

"Happiness?" McConaughey asked first.

"happy."

"Where's the fun?"

"I'm happy everywhere." The smile on Garfield's face never stopped.

Zhou Mo changed the subject: "If you are happy, don't run around tonight, stay with the three of us and help deal with the others."

"Ah?" Garfield was stunned, and then said with some regret: "Okay then."

At the Oscars ceremony, Best Supporting Actor is the first award.

The Best Director award is fourth, and the Best Picture award is last.

"Firefighter" was shortlisted for these two awards.

As the award winners were announced one by one, the atmosphere on the scene gradually became tense.

What Zhou Mo wanted most, of course, was the Best Film Award.

After all, it is the most valuable one.

However, the highest value also means the most intense competition.

This year, there are nine films nominated for the Best Picture Award, not counting "Firefighters."

Among them, the one with the greatest possibility of winning awards is another May film "The Shape of Water", which tells the story of the wonderful love between Alyssa, a mute girl who was a low-level employee in a laboratory of May during the Cold War in the last century, and a mermaid used for experiments.

In its previous life, this movie won four awards in a row at this year's Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Score, and Best Art Direction, making it the biggest winner of that year's Oscars.

Not only that, when "The Shape of Water" was released in Venice last year, it won the Venice Golden Lion Award.

Therefore, before "Firefighters" was released, "The Shape of Water" was considered by many to be the biggest dark horse of the year.

It was not until the release of "Firefighters" that the historically significant film, the extremely correct script content, and the extremely powerful background allowed people in the film and television industry to transfer some of their recognition to "Firefighters".

Still, the four main actors in the series were a little nervous as the awards process edged closer to Best Director.

The performance of "The Shape of Water" was so good that many people would not even think that other movies had a chance to win the award.

"Zhou, do you think we can win the Best Picture Award?" McConaughey asked slowly.

"Who knows, but I think there's a good chance."

“How does it compare to The Shape of Water?”

"It should be bigger." Zhou Mo said calmly.

"So confident?!"

“That’s how confident I am.”

Zhou Mo nodded.

It's strange that you don't have confidence.

There was one thing he didn't tell the main actors.

In addition to the advantages mentioned above, "Firefighter" has another killer move against "The Shape of Water".

This ultimate move was not performed by Zhou Mo, but was the masterpiece of Achuan.

In its previous life, "Mercury Agent" was once suspected of infringement, and there were different opinions about the true creator of "The Shape of Water".

Eventually, after several years of legal battles, Guillermo was recognized as the film's true creator.

When Achuan was carrying out the operation, he dug up this matter and collected relevant evidence and information.

Therefore, "The Shape of Water" will definitely not be a rival to "The Fireman" this time.

The real opponents of "Firefighters" are actually the remaining eight movies except "The Shape of Water".

Just then, the winner of the Best Director award was announced on the podium.

"Best Director, Guillermo del Sol, The Shape of Water."
