Chapter [-] The Chinese on the Oscars

Zhang Yi didn't have any friendship with He Gambling King, and the invitation to the wedding was just out of politeness.After all, Hong Kong and Macau are not far away.He Gambling King's status in Macau is extremely lofty, so it would be inappropriate not to invite him.

Of course, it is one thing to invite, but another to come or not.It's just that Zhang Yi didn't expect He Duwang to come in person.

He Gambling King is undoubtedly a legendary figure. Of course, his legend is still somewhat different from the current Zhang Yi.

Before Zhang Yi had time to find him, he found him and took the opportunity to find him, and Zhang Yi could guess the purpose of his coming.Wanting to come and looking for him is the same purpose.

"Thank you, Mr. He, for coming to my Zhang Yi's wedding. Please forgive me for being negligent!" Zhang Yi clapped his hands and said with a smile when he saw He Gambling King.

He Duwang is not young, but he is full of energy.Seeing Zhang Yi coming in, he didn't hold back, but got up and smiled and said to Zhang Yi, "Where! Where! Mr. Zhang thinks of me if he invites me. How can I not come. Originally I am also looking for Mr. Zhang for something, but I am afraid that it will affect Mr. Zhang's wedding, so I plan to visit him again in the future."

"Hehe, Mr. He is polite. Although Xiao Min and I are newlyweds, after all we have been together for more than ten years, we are considered old couples. Mr. He has something to do with me, how can we talk about it now?"

"I'm looking for Mr. Zhang, actually for one thing?" He Gambler said.

"Oh? What?" Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"The small aircraft carrier that Mr. Zhang bought in Russia! Although all the military equipment inside has been dismantled, the hull is huge." Gambling King He looked at Zhang Yi and said, "I heard that Mr. Zhang bought him for the purpose of taking pictures. a movie?"

"Indeed!" Zhang Yi nodded and said immediately.

"Has Mr. Zhang thought about what the ship is going to do after the movie is finished? It's impossible to use it as a decoration. It's also impossible to convert it into a passenger ship or a freighter?" He Gambler said immediately.

"Hehe, what's Mr. He's suggestion?" Zhang Yi said with a smile.Sure enough, I came here for this matter.

"Instead of leaving the movie empty after the filming, why don't you and I cooperate to convert it into a gambling ship. I believe that with the hull of the small aircraft carrier itself and the gimmicks, it will definitely be able to build the world's largest and most luxurious casino." He Gambler said with a smile .He couldn't see anything from Zhang Yi's face, but he was sure that Zhang Yi would not refuse.

"We can talk about this!" Zhang Yi smiled.Said.

"The specific matter, how about leaving it to the people below?" He Gambler smiled and said, "I don't know when your movie will start shooting and when will it be finished?"

"The ship is still being refitted, so I don't know the exact process, and when the movie will start shooting and when it will finish. I'm not sure either. I can't say for sure about this matter. I guess it will take two or three years." Zhang Yi thought I want to say.

"The future is long, this matter is not urgent." He Gambler smiled.Said.

The cooperation intention has been determined, and the purpose of He Gambler's trip has been achieved.As for the details, neither he nor Zhang Yi needed to ask.Because, this thing is a win-win thing.The amount of benefit distribution is irrelevant to the two of them.

The connection of interests is the most important thing.

Zhang Yi's influence in Hong Kong is unparalleled.And He Gambler has the same influence in Macau.If the interests of the two are linked together, then the influence of the two will increase with each other.

Of course, this is only one of the reasons, and another important reason is that gambling on boats is really profitable.

Zhang Yi's wedding was well-known in the world, and countless media even interviewed those famous celebrities who attended Zhang Yi's wedding, specifically talking about Zhang Yi's wedding.

This matter did not gradually subside until more than half a month later, after the Oscar nomination list came out.And for the past half month, Zhang Yi has been on the island, even if the guests who attended his wedding were gone, he, Zhou Huimin and his family were all on the island, living a leisurely life.

As for this Oscar nomination, Zhang Yi's "Inception" is naturally extremely dazzling.The nominations include eight Oscar nominations including Best Director, Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay, Best Vision, Best Sound Effects, Best Sound Cutting, and Best Cinematography.

Of course, this is just a nomination, and many awards are not popular, especially the best film and best director, but the biggest competitor is also a film produced by Zhang Yi's Jiying Film Company-"Schindler list!

"Schindler's List" was nominated for [-] awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.

There is no doubt that this year's Oscars, regardless of the outcome, Jiying Films is undoubtedly the biggest winner with these two films.

"Schindler's List" can be said to be facilitated by Zhang Yi.Moreover, it gave Spielberg great help.

The film company that rejected this film at the beginning regretted it a bit after the release of "Schindler's List", which had a global box office of more than 3 million U.S. dollars.Who would have thought that this non-commercial film could achieve such a high box office.

Who would have thought?Of course it was Zhang Yi.As soon as the film's box office was released, everyone was amazed at Zhang Yi's grasp of the market.

But now, "Schindler's List" has been nominated for twelve Oscars, which directly caused the executives of the film company to be furious. The executives who refused Spielberg to leave to find Jiying Film Company directly let him be an asshole.

Although Hollywood pays attention to business, it does not mean that any film company does not value awards.Box office and awards are indispensable for a film company.

Zhang Yi's "Inception" won eight Oscar nominations, which is even more shocking than the Oscar nominations for "Forrest Gump", especially for Chinese.

Because the main creators of this movie are all Chinese from the foreground to the backstage.This is a real Chinese movie.And the best proof is that "Inception" is among the Oscar nominations for Best Foreign Language Film!

This film is undoubtedly the most dazzling discourse film.Whether it's at the box office or in awards.

Of course, "Jurassic Park" also won several Oscars at the beginning, but the director is Chinese and the starring is Chinese, but there are many more Western actors than Chinese actors.It is not a Chinese film at all.What's more, the real protagonist in it is the dinosaur.

But "Inception" is different.

In 94, the 66th Oscar was held on March 21 at the Los Angeles Music Center.

And Zhang Yi didn't return to Hong Kong until mid-March.This time at the Oscars, Zhang Yi knows how important an award "Schindler's List" and "Inception" wants to get when they meet "Schindler's List", and it is estimated that it is unlikely.But he still felt involved.

Not only did he want to participate, but he also brought the main creators of "Inception" to participate.He will bring Chinese filmmakers to show their faces on the red carpet of the Oscars. (To be continued..)
