Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 398 Global Report, Training Disciples

In the end, whether Chen and Zhang won the award was no longer the key issue.

The conflicting opinions among everyone and the various different views on the issue are the main axis of the problem.

The Oscars have become a conversation starter.

But relatively speaking, outside the United States, the situation is better and public opinion is not that complicated.

Some authoritative media in Europe, South America and Australia have successively reported the news about the new Oscars.

The overwhelming success of Chinese works was a surprise to them, and it would bring a sense of freshness to the audience, so the coverage was quite intense.

As for Asia, not to mention that although the Oscars have a strong regional attribute, it is ultimately one of the most well-known film and television awards on the planet.

Previously, Li An was the only Asian to win the Oscar for Best Director, and now there are two more.

Lu Zhong is the first Asian actress to win an Oscar.

Therefore, no matter how jealous Japan and South Korea were, they spared no effort in reporting this incident.

In their view, this is an honor for Asians.

Under such circumstances, Chen Linfeng's international status, especially as a director, soared rapidly.

When talking about the great film directors in Asia, his name must be mentioned.

As for Zhang Yimou, he entered the master realm one step earlier.

The bad thing about Chen Linfeng is that he is too young. Is there any 20-year-old master in the world?

However, things are relative, and being young has its advantages.

Chen Linfeng is a very famous actor and writer himself, and with the halo of being an Oscar-winning director, he has become the most famous star.

From preliminary observations, its international reputation is no worse than that of Van Long during its heyday.

Domestically, "Sunset" once again appeared on the news broadcast.

Because there are quite a lot of people to introduce this time, the duration has been extended to one and a half minutes. Zhang Yimou, Chen Linfeng, and Lu Zhong are all the key subjects.

Poor Sissi was ignored once again.

Excluding official media reports other than the News Broadcast, reports on Li An have increased accordingly.

He is called one of the top three directors in the country.

Obviously, this is a comparison with Li An to set off Zhang Yimou and Chen Linfeng.

You know, although Li An had a good reputation and status before, official public opinion was actually intentionally or unintentionally ignoring his existence.

Because he is not from the mainland, but his achievements surpass those of mainland directors, it would be awkward to promote him, so it is better to say less.

However, it is different this time. Now that there are two directors who can surpass him in hard honors, there is no need to hide it anymore.

I just don’t know whether all this extra publicity is good or bad for Li An himself.

Throughout this entire process, Chen Linfeng's fans were having a great time as if it were Chinese New Year, and their presence could be seen everywhere on social media platforms.

Liu Xixi's fans also followed suit to release their emotions. After all, our goddess also deserves half of the credit.

Fans of other stars turned a blind eye to this and completely lay low.

There is no way. The momentum is not right and we cannot win the battle.

There was also some noise.

I don't know if they are real fans or not, but some people said that Zhang Yimou should not have been in the movie Sunset, otherwise he would have become the number one director in China and even Asia.

Soon, Chen Linfeng's true fans came out in large numbers to suppress these voices:

We Fengshen are not the kind of people who would destroy bridges after crossing them. Without Director Zhang’s participation in "Sunset", there would never have been such a brilliant achievement. We achieved mutual success together, and there was no such thing as one leading anyone.

In fact, this was the tone that Chen Linfeng had set long ago, and one must not have an inflated mentality.

The fans have already reached a consensus.

Unexpectedly, such a group of people really appeared, so they were suppressed decisively.

……

In Hollywood, Chen Linfeng was not in a hurry to return to China. He first finished the work on "Infinite World".

The filming is basically finished.

At most, if there are any minor problems in the later stage, we can reshoot.

The next focus was editing, and Chen Linfeng followed Bruckheimer into the editing room.

The Russo brothers will of course be involved in the editing process, but they do not have the final say and can only make suggestions.

Because of the Oscar, Chen Linfeng's voice has greatly increased, and he has actually surpassed the Russo brothers.

However, they had discussed the plot of "Infinite World" many times before and there were not many objections or disputes.

While Chen Linfeng was supervising the editing, he would also appear on some programs and participate in various TV interviews.

It's a rare opportunity to win an Oscar. Taking advantage of this wave of popularity, he must make another splash and leave a deeper impression in the hearts of Americans.

But after all, the races and nationalities are different, so we can only retain a few impressions.

It is difficult to gain further support like Japan or South Korea.

Don’t even think about receiving wholehearted support like in China.

But even so, this one-sided and partial support does have its significance.

In recent years, few people in the country have criticized Chen Linfeng.

A big part of the reason is that he is always able to "expand his territory" abroad.

This behavior itself is in line with the emotional inclination and silent support of the entire Chinese people.

Even though some people in China don't like him, they try to restrain themselves and not provoke him because he is bringing glory to the country and showing the presence of Chinese people.

Of course the main reason is that they can't be provoked.

These interviews after the Oscars were not as harmonious as before.

In addition to topics related to film and television, many reporters have begun to ask many sharp questions, such as "human rights in China", "Chinese democracy", "what is going on here", etc.

In his conversation, he also hoped that he could devote himself to the "civilized world" and not stick to his wrong ways.

Chen Linfeng tried his best to brush it off and didn't talk too much about this topic.

How else can we talk? As soon as he speaks his mind, his contempt for them will be exposed. We still need to make money from them, so it's better to stay away for the time being.

I just talked about the Asian community in the United States and said a few words to help fight for their rights, in order to consolidate the basic base here.

In addition, you should not say bad things about the country, especially some black spots mentioned by the other party.

Apart from the environmental issues, everything else is ridiculous, full of lofty fantasies, without any substance at all. It's obvious that they have been fooled by the Strategic Propaganda Bureau.

Even with environmental issues, China has been doing better and better in later generations, so there is no need for him to say more.

If you really talk about the key issues, I can still blush, help and say a few words of blame, but they are all topics about democracy and oppression, so what is there to say?

This kind of "avoiding the topic" made some people begin to think that he was ignorant, and some dissatisfied voices also arose on the Internet.

After all, you don't lick our beacon of humanity, and you don't criticize your own bad country. What on earth do you want to do?
Obviously, Chen Linfeng's development in Hollywood has begun to affect some people, and these sharp voices are a reflection of this.

He had hardly been in Hollywood before, and it was obvious at first glance that he was an outsider, but he could also write scripts, which meant he was a producer who brought in benefits.

Now that film and television companies are also here, they are competing for Oscar awards, and their films are about to be released in North American theaters, so they are pure competitors.

Therefore, some means were put forward.

Chen Linfeng was mentally prepared for this. Such things will happen more and more frequently in the future and are inevitable.

But as long as he can still bring profits to big Hollywood companies, such voices against him can be suppressed within a small range and will not cause too much impact.

That's enough.

On March 3, Chen Linfeng found Lu Yang.

"Xiao Lu, many of the students who came to study with you this time were led by you. What do you think of them?"

Lu Yang was prepared for this and said without hesitation, "The students are very hardworking and have a solid grasp of knowledge. I think that's good."

"Which ones stand out among them?" Chen Linfeng asked.

"Guo Fan is one, Shen Ao is one, and there is another one called Song Yi."

Lu Yang began to introduce their respective performances.

"Guo Fan prefers special effects and pays close attention to this aspect. When he was on the crew, he was very good at organizing people..."

"Shen Ao is relatively good at teaching acting skills, and he showed good results when helping to guide the group actors..."

"Song Yi is highly regarded by the crew's artistic director, who thinks he is very talented and does other work very well..."

Chen Linfeng was not surprised by the first two, after all, they had made a name for themselves in their previous lives.

Needless to say, Guo Fan's top-notch qualifications have been proven by later generations.

In his previous life, Shen Ao only made two movies that scored 7 points on Baidu, and the box office was not that impressive, only passing.

But among the new generation of directors, it is already pretty good and he has made a name for himself.

Such a person would definitely stand out among a group of students.

I had never heard of Song Yi in my previous life. He was chosen because of his good grades in school.

As a student at the Academy of Fine Arts, his teacher only praised his achievements in artistic aesthetics.

It seems that this is a talent who was buried due to bad conditions and opportunities in the previous life.

This is normal, there are too many people like this.

Chen Linfeng nodded, waved his hand to let Lu Yang go back, and then asked other people.

The conclusion is similar, that these three people performed the best.

Afterwards, Chen Linfeng made formal assignments for the students he brought with him.

Apart from these three people, the learning content for others is further subdivided.

As I studied photography, I followed Cao Yu and helped with the work.

Those who are in the directing department will work with the assistant director.

The remaining three followed him and served as assistant directors.

Everyone had different expressions. Others looked depressed. They also knew that their treatment had been downgraded and they had no hope of making a quick fortune.

Guo Fan and the others were so excited that they wanted to jump up, but they were trying their best to control themselves.

Chen Linfeng observed their expressions and said, "Don't be happy or depressed too early, as long as you perform well, everything is possible.

Besides, photographers like Cao Yu are also top photographers in the world. You don’t usually meet such teachers, so don’t be too ambitious.”

Everyone thought about it and agreed. Cao Yuren had won the Venice and Golden Horse Awards, and was also nominated for an Oscar.

When they meet such a big guy who is willing to teach them, they will just be happy and there is no time to be picky.

But, after all, there was hope that Director Chen would lead the team, and this person is a more important figure.

Everyone will still have some regrets.

Guo Fan, Shen Ao and Song Yi were delighted. No matter how big a boss Cao Yu was, he was not as big as Director Chen.

Director Chen’s thighs are the thickest.

The three of them looked at each other and their expressions became serious. There were still competitors here, and they had to defeat them before they could relax.

Chen Linfeng said no more and prepared to take them back home in two days.

This group of students was the first group of students he formally taught, and he provided them with the most sufficient resources.

A large crew like "Infinite World" allows them to learn and practice along the way, and the teaching conditions are already world-class.

We have to feed a few big hands.

To be a big shot in the industry, your own status and achievements are one thing, but whether you have support and voice for it is also crucial.

Especially the future reputation after death needs the support of students and heirs in order to be maintained for a long time.

A typical example here is the person with the surname Hu during the Republic of China era.

If there weren't so many students praising him, how could such a writer who is almost a traitor have such a good reputation.

Although Chen Linfeng despised his character, he could still learn from him in this aspect.

On March 3, Chen Linfeng returned to China.
