Superstars start from the Academy of Film and Television

Chapter 462 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

Han Beibei hated iron but said: "How old are you, why are you still afraid of her? Can you give me some hope?"

Perhaps this is the world in the eyes of children, thinking that when they grow up, they can be free from any constraints, without strict teachers, and without nagging parents. However, when they grow up, they have to face this cruel society alone. Appreciating the beauty of this world, you have already run into walls everywhere, and your head is broken.

Han Fei shook his head secretly. Those who were in the rebellious period still couldn't listen to what they said, so he could only say: "Then you can stay with me for a while, and I will ask Dad to bring your clothes. Do it yourself, don't treat me like an old mother."

"Brother, I knew you were the best." The little girl danced with excitement.

Han Xiao is also very troubled by the war between two women, one big and one small, one is his wife and the other is his former lover, the palms and backs of his hands are full of flesh!

Hearing that his son wanted his daughter to live with him for a period of time, Han Xiao naturally raised his hands to support him. Distance creates beauty. Maybe after a while, the daughter will figure it out. Is it better to stay at home?
How Han Xiao did ideological work for Dong Jie, Han Fei didn't know, but Han Xiao should have two brushes for being able to stand under the shadow of Dong Jie's high-pressure policy for so many years.

This time, I not only brought the little girl's clothes and toys, but also Doudou. This dog grew up with Han Beibei. He has entered old age and has no energy. Lie down and doze off.

After getting off the car, Gouzi seemed to know this place, and he seemed a little excited when he entered the yard. The little girl led him to trot on his short legs, and Han Fei and Han Xiao looked at each other and smiled.

The little girl has been coveting Han Fei's place for a long time, and now that she lives here, she naturally sees everything is perfect, and begins to arrange her room with great interest.

After Han Xiao went back, before Han Fei could warm up his buttocks on the sofa, the little girl yelled that she was hungry.

"Okay, auntie, I'll take you to a big dinner, congratulations on your housewarming, okay?" Han Fei suddenly felt like he had made a wrong decision.

"Woo~~~ It's so hot, spicy and fragrant, it's so delicious."

In the hotpot restaurant, the little girl was sweating profusely from eating, which made Han Fei amused: "Don't make it look like your mother abused you, my mother's cooking skills are no worse than restaurants."

The little girl sighed: "Hey, my mother's cooking is delicious, but she never puts chili in her cooking, and the taste is too bland."

Han Fei shook his head: "That's the recipe I changed for you. My mother used to make dishes that were both spicy and salty."

The little girl was stunned for a few seconds, she seemed a little moved, but immediately said: "Can you stop being so disappointing? On my first day of freedom, why do you always mention my mother? Can you let me have a good meal?" gone?"

After leaving the hot pot restaurant, the little girl asked Han Fei to take her to KTV again. It was obvious that the little girl had completely let herself go today.

In the KTV, the little girl sang and danced, not to mention, she really meant to sing and dance rap. She played until ten o'clock in the evening, and Han Fei dragged her back.

After taking a shower, Han Fei was about to go to bed, when the door was pushed open a small crack, and the little girl poked her head out from the crack.

"Brother, I can't sleep."

Helpless, Han Fei had no choice but to go to the little girl's room and watch her the whole time, making sure that she fell asleep before going back to the room to rest. When he woke up, it was already eight o'clock in the morning.

Then, I had to send the little girl to school. If she was late, she must be late, and she was scolded by the teacher when she arrived at school.

"Hey, it's really not easy to be a parent these days." Sitting in the office, Han Fei couldn't help sighing.

Coincidentally, Li Yanan came in from the outside and couldn't help laughing: "What's the matter? Sighing?"

After hearing what happened to Han Fei, Li Yanan laughed even more. For this kind of gloating guy, Han Fei could only give her a pair of big white eyes.

"This is the information of all theaters at present, are you sure you want to do this?" After the joke, Li Yanan said seriously.

Cinema is an asset-heavy industry. In fact, any film and television company wants to master the resources of cinema, but why are there not many film and television companies that really do it?Even a company like Hua Yi, which started to deploy theaters very early, can't find its place in the top ten of the mainland's theater rankings?

Investing in cinema chains is slow to achieve results. If you want to build a scale in a short time, there are only two options. The first is to spend money, and the second is to acquire. However, the mainland market is currently booming, and no matter what the cost is, it will not be less.

"Now Feiniao Film and Television is short of such an industrial chain, and it can form a perfect closed loop. It must be done, but we have to wait for a suitable opportunity, otherwise, not to mention the funds, the resistance of our peers is enough for us to drink a pot gone."

This is also what Han Fei is most worried about. In the past, Feiniao Film and Television has always played the role of content output in the industry, so even if he stole the limelight, his colleagues only started behind the scenes, and did not face it.

Once Han Fei set foot in theaters, it was different. It was equivalent to pushing many previously cooperative theaters from the position of partners to the position of competitors.

Seeing that Han Fei was still rational, Li Yanan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Before, she thought that Han Fei's successive films had achieved great success all over the world, and he was already inflated.

In November, Han Fei went to the United States again, and this time, his goal was also obvious, which was to go to Oscar.

In fact, the pre-promotion of "Hero"'s impact on the Oscars has been going on for two months. This is a protracted battle. It will take at least eight months to get the rewards from the beginning until the awards are presented in March next year.

During the two months, Han Fei spent 800 million US dollars. If he did not receive an Oscar award, the money would be wasted, and the fun would be like a heartbeat. The reason is that his partner Zhang Weiping has no money!
But even with Han Fei's wealth, he couldn't help being frightened by Oscar's money-burning game. After all, the first two months were just a warm-up, and the real hand-to-hand combat had not yet begun.

"Hey, buddy, you can call me Tony, I'm your Oscar public relations consultant." A white man greeted Han Fei enthusiastically.

Of course, his enthusiasm is not because of his friendliness, but because he sees an attractive beauty. Yes, just like what Chris said, the Chinese man in front of him is very generous, and he will do anything for Oscar. He likes this The company didn't have the courage to break the boat, so it decided to withdraw from the Oscar competition as soon as possible, because this is a battlefield, no, it should be said to be more cruel than a battlefield.

"Hello." Han Fei took off his sunglasses and shook hands with the other party.

"I want to know what to do next?" Han Fei said straight to the point.

Tony shrugged: "It's actually very simple. First of all, I have to explain to you how we should please the Oscar judges. Yes, it is to please. This word may not sound pleasant, but it is the truth. These master judges They hold the statuette, and anyone who wants to hold that statuette on the Oscar podium must please them."

This is also Tony's vaccination for Han Fei. He has already studied Han Fei. This "flashy" Chinese seems to be not very friendly to the United States, which will directly affect the rating of "hero" in the eyes of the judges. .

In the past two months, Tony has been working on a remedy for public opinion, and the results are not bad. Of course, the premise is that Han Fei can no longer make unfavorable remarks for Oscar, otherwise his efforts will be in vain.

Han Fei nodded and signaled Tony to continue.

Tony took a sip of coffee: "First of all, you need to understand the composition of these judges. Among the nearly 6000 college judges, only 50% are younger than 14 years old, and the average age of the rest is 62 years old. Nearly 94% of them were white and 77% male."

"Most of these white elderly judges are stubborn. They like politically correct literary films. This can actually be seen from the recent Oscar-winning films."

Han Fei nodded: "Yes, you are very professional, but it is obvious that [Hero] does not have these two points."

Tony was at a loss for words, but for the sake of making money and fame, he still bite the bullet and said: "Yes, but this is not absolute. As long as the film is good enough, we can still win Oscars, but my suggestion is , use all resources on one point, don’t scatter them, you have to understand that with [Heroes]’s situation, it’s impossible to expect multifaceted blossoms.”

Han Fei was a little hesitant for a while. It is naturally best to be able to bloom more. Oscar has won many nominations. How domineering does it sound?
However, the reality is so cruel, Han Fei pondered for a long time before speaking: "Then what do you think is the most hopeful thing for us?"

"Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film!" Tony said in a very determined tone.

Han Fei was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that Tony would say "technical awards such as best art". In fact, although these technical awards are also affirmation of the crew, their influence is still too small in comparison. Han Fei Naturally, I am dissatisfied.

However, the "Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film" award is enough weight. The so-called Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film is actually equivalent to the best film, but it must be a film from a country other than the United States to participate in the election.

"Tell me your reason." Han Fei became interested.

Tony was secretly happy. He knew that his plan had been approved by the Huaxia BOSS, so he said, "It's actually very simple. The movie [Hero] is in line with what the judges have always known about Huaxia, and it has a strong visual impact." Strong, it will impress them, believe me, it is very important, and it is the key to [Hero]'s victory!"

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Han Fei stretched out his hand.

Tony was overjoyed, and shook Han Fei's hand a few times. In fact, every Oscar public relations is an opportunity as well as a challenge for them and other public relations companies. If there is no harvest this year, tomorrow will be taken advantage of. Do customers come to them?Obviously impossible.

For Tony, the appearance of this "hero" is also a chance for him to become famous. Compared with helping an American movie win an Oscar, it is nothing in the circle, but helping a Chinese movie win an Oscar has a completely different meaning up.

So, on the second day after Han Fei came to the United States, he announced in a high-profile manner that "Hero" had applied for the "Oscar Best Foreign Language Film" competition.

Of course, this is not news in the United States. After all, there are a large number of foreign films going to the Oscars every year. Han Fei is not the first and will not be the last.

However, when the news spread to the country, it detonated the entire network in an instant. How many years has it been?How many years have Huaxia films been away from the main stage of world films?In recent years, not to mention the Oscars, even the Chinese films in the three major film festivals have rarely seen Chinese films.

On the contrary, some carpet stars go to the red carpet without any bottom line, and there are not a few who are ashamed and thrown abroad.

Even just announcing his participation in the election was exciting enough. In just a few hours, the keyword "hero running for the Oscars" soared to the top ten of Weibo's most searched lists.

And the heat continued to ferment, various chat groups began to spread the news wildly, and some film and television websites and forums were also discussing it enthusiastically.

Seeing this, Weibo directly threw out a vote of "Are you optimistic about [Hero] winning the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film?"

As a result, in less than six hours, 11 netizens participated in the voting. Among them, 85% were optimistic, 11% were not optimistic, and 4% were not concerned or indifferent.

Although most netizens are optimistic, many people in the circle are not optimistic that "Hero" can win an Oscar. Even the famous film critic "Fang Hua", who has always praised "Hero", expressed his pessimism.

"In fact, I look at every Chinese film participating in the Oscar selection with excitement. However, after so many years, no pure Chinese film has won an Oscar. The main reason is actually the Differences between Eastern and Western cultures."

"I have said many times that [Hero] is a rare masterpiece of Chinese movies. However, the core of it is too profound. I am not very optimistic that the white old men at Oscar can understand the core of it. In addition, I would like to say to those netizens who over-advocate the Oscars, as if Han Fei is a loser if he does not win the Oscar: Please, please let the Huaxia movies go, even if you don’t win the Oscar, how can you use it? [Hero] Artistry, isn’t the box office in North America and even the world a success?”

Fanghua's long comment is very impressive, but it also shows the complicated feelings of Chinese filmmakers towards the Oscars from another level. They want to be recognized but are afraid of failure.

At the same time, the mentality of netizens is also very interesting. "Heroes" just announced their participation in the election, not even nominated, but a large number of netizens are following the development of the situation with the mentality of "willing to win".

It can be predicted what kind of attitude they will have if the "hero" has not won an award or even been nominated. If there is no one behind this, Han Fei does not believe it.

Obviously, this was a premeditated action. It's nothing more than "Hero" getting a high box office worldwide, but now he wants to get his hands on the Oscars?If Han Fei is allowed to do it, then his position in the hearts of Chinese audiences will be unshakable. In the future, won't everyone act according to his face?
Together, that is naked hatred!
