Chinese entertainment industry in disarray? Hollywood goddess welcomes strict father!

Meanwhile, the 3D holographic projection on the awards ceremony stage has started playing edited clips from "Lost in the East" again.

A very eye-catching shot!

The image shows Scarlett Johansson lying on her side on the bed with her back to the camera, wearing only pink panties.

The camera zooms in from a distance, moving from a full-body back view to a close-up, then pans across the body from head to toe, sweeping over every inch of skin and the curves of the back, until it finally settles on Scarlett Johansson's pair of fair and delicate feet.

The shots, though visually stimulating, didn't actually reveal anything, yet they perfectly showcased Scarlett Johansson's voluptuous beauty!

of course……

It's not necessarily true that this shot is particularly brilliant or artistic.

The selection of Oscar awards is never based on highlight reels, but rather on a comprehensive evaluation of various factors and collective voting.

Lu Lin's latest film, "Lost in the East," which won Best Cinematography, is an independent art film highly favored by professional film critics.

Because both Lu Lin and Scarlett Johansson, the two lead actors, acted for free and received a share of the box office revenue, the total production cost was only $10, and the production cycle was only two weeks.

However, low production costs and short production cycles do not necessarily mean poor quality and low box office. Conan, the host of the opening show, said that Lu Lin is the second Chinese superstar to conquer Hollywood, referring to the film "Lost in the East," which grossed $1.3 million in North America when it was released earlier this year.

The Hollywood Reporter called it: "One of the highest-grossing films in global film history, giving a shot in the arm for independent filmmakers worldwide!"

In fact, before this Oscars ceremony, "Lost in the East" had already won a lot of awards and honors at major international film festivals!

"Congratulations, my dear, you stupid, straight, gay bastard, hurry up and go on stage to accept your award..."

In the ensuing silence, Scarlett Johansson gave Lu Lin a warm hug and jokingly congratulated him.

Lu Lin laughed heartily, then hugged each of the female stars before going on stage to accept the award in silence.

Kevin Feige handed the golden statuette to Lu Lin, then opened his arms to hug Lu Lin: "Congratulations..."

Lu Lin dodged his embrace: "Congratulations are fine, but don't hug me. I'm not really gay!"

Kevin Feige: "..."

Kevin Feige couldn't understand, but he knew he was being discriminated against again. He could only laugh and cry at the same time, fold his arms and step back, handing the microphone to Lu Lin.

Lu Lin weighed the small golden statuette in his hand, stood in front of the microphone, and said, "You know, America values ​​freedom, and the Oscars are the temple of film art. For someone as lowly as me to be able to enter this hall and win an award, that's true freedom to the core, and art to the core! I love it!"

"Hey, right now, 'Lost in the East' is exclusively available on Qianqian Movies. If you're interested, be sure to check it out—it's free!"

After saying those two sentences in Chinese, Lu Lin ignored the reactions from the audience and quickly walked off the stage with the trophy.

Later.

The awards ceremony continued on stage.

Lu Lin, who had returned to the main table, casually tossed the little golden statuette to Fan Dabing and then munched on sunflower seeds, lost in thought.

……

[The Great Dao Sage System: Recruiting Disciples, Spreading the Word, and Achieving Sainthood]

[Holy Lord]: Lu Lin

[Saint Rank]: Lesser Vehicle Saint, devoid of emotion and nature (Please ascend to Greater Vehicle Saint within 152 days)

[Holy Value]: 89/89 (A Holy Rank can be upgraded when the base Holy Value reaches 90)

[Sacred Skills]: Theravada Holy Body, Preaching and Resolving Doubts, Enlightenment, Manifestation Before the Public, Hidden in the City, Eye of True Knowledge, Unparalleled Eloquence, Enjoying Food, Drinking and Having Fun, Ancient Tree Roots, Embracing the Moon in One's Arms, Playing Musical Instruments and Singing, Train Bento Box...

【disciple】:

The number of disciples in the general public is 6.8 million+ (reaching 7 million will randomly grant either basic holy value or holy skill).

9 million+ loyal disciples (reaching 1 million grants a random bonus of base Holy Value or Holy Skill).

17+ Death Oath Disciples (reaching 20 grants a random bonus of base Holy Value or Holy Skill).

……

Lu Lin mentally reviewed the system panel and saw that the disciple data had not changed much. He couldn't help but curse this unorthodox saint system again, which had ruined all the fun of his second life.

Ok.

Of course, this time traveler also has some kind of cheat code.

It's just that his cheat ability is too overpowered, forcing him to become a saintly being who is "ruthless and heartless," to the point that even though he's a super-rich man, he still has to jump around and act as an actor to recruit disciples.

The so-called disciples can be simply understood as celebrity fans; the general disciples correspond to casual fans, the loyal disciples correspond to die-hard fans, and the sworn disciples... well, you can tell from the name...

For example, the actresses sitting next to Lu Lin at this moment!

For example, Kevin Feige, who was discovered by Lu Lin!

In short, recruiting Deathsworn disciples is no easy task. Lu Lin's focus has always been on recruiting both general and loyal disciples. This is also why he left China and moved to Hollywood. He has already recruited most of the disciples in China, and now he can only focus on the global population.

Otherwise, if you fail to advance to Saint rank within the time limit, you're doomed!

"After the buzz surrounding tonight's Oscars ceremony builds, the number of disciples should see a surge, surpassing 7 million. At that point, the base Saint Value will reach 90, and the Saint Rank will increase accordingly..."

Lu Lin closed the system panel in his mind and turned to look at the Chinese and Western actresses around him dressed in sexy gowns, thinking to himself, "I wonder if the [Ruthless and Emotionless] attribute will be updated after I enter the Mahayana Saint stage?"

"However, even if this damn entry doesn't update, with the defensive power of the Mahayana Holy Body, I should be able to withstand the punitive lightning punishment and look like nothing happened, so I can do whatever I want..."

As Lu Lin was lost in thought, the newly appointed presenter on stage, Chinese-American actress Yang Ziqiong, suddenly announced his name loudly in Chinese: "The film that won Best Original Score is 'Lost in the East'—Lu Lin!!!"

This Chinese-American actress, Yang Ziqiong, is none other than Yang Ziqiong, a top female action star in Hong Kong films in her early years, who is now also developing her career in Hollywood.

As she called out Lu Lin's name in Chinese, the theme song of the movie "Lost in the East," "Where in Life Do We Not Meet?", played in the venue.

Fate drifts away with the wind, and even when fate ends, we will still watch over each other. In that fleeting moment when our paths crossed, we were separated again in an instant...

Even in farewell, I silently accept my fate. Perhaps one day I can rekindle our memories, but that day of reunion exists only in eternity, and the distant night sky lies beyond our reach...

The melancholic Chinese lyrics and melody, paired with the 3D holographic projection of the movie on stage, depicted Lu Lin, playing the male protagonist, and Scarlett Johansson, playing the young American woman, bidding a regretful farewell amidst the bustling traffic, creating a profound and captivating atmosphere.

Snapped--

pop-

Sparse applause rang out in the venue, probably because some people were reminded of the excitement they felt when they first watched "Lost in the East." Even though they loathed Lu Lin, this philanderer, they couldn't help but applaud.
