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

Chapter 4: Hollywood, ruined by its own actions, is frantically throwing awards at people to attract

Lu Lin composed himself and quickly walked onto the stage, taking the golden statuette from Yang Ziqiong. He then stood before the microphone and announced, "Lost in the East is now exclusively available on Qianqian Films. If you're interested, be sure to check it out—it's free!"

He's become a master of censorship; as soon as he went on stage to accept the award, he censored his own platform, said the censored words, and then turned around and left the stage—it was incredibly swift and decisive.

Yang Ziqiong, wanting to join in the fun, saw that Lu Lin was still speaking in Chinese, so she suppressed her laughter and translated and repeated his GG words before leaving the stage with him amidst the silence of the entire audience.

After the two stepped down from the stage, the awards ceremony continued.

But Lu Lin was destined to be restless tonight. Before he could even sit down properly, he had to get up and go on stage to receive another golden statuette.

This is the best edit!

These three technical awards are well-deserved.

Because Lu Lin handled almost all of the filming, music, editing, script, and directing of "Lost in the East" himself, otherwise the production cost would not have been so low.

What's most commendable is that he completed all this work in just two weeks, and the film quality was exceptionally high, so it's no wonder that the judges loved it.

At least, none of the media present, Hollywood celebrities, or movie fans around the world watching the live stream felt there was any foul play involved.

People were simply surprised that Lu Lin, despite being embroiled in scandal, managed to successfully manage public relations and actually get the Oscar committee to award him the prize despite public pressure...

……

After the technical awards were presented, the acting awards, such as Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actor, followed.

These are all awards that attract a great deal of public attention. Whoever wins Best Actor or Best Actress will spark discussions among movie fans worldwide.

But Lu Lin didn't win an award this time because he's always been seen as an idol: [An acting talent? Who are you calling an actor?!]

However, Scarlett Johansson won the Best Actress award for her role in "Lost in the East." After excitedly leaving a big red lipstick mark on Lu Lin's face, she quickly walked up to the stage to accept the award, making all the other actresses green with envy.

Even in the VIP section, the other Hollywood actresses were all incredibly envious. They had no interest in watching Scarlett Johansson on stage, holding her Oscar in one hand and pointing at Lu Lin in the audience with the other, frantically expressing her gratitude. They were all staring at Lu Lin with burning eyes.

They managed to make Lu Lin's Lesser Vehicle Holy Body activate its defense mechanism, which sent chills down his spine!

This scene was captured on camera and broadcast live to viewers around the world.

Especially for domestic netizens watching the live stream, this was Lu Lin's first public appearance since the scandal broke, which attracted a large number of onlookers who came to watch the spectacle.

The live stream of the awards ceremony had already surpassed 30 million views, with the chat filled with comments!

So it's no wonder that Lu the Great Demon King became the king of unspoken rules...

The actresses' eyes were practically spitting fire; no one could resist that!

Hollywood actresses are so unrestrained; at least our Chinese actresses know how to restrain themselves.

Talent is always in demand; Hollywood has really found a good dog!

Although I don't know Luo Da's exact net worth, it's certainly more than he could squander in ten lifetimes. Why would he need to be someone's dog?

It's not about the money; someone who's used to being the center of attention and basking in the limelight would feel worse than death if they were blacklisted!

[That's correct. Many celebrities have enough wealth to squander for several lifetimes, but they still crave the limelight and fight tooth and nail for top billing...]

[The main reason is that Hollywood is willing to recruit mainland China's eccentric and ruthless personality; they'd give him this award for free!]

[It's just that Hollywood's creative output is currently sluggish, and it desperately needs a genius like him whose creativity seems to be spreading faster than diarrhea...]

……

……

As the saying goes, talented people often emerge from among the online community. Among the domestic viewers watching the live stream, there were quite a few discerning individuals who realized that Hollywood was trying to take the opportunity to recruit Lu Lin.

Even Weinstein, who was previously beaten up, actually wanted to recruit Lu Lin, but Lu Lin didn't fall for his coercive tactics.

Hollywood is in dire need of creative filmmakers right now!

Lu Lin created a superhero movie that didn't exist in the world ten years ahead of schedule. The butterfly effect was far more than just that the superhero goddesses were still very young. During the decade when Marvel and DC movies exploded, major Hollywood studios were envious and wanted to do the same. So Lu Lin brought out a series of blockbusters such as "Avatar", "Godzilla vs. Kong" and "Transformers". This led to the entire Hollywood, from top to bottom, serving the creation of a series of blockbusters.

With Lu Lin cashing out a year ago, these blockbuster series collectively lost their creative direction. After their new films were released, they flopped one after another, losing so much money that they wanted to cry. Hollywood realized something was wrong and tried to put on the brakes, but it was too late. The major studios suddenly realized that after leaving the blockbuster series, they no longer knew how to create diverse genre films. They had become path-dependent!

Furthermore, in Europe and America today, various forms of "correctness" prevail, with Hollywood being the hardest hit. When creating films of all genres, everyone is competing to see who is more correct, resulting in films that are simply blinding. With these factors combined, Hollywood has now fallen into a creative slump and is in a dead end!

In contrast, Lu Lin and the Chinese entertainment industry he led have not only been unaffected by superhero films and the prevailing ideology, but have also developed extremely vigorously, suppressing the Korean wave in Asia.

Especially before the Lunar New Year, Lu Lin opened the door to the North American market with "Lost in the East," which also showed Hollywood, who were blinded by their own interests, how enjoyable a genre film without any of the usual "correct" elements could be.

Now that Lu Lin is fleeing the domestic entertainment industry, which he relies on for survival, in a sorry state, Hollywood is naturally eager to recruit him, so they are stuffing Oscars into his hands like they're free.

Just like right now!

"The film that won Best Original Screenplay is... *Lost in the East*... by Lu Lin..."

"The film that won Best Director is... *Lost in the East*... by Lu Lin..."

"The film that won Best Film is... *Lost in the East*... by Lu Lin..."

Lu Lin went on stage again and again, winning three more awards. Including Scarlett Johansson's Best Actress award, he has won seven Oscars for one film, which can be called a grand slam.

The Hollywood celebrities in the VIP section watched with wide eyes, their expressions of envy, jealousy, and resentment barely concealed.

Lost in the East is certainly entertaining and refreshing for contemporary Hollywood.

Lu Lin's ability to handle the entire creative process, both before and after filming, is undoubtedly a miraculous example for independent filmmakers.

But you've won so many awards, that's really going too far! Can't you leave some for everyone?!

but……

Envy, jealousy, and hatred are useless.

What made them even more envious, jealous, and resentful was yet to come.

Because in the last award of the entire awards ceremony, "Best Foreign Language Film," Lu Lin alone had three films nominated as a director.

One of them is starring Fan Dabing.

One of them is starring Li Dabing.

One of them stars Yang Mi and Tong Ya.

This is also why the four Chinese female celebrities went to Hollywood to attend the Oscars ceremony; they didn't come specifically to vent their frustrations on Lu Lin.

If they really came to Lu Lin to vent their pent-up frustrations, there would probably be more than four people; forty wouldn't be enough...
