At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 543 After winning the award
"Has the manuscript come yet?"

"Come here... come here, the picture... not so good..."

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

"Hey, this one doesn't work either, get a picture of holding a cup, and ask over there..."

At this time, various domestic portals are busy working overtime...

The time difference is 15 hours!
Equivalent to early morning hours...

In fact, there is nothing, just a picture, and congratulations to Shen Xudong for winning the Best Original Screenplay Award at the 79th Oscar...

Of course, this is only the first wave, and we have to look back at his screenwriting career and the like.

Newsletter, that's it!
Of course, there will definitely be themed discussions afterwards, asking relatives and friends about their impressions of the parties, etc...

This is the virtue of entertainment news!
The paper media is miserable, guessing that a bunch of editors have received the news of temporary overtime - Shen Xudong was crowned the best original screenwriter, although it is not a big award, but... it must be an important event!
Oscar!

At this stage, the number one award in the film industry - after Li Amin won the award, mainland filmmakers are forced to set the Oscar as their goal...

But...from 01 to this year, it has been six years, and the only thing worth mentioning is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"...

Shen Xudong filled the history of this award for Best Original Screenplay!

The first screenwriter of domestic entertainment?

Internationally renowned screenwriter?

Don't forget, he's also a producer with a $6000 million project on his hands...

……

"I'm pretty dazed myself... the acceptance speech was incoherent..."

Not counting the press conference, there was a period of interviews after winning the award, Shen Xudong specifically answered some questions...

The focus is of course on the mainland reporters - blatant care!

"Then who do you want to thank the most when you play?"

"...Thanks to my teacher, he gave me confidence...I used to think that Hollywood screenwriters are all great gods. I really came into contact with them. In fact, that's the same thing, especially large-scale commercial films, pure assembly line writing, such as a story. There are several turning points, and each turning point must have several kinds of conflicts at the precise time period of the film, all of which are indispensable..."

"Of course, those commercial films are unlikely to win the script award. The ones that can win the script award are basically independent and serious films. In this regard, there is not much difference between us..."

"This is my previous thought. I haven't said it all the time. I'm afraid of being scolded, but..."

Shen Xudong raised the little golden man in his hand: "Now, if I say this, there should be no problem!"

"Do you have any plans for the future? Should you continue to develop in Hollywood or return to China?"

"...My foundation must be in China..." After a pause, Shen Xudong continued: "However, I have two projects here, and I may have to stay for a while..."

"Two items?"

"One is "The Fault in Our Stars", which is a project based on my novel, and the other is "The Twilight Saga...I really like this story, and I am going to start filming..."

Take the opportunity to promote it!

"You won the best screenplay in Venice before, and now you are the best screenwriter at the Oscars... you can be called No.1 in China..."

"Nonsense, those who are stronger than me are gone, Mr. Lu Wei, Mr. Liu Heping, including my senior brother Lan Xiaolong, Li Qiang... there are some who are stronger than me, I am lucky..."

Hurry up and say a few words of humility. At this moment, bursts of applause came from over there, and it is estimated that there will be another award.

Closing topic: "What does this Oscar mean to you?"

"...means that my point of view is correct..."

By the way, as expected, this year's Oscar is Martin Scorsese's coronation ceremony, the best director was awarded to him, and the best picture was also given to him!
Forest Whitaker wins Best Actor for The Last Dictatorship and Helen Mirren wins Best Actress for The Queen…

"The Last Dictatorship", the story of Ugandan President Amin...

If you are interested, you can take a look-John Khan: What will happen if a Jingsu becomes the president of Uganda? (Wonderful Small Country 10)...

"Carol" was a sad reminder, with six nominations, only the best costume design.

It's already pretty good, "Dreamgirl" has eight nominations, but only won Best Supporting Actress, and "Babel" has six nominations, and only won Best Soundtrack...

The worst thing is actually "Letter from Iwo Jima", five nominations and nothing...

After all, "Flags of Our Fathers" and "Letters From Iwo Jima" are one movie-director Eastwood made two movies from the American and Japanese perspectives based on the Battle of Iwo Jima...

Even "Flags of Our Fathers" didn't win an award, so why did "Letter from Iwo Jima" win an award?
……

Beverly Hills Hilton, Vanity Fair's Oscar Night Celebration Party.

The party was even more star-studded than the Oscars. In addition to the award-winning stars, many stars who did not show up at the ceremony also attended. Of course Shen Xudong came...

Hungry to the chest against the back, busy feasting...

Then a bunch of people came to meet him...

Shen Xudong is also hard to get up, basically everyone is brought over by Joseph Drake, most of them are from the independent film circle...

And Harvey also introduced many people to Shen Xudong.

"Shen, remember to find me if you have a good script!"

"must…"

Shen Xudong stood up and clinked glasses with Harvey...

Want to cooperate?

Collaboration is a sling, Harvey is too greedy, "Carol" spent 800 million US dollars on awards, but there are only a few nominations...

Of course, there are indeed benefits, and the feedback is in the market. After the Oscars, "Carol" has once again expanded its release scale, and it will definitely pick up, but... the increase is not much.

According to Christine's prediction, the box office in North America will increase by up to 200 million US dollars, and most overseas regions that can be released have already been released. For relatively small overseas markets, you can only buy out the copyright...

If you win a more important award, it is easy to call out a high price, but now it is only a nomination and cannot be sold at a high price...

The future income of the film, the box office is only a part of the film's income. Although many peripheral copyrights are still being negotiated, under the halo of six Oscar nominations, the TV copyright, online copyright and DVD sales of "Carol" will be higher than normal. The niche movies are a little higher...

Globally, an estimated $500 million more can be collected...

Once it was settled, it was still a loss!
On the contrary, "Little Miss Sunshine" operated by Harvey himself, the best original screenplay, best supporting actor, plus nominations for best picture and best director, the copyright price has at least tripled...

Maggie...

Continue working with Harvey?
Unless you're out of your mind...

Then Zhang Ziyi brought her boyfriend over: "Shen, this is my boyfriend Vivian..."

Shen Xudong quickly got up: "Senior Sister...Mr. Vivian..."

"Congratulations on winning the award..."

Shen Xudong chuckled: "Luck, it's all luck..."

"Luck is also a kind of strength!"

Vivian muttered something, but Shen Xudong couldn't understand it, Zhang Ziyi smiled and said: "Vivian is very interested in you, and wants to ask you to talk!"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "Hehe, I'm not interested in him..."

Glancing at this Vivian, Shen Xudong lowered his voice: "Senior sister, remind you, there is a Ponzi scheme that uses celebrities, one knows the other, and continues to sell..."

"What do you mean by that?"

"You experience it yourself..."

　There is another chapter to go back to write at night...
