Chapter 984 Awards

Xiao Yunhai took a deep breath and seemed relieved.

Kerry sat down next to Xiao Yunhai and asked softly, "Xiao, how sure are you?"

Xiao Yunhai looked around and said in Chinese: "I have a fart confidence. You think Weaver, the director who is firmly at the top of the box office charts, is a mess."

Kerry said in surprise: "Then you dare to bet $20 billion with others. If you have so much money and nowhere to spend, you can lend it to me."

Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said angrily, "I said that I would bet $20 billion, but I was just trying to make them retreat. Wouldn't that save my face?"

Kerry was shocked: "You Chinese people are sick. Face is more important, or 20 billion US dollars?"

Xiao Yunhai didn't even think about it, and said, "Of course it's the face that matters. I don't want to discredit our Chinese film in front of filmmakers all over the world."

Liang Hui said softly: "Yunhai, didn't you say that this movie can reach 15 billion US dollars?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Liang, I never thought that the post-production of "2012" would be so difficult before. It is an incredible thing to make the picture I imagined perfectly. And it makes me even more broken. There are also problems with 3D technology, although 3D technology has been patented, it is actually not particularly mature.”

Dong Piao Piao was shocked and said, "What if they want to bet with you?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Impossible. Hanks is just a senior executive of Stell Networks. The $20 billion is not something he can move if he wants to. Besides, even if they agree, the big deal will be when the time comes. , I just said that it’s alright if it’s not finished yet?”

Huang Qiusheng said: "It's really at that point, and we can only use this method that is not a solution. After all, it is 20 billion US dollars.

It's worth losing face for it. "

Ye Yongren smiled bitterly and said, "You are too bold."

In front of everyone sat an artist in his thirties. He secretly recorded what several people said with his mobile phone, and then got up and walked outside, as if to go to the bathroom.

After a while, Hanks, who was sitting in front, also stood up and walked out as well.

Xiao Yunhai saw all this in his eyes, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

In fact, what he just said was for the person in front of him.

When the other party took the mobile phone to record, Xiao Yunhai had already discovered it, and deliberately said his movie was very unbearable, so that he could record it and show it to Hanks. The purpose is self-evident, to lead him into the urn.

For the 3D version of "2012", Xiao Yunhai was very confident and never thought that he would lose.

The "Avatar" in the previous life can only be regarded as a second-class level based on the script, far less than those classic movies, but once you use 3D technology, no matter how exciting the plot of your movie is, it will not be as good as that of movie fans. the feeling of the situation. Wherever it went, it was unstoppable, and it finally won the box office of 2.7 billion US dollars.

If it is put into this world, it can exceed at least 20 billion US dollars.

Saying that "2012" has reached $15 billion at the box office, Xiao Yunhai is already very conservative.

Not to mention that Weaver's "Resident Evil" was only shot for two years, even if it took twenty years, it would never be better than his 3D version of "2012".

In a corner of the DuPont Theater, Hanks was holding the cell phone recorded by the artist.

"What's going on?" Hanks asked, frowning.

The artist said: "Mr. Hanks, their voices are very low, and they are still in Chinese. I can't get too close, so I only recorded it to this extent."

Hanks patted him on the shoulder and said, "You did a very good job. I'll use the phone first. If the information in it is useful, then there will be your place in the next film we shoot at Paramount. All right, go back."

When the artist heard this, he couldn't help thanking Hanks, and then returned to the scene with a smile on his face.

After the young man left, Hanks took out his mobile phone, quickly dialed a number, and said, "I have a very important recording here, which is related to 20 billion US dollars. It's just that the voice inside is too low to hear clearly. I will send it to you now, and within half an hour, you must restore it to me using technical means as soon as possible. Also, ask someone who is proficient in Chinese to help translate it, can you do it?"

"Fifteen minutes? Good. We have limited time. We can go as fast as we can. But it has to be correct, understand?"

"Go get busy."

Hanks hung up the phone, snorted coldly, and said, "Xiao, fight with me, you are too tender."

Twenty minutes later, Hanks' cell phone rang.

"How? Are you out yet?" Hanks asked impatiently.

The other party said: "Because the sound is too low in some places, we really can't hear it clearly. But we have already translated 90% of the content. Mr. Hanks, I will immediately pass the translated recording to You. This content was translated by three teachers who are proficient in Chinese, and it is 100% correct without any objection."

Hanks said happily: "Very good. You can pass it over quickly."

Soon, Hanks got the English version of the recording, and after listening to it, a smile appeared on his face.

"Xiao, you're not dead this time."

Knowing that the matter was urgent, Hanks immediately called his father, David Stell.

Just when Hanks was busy raising $20 billion in gambling, the Oscars ceremony inside had already officially started.

The host was still last year's Richard. He used his unique humor to connect all the nominated works, and he didn't forget to make fun of the directors and actors in it, which made the audience burst into laughter.

The first Oscar's award is the Best Screenplay Award. Xiao Yunhai's "Infernal Affairs" and "Inception" and Jiao Fangtao's "Xiao Cui" are all shortlisted.

Xiao Yunhai is still looking forward to this award. Because this is the one he is most likely to win out of all the awards he's been shortlisted for.

It's a pity that when the award presenter called out that the winner was Jack, the screenwriter of "The Old Man and the Youth", Xiao Yunhai clapped his hands, shook his head at Jiao Fangtao and smiled bitterly: "It seems that "The Old Man and the Young" is really my nemesis, go on. The second golden bottle, this time Oscar, all lost to it."

Jiao Fangtao nodded and said, "We are all the same. After Jin Zun finished, I watched this movie specifically. I have to say that it is really excellent."

When Oscar came up, he gave Xiao Yunhai a blow to the head, which made Xiao Yunhai feel a little bad.

"Oscar wouldn't really dare not give himself an award, would he?"

The following awards soon confirmed Xiao Yunhai's hunch.

The three awards of best editing, best action design, and best visual effects did not have Xiao Yunhai's share, and "Xiao Cui" also did not win an award.

Liang Hui frowned and said, "If the next best foreign language film award is not awarded to our "Infernal Affairs", it means that there is really a problem."

Among the nominees for the best foreign language film, Xiao Yunhai's "Infernal Affairs" is the one most likely to win, both from a commercial point of view and an artistic point of view. "Dream Space" and "Xiao Cui" are incomparable.

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I feel the same way."

The guests presenting the best foreign language film were Hilda Weaver and Xiao Yunhai's good friend Bi Kewen, who had just had a very unpleasant quarrel with Xiao Yunhai.

Both of them are the most heavyweight directors in Hollywood, and they aroused warm applause and cheers from the audience as soon as they appeared.

Bikwen said with a smile: "The Oscar Organizing Committee was able to ask Mr. Weaver to present the Best Foreign Language Film Award, which shows how much importance it attaches to this award."

Weaver smiled and said, "Having not seen him for two years, Director Bi Kewen seems to have become more talkative than before. Hehe, we are all old, and Hollywood will be dominated by young people in the future."

Bikwen nodded and said, "That's right. But we're not awarding the Best Newcomer Award, but the Best Foreign Language Film Award, so I'll leave it for later. Mr. Weaver, I don't know what you think. Of the six films, who is most likely to win the award?"

Weaver said: "I think these six films are very good, and I have watched them all. In my own opinion, I think the "Big River" by Mr. Takahashigawa, the great Japanese director, is better."

Bi Kewen was stunned for a moment. He came late, and he didn't know about the festival between Weaver and Xiao Yunhai. Originally thought that Weaver would say "Infernal Affairs" by Xiao Yunhai, but he didn't expect it to be "The Big River" by Takahashikawa.
