Chapter 405 Add block?(2/3)
Even if the box office of the film is several times higher than that of the original version.
The box office has increased several times, largely due to market factors.
If nothing else, the original version has not been released in China.
However, it is undeniable that the influence of the film exceeds that of the original version.
Although the influence of a film does not play a decisive role in Oscar selection, it will still play some role.
Among the major film awards in the world, Oscar is undoubtedly the most commercial.
Zhang Yu won the award again, that is, he won the award again.
This is still rare at the Oscars.
It seems that this is not the first time for Zhang Yu.
"Thanks!"
"I am very happy to win this award again. Although this film is not the second English script I have written, I like this film better than Harry Potter."
"Perhaps it's because this film is the first romance film I wrote in English."
"Yes! I have written romance films before."
"I wonder if any of you here have heard of the Chinese-language movie "My Sassy Girl."
"It is said that love is an eternal theme and an indispensable element in movies."
"Many of my films have romance elements, but the only ones that can be called romance films are "My Sassy Girl" and "The Last Love."
"Of course, my new film is also a romance film."
"Thank you to the judges, and to the director of "The Love of Ghosts"... Although he has become the proof that I, Zhang Shisan, will not make romance movies..."
As soon as these words came out, many people in the audience were stunned.
Everyone could tell that he was mocking those great directors who said he didn't know how to make romantic movies.
He really dared to say it!
However, listening to this, many people suddenly felt how ridiculous those who questioned why Zhang Shisan didn't film "The Love of Ghosts" by himself were ridiculous.
If you don’t take pictures yourself, is it because you don’t know how to take pictures?
This inference is indeed untenable.
In addition, many people present have naturally heard of "My Sassy Girl", a popular movie in Asia.
At this time, many people reacted.
It turns out that Zhang Shisan had written a romance movie script before!
So, don’t those who ridicule Zhang Shisan’s inability to make romance movies even more untenable?
Zhang Yu got off the podium, and he didn't care how much trouble his "speech" on the stage would cause.
He was already giving Oscar face by mocking those guys without naming them on the podium.
And what about Kevin in the audience?
There was only a wry smile at this time.
I, the boss, never thought that such a sentence would cause so much unnecessary trouble.
If nothing else, those directors were probably full of hostility.
But it's not surprising when you think about the man who once pointed at Bobby Nash's nose at the Oscars and called him a cat and a dog.
The award presentation continues.
"The Last Love" won the Best Supporting Actress award just like the original version.
This role is also played by a black actor.
And no chance for Best Picture.
This is also expected.
Winning two awards is actually a surprise to Zhang Yu and others.
After the award ceremony, reporters were interviewed, and naturally they were asked by the media whether they would make a romantic movie.
"The new film is a romance film. This was originally planned. It's not meant to prove anything to anyone."
"Do I need to prove to them that I can make a romance movie?"
"No need!"
"Can I make a romance movie?"
"In my opinion, for any director, there is no type of film that he or she can't make. There are only types of films that he likes to make and whether he is willing to make them."
"At most, it's just different directors who specialize in different genres."
...
Zhang Shisan denied that his new film was a response to directors who said he would not make romance films.
He doesn't need to prove it to them.
But the ridicule towards those directors was very obvious in his words.
But who can say anything?
Moreover, he once again invited those directors to compete in his words.
This was highlighted by major media outlets.
It's a pity that it still remains unsolved.
No one responded.
"The Last Love" is regarded as a love classic, and no one will despise Zhang Shisan's new film.
Zhang Shisan doesn’t know how to make romance movies?
I guess the directors who said this didn’t believe it.
What they say is, at most, they were forced by the media and said it out of desperation.
A dead duck has a tough mouth.
If it gets out, whoever gets it out will be forced into a corner by the media and will have no choice but to hold on.
I just didn't expect Zhang Shisan to become more serious.
Is this necessary?
Do you have to press our faces to the ground and rub them to be satisfied?
Those directors were resentful of Zhang Shisan, but they forgot that they were the ones who started this matter.
Zhang Shisan's new film also entered the public eye at the Oscars.
Of course, Hollywood pays more attention.
Because Zhang Shisan's film is an English film, the casting was also done in Hollywood.
Nowadays, Hollywood's understanding of Zhang Shisan's abilities is undoubtedly clearer.
Hollywood stars that I didn't pay attention to before are now forced to pay attention.
"Forrest Gump" almost swept the Oscars and gained both box office and word-of-mouth success.
Although "Harry Potter" was not nominated for an Oscar, it produced many child stars and was even more impressive at the box office.
Even a low-budget romance film not only had an amazing box office, but also won an Oscar.
All three films were hits.
Among the actors who starred in these three films, which one has not become more popular and has been booked more and more?
Those were just films written by Zhang Shisan, but what about the ones he directed?
I'm afraid it will be a fire!
One part is a coincidence, but it’s impossible for all of them to be coincidences, right?
Then, news came out that the investment and production cost of Zhang Shisan's romance film exceeded US$200 million.
Why is a romance movie so expensive?
"The Endless Love between Humans and Ghosts" is only a few tens of millions, right?
This has doubled several times!
With an investment of over US$200 million, this is definitely considered a blockbuster in Hollywood.
Some people can't help but wonder, is it really a romance film, rather than other types of films with love elements?
Zhang Yu naturally didn't care about this, and the film began to test the situation.
There are many characters in this film, but the most critical ones are undoubtedly the two male and female protagonists, Jack and Rose.
