Chapter 195 Director's Guild Award
The rule is to lie on various places and objects, with the standard posture facing down and the whole body straight. The Chicago Sun finally said: "Can magical Yang set off a craze for street craze? We don't know, but we saw a 22-year-old, real best director. You can't count on Martin Scorsese to play street craze. A hundred years after the movie was born, we finally welcomed such an interesting, magical guy."
People with extraordinary strength and people-friendly funny are naturally the most popular, but behind the "interesting" and "funny" voices, there are also many people laughing at them, waiting to see how he makes a fool of himself. This is not normal makeup used in viral marketing, but planning. Who would be so stupid? Want to play a big game in life? Wait for the bleak ending, and then you will never dare to mention it again!
However, many movie fans tried the first crab, the United States, Britain, Australia, Taiwan... and the blogger website homepage special topics were added to the fire. In just a few days, more than 10,000 people uploaded their own street photos; among them, there were many celebrities, NBA superstar Shaquille O'Neal was in the arena, locker room and other places, and the Golden State Warriors new star Gilbert Arenas even lay on the floor of the women's bathroom...
Performing stars should not act randomly when considering their image, but Michael Pete responded, Zachary Levi responded, and even middle-aged uncles like Robert Downey Jr. responded... But they were also lying beautifully, not choosing toilets, washing machines and other objects, but like garden chairs, flower pots, etc.
This "very stupid and cool" extreme activity quickly gained a foothold and spread rapidly.
And in these days, the preparations for "mit-21-team" have also made new progress. As the Caesar Palace Hotel agreed to provide a venue, it was like a dam breaking. After the crew contacted and analyzed the interests, other hotels and casinos then "look at the Caesar Hotel" and "look at the Flamingos" and so on, they knew they were defeated one by one, and they all agreed to film casually with a "grace"!
mit finally came up with the style of a prestigious school, changed his original idea, and allowed the crew to enter the campus. Spokeswoman Patty Richards said: "We initially refused because we were worried that this movie would give everyone the bad impression of mit 'she just teaches people how to count cards and gambling', but Wang Yang used the script to impress us again. The Black Jack group is a real history, which is why we agreed."
The venue problem has been solved, and the film crew has been formed. The photographer is Vale Fister, who has worked with Wang Yang many times, and the setter Gordon Xin; in the position of costume designer, because the team members in the movie have varied styles, this position is very important. Wang Yang finally invited Lindy Haiming ("Empire Tomorrow", "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", "Casino Royale", and "Batman" series), which can be said to be a big brand.
This was invited before he won the Golden Globe Best Director, but now in addition to "magic", there is also the halo of the Golden Globe Awards above his head, which is undoubtedly easier to attract these Oscar-level people to join. At the same time, he also has his own team, art designer David F. Clarson, prop artist Drew Petrota... Harry George returned to his position as deputy, while Joshua worked hard to do the trivial work of a production assistant...
The crew of "mit-21-team" can gather to Boston or Las Vegas at any time to start the official filming. However, since the Lunar New Year is about to be, Wang Yang decided to start filming after the Spring Festival. At the same time, there is still a problem that has not been solved, that is, the candidate for the actor of one of the Chinese girl who counts cards in the Blackjack group.
Since the news was released and contacted agency companies such as caa, many recommended candidates have been sent to Wang Yang's desk, and some actors have also contacted him through various means. For example, Zhang Ziyi asked about the possibility of her being cast. The answer is naturally not good, and her temperament and English level do not match.
In fact, after searching for a long time, Wang Yang had already lowered his requirements. He did not need pure Chinese, but mixed-race children, as long as the audience seemed to know that she was mixed-race. So many mixed-race children appeared on the list, and then he eliminated some girls who had no oriental temperament even if they dyed black hair and had black pupils. The remaining candidates had not auditions yet.
Wang Yang really caught the ball in order to choose this supporting role. This character has no single scenes, almost all of them are shots during collective action, but she takes the most of the scenes of card counting people, with many close-ups and lines, not just a vase. But he spent more time and effort on this than the heroine! Of course, the heroine is just a phone call.
He had already slapped the table fiercely and issued a final order: "Solve this candidate!" It is just how to solve the problem, but he still has to take action himself.
However, it is obvious that all work should be slowed down. The Lunar New Year is coming, and the earlier one is January 30, the 55th Directors' Union Awards announced on January 30. The 5 directors on the nomination list are exactly the same as the Golden Globe Awards. The award ceremony was held at the Kodak Theater, and Wang Yang was going to attend the suit and tie. Jessica, wearing a black knee-length skirt, attended as her female companion. She hoped to have a truly perfect evening!
As the Golden Globe winner, Wang Yang is naturally the biggest hit, but the result disappointed Jessica very much. Wang Yang's movie fans were also very disappointed. The Union Award was finally won by Robert Marshall, the director of "Chicago". In this way, the ownership of the Oscar for the best director this year became even more unclear, because only 5 times were won by the Director's Union Award but not the Oscar.
Although the Oscars will not announce the nomination list until February 11, in the media's opinion, it is almost certain that Shenqi Yang was shortlisted. Five of the six Golden Globe Best Directors aged 30-39 won the Oscars that year and were nominated for 7 times. Why is the only one this year's Oscar rejecting a young magic director who has such a high voice? Moreover, Shenqi Yang has nominated, and the public has no objection; without a nomination, the opinions are quite large.
So will the 6th director union and Oscar not match this year? Even if there is a 6th time, it must be magical Yang? Now the betting company's handicap should be opened. They made mistakes twice in a row. Wang Yang won the prize in a surprise attack; he did not get the 1.5-fold odds, while Robert Marshall was 3 times.
