Chapter 284. [Dark Horse](2/2)
Anne Hathaway's eyes were moist and excited in her seat.
Fatty Gao Jiabao almost jumped up.
Rabbit Bill hugged Fat Jack tightly...
In Hong Kong, Asia, countless people started shouting, setting off firecrackers and roaring!
In the Yi family's villa, the parents were all crying. They were crying hard. They didn't know why they were crying. Logically speaking, their son had won the award, so he should laugh!
…
At the same time, Kerkorian, one of the largest gambling companies in the United States and the gambling king who also runs MGM Pictures, was furious in the office and threw things, "Damn it! How could this happen?!"
Because he had just received news that in the peripheral betting area, there was a new bet of nearly 10 million US dollars on Yifeiyang winning!
In other words, at the end of the betting period, someone deliberately set up a trap, concealed it from their own eyes and ears by spreading the bets, and bought a large bet on Yi Feiyang.
Judging from the way these bets are dispersed, it doesn't look like a single person, but like a "collective crime". Yes, it should be a large group of people who are doing it. Unfortunately, their reputation has capsized in the gutter. This time I'm afraid it will happen.
I'll make you vomit blood!
Oscar betting is not fun!
…
Oscar jury panel, VIP conference room.
"So, is it wrong for us to do this?" Qiao Sen, one of the chairman, asked the guys next to him.
"Of course it is!" Horace, who behaved more radically, said loudly, "First, we all voted our conscience and did not bury our conscience! Second, we just used those damn bookmakers to get what we needed.
Oscar funding! So, we’re doing something right!”
"Yes, that's right! Oscars should not only belong to the United States!"
"That Chinese Yi is indeed the best director!"
"To hell with those speculative bookmakers!"
"Hahaha, let's open the champagne to celebrate!"
"Yes, as the Chinese say, it's rare to kill two birds with one stone and achieve a complete victory!"
…
The camera returns to the Oscars ceremony.
Yi Feiyang held up the Oscar statuette with a somewhat excited expression. If you remember correctly, in his previous life, director Li Bian was nominated for Best Director for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at this Oscar, but in the end he failed and was expelled by a white American director. After stepping down, it was not until five years later that he won the Oscar for Best Director for "Brokeback Mountain" at the 78th Oscars!
Five years!
Five years in which Chinese directors gradually stood up!
Five years!
Five years since Chinese directors slowly entered the world stage!
Oscar, how long have we been waiting for?!
How long have we been dreaming of this Oscar?!
But now, as a Chinese director, Yi Feiyang has won this rare honor five years in advance!!
Chapter completed!
