Starting from the Avengers' forced hype of "Liu Jingting's Oscar Declaration", the discussion on "Liu Jingting's new movie" started online and offline, until Liu Jingting himself admitted in magazines and microblogs that he wanted to march towards the Oscars. This discussion reached a climax.?

Since Nobel was also captured by a series of doubts, the voice of doubts this time was relatively weak. On the contrary, under the control of some people, everyone's expectations for Liu Jingting are getting higher and higher.

This is a very simple logical relationship. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Then, "Forrest Gump", regarded as the "Oscar No. 1 contestant", was released, and quickly set off a "Forrest Gump whirlwind" around the world. Everyone naturally thought of Liu Jingting and his so-called "breaking prison-themed film work".

This is also a very interesting thing. Generally speaking, people rarely regard a movie as the work of a certain screenwriter, but rather as the "work of director xx". This is clear to the audience with subtitle control.

It seemed as if during the Nobel storm, Liu Jingting's words "I will win the Nobel Prize in three years" made every work qualified for Nobel Prize within those three years related to him.

"Liu Jingting, who has not stopped since his debut."

At the beginning, the media and netizens were still keen on the "Year of Gu Yongsheng" and "Year of Liu Jingting". Later, I found that every year is his year. As long as he is moved and he doesn't have to hire a team to promote it. Being on the headlines lacks any freshness as going to the toilet.

This statement became useless and gradually no one mentioned it.

After that, martial arts novels began to decline, and more and more people began to worry or expect Liu Jingting to gradually disappear from everyone's sight. Unexpectedly, he used the magnificent "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to spread the river of historical novels. He stepped into the more eye-catching entertainment circle and began to produce TV series.

Just as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" entered a dull and long filming period, the Oscar incident emerged, and the editors of some portal entertainment and cultural sections even joked privately that it would be better to keep Liu Jingting on the headlines and update his latest news once a week.

After "Forrest Gump", it is "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon". Because this movie is a martial arts theme, there are more possibilities for comparison with Liu Jingting. The domestic "anti-anti-class" commentators have evaluated the depth of "Crouching Tiger" with "the good style is relying on their power". The reason why martial arts novels are difficult to be elegant is because they lack such serious works that explore people's hearts.

This view naturally fails to stand firm and is soon besieged by readers, writers and other commentators. However, this view itself is in line with the interests and tendencies of some people. It also gathers certain supporters and fights against the vast majority of "preservationists".

"If you don't say anything else, let's evaluate objectively. One of Gu Yongsheng's martial arts novels is calculated and one of them is calculated. Which one can achieve such great results abroad after being adapted into a movie, and may even win the Oscar?"

Now discussing Liu Jingting, the most correct direction and style must be to attract the Oscars, because everyone's focus is on this news.

"Shawshank Redemption" therefore achieved a brilliant result of US$25 million on the day of its premiere, which was comparable to "Forrest Gump". To many people's surprise, the first batch of reviews were also the same as the current biggest rival "Forrest Gump". It showed a one-sided trend. Several well-known film rating websites also gave "Shawshank" a score of comparable to "Forrest Gump".

"I originally entered the cinema with the mood of watching a 'good show', but as a result, I really saw a good show. I have never seen such an exciting prison movie. I am still deeply trapped in the plot and can't extricate myself. Liu Jingting really could have another miracle this time."

“This is the most profound and perfect film to date that elaborates on the beautiful word ‘hope’!”

"The most powerful commentary on freedom, a great work!"

"You can't hold a bird with a vegetation! It's highly recommended for five stars!"

“A feast!”

"A wonderful movie that doesn't require love or beauty!"

Except for a few viewers who said they "expected too much of their expectations for Nobel laureate Liu Jingting", at least 80% of the audience gave positive comments, large-scale praise for film reviews, and continuous high scores of professional film data websites, all clearly show that this is a good movie with real value.

Driven by curiosity, more viewers walked into the theater the next day, and more praise appeared on the online forum.

"Freedom" and "Hope" became the most frequent words to evaluate this movie, and the comparison with "Forrest Gump" gradually unfolded. Until some viewers shouted directly, "This film is more shocking than "Forrest Gump", the exchange of fire between the two began to enter a white-hot stage.

...

"Now the entire American movie world is quarreling about you, how do you feel?"

On the way back to the Sunshine Building from Sunshine Academy, Yang Lilu finally couldn't help but ask Liu Jingting curiously. Since the release of "Forrest Gump", he has become indifferent to the news in the United States. No matter how other editors create topics, he will answer monosyllables and is not very interested.

"normal."

"You're like this, I'm going to bite you."

Liu Jingting suddenly made a face and smiled and said, "Of course I'm very excited, but who knows the result..."

"Which movie do you want to win?"

"Forrest Gump is more likely, but for me, no matter which one, isn't the result the same?"

Liu Jingting pinched Yang Lilu's hand.

Yang Lilu nodded obediently. As long as he can win the award, even if he completes his mother's task, then there will be no one in this world who will oppose them being together.

"Do you think Joe Keli can get completely better?"

Yang Lilu's heart was at this moment. She remembered Qiao Keli whom she had just seen, and asked with concern.

"At least it has made a lot of progress. I didn't know how to talk before, but now I can at least talk to people."

Yang Lilu nodded and said, "She seems to be very familiar with you."

"I have known each other for many years, so I must have left some impression."

The two chatted. Unconsciously, they walked to Yingri Building. As soon as they returned to the office, Aunt Qing pointed to Liu Jingting's desk and said, "Ten phone calls. Three are from Xingyue, and the remaining seven are from the United States. They are all on the note."

"Thank you, Aunt Qing."

"Thank me? I'm almost your secretary." Xu Qing said while typing on the keyboard.

Liu Jingting smiled apologetically, looked at Yang Lilu again, and returned to her seat.

According to Aunt Qing’s message, she called Gong Chengpin back first, communicated about the filming of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that was about to end, and confirmed again the matters related to the release of "Harry Potter".

The calls from the United States were mostly about reporting good news and informing the Oscar application. Liu Jingting called WB Robert first, and then returned to Frank of PML.

"I have already modified the last few scenes of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Send it to you." Xu Qing still stared at the screen and said.

"OK."

At this time, Chang Youdao posted a screenshot of a post from an American film forum about the Oscar predictions of "Forrest Gump" and "Shawshank Redemption" in his work group.

"To put it off topic, now the boss can tell us the surprise, is it "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?"

In fact, as soon as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" came out, several editors guessed six or seven points, and when the movie was actually released, there were two more points. The reason they thought this way was that no one could write a better martial arts in this world except for their own bosses.

"Yeah, yes."

"So you don't even miss the best foreign language film in the Oscars?"

"Did you see it all?"

"yes."

"yes."

The office on the first floor was already excited, and often shouted, "It's so powerful. What a big deal? I'm afraid it's unprecedented?"

"Isn't this what our boss has always been like? Or he doesn't take action. It's a big scene." Wang Jianshan said.

"If the Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film win at the same time, you can apply for another Guinness Record."

"Who knows where the boss's limit is?"

Everyone smiled and shook their heads, feeling both proud and shocked. They have always speculated on what Liu Jingting did with the highest standards, but in the end they found that Liu Jingting was playing higher, bigger and stronger.

So, even if you guess it, you're still surprised.

...

"Forrest Gump" began to be released in other countries in mid-October. The accumulated excellent reputation in the local area has made the movie achieve equally good results overseas. Perhaps the historical feeling is not as deep as that of Americans, but the line "Life is like a box of chocolate, you will never know what the next one tastes" has become popular in the world.

"Shawshank" and "Crouching Tiger" also maintained the same rapid progressive attitude. The former's current rating has begun to lead "Forrest Gump", and the advantage of "releasing" is reflected.

"However, these are not the winners and losers of this battle. Only when you laugh at the end can you laugh the best, and the result will be next February."

In November, "The Shawshank Redemption" ended perfectly with a box office of $550 million. Although it was slightly inferior to "Forrest Gump", it still surprised Hollywood.

With the next Christmas season, the total box office this year will basically break historical records ahead of schedule.

On December 18, the first box office of "Age of Planet" was 42 million, and when "Harry Potter" was released on the 22nd, it just exceeded 100 million.

Then, "Harry Potter" officially launched a box office war and Christmas war with "Age of Planet" with a small victory of 48 million on the first day.

This year can be regarded as the most lively year in American movie history, with the Oscars and the Christmas box office battle. The excitement on and off the play was almost staged simultaneously.

In January, the results of the Golden Globe Awards were announced. "Forrest Gump" won several awards for Best Picture, Best Screenplay and Best Actor. It seemed that in order to balance the award, it was given three awards to "The Shawshank" for Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Best Screenplay adaptation. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" deserves to win the Best Foreign Language Film Award.

Subsequently, the Oscars announced their nominations, "Forrest Gump" and "Shawshank Redemption" were nominated for the best film, but the former's thirteen nominations far exceeded the latter and all other films of this year.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was nominated for both Best Foreign Language Film and Best Picture.

"Rise of the Planetary Age" also has five nominations, and "Harry Potter" remains insulated from the Oscars.

At this time, insiders had already concluded that this year's Oscar could not escape Liu Jingting's pocket.

But the uninformed person began to launch a new round of attacks on Liu Jingting with the Golden Globe Award and Oscar nominations for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

...

On the evening of February 27th local time in the United States (early February 28th, Yanjing time). The new Academy Awards ceremony was held as scheduled.

Since China has been nominated for the first time in the film and Liu Jingting will personally go to the scene to give the Oscars a final blow, the ratings of this year's Oscar Awards ceremony in Greater China will surely set an astonishing record.

For the same reason, the long-term topic warm-up of Liu Jingting and Bluetus will also make this award ceremony the highest-rated in history.

This is a truly and truly eye-catching moment!

Whether it was a coincidence or the program team intentionally arranged, the seats of the crew of "Shawshank's Redemption" and the crew of "Forrest Gump" were connected together. Liu Jingting was in the middle and became the dividing point.

In addition, Bluetus and the crew of "Age of Planets" sat in the row in front of Liu Jingting. The distance between Liu Jingting and Bluetus was within reach.

The award ceremony has not officially begun, and the scene has been scanned several times in this area.

The award ceremony officially begins at 5 pm local time.

Perhaps in order to add another fire to the ratings of this year's Oscars, the program team arranged two Hollywood first-line actors who were shortlisted for Oscars as opening hosts.

After a performance that combines singing and dancing and talk show, the stage "flashback" to the black and white film era in the 1930s and 1940s...
