The announcement of the 78th Academy Awards shortlist has caused a storm in the film industry in China, and even blocked the limelight of the box office dark horses of "Lost in Thailand" for a while.

Because that was an Oscar, in the hearts of many Chinese filmmakers and even audiences, that award is the highest award in global films, and Ye Sumang also believes so.

Of course, Ye Sumang did not mythize the Oscars like many people.

After all, this award still only represents the aesthetics of mainstream films in that country, and it has its own limited surname.

Even Oscars' understanding of some art films is more than that of many of the top international film festivals similar to Cannes and Venice, but compared with its influence, these seem a bit insignificant.

The United States is a place where movies flourish. There is a saying that Hollywood films belong to the United States, but they also belong to the world. This sentence alone can summarize the influence of Hollywood films in the world. Hollywood is also a holy place in the minds of filmmakers all over the world.

American film represents the highest level of the film industry on this planet.

The Academy Award, the highest award for judging American films, is naturally the world's top award. Its process is fair and rigorous, and the result is also full of suspense and transparent. In addition to its popularity, it does not seem to be an exaggeration to call him the highest award for global films.

This time, "Brokeback Mountain" directed by HK director Ang Lee was nominated for Best Director and Best Film, while the 21-year-old young director Ye Sumang, from mainland China, was nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film for "If? Love"!

At the same Oscar, two Chinese people appeared at the same time, which dated back to 1994. At that time, Ang Lee was still among the shortlisted names, and Ye Sumang was also very familiar with the other name. It was his senior brother Chen Kaige. That year, they were both nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, but unfortunately they both lost in the end.

The second time two Chinese people were shortlisted for the Academy Awards at the same time was the 78th Academy Awards not long later!

Ang Lee has won the Best Foreign Language Film, and this time he will work hard to a higher best director. What is even more surprising is that Ye Sumang, who is only 21 years old, finally made it to the shortlist. If he can really win the Little Golden Man, he will also create an Oscar historical record!

Because there is a conflict with the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics, the awarding time for this Academy Awards has also been postponed. It is a coincidence that it happened to be March 5th, and this day was also Ye Sumang's life. If he could win a medal on his life, Ye Sumang felt that it would be a wonderful thing to think about it.

As for the two directors who were shortlisted for the Oscar this time, HK naturally reported on Ang Lee. He flew past Ye Sumang, and the mainland of China was the opposite. He reported on Ye Sumang in a large way, and Ang Lee chose his surname and was ignored by them. This is a regional dispute. No film in mainland China has won the best foreign language film. As soon as the news of Ye Sumang being shortlisted, many movie masters have high hopes.

Even Ye Sumang received a call from a leader of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television when he was in the office, and gave Ye Sumang a message in an official accent.

Because in the eyes of these senior officials, Ye Sumang's award was also a political achievement in their post.

"Su Mang, what do you think about the Oscar-nominated Best Foreign Language Film Award?" In Ye Sumang's office, Liu Yifei was using a book to roll it into a microphone and interviewing Ye Sumang in a decent manner.

"I don't have any opinion." Ye Sumang looked at Liu Yifei with a funny look. This girl actually brought glasses to pretend, which seemed a bit out of character.

"How can this work?" Liu Yifei was obviously dissatisfied with Ye Sumang's answer, so she hurriedly approached Ye Sumang and taught like a little teacher: "If you want to say, you are very excited, this is the greatest affirmation of you..."

"But I'm really not excited now." Ye Sumang spread his hands and replied helplessly.

He was really not excited. Except for the excitement he was at the beginning when answering the phone for a while, his mood calmed down a lot. After all, he was just a shortlisted, and it was not the final award, so just be happy.

"Oh, your temper, that is, I will be angry to death if you change someone." Liu Yifei sighed and put away the 'microphone' in her hand in disappointment, but when she said this, she couldn't help but show a hint of pride.

Because the man in front of me who has been given countless praises by the outside world now belongs to me!

Thinking of this, the girl's chest was filled with happiness.

At this time, Ye Sumang did not answer Liu Yifei's words, but carefully sorted out the documents in his hand. At the end of the year, the company was eager to deal with a lot of things, such as the box office issues of "Lost in the Road", as well as the income of "Struggle" and "Sword and Fairy II". In addition to these, there are some private matters, such as couples' rings. Ye Sumang was completely concerned about this matter. Almost every night when he returned home, he had to read a bunch of books about jewelry design.

At the beginning of the Oscar nomination, Ye Sumang was not stupidly waiting for the news.

In the United States, he doesn't know any media, but his publicity channels are not bad at all.

After all, Ye Sumang has the largest dating website, Facebook and the largest video website, Youtobe. If he wants to make his movie reputation, it will be a breeze to create momentum for winning the award.

As the list was announced, Ye Sumang naturally exercised his rights and used the resources of two companies to promote it for the first time. It can be said that in just a short period of time, the names of Ye Sumang and "If? Love" were imprinted in the minds of American people in a brainwashing manner. As for the subsequent evaluation, Ye Sumang didn't know, but he had created this momentum, and it depends on the final result.

"Su Mang, you can take me and Shishi with you in the CCTV building later." Half an hour later, Ye Sumang put down the documents at hand and was about to take a break, Liu Yifei immediately seized the opportunity and begged.

After hearing what Liu Yifei said, he remembered that he was going to visit Huang Bo today at the CCTV building.

Speaking of which, since his transformation, Huang Bo has been proud of himself. Not only has his songs sold well, his record sales volume is nearly one million, but his negative image has also been wiped out, turning into a mature and good man with deep affection.

Although there is no interview for works this year, his popularity has increased significantly due to the popularity of the two songs. The "Crazy Racing" he filmed has entered the final stage. Ye Sumang has seen the sample film, which is very good. I believe that Huang Bo's fame will increase again after the release.

That's not all. Good things seem to have come to Huang Bo in a series of ways. It was not at the end of August that Huang Bo received an invitation from CCTV's Spring Festival Gala, asking him to take the big stage to watch by hundreds of millions of viewers across the country to sing the song "Because of Love".

CCTV is the highest stage in the hearts of Chinese people, and Huang Bo is no exception. The moment he received the invitation, he knew that he had finally become a "salted fish turn over" and was extremely happy.

This kid is also lucky. In the cruel CCTV program selection, he advanced all the way, and the rehearsal will basically determine the final list, so Huang Bo strongly invited Ye Sumang and others to go to CCTV to cheer him up.

After looking at the watch, it was only twelve:30. Huang Bo said that his rehearsal started at 2:00 in the afternoon, so there was no hurry.

"Go to have dinner first, go to CCTV after dinner and call that girl Shishi." Ye Sumang gently stroked a square on the itinerary, which read "Watch Huang Bo's rehearsal".

"Okay, I'm right!" Liu Yifei walked out of the room with a smile, obviously going to inform Liu Shishi.

The three of them settled for lunch in a restaurant near CCTV. After dinner, they headed towards the TV station building. At this time, the TV station building was already full of reporters, and the arrival of Ye Sumang and the other two caused a stir.

"I'm sorry, I'm just here to support Huang Bo." Ye Sumang stopped the media while walking inside.

The media were soon stopped outside the door by a large number of security guards.

"Mr. Ye, Miss Liu Yifei, Miss Liu Shishi, please give us the photography equipment you have on you to save." After entering the building, a security guard stepped forward and said.

Ye Sumang nodded and cooperated to hand over the things to the security guard. It can be seen that the Spring Festival Gala has reached the final preparation stage, and the security guard's measures have gradually increased, for fear of any information being leaked.

Just after the three of them handed over the phones to the security guard, Huang Bo also came to the hall. Ye Sumang had called him when he was outside the door just now.

At this time, Huang Bo was wearing a white suit, and his original ordinary face seemed to look a little handsome against the background of the costume. Seeing Ye Sumang arrive, Huang Bo immediately smiled and punched Ye Sumang in the chest with a smile.

"Why did you come? You will miss the stage later."

"Didn't this come here?" Ye Sumang also smiled and punched Huang Bo. The relationship between the two was the best, and it was a real sharing of hardships. Ye Sumang would never forget that Huang Bo and him had hundreds of thousands of dollars in just a few days after they met him. And this trust may never be encountered again in his life.

"Well, it's very punctual. There are still ten minutes before two o'clock, so you don't have to worry." Liu Yifei spoke from the side.

Looking at the young couple, Huang Bo patted his forehead in annoyance, and he really couldn't afford to offend him.

"Okay, it's your brother Huang's fault. Let's go and go to the lounge. Your sister is still waiting there." Huang Bo said with a smile, and when he mentioned "sister", he couldn't help but show a hint of happiness on his face.

When the three of them came to the lounge, Huang Bo's girlfriend Xiao Ou was there. At this time, Xiao Ou had quit his job and became Huang Bo's exclusive living assistant. Not only Huang Bo was included in this lounge, but also many other artists.

When everyone saw Ye Sumang's appearance, they were stunned. Then people kept standing up and greeting respectfully.

"Director Ye, hello..."

"Director Ye, long time no see..."

"Everyone is free, I'm just here to cheer for Huang Bo." Ye Sumang nodded to everyone with a smile. He basically didn't know all the artists in this lounge, so naturally there was nothing to talk about.
Chapter completed!
