Chapter 977: The Attention of All
From an awkward position to the center of attention, this is Chen Hao's situation at the Oscars.
The red carpet of the Oscars has always been a place of competition and a place where the world's entertainment media focus their lenses. Last year, Chen Hao was indeed brilliant, but he was not absolutely famous in this industry. The role of the Joker is great, but the positioning is there, and the inherent deficiencies cannot be made up.
This year, many people are waiting to see his jokes. Normally, if you feel unhappy, just refuse the invitation of the Oscars. Every day, a large number of artists refuse to attend the Oscars, and they are all relatively popular. They don't need to take advantage of the Oscars. They didn't have any good works last year, so they didn't come here to serve as foils for others.
From the day Chen Hao agreed to attend, the media was incubating news, and even drafted the first draft. Once he was marginalized or made a fool of himself at the Oscars, some information could be added to the first draft and sent out as quickly as possible.
In the eyes of some people, "The Shawshank Redemption" has become Chen Hao's lifeline, but more people are still rational. He doesn't need a lifeline. He has the confidence that when this film is released, everything will be reversed.
Today, Chen Hao is wearing a European-style suit jacket with gold edges, a white shirt, no tie or bow tie, no accessories, and even his watch is taken off. His work this year is just a marginal dish at the Oscars. The red carpet time arranged for him at the beginning is also relatively early. In the past few days, he has been communicating with him, and he has not asked to change the time. He still appeared on the red carpet at a relatively early time.
As soon as he appeared, the scene was boiling.
Last year's photo and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", including the "Prison Break" series of American TV series, gave him the title of the most "sexy" man. His perfect figure is talked about by the world. He has truly achieved the ultimate in perfect fitness. He looks thin when he puts on clothes and is full of muscles when he takes off clothes.
Hard-core sunny facial features, confident and charming eyes, skin condition that can withstand any lens test, tall and golden body shape.
When Chen Hao first became famous internationally, most of his female fans were young fans. Last year, he began to include mature women in his fan sequence. Now, people no longer think that he just has a good appearance. "The Shawshank Redemption" perfectly put him in the sequence of film masters. Although he still needs at least one or two good movies to consolidate his position, at least now, you can no longer simply use an artist to position him.
All the news in the past has been turned up.
When preparing for "The Shawshank Redemption", he was compared with "Prison Break" fans and was disdained by many people in the industry. Under tremendous pressure, he faced the challenge and faced constant provocations. What he said to the camera was: "This is destined to be a classic movie."
Now, he has not only fulfilled his promise, but also let the world see that art films can also get the box office value of commercial films. Its North American box office has strongly entered the top ten in the history of North American box office, and this data is not the end. Before this film came out, even if you took out the biggest directors and producers in Hollywood, they wouldn't dare to say that they could make a literary film with actors you can choose at will and get a box office of 300 million in North America.
Chen Hao did it.
So when he appeared on the red carpet of the Oscars, not only fans cheered for him, but also the hosts, media reporters, on-site staff and security, and industry leaders who entered the venue were all paying attention to him, and many of them cast admiring eyes on him. It's amazing. There are people who are good at acting and directing, but to complete such a transformation at such a young age and produce such a work, you can only say that he is a genius, and in this industry, God has given him a job.
If it were still the era of film, then Chen Hao's appearance would be enough to take at least half of the film on the media at the scene.
With a confident smile, he walked calmly on the red carpet. He stopped when he wanted to, walked when he wanted to, and stopped as long as he wanted. It was not that he wanted the media to take more pictures of him, but the shooting area where the media gathered at the scene made a sound that was no less than the excited fans' screams.
Smith is the security director. He received the order before and was in charge of the scene. If MOUSE stayed on the red carpet for a little longer, he would immediately take people to signal him to leave quickly. He didn't need to do anything extra and could get 20,000 US dollars. Smith didn't care that the other party was his daughter's favorite star.
There is no blind spot on the red carpet at the scene. Ten media outlets cannot cover all positions, so what about twenty or thirty? So anything that happens on the red carpet will be recorded by the camera. If you are a popular artist, all of this will be exposed with your fame.
With Chen Hao's reputation, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If you really let the security on the red carpet make an 'invitation' to you to leave quickly, it will definitely be photographed and the media will make a big fuss. This is not us. Some of the domestic unknowns in the international community, who are so high-end in our media photos, are actually the ones that no one cares about on the red carpet. Some of them are scheming and want to stay longer on the red carpet, but they are chased away by the security. It's all common. There are similar people in every country. If they don't pay special attention to it, even if it is accidentally photographed, some media will not take it seriously at all. The only thing they do is to delete this paragraph directly. Why should he (her) be photographed? ), we don’t even know who it is, the artist is from Asia, is it Chinese or Korean, forget it, I’m not interested in knowing, just delete it.
A few days ago, Smith had no choice but to secretly return the deposit, let alone 20,000, and he didn't dare to pay 200,000 now. Not to mention how much the money has helped him, a "Shawshank Redemption" came out , Chen Hao not only became a favorite again, but his fan base expanded at an incredible speed. If he really wanted to 'invite' him to leave quickly on the red carpet, his fans would not take action, and the media at the scene would not spare him.
He can stand here as long as he wants. This is Oscar's internal arrangement. The time for the subsequent guests to come out can be adjusted anytime and anywhere according to the scene. Before the adjustment, he was given fifty more time to prepare than others. seconds.
Artists who are not lacking in exposure do not need to show themselves crazily on the red carpet. Everything is in order. I took a few POSS in the photo area for everyone to take pictures, and then strolled into the awards hall. There are few people in the crowd. Everyone stops and chats in the rest area and corridor rest area first, and some of them will enter the lobby. It is the largest event in the film industry in the world every year. No one here should regard themselves as others who must pay attention. It's normal for you to be ignored here. The number of media that can come in is limited, and the footage is also limited. Not to mention the many artists who came in at this time, not one of them was serious in the entire award ceremony. lens, that’s normal.
It stands to reason that Chen Hao has little to do with this year's Oscars. "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" was nominated for some technical awards, which has nothing to do with him. The pure award guests are artists who need exposure or need exposure temporarily. None of them are related to him, but his treatment is that of a nominee for major awards such as Oscar for Best Actor. From the moment he enters the scene, there are not only temporary interviews, but also the camera is always looking for him.
More importantly, he saw some real big names in the industry. Some came over to say hello, and some greeted each other. Chen Hao is a guy who does not admire anyone, so even though he saw Spielberg For super big names like Martin Scorsese and Cameron, he doesn’t have any special performance. When people say hello to him, he also warmly chats with them. Compared with last year, these people never took the initiative to say hello to him. Maybe, everything is different this year.
The red carpet outside is still going on, and there are already some people inside who have been officially introduced to Chen Hao through some connections. Third Master Hu Gudong and Hu are here today. Tang Feng and Kuang Zhonghai also have connections in their respective families here. They all came, and they introduced several groups of people to Chen Hao, including the bosses, shareholders, senior executives of the film company, the heads of angel investments, and some big figures behind the scenes in the industry.
Paramount's top management also came today, and they also acted as 'bodyguards' for Chen Hao for a while. They are one of the top eight, and their presence is never missing at the Oscars. This year, they came with great pride, because everyone Everyone knows that "The Shawshank Redemption" will be the most popular award-winning film at next year's Oscars. They did not expect that they would earn so much this time. The amount of money is easily negotiable. What they care about most is that this time as "The Shawshank Redemption" The potential benefits for investors and distributors of "The Shawshank Redemption" in this film.
A person who is not competing for awards this year has become a hot favorite at this year's Oscar ceremony. What many people admire more is Chen Hao's self-confidence. He dared to directly say that my movie will be a classic, and then he dared to schedule it at the Oscars. The front of the movie is finished, and today’s scene is the one that attracts everyone’s attention. Nothing happened to me this year, but my movie was not released during the registration period. Next year, my movie will compete for Oscars, and it will also get some box office revenue from the second release. After a year, there are still some people who are willing to walk into the cinema to watch it when it is released for the second time; but if they don't, they will die and live. Without this courage, how could he become a leader in the world of film circles at such a young age?
For his sake, Oscar made some adjustments to the set procedures. The award he presented was changed to the large-scale Best Supporting Actor. You must know that although he was the winner last year, the award he presented was not this as usual, but It was a technical award, and the award guest assigned to him was also an old acquaintance.
