Rebirth Turn

Hollywood is the holy city of global movies, and it is the place that can best reflect the recognition of acting career and the corresponding commercial value. Almost all world-class actors want to succeed and even become famous here. Chinese actors may be here because of racial issues It's been especially difficult here.But even so, over the years, batch after batch of movie stars have made their way in Hollywood with their flexible skills, superb acting skills and star charm.

It's just that when most Chinese movie stars entered Hollywood for the first time, most of them played supporting roles or even soy sauce roles with only one or two shots.It's not like Lu Yan is the absolute male lead right away, but there are definitely only a handful of them.

With four heavyweight movie stars in his hands and a blockbuster movie that hit the box office all over the world, Lu Yan is now well-known in the country and has an absolute front-line status.So at such a moment when the news broke that he was going to Hollywood to make a film, people in the country just had a lively discussion, but they were not too surprised.It seems that people will not be too surprised no matter what kind of news breaks out of Lu Yan today.

The days of working in Hollywood can never be described as pleasant.Although he played the lead role, Lu Yan did not get the corresponding respect in America, where racial discrimination is serious.His humility is not easy to use here, but instead becomes a reason for others to mock him for being cowardly and cowardly.

Of course there will be no discrimination on the surface. This country expressly opposes racial discrimination. If you publicly express that you are a racist, you will be condemned by everyone, but this just shows the seriousness of racial discrimination in this country.

There have never been many private provocations.It wasn't until Lu Yan secretly taught a white actor who provoked him the most, and let everyone know that this beautiful oriental man is not easy to mess with, that the harassment gradually subsided.No matter when and where, people with hard fists always have more capital to speak.

During the filming time of more than half a year, Lu Yan almost disappeared from the public's field of vision, only a few occasional commercial endorsement activities proved his existence.Of course, there are also those loyal and lovely fans who have been thinking about his news. From time to time, someone will break the news on the official website about the filming progress of the movie and the small tidbits about going to Hollywood to visit the set.

It wasn't until the news came in January that "Hometown" had been nominated for multiple Oscars, that Lu Yan and the crew of "Hometown" re-entered the public's field of vision, and became hot news on the entertainment page until before the Academy Awards ceremony.

If Hollywood is the holy land of movies that movie stars all over the world yearn for, then the Academy Awards must be the award that all actors are most eager to win. It is not too much to say that it represents the highest achievement of world movies in the minds of many people.

The Oscars red carpet has always been a "battlefield" for killing films. Not only are the female stars competing for beauty, some are gorgeous and noble, some are mature and elegant, some are simple and sexy; In short, there are those who are handsome and handsome.On this short aisle, the statuettes have been eclipsed as a foil, and the handsome men and women are the protagonists.

Over the years, the Oscar awards ceremony has been a kind of unspeakable pain for the Chinese film industry, and there are very few people who can attend. Even if a few people walk on the red carpet, most of them are reduced to soy sauce roles.There are very few people like Lu Yan and the crew of "Hometown" who can be shortlisted to participate in the competition.Also because of this expectation, there are many oriental faces on both sides of this year's Oscars red carpet, and many fans in the audience tried their best to get seats and participate.

When Lu Yan appeared on the red carpet with Li Ran gracefully in a well-fitting suit, the audience applauded and cheered endlessly, and his momentum was no less than that of any Hollywood superstar who had walked by before.Once again, it proves the irrefutable truth that "Chinese are everywhere".

Before entering the venue, Lu Yan and Li Ran were interviewed by Chinese media.The interview questions were nothing more than the feelings of being shortlisted for the Oscars, and whether they have confidence in winning the award. The answers from the two were also very official. They not only expressed their desire to win the award, but also expressed that they would let nature take its course if they didn’t get it. The feeling, in short, is watertight.

Instead, a reporter suddenly asked, "If Mr. Lu wins the award this time, will he be able to solve the mystery and tell us who your lover is?"

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips and smiled, and replied, "Maybe."

Nowadays, everyone is very familiar with the way of presenting awards at the award ceremonies of major film festivals. The list of winners is sealed, and no one has the right to know the results before the award presenters open it. It is the first of the Oscars.As the originator, it is natural to give full play to this tradition, and the whole awards ceremony is full of suspense.

"Hometown" received a total of eight nominations.In addition to the most important Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor, there are also five awards for Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Soundtrack and Best Visual Effects.

Among the first five nominations, it finally won the three categories of Best Visual Effects, Best Cinematography and Best Art Direction.For a film that has achieved such a high box office around the world, it is not surprising to win these three awards, and the truly important awards are yet to come.

When the Best Actor award was presented, Lu Yan remained calm, still smiling, but secretly clenched his hands.Su Mo, who was sitting beside him, felt his nervousness and quietly held his hand.Lu Yan tilted his head and smiled at him. In fact, Su Mo's nervousness was no less than his. Lu Yan could already feel that his palms were slightly wet.

Su Mo was invited to attend this awards ceremony as one of the sponsors, but he didn't walk the red carpet.

The award presenters on the stage had already opened the sealed letter. Lu Yan tightened his hand and held Su Mo's hand forcefully. At the same time, he felt the strength from the other party's hand.

The award presenter slowly read out a person's name in an exceptionally slow tone, which was a bit long.Obviously, that wasn't Lu Yan.

In an instant, several emotions swirled in Lu Yan's heart, both sad and relieved.

With a burst of applause at the scene, a British actor rushed to the podium with excitement and excitement.Lu Yan and Su Mo also applauded along with the crowd.

To say not disappointed would be a lie.Even though I know very well in my heart that what I need to get this award today is not a little miracle, but when I am really sure that I will pass by, I still feel unavoidably frustrated.Maybe it's because the previous awards went too smoothly. If he even won the Oscar, to be honest, Lu Yan would feel that it was too heaven-defying to not need anyone else.So, it's good to take it easy, I'm still young, and there are plenty of opportunities.

Su Mo held his hand secretly again, leaned into his ear and whispered comfortingly, "It's okay, there will be another time."

Li Ran, who was sitting on the other side of Su Mo, also cast a comforting look.

Lu Yan smiled slightly and nodded, indicating that he was fine.

Then it was Li Ran's turn to be nervous, because the best director award was going to be presented next.

Lu Yan, who was reborn ten years later, knows better than anyone that Li Ran will become one of the most famous domestic and even international directors in the future. He also knows that he is one of the very few Chinese directors who won the best picture at the Oscar. It's just that the film he won the award at that time was by no means "Hometown". This film was the product of the butterfly effect after Lu Yan's rebirth.

Therefore, Lu Yan can't judge now whether Li Ran can win the Oscar for Best Director here in advance.As Lu Yan got more and more involved, the development of this world has become more and more different from what he knew before, and more and more changes have taken place.But for Lu Yan, this is definitely a good thing.This shows that he has truly integrated into this world of time and space, and he would rather regard his rebirth as a lengthy and slightly real dream.And reality is a hundred times better than dreams, which is great!

When the award presenter read Li Ran's name, the future world-class young director jumped up excitedly, turned around and hugged Su Mo who was sitting next to him, and Su Mo also hugged happily He patted his back lightly and said congratulations.Lu Yan also clapped and stood up. At this time, he was only concerned about being happy for Li Ran, and he didn't mind the other party hugging his lover so intimately.After a while, Li Ran let go of Su Mo, turned around and hugged Lu Yan, but this time the time was much shorter.After that, he shook hands with the surrounding film industry colleagues one by one, and then got up and walked to the podium.When turning around, Lu Yan also noticed that the corners of his eyes were a little wet.

Today, Li Ran was dressed in formal attire, which was a rare occasion. His messy hair was finally subdued temporarily with the efforts of the hair stylist, and he looked energetic and handsome.In fact, although Li Ran is a director, his own external conditions are quite good, but it is hidden by his usual slovenliness.If he usually looks like a normal person and doesn't need any unspoken rules, there must be a large number of actors and actresses who want to throw themselves into his arms.

Li Ran stepped onto the stage to take over the statuette, which symbolizes the highest honor in the film industry, from the award presenters. After paying tribute to each other, he began his acceptance speech. His English accent is pure and his pronunciation is nice. Standing on this podium, I feel very proud. First of all, I would like to thank the movie "Hometown", the story full of romanticism and passion, and the protagonist and the lovely residents in the story, although they are not Doesn't exist. So, I should say thank you to us filmmakers for making them exist. Thanks also to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences for this honor, everyone on the set, everyone on the crew , especially Lu Yan. He is both the producer and the protagonist of this film, as well as the copyright owner of the film script. It can be said that without him, this film would not have been born, and I would not be here at this moment. When we decided to make this movie together, he said that we would be successful. Now, we really succeeded! Finally, I would like to thank my family, my friends and all the fans who have watched this movie and supported us , thank you, I love you!"

After his speech, there was another burst of warm applause.

Those who are familiar with Li Ran will know that this passage is already the most sensational and emotional acceptance speech he has ever said.It can be seen that he is really excited and excited.

After getting down, Li Ran waved the trophy at Su Mo and Lu Yan, and hugged them gently again.

Soon, the time for the announcement of the best picture will come, and all the relevant personnel shortlisted for this award will get nervous. This is already the last award at the awards ceremony, and it is also the most important award.

When the award presenter slowly opened the sealed bag, everyone's heart was raised. Finally, he smiled and announced the winner of the most important award tonight.When the English translation of "Hometown" was spit out from the mouths of the award presenters, the scene was silent at first, and then all the crew present cheered amidst warm applause.Lu Yan and Li Ran who were sitting closest embraced each other excitedly, and then they hugged Su Mo who was sitting next to him.

When accepting the award, all the crew members present stepped onto the podium. Lu Yan, the protagonist and producer, and Li Ran, the director, stood in front, and the others stood in a row behind them.

As a representative, Lu Yan took over the statuettes from the award presenters. The award presenters shook hands and hugged each of them to express their congratulations, and then left the stage to them.

Lu Yan stood in front of the microphone, took a deep breath, and then said with a smile, "Thank you! This is a great honor. I want to tell everyone standing beside and behind me that you are all heroes. We interpreted "Hometown" "This story. And now, this story has been recognized. The best narrator of this story, the biggest hero is the director Li Ran."

Li Ran took the microphone, "Thank you everyone, especially Lu Yan. Without him, this movie would not have been born, let alone meet all the audience. Thanks to everyone who worked hard, and thank you for this movie."

Then the microphone turned around in the hands of everyone standing on the stage, and finally returned to Lu Yan's hand, the smile in his eyes deepened, "For me, it's not just that this film won this award. It is the greatest honor, and it has more significance. Because now, I can finally say that I have a little qualification to stand beside someone. I always feel that I am a very lucky person, because I can be in In my best years, I met the most important person in my life. From acquaintance, acquaintance, to love, and now we will be together forever, like a perfect romantic story in the world, I think it is the most brilliant My director can't make such a beautiful story. I thank him for his tolerance and understanding of me, especially his unreserved love for me. Now, I want to say something to him that I have buried in my heart If it takes a long time, "

Speaking of this, Lu Yan paused for a moment, his eyes passed through all the obstacles and fell firmly on Su Mo who was sitting in the auditorium, infinitely affectionate, infinitely lingering, and then smiled and changed to Chinese word by word The words continued slowly, "Sansheng is lucky, thanks to your blue eyes! My love, Su Mo!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Yan walked down the podium first. He held the statuette trophy, stared at Su Mo opposite him, and walked towards his lover step by step without hesitation.

Su Mo was stunned for a moment. When he realized what Lu Yan wanted to do, he stood up from his seat, walked to the side of the aisle, stood there, and waited for his lover to approach with a smile.

In the eyes of everyone with surprise and admiration, under the blessing of the spotlight, Lu Yan walked up to Su Mo and handed him the trophy with both hands.Su Mo slightly lowered his eyelashes, smiled and tied the trophy, and Lu Yan embraced the trophy together with him.

Lu Yan wrapped one hand around Su Mo's waist, put one hand on his shoulder, lowered his head slightly, and kissed him on the lips.Su Mo didn't struggle at all. The moment Lu Yan approached, he closed his eyes naturally and greeted him, like they had done countless times between them.

It wasn't a lingering kiss, and there wasn't even a deeper movement, it was just that the lips were tightly pressed together, looking so pure and beautiful, just like everyone's yearning for love.

Applause, laughter, cheers, whistles, and the sound of "pop" brought by the flashing lights continued to ring around them, and they remained unmoved, immersed in the world of only each other.

This moment is definitely the climax of the entire award ceremony. Fortunately, the award just presented was the last one. Otherwise, it would definitely be a difficult challenge for the host to present the next award in such a warm atmosphere.

This year's Academy Awards ceremony came to an end under such unexpected and extraordinarily romantic circumstances.
