The best original screenplay award was lost. In fact, Zucker predicted it before.
Is the script of the sixth sense not good?
Isn't it better than "the catcher of the mind" written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck?
no
The most important thing is age!
Matt Damon is 28 years old;
Ben Affleck is also 26 years old this year;
On the contrary, Zhuke is 21 years old, which is only 20 years old.
Throughout the nearly 100 years of Oscar history, there was a time when Patty Duke, who was only 16 years old, won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 1962; At the age of 20, Timothy Hutton won the best actor Oscar in 1980; Tatum O'Neill, only 10 years old, won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 1973;
Did you find out?
After entering the 1980s, no one who can win the Oscars is less than 20 years old. Basically, all of them are over 30 years old, and a few of them are over 25 years old.
Oh, no!
There's one out of the line!
Anna Paquin, a 12-year-old Canadian girl, won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 1993. Well, this is the only exception.
Therefore, Zhuke failed to win the best original screenplay award in the 70th Academy Awards, not because the script was not good enough, but because he lost to his age!
Moreover, there is an important factor - box office!
A group of old people in the college have rigid thinking. They often discriminate against the kind of films that have achieved high box office. They stubbornly believe that high box office films are not artistic enough and do not meet the criteria for awards. Look at those films that have won high box office. How many of them have won several important Oscars?
Sobbing ~!
"Psychic Sixth Sense", produced by Wald pictures, has a global box office of 690 million US dollars, which is 20 million US dollars higher than that of the original space-time film.
With such a high box office, it is more difficult to win the prize!
For example, Peter Jackson, the director of the famous trilogy of the Lord of the rings, which reaped $3 billion at the box office worldwide, was also baptized by the trilogy before the old men of the Academy compromised and awarded him an Oscar for best director.
James Cameron's "the Titanic" won the Oscars not because of the college's stubborn recognition, but because of its unprecedented high box office and its amazing contribution to the world-famous Hollywood films.
Otherwise, do you really think the college's diehards will like the film?
Time goes by
The next development, like the history of Zhuke's last life, did not change because Zhuke's little butterfly incited his wings.
Titanic became the big winner of the 70th Academy Awards, with 14 nominations and 11 Oscar winners.
Director Kao Meilong himself, also on the podium, holding up the little golden man, shouting: "I am the king of the world!"

"I'll wait and see. Next year I'll get a gold medal!"
Zucker set up a flag for himself.
.......
The next day.
Zucker got up early to wash up, and then, in the presence of the American media, signed the cooperation terms of "memory fragments" and "Sparta 300 warrior" with the representative of Carlos foundation, Rio.
"Mr. Wald, in the 70th Oscar ceremony which ended yesterday, you didn't win the best original script award. Do you think it's unfair and dark?" A female reporter first asked.
Zhuke: "the..."
Another middle-aged male reporter asked, "Mr. ward, I'm a reporter from New York entertainment. I also think you should win the best original script award. Do you have anything to say?"
what the fuck!
Although I'm young, you really treat me as Hello Kitty!
This is a blatant trick for me?!
"I think there's something wrong with your questions. I didn't win the award. What's the relationship with the judging college? Thousands of senior filmmakers come to judge. What's behind the scenes? If I didn't get the award, it just means that I'm not good enough. "
Voice down, around a mass of media reporters, suddenly a Leng.
A photographer muttered: "how can a person who can earn more than $1 billion at this age be a young man?"
In fact, the media reporters present also knew about the site.
However, the reason why they insist on asking these questions is just to have a try. If Zhuke says something he shouldn't say, then these are the headlines!
They have enough unruly!
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is a press conference for the cooperation between Wald pictures and Carlos foundation. It's not an Oscar ceremony, so I won't answer any irrelevant topic here."
"Also, in tomorrow's newspaper, I don't want to see the so-called black story about me and Oscar, otherwise don't blame me for suing you!"
"Don't doubt it!"
"With more than a billion dollars, I have this energy."
When he was upset, he gave them a direct warning.
The cooperation is as follows:
First, the Carlos foundation invested US $6 million in the movie memory fragment, accounting for half of the total production cost of US $12 million, and obtained 40% of the net profit share in North America and the box office share in South America;
Second, Carlos foundation invested 20 million US dollars in the film "300 warriors of Sparta", accounting for one fourth of the total production cost of 80 million US dollars, and obtained 20% of the net profit share in North America and the box office share in South America;
In terms of cooperation, many minor items are also involved.
what?
Why are investment ratio and income ratio not equal? What's more, only the box office receipts of North America and South America, not including those of Europe, Asia, Australia and other overseas countries and regions?
Most importantly, profit sharing does not include offline DVD and video market, nor does it include peripheral authorization.
ha-ha!
What's so strange!
Layman into Hollywood, you do not pay tuition how line?
Wald pictures has enough conscience. It has not set up many traps and hidden rules in the issue of net profit sharing. If it were DreamWorks or any of Hollywood's top six film companies, they would not care who you are. They would certainly pit a large number of investors outside the circle in terms of accounts and distribution.
Don't say you're the richest man in Mexico, you're the richest man in the world, and those guys will do the same!
In the Titanic project, Zhuke invested 85 million US dollars, accounting for 25% of the investment share, but Zhuke still sent special personnel to review each box office data repeatedly.
If you don't stare at them all the time, they'll play tricks!
"In Hollywood, if you don't have a few minds, what will you be like?" He sighed.
.......
A few days later.
With the gradual end of the "Oscar effect", the box office market has returned to stability.
Wald film's new film "fatal bend 2" also entered the fan audition and publicity. Of course, there is no need for Zhuke to worry about these things. Victor, Kevin Fitch and others are responsible for everything.
As for Zhuke himself, under the guidance of Alexander, he began to investigate several large and medium-sized publishing houses in the United States to further expand the territory of Golden Dawn entertainment group.
Let's go one more time.
It's quite sudden that it's on the shelves today, and the minister himself is not prepared. Tomorrow is Saturday, the minister will fight for a wave!
