Chapter 384: Zhou Qing won the Oscar for Best Director again and became a god in one fell swoop!

Leo...Leon?
What the hell!

Little Leo felt as if his brain exploded and he suffocated on the spot.

Even his whole body was shaking uncontrollably and he couldn't believe his ears at all.

it's me?

Is it really me?
Although he heard his name clearly, he kept torturing his soul, unable to believe it was true.

There is no other reason, it's just that 20 years of running as a runner-up was too long, so long that Leo couldn't react for a while.

"Leon, congratulations, you won the Best Actor award! You won the Best Actor award."

Teacher Tang was also stunned for a few seconds, then he hugged Little Leo tightly and roared excitedly beside him.

Although Teacher Tang missed the golden statue, he was indeed happy for Leo from the bottom of his heart.

Putting aside the personal relationship between Tom and Leo, the more successful "The Revenant" is, the greater the bonus it will be for Tom.

Although Mr. Tom only plays a supporting role in "The Revenant", this film is definitely Mr. Tom's heavyweight masterpiece.

"Really? Is it really me? Did I hear it right?"

After Little Leo and Teacher Tang separated, they stared at each other for confirmation again and again.

"It's you, of course it's you buddy, you heard it right!"

Teacher Tang nodded heavily to Little Leo.

“Leon, congratulations, you won the Best Actor award this time as you wished.”

Director Zhou Qing also congratulated Leo with a smile.

"It's really me, that's great!"

Little Leo almost burst into tears.

Damn, it’s not easy, it’s really not easy.

The sadness of competing for an Oscar in the past 20 years subconsciously came to his mind, and Leo almost couldn't hold it in.

Especially the filming of "The Revenant", it was really hard and torturous.

It is no exaggeration to say that this movie "The Revenant" is a record of Leo's suffering.

When filming, Leo gave it his all, relying solely on his obsession with the little golden man to carry him through.

If he doesn't win the Best Actor award in the end, Leo really doesn't know how to face it.

I'm afraid it will collapse directly.

But at this moment, it's all worth it.

Little Leo's nose twitched a few times, and an irrepressible smile appeared on his face.

He was as happy as a three-year-old child, with a smile that came from the bottom of his heart and from the depths of his soul.

Wow!
The entire venue was filled with warm applause.

Little Leo then straightened his clothes, stood up with his head held high, and walked onto the podium that was the focus of everyone's attention.

"Thank you, thank you Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and thank you everyone here."

After receiving the little golden man from the award presenter, Leo glanced around and began to talk.

“I would also like to congratulate the other outstanding nominees, who have also done an excellent job.”

"What I want to say is that The Revenant is the result of the unremitting efforts of our entire crew and the achievement of everyone."

"Also, I want to first thank my good brother Tom Hardy."

The camera turned to Teacher Tang in the audience, who grinned and laughed like a fool.

"Tom, your talent can only be surpassed by my friendship with Mr. Zhou Qing!"

"The history of film is long, and in just these two years you have created new history. You are truly an incredible talent."

Leo is worthy of being the best actor. He just started talking freely on the stage as if he was performing a crosstalk.

The entire venue was filled with laughter.

After talking nonsense for a while, the other party finally started to express his gratitude seriously.

I have been grateful to my first partner since I entered the film industry.

Finally, the topic of global warming and environmental protection was brought up through the lens of "The Revenant", and the overall situation improved dramatically.

Hua Hua Hua.

The applause at the scene became louder and louder.

After pretending to be competitive for three minutes, Leo returned to his seat contentedly, holding the little golden man in his hands.

"Environmental protection? Leon, you are amazing."

Teacher Tang couldn't help but tease Little Leo.

Leo is the first and only person to talk about environmental protection at the Oscars.

“Isn’t this the responsibility we filmmakers should have? We shouldn’t just make movies, right?”

Little Leo raised his eyebrows and spoke to Teacher Tang in a serious tone.

As a result, Teacher Tang didn't even want to pay attention to Little Leo.

There's no one else around now, but you're still addicted to pretending, right?

"Leon, how does the little golden man feel?"

Zhou Qing also looked at Little Leo with a smile on his face.

“Excellent, wonderful!”

Little Leo subconsciously picked up the little golden man, his eyes were about to be drawn, and he was reluctant to look away.

"Director Zhou, thank you for making my dream come true!"

A few seconds later, Little Leo expressed his gratitude to Zhou Qing again from the bottom of his heart.

"You deserve this."

Zhou Qing waved his hand and gave Little Leo high praise.

"Next up is the Best Director Award."

Zhou Qing subconsciously stopped talking to Xiao Lizi and his expression became serious.

Although there was a hint of anticipation in his eyes, overall, he felt a lot more relaxed than last time.

After all, the Oscar for Best Actor is also a very important award.

Since "The Revenant" won an Oscar for Best Actor, the film has been considered a huge success.

It would be great to continue to win the Best Director Award, but even if the worst happens and I don’t get it, it wouldn’t be considered a failure.

Of course, that's just the worst-case scenario.

According to Zhou Qing's judgment, the possibility of not being able to get it is not very high.

After all, the potential of "The Revenant" itself is there, and his own version of "The Revenant" is even three points better than the original.

"The winner of the Best Director Award is... Zhou Qing, The Revenant!"

Sure enough, soon after the award presenter had whetted everyone's appetite, he revealed the final answer.

It was indeed Zhou Qing!

call.

Zhou Qing heaved a sigh of relief and subconsciously smiled.

As I wished, I won another little golden man, not bad.

One Best Actor and one Best Director, "The Revenant" did not win the Oscars in vain, it can be considered a real big harvest!
Zhou Qing was so satisfied that he couldn't express it in words.

"Director Zhou, congratulations, I knew you could do it!" Leo immediately sent a congratulatory message to Zhou Qing.

"This is not fair. You all won the Golden Figure, but I am the only one left to watch..."

Teacher Tang complained, but then laughed, "Just kidding, congratulations, Director Zhou, congratulations on winning the Golden Figure as well."

"Thank you, Leon, Tom."

Zhou Qing greeted the two of them, then stood up and walked onto the stage under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

Wow!
As soon as he received the trophy from the presenter, thunderous applause broke out at the scene.

Zhou Qing raised the trophy in his hand with a warm smile on his face.

"Standing on this stage again, I feel very familiar. After all, I was here just last year. I believe many people still remember me, right?"

"Actually, after finishing Life of Pi last year, I've been thinking about what to make in my new film, but I haven't made a decision yet."

"But when I saw Leon lose his golden statue once again, an idea came to my mind."

"Leon is so pitiful. I want to help him."

The entire venue then erupted in laughter.

Leo's brave attempt to win the Oscars is a highlight of the Oscars that never gets boring.

It’s just a pity that this wonderful highlight will probably never appear again, as it has been completely ended by Director Zhou.

Swish swish.

Many eyes turned to Leo.

Leo didn't get angry when being teased, but laughed heartily.

If he failed to win the Golden Globe, Zhou Qing's words would definitely be heartbreaking, equivalent to exposing Leo's scars.

But Leo has successfully won the Oscar, so this is a good story.

"Thank you to the Academy Awards, you finally gave Leon his golden statue."

"I would also like to thank the Academy of Sciences for once again recognizing and praising me, and for giving me this golden statue once again."

"Of course, I have to thank Leon too. Half of my golden statue is due to him. I really tortured him."

There was another burst of laughter at the scene, and the atmosphere was very joyful.

"We also want to thank Tom. Although he didn't win the Oscar, his performance was also very wonderful."

“Thank you to everyone on and off the set of The Revenant for your hard work.”

"I would like to thank all my friends who have supported me, my family, and my alma mater, Beijing Film Academy."

Another long string of thanks, Zhou Qing thanked everyone he could think of in one breath.

Only then did he walk down the stage in high spirits under everyone's gaze.

"Director Zhou, can I see your Oscar? I haven't seen the Best Director Oscar up close."

Leo became interested and immediately leaned forward, "Of course, you can also take a look at my Oscar-winning actor."

Leo also proposed a very fair exchange.

"No problem, take your time to read it."

How could Zhou Qing refuse? He casually handed the little golden man in his hand to Little Leo.

Little Leo also handed over his own little golden man as he was told.

The two of them began to discuss their respective little golden men aloud with great interest.

Only Teacher Tang's mouth twitched unconsciously.

He felt hurt!

"The award for Best Picture will be presented next."

This is the last award of this year's Oscars and also the most important one.

Zhou Qing certainly had expectations as well, as the value of this award is even higher than that of the Best Director Award.

But now, Zhou Qing has really taken this award very seriously.

With a Best Director award, a Best Actor award, and a small award for Best Editing, "The Revenant" can be considered a huge success.

Zhou Qing was already very satisfied.

If we are lucky enough to win the Best Picture award, it will be double the joy.

But if he really can't get it, Zhou Qing has nothing to ask for.

However, according to Zhou Qing's own judgment, the possibility of winning the Best Picture award again is not great.

"The winner of the Best Picture award is...Birdman!"

The fact was just as Zhou Qing guessed, the Best Picture Award was won by "Birdman" directed by Alejandro.

Overall, it was not beyond Zhou Qing's expectations. "Birdman" was the best film of this year's Oscars in its original time and space.

It is also worth mentioning that Leo's "The Revenant" was originally shot by Alejandro.

After shining at the Oscars this year with "Birdman", he was also expected to win another Oscar next year with "The Revenant".

Just like Zhou Qing at this moment, he has won great prizes at the Oscars for two consecutive years.

I have to say, he is also an extremely awesome director.

But now, "The Revenant" has been snatched away by Zhou Qing in advance.

Wow!
While these messy thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhou Qing also gave Alessandro his applause.

This most basic etiquette and manners are naturally available.

"grateful……"

Alessandro also gave a eloquent acceptance speech under the attention of everyone.

This brought this year's Oscars to a perfect end.

As usual, the Oscars also arranged a grand media interview.

Zhou Qing and other award winners became the subjects of media interviews.

Especially Zhou Qing.

Not only did his "The Revenant" win two heavyweight awards, it also achieved a big harvest at the Oscars for the second time, and made Leo the best actor.

It is full of gimmicks and highlights, and it can be said to be the most popular one.

"Director Zhou, you won the Oscar for Best Director for two consecutive years with Life of Pi and The Revenant. How do you feel at this moment?"

It's this same old question again. Can you try something new?
Zhou Qing complained in his mind while giving a rather routine answer.

"I am honored to receive such an honor, especially to win another Oscar. It is not easy, so I am very grateful to the Oscars for recognizing me."

"You have chosen to strive for an Oscar twice in a row. So, Director Zhou, will your next movie also choose to strive for an Oscar?"

"As you said, I have been striving for Oscars for two consecutive years. I think I should take a break. If nothing unexpected happens, my next movie will be a Chinese-language movie."

"Leonardo has been a runner-up for Oscars for more than 20 years, but you helped him win the Best Actor award through The Revenant. What do you want to say?"

"Leon is an excellent actor. His performance has been obvious to all. I believe he just lacks a little luck. I didn't do anything. It's just that his luck finally turned around."

After being surrounded by reporters for a while, Zhou Qing finally managed to get out.

Of course, the same goes for Leonardo DiCaprio. It is no exaggeration to say that his level in Hollywood is at the ceiling.

This time, after 20 years of being a runner-up, he finally won the Golden Man, so naturally he became the subject of crazy interviews by the media.

The same thing happened at the following reception.

Whether it was Zhou Qing or Little Leo, they all became the most dazzling stars at the banquet. (End of this chapter)
