Chapter 549: "A Blink of an Eye" leads the Oscar race and becomes the biggest favorite!
They acted immediately after Crown Pictures and Legendary returned to Hollywood and launched comprehensive public relations work.
This is not the first time Zhou Qing has done this.
There is no need to say much about the two works "Life of Pi" and "The Revenant" that won the Oscar, as well as the previous "Barbie".
There are even films like "The Martian" that didn't win any major awards.
When it comes to competing for the Olympic medals, we do have extremely rich experience.
After Director Yang returned, he got started right away.
We quickly connected with some public relations companies that we had worked with before, and some corresponding work was quickly started.
Make preliminary preparations for specific public relations.
But as for director Zhou Qing, there is no need to rush for the time being.
He would wait until December, when the public relations reception officially started, before setting off.
As for now, Zhou Qing plans to cherish this last opportunity and stay at home with his wife and children.
"Junjun, Dad is back."
"Papa~"
When he returned home, the little guy's eyes lit up when he saw Zhou Qing.
He ran and crawled towards Zhou Qing, revealing an instinctive sense of closeness.
"Come on, my good son."
Zhou Qing waited until the little guy ran to his side, then happily picked him up and spun him around twice.
The little guy was so happy that he couldn't stop laughing.
The little guy is now over two years old. Unlike at the beginning when he couldn’t call dad, he is now very close to Zhou Qing.
Every time Zhou Qing came home, the little guy would be as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and would play around Zhou Qing happily.
"Good son, Dad will spend the next two days with you."
Zhou Qing poked the little guy's nose with his hand, feeling apologetic and reluctant.
Oscar public relations is a huge project and cannot be completed in a short period of time.
In particular, director Zhou Qing is of utmost importance and indispensable.
"Yes, Junjun, stay with your dad. Dad will be going on a long trip in two days."
Liu Yifei also joined in, teasing the little guy together with Zhou Qing.
"Zhou Qing, I won't go to the Oscars PR this time."
After playing with the little guy for a while, Liu Yifei pondered for a moment and spoke to Zhou Qing in a serious tone.
It would be fine for Zhou Qing to go as a father, but he is indeed indispensable as a director.
But if Liu Yifei goes again, who will accompany the little one?
It’s impossible that both mom and dad are going to Hollywood for a few months and leaving the little one alone in Beijing, right?
Although there are grandparents and grandmother around, as well as a special nanny, the little one can be well taken care of.
But how can parents feel at ease?
This is not just ten days or eight days, but several months.
"That's what I thought, Xixi. You should stay and accompany Junjun."
Zhou Qing immediately nodded and agreed.
This was actually what he was planning. Even if Liu Yifei didn't mention it, he was planning to discuss it with Liu Yifei.
Anyway, we have myself, Jackie Chan and Gong Li in charge of Oscar PR, so we don’t need Liu Yifei either.
This matter was agreed upon so happily.
"Come on, Junjun, Daddy will play with you for a while."
After the exchange, Zhou Qing happily played with the little guy again.
Sounds of joyful laughter continued to be heard.
"Sissi, I'm leaving."
"Come on, Junjun, say goodbye to daddy."
In December, Zhou Qing reluctantly said goodbye to his wife and children and boarded a plane to Hollywood. Of course, not only him, but also two top stars, Cheng Long and Gong Li, accompanied him.
The group of people were full of vigor and enthusiasm and once again launched a charge towards Oscar.
"Mr. Wilson."
"Mr. Daoge."
"Mr. Robert."
Several people threw themselves into one public relations cocktail party after another and started to get busy.
"It is revealed that "The Blink of an Eye" is currently doing Oscar PR, preparing for the next Oscars."
"After Barbie, director Zhou Qing is once again aiming for an Oscar with Snap."
"'Blink' is up for an Oscar again. Can Director Zhou create another success?"
Both Hollywood and Chinese entertainment have begun to report this incident extensively.
The circle became lively.
There was a heated discussion about whether "Telekinesis" could win an Oscar.
Although Zhou Qing’s previous film “Barbie” did not achieve great success at the Oscars, it only won some minor awards.
But no one dares to underestimate this "Blink of the Universe".
In any case, Zhou Qing has won two Oscars for Best Director.
This fully proves Zhou Qing's ability in competing for the Olympic medals.
So who can guarantee that "The Universe in a Moment" won't work this time?
Facts have also proved that Zhou Qing's strength is indeed very impressive.
On January 1, the 23th Academy Awards announced the nomination list, and "Telekinesis" once again became a hot favorite.
It won a total of 11 major awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actor!
Almost all the major awards were won.
Cheng Long and Gong Li were very happy, their mouths were grinning from ear to ear.
The two have been working in the entertainment industry for their entire lives, but have never starred in an Oscar-winning movie.
Of course, Jackie Chan has won the Oscar for Lifetime Achievement before, but that is a completely different situation.
Not to mention that Cheng Long was also nominated for Best Actor, which is an even greater honor.
Even Jackie Chan has never achieved this honor.
The same is true for Liu Yifei.
The girl has actually starred in many box office hits in Hollywood, and is very capable in terms of box office.
Not to mention compared with those Chinese actresses, even in Hollywood, her record is very impressive.
But the girl is really lacking some artistic bonus.
"Television" received so many Oscar nominations, which made the girl's career come full circle.
To be honest, even if "The Blink of an Eye" ends up being a failure.
But having so many nominations is also a huge bonus for the girls.
Not to mention, the possibility of "Blink of the Universe" failing to achieve anything is low.
So the girl was in a very happy mood.
"Zhou Qing, do you think that "The Instant Universe" can win the grand prize?"
The girl couldn't help but call Zhou Qing as soon as possible.
"Put it this way, Sissi, I am very optimistic about this."
As a person who was reborn, Zhou Qing gave this answer with full confidence.
You should know that in the original time and space, "The Universe in a Flash" won a total of 7 awards.
These include such heavyweight awards as Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actress.
It can be said that he was the biggest winner of the Oscars that year.
Zhou Qing is still looking forward to this potential to win an award. (End of this chapter)
