Chapter 554 won the ultimate award, Best Picture, and swept the Oscars!
"The winner of the Best Picture Award is... "Twinkle!"
The next moment, the answer to the final grand prize was revealed.
The award presenter faced everyone's gaze and read out that extremely crucial name.
"It's us!"
"Great, it's us!"
"It's our 'Instant Universe'!"
Cheng Long, Gong Li, and Liu Yifei couldn't help but cheer, and were as happy as if it was New Year's Day.
Even Zhou Qing, a reincarnated being and a hacker, was so happy that he almost stood up straight.
Good, it’s really good.
As expected, "Telekinesis" won the ultimate award of Best Picture.
Not bad.
It seems that the sky-high public relations fees were not wasted.
This award is enough to make Zhou Qing excited.
You have to know that Zhou Qing has never won this award before.
This is the highest award!
"Yeah, we won Best Picture."
Zhou Qing nodded and smiled at Cheng Long, Gong Li and others.
"I thought I was just here to make a cameo appearance, but you are amazing, Director Zhou."
The smile on Cheng Long's face became even brighter than the moon in the sky, and he sighed with genuine emotion.
What does it mean that after mountains and rivers seem to have no way out, suddenly you find another village with willows and flowers?
That's it.
I thought I had made a wasted trip and was feeling depressed, but who would have thought that I would eventually get good news?
Cheng Long just felt that his mood was like riding a roller coaster.
It was a roller coaster ride.
It was so exciting.
It's simply messing with people's mentality.
"That's wrong, brother. The award for "A Moment in the Universe" wasn't won solely by me."
"Without your and Gong Li's outstanding performance, we would definitely not have won this award."
"It's not really mine, it's really 'ours'!"
Zhou Qing said to Cheng Long with a smile.
Wow!
As a few people were talking about this, thunderous applause broke out at the scene.
Zhou Qing no longer hesitated, but invited Cheng Long and the others: "Brother, Sister Gong Li, and Xixi, let's go and receive the award!"
The Best Picture Award is an award for the entire crew, so naturally everyone has to go on stage together to receive the award.
"Okay, let's go get the award!"
Cheng Long and his friends had no reason to refuse, and they went up to the podium with Zhou Qing with great enthusiasm and excitement.
"Thank you!"
After receiving the trophy from the award presenter, Zhou Qing thanked him.
He turned around and stood with Cheng Long, Gong Li and others.
Everyone stretched out their hands and held together the trophy that symbolized the highest honor.
He also looked at the media reporters in front of him with a bright smile on his face.
Click, click, click!
Click, click, click!
The spotlights immediately flashed, and reporters raised their cameras to capture this precious moment.
"Director Zhou, the stage is now up to you."
After finishing the work, Cheng Long and his friends said hello to Zhou Qing and returned happily.
It is true that the Best Picture award does belong to the entire crew, and in theory, it is awarded to everyone.
But everyone knows who has made the greatest contribution.
It must be the director. To put it bluntly, even if Cheng Long or Gong Li didn't star in "Blink of an Eye", if someone else was in the film, they would have won this award.
Their performance is indeed good, but they are not irreplaceable.
The only person who is truly irreplaceable is the director.
If the original crew was still there but the director was another one, would "Blink" still win an award?
Without a doubt, no.
Even if it's Zhang Guoshi who's replacing him, it won't work. Even if it's anyone else, it won't work.
In the entire Chinese entertainment industry, the only person who is truly capable of winning an Oscar is Director Zhou.
So if Zhou Qing isn't allowed to give an acceptance speech, who else should do it?
Who among them is more qualified than Zhou Qing?
Zhou Qing himself did not refuse.
It was only natural for him to give the acceptance speech.
Zhou Qing held the trophy for Best Picture with confidence, and once again faced the countless filmmakers and reporters at the venue and began to give his acceptance speech.
"This is my fourth time on stage, isn't everyone tired of watching me?"
A humorous opening immediately caused laughter at the scene.
But even though they laugh, many people are extremely envious and jealous.
It's too much to go on stage to receive awards four times at one awards ceremony.
A good award ceremony turned into Zhou Qing’s solo show?
Special grandma's.
If the first two times, Best Editing and Best Screenplay were insignificant minor awards, then the next two times are both heavyweight awards.
But they were all taken by Zhou Qing.
Director Zhou is a guy who really messes with people's mentality.
"It's okay. I'll speak faster this time."
"First of all, I would like to thank the Oscar organizing committee and the jury. I have won the Best Director Award three times, but this is the first time I have won the Best Picture Award."
“It’s really a completely different experience.”
"Thank you for giving this award to the film "The Blink of an Eye". I feel very honored and proud to be the director of this film."
"Of course, we can't forget Brother Cheng Long and Sister Gong Li. Even though I just thanked them once fifteen minutes ago, I still want to thank them a second time."
“Thank you again for the wonderful performance.”
"And my wife Liu Yifei, I want to especially thank her here."
"She is my biggest motivation and source for making this movie well."
"Finally, I would like to thank all the staff on and off the stage of 'The Blink of an Eye'. This award is mine, but it also belongs to you!"
"Thank you to my alma mater Beijing Film Academy, thank you to my teachers, thank you to my parents, thank you everyone!"
There was another dry thank you, but also another thunderous applause.
Amid the high atmosphere at the scene, Zhou Qing strode down the stage with his head held high.
After the final closing process, this year's Oscars came to an end with "Television" winning a resounding victory.
Zhou Qing, Cheng Long, Gong Li and other main creators of the crew all had beaming faces.
I truly felt what it means to be in high spirits.
To be honest, "The Instant Universe" really won this time.
Before the Oscars, the film had already begun showing in many parts of the world and the box office was extremely encouraging.
Especially in China, it has set various records one after another and is a definite super hit.
It also sold very well in Hollywood.
Of course, it can't be compared with "Barbie", but it is also a blockbuster movie.
It can be said to be extremely successful commercially.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, it swept the entire Oscars!
Wow, I really won. (End of this chapter)
