The script has a huge impact on any movie. Even the visual effects blockbuster cannot be separated from the help of the script. This is the cornerstone of the formation of a movie.

The Oscars divide script awards into two categories, one is the Best Original Script Award and the other is the Best Adapted Script Award. The main difference lies in the source of the script story.

Like "Pi's Fantasy Drift", scripts are basically adapted and created based on existing novels, stories, comics, games, biographies and even news reports.

It can be restored from the original style, or it can be created by subversively.

As for the original script, it is easy to understand. There was no prototype before this script. It was entirely a new story created by the screenwriters themselves, such as "Lost Tokyo", "Juno", "Inception", etc.

It is worth mentioning that the scripts of sequel movies will automatically be classified into adapted scripts, because Xu Ji must have been created based on the previous work.

To give a simple example, "Inception" is an original script, but if Nolan filmed "Inception 2", then if the latter wants to select the Oscar, he can only be in the best adapted script project.

In recent years, adapted scripts and original scripts have basically occupied half of the market, and the two awards have also increased the chances of winning the screenwriters.

In the past few decades, almost all Oscar-winning works have been adapted from novels, while dramas have been mainstream.

Novels are about telling stories with words, and films adapted from novels are more likely to be favored, with the sources of games, dramas, and comics.

This seems to be a good thing for "Pi's Fantasy Drift", because it is indeed a plot movie based on the novel.

But for Zhang Chu, this is a huge disadvantage!

The Oscars have a lot of awards. In order to avoid the fact that laymen choose experts, each professional can only participate in the selection of their own professional awards.

The Actors Branch Select Performance Award, the Directors Branch Select Directors Select Photography Award, and the Screenwriter Branch will naturally select Screenwriter Award.

The problem is that Zhang Chu is not a member of the screenwriter union at all, even though he once won the Emmy Award and Golden Globe Award for the Best Screenwriter Award for limited series for "Detective Sherlock".

No one thinks that the selection of Oscars’ awards is fair, and everyone has selfish intentions and will subconsciously choose familiar people or do things.

Especially when the quality is not distinguished, human factors naturally occupy the main factors.

Zhang Chu is a foreigner, non-union member, Asian, and just over 20 years old, she is a world-renowned bestseller writer and the number one in the writer rich list!

If such a so-called pride of heaven could easily get the Oscar nomination, how could tens of thousands of unknown old people in the screenwriters' union be willing?

Jealousy is the most unbreakable side.

No one wants to see writers who can earn tens of millions of dollars a year come to the screenwriter field to grab the highest prize while taking away the highest award. Doesn’t this prove that their abilities are not as good as this young person?

This ticket is not easy to make!

For many filmmakers, winning an Oscar nomination is the highest honor recognized by colleagues in this major!

Even large studios like Warner Bros. cannot guarantee that they will help Zhang Chu run for the Oscar nomination, so there is no penny for the 8 million US dollars in public relations funding to spend on the best adaptation script.

If Li An wants to compete for the best director, he has to pay a portion of it out of his own pocket, let alone Zhang Chu.

"Don't worry too much. We can first look at the weather vane and outpost. The high quality of the film is well hidden, and the difficulty of adaptation is there, not every screenwriter can easily control it. What's more, now that the Oscar judges have expanded their recruitment, we Asians have also increased their voices in it. If the quality is good, you can concentrate your strength and build momentum!"

Children who can cry have candy to eat.

Among the Oscar judges, there are definitely the most white people. In recent years, the black rights movement has been increasing, and many Oscar-winning works have been labeled as politically correct.

The white people are divided into the American Gang, the British Gang, the Irish Gang, the Australian Gang, etc., and they will not work together at all.

The audience reputation and box office of "Boyant Pi" are the confidence of Zhang Chu's competition.

Zhang Chu's head was a little buzzing. He was very grateful to Li An for his suggestions. He did not have the guidance of the Hollywood awards presenters for a long time, so he probably didn't know many things.

"Director Li, I have to go back and think about it. Can I tell you the answer again afterwards?"

These things are not something you can decide when you are in a hurry, and you need to discuss and plan carefully with the team.

Li An patted Zhang Chu on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll introduce you to a reliable public relations. Now we Asians, especially Chinese, must unite. Okay, sit down and watch a movie."

"My friend is behind, I'm not in front."

What's more, sitting in the front row of the IMAX Cinema to watch a movie, I guess my head will have to be tilted, and it will definitely be very uncomfortable.

The host on the scene was ready, so Zhang Chu quickly trotted back to the back so as not to block others' sight later.

Zhou Kang asked in a low voice: "You have been chatting with Li Yan for so long just now, what are you talking about?"

Zhang Chu pointed quietly at the audience in front of him. They were all representatives of major media and film critics. The reporter said, "It is not convenient to say here. I will go home to chat later. I will have to call Sister Ye at that time."

Ye Shumei had watched the movie at the Hollywood internal preview, but she has not attended the premiere at all. She stayed at home and played with her husband and children.

Zhou Kang received the signal and nodded in agreement.

The premiere of "Pi's Fantasy Drift" is very high, and stars from all walks of life come to support it. Even the host is the leading actress of TV-6!

"Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to participate in the China premiere of Warner Bros. The movie adapted from the novel of the same name by Zhang Chu is hailed as impossible to be visualized, but director Li Yan will transform it into possibility. It will take two and a half years to shoot and produce it, and it will be presented in front of us soon. Please mute your phone and don't record the screen. The movie will start soon."

The premiere here is very simple, which is to let people watch movies instead of singing, dancing or learning calligraphy, and it is not allowed domestic stars to come on stage to talk about their feelings.

Everything goes from simple to the essence!
