The crew of "Mulan" went on stage with surprise. They received the Golden Dragon Award trophy from Brother Long's hands as well as a huge prize of 10 million USD.
It was worth mentioning that Brother Long smiled and asked, "Actually, I don't want to ask, but according to the organizer's request, I still have to ask you. Are you sure you want to accept the 10 million USD prize?"
"Uh … Do we still need to confirm this?" The director of "Mulan" was stunned and then asked in confusion.
"It seems like the director doesn't understand our rules!" Brother Long smiled and said, "The Golden Dragon Award trophy is given to the winner, but the prize money is given to the person recognized by the Golden Dragon Award. If you want to be recognized by the Golden Dragon Award, you have to sign this contract. After receiving the prize money, you can no longer participate in any Oscar ceremony! "
"There's such a contract?" The director was shocked.
"Uh, before you came, didn't you know about the existence of this contract? This contract was stipulated like this last year! "Cheng Long asked in surprise.
"Well, we're just here for fun. We don't know about these things!" The director said awkwardly, "Aren't you targeting the Oscars too much?"
"Oh right, the purpose of the Golden Dragon Award was to defeat the Oscars and create the fairest award in the world. This is something the whole world knows!" Brother Long was very straightforward. He had already signed a contract with Daqian Entertainment and became a member of the Daqian Entertainment. He was completely tied to the Daqian Entertainment and the Golden Dragon Award.
Brother Long had never dreamed of winning an Oscar anyway, because it was an honor that Hua Xia actors could never achieve.
"Then let me ask, if I refuse the prize money, what will happen to the prize money?" The director asked curiously.
"Well, according to the rules, the prize money will be given to 'Bug Agent', which is ranked second!" Cheng Long said.
"Then forget it, I must accept the prize money!" The director immediately said, causing the audience to burst into laughter. Then he signed his name on the contract and led his crew to receive a huge bonus of 10 million US dollars.
Everyone knew that it was just a performance and a joke on stage. No one could refuse the 10 million USD prize money. Even if the director could refuse, what about his crew?
What about the producers behind the crew?
Wake up, this is 10 million USD. Only a fool would give up 10 million USD for an Oscar.
After the Best Original Music Award, it was followed by the Best Art Director Award. No one had received this award in the previous year, but it was different this time.
In the end, five movies were nominated. In the end, the production teams of four of them came. In the end, the winners successfully received the trophy and the prize money.
This was followed by Best Costume Design, Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Effects, Best Editing, Best Makeup Design, and Best Photography.
Other than the Best Cinematography award, which was won by Saving Private Ryan, the rest of the awards were all won by The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
Although "Lord of the Rings" was Da Qian's own movie, no one at the scene felt that there was anything shady about it. This was because "Lord of the Rings" was worthy of its name in terms of costume design, visual effects, and sound effects. After all, it was very difficult for a realistic movie to win against an excellent fantasy movie in these aspects.
After all, for a fantasy movie, the costumes had to be designed from the ground up. The visual effects and special effects were also very important. Moreover, the Lord of the Rings was done very well. No one could be picky about it.
However, when it came to the Best Adapted Screenplay, the situation that everyone had been waiting for finally happened.
A total of five movies were nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay. They were The Thin Red Line, Master Strategist, Gods and the Beast, Godzilla, and I'm Crazy About Mary.
The final winner was I'm Crazy About Mary. However, the crew of I'm Crazy About Mary didn't come to the scene … It wasn't that they didn't come at all. For example, the male lead and two supporting actors were actually there.
It was just that they were among the other movie crews and didn't represent I'm Crazy About Mary.
However, even if they did, it didn't matter. Because according to the rules of the Golden Dragon Awards, the entire crew had to have at least 10 main members present.
Therefore, the three people at the scene could only watch as Gods and the Beast replaced I'm Crazy About Mary in second place and took the huge prize of 10 million USD.
This made the entire crew of I'm Crazy About Mary go crazy, including the three people at the scene and those who weren't there but were watching the live broadcast.
Among them, the producer of I'm Crazy About Mary fainted in front of the live broadcast.
He originally thought that he had a high chance of winning the Best Adapted Screenplay Award. Especially after some of the best movies were attracted by the Golden Dragon Awards, he had a higher chance of winning an Oscar.
Therefore, the producer went against everyone's wishes and brought his crew to the Oscars, hoping to win an Oscar.
However, in the end, the Best Adapted Screenplay Award was taken away by The Romance of the Old Sandman. I'm Crazy About Mary didn't win anything but loneliness.
But who would have thought that the Golden Dragon Award, which they had originally thought nothing of, would actually be given to "I'm Crazy About Mary"? And that golden US $10 million was all gone!
What angered the producer the most was that the Golden Dragon Award was chosen by the global audience, which meant that they were recognized by the global audience. But, the Oscar was awarded to that piece of trash, 'The Love of the Sandman'. What sin had he committed to do such a stupid thing?
What made the producer even more depressed was that he was fired by the company the next day. The reason was that he had caused the company to lose the 10 million USD bonus.
Therefore, the producer became a complete hater of the Oscars. Every time he met his friends, he would madly curse the Oscars for being dark and shameless.
Although everyone knew that he was incompetent, he wasn't lying. The Oscars were indeed dark and shameless.
Perhaps one person's anger wouldn't change anything, but when many people's anger gathered together, it was a change that couldn't be ignored. The Oscars' reputation was quickly slipping into the dark abyss.
After the script was adapted, the Best Original Screenplay award went to "The Truman Show", and the Best Supporting Actor and Actress awards went to "Saving Private Ryan".
After these awards were given out, all the awards worth 10 million USD were given out. Next were the awards worth 20 million USD.
The first award to be presented was the Best Animated Film Award. This award was undoubtedly won by the movie "Mulan".
The highest grossing animated film of the year was actually Pokemon: Green Caterpillar Evolution! However, because of the plot, the movie's reputation was very bad.
In particular, the scoring requirement was to be done on the spot after watching the movie. The audience was basically upset by the cliffhanger, so naturally, they couldn't give Pokemon a high score. Instead, this benefited Mulan, allowing it to take away the huge prize of 20 million USD.
The crew of "Mulan" once again rushed onto the stage and hugged all the hosts. They really did not expect that they would be able to leave with a loan of 30 million USD. This was definitely a gift from the Dragon God!
