"It's hard, it's not impossible, right?"

Zhao Gang-ling said, "Didn't director Feng Gang win many Oscars at the time?"

"That's because director Feng Gang is a genius."

Leonardo smiled, and some naughty eyes flashed in his eyes, "If you have watched the movie directed by Feng Gang, you will find that he is indeed a genius... By the way, are you smoking a cigar?"

"Cigar, occasionally."

Zhao Gang-ling said.

Leonardo walked to the drawer beside him, took out a small box, opened the box, took out a cigar and threw it to Zhao Gangliang, and said, "The best Cuban cigar, specially used by the Castro family, was given to me last time."

Zhao Gangliang took the cigar and followed Leonardo to follow the example.

In fact, he doesn't smoke this thing because it tastes weird. However, it is obvious that cigarettes are a powerful tool to bring two men closer together, so Zhao Gang-ling naturally lit one.

"You can't get all the Oscars awards by doing well, you know?" Leonardo said, spitting out a smoke ring.

"Know a little."

Zhao Gang nodded.

"Films that can win Oscar nominations have achieved the ultimate in one aspect, such as the nomination for Best Actor, and the acting skills of all actors are perfect, without any flaws. At this time, how to decide the ownership of Best Actor, this has to start from the movie. There was a movie many years ago. I don't know if you know it, it was called "Lord of the Rings". I remember it was in 2001. That year, he was very popular and was selected as the biggest hit, but he eventually lost to "Beautiful Heart". Do you know why? It's because of what I said earlier, Oscars choose

The movies must have widely accepted value." Leonardo said this, paused, and said, "There are several movies in this Oscar that are mainstream and very safe. Compared with the not-so-mainstream and safe "Dragon Slaying", they have a higher chance of getting a jury vote. So, if you want to lobby next, you can try to canvass the Best Foreign Language Film Awards. If you strive for this award, the success rate will be very high. By the way, you have a very strong opponent this time, in the Best Foreign Language Film Awards."

"Is "My Fox Fairy Wife 2"?" Zhao Gang-ling asked.

"Well, they are currently competing for this award. According to the information I have received, they have won the trust of many people. Moreover, the company that belongs to this movie still has a lot of energy in the United States." Leonardo said.

"What if we want to grab other awards?" Zhao Gang-ling asked.

“This can only cause one result.”

Leonardo said, "Your votes will be dispersed. If you can get 200 judges, then you can only compete for one best foreign language film and you may get all the votes for these judges. If you compete for other awards, then these votes will inevitably be dispersed, which is not a good thing for you."

"That's why we need to lobby, right?"

Zhao Gangliang stood up with a smile and said, "Mr. Leonardo, I have come from China for a thousand miles. It's not just for the award of the best foreign language film. I have ambitions. Our movies, our directors and actors also have ambitions. We hope to fight hard on every award. In this way, even if we may not get anything in the end, we will not regret it."

Leonardo stared at Zhao Gang-ling for more than ten seconds, then suddenly laughed and said, "I seem to see your father more than ten years ago. Hahaha, although I admire your attitude very much, I have something that is not very good to tell you. In addition to the fact that your movies do not match the main theme of the Oscar, you have a bigger problem."

"Oh." Zhao Gang-ling looked at Leonardo.

"The chairman of the presidium this time is Thomson, that guy, I don't like the movies in China." Leonardo said, blinking at Zhao Gangliang.

"Thomson."

Zhao Gangliang frowned and said, "It doesn't seem that it's a big impact if he doesn't like it. As long as the judge likes it, don't you."

"You don't understand this."

Leonardo said, "Thomson, as the chairman of the presidium, has great power, and his connections are wide. His attitude can determine the final general's ownership to a large extent. So, if you can convince Thomson, you may have a one-percent chance of competing for other awards. However, as far as I know, Thomson is an old stubborn person and he will not be so easily persuaded."

"Mr. Leonardo, we believe that if we can get your help, our success rate should be much higher." Zhao Gangliang said.

Leonardo was obviously very comfortable being slapped by Zhao Gang-rye's flattery. He smiled and said, "Hahaha, in terms of connections, Thomson is actually the same. However, it's useless to flatter me, because he has more power than me. However, I promise that if you can convince Thomson, I will attend some of your events with Thomson."

Zhao Gang's eyes lit up and he said, "See together."

"certainly."

"Mr. Leonardo, I believe that it won't take long, you, me, and Mr. Thomson, will definitely have a drink together."

After Zhao Gangyan finished speaking, he raised the wine glass in his hand.

Leonardo smiled and cried a glass with Zhao Gang, and then drank it all in one go.

In order to welcome Zhao Gangliang to visit, Leonardo also cooked a lunch for Zhao Gangliang and the others. During the meal, Leonardo also called a few friends from the rich area to come over.

After chatting with the queen Zhao Gang-rye, I learned that the people who came here were also people in the jury.

Zhao Gang-ling was naturally grateful to Leonardo. Leonardo seemed to care about nothing and did not care about some of the benefits of Zhao Gang-ling, either open or secret.

Zhao Gang-ling and others left Leonardo's home in the evening. Leonardo sent them to the door and watched them leave before returning to his home.

"Go and check Thomson's information right away."

Zhao Gang-ling sat in the car and said, "In all the ways you can, missile Zhang, if we can handle Thomson, we might really be able to win a few prizes back."

"Well, I'll go check now." Missile Zhang said excitedly.
