Sleeping in math class, my status as a scholar is exposed

Chapter 357 Oscar Award
She also didn't expect that the Consul General of the United States in Shanghai would pay attention to her, a newcomer in the entertainment industry.

Then he asked naively: "Mr. Consul, I have a curious question."

"Miss Ding, please tell me, I will know everything and say everything."

"Mr. Consul, I'm still a newcomer, and I've never released a work. Where did you hear about me?"

Benjamin couldn't help laughing when he heard the question.

He looked at Ye Duan, and then replied: "Miss Ding is really humorous, as a person who has lived in the magic city for many years, how could I not know your name?

Although you are still a new actor, you have already been on the trending searches several times. Not only are you the number one actress in the new film directed by Han Han, but the Shanghai Academy of Drama also has a scholarship named after you, the amount is as high as 10 billion yuan Well, this kind of explosive news, who doesn't know, who doesn't know in Shanghai? "

"So that's the case. It seems that Mr. Consul often pays attention to these entertainment news, haha."

Ding Xueer didn't think there was anything wrong.

He smiled and toasted Benjamin with a glass of wine.

Ye Duan secretly became alert.

As an American, Benjamin knows all kinds of news about China.

This guy not only knows brother Han Han, but also knows that he has made a new movie.

I even know that the heroine of the movie is a little fairy.

Even small things like the establishment of scholarships at the Shanghai Academy of Drama are very clear.

It seems that he must be paying attention to all kinds of news in Shanghai.

This person is not simple...

Ye Duan was wondering.

Benjamin laughed out loud.

"Miss Ding doesn't know that my attention to these entertainment news is actually influenced by my family. My father is a comedian. My childhood dream was also to be an actor. Unfortunately, I failed to achieve my wish. Now I am a diplomat. .official.

But my brother managed to get into the movie business, and he's now the head of the governing board of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which judges the Oscars. "

"Oscar prize?"

Ding Xueer cried out in surprise.

Startled Benjamin.

Said in fluent Chinese: "Yes, Ms. Ding, my brother is now the chief judge of the Oscars. You seem to be very interested in this award?"

Ding Xueer was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

I can't say that my movie was shortlisted for an Oscar, so I need brother Benjamin to help me, right?
This seems too utilitarian.

Ye Duan was also very surprised when he heard Benjamin's words.

This is simply a good thing like a pie in the sky!
The Little Wives movie just happened to be nominated for an Oscar.

Benjamin's brother happened to be the presiding judge.

His words certainly carry weight.

If he can be bought, hehe, wouldn't the little wife be more sure of winning the Oscar?
thought here.

Ye Duan immediately said to Benjamin: "What a coincidence! Mr. Consul, you may not know that the new film directed by Han Han starring Xue Er happened to be shortlisted for this year's Oscars for Best Foreign Language Film, which is Best International Film She came here to apply for a visa this time just to attend the Oscars ceremony."

"Oh my god, can't it? My brother mentioned this to me a few days ago. He said that there is a big summer movie that was shortlisted for this year's Oscar for Best International Film. It turned out that Ms. Ding starred in it?"

"Yes, Mr. Consul, do you think this is a coincidence?"

"It's really a coincidence. How about this, Mr. Ye, I will tell you and Ms. Ding my brother's phone number. After arriving in the United States, you can contact my brother John. I believe it will help Ms. Ding to be selected for the Oscar."

Benjamin's words were very reserved.

His brother might help Ding Xueer win the prize.

But it's hard to say whether it will win the award in the end.

The main thing is how to contact his brother.

Ding Xueer is pure-minded and doesn't know the meaning of this sentence.

Ye Duan heard the meaning.

I felt relieved.

It seems that the Benjamin brothers are also standard American successful people.

Profit is the most important thing everywhere.

Hahaha.

Ye Duan wrote down the contact information of brother Benjamin.

Then he expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Consul, for your kindness. After we arrive in the United States, we will definitely pay a special visit to Mr. John."

Food and wine.

Benjamin called a driver to take the two home.

On the way, Ding Xueer snuggled into Ye Duan's arms and asked, "Uncle~ Are you really going to find that Mr. John?"

"Of course, since he is the chief judge of Oscar, why don't you go to him? If you give him something sweet, maybe you can bring back a statuette this time."

"Didn't the Internet say that Americans would not accept benefits?"

Ye Duan touched his little wife's face and chuckled: "Wrong! They will not only accept benefits, but also accept benefits openly."

Ding Xueer frowned, pouted and asked, "No way? Uncle, you must be making me happy again. Who would be so stupid as to openly accept benefits?"

"You don't understand this. The United States is a money society. Even the election of the president will openly raise donations, let alone other things. Take what happened tonight as an example. Why is the Consul General of the United States so polite to us? He has already left work And help us with visas, and let us stay for dinner?"

"Because you are the richest man in China."

"That's right, it's because I'm rich that Benjamin regards me as a guest. This is not his personal preference, but the general ethos of American society. They especially worship rich people, from the president to the beggar If I go to America this time, if I ask to meet their president, they will probably arrange it. So tonight Benjamin not only took the initiative to make friends with us, but also introduced his brother to us."

Ding Xueer was still a little puzzled, tilted her head and asked, "Is there any benefit for them to do this? Although you have money, you may not necessarily give it to them."

"It depends on whether they can create value for me. If they happen to have something I need in their hands, for example, if Benjamin's brother John can really help you bring back the statuette, I'd be happy to give him a little favor."

Ye Duan originally said this to make his little wife happy.

Had she won an Oscar for her first film.

What an honor this must be!

At that time, Little Fairy will become the most famous new actor in China and even the world.

It's sure to turn red!
Lay the groundwork for superstardom.

Isn't this the wish of my little wife since she was a child?

Unexpectedly, Ding Xueer was unhappy.

He said angrily: "I don't want you to do this uncle. If you give John a favor, it's just opening the back door. I don't want to take this shortcut. It's fine if I can win this time, but it doesn't matter if I don't. I want to use my strength to reflect my value, and I don’t want to engage in these small tricks behind my back. Uncle, can you promise me?”

A little wife's words.

It made Ye Duan feel embarrassed.

Children's minds are really simple.

I thought there really was absolute fairness in this world.

How did she know that an event like the Oscars would naturally have genes for injustice.

Its selection seems fair, but in fact it is still a tool for American cultural propaganda and export.

Most of the award-winning films are American blockbusters that promote American values.

So it is difficult for foreign films to win awards.
