The Japan Academy Awards, also known as the Japanese Oscars.
It can be said that this award is almost entirely copied from the American Academy Awards, from its name to the award process and ceremony.
The award organizers almost copied this world-class North American award to Japan by pressing Ctrl+v.
However, unlike the authority of the North American Academy Awards, the Japanese Oscars has been subject to doubts since its inception.
The reason for this has to do with the organizers of various Japanese film awards.
First of all, because Japan lacked specialized entertainment newspapers and periodicals in its early years, many Japanese film awards were founded by sports newspapers or magazines.
This is not to say that these awards are unprofessional. On the contrary, many of these newspapers have been organizing awards since the last century. For example, the film awards of the "Junbao" have been held since 1919. Their authority and fairness are highly guaranteed.
However, there is a fatal problem with these awards, that is, because they are sports newspapers, their influence is limited to Japan. In addition, with the rapid development of television and the Internet, the influence of traditional media such as newspapers is gradually declining.
In order to cope with such situations, and also to make the influence of Japanese film awards known to the world.
In 1978, led by Dentsu, the Nippon Television Broadcasting Corporation (NHK) and Japan's four major film companies (Linbao, Shochiku, Toei, and Kadokawa Pictures) collaborated. After three months of planning, the Japanese Oscars, the only film award in Japan to be presented through a live televised awards ceremony, was finally born.
Yes, you read that right, the Japanese Oscars are led by Dentsu.
As a company that brings together four major film companies and NHK to host an award, Dentsu's position as the leader in the Japanese entertainment industry is unquestionable.
Everything about the Japanese Oscars is basically copied from the American Oscars, such as the award settings, the live televised awards ceremony, and especially the award ceremony with a curtain on both sides, which can almost be said to be exactly the same.
This award is very successful, or there is no reason why an award jointly organized by Dentsu, NHK and the Big Four should not be successful.
This award soon became the most recognized film award in Japan and the most influential Japanese film award internationally.
However, a problem arises, because the organizers of the Japanese Oscars are six major forces led by Dentsu, which means that the entire film award is decided by these six companies.
Dentsu, which holds the top position, does not have any big demands. After all, the entire Japanese entertainment industry listens to the boss, and if it controls too much on this award, it will easily lead to gossip. What Dentsu values is the influence of this award. As for who will receive these awards, Dentsu really doesn't care much.
But just because the eldest brother doesn't care doesn't mean the second and third brothers don't care.
Since 30% of the members of the "Japanese Oscar Association" (the organizing unit of the Japanese Oscars) are controlled by the traditional four major studios, the nominations and awards are basically all produced by the four major studios, and it is basically difficult for other small venues to even get nominated, let alone win.
Also, as the relaxation channel of the Japanese Academy Awards, the films invested by NHK basically win big at the Japanese Academy Awards.
This situation basically tells everyone that we big guys are trading in PY, and you unqualified kids can't afford this award.
Therefore, since the inception of the Japanese Oscars, the fairness of this award has been questioned by the outside world.
This kind of doubt reached its peak at the Japanese Academy Awards in 1999. The big winner of this year's Oscars was "The Lover" produced by Lin Bao, while "Hanabi" directed by Takeshi Kitano (BANDAI VISUAL Film Company), which won the Golden Lion in Europe, only won an insignificant award for the original score.
However, in response to such doubts, Nanaya said that you Japanese are still too young and too native.
You have to know that Japan and the Olympics have not yet reached their ugly peak. Once the results of the next few years come out, won't you be able to spiral straight to heaven?
Anyway, in Nanaya's memory, at the two Japanese Academy Awards in 2003 and 2005, the two films "Twilight Seibei" and "Sunset on 3rd Street", in which NTV participated in the investment, both won all the other 12 awards of the Japanese Academy Awards except the Best Supporting Actress.
This cannot be explained simply by eating alone. This is eating from the bowl while looking at the pot, and also reaching out one hand to cover the food in the basket.
However, when I think about the fact that the American Oscars will gradually become an independent film award in the future, it is not unacceptable for the Japanese Oscars to become an award for a major film company.
Especially since Nanaya is now part of the Lin Bao faction among the four, he is the beneficiary of this situation, so why would he question it? Is he rebelling against himself?
"I don't know how many awards I can get for this benefit."
Nanaya adjusted his tie, opened the door and got out of the car. He walked around the car half a circle, then opened the door on the other side of the car and bowed to a certain young lady sitting in the car.
"Beautiful lady, please allow me to take you down the red carpet."
"Hehe, please give me your guidance today, Oni-chan~"
Illya smiled and got out of the car with the help of Nanaya. The little girl was wearing a silver-white dress with golden decorations. Fortunately, the little girl didn't have a red ribbon and a golden crown, otherwise Nanaya would have thought that Illya was wearing the clothes of heaven and came out as the Holy Grail.
"Very beautiful clothes, my beautiful little lady." Nanaya praised sincerely. Generally speaking, a girl of Illya's age should be described as "cute", but at this moment, Nanaya felt that Illya's outfit had obviously gone beyond the scope of "cute".
"Thank you, Oni-chan~"
I don't know why, but ever since Nanaya started calling her Hoshisora Onee-chan, Illya changed her previous name of "big brother" (Onisan) to the current "Oni-chan".
Although Nanaya himself was secretly happy when he heard this, Ryutani Nobuyuki's look that seemed like he wanted to eat him up made him feel guilty.
[Don't let me wake up one day and find myself forced to live at the bottom of Tokyo Bay. ]
With this thought in mind, Nanaya guiltily took Illya's hand and walked onto the red carpet.
In fact, if possible, Nanaya really wanted to change a female companion to attend this year's Japanese Oscars awards ceremony, but unfortunately, none of the people around her were suitable.
The image of Katsura Mamako is not very suitable, and her elder sister is already married. Nanaya doesn't have the habit of disrupting other people's family harmony.
Rin and Luvia were able to go on stage, after all, as important actresses in their own TV series, it was not a problem to take them on a red carpet walk. However, the two girls were too competitive, and no matter who they took, the other would cause a big fight.
So I can only choose not to take either.
As for other female stars he knew, it was not that he didn't know them, but they weren't close enough to walk the red carpet together. Although with Nanaya's current influence, those female stars would definitely be happy to get close to him.
If he hadn't been preparing for Goblin Slayer recently, Nanaya might have been interested in hooking up with those female stars. However, he was already so busy with work that he didn't have the time to cultivate feelings with women.
The only remaining candidates are Ori, Yumi and Illya, three of whom are not considered "normal" female companions.
First of all, Nanaya immediately ruled out Ori. You know, the rumors about him and Ori have not stopped yet. If he took Ori to the red carpet at this time, he might be urged to get married by Ryougi Kiyomi the next day. During the time he lived in Ryougi's house, the aunt had already had the tendency to have such thoughts.
It's even more inappropriate for Yumi. As an adult director, you're bringing a loli actress who has nothing to do with the crew (Nanaya attended the ceremony in the name of the "Kara no Kyoukai" crew). I'm afraid all kinds of negative news will come out by then.
You know, those gossip magazines dare to say anything.
So after choosing and choosing, the only person who could walk the red carpet with him was Illya. After all, the other party was the main investor of "Kara no Kyoukai", and as a director, it was justified for him to bring this child to see what the market was like.
Of course, more importantly, those gossip paparazzi dare not make up rumors about Illya. After all, no one would have nothing better to do than to confront Lin Bao, a big shot in the film industry.
To be fair, Nanaya didn't have too many complaints about Illya as his female companion. Whether in terms of appearance, status or other aspects, Nanaya could be said to be the one who was above her status. It was just that the age gap between the two was a bit too big. Nanaya took Illya with him, which was like a young father taking his daughter to see the world.
It was only a little after 5pm, and Nanaya had obviously arrived early.
Those walking the red carpet at this time are all small stars, who want to take advantage of the time when the big stars have not arrived yet to get as much attention as possible.
But this is exactly what Nanaya wants. "Goblin Slayer" has brought him tremendous pressure recently, and Nanaya just wants to relax a little tonight.
In the current situation, he and Illya can walk the red carpet as inconspicuously as possible.
So Nanaya really did it. He took Illya's arm and walked down the red carpet with a very relaxed pace.
As for Illya, this little girl who stepped on the red carpet of the Oscars for the first time seemed very excited. Although the word "Oscar" was preceded by the word "Japan", it did not prevent the little girl from enjoying the joy of success.
So the little girl can be said to be completely enjoying the process of walking on the red carpet. The spotlights and reporters not only did not become a psychological obstacle for her, but made her even more excited.
"This is such a great feeling! It's a pity that Illya is not attending as an actress this time. Next time, Illya must attend as the best actress!"
After entering the award hall, the smile on the little girl's face faded a little, but her fighting spirit seemed even stronger.
"Come on, I'm rooting for you!"
"You can't do this, Onii-chan~" The little loli directly pestered Nana, "You can also prepare a movie for me with me as the protagonist like Luvia-sister, okay~"
Before Nanaya could answer, a voice that annoyed him sounded behind him.
"Hey, isn't that Nanaya ? Is this girl next to you your daughter?"
pS: I saw that some readers were not clear about the joke between Elizabeth Olsen and Josh Brolin, so let me explain it briefly here. Elizabeth Olsen plays Scarlet Witch in the MCU, and Josh Brolin plays Thanos.
This is not the point. The point is that these two once played villains in a Korean comic-adapted movie "Oldboy". The movie itself is not very good, and even most film reviews say it is not as good as the original.
However, this movie became popular after "Avengers 3" because Uncle Thanos and Scarlet Witch are the male and female protagonists, and their relationship is so good that they even roll around in bed and expose their nipples.
However, at the end of the film, it is revealed that Uncle Thanos is actually Scarlet Witch's biological father...
Anyway, Mi-chan was laughing the whole time while watching the sex scene in this movie.
