Chapter 749 We don't want to be a laughing stock!
After singing a song, Li Zhifan walked off the stage with applause and cheers.
I found that host Mark Smith was standing by the stage and waiting for the next stage. So I carefully observed his lower plate at close range and had a plan in my mind. So after walking off the stage, I did not leave directly, but stood in front of the stage and pretended to shake hands with the people around me and chat.
Mark Smith waited for Li Zhifan to get off the stage and immediately walked onto the stage with a calm and confident look on his face.
However!
Just as he stepped onto the stage, his heel was stepped on.
In an instant, a wave of resistance was transmitted to the calf, and with the thighs, the center of gravity of the whole person suddenly leaned forward.
At this time, Li Zhifan had already escaped, and he was gone on the stage.
Look at Mark Smith again. Driven by inertia, he staggered two steps and rushed directly to the stage. At the same time, a shoe also flew up, crossing directly from behind his feet, and it was on his head.
"oh!"
"Oh my God!"
"Buy it!"
“…”
The audience screamed. This was the Oscars that were being broadcast live. At the same time, 225 countries around the world broadcasted. This scene was immediately intended by global audiences, and it would be really a fool.
Li Zhifan had already walked to the entrance of the audience, turned around and looked at Mark Smith lying on the stage, followed the audience next to him to whistle, and then turned back to his seat.
No one saw how Mark Smith fell, nor did anyone take the blame.
Because Li Zhifan just moved his feet lightly, and his speed was too fast, he left the stage before Mark Smith fell down. At this time, everyone could only think that Mark Smith accidentally tripped himself.
After all, the live broadcast must continue and cannot be stopped. Mark Smith hurriedly got up from the stage and walked quickly to the center of the stage. Although he is a professional talk show host, what happened just now happened too quickly and the on-the-spot reaction was completely impossible. After falling, the person was still in a state of confusion. He could only quickly finish the awards ceremony project to be carried out below, and then return to the stage and think about the cause and effect. What was going on.
...
People who watch broadcasts around the world are watching the fun, and everyone regrets him.
On IRS, netizens who have already taken a step closer to leave messages.
"Oh my God! Is the Oscar trying to exchange for lost ratings with the host?"
"I'm so laughing!"
"Hahaha, this is more than how many talk shows Mark says, and it makes people cola."
"Hmph, he attacked us Canadians just now, and now we Canadians feel angry."
"The Mexicans feel the same way, very happy!"
"I'll report to Chinese people!"
"Didn't you notice the key issue? Mark didn't use this little trick to explain and self-deprecating, and chose to ignore sexual forgetting. Isn't he a professional host? What about the ability of a talk show?"
"It must be that the team did not expect such a thing to happen, so they didn't make up jokes for him."
"Hahaha, it's so cola!"
Of course, some people noticed that after Li Zhifan stepped down, Mark Smith fell down immediately after he went on stage. However, someone watched the video replay just now and found that Li Zhifan and Mark Smith had no physical contact. After Li Zhifan stepped down, he shook hands with several filmmakers on the side, shook his body for a while, and then turned around and left. Mark Smith's body began to tilt the moment Li Zhifan left.
If Li Zhifan had done his tricks, there would be a time of overlap?
...
on site.
Mark Smith returned to the backstage and was furious: "oh!no! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
He could not find the target of complaining, so he could only swear a few times.
The staff members on the side wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. They all lowered their heads to restrain themselves. Some turned their heads and left here and laughed when they walked away. Most of them had already laughed when Mark Smith just fell down.
"Play the video I just recorded again!"
Mark Smith walked to the director's room angrily, pointed at the screen with his waist, and said angrily to the staff here.
"Oh! No, Mark, you should learn to control your emotions!"
A director spread his hands and curled his lips, "We are now broadcasting live. After the award ceremony, can we investigate again? Besides, everyone has seen that scene. I think everyone will think it was your own mistake, right?"
"What do you mean by saying that?"
Mark Smith questioned, "Okay! If you don't check, I will resign as the host now!"
"Oh! Mark, calm down, calm down! I'm not saying I won't check, but wait? You are still a host now. You have to know what your responsibilities are. The scene just now has already shamed us. If you insist on doing this, we can consider changing the host. After all, there are still several backup hosts in the backstage waiting to take over your work."
Such a large award ceremony, including the time to walk the red carpet, is as long as five hours. It is impossible not to prepare for a reserve host. Moreover, Mark Smith is not hosted by him in the whole audience. Many of them are invited to host Hollywood actors.
Mark Smith grabbed his tie and twisted it, suppressing his temper and anger and said, "Okay, but after the award ceremony, I will see the results of the investigation as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Mark turned around and left.
As soon as the door was closed, the room burst into laughter, laughing so hard that it was slapped the table and the legs.
Suddenly, the door opened, and Mark Smith came back with anger on his face. As a result, he saw a room full of people performing their respective tasks nervously and calmly, with no one laughing at all.
Mark, who was about to start swearing, suddenly became at a loss and began to wonder if what he heard outside the door was an illusion.
He quietly closed the door and stood at the door for a few seconds. He listened to the movement inside, but his hands didn't leave the door handle.
Hey! There is no laughter!
Mark Smith then shook his head and turned and left speechlessly.
However, as soon as he walked a few steps away, another thrilling hilarious burst of hilarious thrills came from inside.
Suddenly, Mark Smith's expression became embarrassed and angry again, but he was about to open the door to question him, but someone on the other side called him: "Mark! Hurry up! It's time for you to go on stage. This is a joke written for you to resolve the embarrassing thing just now!"
Mark snorted, gave up the idea of going in and taking a look, quickly walked to the person who came and took the small note.
However, after reading it, Mark was dissatisfied: "Oh! No! Isn't this admitting to everyone that it was my own mistake? No, no! I know how the matter happened. Although I don't know the reason, it is definitely not my own fault."
"But you've made a mistake in front of the audience, aren't you?"
The other party said, "If I use my method to deal with it, others will no longer worry about your mistakes, and your humorous response may become the most eye-catching quote for this year's Oscars."
"Yeah?"
Mark was skeptical, looked at the joke on the note, read it silently several times, and put it in his pocket.
On stage again, Mark returned to his calm and confident expression, stood on stage with a smile, and said, "Oh! I made a serious mistake in front of global audiences just now. This is really not a place where the host should make mistakes. It's all the damn steps! But the reason I fell down may be because I saw Lee who sang the songs in front, which represents the most dedicated, hardworking and serious group in Chinatown, Wall Street and other places, oh! Now they are starting to enter Hollywood, and I think there will be many whites and blacks who will be unemployed soon!"
When he said this, Mark Smith kept making faces, and everyone present could hear the metaphor of this passage, so everyone below did not say a word, without a single shout or applause.
Mark Smith curled his lips and said with disapproval: "Oh, if you don't like this joke, you can complain about me on your phone. By the way, your phones are all produced by their children."
The following sentence annoyed the audience even more, and instantly changed from the silence just now to a stuttering.
Li Zhifan looked around and almost everyone showed a disgusting expression. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and shook his thumb down. Some even made a gesture with his middle finger.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Mark Smith spread his hands again, selectively forgot what he said just now, and directly announced the next awards ceremony.
At this time, after hearing Mark Smith's ridicule of Asians, Li Zhifan was thinking of another question: Did he realize that he was doing it?
It shouldn't be!
At that time, my speed was very fast, and it was completely lightning-rushing!
But after thinking about it again, he forgot to avoid the camera and didn't know if he had taken it. Mark just went to the background to check the video and happened to see it?
No wonder this is true!
At the beginning, he used the "most dedicated, hardworking and serious group" to mock Asians' work and study "working hard and hard" for survival in the United States.
What to say later is that whites and blacks will be in business because Asians enter Hollywood is a common phenomenon that has existed for a long time in other fields in the United States. Whether it is taking the exam or working hard, Asians do get more opportunities, but this proportion is still far behind whites and blacks. After all, Asians are only 5% in the United States, which is only higher than indigenous people and less than Latinos and African Americans.
The last sentence of "mobile phones and children" directly mocks the problem of child labor in Asia. This problem is even more serious in Southeast Asia. The US-funded OEM factories that were originally in China have now gone to Southeast Asia to land and hire child labor in a large number, but tracing the root cause is not the evil done by Americans?
Awards were awarded one by one, and finally the awards for the best cartoon were awarded.
Without exception, he won the final award, and as the director, Li Zhifan went on stage to receive the award and delivered a speech.
The awards were given to him were a man and a woman, both foreign stars who were living in Hollywood. The man was from Pakistan and the woman was from Kenya. The two had already talked a lot on stage, especially about their nationality and race, which received praise from the audience. Compared to Mark Smith in front, the contrast was too big.
Li Zhifan took the trophy from the two of them, shook hands separately, and walked to the podium.
"oh!"
Li Zhifan waved the trophy in his hand, "Thank you all the creative teams, this award belongs to us. Thank you to Encos, Matthew, Slvot and other friends from all the fantasy workshops, thank you Oriental Group from China, thank you for the Oscar Organizing Committee for giving this award, thank you for all the judges, thank you!!"
As he spoke, Li Zhifan changed his tone and looked at Mark Servo on the sidelines and said, "Also, Mr. Mark, after me just now, the audience loved the wonderful performance you performed very much. You are also very famous in China. Everyone affectionately called you horse shit, yes, horse shit!"
Li Zhifan used the word "Ma Shit", but the tone is similar to the first two names of Mark Smith. Mark Smith, who doesn't understand, thought it was the abbreviation of his first names and surnames, so he nodded repeatedly with a flattering look on the stage.
Nodding is definitely true, but I am flattered and don’t know if it’s true or acting.
"The reason why I called you horse shit..."
Li Zhifan said, and changed it to, "I thought your mouth was really smelly and it hurt the whole world!"
Mark Smith didn't know what Li Zhifan was saying, so he looked confused and gestured to let Li Zhifan explain it in English.
So Li Zhifan smiled and said in English: "Your talk show performance is very good!"
In an instant, Mark looked so full of energy and raised two thumbs, and he thought so himself.
Many people in the audience don’t understand and think that Li Zhifan is really praising Mark Smith, so they have a little doubt about him. Does Li Zhifan take the jokes Mark mocking Asians at all?
But what I could understand was a hilarious laugh and explained it to everyone around me. After the people around me understood it, they looked at Mark's movements and expressions and felt that this guy was so stupid, and it was really a disadvantage to learn less foreign languages.
"Hollywood has not had enough Asian characters, but Oscars need to make Asian jokes?"
Li Zhifan's subsequent loud question shocked the audience because the question was filled with a strong question, and there was no grievance or resentment in his tone, and he seemed even more tough, and continued:
"In this stage where we are trying to show inclusiveness, the color of the debate has always been black and white. Asian actors account for only 1% of all nominations in Oscar history, but even so, there are still people who wantonly mocking Asians!"
"If there were more Asians on the Oscar stage, there might not be such a harsh joke. Although we understand that on such a shining night, we might have to stand aside, but no matter what, we are not willing to become a laughing stock."
