"The Oscars are in less than two months..."

Catherine looked at the calendar.

Due to the recent incident involving spy Sidney, Catherine almost forgot about the important Academy Award.

——The 40th Academy Awards were held on April 10, 1968 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in California, USA.

"The Last Day" won the Best Picture Award - of course, this is the original history.

For now, it’s hard to say who will win.

And because of Catherine, there are many films in the current film industry that are completely different from the original history. What about "Nuclear War", what about "Nuclear Crisis"... In addition, there is also a "Dr. Strangelove"...

...In short, the film industry has become chaotic, and some of the original films may have disappeared. Regarding this, Catherine herself cannot tell what exactly has disappeared, because she is not familiar with the American film industry in the 1960s.

——So it’s still unclear who will win the Academy Awards this time.

As for Sidney, there's not much to worry about.

Kane has already figured out where Sidney lives, and then he only needs to keep an eye on the other party. If the other party is about to escape, then simply arrest him - the seven MIB elites have been keeping an eye on them.

of.

As an elite MIB, there is absolutely no way he could miss - after all, there are 7 MIBs staring at Sidney at the same time.

Catherine, on her side, had no intention of letting Sidney continue to "continue". Her mind was completely attracted by the Academy Awards.

"Would you like to wear that dress?"

Catherine is absolutely confident in her "Grey Zone". If she doesn't win an Oscar, it would be completely meaningless.

"Wasteland" caused a sensation in the United States, and "Red Alert" also achieved box office miracles, but unfortunately...the success of these films at the Oscars was not very good.

If there is any grievance Catherine has about movies, it is undoubtedly this Academy Award.

It’s really hard not to be able to win a statuette once.

For this reason, Catherine decided to choose a good dress.

--it is necessary.

She had a hunch that she would definitely win the Oscar this time.

As a young and beautiful girl with a successful career, Catherine's career line has reached a certain level in a sense, but in another sense, she has no "proof" for her achievements.

No matter what, I won't be reconciled to it.

"Time Magazine"'s "Magic Girl Girl" is the first evaluation of Catherine - although Catherine herself does not like the so-called "Magic Girl Girl", because it always reminds her of a kind of cat that is not a cat.

A creature named "qb", and a headless senior...

This evaluation can be regarded as a summary of Catherine's novels.

And here in Silicon Valley, some people also call her the "Mother of Personal Computers", which can be regarded as an evaluation of Catherine - although Catherine is also very cold to "Mother of XX", because when it comes to "Mother of XX"

When she was young, she always thought of nvxing in her thirties and forties. But now Catherine is not even 20 years old...

But no matter what, in these aspects, she has indeed gained a good reputation, but Catherine seems to have no achievements in the film industry.

Although "Wasteland" and "Red Alert" were both box-office miracles and caused a huge sensation in the United States, they did not bring any actual reputation to Catherine. They only made her reputation even more negative.

Just carry it forward and make your videos known to more people.

Catherine needs a "proof", and the best proof is the Academy Award.

She has decided that if she doesn't win the Academy Award anymore, she will make another movie, or at worst, she will write all her future masterpieces... Anyway, there are so many famous movies, so there will be a time when she wins the award, right?

"What should I wear?"

At this time, Catherine became a little confused.

After all, it is the Oscars. Although Catherine usually does not have very high requirements for clothing, just "eye-catching" is enough, but at the Oscars, it seems that this cannot be the case, right?

So, you have to choose a perfect outfit carefully, right?

"Ah...this is really troublesome..."

After searching in the closet for a long time, Catherine still found nothing.

Compared with the last Oscar, Catherine is determined to win this Oscar. If this is the case, of course she needs a perfect dress...

But Catherine struggled for a long time and still couldn't decide what clothes she should wear...

"It's really troublesome..."

If you are a man, you only need to wear a suit, right? If you want to be low-key and calm, wear a black suit. If you want to be bold and unrestrained, wear a white suit. Even if you want to be unique,

Just wear casual clothes.

But the problem is...my current body is so perfect, wouldn't it be too shabby if I don't choose some good-looking clothes? Catherine hates this situation to the extreme.

Although she has been a nvxing for so long, Catherine is still a little confused about what nvs should do on what occasions. Although there is probably nothing wrong with the above, it seems a little difficult to make yourself different.

.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that I followed a "low-key" strategy until junior high school, right?

At least when Catherine read "Das Kapital", she usually did so behind her parents' back.

"Elsa, what do you think of this dress?"

Catherine took out a dress, which was a Christmas gift that Lisa sent to herself not long ago - God knows why, it was only sent in mid-January.

"Well, it's very beautiful."

Elsa seemed to want to observe hard, but she couldn't seem to concentrate.

"Elsa, change your lines..."

Catherine complained.

"But these clothes are really beautiful." Elsa was really speechless. She couldn't remember how many clothes Catherine had tried on.

Catherine finally realized that although she was a nvxing, Elsa herself did not have the consciousness of being a normal nvxing at all. Elsa had an indifferent attitude towards many things, and the issues that concerned her were often

It is "non-mainstream".

Everyone loves beauty, and Elsa is no exception, but Catherine knows that Elsa is really dizzy now...

In a sense, Catherine and Elsa are really similar...

"Call Lisa first...if it's her, she should know."

Lisa was in Italy now, and Catherine looked at the time. It should be morning or early morning there, so she simply made an international long-distance call.

"By the way...after the Oscars, there will be Jenny's Festival. Don't forget this too."

While waiting for Lisa to answer the phone, Catherine suddenly thought of Jenny.

It's a little strange that Jenny has been staying in Los Angeles recently, instead of returning to New York. Although college is very free, but skipping school like this...does it really matter?

American universities have always been strict about entry and exit. It is easy to get into college, but it is difficult to graduate from college.

And like Columbia University where Jenny is located, you need very high grades to even get into it. If you don't work hard...does it really matter in the future?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems to be the case, right?

Jenny is very talented in her own right. In the previous clothing club, she had the best academic performance. And her grandfather is also an arms dealer. Taken together, Jenny's future is really not a problem...

"By the way, in this case, I need to prepare a gift for Jenny..."

In the past, everyone would always get together to celebrate the birthdays of Catherine and Lisa.

"Hello..." There was a feeble voice on the other side. It was obvious that the other person was sleeping at the moment.

"Lisa, I'm Katherine."

"Kate? Oh, my God, I didn't expect you to call...oh..."

On the other side was a voice full of surprises.

"Looks like you're still sleeping?"

"Oh... I'm just getting ready to get up. Kate, what can I do for you?"

Lisa immediately heard the distress in Catherine's tone.

"Ah, there's something a little bit about. I'm going to attend the Academy Awards on April 10th...but I don't know what kind of clothes I should prepare."

Catherine expressed her troubles.

"There's no problem with this, I'll take care of everything~"

Lisa was very excited, and her voice even trembled a little.

"Lisa..."

"Um?"

"I wish I could wear something a little more 'normal'," Catherine said softly.

"...Isn't it bad to be more sexy? It's a good idea to let everyone fall under your charm."

Lisa's old illness relapsed, and Catherine thought she would change a little - in fact, she had already changed a lot - but fortunately she reminded her at the end.

“No, absolutely not”

Are you kidding? Let yourself wear clothes that expose your body on a live television broadcast? This is absolutely impossible. Shooting a special issue for Sports Illustrated is already the highest limit for Catherine. Live television and other things... are the most annoying.

"Well... okay." Lisa was obviously a little frustrated: "Then I will look for inspiration from other places. I will choose a unique outfit."

"It doesn't need to be too different..."

If you let yourself dress up as a clown...well, this is really different.

"Don't worry, Kate, you will have all your measurements taken later, and then I will help you make clothes..."
