From Flower Vase to Film Emperor in Hollywood

“Hey, Anson, Scarlett…”

Orlando Bloom, clearly unaware of what was happening, saw two familiar faces in the hotel lobby and couldn't wait to smile, waving enthusiastically, his face full of joy.

This handsome guy, who rose to fame with the role of the Elf Prince in "The Lord of the Rings," also won countless hearts with his role as the young blacksmith in "Pirates of the Caribbean" during the past summer, his popularity soaring.

Now in Hollywood, when it comes to handsome but talentless actors, it is estimated that only Orlando can be compared with Anson, and he also ignited a heatwave on the red carpet tonight.

Looking at Orlando's innocent and clean smile, opening his arms enthusiastically, how could Scarlett and Anson bear to pull a long face?

Across Orlando, the two exchanged a look, tacitly smiling, Scarlett took the lead in turning to Orlando, greeting him warmly.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the three of them walked towards the banquet hall, chatting and laughing.

When the trio appeared, the eyes of the banquet hall instantly gathered, and even the subtle sound of air currents could be clearly heard.

The three gathered briefly, then separated and walked towards their respective circles.

Before long, whispers spread throughout the Hilton Hotel—

People called Anson and the other two "Charlie's Angels."

The producers and directors also consciously distinguished it from general agent and spy movies, presenting a lively and fragrant color, allowing the audience to ignore their superficial skills and focus on more visually effective images.

After the movie was released, it achieved great success. Not only was a series developed and produced in 2002, but a sequel movie was also released in 2003.

In the end, "Charlie's Angels 2" achieved a good box office of 100 million US dollars in North America and 270 million US dollars worldwide, but unfortunately, due to the failure of production cost control, the production cost of up to 120 million US dollars made Sony Columbia look disgraced.

Now, they call Anson, Scarlett, and Orlando Charlie's Angels, the subtext is self-evident. Between the whispers and laughter, it quickly spread to every corner of the hotel.

Obviously, the most awkward position is Anson—

Orlando enjoys playing the pretty boy, while Scarlett relies on two literary works to legitimately occupy a place in this year's awards season.

Tonight, "Lost in Translation" won the Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy nomination, and "Girl with a Pearl Earring" won the Best Actress in a Drama nomination. With the emergence of double nominations, Scarlett has already taken the lead on the road to transformation.

Only Anson.

Both "The Butterfly Effect" and "Elephant" are the same, neither up nor down, in an awkward position in the awards season, not in line with the conventional awards season work specifications, but relying on their respective topics to break a bloody path, trying to transform, but still confined to the image of a pretty boy.

That posture is like—

Is someone trying to take off a wetsuit? Tight, close-fitting, and compliant, even the most elegant person will inevitably fall into embarrassment when completing this action.

This is Anson, like taking off a wetsuit halfway, when the upper body is pulled to the elbow… stuck, and exposed under the spotlight.

“…Angels, haha, you should have seen their entrance, standing there posing, looking around, for fear that others wouldn't notice their appearance, 'Hey, the angels are here'.

Chuckling and mimicking vividly, Russell Crowe's whiskey glass was already empty, his cheeks slightly flushed, gesticulating wildly.

Between the spittle, you could see his cheeks slightly flushed, it seemed that he should be drunk.

Aside, everyone else laughed, but their faces changed in an instant.

“Russell…Russell!”

Continuous calls still failed to stop Russell, "Haha, they are indeed angels, girls…" Russell's mouth was full of alcohol.

Finally, the others were really helpless and could only bite the bullet and shout, "Hey, Anson."

Hiss.

In an instant, the voices were all cut off, and the gazes gathered back, who was the man with a smile on his face and full of curiosity if not Anson.

It doesn't matter to speak ill of people behind their backs, but if you are caught on the spot, the atmosphere will be awkward.

Russell was stunned, most of his drunkenness sobered up, quickly stood firm, put on a stern face, turned to look at Anson, preparing to strike first.

But he didn't expect that what he saw was Anson's calm and composed face, his eyes and smile were all like that, "So which one am I?"

“Natalie? Or Alex?”

“It shouldn’t be Dylan, I don’t think I have Drew Barrymore’s smile, God, she has a million-dollar smile.”

Looking at Anson's sincere face, the crowd who was still talking and laughing just now all froze: unable to laugh.

Then, Anson looked at Russell, "Hey, Russell, you shouldn't be interested in Charlie, after all, it's better to leave these superficial things to us."

Swish.

Suddenly, Russell's cheeks were flushed, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether it was because of alcohol or embarrassment—

Latest news, Russell has finalized his next movie, "Cinderella Man", a boxing movie adapted from a true story.

The direct translation of this work is "Mr. Cinderella", which tells the story of how a man whose life has fallen to the bottom regains his strength.

You don't need to be very smart to hear that Anson is teasing Russell for playing "Cinderella Man", like Cinderella.

In a burst of whispers and confusion, Anson exchanged a few more pleasantries and left calmly.

The crowd behind did not last long, and soon dispersed, leaving only Russell staggering in place, subconsciously raising his glass and taking a sip, only to find that the amber liquid inside had long been drunk.

Even after Anson officially took his seat, the sidelong glances and whispers continued to surge in the air.

Anson never has, doesn't need to, and doesn't intend to respond. If they want to watch, let them watch. This is the essence of an actor's job. Anyway, it won't hurt—

If it would, that would be great, it would help to lose weight.

Amidst the commotion and discussion, the awards ceremony slowly began, with awards being presented one after another.

Everything was as expected.

Tonight, Anson's presence at the awards ceremony was just a gimmick, a face, a topic, a focus… a pretty boy.

In fact, putting aside emotional factors and looking at it from an objective standpoint, Anson is not a favorite to win an award.

First, he is young, only in his early twenties.

Second, "The Butterfly Effect" is not strong enough in quality. Nomination is already an unexpected surprise, and the chances of winning an award are slim.

In all aspects, Anson is just there to accompany the others.

However, when the award was announced, why did the bustling gazes of the audience still flock to Anson?

The winner of the Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy is—

Bill Murray, "Lost in Translation".
