Great Artist

"What? Evan Bell came to Los Angeles on a plane?" In the lobby of the Kodak Theater, a reporter couldn't help raising his voice, and the people around him pricked up their ears, hoping to hear some news.

This time, Evan Bell's absence from the Academy Awards ceremony is itself a rare event where the nominee is absent. Coupled with the background of the Iraq War, and Evan Bell's public speech against the Oscars, almost all reporters are divided Paying attention to the follow-up development of this matter, even many actors have paid attention to it.

After the 23rd day, only reporters encountered celebrities who stopped, and they would definitely ask everyone's views on Evan-Bell's move. As expected, there are support and opposition, praise and disdain, and many are unwilling to make any remarks. It's just that, after a day of inquiries, the fact that Evan-Bell was absent from the Oscars, as well as the anti-war sentiments of the actors, replaced the serious business of the Oscars and became the focus of attention. Should this be called domination, or putting the cart before the horse.

However, before the reporter's voice could continue, the mobile phones in many reporters' pockets vibrated. Everyone knew in their hearts that it was estimated that the colleagues in New York had made recent progress, and they all called to inform the reporters stationed at the Kodak Theater.

Many reporters have made such expressions that they had known for a long time. How could the young and vigorous Evan Bell miss the 75th Academy Awards Ceremony? The previous remarks were definitely just speculation. At the moment, journalists are starting to think about how news should be written in their minds.

However, William Wood, who had taken up a seat at the Kodak Theater early on, always felt that something was wrong. Looking at his watch, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and now he flew from New York to Los Angeles, and then dressed and attended. In terms of time, it was barely in time. But William Wood always felt that this was not Evan Bell's style.

According to Evan-Bell's personality, once he decides, he will do it. Last year, the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was so hard, and he never missed the lecture on basic psychology at Harvard University, which is evident. Since Evan Bell has decided to withdraw from this year's Oscars, he is bound to not attend. Even if Evan-Bell finally decides to attend, he will not hesitate to regret it at the last moment. He will definitely make a decision early and set off for Los Angeles.

More importantly, Evan-Bell came to Los Angeles alone, and Teddy-Bell didn't follow along. It's understandable that Eden-Hudson didn't travel together, which makes no sense. If Evan Bell is here to attend the Oscars, someone must be with him. Although Eleven has a branch in Los Angeles, David Greenblatt has never been Evan Bell's agent or assistant.

So William-Wood felt vaguely that Evan-Bell came to Los Angeles on this trip, and there should be other things to deal with.

When Evan Bell arrived in Los Angeles, the airport was a little deserted, as the main entertainment reporters took their places at the Kodak Theater. David Greenblatt received Evan Bell very easily.

At this time, the Eleventh Studio has also undergone earth-shaking changes compared to a year ago.

The revenue from the talent show is fully credited, Apple's dividends, plus the Evan-Bell album,

The income of the film, the assets of Eleven Studios have far exceeded 500 million, and they are running full force in the direction of 1 billion. Of course, the eleventh broker is not the small branch that was stretched before. David Greenblatt drove the eleventh broker's own car to pick up Evan and Bell.

Evan-Bell also carried a small bag and stuffed a few sets of clothes into it, and went into battle with ease. He didn't look like he was going to attend the awards ceremony at all.

"Evan, are you sure you're not going to the Kodak Theater?" David Greenblatt asked with a worried look on his face.

"No." Evan-Bell gave his answer without any hesitation. If the reporters heard Evan-Bell's answer, they would be extremely disappointed. Evan Bell is still refusing to attend the Oscars. So, why did Evan Bell come to Los Angeles on this trip and at this special moment?

David Greenblatt couldn't help being a little irritable, he looked back at Evan Bell, who was closing his eyes, "Evan, don't you know how important this Oscar is to you?

This may be the best time for you to win the best supporting actor. If you win this little golden man, your future career trajectory will be completely different. To give a simple example, your salary can be increased to 15 million. Moreover, winning the Golden Man for Best Supporting Actor means that you have entered the academic field of vision, and it is obviously beneficial to challenge other Golden Man in the future. But now, not only did you refuse such a good opportunity, but you also turned against the academy. This is not a wise act, absolutely unwise. "

The more David-Greenblatt spoke, the more excited he became, even a little angry. As an agent who has experienced ups and downs, David Greenblatt is very clear about the role of connections in the entertainment industry, and he is also aware of the role of impressions and images in the entertainment industry. If it really goes against the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, then Evan Bell may miss the Oscars in a generation. David Greenblatt has experienced the sluggish and dull period of [free] choice. Now such a great opportunity is in front of him, but he can't firmly grasp it, which makes him feel like a knife.

This is not the first time that David-Greenblatt and Evan-Bell have had a disagreement. Because of the differences in their personal styles, David-Greenblatt and Evan had disagreed with Evan when they first dealt with the defamation case. Bell has had many conflicts and collisions of ideas: Since then, David-Greenblatt and Evan-Bell have had disputes over the selection of scripts such as "Pirates of the Caribbean", and the balance between studies and careers. It's just that all the previous conflicts are not as straightforward as this time.

As soon as David Greenblatt turned his head, he saw Evan Bell who was still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. Seeing his leisurely appearance, he almost hummed a little tune. This made David Greenblatt burst into flames. He is an agent, a professional agent. He has such a great opportunity in front of him, but he does not grasp it. For him, it is a contempt for his profession.

With a flick of the front, David Greenblatt stopped the car in the buffer zone on the right side of the road. Evan Yigel also noticed the stagnation of the car, opened his eyes, and looked at David Greenblatt helplessly.

David Greenblatt seemed to have a lot to say, and it started with a crackle. "Even if you don't get the best supporting actor this time, it's not the right thing for you to be so against the Academy. Look at those big stars, There are definitely not a few people who are bigger than you and why they are only talking about their anti-war remarks, but they still attended the Oscars. Because war is a matter of the country after all, and our individual strength is too small, After expressing our political position, our lives must continue. Whether the Oscars are held or not will have no impact on the Iraqi battlefield. However, whether we participate or not has a lot to do with us. Winning the award, naturally OK: There's no need to fight the Academy if you don't win an award, right? So, those stars are wise to go to the Oscars, why don't you get it?"

Evan-Bell glanced at David-Greenblatt, without interrupting his plans at all, just gestured with his eyes to let him continue.

David Greenblatt didn't notice the look in Evan Bell's eyes, but with the recent spate of events, he does have a lot to say. Although Teddy Bell is Evan Bell's agent, he is only a half-way monk, and he is still in the process of becoming familiar with the position of the agent: Eden Hudson can only be regarded as an assistant, or an incompetent assistant. Therefore, on key matters, David Greenblatt, a regular agent, must stand up and remind him.

But the problem is that Evan-Bell doesn't care, Teddy-Goul and Eden-Hudson also follow Evan-Bell. This makes David Greenblatt feel that his heart is broken.

"Also, why did you choose Broadway this time?"

"The Mechanical Enemy," "Troy, I have several scripts there, all waiting for you to choose.

It's not that Broadway is bad, but your development opportunity is right now. If you produce one or two more high-quality works, your level in movies can be improved to a higher level. At that time, if you want to return to Broadway, there will be many more opportunities..." David Greenblatt apparently had a lot of resentment about Evan Bell's return to Broadway, and rambled a lot.

"When you participated in the press conference of the design drawings for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center building~www.wuxiaspot.com~ You didn't know the provocation of the media, so why take it seriously? Before, our relationship with the media finally eased, and now it is There is a lot of scolding. Evan, standing on the opposite side of the media is not good for your development. These media, you have to learn to use them, and sometimes they will praise you for a few good words, which is good for us and them All good, why not do it?"

David Greenblatt spattered there alone, and Evan Bell listened with piercing eyes.

Evan and Bell both know these truths. How can he not know that the two worlds are human? Although David Greenblatt often disagrees with himself, Evan Bell also knows that he is only doing his job as an agent, so he is not angry.

It's just that Evan Bell knew what he was doing, and he also knew what he wanted.

He just doesn't want to compromise, he just wants to do whatever he wants to do, that's all.

If he had to look ahead and be restrained everywhere, as David Greenblatt said, he would have chosen Warner Records directly, and he would have saved the trouble of establishing Eleven Studios. ! .
