King of Hollywood

Chapter 316 The main event is coming

Sometimes you think the other person is joking, but it's not a joke. You think the other person doesn't care, but the other person understands what you're saying. People are complicated. To paraphrase a word, you can know some of a person's thoughts at all times, and you can know all of a person's thoughts at some times, but you cannot know all of a person's thoughts at all times.

Neither can Adrian, but he doesn't need to know it all, it's enough for him to know some ideas all the time, and all ideas some of the time. Therefore, although Taylor's reaction was somewhat out of his expectation, it was cool for the rebellious little girl to say something, but he didn't take it too seriously.

It is certain that, on the one hand, this innocent and detached girl does have this kind of thought. She feels that Adrian is threatening her because she values ​​herself; I didn't know how to respond, so I had to fool around like this. Two thoughts intertwined in her heart, which one had the upper hand and which one was more, he wasn't sure if the words were pure instinct or a cover-up.

But so what? He never hesitated when it was time to strike, just like Penelope and Anne, even if it might be troublesome. So, it's fine for Taylor to write songs, but if he does something he shouldn't do without saying hello, then it can only be a pity. This can be regarded as a small test for Taylor. As Adrian's collection, especially the current collection, some qualities are necessary. Now it depends on whether she has it.

Soon, March will come. The 78th Oscars are just around the corner, no doubt about it. Still at the Kodak Theatre. Although Oscar's ratings have been declining year after year, this time the media attention is unprecedentedly high. Everyone wants to know whether the guy who has created countless miracles can become the uncrowned king.

This is not just to see if he can win the best director again, but also to see if he can make Natalie Portman the best actress again. The media's continuous publicity during this period, although they are all warning descriptions with hints, has lost the audience's appetite. In fact, not much language is needed. As long as Adrian's record is put forward, the audience will naturally make up a lot of things, so the ratings of this year's show have been quite high from the beginning.

From this point of view, the Academy of Film still has to thank him. Under such circumstances, he alone has boosted the ratings. It hasn't happened before, and in the future... I'm afraid it won't happen either.

but. Although the audience is waiting for the result, most insiders know that the result is more or less the same, especially those who know more.

"We're all your foils today, Ed." At the door of the Kodak Theater, on the red carpet surrounded by flashing lights. Spielberg said to Adrian with a sigh.

Although he took "Munich" to participate in this year's Oscars, and was an opponent of Adrian in the best film and best director, but as a member of Hollywood Jews, he knows better than others how much energy Adrian has used .

"I've never felt like I do now... I feel old." Spielberg sighed again.

"Don't say that, Steven. You're not too old, and many great directors have done more than you. But they're still making movies, so you have enough time and energy to make the works you want to make." Adrian smiled and patted him on the shoulder, then thought of something and said: "At least, you are still very competitive in the best movie."

This is not consolation. You must know that Adrian has made many transactions in order to achieve his goals. One of them is that as long as he gets what he wants, he can give up everything else. There is nothing to regret about this. The probability of some things is not high, so it is better to use them as bargaining chips than to fight for them.

"Don't worry, I just felt a little emotional," Spielberg sighed twice, but quickly returned to normal.

After all, a pervert like Adrian may not be able to appear in a few decades, so just like Michael Bay vs. James Cameron, since no one can surpass it, that's the so-called.

After a few more pleasantries, the two separated immediately. Spielberg walked into the theater first, while Adrian continued to stay on the red carpet for reporters to take pictures, and chat with his women by the way. This year's lineup continues to expand. Needless to say, Kate, Monica, and Sophie are already frequent visitors to the Oscars. Among the younger girls, Scarlett, Kirsten, and Amanda are almost becoming Oscars. The regulars, Jessica and Meghan as well, and Kayden, but Keeley, haven't been able to set foot on the red carpet yet.

As for Asians, in addition to the nominees Lin Zhiling and Yu Jihui, Gao Yuanyuan, who finally had a masterpiece of a movie, also appeared in the Kodak Theater. I believe the mainland media must have some fierce hype.

Fortunately, Nicole and Naomi's due date is just a few days ago, but when they went to the hospital for an examination the day before, the doctor made it clear that it is not yet time. Of course, it is okay for them to be admitted to the hospital now... In short, they Now they are all staying at home with their stomachs upright, and Adrian was able to attend the awards ceremony. Fortunately, otherwise, there would only be more women present, and this year Adrian is particularly forbearing to pay attention, and if he takes a picture of being surrounded by several women like the previous few times, the reports of the incident will definitely be overwhelming, which is not in line with him. The style of releasing news bit by bit.

After a while, Adrian walked into the Kodak Theater alone as the sun was gradually setting to the west. Adrian, who walked along the short passage, greeted the acquaintances who stayed here and walked up the steps quickly. Although he had been here many times, he felt different every time, especially today.

Counting this year, he has already participated in the 14th Oscars. Watching the organizers continue to hold them in various places, and finally placed them here, before he knew it, he had already changed from a rookie to an important figure now. Looking back, it really feels like a dream.

Bypassing the patio-like cylindrical structure, Adrian entered the front hall, and a few steps further was the hall. Yes, dreamy. Especially in this place, it only takes a light step to achieve a great cause that has never been seen before or since. You can stand at the top and overlook the whole of Hollywood.

Although he told Claude that he wanted to control Hollywood at the beginning, he never thought that he would reach his current position in this way, and his thoughts are constantly adjusted because of the reality. The current thoughts are different from the original thoughts. a lot of. This is normal, no matter what kind of thinking, there will always be some changes after experiencing enough things, and Adrian is no exception-except for one thing.

"Hi, Nada. You look so beautiful." After Adrian found his seat and sat down, he smiled and looked at Natalie, who was arranged to sit next to him by the organizer, "I didn't see it outside. Did you come early?"

"I'm a little nervous." Natalie glanced at him, and slightly clenched her hands on her lap, "So I came here early."

"Really?" Adrian looked at her with a smile, a purple evening dress made her look quite elegant. The slightly curly hair makes her look very mature.

Natalie's outfit was specially chosen by him, and it was based on... collocation, it makes sense, doesn't it? So it wasn't until seeing her fidgeting that Adrian chuckled and turned his gaze to the stage. An idea, the one he had when he first opened his eyes, never changed. Moreover, it was Natalie's behavior that made him deepen, otherwise he might suffer a lot from the initial attitude, so rewarding her should also be rewarded.

Well, let's not talk about these. As time passed, the awards ceremony was finally about to begin. The host this time...is Jon Stewart of The Daily Show.

Different from the past, this time the opening is a spoof short film, and the spoof is not the best movie, but the previous Oscar hosts. For example, at the beginning, the screen was a small tent like Brokeback Mountain. When the voice-over sounded "Welcome this year's Oscar host Billy Crystal", Crystal immediately got out of the tent: "No, no, I now was busy."

Then, Chris Rock also got out of it: "I'm busy too."

Undoubtedly, there was a lot of laughter.

Next, following the camera, the watching guests visited several former hosts, such as Steve Martin, Whoopi Goldberg, etc., without exception, they all chose to refuse. Of course, the way of rejection also made people laugh constantly. Finally, the phone call came to Stuart. After waking up, Stuart turned over and saw Salma Hayek lying beside him. He thought it was a dream. Stuart fell down and continued to sleep, and then got up again, so the person lying next to him became George. ? Clooney.

Finally, amidst the laughter, Jon Stewart appeared on stage: "Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, and...excited people."

He said this in a playful tone, and the funny taste attracted many laughter, and Adrian was among them, but at the same time shook his head slightly. Stewart is a good host, good at changing, quick-witted, and very humorous. With cynicism and exaggerated body language, he has many fans.

But it's also because of this that he is not suitable to host the Oscars, because this is an awards ceremony, and entertainment is the first priority anyway. But "The Daily Show" is largely a politically satirical show, so it is necessary for the host to be acerbic and sarcastic once he catches a loophole.

Although Stewart's image in life and in front of the camera are two different things, in fact, many guests who criticized each other fiercely in front of the camera have a very good relationship in private, and what they show in front of the camera is a shooting requirement. But Stewart has hosted The Daily Show for almost a decade, and that style has become so ingrained in him that it becomes acerbic whenever he switches to host mode.

Among other things, look at his current appearance, with two eyebrows raised upwards, his frowning face does not seem to be happy at all, and it is very different from the appearance of Christo who wants to laugh at the first sight. Maybe he could control it at first, but later on, when he talked too much, he would instinctively bring up some inappropriate topics.

In fact, Adrian thinks that Ellen DeGeneres is actually more suitable to host the Oscars, and according to what he heard, the film academy actually considered her, but finally sent an invitation to Stewart. That being the case, Adrian can only shrug his shoulders, he can't say "Hey, Jon. You are not suitable to host Oscar" to Stuart, right? To be honest, which host has never thought of hosting the Oscars? Just listen to the bragging words like Chris Rock.

Anyway. No matter how unsuitable Stewart was, he was much better than last year's Locke, so Adrian just regretted it, and then focused on this year's awards.

This year's awards are awarded from the technical category, starting with the best sound editing, which was won by "Transformers" without a surprise, and also the best sound effects and best visual effects. However, this has also become this year's Oscars. The only movie to get three awards because it was basically a mess like Pride and Prejudice and Good Night and Good Luck nominated for both Best Art Direction and Best Cinematography and Pride "With Prejudice" took best art direction, while "Good Night and Good Luck" took best cinematography.

others. "Munich" won the best cinematography, "Emperor Penguin Diaries" won the best documentary, and "Hustle and bustle" won the best song. In this case, although Yukie is very eye-catching in "Tongtian Tower". It's a pity that she still missed out on Best Supporting Actress, let alone Lin Zhiling, it's already pretty good to be nominated for her role.

"It doesn't matter... If Ed wants to give it to me, he will naturally give it to me... If Ed doesn't give it to me, there must be a reason..." Yukie, who was riding on Adrian's body, panted intermittently while heaving his body Speaking of.

This is outside the lobby of the Kodak Theater. A store in the passage below the stairs, usually the theater can be visited. So there are several shops on both sides of the passage after entering. When the Oscars are held, the entire street outside will be under martial law, and the shops on both sides of the aisle will naturally be deserted. Adrian, who couldn't find a new place to play passion, made his idea on this.

This is not a difficult task, as he can get the key to the store here, there is no problem at all, and it is also easy to avoid the security guards patrolling outside. The only troublesome thing is that you can't turn on the lights, but having sex in the dark floor-to-ceiling glass covered with patterns and buying all kinds of handbags is also exciting.

"You are always so considerate, Yukie." Adrian, who was holding her waist, praised her, and then straightened up her lower body and began to exert strength.

In fact, Yuki Hui is still very hopeful to win the Best Supporting Actress. Firstly, her performance in the movie is really outstanding. Secondly, there has been almost 20 years without an Asian-American winning an Oscar, especially the one who should be famous. Ang Lee was completely deprived of the honor that should belong to him, so if Adrian is willing to work hard to publicize Yukie, it may be impossible to get a statuette, and Oscar also has a precedent for Japanese-born acting awards .

But unfortunately, what Adrian had to protect first was his own interests, which eventually led to Yuki Hui's defeat. Although even if she worked hard on public relations, she might not be able to win the award, but Adrian was still somewhat ashamed. To be obedient and honest, even a small pet might not be as good as Yukie. If playing one of the main roles in "Gilmore Girls" and leading actresses in movies like "The Grudge" made her the most famous Japanese actor in Hollywood, "Memoirs of a Geisha" made her Completely rank among the first-line actresses—even if they are only a little higher than the quasi-first-line.

Even under such circumstances, she still worked as a maid beside Adrian honestly and with a low eyebrow, meeting all his needs. This is very rare, and Adrian's concept has always been that as long as they are worthy of giving, he will never be stingy, so he felt a little sorry for this time, so he pulled her out to make out in the middle of the awards ceremony and apologized.

However, Yuki Hui, as always, comforted Adrian in turn, making him feel more guilty. Therefore, the moment he sent her to the peak again, he suddenly had a very interesting idea. Although it is not complete, it is indeed an interesting idea. If it is really done, it will not only increase Yukie's reputation to a higher level, but also make many people's glasses shatter on the ground. Why not do it?

Of course, this is all for the future, and there is no rush to perfect it now. Besides, he still has to rest, so after returning from the outside, Adrian quickly turned his attention to the stage again.

The situation of the chaotic war is not over at this moment. The reason for saying this is because the best adapted screenplay award, which should have been a sure thing, fell into the hands of "Munich" directed by Spielberg. This is really a bit of an uproar. As a film describing the Holocaust of Jews in World War II, and it was directed and produced by a miracle director himself, and it was originally a biography, "The Pianist" is simply destined to win the best adapted screenplay.

Unexpectedly, it was "Munich" that finally won this award. What is the film academy thinking? It's also a story about Jews, is "The Pianist" worse than "Munich"? Many people were puzzled, and some began to gloat secretly. "The Pianist" didn't win a single award before, and they felt that they might be accumulating energy for the last few awards, but after this award that should have no problem was handed over to other movies, the taste in it is worth thinking about. It is very likely that Adrian's big money caused a backlash from other members of the academy, so...

But Adrian always looked like an old god, and he didn't seem to worry about anything because he missed the adaptation of the script, and he waited patiently.

So the awards continued to be handed out one by one. The best original screenplay was awarded to "Good Night and Good Luck", and the best short film was awarded to "Six Gunners"... Finally, the main event came.
