Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 330 Vanity Fair

Natalie's speech was not over yet, or in other words, she was making up for Twain.

"Twain is my boyfriend. Although many media often report some irresponsible rumors, I love him very much. I know how hard he suffered and starved when he grew up. Maybe he is very happy. Strong, but I feel the same way!"

"Now, there are more than 1 million street children in the United States. They are displaced and their lives are difficult. Even the most basic food and clothing are difficult to guarantee, let alone education. They are the future of the country!"

"Twain is just an example. He has achieved today's success through his own efforts. However, if such a group cannot receive the care and help of the whole society, their life direction will go astray, and they will even go to the road of crime!"

"This issue, Tang En and I have discussed many times, and decided to make some modest contributions to this group. We will donate the director's salary and actor's salary for the next three years to set up a relief fund for street children to help those Homeless children, so that they can spend a stable childhood."

"However, personal power is limited. Taking this opportunity, I would like to appeal to the whole society to pay attention to the group of street children. They are a group of children who are still growing up. Their childhood experiences will have a great impact on their future life. influence. I hope they will be successful in their future lives, just like Tang En, they are the inspirational representatives of the next American dream!"

Pain, care, inspiration... These elements are always the most correct main theme in the United States.

What's more, what happened to Tang En happened right in front of his eyes, and everyone could see it clearly.

Tang En didn't bring it up because he was a man, and he didn't need to use his tragic past to sensationalize. As a kind-hearted girl, Natalie couldn't be more appropriate to bring up this topic.

This awe-inspiring speech once again won unanimous applause from the audience of 3,000 distinguished guests!

Oscar's time is precious, and every second must be strictly counted. However, the audience stood up and the applause lasted for half a minute.

On the one hand, it is support for Natalie's initiative to focus on the street children group, and on the other hand... it can also be regarded as an expression of respect for Tang En.

Nicole Kidman sighed deeply, "Twain, she is really your good wife."

Tang En didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "This prodigal...doesn't discuss it with me, so much money, donate it if you want to donate it?"

Nicole Kidman laughed angrily, "You... Dunn, are you short of this little money?"

Tang En shrugged lightly, "My money didn't come from strong winds, it was also earned through hard work, okay?"

"mean!"

Nicole Kidman sneered.

Tang En gritted his teeth and said, "I'm stingy? Nicole, don't you say that against your will? The two sports cars you drove away, as well as the luxury gifts and rare jewels I gave you over the past few years, are all worth more than one dollar. Million dollars?"

Nicole Kidman curled her lips and said, "I think you are the most willing to spend money on women."

Tang En shook his head and sighed, "Anyway, in the next three years, my director's salary will be completely gone! But fortunately, I only make films of Tang En Pictures now, and the salary is symbolic. I only shoot "A Beautiful Mind" It's just a $500,000 paycheck."

When Nicole Kidman heard this, she was angry and funny, "You are really good enough!"

Tang En rolled his eyes, and said disapprovingly: "What do you know? I'm a businessman! The money spent on women is called investment, and I can see returns. Not only the physical enjoyment, the key is a good reputation." The word of mouth is good, and the girls will like to associate with me, and donate to street children... I'm sorry, even the country can't do anything, I don't think I can change anything."

Nicole Kidman felt helpless, "Well, anyway... Natalie's words have given you a face, and your public image has grown even taller."

Only then did Tang En chuckle: "That's true, spending money to buy fame!"

...

Twain and Natalie took turns to play, igniting a boiling flame for this year's Oscar ceremony.

The whole event became a climax.

The subsequent awarding of several awards drew bursts of cheers.

Best Actor - Russell Crowe was successfully elected by virtue of his perfect performance in "Gladiator", overcoming Tom Hanks, Javier Bardem, Geoffrey Rush and other acting schools.

At the same time, "Gladiator" won the ultimate award for best picture not surprisingly.

The candidate for the best director is the director of "Drug Network", Steven Soderbergh. When he delivered his acceptance speech, he especially thanked Dunn Walker and Bill McNick.

The project "Poison Net" was almost aborted at the beginning, but was cut off abruptly by 20th Century Fox.

It was because of Tang En and Bill McNick's insight and talent that they discovered the hidden treasures of the sea, which allowed the filming of "Poison Net" to start smoothly, and it was successfully released, and helped him win the Oscar for Best Director in one fell swoop.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" successfully won the Best Foreign Language Film Award, and won the fourth award after Best Soundtrack, Best Cinematography, and Best Art Direction!

Throughout the night, the brilliance of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was only slightly inferior to the epic blockbuster "Gladiator". The former won 4 awards, and the latter won 5 awards.

As for the best actress...

Just as Tang En predicted, it was awarded to Julia Roberts, the heroine of "Never Compromise"!

In the past, Julia Roberts performed the kind of "silly, white and sweet" image, and her performance was simple and dry, without any new ideas.

However, in "Never Compromise" directed by Steven Soderbergh, Julia Roberts changed her past silly and sweet image and played a miserable, struggling, hard-working, and inspirational single mother. In the play, she defies power and never compromises. She is a firm, brave and independent woman!

Breakthrough performances are the easiest to be recognized by the Oscar Organizing Committee.

Nicole Kidman's performance in "Missing Girl" is certainly excellent, but it lacks a breakthrough. In contrast, the role of Julia Roberts is more challenging for her.

"Life has neglected you, then you must neglect it!"

Such a vulgar but classic line, spoken from Julia Roberts, obviously makes people more excited, and it is only natural that they will win the award.

...

Due to live broadcast and other factors, Oscar's red carpet show has time and space constraints.

So for the stars, the Oscar red carpet is just an appetizer, and the real feast is the Vanity Fair party after the ceremony!

Especially female stars, this is the most important occasion for them to compete for beauty and show off!

The opportunities and contacts hidden here have also made many young actors who are not eligible to enter the Oscar ceremony try their best to find connections and squeeze in.

So tickets to the Vanity Fair party are sold on the black market for a hefty price.

As an elite among the elite, Tang En is naturally the object of many people's friendship.

Especially those young girls with flamboyant figures and enchanting figures, many of them looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, with soft chests, they secretly rubbed against Tang En's body, winking at him repeatedly.

If it was a private party, Tang En might grab a few at random, or he might ask two close friends to spend a wonderful night together, but this is Vanity Fair, so he wouldn't be so ostentatious.

Men are like this, the more they experience, the more stable they become.

Back then, when Tang En met Nicole Kidman and Natalie Portman for the first time, he would exclaim out of composure, but now, even if he met the British princess, he could calm down calmly.

With a professional smile on Tang En's face, he congratulated several winners one after another, expressed encouragement to the nominees, and hoped that they would have better works to appear. They have become more and more like Hollywood bigwigs.

When he saw the best actor nominee, the famous Spanish actor Javier Bardem, Tang En couldn't help but stop and chat with him a few more words.

This guy is definitely a talented actor!

Oscars have politically correct needs, so films with highly controversial values ​​such as "Saving Private Ryan", "Pulp Fiction", and "Inglourious Basterds" are difficult to win the best picture.

The same goes for the best actor candidates, they can be scumbags, but very few heinous bastards can become the best actor.

Of course, there are always exceptions.

Anthony Hopkins in "The Silence of the Lambs" can break this shackles, and Javier Bardem can do the same!

Tang En loves talents, he likes to communicate with talented actors, just like Heath Ledger, he will instinctively give Javier Bardem a high look, "Your performance is very good!"

Javier Bardem said excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Walker, your encouragement is my Oscar tonight!"

Tang En smiled. He didn't expect him to be quite scary, and he could talk quite well. No wonder he was able to flourish in Hollywood. "If there is a chance, I hope to cooperate with you."

"Really? That's great, it's my honor!" Javier Bardem's excitement was obviously showing his true feelings.

Tang En nodded in satisfaction. The first impression was not bad, and he passed the initial test.

"By the way, do you know Penny? Penelope Cruz!"

"I know you. We are fellow villagers and friends from Spain." Javier Bardem said with a smile, with a flattering expression on his face.

Tang En gave a faint "hmm", "The relationship is good?"

"Okay." Javier Bardem said without thinking before he could react, "Although we don't meet many times, we often communicate. After all...there are too few Spanish actors in Hollywood."

Tang En's expression was slightly stiff, and he cast a deep glance at him, "Penny is my friend, a very good friend, do you understand what I mean?"

"Um?"

Javier Bardem was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he seemed to have vaguely heard such rumors. Penelope Cruz is now... living at Dunn's house!

Tang En smiled, and patted him on the shoulder in satisfaction, "It seems that you understand, put more energy into acting, I believe you will have greater development in Hollywood."

In the previous life, Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz were husband and wife, and of course Twain had to be vaccinated.

Tang En is now very fond of Penelope Cruz, especially the pair of CP formed by her and Charlize Theron, it is simply a gift from God to him.

At this time, it is necessary to make some reminders.

At least……

Before Tang En got tired of playing, he had to keep Javier Bardem at a distance.
