King of Hollywood

Chapter 112 Stupid approach

"God, you're finally back. If it's a few minutes later, you won't know how to arrange the scene when the best original screenplay nominees are introduced." After Adrian sat back in his seat, the anxious Laverne counted relieved.

"Sorry," Adrian smiled without sincerity, then pulled his bow tie and looked towards the stage, "Is it time for the best original script?"

The above guests have already begun to read the list, and the first one is "Braveheart" written by Adrian, and his appearance is shown on the big screen. He keeps smiling and faces the camera amid applause He nodded, as if he had been sitting there without moving, let alone ran to the bathroom to have a semi-forced sex with Sophie.

Then it was his work, "The Usual Suspects", which made Spacey win the best supporting actor, and there was another round of applause at the scene. There are almost few people who can get two nominations for the best original screenplay at the same time in the history of Oscars It can be counted, almost everyone thinks that he has secured this little golden man.

Surprisingly, however, the names read were: Christopher Wilkinson, Oliver Stone, "Nixon"

Probably not even the award presenters expected it. When they opened the envelope, they were stunned for a long time. Afterwards, the audience was silent for a few seconds. The feeling of surprise and embarrassment can't be shaken off, no matter how much the film academy favors biographical films, it seems to be too much under this situation, right?

This embarrassment also affected Christopher Wilkinson and Oliver Stone who came to the stage to accept the award. They also kept saying that it was pure luck when they spoke, and handed most of the words of praise to the Film Academy.

Although Adrian below applauded the other party as if nothing had happened, as if he didn't care that the award that should be at his fingertips was handed over to someone else, he actually raised his eyebrows the moment he heard the name. He is very clear that he is too popular and relatively too young. No matter what aspect is considered by the Film Academy, he must be suppressed a little bit, otherwise, how can there be so many old guys?

It's just that it doesn't matter if the best director is taken away. Anyway, although "Braveheart" is good, it can't be regarded as the top grade, but two nominations for the best original screenplay also lost, which is unavoidable... Considering the previous awards Nope, a possible thought suddenly popped up in his mind.

But there is no need to think so much now, anyway, sooner or later there will be results with the awarding of the awards, and, when she was speaking at the top, Sophie had already returned to her position. She was no different from when she left, she was still so elegant and decent, she couldn't see any trace of being in the bathroom before, she just gave him a covert and fierce stare after sitting down.

Adrian couldn't help but smiled and shook his head imperceptibly, then recalled her previous resistance, wildness and anger in the bathroom.

"You're a bastard rascal how could you do this to me you're a f***** oh god, I'm as stupid as a pig to have feelings for someone like you"

"Well... before you say that, can I pull it out first?"

With just one sentence, Adrian blocked Sophie's anger back, but her fists immediately rained down. But Sophie still forgot what Adrian said, so her movements were slightly larger, and his things didn't completely soften, but instead she was teased so soft that she finally hugged Adrian and her eyes were red with grievance.

"Okay, Sophie, don't be like this, do you know how much I like you?" Adrian quickly coaxed, "There is no makeup artist here, it would be terrible if you have a dirty face. Although you just have a dirty face It’s also very good-looking, but after all, others don’t have the same vision as me.”

He tidied up while talking, not only wiped the place clean and helped her put her underwear back on, but also let her sit on the bathroom, and carefully put on the shoes that she had kicked off before.

Sophie, who had controlled her emotions, watched him silently before saying, "You are so skillful, have you done this to every woman?"

"No, I only did this to the women I like, want to possess, care for, and hold in my arms." Adrian raised his head and looked at her with a serious look in his eyes, just like he never did before. Don't hide your feelings.

"You are such a hateful playboy." Sophie leaned on the sink and turned her head and said, although she was still expected to be angry, the previous feeling of dissatisfaction had disappeared without a trace.

"I'm going out first. I don't know which award to present now. I can't leave for too long. Let's have a good chat after the award ceremony." Adrian said, kissing her face and hugging her lightly. Only then did he leave the bathroom, and it turned out that his timing was pretty good, and it would be funny if he couldn't find someone who couldn't find him when he said his name a few minutes later in the evening.

With Adrian's keenness, how could he not know what Sophie's inner feelings are like. In fact, many women are like this. They say they don't want it, but their body is more honest than anyone else. However, such a woman is worthy of his collection. It is precisely because she has feelings for him that she speaks like this, without an emotional foundation, and no amount of interest is stable.

Well, that's all after the end, and now he should concentrate on the stage to see if the result tonight will be as he expected.

"Braveheart" is still a complete failure in various awards. The best soundtrack was taken away by "" and the best "" was handed over. This inevitably caused a lot of speculation. For a popular movie, if there is nothing in front It often means that it will take the lead in the back. Could it be said that the Film Academy really intends to let Adrian win the best director again?

"Dance of the Deadman, Susan Sarandon" When Tom Hanks announced, there was warm applause at the scene, and Susan Sarandon even embraced Tim Robbins and wept. After passing by the throne of actress countless times, she finally won the highest honor in the American film industry.

The award of Best Actress means that this year's Oscar Awards Ceremony is coming to an end, and it is also the most time, so what will be the result?

"Escape from Las Vegas, Nicolas Cage" This is Best Actor.

"Deadman's Dance, Tim Robbins" This is Best Director.

Although the applause was still warm, although Cage greatly thanked Adrian in his award speech, and although Robbins hugged Sarandon in public after stepping down, which caused a lot of funny boos, most People still turn their sympathetic eyes to the crew of "Braveheart", they lost so badly. Most of the crew buried their heads and sighed from time to time, looking extremely dull. This atmosphere even infected Sophie. She turned her head and looked at Adrian as if she wanted to say something to comfort her.

"Okay, guys, we just lost to luck, so don't be so depressed," Adrian seemed indifferent, and patted a few people sitting nearby with a smile, "People always lose, this time If you lose, just win it next time, besides, there is one last award, they have already won enough, and this last one might be given to us as a consolation prize."

Facing his joking comfort, everyone twitched their lips and finally pulled themselves together. That's right, even the director of Miracle will lose sometimes. They all thought so, even most of the people in the hall thought so, but reality was always more jaw-dropping than fiction.

"Oh, what a...surprising name, "Braveheart"" Oliver Stone, who was the guest of honor for the best film award, opened the envelope in his hand and read it out loud with wide eyes.

The scene was suffocated, followed by an uproar. Although some people took the lead in applauding, they couldn't hide the shocked expressions of the people. Basically, after losing a complete "Braveheart", it actually won the most important award in a normal award ceremony at the end, isn't this too nonsense? But after the initial shock, many people who knew the rules of this circle quickly understood, and shook their heads or nodded.

Whoever came up with this idea is an idiot. Adrian, who took Laverne to the stage to accept the award on behalf of the film company, slandered while speaking the award speech.

Among the four major awards in the United States, the taste of the Oscars has always been relatively moderate, unlike the Grammys, which are either completely left or completely right, so there are occasional situations of egalitarianism, although the awards ceremony is essentially divided. Cake, and the judges of the film academy have always been good at dividing the cake, but occasionally there will be dizziness.

For example, now, because Adrian is too young, he simply didn't give "Braveheart" a previous award, but after all, he is not an ordinary director, he is still one of the top upstarts in Hollywood, so it seems like nothing to give. It can't be justified, so "Braveheart" won the best film after missing many awards, because this statuette is for the film company rather than the producer or director.

It’s just that this is too obvious, and it’s obvious at a glance that this is compensating Adrian—unless in very special circumstances, the best film and best director are usually the same movie—but the compensation award is so special. Tomorrow, there will inevitably be media calls for grievances or cynicism, and various producers or directors will probably make irresponsible remarks.

"I have no opinion on this, but I believe that "Braveheart" is fully qualified to win the best movie." After finishing the photo taking of the winners, Adrian, who was surrounded, replied, look at the reporters His eager face knew that his guess was correct, and tomorrow's newspaper must have a good show.

Just, what does that have to do with him? The awards ceremony is over, and it's time to do other things too.

Unfortunately, Adrian was not able to chat with Sophie this evening. According to the practice of the past two years, after the ceremony, he had to attend the Oscar night party of "Vanity Fair". The party was very lively. There was Nicolas Cage, who was smiling when he met everyone, and Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon, who were so happy that they both won the awards. A shining character, "Vanity Fair" has obviously had some experience in hosting it.

Because of the last best movie of "Braveheart", Adrian was often teased at the party, saying that he deserves to be a miracle director, and such a miracle has almost never happened.

"It's better to have fewer miracles like this." Faced with these jokes, Adrian could only shrug his shoulders, and by the way, laughed at the film school again in his heart.

He was busy throughout the night, and several other women were attending Oscars. It was not easy to go and say hello to him on the red carpet before, but it was different at the party. So Adrian sometimes listens to Gwyneth's complaints about Cameron's tyrant style-she was quite depressed because she didn't get anything at the Golden Globes before, so it is inevitable to be a little nagging-sometimes to tease Blanchett, and sometimes Dealing with Monica and Julia, and at the same time preventing Monica, Julia and Gwyneth, Blanchett from meeting face to face, of course, far away from each other Pass.

In the eyes of others, he may seem a bit exhausted, but Adrian handled it with ease and enjoyed it, but he didn't expect that Sophie didn't come to this party at all. As soon as the awards ceremony was over, he went straight back to the hotel , it was impossible for him to leave after he realized it. I thought it would not work today, so I would change it to tomorrow, but the next day she left Los Angeles early and returned to Paris just like last time.

"It's really...running faster than a rabbit." After hearing the news on the phone, Adrian sighed depressingly.

You know, if it wasn't for Sophie, he could have brought Gwyneth and Blanchett back together. He had long been looking forward to Blanchett's expression after the threesome again. Monica and Julia were temporarily separated by him, because he wanted to take advantage of Monica's obedience to him to make other arrangements.

"What's faster than a rabbit?" Charlize's voice rang out, putting his coffee and newspaper on the desk.

"Nothing." Adrian shrugged, then glanced at the newspapers in her hand, some of which had obviously been opened, "What was said on it."

"Which area are you referring to?" Charlize asked with her hands in front of her and straightened her body.

"Oh, come on, Charlie, you know what I'm asking." Adrian watched as she spread her hands.

"I think you should have seen those things at home." Charlize said calmly, and then replied: "There is nothing special about it, and everyone thinks that Oscar is unfair."

Adrian couldn't help but shook his head with a smile. This sentence is too ambiguous. It can be regarded as unfair to think that Oscar owes "Braveheart", and it can also be regarded as unfair if Oscar doesn't change the compensation at all. unfair. But Charlize was right, the media reports were indeed nothing special.

As he expected, some people complained about "Braveheart", thinking that at least two awards should be won among makeup, soundtrack, director, and leading actor.

"The film academy doesn't seem to like "Braveheart" very much, so they have been trying to ignore this film throughout the awards ceremony, but in the end they awarded it the most important best film. They are really generous. Generous, maybe the director of Miracle and the crew of "Braveheart" should express their gratitude, and thank them for leaving a comfort." He said sarcastically.

Many media also agree with this statement, but if they think they are really on the side of "Braveheart", it would be a big mistake. As I said before, after each Oscar, there will be such people who will come out and comment. All they want is to sing against the film academy.

So it's a little less than the English media's continued collective displeasure with Braveheart.

"Obviously the Oscars proved their kitsch tastes again, thought they had made a change, but when the best picture name was announced, I realized that Oscars are still Oscars, It’s not worth looking forward to.” That’s what the English media said, they still had a heart for this subject, they criticized Oscar as before and then mocked Braveheart without revealing any trace.

However, many Scots and ordinary people in England also agree with the first point of view. After all, this kind of work that has received ten nominations but only received one most important award means compensation is too obvious. Fortunately, when the movie was released, this topic had already been debated once, and this time it did not cause too much disturbance.

Among so many comments, there are many discerning people. A columnist in the "New York Times" said that even if "Braveheart" is excluded, the script of "The Usual Suspects" has the strength to win the best original screenplay. Ann has two nominations for this, so she really shouldn't have lost.

"Obviously, Adrian is too young, far below the average age of the Academy of Film Arts and Academy, and he became the youngest best director last year. It is also reasonable that this surprising and funny situation will appear. Among them. It’s really rare, and in this respect, Adrian deserves to be a person who likes to perform miracles.” ——John Davis, The New York Times.

"Let them fight, it's over anyway." Adrian waved his hand in vain, "Thank you, Charlie."

"Don't forget to call Mr. Crowder back, this is the first thing you have to do." Charlize reminded.

"Understood." Adrian nodded, took a sip of the coffee at the right temperature, and watched his buttocks stretched round by the pL short skirt sway out of the office before picking up the phone again.

"Hi, Ed, congratulations." Claude's voice quickly came from there.

"What is there to congratulate? Although you don't know much about these things, you should be able to tell, not to mention that there are so many analytical articles in today's newspapers." Adrian said with a smile, "What can you do with me?" ?"

"Of course, I should give me a response to last week's report. Although I know you are very busy, you are making movies and dating women, but you have to ask about these things." Claude said in his tone Admonish.

"Oh, yes, it's my fault, Charlie reminded me, but the award ceremony is just around the corner, so it's a little late." Adrian flipped things out with the microphone in his hand, "I don't have any comments, Just remember to be a little low-key, the acquisition last year has made us very high-key."

"No problem, I'll take care."

"Oh, by the way, there's just one more thing I want to tell you."

"Oh?"
