Chapter 179 The Nomination Surprise

"Look, she is so cute, fleshy, soft, sleeping soundly and sweetly, I really want to bite her." The baby in the swaddle, eyes and mouth are lined, in front of the sleeping baby , Adrian couldn't help but want to touch her with his fingers, of course, he was immediately interrupted by Julia, who had just sat her mother.

"Don't touch her, Ed, she's sleeping." Julia, who was lying next to her, whispered, she didn't feel the slightest discomfort as a mother.

"Okay, okay." Adrian had no choice but to stand up helplessly. Seeing him like this, the little Emma next to him covered her mouth and giggled, as if she liked seeing him deflated.

"Aren't you proud?" He turned to look at her and narrowed his eyes, as if transferring his anger from Julia to her.

It's a pity that little Emma has also been trained, and immediately made a grimace and slipped to the little baby's side, then changed the subject and gestured to the little guy: "She's so small, can I hug her?"

"Not yet, Emma," Zeta Jones walked over and hugged her from behind, "newborn babies are very delicate, if there is no one who takes care of her, it is easy to hurt her or even hurt her." hurt."

"But I hugged Lily when I was a child." Little Emma said with some reluctance, shaking Zeta Jones's arm, as if she was being coquettish.

Although she noticed the unusual relationship between her aunt and Zeta Jones and Adrian, she even saw them hug and kiss with her own eyes. But with her carefree personality, how could she be interested in finding out. Although she was abandoned by her biological father after she was born, her aunt has been taking good care of her for so many years, and Adrian dotes on her very much, so she has no worries about food and clothing, so she developed such a character, and because of this, she was eaten to death by little Emma of.

In addition, she has seen Kate, Sarah and others since she was a child. She knows that Adrian has many women, but she has no intuitive understanding, but she has become accustomed to it subtly, so the relationship with Zeta Jones has always been very good.

"Stop joking. Emma, ​​when did you hug Lily?" Adrian said with a smile, and deliberately looked at her with a "liar" look.

"No?" Little Emma frowned and pouted.

"Even if there was, it definitely wasn't when Lily was born." Adrian's smile grew wider.

"It must be Diva or Juliet, or Mary or Eleanor, anyway, I must have hugged it." As a result, little Emma threw these things to the ground with a wave of her hand.

Hey, cheating is not good. But it didn't wait for Adrian to speak. Zeta Jones began to comfort little Emma again: "Okay, Emma, ​​when she grows up a little bit, you will almost be bigger, you can hug her however you want."

"Okay, that's how it is." Little Emma nodded obediently. Some reluctantly glanced at the little baby, suddenly thought of something, and opened their curious eyes to Adrian, flashing with excitement as if they wanted to discover a new world: "By the way, Ed. This is your first time. Six children? They seem to be girls."

What is it like? It was supposed to be good! Adrian rolled his eyes, but he really didn't know how to answer this question for a while. Although he likes daughters very much, even if the women who are willing to give birth to him are all daughters, it doesn't matter, but after all, this is a bit... weird?

"It's normal, honey," Zeta-Jones, who saw it, relieved Adrian. "Some families have seven or eight girls, not to mention Ed..."

She got stuck at this point, she couldn't tell little Emma, ​​because the mothers of these children are all different, so the chances of having the same gender are relatively higher, right?

But little Emma didn't want to let it go. She seemed to be very curious about all of Adrian's private affairs, and immediately pulled Zeta Jones to ask: "What about Ed? What about Ed?"

Fortunately, Julia, who has been watching the show, interjected at this time: "Frankly speaking, I doubt one thing. You all know that there are women with XY sex chromosomes in the world, right? So I was thinking, Ai Is De... a man whose sex chromosome is XX."

Zeta Jones burst out laughing immediately. Originally, she wanted to control her emotions, but with the shrugging of her shoulders, she finally burst out laughing uncontrollably. If it wasn't for worrying about waking up the sleeping little guy, her laughter said Might lift the ceiling up. Little Emma, ​​who didn't understand at all, looked at a loss, while Adrian continued to roll his eyes, turning his helpless and depressed eyes between her and Julia.

"I think it's very possible, otherwise he wouldn't...understand women like this." Zeta Jones immediately sprinkled salt on Adrian's "wound" after he stopped laughing.

"Okay, good, please continue." Adrian simply clapped his hands.

"Ha, someone is angry. It seems that what we said is the key point." Julia lying on the bed became more and more proud, and Adrian immediately raised his eyebrows with a cold snort.

Then, the former troublemaker becomes the one who relieves the siege.

"What the hell are you talking about!" Little Emma got a little angry, and waved her arms to express her dissatisfaction to the three adults. It didn't look like she was only one year younger than Little Emma, ​​but more like a child who was only seven or eight years old. year old child.

"It's nothing, my dear," Adrian patted her head. "This question is very profound, and there are a lot of special terms. You can't understand it now. In short, you just need to know that this is normal."

"Oh..." Little Emma nodded half-understood, she is not someone who likes to ask questions, since Adrian said so, then forget it, but she then pointed Zeta-Jones asked: "Is it normal for Aunt Catherine to be pregnant and give birth to a girl after that?"

"Don't make such inexplicable assumptions, Emma." Zeta Jones immediately reached out and knocked on her head, but when she looked at the sleeping baby, she couldn't help but bring a hint of longing.

Adrian saw it but didn't say much. Instead, he asked Julia: "Have you thought about the baby's name, Julie?"

"Isn't this kind of thing your responsibility as a father?" Julia immediately asked.

"Yes, I know, but...some people say that I don't have the talent for naming, so I'll leave it to you this time." Adrian shrugged.

"Okay, so, what about the name Hertz?" Julia asked after thinking about it.

"Hertz?" Adrian frowned and tried hard to pronounce, "What is this... name?"

"It should be a variation of the name of the hazel tree, which is used to refer to hazelnuts or hazel flowers." Zeta Jones explained next to him.

"No, no, I don't like my daughter being called this name. Although I know what Hazel means," Adrian immediately denied, "Let's call her Patricia, who is of noble birth, this is very good."

"I knew it. He seemed to respect my opinion, but in fact he still made up his own mind." Julia immediately snorted, but she was obviously quite satisfied with the name Patricia.

certainly. The name is still Adrian's pick and choose, and the middle name is also the first name, isn't it? This little cutie named Patricia became Adrian's sixth daughter in this way, but unfortunately she didn't have an older brother or younger brother who came out together this time. From this point of view, Adrian "murdered" a life. but. If the weird situation of only giving birth to girls continues, he may not be charged with this crime.

This matter has come to an end for the time being. At most, under Adrian's strong request, Julia will have to rest for a few days before getting out of bed and doing recovery exercises. Then, the most eye-catching thing about this time of year happens. Yes, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences released this year's list of Oscar nominees, a list that left many -- especially many actresses -- sighing.

"What do you think of this surprise, dear Gwynnie?"

"I can't believe it! I love you, Ed!"

Before that, Adrian went to Gwyneth and Blanchett's house, and waited for the list to be announced. Immediately asked a little proudly. The excited Gwyneth rushed forward, embraced him and kissed him passionately, then took off his clothes regardless, and lingered with him in front of Blanchett and Liv. Although the two of them avoided it immediately, they were pulled back and rolled into a ball in the living room.

There is no doubt that Gwyneth was nominated for "The Devil", and in many eyes. She has further locked the Oscar queen. Then the other four, Rachel got a Best Actress nomination for her performance in "The Hours," and Naomi got another nomination for her performance in "Chicago," but The most critical are the other two - Blanchett who played the heroine in "Far From Heaven", and Nicole who collaborated with George Clooney in "Infidelity"!

Among Gwyneth's missed Oscars several times, "Shakespeare in Love" and "A Beautiful Mind" made her the most upset. The reason, finally fell into the hands of Blanchett. The latter was favored by most people due to the prestige of several nominations, and should have been officially crowned, but it still fell into the hands of Nicole because of Adrian.

Of course, it was impossible for Gwyneth to accuse Adrian of this account, even if she complained a few words, so Blanchett and Nicole became targets. I won't say much about Blanchett. Adrian deliberately brought them together, and any conflicts were resolved on the bed, but Nicole was different.

They didn't have much contact with each other, and Gwyneth also inquired about some things between Nicole and Adrian, although only the two parties and Naomi knew about "whoring" and "call girl" She didn't know what was going on, but she still figured out some possibilities, so she naturally looked down on Nicole. In addition, the call for her to win the award in "A Beautiful Mind" was quite high, and she lost to Nicole in the Best Supporting Actress before, so she would be disliked even more, if it wasn't because she was also Adrian As a woman, she had to sneer a few words in the media.

Now, Adrian arranges both Nicole and Blanchett to appear in the same Oscar as Gwyneth, and then let her be crowned queen in front of them. The topic of regaining her own honor can make her shine even more. Not to mention the previous Golden Globes. She has already won the trophy for Best Actress in a Drama Series, and it is almost a foregone conclusion that she will be a double actress. It is no wonder that she is so ecstatic after knowing the list.

Thanks to Diane Lane, if it wasn't for that encounter at the "Vanity Fair" party, Adrian might not be able to recall the movie "Infidelity", which is really suitable for Nicole, of course, some plots must be Some deletions. As for Diane Ryan, I can only say sorry, although somewhat regretful. But it's no big deal, there will always be regrets.

That's why a lot of people sigh about the list of nominations, or the nominations for Best Actress, look at these, Gwyneth, Blanchett, Naomi, Nicole, almost got occupied by Wonder Girl again Already—for those in the know, who have heard of Rachel and Adrian's relationship, the Best Actress nominations have been taken by the Marvel director's women. besides. Zeta-Jones and Sophie also received nominations for Best Supporting Actress for "Chicago" and "The Hours" respectively. Both men and women are envious and jealous-but the objects are different.

Not only that, but some other important awards have a close relationship with him as always. "The Lord of the Rings 2", "Chicago", "The Hours", and "Lost in Translation" all received nominations for best film and best director. Needless to say, "The Lord of the Rings 2" was directed and produced by Adrian himself, and the first film was nominated last year. The quality of the second film this year is not bad, and there is no suspense about getting nominated. Even many discerning people have already had an idea that there will be a third part of this series next year. If the current quality is maintained, I am afraid that the practice of not awarding the best director and best film to non-realistic works is likely to come to an end. was broken.

And "Chicago" and "The Hours" are said to have involved director Miracle. Although "Lost in Translation" is a low-cost independent film, the relationship between Sofia Coppola and Adrian goes without saying.

Fortunately, none of the nominees for Best Actor this time had anything to do with him. Although there were two nominees for Best Supporting Actor, they still had little to do with him. In addition, "The Hours" and "Lost in Translation" are not distributed by the film company of the media. "The Matrix" was only shortlisted for technical awards, and it was still a little less than the glory of more than a year ago, so some media didn't use "possible shady" to hype, but just said a few sour words that are indispensable.

After all, there is no director or producer or owner of a film company or media company who is as nearly omnipotent in entertainment as he is.

So, for these, Adrian saw it but didn't care. In fact, he has never cared, as long as his goal is achieved, why should he care what they say? As long as they know where the bottom line is, they say it for food rather than hostility, not to mention that after so many years, Hollywood has long been accustomed to his existence. Of course, he is also very careful when he should be careful. The Best Actress is almost at its limit, and he can't keep monopolizing it like this. He has used all kinds of means to maintain it in the past few years.

However, he still has a big goal, and he is preparing for this big goal after the millennium. Next year is about to kick off, and no one can stop his progress. If the best actress of the director of Miracle continues , will only make his aura more indestructible, and it will be of great help to his ultimate goal, so... let Natalie prepare!

No matter what the plan is, it will still take a few years to implement, so after the nomination list came out, he answered a few questions from reporters on some occasions, and Adrian went to London. He didn’t go to see little Emma during the New Year. Now I have to add it quickly, although she looks like a lot of ladies, but God knows what she is thinking.

"Actually, you don't have to worry. I'm already an adult. How can I play any more pranks?" Little Emma patted the leather of the car seat, carelessly looking like a tiny little Emma, ​​but the sly couple Her eyes rolled around from time to time, making it hard to believe her words.

"Yeah, it's really a good idea to pin your hopes on an undetermined matter." Adrian said bluntly.

"Oh, is that what I look like in your eyes? You fell in love with me, Ed." The little girl immediately pretended to be hurt.

"Okay, get out of the car, we're here." Adrian tapped her directly on the head.

"If you knock like this, I will become stupid!" The little girl immediately protested loudly.

"You are so smart, even if you become stupid, you won't be so stupid." Adrian said and opened the car door for her.

This is a community in West London. Adrian accompanied little Emma to her friend's party here. There should be no need to worry. There should be many acquaintances at the party, because...

"Hey, Emma, ​​you're finally here. I thought you were going to be late." The little girl who opened the door gave her a big hug in surprise after seeing little Emma. Long red hair, round face, and light-colored eyes make the little girl look very cute.

"How come, Rachel, this is your invitation." Little Emma smiled and hugged her, then turned around and snorted to Adrian behind her: "If I hadn't waited for this guy, I would have coming."

"Hi, Rachel, it's a pleasure to come to your party." Ignoring little Emma's movements, Adrian smiled and nodded to the little girl.

"Hi, Ed, it's great that you can come too." Unlike the intimacy with Emma, ​​she bowed to Adrian in a very polite and ladylike manner, very British.

Rachel Harwood played the role of Ginny Weasley, so this party at her house can also be regarded as a gathering of the little actors of the Harry Potter series, and even the entire crew, so there should be many acquaintances. (to be continued..)
