The Best Director

Chapter 129 Sweeps the MTV Movie Awards

"Yang, how about this skirt for me?" In the room, Jessica stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling mirror beside the wall, pulling on her long white skirt and looking around at herself in the mirror. (Read the novel) This is a room in the house specially used to store the clothes, shoes, handbags and various accessories of the two of them. Of course, most of them belong to girls.

Although Wang Yang doesn't wear suits and shirts all year round like Nolan, except for attending events and ceremonies, he usually doesn't dress up much. Most of his clothes are T-shirts and jeans. When it's cold, he adds a jacket, and when it's colder, he wears a windbreaker. . But probably because he has watched too many styles in future movies and TV shows, he has become a "trendy" with his casual dressing. Many casual styles are imitated by young people. His street photos are also very popular and more fashionable. When invited by a magazine for a photo shoot, he was like a star in front of the camera, not a director.

"It looks great." Wang Yang, who was sitting in front of the long dressing table, nodded and praised: "This dress is a perfect match for you, so let's just get this one."

Jessica turned back and glared at him, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Don't be perfunctory, please, give me some opinions, I want opinions." Wang Yang weakly leaned on the dressing table and said innocently: "I'm not perfunctory, it's true. It's very beautiful... Okay, okay, it makes your figure taller, very beautiful." But Jessica still raised her eyebrows and refused to let him go, saying: "No matter what you say, it's beautiful, Beautiful, beautiful Taobao women's clothing Tmall Taobao mall Taobao women's winter jacket m..."

"But it's all true." Wang Yang also opened his eyes wide and spread his hands helplessly: "Am I supposed to say, 'Mary, it's ugly, it makes you look fat?'" Jessica immediately looked at the mirror, Looking at himself, he frowned and said: "Are there any? Oh my God, there seems to be some. How could it be like this? I obviously practice dancing every day... I have to change it." Wang Yang hurriedly stopped him: "No, no, no, baby, What I said was a question, not an opinion. You know, your figure is perfect."

Seeing Jessica walking towards the hangers full of skirts with a "I've decided" look on her face, Wang Yang couldn't help but cover his forehead. What happened to her today? She had never been so nervous when attending the Golden Globe Awards before; but this time when she attended the MTV Movie Awards that night, she had already tried on more than a dozen different looks, and asked him to stay here to give her opinions, saying she was not satisfied with how good they looked. It didn't look good, let alone dissatisfied... He closed his eyes and asked, "Jesse, why don't you wait until Roland comes and ask her again? She is the professional."

"I need your opinion, you are a trendsetter." Jessica smiled and shook her head, continuing to choose clothes. After a while, her voice sounded in the room: "Yang, can you look at this skirt?" After another moment: "Do you think I should wear these hoop earrings or these pendant earrings? ", "Would you like to wear a hair accessory? How about this?"...

Just when Wang Yang was about to fall asleep in his chair for the night, his cell phone suddenly rang. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief with a smile. After waiting for a long time, he stood up and walked outside, taking out his cell phone. come out,

Said: "I'll answer the phone." Jessica nodded naturally. He looked at the screen and saw that the call was from Nancy Lenore. He was a little confused because she rarely called.

"Hi, Nancy." Wang Yang answered the phone with a smile, and heard Nancy's voice trembling with excitement over there: "Yang, I received the admission notice from the University of Southern California in film and television production. "Major" Wang Yang couldn't react because he had never heard about Nancy applying to college. He smiled doubtfully: "So you are going to become a Trojan soon?"

"Haha, yes" Nancy laughed happily and said excitedly: "Yes, damn, I can enroll in MUMA this fall -" She kissed something and said with a smile: "I'm kissing it , it has my name on it, Nancy Lenore, it’s true, I’ll be a director.”

Wang Yang also laughed, remembering the scene when he received the admission notice. What does a kiss mean? He was so happy that he almost ate it with the envelope and kept shouting, "I am a director, I am a director." Of course, "being a director" and "going to college" are not the same. Anyone can make independent films. , Even if you go to college, you may not be able to gain the trust of film producers. But anyway, this is a solid step

"Thank you, Jan." Nancy stopped laughing and thanked her sincerely: "Last year in Park City, I thought about giving up and going back to be my waiter honestly. But you showed up and you let me I persisted, thank you. I learned a lot while filming "Juno" with you. I..." Her voice suddenly became choked and she said, "I never thought this would happen. I'm so happy, thank you..."

"Nancy, come on." Wang Yang encouraged her softly, and then said quietly: "No, don't hang up. Let's chat for a while. I can't put down my phone now for some reason." He glanced at the people in the room who were continuing to try on clothes. Jessica glanced at her and said loudly to her cell phone: "What? You asked me about the situation at USC? This will take a long, long time..." As he spoke, he walked downstairs.

Night falls in Los Angeles, and a grand event is being held at the Shenandoah Theater at this time, which is the award ceremony of the 10th MTV Movie Awards. Since the winners of this Popcorn Award are determined by the votes of ordinary viewers, the shortlist is full of popular works. Only here can you see the showdown of "Youth Idol VS Oscar Best Actor and Best Actress". Last year's " "High School Musical" was nominated for 5 awards and became a popular hit that year.

This year's "Juno", which is both "Oscar-level" and very popular among young people, is naturally a super hit. It has been nominated for Best Picture, Best Actor (Michael Pitt), Best Actress ( Natalie Portman), Best Screen Partner (Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway), Best Breakthrough Actor (Michael Pitt), Best Breakthrough Actress (Anne Hathaway) Wei) and Best Dance Scene (Natalie Portman) with 7 awards, leading the nomination list.

"High School Musical 2" also has one nomination for Best Dance Scene (Jessica Alba); and for "The Pursuit of Happyness", the Smiths share three nominations, one for Best Actor (Weirdos). Smith), Best Breakthrough Actor (Terry Smith) and Best Screen Partner (The Smiths).

The style of the MTV Awards ceremony is relaxed and funny, just like a lively party, so the guests attending will not dress too formally. Most of them wear fashionable casual clothes. Suits and evening gowns are not "big occasion" types. There are some eye-catching quirks, bold looks, and more. Wang Yang casually put on a black suit jacket and paired it with a T-shirt and casual pants; Jessica dressed up for a long time, but the final look was also casual clothes, matching him by wearing a white top and short skirt, with a ponytail. Large hoop earrings, simple and beautiful.

In front of the set up photography background and under the flashlights of reporters, Wang Yang first took countless photos with Jessica with a smile; then he took photos with Natalie, who was wearing a black top and slacks, with her hair shawl, and then with Anne. - Hathaway and others... After taking the photos, he was held up by the microphones of many reporters and answered their questions with a smile: "Everyone likes awards, haha, of course I am happy to get them, but we are here, originally I just came with a happy mood.”

Another blond female reporter smiled and asked: "Miracle Yang, some people say you have made a bad start. You have let everyone see the power of youth idols, and also let the organizers know how to attract more young people to pay attention to the MTV Movie Awards." Method. They say that in a few years, this place will completely become a stage for young people. What do you think?"

Looking at the seven or eight reporters, Wang Yang smiled and shrugged, and replied: "I don't know, maybe this is the original intention of the Popcorn Award? We already have many awards decided by 'professionals', and This place has its own unique charm, young, energetic, joyful, and it is up to the audience to decide..."

Both Jessica and Natalie were standing not far away, both looking at each other with faint smiles on their faces. Their eyes were unblinking and slowly narrowed, and there were vague sparks flying in the air. . But they were surrounded by fellow guests and media reporters, so neither of them spoke.

"Jesse, you look so good in this style." Natalie broke the silence and smiled softly. Jessica looked nonchalant and said with a smile: "You too." Seeing Natalie smiling and saying nothing, after a while, she couldn't help but asked softly: "Why?" Natalie glanced at her and said, She pretended to be confused and said: "Why?" She smiled slightly, then leaned into Jessica's ear, and said seriously in a lowered voice: "Because he is very good and I like him."

Of course he is very good... Looking at this delicate face in front of her, Jessica felt calm and said confidently: "Nata, you have no chance." Natalie laughed and hugged Jesse intimately. Stuck body, he smiled and said: "Well, it's just a year late... Sisters, if I had known this, I would have run to San Francisco when I was 13 years old. At that time, I was an elf who fell into the world. That was my world."

Jessica also laughed inexplicably, and hugged her shoulders, saying: "No, sister, you still don't have a chance. If you had known it, and I had known it, I would have run back to San Francisco. And I'm sorry, I 8 I’ve known him since I was 20 years old, and he’s still my world.”

"Ah ha, you win." Natalie smiled and patted Jessica on the back, and did not continue the bickering. Although she could keep talking until she "wins", what's the point? It wouldn't do her any good to break the current situation, and she wouldn't fall for this Catholic girl's deception.

The intimate behavior of the two finally attracted the attention of reporters. There were gossips in the market that they had a falling out because of Miraculous Yang. It seems that this is not the case... Jessica and Natalie over there saw someone. Several reporters came over and tacitly ended those topics, regaining their faint smiles.

The auditorium of the Shenandoah Theater was decorated in a fancy and lively manner, with lights of various colors flashing alternately from time to time. The seats were packed with movie fans in the back, and guests in attendance, including Tom Cruise and Jim Kay, sat in the front. Rui, Julia Roberts, Hugh Jackman, Kate Hudson... and other celebrities who may or may not have been nominated for awards; Wang Yang and Jessica, Natalie, Michael Pitt, etc. Members of "Juno" and Will Smith's family were sitting together; not far away were Tom Welling, Zachary and others with their girlfriends.

At this time, the ceremony has entered the final stage. Among the several awards awarded previously, the popcorn trophy for the best dance scene was won by Jessica. When she gave her acceptance speech on the stage, she shouted excitedly and affectionately: " "Yang, I love you" caused all the fans in the audience to scream.

The Smiths and his son won the award for Best Screen Partner; and the super hit "Juno" has won the Best Breakthrough Actor/Actress out of 7 nominations, and the other two awards that it did not win, They all lost to "our own people".

Next came the remaining and most important three awards. Amid the screams and cheers of the fans, the MTV mascot handed the popcorn trophy for Best Actor to Will Smith. He was full of joy. With a happy smile on his face, he walked on stage with his family to express his thanks. After another movie trailer and guest performance were played, the host in charge of awarding the Best Actress award, Kirsten Dunst, smiled and announced: "The Best Actress is Natalie Portman. "Juno"

"Oh wow -" the fans at the scene suddenly shouted wildly, and Kirsten Dunst walked quickly to the side of the stage while covering her ears with laughter. At the guest table, Natalie stood up with a smile on her face. Wang Yang, Jessica and others around her were not surprised. Juno could not beat Erin Brockovich at the Oscars; but here, this year Juno won No's popularity is unmatched.

Amid the laughter and applause of Wang Yang and others, Natalie walked onto the stage. She took the popcorn trophy, looked at the audience, nearly 20,000 guests and viewers, and said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you very much. For this award, I am most grateful to the fans who support me." Before she finished speaking, the auditorium was once again filled with the screams of fans. She continued with a smile: "Thank you to the organizers of MTV, Thank you to all the cast and crew of "Juno"..."

"Also, that guy who is indispensable." She said and looked down the stage, looking at Wang Yang who was smiling, wide-eyed and shaking his head, and then she glanced at the smiling Jie next to him. Sika glanced at it and said with a smile: "Yes, thank you Wang Yang. Well, that's that handsome guy. Give him a shot." The big screen behind her immediately showed a close-up of Wang Yang, and the fans shouted again.

Natalie raised the trophy in her hand and shouted with a smile: "Yang, I have wanted to say this on stage for a long time. You are a monster." Looking at Wang Yang in the audience, he smiled and made a face. She smiled and said: "Thank you, everyone, guys, I love you." After that, she and Jessica looked at each other again, their eyes narrowed, and the sparks in the air were like explosions. .

Amid the screams of the fans and the applause of everyone, Natalie returned to the guest seat holding the trophy. The party also came to the presentation of the last award "Best Picture". The five nominations were "X-Men", "Uncompromising", "Juno", "Gladiator" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

On the stage, Kirsten Dunst said reluctantly to the guest Rob Schneider: "It's the last moment again. I really don't want to award this award, then the party will not end." Rob Schneider said. -Schneider urged excitedly: "Hurry up and award the award. One of the films was played by me. I think it will win the award." There was a low laugh from the audience, and Kirsten asked in confusion. Said: "What? Did you act in one of them? Which one?"

"Yes, I play a very good father in it." Rob Schneider nodded very seriously, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "There is a bastard kid who made my daughter's belly bigger. You Just take a look and you'll find out." As he said that, he and Kirsten Dunst walked to the side of the stage with a smile, and the fans started shouting. They all knew that they had watched another movie spoof clip.

Parody videos are a tradition at the MTV Movie Awards. They usually focus on the most popular movies of the year, but sometimes TV series and old movies are also included. The content of spoofs is very varied. It can be a montage of sounds and images, which can be edited to achieve hilarious effects; there can also be someone (usually a host or a guest performer) who replaces the protagonist to imitate, or replaces other characters. Talk to the protagonist again, etc. This year's spoof movie targets have already been "Cast Away", "Gladiator", there is also a short film with a guest appearance by Britney Spears, and now it is "Juno".

It was played on the big screen, and Rob Schneider was seen sitting on the sofa, and next to him was Juno's stepmother, who naturally replaced Juno's father. His eyes widened in shock, and he shouted: "What, you're pregnant? Who did it? I'm going to kill him." The screen switched to a close-up of Natalie, who had a casual expression and said with a shrug: "Well, uh..." She turned to look at Anne Hathaway over there and said, "Pauly. But in fact it's me..."

"I did it." At this time, the picture on the screen suddenly changed, and Wang Yang's cool close-up appeared. The whole audience burst into laughter with "haha", and the laughter and screams of the fans were like a The planes flying overhead were deafening. The Will Smiths, Tom Welling, Zachary, Anne Hathaway, Michael Pitt... everyone was so happy that they laughed so much that they could hardly breathe.

Natalie burst out laughing a long time ago and slapped Wang Yang's arm next to her several times; Wang Yang covered his forehead, but looking at himself on the screen, he couldn't help laughing; Jesse next to him Kaya smiled toothily, no one would care about this prank.

This is exactly the guest scene of Wang Yang in "High School Musical 2", plus the voice extracted from an unknown interview, and edited together with the scenes of "Juno", it becomes a new story. On the screen, Rob Schneider stood up angrily and said: "It turns out it's you and I..." At this time, his voice-over suddenly sounded: "That kid who got rich is Magic Yang... Juno, good job "He said with a serious face: "Let me ask you, are you responsible? Marry my daughter?"

On the screen, Wang Yang still looked cool and said the original line of "High School Musical 2" calmly: "Of course not, you idiot." Rob Schneider took a deep breath in shock and said angrily: "I'm going to kill you" the voice-over sounded again: "But he knows kung fu... forget it." The scene changed to the light kung fu in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", then the hand-to-hand combat in "Gladiator", and The powers of "X-Men"...

Rob Schneider shuddered, sat down on the sofa slumped, and asked: "Juno, what should we do now?" Natalie still looked casual and spread her hands and said: "I already have it. Planned..."

The laughter in the Xuelan Theater was wave after wave, and the fans kept cheering. The spoof video only lasted about 3 minutes, so it came to the end very quickly. In the hospital, Juno looked at the baby she had just given birth to with soft eyes. At this time, Rob Schneider walked out from the side of the stage. He was holding a doll baby in his hand and sighed: "Did you see that? That heartless bastard."

The audience laughed again, and he suddenly found an envelope from the swaddle in confusion. He took it out, opened it, and said, "There is something on it that says, 'The Best Video of the 2001 MTV Movie Awards is... Wow. , my daughter, "Juno"

"Ahhh——" The fans at the scene suddenly burst into unprecedented crazy shouts, and many people shouted in unison: "Juno, Juno", "Natalie, Natalie" , "Magic Yang, Magic Yang..."

Amid the applause and congratulations of the people around him, Wang Yang smiled and kissed Jessica, then stood up and hugged Natalie, Michael Pitt and other "Juno" members in celebration before heading to the stage. Go.

Taking the bucket of popcorn trophy from the mascot, Wang Yang looked back at the crowded audience and those familiar smiling faces, glanced back at the big screen behind him, and said with a smile: "The video just now was very good. I'm talking about my acting skills." There was a soft laugh in the audience, and he continued to laugh: "Why didn't I get a nomination for Best Breakthrough Actor? Or should we set up a 'Best Cameo Award'? I."

Listening to the crazy shouting of the fans, Wang Yang smiled, looked in their direction, and thanked: "Thank you to everyone who likes and supports "Juno". You are the motivation for filmmakers and I have many people to thank." , the organizers of the MTV Movie Awards, the entire crew of "Juno", Valle Pfister, David Lawrence...it is because of them that "Juno" is what it is today."

After thanking everyone, he said calmly: "I would also like to thank my girlfriend Jessica, my family, and my kung fu master. They support me and love me at all times. This It's really the most beautiful thing in the world, thank you." After that, he smiled, raised the trophy, and walked off the stage amidst applause and shouts.

Jessica, who had a sweet smile on her face, clapped her hands vigorously and glanced at Natalie next to her; Natalie returned her smile. Jessica ignored her and stood up with a smile and walked towards Wang Yang who had returned in triumph.

In the end, "Juno" took away 4 buckets of popcorn; and Flame Films won 7 of the 13 awards at this year's MTV Movie Awards, including the most important ones: Best Picture, Best Actor/Female The actor, arguably, had a big win, sweeping this year's MTV Movie Awards

The award ceremony ended in a joyful atmosphere, and Wang Yang and others were also preparing to go to the hotel to hold a celebration party. Backstage at the bustling Shenandoah Theater, everyone was laughing and talking about tonight's ceremony. Wang Yang's cell phone suddenly vibrated. He took it out and saw it was his mother, so he told Jessica, Natalie, Michael and others He answered, walked to the side to answer the call, and said with a smile: "Hi, good news, Mom, we won 7 awards, including Best Picture, Best..."

"Uh...oh, what?" His face suddenly changed, his brows furrowed tightly, and he asked urgently: "How could this happen? Mom, he was fine last month, I...I'll go back right away." He silently turned off the phone, his face full of confusion. How could this happen? Although the master was almost 90 years old... but they were practicing boxing together last month, why suddenly he couldn't do it anymore?

Thinking of this word, his heart suddenly clenched uncomfortably. The joy of winning the award was long gone. Is Old Man Wu going to die? That stern, kind old man Wu who taught him Kung Fu and how to behave... is going to die? His eyes turned red, and he cursed with a choked voice: "**,**..." He turned around and saw everyone looking at him with confusion and concern.

"Guys..." Wang Yang took a deep breath and moved his lips several times but was speechless. He scratched his hair helplessly and said: "I have to go back to San Francisco now. My master...he I’m dying,**” As he said that, he ran outside.

"Oh, my God" everyone was stunned for a moment, is he about to die? In other words... Jessica's eyes widened when she reacted, and her heart hurt like a knife. She quickly chased after her, shouting: "Yangyang..."

Looking at the figures running out one after another, Natalie frowned tightly, resisting the urge to rush out with her feet, and let out a long sigh.
